Objective To investigate the value of mix recombinant antigen in schistosomiasis diagnosis. Methods The recombinant antigens of SjC23 (HD),SjC21.7 and SjCMP10 were expressed in vitro and purified by the affinity chromatography method. The efficacies of soluble egg antigen (SEA),single recombinant antigen and mix recombinant antigen for schistosomiasis diagnosis by Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay were compared. Results The diagnostic efficacy was the same when the antibody IgG of the same group sera of schistosomiasis was detected by different quantities of 2.5 ?g/ml and 7.5 ?g/ml of SEA immobilized on microplate, and their absorbency A was the same, but there was a significant difference in the diagnostic efficacies between single recombinant antigen and mix recombinant antigen when the antibody IgG of the same group sera of schistosomiasis was detected by the same quantity of single recombinant antigen or mix recombinant antigen immobilized on microplate, the absorbency A of mix antigen reacted with the sera of schistosomiasis was significant higher than that of the single recombinant. The positive rates were very similar when 39 sera of acute schistosomiasis,80 sera of chronic schistosomiasis and 27 sera of advanced schistosomiasis were detected by SEA or mix recombinant antigen by ELISA in the same time. No cross-reaction presented when 20 clonorchiasis sera were detected by the mix recombinant antigen and no false positive presented when 40 of healthy sera were detected by the mix recombinant antigen. Conclusion The schistosomiasis diagnostic method by using the mix recombinant antigen has been established, which is helpful for improving the efficacy of schistosomiasis diagnosis.

With the development of the economy and technological progress,more and more animal-derived mesh products are being utilized in the medical field for tissue and organ repair and replacement.Owing to the complexity of their structure and production process,these animal-derived meshes still face several challenges in practical applications,such as insufficient mechanical strength,rapid degradation rates,and the detection of harmful leachable substances.Among these challenges,the production process is a key factor affecting product quality.This paper reviews the key aspects of the production process and quality control for animal-derived meshes in China,offering new insights for the quality control and regulatory oversight of such products.

Malignant tumors pose a serious threat to human health and are one of the main causes of human death worldwide.In order to further improve the therapeutic outcomes of malignant tumors and prolong patients'survival time,clarifying the pathogenesis of malignant tumors and searching for new diagnostic and therapeutic targets become particularly important.It has been found that the occurrence and development of malignant tumors are the results of the interaction between tumor cells and the tumor microenvironment(TME).Versican,encoded by the VCAN gene,is a type of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan belonging to the exogenous lectin proteoglycan family.It is a major component of the extracellular matrix and plays an important role in embryonic development and inflammatory responses.As an important component of TME,versican is abnormally expressed in various tumor tissues such as renal cell carcinoma,hepatocellular carcinoma,and gastric cancer,and is closely related to the clinical pathological characteristics and prognosis of the patients.It is a potential biomarker for early diagnosis and prognostic evaluation of tumors.Further researches have shown that versican can promote tumor development in a number of ways,such as promoting tumor cell proliferation,invasion and metastasis,inhibiting tumor cell apoptosis,promoting tumor angiogenesis,and inhibiting anti-tumor immune responses.This article reviews the current research status of the expression and biological effects of versican in malignant tumors,aiming to provide reference for subsequent research,clinical diagnosis and treatment of tumors.

OBJECTIVETo explore the morbidity, burdens caused and risk factors of injuries among children and to provide information for policy making on prevention.

METHODSBy PPS sampling method, we selected 28 000 households in Beijing and using a questionnaire developed by UNICEF, TASC and China CDC.

RESULTSThe morbidity of child injury in Beijing was 2.25%, higher than that of adults (1.56%) with 6-9 year group the highest (2.83% ). The morbidity of boys was 3.04% higher than that of girls (1.37%). Among the 7 death cases, 3 were caused by injury(2 RTA, 1 drowning). The three leading causes of injuries were fall, animal bite and road traffic accident in children. Among children aged 0-5 years, fall, animal and burn/machine injuries were the leading causes. Among children aged 0-5 years, the leading causes were hurt by animals, fall and RTA with the leading causes as fall, sprain and RTA. The average medical cost of injury cases was 1617.57 Yuan. There were 3500 children (injured orphan) whose parents were injured leading to death or disability in Beijing in 2003.

CONCLUSIONInjury was the leading cause of child deaths in Beijing with children of 6-9 years old having the highest morbidity with RTA the most severe type of injuries in Beijing which affects both children and their parents.

Objective To study the population genetic structure and phylogenetic relationships by combining Y-STR haplotype genetic information from the Han population in Dalian with 32 domestic and foreign groups.Methods Blood samples of 958 Han male volunteers from Dalian were collected.Genetic typing of 42 genetic loci was completed using Y-STR fluorescent reagent kits and capillary electrophoresis.Related forensic parameters were calculated.Nei's standard genetic distances among 33 populations based on 17 Y-STR loci were computed,in order to create a principal coordinate analysis as well as construct a phylogenetic tree.Results The analysis of genetic polymorphisms at 42 Y-STR loci revealed 30 unconventional alleles at 10 loci.Genetic analysis of the population based on 17 Y-STR loci confirmed that Dalian's Han population had the closest genetic distance to the Anshan's Han population,followed by populations from Henan,Heilongjiang,Jilin,Shandong,and Chongqing.Furthermore,the genetic distances between the Han population in Dalian and the Qiang population in Beichuan or the Miao population in Guizhou were relatively closer than that to the Manchu population living in Liaoning.Conclusion The genetic distance between the Han population in Dalian and other groups is not entirely proportional to ethnicities and geographical proximity.Both population migration and ethnic assimilation or isolation may have influence on it.

Objective:To discuss whether platelet distribution width (PDW) can effectively predict the prognosis of neuroblastoma (NB).Methods:The clinical data of 67 NB patients in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University between January 2014 and January 2018 were retrospectively analyzed.They were divided into low PDW group and high PDW group according to the PDW level, and the differences in clinical indicators between the 2 groups were compared.The prognostic effects of PDW were assessed by using the Kaplan- Meier method and Cox regression model. Results:Among the 67 patients, 41 cases were male, 26 cases were female, with the ratio of male to female being 1.58∶1.00, and the average age was 44 months (2-156 months). Five cases were in stage Ⅰ, 1 case in stage Ⅱ, 15 cases in stage Ⅲ and 46 cases in stage Ⅳ.At the first time of diagnosis, there were 14 cases with age ≤ 18 months, 53 cases with age > 18 months, 47 cases with neuron specific enolase (NSE) level ≥ 100 μg/L, 20 cases with NSE level<100 μg/L.The median follow-up time was 20.4 months.At the end of follow-up, 35 cases died and 32 cases survived.There was no statistical difference in age, gender, primary site of tumor, tumor stage and mean platelet volume between the low PDW group and the high PDW group (all P>0.05). The proportion of high-risk patients, the level of NSE, bone marrow metastasis rate, MYCN gene amplification rate and the red blood cell distribution width in the high PDW group were significantly higher than those in the low PDW group, but the high PDW group had a lower level of thrombocytocrit than the low PDW group, and the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05). Survival analysis revealed that the 2-year overall survival of the low PDW group was significantly higher than that of the high PDW group (69.8% vs.25.3%, χ2=15.761, P<0.05). Univariate analysis showed that NSE ( HR=6.606, 95% CI: 2.018-21.620), MYCN gene ( HR=1.977, 95% CI: 0.794-4.919), tumor risk stratification ( HR=5.926, 95% CI: 1.416-24.794), PDW ( HR=4.036, 95% CI: 1.957-8.322), and red blood cell distribution width ( HR=1.120, 95% CI: 1.005-1.249) were the adverse factors affecting the overall survival, and thrombocytocrit was a protective factor for the prognosis of NB.Multivariate analysis indicated that PDW was an independent risk factor of NB ( HR=2.524, 95% CI: 1.017-6.264, P=0.046). Conclusions:There is a good consistency between the increase of PDW and the known prognostic risk factors, elevated tumor markers and bone marrow metastasis.Increased PDW is associated with poor prognosis in NB patients, and PDW is an independent risk factor for the poor prognosis of NB.

Bile acids(BAs)are synthesized by the liver from cholesterol through several complementary pathways and aberrant cholesterol metabolism plays pivotal roles in the pathogeneses of cholesterol gallbladder polyps(CGP)and cholesterol gallstones(CGS).To date,there is neither systematic study on BAs profile of CGP or CGS,nor the relationship between them.To explore the metabolomics profile of plasma BAs in healthy volunteers,CGP and CGS patients,an ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(UPLC-MS/MS)method was developed and validated for simultaneous determination of 42 free and conjugated BAs in human plasma.The developed method was sensitive and reproducible to be applied for the quantification of BAs in the investigation of plasma samples.The results show that,compared to healthy volunteers,CGP and CGS were both characterized by the significant decrease in plasma BAs pool size,furthermore CGP and CGS shared aberrant BAs metabolic characteristics.Cheno-deoxycholic acid,glycochenodeoxycholic acid,λ-muricholic acid,deoxycholic acid,and 7-ketolithocholic acid were shared potential markers of these two cholesterol gallbladder diseases.Subsequent analysis showed that clinical characteristics including cysteine,ornithine and body mass index might be closely related to metabolisms of certain BA modules.This work provides metabolomic information for the study of gallbladder diseases and analytical methodologies for clinical target analysis and efficacy evaluation related to BAs in medical institutions.
