Objective To learn the awareness rate of HIV/Syphilis knowledge,condom usage,group behaviors and the infections among men who have sex with men (MSM)in Zhuhai and provide scientific foundation for preparing control measures.Methods The internet community was used for calling MSM to join the research.A MSM survey questionnaire was used to collect messages in the place of HIV Voluntary Counseling & Testing(VCT).The blood samples were collected to proceed biological detection.Re-sults Total 247 MSMs were tested,positive rates of HIV,TP specific antibody and non-specific antibody were 8.10% (20/247), 13.36%(33/247)and 10.72% (24/247).The separation between cognition and behavior was common existed in such population. HIV/syphilis infection rates were significant different between MSMs who had multiple sexual partners and those who did not. Conclusion Because the high risk behaviors are commonly existed among MSM in Zhuhai,the prevalence rates of HIV/Syphilis in them are high.It is necessary promote the screening of HIV/Syphilis,enhance the health education of disease control and block the transmission to develop a safe awareness and behaviors in MSM.

OBJECTIVETo compare the clinical efficacy between acupuncture and intravenous administration of lipoic acid and alprostadil for distal symmetric multiple peripheral neuropathy of diabetes mellitus.

METHODSSixty patients were randomly divided into an acupuncture group (31 cases) and a medication group (29 cases). Patients in the two groups received basic treatment to control blood sugar within a safe range. On this basis, patients in the acupuncture group were treated with acupuncture at Geshu (BL 17), Weiwanxiashu (EX-B 3), Ganshu (BL 18), Pishu (BL 20), Shenshu (BL 23), Zusanli (ST 36), Taixi (KI 3), ashi points, etc. Patients in the medication group were treated with intravenous administration of lipoic acid (0.6 g) and alprostadil (10 mg). The treatment was given once a day, 10 days for a course of treatment; there was an interval of 2 days between courses, and totally 3 courses were given. The score of peripheral neuropathy of diabetes mellitus, the change of nerve conduction: velocity and clinical efficacy before and after treatment in the two groups were observed.

RESULTSAfter treatment, the score of peripheral neuropathy was significantly reduced in the two groups (both P < 0.05), which was more significant in the acupuncture group (P < 0.05). After treatment, the sensory nerve conduction velocity (SNCV) and motor nerve conduction velocity (MNCV) of median nerve and common peroneal nerve were significantly increased in the two groups (all P < 0.05). Compared between two groups, the SNCV and MNCV of common peroneal nerve in the acupuncture group were significantly superior to those in the medication group (both P < 0.05); the MNCV of median nerve in the acupuncture group was significantly superior to that in the medication group (P < 0.05); the SNCV of median nerve in the acupuncture group was not significantly different from that in the medication group (P > 0.05). The total effective rate was 83.9% (26/31) in the acupuncture group, which was significantly superior to 62.1% (18/29) in the medication group (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONAcupuncture and conventional medication both have satisfied effects for distal symmetric multiple peripheral neuropathy of diabetes mellitus, and acupuncture is superior to medication on improving clinical signs of sensory disorder, reflection disturbance and muscle weakness, nerve conduction and clinical curative effect.

METHODS ：The information of the patients who received STS injection from Jan. 2016 to Dec. 2017 were collected from a Grade 3 hospital. According to relevant suggestions in drug package inserts ，drug utilization rationality was evaluated ，and single-factor and multi-factor analysis on the risk and influential factors for ADR/ADE were performed by group design and individual matching to examine their correlation. RESULTS ：Totally 3 283 patients were included in the study. The drug use frequency were less than 1.5，and the drug utilization indexes were less than 1.0，suggesting that the hospital using STS injection was basically reasonable. Irrational use of drugs mainly included that inappropriate indications （46.48％），unreasonable solvent selection（15.84％），and excessive concentration （2.71％）. Patients with renal insufficiency received STS injection ，and then the risk of ADR/ADE increased by correlation analysis （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS ：Irrational use of STS injection in clinics existed ， mainly like off-label drug use ，excessive concentration ，irrational solvent selection. Drug use evaluation and monitoring should be strengthened. For patients with renal insufficiency ，it is necessary to prevent the occurrence of ADR/ADE ．

ObjectiveTo observe the recovery of proprioception of the affected ankle over time after lateral ankle sprain accepting routine rehabilitation. MethodsFrom June, 2020 to June, 2022, 18 patients with lateral ankle sprain in Kunshan Rehabilitation Hospital underwent routine rehabilitation for twelve weeks. They were measured active and passive position sense of bilateral ankles using an isokinetic dynamometer before treatment, and four, eight and twelve weeks after treatment, respectively. ResultsThe active presentation difference of affected ankle reduced after treatment (F = 22.533, P < 0.001), but it was more than that of the healthy ankle at the same time (t > 4.419, P < 0.001). No significant improvement was found in passive presentation difference of affected ankle after treatment (F = 1.175, P > 0.05), and it was not significantly different from those of the healthy ankle at the same time (|t| < 0.646, P > 0.05). ConclusionProprioception of affected ankle has been impaired after lateral ankle sprain, and it can be recovered after rehabilitation, but cannot achieve the healthy level even after three months of training. Passive position sense as an index of proprioception needs more researches.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the efficacy and safety of decitabine combined with half-course pre-excitation for the treatment of elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). METHODS: 44 cases of newly diagnosed elderly AML admitted in our hospital from January 2016 to December 2017 were selected for the retrospective analysis. The patients were randomly divided into 2 groups: pre-excitation therapy group as control and combined therapy group. The 22 patients in pre-excitation therapy group reccived the routine complete course pre-excitation treatment, 22 patients in combined therapy group received the desitabine combined the half course pre-excitation treatment. The therapentic efficacy and adverse reactions during treatment were compared between 2 groups. All patients were followed-up and the survival rate at 6,12 and 24 months was compared between 2 groups. RESULTS: The remission rate(RR) in the combined therapy group was 72.73%, and that in the control group was 50.00%, with significant statistically difference (P<0.05). The median survival time in combined therapy group (17.82±4.19 months) and control group (12.43±3.71 months) was statistically significant (P<0.05). The rate of adverse reactions of digestive tract in combined therapy group was 40.91%, which was higher than that in control group (18.18%), and the difference of two groups was statistically significant (P<0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions in blood system and bone marrow suppression in combined therapy group was 9.09% and 68.18%, which were lower than those in control group (27.27% and 95.45%), with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of liver dysfunction, cardiac insufficiency and hair loss between the two groups (P>0.05). The incidence of pulmonary infection, intestinal infection and other complications in combined therapy group was 13.64%, which was lower than that in control group 31.82%, and the difference of two groups was statistically significant (P<0.05).

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the predictive effect of platelet activation index expression before and after adenosine bisphosphate activation on bleeding risk in patients with primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). METHODS: Eighty-nine patients with ITP admitted in our hospital from January 2017 to October 2018 were selected and inrolled in ITP group, the bleeding scoreing and grading were performed by using the ITP-BAT for ITP patients, then 89 ITP patients were divided into 4 subgroups: nothing bleeding symptom group, mild bleeding symprom group, mode rate bleeding symptom group and severe bleeding symptom group according to bleeding scores and grades obtained from ITP-BAT detection. At the same time, 22 persons underwent the health physical examination were selected and enrolled in control group. The adenosine diphosphate (ADP) was used as activator for all patients and controls. The flow cytonetry was used to analyze the expression of platelet membranc glyco protein (GPⅠb, GPⅡb /Ⅲ a) and P-selectin before and after ADP activation, the multiple linear person's correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation of bleeding degree of ITP patients before and after ADP acbivation with the expression levels of GPⅠb, GPⅡb/Ⅲa and P-selectin. RESULTS: After the ADP activation, the expression level of GPⅠb significantly decreased, while the expression levels of GPⅠb, GPⅡb/Ⅲ a and P-selectin significantly increased in control group, nothing bleeding symptom group and mild bleeding symptom group; but the expression level of GPⅠb significantly increased, while the expression level of GPⅡb/Ⅲ a significantly decreased in moderate and severe bleeding symptom group, the both differences were statistically significant (P＜0.05). however, the expression level of P-selectin in moderate and severe bleeding symptom groups before and after ADP activation was not statistivally significant (P＞0.05). Before ADP activation, the expression level of GPⅠb in ITP subgroups was lower than that in control group, the expression level of GPⅡb/Ⅲ a in ITP subgroups was higher than that in control group, the expression level of P-selectin in moderate and severe bleeding symptom groups was higher than that in control group (P＜0.05). After ADP activation, the expression levels of GPⅠb and P-selectin in ITP subgroups both were lower than those in control group, the expression level of GPⅡb/Ⅲa in ITP subgroups was higher than that in control group (P＜0.05). The comparison among ITP subgroups showed that before ADP activation, the expression level of GPⅠb in moderate and severe bleeding symptom groups was lower than that in nothing bleeding symotom and mild bleeding symptom groups, while the expression levels of GPⅡb/Ⅲa and P-selectin were higher than those in nothing bleeding symptom and mild bleeding symptom groups (P＜0.05), however, after ADP activation, the expression level of GPⅠb in moderate and severe bleeding symptom groups was higher than that in nothing bleeding symptom and mild bleeding symptom groups, while the expression levels of GPⅡb/Ⅲ a and P-selection in moderate and severe bleeding symptom groups were lower than those in nothing and mild bleeding symptom groups (P＜0.05). The correlation analysis showed that before ADP activation, the expression levels of GPⅠb and GPⅡb/Ⅲa positivdy correlated with the bleeding risk (r=0.483, 0.504), and the P-selectin not correlated with the bleeding risk (r=0.000); however, after ADP activation, the expression level of GPⅠb and GPⅡb/Ⅲ a negatively correlated with the bleeding risk (r=-0.627, -0.406, -0.108). CONCLUSION The expression level of platelet activation indicators before and after ADP activation is of certain value for prevention of bleeding risk in ITP patients and can be used as a reference indicator for the treatment and efficacy evaluation.

Objective To evaluate the performance of FibroTouch in combination with four hepatic fibrosis biomarkers for assessment of the degree of hepatic fibrosis among patients with chronic schistosomiasis-induced liver disorders. Methods A total of 63 patients with chronic schistosomiasis-induced liver diseases admitted to The Third People’s Hospital of Kunshan City from January to March 2021 were enrolled as the observation group, while 50 healthy volunteers receiving health examinations in the hospital during the study period were randomly selected as the control group. The liver stiffness measurement (LSM) was determined using the FibroTouch technique, and the serum levels of four hepatic fibrosis biomarkers were detected using chemilumi-nescence immunoassay, including type IV collagen (IV-C), type III procollagen (PC-III), hyaluronidase (HA) and laminin (LN). The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves of LSM and four hepatic fibrosis biomarkers alone and in combination for assessing the degree of hepatic fibrosis among patients with chronic schistosomiasis-induced liver disorders were plotted and the area under the ROC curve (AUC) was estimated to examine the value of LSM and four hepatic fibrosis biomarkers alone and in combination for assessing the degree of hepatic fibrosis. Results There were 63 subjects in the observation group, including 28 men and 35 women, and the participants had a mean age of (65.34 ± 12.56) years and a mean body mass index (BMI) of (24.47 ± 11.05) kg/m². There were 50 subjects in the control group, including 22 men and 28 women, and the participants had a mean age of (64.28 ± 13.10) years and a mean BMI of (25.12 ± 11.64) kg/m². There were no significant differences between the observation and control groups in terms of gender ratio (χ² = 0.002, P > 0.05), age (t = 0.437, P > 0.05) or BMI (t = 0.303, P > 0.05). The LSM [(8.65 ± 5.22) vs. (3.24 ± 1.10) kPa; t = 8.013, P < 0.05], IV-C [(51.80 ± 9.45) vs. (30.10 ± 10.34) ng/L; t = 11.506, P < 0.05], PC-III [(77.28 ± 17.22) vs. (48.62 ± 9.54) ng/L; t = 11.224, P < 0.05], HA [(39.55 ± 5.32) vs. (84.89 ± 10.34) ng/L; t = 30.158, P < 0.05] and LN [(99.47 ± 7.37) vs. (61.93 ± 9.80) ng/L; t = 22.496, P < 0.05] were significantly greater in the observation group than in the control group, and Spearman correlation analysis showed that the degree of liver fibrosis positively correlated with LSM (r_s = 0.675, P < 0.01), IV-C (r_s = 0.421, P < 0.01), PC-III (r_s = 0.517, P < 0.01), HA (r_s = 0.550, P < 0.01) and LN (r_s = 0.539, P < 0.01) among patients with chronic schistosomiasis-induced liver diseases. ROC curve analysis revealed that the AUC of LSM for assessment of the hepatic fibrosis degree was 0.884 (P < 0.001), and the LSM cutoff, sensitivity and specificity were 11.75 kPa, 71.43% and 84.00% at the highest Youden index, respectively. In addition, the AUC of four hepatic fibrosis biomarkers for assessment of the hepatic fibrosis degree was 0.577 to 0.670, with 70.174 to 115.237 ng/L cutoff values, 17.46% to 68.25% sensitivity and 71.01% to 96.00% specificity. In addition, the sensitivity and specificity of LSM combined with four hepatic fibrosis biomarkers were 92.06% and 95.07% for assessment of the hepatic fibrosis degree among patients with chronic schistosomiasis-induced liver diseases. Conclusion FibroTouch in combination with detection of four hepatic fibrosis biomarkers has a high sensitivity and specificity for assessing the degree of hepatic fibrosis among patients with chronic schistosomiasis-induced liver diseases, which deserves widespread clinical uses.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy of the second-line nilotinib and third-line dasatinib on chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) with failed first- and second-line treatments, and analyze the influencing factors of the efficacy. METHODS: Selected 83 patients in The Third People's Hospital of Kunshan City, Jiangsu Province with CML who were treated with nilotinib as the second-line treatment after the failure of the first-line treatment with imatinib as the second-line treatment group (referred to as the second-line group) from January 2014 to December 2018, and 61 CML patients who were treated by dasatinib as the third-line treatment group (referred to as the third-line group) after the failure of the second-line treatment with nilotinib; the first-line treatment with imatinib failed, but due to various reasons, the patients were fully after being informed of the possible serious consequences of not changing the drug treatment, 37 CML patients who were still required to continue imatinib treatment served as the control group. The hematological, genetic and molecular responses of each group were compared for 3, 6, and 24 months of treatment. LogistiC regression was used to analyze the factors affecting the second and third line curative effects. RESULTS: The three groups had statistically significant differences in the rates of achieving CHR, MCyR, and MMR at 3, 6, and 12 months of treatment (P<0.05). Compared the two groups, the CHR rates of the second-line group at 3, 6, and 12 months of treatment were 100.00%, 97.59%, and 95.18%, respectively; higher than the third-line group's 90.16%, 86.89%, 83.61% and the control group's 83.78%, 75.68% and 72.97%; the CHR rate of the third-line group was higher than that of the control group at 6 and 12 months of treatment. The rates of reaching MCyR at 3, 6, and 12 months after treatment in the second-line group were 87.95%, 93.98% and 93.98%, respectively, while those in the third-line group were 80.33%, 88.52% and 86.89%, which were higher than those of the control group of 67.57%, 64.86% and 48.65%. The rates of achieving MMR at 3, 6, and 12 months of treatment in the second-line group were 19.28%, 33.72% and 60.24%, respectively, and those in the third-line group were 11.48%, 26.23% and 49.18%, which were higher than those of the control group of 0.00%, 2.70% and 0.00%; The rate of reaching MMR within 12 months of treatment in the second-line group was higher than that of the third-line group, and the differences was statistically significant (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the rate of reaching MCyR between the second-line group and the third-line group at 3, 6, and 12 months, and the rate of reaching MMR at 3 and 6 months (P>0.05). The incidence of nausea and vomiting among the three main non-hematological adverse reactions, and the incidence of grade 1~2 anemia among the hematological adverse reactions were statistically significant (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of rash, eyelid edema, diarrhea, thrombocytopenia, leukopenia and neutropenia in the three groups (P>0.05). The incidence of nausea and vomiting and grade 1~2 anemia in the second-line group and the third-line group were higher than that of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). There were statistically significant differences in Sokal score, medication compliance, and hematological adverse reactions between the MMR group and the non-MMR group (P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that dose reduction or withdrawal during the treatment period, and grade 3~4 hematological adverse reactions were the main factors affecting the second and third line curative effects (OR=22.160, 2.715, 95% CI=2.795-93.027, 1.882-48.834). CONCLUSION The second-line nilotinib and the third-line dasatinib have a better effect on CML patients who have failed the first and second-line treatments. Grade 3~4 hematological adverse reactions, dose reduction or withdrawal are risk factors that affect the efficacy of second and third-line treatments.

Objective: To evaluate the diagnostic value of three-dimensional multi-slice spiral computed tomography (CT) imaging in Crohn's disease(CD) of small intestine and its active and remission stages. Methods: The clinical and CT data of 34 patients with Crohn's disease confirmed by digestive endoscopy were retrospectively analyzed. According to whether the lesions were active, the patients were divided into active group (25 cases) and remission group (9 cases). The difference of CT signs between the two groups was compared. Chi square test was used to evaluate the diagnostic efficiency of CT three-dimensional imaging for polyps and their activity evaluation of Crohn's disease. Results: The incidences of intestinal wall stratification, moderate enhancement, severe enhancement, ulcer, cellulitis, lymph node enlargement and wood comb sign in active group were higher than those in remission group (χ²=20.193, 9.018, 4.986, 3.947, 9.551, 4.986, 6.766, 4.986 respectively, P<0.05). The incidence of intestinal wall monolayer thickening, non-enhancement, mild enhancement and abdominal abscess in remission group was higher than that in active group, with significant difference (χ²=15.092, 13.768, 25.336, 16.996, P<0.05). while there were no significant difference between the two groups in the incidence of pneumoperitoneum, intestinal stenosis and enlargement (P>0.05). Conclusions Spiral CT three-dimensional reconstruction imaging can show the intestinal wall thickening, intestinal lesions and parenteral complications of Crohn's disease comprehensively, carefully and intuitively, and play an important role in guiding clinical treatment by evaluating the active and remission stages of CD.
