Objective To establish a novel method to determine the absolute content of quercetin by proton nuclear magnetic resonance (qNMR).Methods DMSO-d6 was employed as solvent,and maleic acid as an internal standard.Proton signal peaks at δ7.50-7.58 and δ6.26 of maleic acid were served as quantification peaks.The content of quercetin is determined with qNMR in comparison with the results obtained by mass balance method.Results Linear regression of quantitative peak areas ratio (As/Ar) of quercetin-maleic acid vs mass ratio (ms/mr) yielded a correlation coefficient of 0.999 3 and a regression equation ofy =2.963 x + 0.134 1.The contents of three batches quercetin were 85.20％,84.93％,and 85.27％,the average was 85.13％ and its RSD was 0.21％.The results were generally consistent with that of mass balance methods.Conclusion This method was easy and simple to handle,and the analysis results were accurate.It could be the complementary for the mass balance method.

This study aimed to construct throe-dimensional finite element model of the mandibular complete overdenturo and to analyze the influence rules for stress distribution under different mandibular shapes. The layer cutting method was employed as a basic tool to deal with different plaster models to gain two-dimensional point data. These data were introduced to the commercial software ANSYS to construct throe-dimensional finite element model of the mandibular complete overdenturo, including nine kinds of typical shapes, such as sharpness, roundness and squareness, and etc. Static loads were imposed on denture so as to accomplish biomechanicel analysis and to study the influence rules of stress distribution for mandibular complete overdenturo under different mandibular shapes. Results revealed that the sequence of stress from high to low was squareness, roundness, sharpness and the other extrapolated, basic and inside. The throe-dimensional finite element model has high simulation accuracy and the results provide an experimental foundation and guidance for clinical work.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the immunoregulatory role of tolerogenic dendritic cells(TolDC) in allergic airway inflammation in mouse model of allergic rhinitis(AR).METHODS A total of 24 Balb/c mice were equally and randomly divided into 4 groups with 6 mice in each group. AR group was established with oval bumin(OVA) sensitization and challenge, meanwhile the physiological saline(PBS) sensitization and challenge as the control group. AR group were treated by adoptive transfer of TolDC as treatment group. And treatment group were injected intraperitoneally with TGF-β/IL-10R neutralizing antibody as blockade group. In each group, allergic nasal symptoms score, inflammatory cell infiltration in lung, the expression of Th1/Th2-derived cytokines in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF) and nasal lavage fluid(NALF), the expression of OVA-specific serum IgE and the expression of Treg in lung were measured.RESULTS The mouse model of OVA-induced AR was successfully developed. Compared with AR group, treatment group exhibited lower allergic nasal symptoms score, a decrease in inflammatory cell infiltration in lung, lower expression of Th1/Th2-derived cytokines in BALF and NALF and OVA-specific serum IgE, as well as up-regulation of Treg in lung, which were abolished by TGF-β/IL-10 neutralizing antibody shown in blockade group.CONCLUSION TolDC suppress airway inflammation in AR by inducing regulatory T cells through TGF-β/IL-10-dependent mechanisms.

The interferons(IFNs) are a family of the multifunctional cytokines, which are a kind of highly active and multifunctional glycoproteins.Studies in recent years have shown that IFNs exert a powerful antitumor effect by regulating the proliferation of tumor cells, suppressing tumor metastasis and angiogenesis, and activating antitumor immune response.Combined with other tumor treatment methods, it can inhibit the development of a variety of blood system tumors and solid tumors.In addition, the use of IFNs inducers or IFNs combined with emerging immunotherapy can significantly increase the effectiveness of tumor therapy.This review focuses on our understanding of antitumor mechanism and clinical application of IFNs, and provides some guidance for future research and clinical treatment.

Objective To study the cryoprecipitate effect of local external treatment of anal fistula surgical wound repair.Methods A total of 95 cases of low simple anal fistula patients was chosen, and was divided into three groups according to random number table method.The cryoprecipitate group (n =32 cases) began with cryoprecipitate dressing (2 layer) even to fill in a wound, once per day.The Kangfuxin group (n =32 cases) used Kangfuxin solution.The exposed burn ointment (MEBO) group (n =31 cases) used MEBO to cover the wound.The healing time, postoperative wound healing rate, the granulation tissue growth, new epithelial coverage, and adverse reactions were observed.Results The cryoprecipitate group in 14 d and 21 d had postoperative wound healing rate (60.97 ±4.20)％ and (97.69 ± 1.79)％ ,wound healing time (21.31 ±2.08)days;it had higher healing rate and shorter healing times compared to other two groups (P ＜0.05).Wound repaired more neatly;and 14d and 21d after the operation, wound granulation tissue growth rate [(61.06 ± 13.29) ％ and (97.63 ± 2.81) ％] and new epithelial coverage [(33.03 ±4.15)％ and (94.97 ±4.36)％] were more than the control groups (P ＜0.05) with less adverse reactions relative to control groups.Conclusions The cryoprecipitate contained in the composition has a strong biological activity.It can promote the wound tissue cell growth, and promote the wound repair.

Radiotherapy is an important auxiliary treatment for glioma. Although comprehensive treatment of glioma has made some progress in recent years, the prognosis is still poor. How to improve the radiosensitivity of glioma is one of the hot spots in current glioma research. The changes of energy metabolism in gliomas promote malignant progression and resistance to chemoradiotherapy, but the exact mechanism is still unclear. This paper reviews the research progress of energy metabolism in gliomas and its relation with radiosensitivity of gliomas, in order to lay a foundation for further exploration of improving radiosensitivity of gliomas.

Objective To clarify the relationship between clinical manifestation and pathological features of IgA nephropathy (IgAN) patients with mild proteinuria and/or hematuria.Methods Clinicopathological data from 316 biopsy-proven IgAN cases (proteinuria＜1 g/24 h and/or hematuria, and Scr＜133 μmol/L) from our hospital between January 1993 and October 2009 were studied retrospectively. The renal histopathology was quantified according to Lee's grading and Katafuchi's semi-quantitative standard, and the risk factors for renal pathological lesions were evaluated using multifactor logistic regression analysis. Results Among these 316 patients, 123 were male and 193 patients were female. The mean age at the time of renal biopsy was (33.10±10.69) years old. Clinical features were found as follows: hematuria with proteinuria was found in 267 patients (84.5%), isolated hematuria in 24 patients (7.6%), and isolated proteinuria in 25 patients (7.9%). 16.5% of patients had hypertension. The percentages of CKD stage Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ were 76.9%, 20.9% and 2.2%, respectively. 31.3% of patients presented Lee's grade Ⅲ or more severe.52.8% of patients had various degrees of glomerulosclerosis. Crescent formation was observed in 20.3% of patients. 22.5% of patients showed tubular atrophy;16.8% showed interstitial fibrosis and 24.7% also had renal vascular lesions. The extent of glomerulosclerosis was negatively correlated with eGFR levels, but positively correlated with the amount of proteinuria and mean arterial pressure (MAP) level (P＜0.05). The score of tubulointerstitial lesion was positively correlated with the amount of proteinuria and negatively correlated with eGFR and hemoglobin (Hb)level (P＜0.05). The degree of renal vascular lesion was also correlated to MAP level positively and eGFR level negatively (P＜0.05). Multifactor logistic regression analysis revealed that proteinuria, Scr and Hb at the time of renal biopsy were independent risk factors for severe renal pathological lesions (Lee's grade Ⅲ or more severe) with odds ratio of 8.564, 1.031 and 0.975 respectively (all P＜0.01). Conclusions Severe renal histological lesions and decrease of renal function may be seen in some IgAN patients with mild proteinuria and/or hematuria. The levels of proteinuria,Scr and Hb are the independent risk factors for severe renal pathological lesions. Renal biopsy is important in these patients in order to make diagnosis and individual treatment.

Objective To characterize the urinary microbial profile of male non-muscle invasive bladder cancer patients compared to healthy controls.Methods Between March,2017 and September,2017,mid-stream urine from 26 non-muscle invasive bladder cancer and 18 non-neoplastic controls were collected by the clean method,then centrifuged and processed for 16S rRNA gene sequencing.Sequencing reads were processed for evaluating alpha diversity and beta diversity using QIIME.LEfSe algorithm was performed to identify potential bacterial genera biomarker.Results The smoking cases were more in tumor group than those in control group(21 vs.7,P ＜ 0.01).The urinary microenvironment of bladder cancer was characterized by increased bacterial richness (Observed species index,Chaol index and Ace index,125.77 ± 69.64 vs.80.38 ± 46.24;142.82 ± 76.74 vs.90.68 ± 47.62;and 147.92 ± 77.68 vs.88.19 ± 45.38,all P ＜ 0.05) and by the enrichment of some bacterial genera (e.g.,Acinetobacter and Anaerococcus).Significant difference in β diversity was found between cancer and non-cancer group (ANOSIM,P =O.009).A clear hierarchical clustering of cancer samples was observed,suggesting a common dysbiosis associated to bladder cancer.Conclusions Patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer exhibit a different microbial community compared to non-neoplastic controls,suggesting a possible pathophysiological correlation between microbiome and bladder cancer.Urinary microbial community may be associated with the prognosis of NMIBC.

Objective To compare the accuracy of electroencephalography (EEG) grading scale with amplitude-integrated electroencephalography (aEEG) in predicting poor outcomes (3-month), who sustained coma after cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in adults. Methods A retrospective study was conducted. The patients with post-anoxic coma admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) of Tongren Hospital, Capital Medical University from March 2010 to June 2017 were enrolled. EEG was registered and recorded at least once within 7 days of coma after CPR, while not being subjected to therapeutic hypothermia. General data, Glasgow coma scale (GCS), EEG grading and aEEG model were collected. According to Glasgow prognosis score (GOS) of 3-month outcome, patients were divided into poor prognosis group (GOS 1-2) and good prognosis group (GOS 3-5), and the differences of related indexes between the two groups were compared. The predictive ability of aEEG model and EEG grading for brain function prognosis was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results Fifty-four patients were included, with 31 males and 23 females, and age of (53.9±19.3) years. Among the EEG Young grades, 17 cases (31.5%) were grade 1, 4 cases (7.4%) were grade 2-5, and 33 cases (61.1%) were grade 6. Among the aEEG model grades, 26 cases (48.1%) had slow wave pattern grade 1, 23 cases (42.6%) had suppressed mode grade 4, 4 cases (7.4%) had status epilepticus mode grade 2, and 1 case (1.9%) had burst suppression mode grade 3. Thirty-six patients had poor prognosis 3-month after onset, 26 of them died and 10 had persistent vegetative state. The prognosis was good in 18 cases, including 16 cases with severe neurological disability and 2 cases with moderate neurological disability. There was no significant difference in gender, age, anoxic time between two groups with different prognosis, while the degree of consciousness disorder in poor prognosis group was more severe than that in good prognosis group (GCS score: 4.1±1.7 vs. 5.0±2.1, P < 0.05). The consistency test showed that different physicians had good consistency in EEG grading and aEEG model (Kappa values were 0.917 and 0.932, respectively). It was shown by ROC curve analysis that the area under ROC curve (AUC) of aEEG model and EEG grading for predicting poor prognosis of coma patients after CPR were 0.815 and 0.720, respectively (both P < 0.01); when the cut-off value of aEEG was 2.5, the sensitivity was 79.3%, the specificity was 77.4%, the positive likelihood ratios (PLR) was 3.508, and the negative likelihood ratios (NLR) was 0.267; when the cut-off value of EEG grading was 4.5, the sensitivity was 82.8%, the specificity was 61.3%, the PLR was 2.140, and NLR was 0.281. Conclusions aEEG model was more accurate in prognosticating poor outcomes (3-month) in patients with post-anoxic coma, when compared to EEG grading. Its operation was simple, so aEEG is very suitable in ICU.

ObjectiveTo analyze the results of fit testing and its influencing factors on half-mask respirator among workers exposed to organic solvents. Methods A total of 84 workers exposed to organic solvents were selected as the research subjects using a convenience sampling method. The qualitative fit test apparatus of respiratory protection was tested after the workers had put on the half-mask respirats, and 11 facial indicators of the subjects were measured. Results The overall pass rate of the respirator fit testing was 71.4% (60/84). The lowest pass rate was 63.1% (53/84), which occurred during bending movements of workers. The head width, minimum forehead width, face length, nose length, nose depth, head circumference and head length were higher in workers who passed respirator fit testing, compared with those in the failing group (all P<0.05). The result of binary logistic regression analysis showed that gender and face width were influencing factors of the respirator fit testing (both P<0.05). Female workers had a lower pass rate of the fit testing than male workers, and workers with larger face width had a lower pass rate in the fit testing. Conclusion Drastic movement may lead to a decrease in the seal of half-mask respirator of workers exposed to organic solvents. When providing half-mask respirator to workers exposed to organic solvents, employers need to pay attention to the fit of respirators of female works and those with larger face width to ensure the effectiveness of respiratory protection for workers.
