The Nano ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry tandem mass spectrometry(UPLC-ESI-MS/MS) was used to characterize the primary protein. Samples were digested by trypsin, followed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry analysis and database search. Five peptides matched with tumor necrosis factor receptor and seven peptides matched with human IgG1 fragment of the Fc. Further analysis demonstrated that seven peptides all matched with the IgG1 Fc but only partly peptides matched with the other subtypes. RhTNFR:Fc is fused by IgG1 Fc but not other subtypes.

AIM: Ischemic post-conditioning ( PC) plays an important role in cardioprotection from ischemia /reperfusion ( I/R) injury in the young heart but not in the aging hearts .The physiological and pathological roles of hydrogen sulfide ( H2 S) in the regulation of cardio-vascular functions have been recognized .Whether H2 S is involved in the recovery of PC-induced cardioprotection in the aging hearts is unclear.METHOD:The male Wistar young rats (3-month-old), the aging rats (24-month-old), primary cultured cardiomyocytes and the aging cardiomyocytes induced by D-galactose suffered from I/R (or H/R) and PC.RESULTS:I/R (or H/R) decreased H2S production rate and cystathionine γ-lyase (CSE) expression, aggravated cardiomyocyte damage , apoptosis, myocardial infarct size and oxidative stress, reduced cardiac function, increased the levels of Bcl-2, cleaved caspase-3 and caspase-9 mRNA and proteins, promo-ted the release of cytochrome c and mPTP opening, down-regulated the phosphorylation of ERK 1/2, PI3K, Akt and GSK-3βand mito-chondrial membrane potential , up-regulated the phosphorylation of IκBα, NF-κB, JNK2 and STAT3, and inhibited PKC-ε transloca-tion and mitochondrial ATP-sensitive K channels (mitoKATP) in isolated young and aging hearts as well as normal and aging cardiomyo-cytes.PC suppressed myocardial I/R injury in the young heart but not in the aging hearts .Supply of NaHS not only increased PC-in-duced cardioprotection in the young hearts and cardiomyocytes , but also attenuated I/R injury and significantly recovered the cardiopro-tective role of PC in the aging hearts and cardiomyocytes .CONCLUSION:The exogenous H 2 S restores PC-induced cardioprotection through inhibiting oxidative stress via the down-regulation of NF-κB and JAK2-STAT3 pathways and mPTP opening by the up-regulation of ERK1/2-GSK-3β, PI3K-Akt-GSK-3βand PKC-ε-mitoKATP pathways in the aging hearts and cardiomyocytes .These findings provide a novel potential target for the treatment of aging ischemic cardiomyopathy .

Synchronous multiple primary carcinomas refers to 2 or more than 2 kinds of different primary malignant tumors develop synchronously or in 6 months.The incidence of synchronous multiple primary carcinoma is low.A patient with esophageal basaloid squamous cell carcinoma (BSCC) and gastric adenocarcinoma was admitted to the First People's Hospital of Lianyungang in October 2011.The main symptom of this patient was dysphagia,and multiple lesions were found in esophagus,cardia and stomach fundus by gastroscopy respectively.On computed tomography image,eminence lesion in esophageal midpiece and wall thickening from esophagus-cardia to stomach fundus were displayed and were both enhanced slightly by enhancement scanning.The esophageal and cardia tumors were resected via left thoracic approach,and postoperative pathological examination revealed esophageal BSCC and moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma of cardia respectively.Comedo necrosis and red basal membrane material were seen under light microscope.The expressions of cytokeratin 5/6 and P63 were positive,the expression of cytokeratin L was weak positive and the expressions of synaptophysin,chromogranin A and CD117 were negative.The patient suffered from pleural effusion and multiple liver metastases after 4 months follow-up and died of liver metastases in May 2012.Multiple primary carcinomas including esophageal BSCC and gastric adenocarcinoma are rarely seen in clinical practice.Their diagnosis and differential diagnosis mainly depend on histological morphology and immunohistochemical method.Surgical resection combined with postoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy is selectable,but the prognosis is poor.

Objective To discuss the clinical characteristics of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and coronary artery lesion fea-tures for Uygur nationality and Han nationality in Xinjiang Dushanzi area .Methods The AMI patients during hospitalization from January 2005 to January 2012 were divide into two groups ,Group A(Uygur nationality ,n=40) and Group B(Han nationality ,n=130) ,and compared the aspects of risk factors ,morbidity situation and electrocardiogram changes etc ,carried out the coronary an-glography and analyzed the coronary artery lesion features of patients in two groups .Results The two groups of patients are male-dominated ,the AMI incidence of Uygur patients was higher than Han nationality before 60 years old(P<0 .01);More morbidities of Uygur nationality were related with the alcohol drinking (32 .5% ) ,mood disorders (40 .0% ) ,diabetes (52 .5% ) and hyperlipi-demia(72 .5% )(P<0 .01) ,and mainly coronary artery lesions were three blood vessels (P< 0 .05) .The Han nationality patients with high blood pressure have more proportion (P<0 .05) ,mainly coronary artery lesions were single blood vessel (P<0 .05) .No significant differences were observed after comparing the location of infarction and related infarction blood vessels of patients in two groups .Conclusion The onset age of Uygur AMI patients in Xinjiang Dushanzi area is younger ,and the coronary artery disease is worse .It is necessary to improve the lifestyles and change unhealthy eating habits and to carry out the active intervention in early stage .

OBJECTIVETo describe and evaluate a double-antigen sandwich ELISA for detecting human immunodeficiency virus type 1/2 (HIV-1/2) specific antibodies.

METHODSThe peptides gp41.1(sp1), gp41.2(sp2), gp120(sp3) and p24(sp4) of HIV-1 and gp36(sp5) of HIV-2 were artificially synthesized. Then sp1, sp3, sp4 and sp5 were used as coating antigens; sp1, sp2, sp4 and sp5 labeled with HRP were used as conjugates in this sandwich ELISA.

RESULTSThe specificity and sensitivity of the assay were both 100% in detecting anti-HIV of 40 control sera of the second generation panel, higher than indirect ELISA (specificity 90% and sensitivity, 65%, respectively). All of 210 sera from individuals with other diseases were negative for anti-HIV. The consistency rate was 100% when our sandwich ELISA and Abbott HIVAB were used to detect anti-HIV in 90 healthy blood donors and 88 HIV infected individuals.

CONCLUSIONSThe results showed that this sandwich ELISA for detection of anti-HIV is specific, sensitive and convenient, and it is suitable for screening blood donors and detecting HIV infection.

Objective To discuss the relationship between the injury patterns of medial patellofemoral ligament(MPFL) and injury degrees of vastus medialis obliquus(VMO) after acute patellar dislocation(PD). Methods Knee joint MRI was performed in 79 patients with acute PD. Images were acquired and evaluated using standardised protocols. Injury patterns of MPFL were grouped by severity (partial tear and complete tear)and location (isolated patellar-side tear (PAT), isolated femoral-side tear (FEM) and combined tear (COM) ) for analysis of the prevalence of VMO injury. The VMO elevation was calculated on sagittal and coronal planes. Results The prevalence rates of MPFL tear and VMO lesion were 96.2%(76/79)and 54.4%(43/79)after acute PD.The prevalence rate of VMO lesion was 40.6%(13/32)and 68.2%(30/44)in the partial and complete MPFL tear subgroups,respectively.Complete MPFL tear subgroup showed higher prevalence rate of VMO lesion when compared with partial tear subgroup(χ2=5.727, P=0.017). The prevalence rates of VMO lesion in the PAT, FEM and COM subgroups were 31.8% (7/22), 67.7% (21/31) and 70% (14/20), respectively. There were statistically significant differences among them(χ2=8.549,P=0.014).About the mean VMO elevation,there were statistically significant differences between the complete and partial MPFL tear subgroups, the FEM and PAT subgroups, and the COM and PAT subgroups (P=0.00). Conclusions Compared with partial MPFL tear, complete tear predisposes to VMO lesion and has a higher elevation of the torn VMO after acute PD.The femoral-sided and combined MPFL tears predispose to VMO lesion and have higher elevations of the torn VMO.

Objective:To investigate the incidence of social isolationin community elderly patients with knee osteoarthritis and analyze its influencing factors.Methods:From January to April 2021, 240 community elderly with knee osteoarthritis in three community health service centers in Taiyuan (Yingbin community, Dawang community and Pingyang second community) were selected as research objects by convenient sampling method. They were investigated by general data questionnaire, Lubben Social Network Scale-6(Lubben-6), Geriatric Depression Scale-15, Perceived Social Support Scale, Numerical Rating Scale. Single factor analysis and binary Logistic regression analysis were used to explore the influencing factors of social isolation in elderly patients with knee osteoarthritis.Results:The prevalence of social isolation among community elderly patients with knee osteoarthritis was 43.33% (104/240) . The results of binary logistic regression analysis showed that age ( OR = 2.228, 95% CI 1.436-3.457), complicated diseases ( OR = 1.733, 95% CI 1.028-2.919), exercise ( OR = 0.560, 95% CI 0.360-0.869), depression ( OR = 3.603, 95% CI 1.768-7.339), comprehension of social support ( OR = 0.424, 95% CI 0.253-0.710) and pain ( OR = 1.792, 95% CI 1.147-2.799) were the influencing factors of social isolation in elderly patients with knee osteoarthritis ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The degree of social isolation in community elderly patients with knee osteoarthritis is relatively high, and is affected by many factors. Community medical staff should formulate targeted nursing intervention plans based on their influencing factors to reduce the occurrence of social isolation.

Objective To investigate the present situation of midwifery and the appropriate technical application of midwifery in Henan Province.Methods Using convenience sampling method,questionnaire survey was conducted among 32 tertiary hospitals,47 secondary hospitals and 11 primary hospitals via the platform of midwifery section of Henan Province nursing association.Results For hospitals of different levels in Henan Province,the training rate of midwives was (19.55±20.28)％,80.2％ of the hospitals mentioned there was a need to increase midwives,the rates of natural delivery and perineal side cutting were (50.84±12.16)％ and (40.14±21.15)％,and there were significant differences in the rates of natural delivery and perineal side cutting among hospitals of different levels(P＜0.05).The proportion of application of appropriate techniques of midwifery was as follows:Doula delivery was 49.4％,labor in liberal position was 35.8％,epidural anesthesia was 56.8％,water birth was 4.9％,Lamaze breathing was 60.5％,and music therapy was 24.7％;the main reason for no Doula delivery was the shortage of midwives (75.6％),and the reasons for no labor in liberal position were the midwife had not been trained(57.7％) and there was safety hazard (57.7％).Conclusion The rate of standardized training for midwives was low,and there was a need of increasing midwives in hospitals of all levels in Henan Province.The appropriate technologies of midwifery need to be popularized,and the hospital should strengthen the training of related knowledge and skills for midwives in order to improve work ability,pronote natural delivery,and enhance application of appropriate techniques of midwifery.
