Objective To study the toxicity of Tripterygium Hypolaucun (Level) Hutch (THH). Methods The flow cytometry technique was used to measure the micronucleus (MN) formation and cell apoptosis of Jurkat, CHE and NIH3T3 cell lines induced by THH. Results THH could induce micronucleus formation and cell apoptosis of Jurkat, CHE and NIH3T3 cell lines. Quite similar changes were observed in three cell lines, but the Jurkat cells showed more sensitive than others. It was only 25 μl/plate THH that induced the high peak of MN formation at various time points, and only 50 μl/plate that induced the high peak of cell apoptosis. Conclusion The result indicates that THH has stronger toxicity to Jurkat cells than to CHE and NIH3T3 cells.

Objective To investigate the preliminary experience of mechanical thrombectomy with a tri-axial system of the Solitaire AB stent through a Neuro delivery catheter to treat intracranial large artery occlusion. Methods A tri-axial system was used to deliver the Solitaire AB stent through a Neuro delivery catheter to provide intracranial aspiration in close proximity to the stent. This technique was used in 1 case of acute middle cerebral artery occlusion and 1 case of acute basilar artery occlusion. Results Successful revascularization was achieved in these 2 cases. Thrombolysis in cerebral infarction (TICI)score was 3. The clot length of acute middle cerebral artery occlusion was 3 cm and the modified Rankin Scale (mRS)score of this case was 3 at 90 days follow-up. Another patient with acute bilateral vertebral occlusion was revealed successful recanalization by angiography. Conclusion The results suggest that this technique of a tri-axial system used of the Solitaire stent through a Neuro delivery catheter can effectively retrieve clots from the occlusive artery and minimize the chance of antegrade blood flow dislodging the thrombus.

Objective To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of the comprehensive control measures carrying out in schistosomia-sis endemic inner embankment of marshland and lake regions from 2006 to 2010,so as to provide the reference for further rational allocation of limited health resources and ultimately speeding up the procedure of schistosomiasis elimination. Methods With ref-erence to the requirements of the national schistosomiasis transmission control and phase goals for schistosomiasis control in Hubei Province,Jiangling County,one schistosomiasis control pilot of Hubei Province combined with the National Health and Family Planning Commission and Ministry of Agriculture,was selected for the study. A definition of the infection rates of human and do- mestic animals was used for endemic villages stratified by different layers(i.e.,the village with the infection rates of human and domestic animals ≥3% belonged to the first layer,≥ 1% belonged to the second layer;<1% belonged to the third layer). By us- ing the stratification method and cost-effectiveness analysis,the endemic villages stratified with the different layers were investi- gated and all the data of schistosomiasis endemic situation,cost and effectiveness of schistosomiasis control were collected and comprehensively analyzed from 2006 to 2010. Results In the effectiveness of schistosomiasis control,by the end of 2010, there were no first layer villages,there were 114 second layer villages,and there were 18 third layer villages in Jiangling Coun- ty. In the former first layer villages,the schistosomiasis patients decreased year by year ultimately to 0;but in the second and third layer villages,the schistosomiasis patients increased. In the fecal treatment and management,the coverage rates of harm- less sanitary latrines were 27.45% in 2009 and 48.74% in 2010 respectively in the second layer villages,whereas there were no harmless sanitary latrines in the first and third layer villages. In the 5 years,the input of comprehensive control measures was 10 266 3900 Yuan,much higher than the human and buffalo examinations and treatments,Oncomelania hupensis snail investi- gation and elimination(4 183 000 Yuan)and other labor inputs(2 239 500Yuan). In the ratio of cost-effectiveness,the annual ratio of unit cost(1% reduction of human and buffalo infection and 1 hm2 reduction of snail areas)increased yearly. In addition, the semi-logarithmic stability trend analysis of health inputs and cost showed that there was a stable balance between inputs and cost in the different layers(logarithmic values of any two layers of pair-wise comparison were <1,and in the third layer villages, the annual average logarithmic values of 5 years were <1). Whereas,in the first and second layer villages,the annual average cost was fluctuated(the costs was higher than the inputs). Conclusion The schistosomiasis situation is reduced year by year in Jiangling County from 2006 to 2010. Whereas,the main infection source(buffaloes)still exists and the present control mea- sures including fecal management should be further strengthened. In the resource allocation,in the field of health,the annual distribution of key inputs and unit-cost control also has a further space of adjustment.

Objective To analyze the spatial-time distribution characteristics of schistosomiasis in Jiangling County ,Hubei Province from 2006 to 2011. Methods The surveillance data of schistosomiasis of Jiangling County from 2006 to 2011 were col-lected,and a spatial database was established. The spatial-time permutation cluster analysis was performed by SaTScan 9.1.1 to detect the spatial-time cluster areas of schistosomiasis,and a risk map was drawn by ArcGIS 10.0. Results Compared to 2006, the infection rates of human,cattle and Oncomelania hupensis snails decreased by 47.67%,93.34%and 52.41%,respectively in 2011. The space-time permutation clustering analysis of the infection rates of human,cattle and snails showed 4,3 and 4 clusters,respectively,and all the clustered areas were distributed in inner embankment areas. Conclusions From 2006 to 2011,the schistosomiasis endemic situation presents a decline trend in Jiangling County. The detected cluster areas are the im-portant areas for schistosomiasis control. The space-time permutation statistics could be used in the analysis of endemic situation of schistosomiasis.

Objective To implement a two?level community?based health education pattern of schistosomiasis in residents of endemic areas in marshland and lake regions,so as to explore the suitable pattern of health education under hypo?endemic situa?tion. Methods Two schistosomiasis endemic villages in Jiangling County,Hubei Province were collected as study areas,and among which,one village was treated as an intervention group,where the two?level community?based health education pattern as well as regular control measures was implemented;the other village was a control group,where only regular control measures were implemented. The awareness rates on schistosomiasis control,the rates of correct behavior and the compliance rates of ex?amination,treatment and chemotherapy of the two groups before and after the intervention were compared. Results According to the results of the baseline survey in 2014,the awareness rates of schistosomiasis control of the intervention and control groups were 84.00%and 77.45%,respectively,the correct rates of behavior of the two groups were 72.00%and 63.73%,respectively, and the compliance rates of the treatment were 80.36%and 82.28%,respectively,there were no statistically significant differ? ences between all the above rates of the two groups(all P>0.05). After the intervention of the two?level community?based health education,the correct rates of behavior,and the compliance rates of examination and chemotherapy of the two groups were 92.31%and 80.37%,95.11%and 82.55%,84.13%and 63.64%,respectively,and the differences between all the rates above of the two groups were statistically significant(all P<0.05). When compared to those before intervention,the growing rates of the compliance rates of examination,treatment and chemotherapy of the intervention group were 20.97%,15.33%and 23.29%, respectively,while those of control group were 14.27%,4.17%,-3.77%,respectively,the growing rates of the intervention groups were higher than those of the control groups. Conclusions Through the two?level community?based pattern of health edu?cation,the compliance rates of examination and treatment of the residents have improved,and therefore,the pattern is suitable for popularization and application in marshland and lake regions.
