Objective To observe the influence of different doses of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) on function of T cells in cord blood of premature infants and to explore the immunomodulating mechanism of IVIG.Methods Cord blood mononuclear cells (CBMC) were isolated by density gradient centrifugation method from 15 preterm infants born between June 1,2011 to December 31,2011 at 32 34 gestational weeks.Three groups were formed according to the concentrations of IVIG used for CMBC culturing in vitro (Group A,6 mg/ml; Group B,9 mg/ml; Group C,12 mg/ml).After 72 hours in sterile conditions,the levels of IFN 7,IL 4,IL-10 and TGF β1 in the supernatant were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.The expression of CD4+ CD25+ Foxp3+ Treg cells was examined by fluorescent activated cell sorter.Differences among groups were compared by one way analysis of variance.For comparison between two groups,LSD test was used.Results (1) The level of IFN γ secreted by CBMC in Group C was 0.03 ± 0.02,which was much lower than that in Group A(0.18±0.08) and Group B(0.13±0.05) (F=5.72,both P<0.01).The level of IFN-γ in Group B and Group A did not show statistical difference (P>0.05).Compared with Group A(0.03±0.01),the level of IL4 was much lower in Group B (0.02±0.01) and Group C(0.01±0.01) (F=20.38,both P<0.01),while no significant difference was shown between Group B and Group C (P>0.05).(2) No significant difference was found in the expression of CD4+CD25+Foxp3+Treg cells among different groups (F 0.67,P>0.05).(3) The level of IL 10 in Group C was 3.02 ± 3.79,which was significantly lower than that in Group A (10.78±5.44) and Group B (6.90±4.64)(F=4.68,P<0.01 and 0.05).The level of IL-10 inGroup B was still lower than that in Group A (P<0.05).The levels of TGF-β1 in Group C(8.44± 13.71) and Group B(16.15 ±13.94) were significantly lower than that in Group A(30.23 ± 16.32) (F=5.22,P<0.01,P<0.05),but there was no significant difference between Group B and Group C (P>0.05).Conclusions IVIG might inhibit the function of Th cells in CBMC of preterm infants in a dose dependent manner.IVIG could inhibit the function of natural Treg cells by regulating the secretion of cytokines IL-10 and TGF-β1 in a dose dependent effect.

Objective To construct a chimeric infectious clone of the fatal virulent strain SDLY 107, containing the gene fragments encoding 2A and 3B proteins of the mild virulent strain SDLY 1, and to establish a reverse genetic system platform for further investigation on virulence of enterovirus 71 strains. Methods The overlap PCR analysis was performed to obtain the gene fragments encoding 2A and 3B pro-teins of the mild virulent strain SDLY 1.The obtained gene fragments were digested and then cloned into a plasmid pMD19-T containing the full-length gene of SDLY 107 strain by using gene replacement strategy. The recombinant RNA was transfected into Vero cells for the preparation of recombinant virus particles.Sev-eral assays including the PCR, indirect immunofluorescence ( IFA) , Western blot and sequencing were per-formed for virus identification.Virus titers were measured by 50%cell culture infective dose ( CCID50 ) and plaque assay.Results The infectious clones of SDLY 107-2A-1 and SDLY 107-3B-1 chimeric virus strains were constructed successfully.Typical cytopathic effect was observed in Vero cells after viral transfection. Identification of the rescued viruses by PCR, IFA, Western blot and sequencing further confirmed the suc-cessful construction of infectious virus strains.The virus titers of SDLY 107-2A-1 and SDLY 107-3B-1 strains detected by CCID50 and plaque assay were 1.25 ×105 PFU/ml and 0.7 ×105 PFU/ml, respectively. Conclusion The chimeric viruses SDLY 107-2A-1 and SDLY 107-3B-1 were rescued successfully, causing cytopathic effects similar to those by using the parental virus strain SDLY 107.This study might pave the way for further investigation on in vitro and in vivo virulence of enterovirus 71 strains.

Objective:To study the impact of simultaneous ligation of splenic artery on prognosis of patients with severe hypersplenism in liver transplantation.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of 206 patients who underwent liver transplantation in the Fifth Medical Center of PLA General Hospital from December 2016 to February 2019. There were 180 males and 26 females, aged (51.0±9.0) years old. Fifty-one patients underwent splenic artery ligation during liver transplantation and they were enrolled into the observation group, and 155 patients without splenic artery ligation were enrolled into the control group. The changes in white blood cells (WBC), platelets, alanine aminotransferase, total bilirubin and serum creatinine as well as the incidence of postoperative complications were compared between the two groups.Results:The platelet count of the observation group was significantly lower than those of the control group before operation and on days 1, 3, 7, 30 and 90 after operation, (all P<0.05). The WBC counts in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group before operation and on days 1 and 3 after operation (all P<0.05). However, there were no significant differences in the WBC counts between the two groups on days 5, 7, 30 and 90 after operation (all P>0.05). There were also no significant differences in alanine aminotransferase and total bilirubin indexes between the two groups after surgery (all P>0.05), but the serum creatinine levels in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group on days 3, 5, 7 and 30 after surgery (all P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the rates of infection, severe acute rejection, biliary tract complications, arterial/portal thrombosis and mental complications between the two groups (all P>0.05). The rate of renal replacement therapy for acute kidney injury in the observation group (9.8%, 5/55) was significantly higher than that in the control group (1.3%, 2/155) ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Ligation of splenic artery during liver transplantation was safe and it had a significant advantage in the early postoperative recovery of WBC count and creatinine without increasing the incidence of complications in patients with severe hypersplenism.

Objective:
To discuss the success rate and image quality in pediatric patients who used chloral hydrate before their cone beam computed tomography exam.
Methods:
1752 patients aged 1 to 6 were selected for this retrospective study. They were divided into sedated group (219 cases) and non-sedated group (1 533 cases). The success rate and image quality were compared between two groups.
Results:
The sedated group had a higher success rate to non-sedated group: 99.5%(218/219) vs. 90.4% (1 386/1 533). The motion artifact in sedated group was lower than non- sedated group with I degree: 4.8% (15/314) vs. 20.1%(327/1 630) and II degree: 0.3%(1/314) vs. 12.2%(199/1 630).
Conclusion
Giving chloral hydrate to pediatric patients before their CBCT exam would improve both success rate and image quality, and reduce unnecessary radiation expose.
