Objective: To investigate the anti-myeloma cells specific immune activity induced by myeloma protein-pusled dendritic cells(DCs). Methods: DCs were obtained from peripheral blood(PB) of multiple myeloma(MM) patients after co-culture with GM-CSF, IL-4 and TNF-α. The phenotype of DCs was examined by flow cytometry. Host lymphocytes were stimulated with DCs pulsed with myeloma protein acquired from serum of MM patients on DEAE-celluose; lymphocytes treated with unpulsed DC served as control. [3H]-thymidine incorporation and 4 h 51Cr-release assay were used to detect the proliferation and cytotoxicity against different targets(auto myeloma cells, U266 cells) by T lymphocytes. Results: In vitro proliferation and cytotoxicity of T lymphocytes activated by myeloma protein pulsed-DCs were greater than those of T lymphocytes in the control group(P<0.01). T lymphocytes in neither of the 2 groups had notable cytotoxicity against U266 cells. Conclusion: DCs pulsed by myeloma protein can effectively induce specific cytotoxicity of T lymphocytes against myeloma cell.

Objective To understand the attitude of health workers towards people living with HIV and AIDS(PLWHA) and AIDS knowledge and desire for related training among them in selected hospitals in Beijing.Method Convenience sampling was used to select health workers from 32 hospitals of different levels in 4 districts within Beijing.Anonymous self-administrated questionnaires were used to collect the information regarding AIDS knowledge and desire for relevant training.Results A total of 1 292 health workers completed the questionnaire.They demonstrated a moderate level of general AIDS knowledge,but a low level of knowledge related to AIDS diagnosis and therapy.Of them 39.7% had received specialized AIDS training and 96% had strongly desire for such specialized training.Most health workers sympathized with PLWHA and understood their situation,while some of them were afraid of PLWHA and wanted to have minimal contact with PLWHA.91.3% of the health workers expressed that PLWHA should have the same rights to medical services.At the same time,49.2% of the health workers stated that they would not like to work in hospitals or departments which accepted PLWHA.80% of the health workers expressed concern over acquiring HIV infection in the workplace.52.7% of them thought that they had a risk of becoming infected in the workplace.Conclusion The level of AIDS knowledge among health workers in Beijing needs to be improved.Specialized training to enhance and develop health workers knowledge of prevention,diagnosis and treatment of AIDS is required.Most of the health workers do not discriminate against PLWHA,but they express concern over infection in the workplace.

Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) and tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase (TDO) catalyze the initial and rate limiting step in the catabolism of tryptophan, which is related to tumor immune tolerance and poor prognosis in patients. In this regard, two enzymes have become important therapeutic targets for tumor immunotherapy. So far, nine IDO1 inhibitors and three IDO1/TDO dual inhibitors have entered clinical trials. This review summarizes the research progress of IDO1 inhibitors, TDO inhibitors and IDO1/TDO dual inhibitors from the perspective of medicinal chemistry.

OBJECTIVE:To study the influencing factors of protocol deviation in drug clinical trial implementation,and pro-vide reference for improving the quality of drug clinical trial. METHODS:Quality verification was conducted for the drug clinical trial projects in the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University during 2010-2016,and protocol deviations in each year were retrospectively studied,classified and analyzed. Category,frequency,international and domestic pilot projects and the differences of protocol deviation after full-time research nurse participating in trail management were explored,and the measures were put forward. RESULTS:27 drug clinical trials were implemented in our hospital during 2010-2016,including 949 cases,176 cases with protocol deviation,accounting for 18.55％. Deviation protocol in drug clinical trial was decreased year by year for 7 years. The categories were mainly incompleteness of observation/records (30.11％),checking omission/broaden the window(28.41％),adverse drug events and improper combined medication (14.20％) and omission in drug management (11.93％). The proportion of protocol deviation with full-time research nurse participated was lower than the projects without full-time research nurse(11.11％ vs. 28.67％,P<0.01),and proportion of deviation protocol in international multi-center project was lower than the domestic projects(6.60％ vs. 28.84％,P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS:It is suggested to pointedly strengthen the weak links of drug clinical trial. For example,clinical trial institutions should establish the clinical trial data retention system,electronic data should be timely backed up in a different places,etc. Besides,clinical trial institutions should equip professional full-time research nurses as much as possible,learn the rigorous scientific experimental design,standard operational procedures and the authenticity of data pro-cessing from the international multi-center clinical trial projects to effectively reduce the incidence of deviation protocol and im-prove the quality of drug clinical trials.

BACKGROUND:TiNi shape memory alloy(TiNi-SMA)distractor can be buried completely,there is no time delay and it is different from other distractors previously used.Therefore,it is necessary to reevaluate the osteogenetic time and quality.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the quality of the alveolar ridge augmented by TiNi-SMA distractor by bone mineral density (BMD)and biodynamics tests of new-formed bone.DESIGN:Randomized controlled observation.SETTING:Department of Stomatology of General Hospital of Chinese PLA.MATERIALS:Twelve healthy adult male mongrel canines(ranged from 21 to 26 kg)were provided and bred by Medical Experimental Animal Center of General Hospital of Chinese PLA.All the animals were accorded with the requirements of the quarantine and animal ethnics.Self-made distractors were used in the study.XR-36 Dual Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry (Norland,USA)and 858 Mini Bionix Ⅱ Biomaterial Testing Machine(MTS,USA)were used in the study.METHODS:The experiments were performed at the Medical Experimental Animal Center of General Hospital of Chinese PLA from July 2000 to May 2004.The animals were grouped into group Ⅰ(3 months group)and group Ⅱ(6 months group)randomlv with 6 animals in each group.The left mandible was used as experimental side and the right was used as COntrol side.The canines were kilied after anaesthesia at 3 or 6 months later in both groups.After the mandible samples were cut,the BMD of three points in the distraction gap,above the distraction gap and below the distraction gap were measured by dual energy X-ray.Compressive biomechanics test was performed in the middle of the distraction area of the experimental side and the corresponding area of the control side to detect compressive stress and the modulus of elasticity.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:①BMD of the distraction area of the experimental side and the control side in the group Ⅰand group Ⅱ.②Compressive strength and modulus of elasticity of the mandibles of the experimental side and the control side.RESULTS:All of the 12 experimental canines were included in the final analysis,no drop-out.BMD determination:BMD was lower in above the distraction gap of the mandibles of the experimental side than in the control side in the group Ⅰ (t=-2.898,P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in BMD between both sides in the group Ⅱ(P＞0.05).Compressive biomechanics test:Compressive stress and the modulus of elasticity of the mandibles on the experimental side were lower than on the control side in the group Ⅰ(t=-3.274,-3.534,P＜0.05).All indexes increased by some degree in the group Ⅱ compared to the group Ⅰ (P＞0.05).CONCLUSION:The new bone is strong enough for later repair such as implantation after distraction osteogenesis using TiNi-SMA distractor.

Objective To explore the executive function in clinical subtypes of attention deficit hyperac?tivity disorder( ADHD) . Methods 19 children with ADHD/ inattentive type( ADHD?I) ,13children with ADHD/hyperactive?impulsive( ADHD?HI) 33 children with ADHD/combined type ( ADHD?C ) and 30 normal children were tested by Stroop test ( included Stroop C and Stroop CW) ,modified Wisconsin card sorting test( M?WCST) , tower of Hanoi,digital span and verbal fluency. Results The scores of Stroop C and Stroop CW,digit inverse reci?ting,tower of Hanoi and WCST in the children with ADHD were worse than those in normal control((104.8±4.0), (105.9±4.2),(104.8±3.7),(104.8±4.0), P<0.05;(84.0±9.2),(84.8±7.9),(78.2±7.8),(92.2±7.1), P<0.01;(4.0±1.8),(3.7±1.2),(3.8±1.5),(5.1±1.6), P<0.01;(3.0±1.0),(3.3±1.0),(2.7±1.3),(3.8±1.3), P<0.01;(4.1±1.6),(4.2±1.9),(4.3±2.1),(5.4±1.7), P<0.05;(6.6±3.2),(6.7±2.4),(8.0±2.9),(5.3± 2.4), P<0.01;(10.2±2.8),(11.1±3.8),(12.3±4.0),(9.4±3.2), P<0.05). The scores of Stroop CW in the chil?dren with ADHD?C were worse than those in other two subtypes(P<0.01). Conclusion The executive functions of the chil?dren with ADHD are impaired,including poor response inhibition,working memory,planning and cognitive flexibility. The dysfunction of response inhibition is possible an index to discriminate the subtypes of ADHD.

Objective To investigate the effects of different doses of propofol on expression of synaptophysin (SYP) mRNA and protein in the hippocampus of mentally depressed rats after electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) .Methods Fifty adult male SD rats weighing 200-250 g were randomly divided into 5 groups (n = 10 each): group Ⅰ control (group C); group D mental depression (group D) ; group Ⅲ , Ⅳ , Ⅴ propofol 90, 110, 130 mg/kg + ECT (group M_1, M_2, M_3). Mental depression was induced by isolation and chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) in group Ⅱ-Ⅴ . Group M_1 , M_2 and M_3 received intraperitoneal (IP) propofol 90, 110 and 130 mg/kg respectively + ECT once a day ×7 consecutive days while group C and D received IP normal saline instead of propofol. The rats underwent open field test and sucrose liquid consumption test the day before and after mental depression was established and one day after treatment. The rats were killed after the last test for determination of expression of SYP mRNA (by RT-PCR) and protein (by immuno-histochemistry) in the hippocampus. Results The ambulation scores, rearing scores, grooming time and sucrose consumption percentage were significantly decreased while the center,grid detention time (CDT) was significantly increased in group Ⅱ-Ⅴ as compared with control group indicating mental depression was successfully induced. The ambulation scores, rearing scores, grooming time, sucrose consumption percentage, SYP mRNA and protein expression were significantly increased while CDT was significantly decreased after treatment in group M_1 and M_2 as compared with group D indicating that propofol 90 or 110 mg/kg combined with ECT was effective for the treatment of mental depression.Conclusion Propofol 90 or 110 mg/kg combined with ECT is effective in treating mental depression while proprofol 130 mg/kg combined with ECT is not. Excessive inhibition of SYP expression in hippocampus by large dose of propofol may explain the mechanism.`
