1.A preliminary study of arsenic trioxide induced apoptosis of human cholangiocarcinoma QBC939 cell line
Chinese Journal of General Surgery 1997;0(04):-
Objective To study arsenic trioxide induces apoptosis of human cholangiocarcinoma cell line QBC939. Methods MTT was applied to detect the inhibitory effect of arsenic trioxide on cholangiocarcinoma cell line QBC939. Morphological changes were observed by light microscopy and fluorescence microscopy. Rhodamine123 dyeing and analysis of DNA content and cell cycle were examined by flow cytometry. Results Cell growth was significantly inhibited by different concentration(1-16?mol/L) of arsenic trioxide. The inhibition ratio was dependent on arsenic concentration and time. The typical morphological character of ~apoptosis was observed, apoptotic peak of hypodiploid was detected and fluorescence intensity of ~Rhodamine 123 decreased when the cells were cultured with 4?mol/L As_2O_3. Conclusions As_2O_3 can induce ~apoptosis of cell line QBC939. The mechanism may be related to the depolarization of mitochondrial ~membrane potential.

Objective To investigate the timing of operation and the selection of surgical procedure for acute biliary pancreatitis.Methods The clinical data of 247 cases of acute biliary pancreatitis were retrospectively analysed.Results Among 10 non-operation patients,4 died;12 patients underwent emergency operation,5 had postoperative complications and 2 patients died after operation.169 patients underwent delayed operation after effective conservative therapy and 1 patient had postoperative complication;56 patients underwent(selective) operation without any postoperative complication or death.Conclusions Early emergency operation should be performed for relief of biliary obstruction in acute biliary obstructive pancreatitis.The patients with acute non-obstructive biliary pancreatitis should undergo conservative therapy at first and then,after(pancreatitis) has been controlled,delayed operation or selective operation to treat the biliary pathologic condition should be performed.
3.Sexual orientation and characteristics of sexual behaviors among 200 HIV positive male college students in Beijing
Chinese Journal of School Health 2022;43(7):999-1002
Objective:
To understand sexual orientation and characteristics of sexual behaviors related with HIV infection among HIV positive male college students in Beijing and to provide suggestions for development of sexual health education and HIV prevention strategy for student population.
Methods:
HIV positive male college students diagnosed from 2016 to June 30, 2019 in Beijing were recruited. Questionnaire was used to retrospectively investigate sexual orientation and characteristics of sexual behaviors before HIV infection. Behaviors related to HIV infection were compared between absolutely homosexual and others sexual orientation.
Results:
The average age of male students firstly identified to be HIV positive was (22.18±2.70) years old, 61.5%(123) of them were undergraduate, 69.5%(139) were not registered permanent residency in Beijing, 38.5%(77) of their interviewed sexual partners were from online chat and 83.0%(166) had homosexual behaviors. Sexual orientation score analysis showed that 50.0% of the participants self identified as exclusively homosexual. Compared with other sexual oriental group, exclusively homosexual group had lower mean age of their HIV infection firstly identified( t =2.77, P =0.01), higher rate of Rush use, firstly insertive sexual behavior with male, firstly insertive sexual behavior before 18 years old, sexual partners more than three persons, having regular partners, nonpersistent use of condom, being diagnosed of sexual transmitted disease and the frequency of homosexual behaviors more than 1 time per month ( χ 2=5.15,28.06,4.16,5.34,5.89,7.39,6.68, P <0.05). Rush users had higher rate of STD diagnosis than non users in exclusively homosexual group ( χ 2=6.26, P =0.01).
Conclusion
Risky sexual behaviors associated with HIV infection were higher in exclusively homosexual group then other sexual orientation groups among HIV positive male college students. Family and school should concern with sexual health education byreinforcing health education via network media to improve college students’ awarenees on HIV/AIDS.

OBJECTIVES:
To provide reference basis for reducing the mortality for children under 5 years old and promote the healthy development, the mortality for children under 5 years old and the main causes for death in Liuyang City from 2013 to 2020 are analyzed.
METHODS:
The data of 725 cases of death for children under 5 years old in Liuyang City from 2013 to 2020 were collected.The causes and difference of death among the children were analyzed retrospectively by descriptive statistic methods.
RESULTS:
There were a total of 144 516 live births in Liuyang City from 2013 to 2020. The mortality for children under 5 years old was 5.01‰, for infants was 3.39‰, and for newborns was 1.63‰. The male child mortality was 5.28‰, and the female child mortality rate was 4.72‰, with significant difference (P>0.05). The mortality for children under 5 years old was seasonal fluctuation, without significant difference among seasons (P>0.05). For the past 5 years, the top 3 causes for death among children under 5 years old were preterm birth and low birth weight, congenital heart disease, and pneumonia. Before death, 341 cases (47.04%) were treated in provincial hospitals, 198 cases (27.31%) in county-level hospitals, 56 cases (7.72%) in village-level hospitals, and 130 cases (17.93%) were not treated.
CONCLUSIONS
The mortality for children under 5 years old in Liuyang City is gradually reduced in the past 5 years. The main causes for death are premature birth and low birth weight, congenital heart disease and pneumonia. We should develop healthy education, improve the rate of prenatal diagnosis, promote the construction of obstetrics and paediatrics, and fundamentally reduce the mortality for children under 5 years old.
