Objective To investigate the changes in proliferation index (PrI) of gingival fibroblasts in nifedipine-induced gingival hyperplasia ( NIFr-HGF). Methods Gingival fibroblasts were derived from a patient with nifedipine-induced gingival hyperplasia. Cells were induced by 10 ng/mL and 1 000 ng/mL nifedipine ( low- and high-concentration drug intervention groups), respectively. Cells were harvested 18 h and 30 h after intervention, cell cycles were detected by flow cytometry, and Prls were calculated. NIFr-HGF without nifedipine induction were served as blank control. Results After induction for the same time, Prls of NIFr-HGF cell cycle of low- and high-concentration drug intervention groups were significantly higher than those of blank control group (P <0.05) , while there was no significant difference between low and high-concentration drug intervention groups (P > 0.05). In low and high-concentration drug intervention groups, Prls of NIFr-HGF cell cycle after intervention for 30 h were significantly higher than those after intervention for 18 h [(57. 54 ± 0.019)% vs (21.15 ±0.011)%, and (59.36 ±0.031)% vs (19.01 ±0.012) %, respectively] (P < 0.05). Conclusion For patients with nifedipine-induced gingival hyperplasia, PrI of NIFr-HGF cell cycle increases with time of nifedipine intervention, while is not significantly related to drug concentration.

Objective To find out the status of nosocomial infection management in hemodialysis sections, in order to encourage their continuous quality improvement and standardize their management Methods 41 hemodialysis sections with (≥) 3 dialyzers and independent operation were chosen for investigation. On-site investigation and environmental microbiology monitoring combined. Results The higher the level of the hospital, the better the nosocomial infection control in its implementation of the infection control measures. In terms of rules and regulations, incompliant secondary hospitals and private hospitals accounted for 56. 2% of hospitals of the same ranking; in terms of layout and processes, 75% are found incompliant; and various defects are found in the dialyzer reuse management and disinfection in tertiary and lower hospitals. As to hand hygiene of the staff, the incompliance rate is over 55%. As indicated in the results of microbial environment monitoring, the compliance rate of dialysis water is over 90%, that of dialysate is 78.6% ～ 86.2%, and that of hand disinfection is 56.6%～78.6%.Conclusion It is imperative to strengthen the supervision of secondary hospitals and private hospitals,and to train their staff in the knowledge of hand hygiene and nosocomial infection in hemodialysis rooms.Hospitals found with poor infection management will be encouraged to take issue-specific actions for rectification.

The imported schistosomiasis cases in the Chinese literature and reports from the infectious disease monitoring in-formation system from 1979 to 2013 were collected and compiled. Totally 365 cases were reported to be infected with outside schis-tosomiasis, including 239 cases of schistosomiasis haematobia (74.0%) and 71 cases of schistosomiasis mansoni (22.0%), and 42 foreigners (11.5%) and 323 Chinese (88.5%). The infection areas involved 15 countries and regions in Africa. Totally 74.92%of pa-tients worked in the construction or geological prospecting in the wild field. According to the analysis of these cases, we found that the management system of prevention and control of imported schistosomiasis cases was not perfect including the high missing re-port rate, high misdiagnosis rate, and no standard diagnostic criteria. We suggest that all the levels of CDC or health administrative authorities should adopt the following relevant control measures to strengthen the imported schistosomiasis prevention and control in order to reduce the damage to the public health and the risk of the spread of African schistosomiasis in China:1. to establish and perfect the imported schistosomiasis monitoring and control system in China;2. to integrate the dynamic information platform of la-bor export and establish the comprehensive prevention and control management system of infectious diseases;3. to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of oversea imported schistosomiasis; 4. to strengthen the research on the transmission risk of imported schistosomiasis in the territory of China.

Vascular cognitive impairment is the most common type of cognitive dysfunction. Imaging of nervous system presents important references for the research of cognitive impairment and helps to identify different types of dementia, detect symptoms of dementia early or timely, and make a follow-up study on patient's condition progress so as to assess brain function in patients before and after treatment. Therefore, imaging of nervous system will make ever greater contributions to the study of vascular cognitive impairment.

Objective To explore the expression of merlin and cyclins and the nucleocytoplasmic shuttling of merlin in abiogenous vestibular schwannoma tissues. Methods Four paraffin imbedding vestibular Schwannoma samples were included in the study.The cyclins and merlin were analyzed by immunofluorescence at the same time,and the expression and location were synchronously observed with confocal laser microscopy(CLM) in a single schwannoma cell. Results Cyclins and merlin were perspicuously and synchronously presented in a single cell in vestibular schwannoma tissues.In early G1 phase of the tumor cell,merlin was mainly stained in the nucleus,followed by perinucleus and cytoplasm.In G1/S phase,merlin was concentrated in the perinucleus,less in the nucleus and cytoplasm.Merlin staining showed uniform distribution in the nucleus in G2/M phase,while was absent from the nucleus and concentrated in the perinucleus in late G2/M phase. Conclusion The expression of merlin and various kinds of cyclins can be synchronously presented in abiogenous vestibular schwannoma cells with immunofluorescence and CLM.Merlin is shuttling among the nucleus,cytoplasm and perinucleus along with the progression of cell cycle.

Abstract: Objective　To analyze the vaccination status of SARS-CoV-2 in children, and explore the relationship between SARS-CoV-2 vaccination and COVID-19 in children. Methods　A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 335 cases of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant infection from February 15, 2022 to March 18, 2022 in Shenzhen Third People's Hospital. Results　Among 335 children with SARS-CoV-2 infection, 174(51.9%) cases were vaccinated with the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine; 33(31.4%) cases were vaccinated in the 3-<6 years old group; 141(61.3%) cases were vaccinated in the 6-<14 years old group.
