Objective: To observe the effect of Tongluo Jiunao oral solution on learning and memory and the expression of AChE in hippocampus of AD rats induced by ?-amyloid1-40.Methods: 140 SD rats were divided into blank control group(normal group),pseudo-operation control group,negtive control group(model group),positive control group and experiment group(48、24、12mg?kg-1?d-1)at random.The model of AD were established by injecting ?-amyloid1-40 into bilateral hippocampus.After 4 weeks,Morris Water Maze was used to determine the ability of learning and memory.Immunohistochemical method and image analysis techniques were used to determine the expression of AChE in Hippocampus.Results: Compared with normal group,in place navigation test,the mean escape latencies of the model group increased obviously,and in spatial probe test,the frequency of passing through the platform of the model group decreased obviously(P

Objective:To explore the efficacy and clinical significance of Eltrombopag combined with immunosuppression therapy(IST) in the treatment of severe aplastic anemia (SAA) in children.Methods:Clinical data of 63 children with initially diagnosed SAA in the Department of Hematology of Xinxiang Central Hospital from May 2017 to June 2019 were retrospectively analyzed.All of them were all donors without siblings and they were classified into observation group (31 cases) and control group (32 cases). Patients in the observation group received IST combined with Eltrombopag treatment, and those in the control group received IST treatment.The Chi- square test was used to compare the overall remission (OR) rate and complete remission (CR) rate at 3 months, 6 months and 12 months, and incidence of infection and significant bleeding between groups.The t-test was used to compare the application of gra-nulocyte colony stimulating factor, the mean red blood cell transfusion, and the mean platelet infusion volume between groups.Kaplan-Meier method was adopted to analyze the 2-year overall survival (OS) rate and failure-free survival (FFS) rate, followed by the Log- rank test. Results:The 3-month and 6-month OR rate of the observation group were 61.29%(19/31 cases) and 80.64% (25/31 cases), respectively, which was significantly higher than that of the control group [37.50%(12/32 cases) and 59.38%(19/32 cases), χ2=45.27, 43.81, respectively, all P<0.05]. The 3-month and 6-month CR rate of the observation group were 32.26%(10/31 cases) and 45.16%(14 /31 cases), respectively, which was significantly higher than that of the control group [15.62%(5/32 cases) and 28.13%(9/32 cases), χ2=47.02, 48.35, respectively, all P<0.05]. The 12-month OR rate and CR rate in the observation group were 83.87%(26/31 cases), and 64.52%(20/31 cases), respectively, which were 81.25%(26/32 cases), and 59.38%(19/32 cases), respectively in the control group, and no significant differences in them were detected between the two groups (all P>0.05). The total amount of granulocyte colony stimulating factors [(13.58±4.28) doses vs.(23.24±6.68) doses, t=2.591], and the mean infusion volume of red blood cells [(5.48±1.67) U vs.(10.58±3.67) U, t=2.040] and platelets (4.15±2.47) bags vs.(9.15±3.87) bags, t=2.744) used in observation group within 6 months of treatment were significantly lower than those of the control group (all P<0.05). The rate of infection (16.13% vs.43.75%, χ2=47.12) and significant bleeding (16.13% vs.37.50%, χ2=44.52) in the observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group (all P<0.05). The 2-year OS rate of the observation group and control group were 93.55% (29/31 cases), and 87.50% (28/32 cases), respectively.No significant difference in the OS rate was found between groups ( P=0.407 3), nor as the 2-year FFS rate(87.10% vs.78.13%, P=0.326 6). Conclusions:IST combined with Eltrombopag can significantly improve the early treatment response rate of SAA children without a sibling identical donor, which can reduce red blood cell and platelet transfusion, and the incidence of infection and bleeding.

Objective:
To explore drug resistance of different viral loads, and investigate the relationship between drug resistance and CD4+T cell counts in patients with HIV antiretroviral therapy (ART) in China from 2003 to 2015.
Methods:
Data were extracted from the Chinese National HIVDR Surveillance database from 2003 to 2015. For this study, the data collected were as follows: having received ART for ≥12 months; 18 years or older; demographic characteristics, information of ART, CD4+T cell counts, viral load (VL) and HIV drug resistance of a total of 8 362 patients were collected. Multi-variables non-conditional logistic regression model was used to study the relationship between viral load, HIV drug resistance and CD4+T cell counts.
Results:
Participants with age of (41.8±10.5) years were enrolled in this study. Among them, 59.9% (5 009 cases) were men. The percentage of CD4+T cell counts <200 cells/μl in the total population was 17.9% (1 496 cases), the highest was in VL ≥1 000 copies/ml with drug resistance, which was 43.0% (397/923) , followed by VL 50-999 copies/ml with drug resistance, which was 31.1% (69/222), and the lowest was in VL 50-999 copies/ml without drug resistance 13.2% (273/2 068). Compared to VL 50-999 copies/ml without drug resistance, VL<50 copies/ml, VL 50-999 with drug resistance, VL≥1 000 copies/ml without drug resistance, and VL ≥1 000 copies/ml with drug resistance, the
