Abstract: Objective To find out the existing problems and provide reference for further improving the quality of report information by analyzing the report cards of COVID-19 and the positive report cards of primary screening reported in Ningxia. Methods All COVID-19 case cards from 2020 to 2021 and initial screening positive cards were derived from the Chinese Information System for Disease Control and Prevention according to final review date. The timeliness of case reporting, timeliness of case review, completeness and accuracy of the case cards were analyzed. Results In Ningxia, the first case of COVID-19 was reported on January 20, 2020, and as of December 31, 2021, 122 confirmed cases and 4 symptomatic infected cases were reported. In 2021, the timely reporting rate of COVID-19 was 98.00%, which increased by 8.24% compared with 2020 (90.54%). Compared with 2020, the average time limit for diagnosis to reporting of COVID-19 in 2021 was shortened by 83.12%; in 2021, the timely review rate of COVID-19 was 100.00%, which increased by 13.84% compared with 2020 (87.84%). Compared with 2020, the time from reporting to final review was shortened by 98.91%. In 2021, the timely rate of positive reports in COVID-19 in Ningxia was 90.00%, among which the timely rate of reports by county (district) nucleic acid detection institutions was the highest (92.31%), followed by municipal (91.67%) and autonomous region (81.82%). Conclusions At the beginning of the epidemic in 2020, the timeliness of COVID-19 in Ningxia was poor, and through the implementation of measures such as technical training, supervision and inspection to continuously optimize the staffing of medical institutions and disease control institutions, the timeliness of reporting COVID-19 in Ningxia in 2021 was substantially improved, but there were still some weak links. In the future work, technical guidance and training should be carried out for weak links, and efforts should be made to improve the quality of reports.

Objective To compare the diagnostic value of adenosine and exercise stress myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) for detecting coronary heart disease (CHD) in women. Methods One hundred and thirty-eight patients with CHD were randomly divided into two groups: adenosine stress group (n = 69)and exercise stress group (n = 69). All patients underwent myocardial SPECT evaluation. Coronary angiography (CAG), referred as "gold standard" , was performed in each patient within 1 week before or after MPI. The diagnostic value of the two stress MPI was compared with χ2 test or Fisher's exact test. Results In adenosine stress group, the sensitivity, negative predictive value and accuracy were 88.2% (45/51),72.7% (16/22), 88.4% (61/69), respectively, which were not significantly different from those of the exercise stress group (91.7% (44/48), 66.7% (8/12), 81.2% (52/64); χ2 =0. 571, 0. 714, 0.249, P >0.05). However, the false positive rate of adenosine stress (11.1%, 2/18) was significantly lower than that of exercise stress (50.0%, 8/16), P = 0.023. Conclusions Adenosine and exercise stress MPI have similar value for CHD diagnosis in women, however, adenosine stress MPI may have an advantage of low false positive rate.

Objective To Discuss the impacts of different dosage of atorvastatirs on serum hsCRP,IL-10 and MCP-1 levels on post-intervention patients with coronary stenting. Methods 93 post-intervention patients with coronary stenting were selected and randomly divided into 3 groups.Each group took different dosage of oral atorvastatins after the operation for more than one week.The dosage for each group was 10 mg,20 mg and 40 mg,respectively.Each patient was phlebotomized for three times,which are 24 hours before the operation,24 hours after the operation and one week after the operation.Serum MCP-1,IL-10 and hs-CRP levels were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)and immunoturbidimetry(ITM). Results Serum hs-CRP and MCP-1 levels of post-intervention patients were significantly higher than those of pre-intervention.This illustrated that the serum hsCRP and MCP-1 levels were closely related to PCI.Serum hs-CRP and MCP-1 levels decreased in those patients one week after operation which proves they are negatively correlated with the dosage of atorvastatins.There was no statistic evidence to prove the correlation between different dosage of atorvastatins and the level of serum IL-10.The ratio of MCP-1/IL-10 at 24h post-intervention patient was significantly higher than pre-intervention,which proves the ratio was negatively correlated with the dosage of atorvastatins. Conclusion Atorvastatins decreases serum MCP-1 and hs-CRP levels after PCI.Serum MCP-1 and hs-CRP levels were negatively correlated with the dosage of atorvastatins.

Background:Bioinformatics is an effective technology for microarray data mining and gene function prediction. Aims:To analyze the gene CRELD2 that associated with pathogenesis,disease activity and efficacy of biological agents in ulcerative colitis( UC)by bioinformatics to provide a theoretical basis for subsequent studies on its biological function and molecular mechanism in the development and progress of UC. Methods:The microarray data associated with pathogenesis, disease activity and efficacy of biological agents in UC were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus( GEO database);the data mining and analyses were conducted by using bioinformatics tools such as BRB-ArrayTools, ProtParam,ELM,SignalP 4. 1,PBIL-IBCP Lyon Gerland,GO and STRING. Results:Cross-over analyses revealed that expressions of four genes(CDC25B,CRELD2,IL1RN,PITPNC1)were up-regulated in the order from colonic mucosa of healthy subjects,un-inflamed mucosa of active UC patients to inflamed mucosa of active UC patients,meanwhile these four genes were significantly down-regulated in infliximab responders after treatment when compared with that before treatment and infliximab non-responders. The function of CRELD2 gene was unknown. Bioinformatics analyses showed that CRELD2 gene was located on the long arm of chromosome 22(22q13. 33),and encoded a secreted protein composed of 402 amino acids. This protein contained several epidermal growth factor( EGF)-like domains,mainly distributed in Golgi apparatus, endoplasmic reticulum and extracellular site and had calcium- and protein-binding effect. Interactions existed between CRELD2 and CHRNA4,CHRNB2 and RHBDD3 proteins. Conclusions:Gene CRELD2 may have EGF-like biological function and via participating directly or indirectly the regulation of immunocytes to affect the pathogenesis and disease activity of UC. It might be used as a biomarker for diagnosis and assessment of disease activity and therapeutic efficacy of UC. Furthermore,it might be a potential target for treatment of UC.

Objective To explore the value of fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR)sequence and gradient echo T2 ?weighted image (GRE-T2 ? WI)in diagnosis of acute traumatic extra-axial hemorrhage.Methods 50 patients who were diagnosed as acute traumatic extra-axial hemorrhage by plain CT underwent FLAIR and GRE-T2 ? WI in acute stage.The diagnosis consistency (Kappa ),detection rate of subarachnoid hemorrhage(SAH),epidural hemorrhage(EDH)and subdural hemorrhage(SDH)were compared.The detection rates of SAH in 8 locations among FLAIR,GRE-T2 ? WI and combination of two sequences were analyzed by Chi-square test.Results 48 patients were enrolled in the study.The diagnosis consistency of SAH between FLAIR and GRE-T2 ? WI was high (k =1.0).The detection rate of SAH was 100% for both FLAIR and GRE-T2 ? WI.Comparing with GRE-T2 ? WI and combi-nation of two sequences,FLAIR tended to misdiagnose SAH in perimesencephalic cistern (P <0.05).The diagnosis consistency of EDH between FLAIR and GRE-T2 ? WI was high (k =1.0).3 patients with EDH were all detected by FLAIR and GRE-T2 ? WI. The diagnosis consistency of SDH between FLAIR and GRE-T2 ? WI was high (k =0.943).The detection rate of 12 patients with SDH was 100% in FLAIR,and 1 patient with SDH was missed by GRE-T2 ? WI.Conclusion The detection rate of acute traumatic extra-axial hemorrhage is high for both FLAIR and GRE-T2 ? WI.Combination of two sequences can improve the accuracy of acute traumatic extra-axial hemorrhage in clinic.

BACKGROUND:Early vascularization is crucial for wound healing. A high-porosity, macrovoid alogeneic skin leads to the rapid vascularization and celular infiltration.
OBJECTIVE: To obtain a new alogeneic skin product with high porosity, good cel permeability and good histocompatibility using an improved preparation method of human acelular dermal matrix.
METHODS: Cel components of healthy human skins were removed by the improved method and the traditional method, respectively. The improved method was to remove the subcutaneous fat, eliminate the epidermis (1 mol/L NaCl solution at 37℃ for 24 hours) folowed by shaking processing (2% NaOH at 45℃ for 4 hours), and then, the solution was neutralized with PBS rinsing, dried and stored at 4℃ for standby. We detected the porosity and degradation time in vitroof the acelular dermal matrices prepared by two methods and the cytotoxicity of the material infiltration liquid on the adipose-derived stem cels. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was used for the detection of the cel residual, the integrity of colagen and cel biocompatibility. Scanning electron microscopy was used to detect the pore size.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Both the two methods could completely remove the cel components, and maintain the integrity of the colagen scaffold. The porosity of acelular dermal matrix with the improved method was (93.22±0.99)%, which was significantly higher than that with the traditional method [(74.28±2.06)%;P < 0.001]. However, there was no significant difference in in vitrodegradation time between the two kinds of acelular dermal matrices(P > 0.05). No obvious cytotoxicity of the acelular dermal matrix prepared with the improved method was detected. At 3-7 days of co-culture, the adipose-derived stem cels cultured on the acelular dermal matrix prepared with the improved method could penetrate the basement membrane to the deep dermis, while there was no obvious cel invasion and growth in the deep dermis prepared by the traditional method. Compared with the traditional method, the improved method is more suitable for cel infiltration and growth with higher porosity and larger pore size.
