Objective: To compare the advantages and disadvantages of three staining methods of HBV. Methods: Normal Liver tissue and HBV-infected, HCV-infected ,or dually infected (HBV and HCV) liver tissues were selected for this study. Formalin- fixed, paraffin-embedded sections(4 ?m) were prepared. Each of the liver tissue specimens was detected by three staining methods, including immunohistochemical methods ,Shikata’s orcein stain and Victoria blue stain,respectively. Results: In the three methods , all of six HBV -infected cases showed intense staining, and three cases with dual infection (HBV and HCV) were weakly positive. However, both normal and HCV-infected liver tissues showed no staining. HBsAg stained dark brown with Immunohistochemical stain; HBsAg containing ground-glass hepatocytes stained magenta with Shikata’s orcein stain; HBsAg stained blue with Victoria blue. Conclusion: Each of three methods has its own advantages and disadvantages: high specificity and sensitivity, but high cost for immunohistochemical methods;complicated and overelabrate procedure for preparation of solutions, lower specificity and sensitivity,but low cost, for special staining methods.

Objective To understand the present condition of preclinical dental undergraduate in-terns' AIDS-related knowledge. Methods The questionnaire was designed referring to domestic and foreign relevant questionnaires. The cluster sampling method was used to conduct the questionnaire survey among the undergraduates who started their clinical internship in July 2016 in three domestic colleges, using SPSS 14.0 statistical software to analyze it. Results In this survey, 144 questionnaires were distributed, and 144 ones were filled out and sent back. The survey results suggested that 97.22% (140) of interns held a posi-tive attitude towards aiding HIV-infected patients despite that 96.53% (139) of interns knew that dental medical staff was considered to be highly susceptible with HIV. In spite of the fact that most interns knew AIDS-related knowledge and protection measures, 40.28% (58) of interns were not clear about incubation period of AIDS, and the average awareness of children's AIDS and methods to disinfect HIV-infected dental instruments was less than half in the interns. Meanwhile it was found that 86.81% (125) of interns didn't perform well in terms of complying with the principles of confidentiality in AIDS prevention and treatment. Conclusion Dental clinical interns' attitudes towards AIDS-infected patients should be praised. Further-more, they should accept education about infection control to have a deeper understanding about AIDS-related clinical manifestations and legal knowledge in order to reduce the probability of nosocomial infec-tion of AIDS.

OBJECTIVETo discuss the clinical effects of open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) for treatment of patients with Lisfranc injury combined the second metatarsal base comminuted fracture.
METHODSFrom March 2007 to June 2012, 7 patients with Lisfranc injury combined the second metatarsal base comminuted fracture were treated including 5 males and 2 female aged from 22 to 51 years old (means 42 years), 4 of sprain and 3 of traffic injury. According Myerson classification, there was 1 case of type A, 3 of type B and 3 of type C. Kirschner wire was used to fix Lisfranc ligament placing from the medial cuneiform bone to the second metatarsal base during the operation. After the operation American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) criteria system were applied to evaluate the foot and ankle function. Preoperative and postoperative AP, lateral and oblique X-ray and CT scan were collected for radiographic evaluation.
RESULTSAll patients were followed up from 12 to 20 months (16.8 months in average). According to AOFAS criteria system, 3 cases were excellent result,3 good, 1 fair. All the wounds were primary healing without skin necrosis, infection, Kirschner loose,broken, or other complications.
CONCLUSIONKirschner wire had good clinical efficacy for fixing Lisfranc ligament injury with the second metatarsal base comminuted fracture, and could avoid arthrodesis.

Objective:To study the effect of mindfulness-based training intervention on clinical efficacy in patients with nitrous oxide(laughing gas) addiction.Methods:From June 2019 to June 2020, sixty-six patients with nitrous oxide addiction in Beijing Gaoxin Hospital were selected and randomly divided into experimental group( n=33) and control group( n=33). The control group received Taijiquan training and physical training, while the experimental group added mindfulness-based training intervention on the basis of Taijiquan training and physical training.Symptom checklist 90 (SCL-90) scores and visual analog scales (VAS) craving scores were compared between the two groups at admission and 8 weeks after treatment.SPSS 22.0 software was used for statistical analysis.Independent sample t test and paired sample t test were used to compare the differences between groups and within groups. Results:(1)Before treatment, there were no significant differences in subscale scores of SCL-90 between the two groups except for depression factor((2.45±0.86), (2.03±0.46), t=2.474, P<0.05). After treatment, the subscale scores of somatization((1.38±0.35), (1.68±0.34), t=-3.656, P<0.05), phobic anxiety((1.49±0.37), (1.81±0.30), t=-3.993, P<0.05), paranoid ideation((1.50±0.47), (1.88±0.31), t=-3.898, P<0.05) and psychotism((1.34±0.54), (1.55±0.27), t=-3.094, P<0.05) of SCL-90 in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in the control group.(2)Before treatment, there was no significant difference in VAS craving score between the two groups( t=0.857, P=0.395). After treatment, the score of VAS in the experimental group was significantly lower than that in the control group( t=27.427, P<0.05). Conclusion:Mindfulness training intervention can effectively improve the clinical symptoms of patients with nitrous oxide addiction, which is worthy of clinical application.

OBJECTIVETo analyze the relationship between the primary mutation at np11778 and the secondary mutations at np9804, np13708, np13730, np15257 in three Chinese pedigrees with Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) and to detect the effects of the mutations on LHON.
METHODSThirty-seven maternal individuals from three LHON pedigrees and forty-seven normal controls were involved in this study. Polymerase chain reaction-single strand conformation polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) and DNA sequencing were used to detect the mutations in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA).
RESULTSAll patients and their maternal relatives had the np11778 mtDNA primary mutation. None had the secondary mutations at np9804, np13708 and np13730 and np15257. DNA sequencing of the PCR fragment revealed six new point mutations at np13759, np13928, np13942, np15301, np15323 and np15326.
CONCLUSIONAll three Chinese pedigrees with LHON had the mtDNA11778 primary mutation. The frequency of mutation at np13759 in Chinese patients with LHON is higher than that in normal Chinese controls. These findings indicate that np13759 is a new secondary mutation of LHON in Chinese.

Objective To study the dynamic changes of the intestinal function of neurogenic bowel dysfunction rats caused by spi-nal cord injury using X-ray radiography. Methods Twenty-four female Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into control group (n=12) and spinal cord injury group (n=12). The T10spinal cord injury model was established using aneurysm clip (70 grams calibration force) for 60 seconds. The control group exposed the dura only. X-ray Barium was used to observe the dynamic changes of in-testinal function, and HE staining was used to observe the pathology of the colon before and four weeks after modeling. Results Compared with the control group, gastric emptying and intestinal transit function significantly reduced in the spinal cord injury group (P<0.05). Conclusion The spinal cord injury model can be successfully duplicated with aneurysm clip in rats; neurogenic bowel dysfunction occurs after spinal cord injury, gastric emptying and intestinal transit function are weakened.

OBJECTIVETo study the clinical outcome, adverse effect and treatment cost of homoharringtonine (HHT) in combination with all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) and arsenic trioxide (AS2O3) for newly diagnosed with patients acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL).
METHODSClinical data of treatment of newly diagnosed patients with APL in experimental group (HHT + ATRA + AS2O3, n = 14) and control group \[Idarubicin (IDA) + ATRA + AS2O3, n = 21\] were analyzed retrospectively. The therapeutic effects, side effects and costs during induction therapy were compared between the two groups.
RESULTS(1) The complete remission (CR) rate were 92.9% (13/14) and 95.2% (20/21) in experimental group and control group, respectively. The time to achieve CR were (28.1 ± 3.8) and (31.7 ± 4.2) days, respectively (P > 0.05). The negative rate of PML-RARα fusion gene at the time of CR were 76.9% (10/13) and 75.0% (15/20), respectively, and that in CR patient at the end of the first cycle treatment were 100.0% (13/13) and 95.0% (19/20), respectively (P > 0.05). (2) 5-year overall survival (OS) rate were (92.6 ± 0.6)% and (89.9 ± 0.5)%, respectively (P > 0.05), 5-year disease free survival (DFS) rate were 100.0% and (86.8 ± 0.6)%, respectively (P > 0.05). (3) During induction therapy, the incidence of infection in experimental and control group were 23.1% (3/13), 60.0% (12/20), respectively (P < 0.05). The amount of platelet transfusion were (54.7 ± 29.6) and (76.5 ± 25.6) units, respectively (P > 0.05), and that of fresh frozen plasma were (1157.1 ± 238.4) and (1423.5 ± 324.6) ml, respectively (P > 0.05). The total medical costs (excluding HHT and IDA) in experimental and control group were (36074.9 ± 1245.6) and (50564.5 ± 3658.4)CNY, respectively (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONHHT in combination with ATRA and AS2O3 regimen for newly diagnosed APL has a better efficacy, a higher long-term survival rate, and a lower costs, which is one of the reasonable choice.
