Objective To investigate the prevalence and risk factors of metabolic syndrome (MS) in residents in Pudong New District of Shanghai. MethodsA total of 5 584 residents aged 20-80 years were randomly selected from Pudong New District of Shanghai through multistage sampling and interviewed from April to July of 2008. Metabolic syndrome was defined according to three diagnostic criteria for MS, issued by the modified National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel Ⅲ criteria ( NCEP-ATP Ⅲ ), International Diabetes Federation (IDF), and Chinese Diabetes Society (CDS). ResultsThe crude prevalences of MS in the adult population in Pudong New District were 18.2％ and 13.1％ standardized ( male 19. 1％, female 17.4％, the age-standardized 15.6％ and 13.2％ ) with CDS criterion, 31.8％ and 24.4％ standardized ( male 28.4％ ,female 35.1％ ,the agestandardized 22. 7％ and 25.0％ ) with NCEP-ATP Ⅲ criterion, and 21.7％ and 17.0％ standardized ( male 15.9％ ,female 26.7％, the age-standardized 13.8％ and 19.2％ ) with IDF criterion. The age-specific prevalence of MS increased according to three diagnostic criteria, and the age-adjusted prevalence was higher in males than females in junior age groups and higher in females than males in senior ones. Significant differences were present among region, education, marriage status, smoking, work intensity, recreation, and physical activity according to some diagnostic criteria. ConclusionsSubstantial proportions of adults in Pudong New District of Shanghai suffer from metabolic syndrome, and there exists a tendency for young people involved. MS has become a noteworthy public health problem. It suggests that community-integrated control strategy of MS should be made a priority.

Objective To investigate the effect of Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection on plasma lpid and high sensitive C reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels in patients with cerebral infarction, and explore the pathogenesy. Methods Seventy-nine cerebral infarction patients without nearly inflammatory reaction disease were recruited. Hp was detected by breath test,the patients were divided into infection-negative group (15 cases), light infection group (29 cases) and severe infection group(35 cases) according to the results,the last two groups were as infection-positive group. The plasma lipid and hs-CRP levels were exanined.Results Compared with infection-negative group,the total cholesterol,low density lipoprotein,hs-CRP levels increased obviously in infecton-positive group (P ＜ 0.05). The level of hs-CRP in severe infection group was higher than that in light infection group [(10.21 ±4.98) mg/L vs. (5.81 ±4.21) mg/L](P=0.001 ). Conclusions Hp infection may increase vascular inflammatory reaction through lipid metabolic disturbance. The cerebral infarction with higher Hp infection, and with the degree of infection increased, the risk is also increased accordingly.

AIM: To investigate the influence and mechanism of blue light on the proliferation of human retinal pigment epithelial cells.METHODS: Cells were divided into two groups,including blue light group and control group.The 35W white light lamp with blue filter was used to establish damaged RPE cell model in vitro.Blue ray wavelength ranged between 470nm and 520nm.And the light intensity was about 2000Lx.After exposure to blue light,we tested the proliferation of human retinal pigment epithelial cells by CCK-8 kit.And then expression of miR-103 was measured by the real-time PCR.RESULTS: Exposure to blue light inhibited the proliferation of human retinal pigment epithelial cells and increased the expression of miR-103.Moreover,up-regulation of miR-103 inhibited the proliferation of human retinal pigment epithelial cells,and down-regulates miR-103 promoted the proliferation of human retinal pigment epithelial cells.CONCLUSION: Blue light inhibits the proliferation of human retinal pigment epithelial cells by the up-regulation of miR-103.

BACKGROUND:Al ogeneic hematopoietic stem cel transplantation (HSCT) is one of the effective methods in the treatment of leukemia. The haploidentical HSCT is an option for the patients who need a HSCT without a human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched donor. OBJECTIVE:To study the clinical efficacy of HLA-haploidentical HSCT on leukemia and its complications. METHODS:A total of 23 patients (4 cases of acute lymphoblastic leukemia, 12 of acute myelogenous leukemia, and 7 of chronic granulocytic leukemia) who had been treated with HLA-haploidentical HSCT from November 2007 to March 2015 were enrol ed. Conditioning regimen I was set as cyclohexyl nitrosourea+cytarabine+busulfan+cyclophosphamide; regimen II as cyclophosphamide+total body irradiation;regimen III as fludarabine+cytarabine+busulfan+cyclophosphamide; and regimen IV as busulfan+cyclophosphamide. Cyclosporin A, mycophenlate mofetil, antithymocyte globulin and methotrexate were used to prevent graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Hematopoietic remodeling, complications and prognosis were observed in al patients undergoing HLA-haploidentical HSCT. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Of the 23 patients, 22 achieved reconstitution of the granulocyte series, and 19 achieved reconstruction of the megakaryocyte series. Additional y, there were 7 cases of acute GVHD and 4 of chronic GVHD. Transplant-related mortality was 22%(5/23) within 100 days post transplantation including graft failure, acute GVHD, intracranial hemorrhage and disseminated infections. There were 14 cases of disease-free survival from 100 days to 24 months post transplantation, 2 cases of death due to GVHD and fungal infection, or recurrence and chronic GVHD, and 2 cases of recurrence under treatment. These findings indicate that HLA-haploidentical HSCT is an effective approach for the treatment of patients with leukemia, which is worth further investigation in clinical practice.

Viral infections remain the common cause of morbidity and mortality in immunocompromised patients receiving allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).Virus antigens can be recognized by cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTL) in the context of HLA class Ⅰ molecules.T-cell-based immunotherapies are now being included in the clinical practice of transplant recipients to prevent and treat viral infections and complications associated with CMV,AdV and EBV.Here,the current status and future feasibility of CTL immunotherapy for virus infections after allo-HSCT are discussed.

ObjcetiveTo study the chimerism status ot bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSC) following double-unit cord blood stem cell transplantation (DCBT).MethodsBone marrow mononuclear cells were isolated by ficoll density gradient centrifugation from the patient following DCBT and healthy donors.After cultured for about 20 days,BMSC surface makers,the ability to differentiate into adipocytes and osteoblast and the expression of hematopoietic and immune molecules were detected,moreover,chimerism status of BMSC were also evaluated by STR-PCR.ResultsMSC derived from the patient were similar to normal adult BMSC in morphology,surface and differentiation ability.Besides,MSC from the patient can express a variety of hematopoietic and immune molecules normally.The results of STR-PCR showed that the patient demonstrated complete donor chimerism,hematopoiesis in BM and PB were from a single unit cord blood (donor chimerism was 96.4％ and 95.7％,respectively).But the predominant cord blood chimerism of BMSC was 5.4％,the remaining part was from the patient himself.ConclusionSustained hematopoiesis was derived from a single unit cord blood following DCBT.The majority of BMSC were origin from host tissue,mixed chimerism donor part of MSC stemed from the engrafted unit of cord blood.
