Objective:To discuss the coincidence rate between the initial test and the retest result of the laboratory, and the relationship between the result of reexamination and the result of confirmation by analyzing the retesting and confirmatory result of positive samples in various medical institutions,Methods:A total of 710 HIV antibody positive samples from medical institutions within the jurisdiction of Xuzhou city from January 1 to December 31, 2018 were retrospectively collected as research materials. The source, population, reinspection result and confirmatory result were analyzed respectively.Results:The positive rate of reexamination in medical institutions, disease control institutions and blood collection and supply institutions was 62.12%(269/433), 96.53%(167/173), 14.42%(15/104), respectively. The double-reactive samples were confirmed to be positive at the time of reexamination or follow-up. The inconsistencies in the reexamination result were confirmed to be negative by the appropriate time or follow-up. The false positive rate by Bio-Rad reagents was 0.23% (1/443), the false positive rate by Alere reagents was 1.78% (8/450).Conclusions:From high to low, the retest compliance rate was in the order of disease control institutions, medical institutions, blood collection and supply institutions. The samples sent by the CDC can be tested directly without retesting. Therefore, the double-reactive samples in the reinspection should be mainly followed up. If the retest result are inconsistent and the samples are not confirmed positive or the follow-up result are positive, there is no missing test. The specificity of Bio-Rad reagents is better than that of Alere reagents.

Objective To investigate the technique and dosage selection of indocyanine green(ICG)fluorescence staining in laparoscopic anatomical hemihepatectomy.Methods A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted.The clinical date of the patients who underwent laparoscopic anatomical hemihepatectomy in the Cancer Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from October 2020 to October 2023 was collected and analyzed,and the management of the Glissonean pedicle,the method and effect of ICG fluorescence staining during the operation,the dose of ICG injection,and the postoperative recovery were analyzed.Results A total of 91 laparoscopic anatomical hemihepatectomies were enrolled in this study,including 28 right hemihepatectomies and 63 left hemihepatectomies.The Glissonean pedicle was dissected intra-sheath in 9 cases and extra-sheath in 82 cases.ICG fluorescence staining was all performed using the negative staining method,of which 69 cases(75.8%)were successfully stained.The success rate of staining in the extra-sheath dissection and low-dose ICG group was higher than that in the intra-sheath dissection and high-dose ICG group.The average operation time was(168.5±32.2)minutes,the intraoperative bleeding volume was(152.4±56.3)ml,and the intraoperative blood transfusion rate was 6.6%(6/91),the average postoperative hospital stay was(8.5±2.6)days.One case was converted to laparotomy due to exophytic growth of the tumor compressing the Glissonean pedicle.Four cases had Clavien-Dindo Ⅰ-Ⅱ complications,all of which improved after treatment.There were 3 cases of grade Ⅲa complications,all of which were caused by bile leakage and abdominal cavity infection.They were cured by puncture and drainage.And there were no serious complications above grade Ⅲb.Conclusions In laparoscopic anatomical hemihepatectomy,the ICG fluorescence staining method was recommended to use the negative staining method of the extra-sheath dissection of the Glissonean pedicle,and a lower dose of ICG could help to increase the success rate of fluorescence staining.

【Objective】 Diabetic mice could show learning and memory dysfunction, and we aimed to investigate the effect of Sigma-1 receptor agonist, PRE-084, on neurons and cognitive impairment in mice with type 1 diabetes (T1DM). 【Methods】 Twenty mice with T1DM induced by streptozocin, aged 8-10 weeks, and 20 control mice (CON) were randomly divided into four groups (CON+Vehicle, CON+PRE-084, T1DM+Vehicle and T1DM+PRE-084). Mouse primary neurons were cultured in high glucose medium with PRE-084 and control solvent, respectively. The body weight, food and water intake, and fasting blood glucose level of mice in each group were detected and recorded. The learning and memory abilities of mice were detected by new object recognition experiment. The mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum membrane (MAM) structure of neurons in hippocampal CA1 area of mice was detected by transmission electron microscope. And the expression levels of ATP and reactive oxygen species (ROS) in hippocampus of mice were detected by biochemical kit. Cell viability and ROS level of primary neurons were detected by CCK8 and cellular ROS kit. 【Results】 PRE-084 reduced the increase of body weight, food and water intake, and blood glucose caused by diabetes. PRE-084 significantly ameliorated the learning and memory impairment of the mice with T1DM, improved the changes of MAM structure in neurons of hippocampal CA1 area of diabetic mice, increased the level of ATP in hippocampus of diabetic mice, and decreased the increase of ROS expression in diabetic hippocampus and neurons under high glucose conditions. 【Conclusion】 Sigma-1 receptor agonist, PRE-084, could improve learning and memory impairment in the mice with T1DM, which might be related to the structural changes of MAM, the increase of ATP production, and the decrease of ROS production in hippocampal neurons.

【Objective】 To explore the effect of high-fat and high-fructose diet on mouse intestinal barrier function, as well as the role of ketohexokinase (KHK), the key enzyme in fructose metabolism, in intestinal barrier impairment. 【Methods】 Eight-week-old male control C57BL/6J mice and Khk-/- mice were randomly divided into control + normal diet (ND), control + high-fat and high-fructose diet (HFHFD), Khk-/-+ normal diet (ND+Khk-/-), and Khk-/-+ high-fat and high-fructose diet (HFHFD+Khk-/-) groups, with eight mice in each group. During the high-fat and high-fructose diet and normal diet, the body weight changes of mice in different groups were recorded. After the intervention, the blood glucose and insulin levels of mice in each group were detected. The intestinal barrier function and inflammation level of mice were evaluated by detecting intestinal water content, permeability, tight junction protein expression, serum and intestinal inflammatory factor levels. 【Results】 Compared with ND group, HFHFD group significantly increased the body weight, blood glucose and insulin levels of mice, increased the intestinal water content and permeability, decreased the expression of tight junction proteins, and increased inflammatory factors of the serum and intestines. In the two groups fed with high-fat and high-fructose diet, the body weight, blood glucose and insulin levels of the HFHFD+Khk-/- group were significantly lower than those of HFHFD group, and the intestinal barrier dysfunction and inflammation were significantly improved. 【Conclusion】 KHK, a key enzyme in fructose metabolism, is involved in the impairment of intestinal barrier caused by high-fat and high-fructose diet. Knockout of Khk gene significantly improved intestinal barrier dysfunction and the inflammation level.
