Objective:To prepare the velvet antler polypeptide-collagen/chitosan composite materials,and to investigate its promotive effect on cicatrization of mandibular defect and possible mechanism.Methods:The collagen and chitosan solution were mixed.The composite material was prepared by glutaraldehyde crosslinking method.The microstructure of the composite material was observed by transmission electron microscope (SEM).The unilateral mandibular defect models of 36 rabbits were established.The rabbits were divided into experiment and control groups,and each group was divided into 4-,8-and 12-week subgroups,and there were 6 rabbits in each sub group.The rabbits in experiment group were implanted with velvet antler polypeptide-collagen /chitosan composite materials and the rabbits in control group were treated.4,8 and 12 weeks after operation,the histology of bone defect and peripheral nerve reconstruction of the rabbit models were detected by CT;the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in bone tissue of the rabbits was detected by immunohistochemistry;the ultrastructure of bone defect was observed by SEM.Results:The structure of composite materials had layered folds and the inner diameter of the stent became larger and mainly dominated by sheet structure,which was the ideal structure of biological materials.4 weeks after operation,the new bone was formatted in experiment group,most of the new bone like-tissue materials were degraded,and the VEGF expression showed an increasing trend;8 weeks after operation,the trabecular bone in the bone defect of the rabbits in experiment group was increased obviously and the expression of VEGF was decreased.12 weeks after operation,the new bone formation and the density in experiment group was consistent with the normal tissue,and the expression level of VEGF returned to normal.At each the point after operation,the degree of bone defect healing and bone formation rate in experiment group were obviously prior to control group.Conclusion:Velvet antler polypeptide-collagen /chitosan composite material has the promotive effect on the fracture healing of mandibular defect of the rabbits and its possible mechanism may be related to promoting the expression of VEGF.

OBJECTIVE:To compare the economics of interferon α1b and α2b in the treatment of chronic hepatitis C. METH-ODS:By retrospective study,114 patients with chronic hepatitis C who received interferon were selected,60 patients received interfer-on α1b were divided into group A and 54 patients received interferon α2b were divided into group B. Negative conversion rate of HCV-RNA,normalization rate of ALT and the incidence of ADR in 2 groups were compared,and pharmacoeconomic analysis was conducted. RESULTS:Negative conversion rates of HCV-RNA in group A in 4,12,24,36,48 weeks were 55.00%,71.67%, 63.33%,61.67% and 65.00%,group B were 64.81%,66.67%,62.96%,55.56% and 61.11%,respectively,there were no signifi-cant differences between 2 groups (P>0.05);after treatment,normalization rate of ALT in group A was 95.23%,group B was 96.10%,there was no significant difference between 2 groups(P>0.05);and there were no significant differences in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups (P>0.05),so cost-minimization analysis was used to evaluate pharmacoeconomics. Therapy cost in group A was 13 216.56 yuan,group B was 7 929.60 yuan,group B was lower to group A;sensitivity analysis received the same results. CON-CLUSIONS:Interferonα2b is more economical thanα1b in the treatment of chronic hepatitis C.

Allergic diseases such as allergic asthma, allergic der-matitis, allergic rhinitis, are polygenic diseases, involving the interaction between the environment, genes and immunity. In the past few decades, the incidence rate of allergic diseases in-creased predominantly and influenced the quality of people's lives seriously, so looking for new targets for the prevention and treat-ment of allergic diseases and drugs with less adverse reaction be-comes a hot topic for researchers. MicroRNAs(miRNAs)are a class of endogenous non-coding small RNAs that mediate nega-tively posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression by targe-ting specific mRNA sequences to inhibit the translation of mR-NAs. They are widely involved in the biological processes of cell differentiation, immune response and tumor development. The study shows that miRNAs can control the occurrence and devel-opment of allergic diseases. Studying the regulatory role of miR-NAs in allergic diseases has important implications for exploring the immunopathological mechanisms and discovering new thera-peutic targets of drugs.

OBJECTIVE:
To analyze the phenotype and genetic variant of a fetus with dysplasia of cerebellar vermis.
METHODS:
Gestational status and family history of the gravida was taken in combination with the imaging results of the fetus. Following elected abortion, fetal tissue and peripheral blood samples of the couple were collected for the extraction of genome DNA. Whole exome sequencing was carried out to screen potential variant associated with the phenotype of the proband. Specific PCR primers were designed to verify the results by Sanger sequencing.
RESULTS:
Prenatal ultrasound revealed that the fetal vermis cerebellum was poorly developed, which was similar to the previous pregnancy. Whole exome sequencing revealed that the fetus has carried compound heterozygous variants of the CPLANE1 gene, namely c.7978C>T and c.7169delT, which were respectively inherited from the husband and wife.
CONCLUSION
The c.7978C>T and c.7169delT compound heterozygous variants of the CPLANE1 gene probably underlay the dysplasia of cerebellar vermis in the fetus, which has provided a basis for genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis.

Objective To evaluate the methods in early warning of schistosomiasis and elimination of snails in an ecological public forest in Yexie Town of Songjiang District, and provide the basis for monitoring and controlling snails in forest land in the future. Methods The monitoring data of snails, schistosomiasis and snail elimination in the public forest were collected to evaluate the effect of controlling snails. Results The area with existence of snails was found to be 10.47 hm2, and it was decreased by 98.28% after three times of snail elimination.A total of 1 904 serological tests was performed (test rate of 88.76%) with the positive rate of 0.16%.Pathogenic test result was negative in 3 subjects examined.Serological samples of 11 dogs and 1 sheep were all negative for the test.None of the 1 480 live snails tested was found to be positive in infection.The awareness rate of schistosomiasis control knowledge and behavior formation in 275 students were 98.2% and 95.3%, respectively. Conclusion The snails in the public forest in Yexie Town have been effectively controlled, but there are still scattered living snails.The measures in eliminating and monitoring of snails should be continued and strengthened.

Objective:
To analyse the genomic characteristics of Novirus(NoV) GII.4 genotype JN010 strain isolated form Jinan in 2017.
Methods:
Seven pairs of primers were designed and used to amplify the JN010 genome. Sequence analyses, alignment and phylogenetic trees of ORF1 and ORF2 genes were performed using the software Lasergene7.1 and MEGA5.2. At the same time the major protein VP1 amino acid mutations were analyzed.
Results:
The 7 516 bp complete genome sequence of JN010 strain was obtained, the most mutation sites were located in P2 subdomain of VP1. Two substitutions I293N and H373N of VP1 were locate neighboring epitope A, and R297H mutation happened within epitope A and the site A that binding with histo-blood group antigens(HBGAs). The JN010 strain was GII.Pe/GII.4 genotype and genetically closest to the strains found in Osaka of Japan(GenBank accession number LC066046) and the strains in Zhongshan city of Guangdong (GenBank accession number KY407064) respectively according to ORF1 and ORF2 gene homologous and phylogenetic analysis.
Conclusions
The NoV GII.4 variant strain JN010 has occurred mutations in the key site of the epitope A and site A that bind with HBGAs, and maybe affect its antigenicity and interaction with HBGAs.
