Objective To master the prevalence of H unan Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV),hepatitis C virus (HCV)and syphilis (RPR)infection and influencing faictors in Liucheng County,Guangxi Province,provided scientific basis for reducing the infection rate among drug users.Methods Analysis of 2011-2015 surveillance data of AIDS sentinel population.Results Male infection is more than female.The ratio of male to female is 1:0.072;The number of male infected with 2011-2015 in each year is 10 times that of female.The affect people between 20 to49 years old was higher than that of others,accounted for 93.66 ％ of the total number of infections.The ntmber of HIV and the number of HCV were downgrade year by year.The number of RPR was at the same level each year.HIV infection between 20 to 29 years old was lower than that of between 30 to 39 and 40 to 49 years old in HIV-infected people.HIV infection between 30 to 39 years old was lower than that of between 4(to 49 years old.The difference was statistically significant(P＜0.01).HCV infection between 20 to 29 years old was lower than that of between 30 to 39 and 40 to 49 and 50 to 59 years old in HCV-infected people.The difference was statistically significant(P＜0.01).RPR infection between 20 to 29 years olt was lower than that of between 30 to 39 and 40 to 49 years old in RPR-infected people.The difference was statistically significant(P＜0.01).Conclusion To strengthen the detection of drug users and behavior intervention,reduce the harm of AIDS,protect the health and safety of the people,is an important way to curb the prevalence of AIDS.

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) contains a big array of chemical constituents. These constituents un-dergo various metabolic reactions to produce complex in v iv o metabolites. Identification and distribution of these metabolites are important to reveal the effective constituents from a complex formulation. Recently, developments had been made to elucidate the complex metabolic process. In this review, we summarized the methods and strategies developed for TCM metabolism. Application of these metabolic results has also been discussed.

Objective To investigate the infectious complications after nonmyeloablative allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (NASCT). Methods Ten patients with leukemia received NASCT from HLA-identical or 1-3 antigen mismatched sibling donors with conditioning regimens of Flu/Cy+BU+ALG. Five patients were acute leukemia (AL) and all of them is in complete remission (CR1). Cyclosporine in combination with methotrexate was administered for GVHD prophylaxis. Results WBC recovered to more than 0.5 ?10 9/L during postoperative 10 day to 38 day and platelet recovered to more than 20?10 9/L during postoperative 8 day to 16 day. Bacterial infections occurred in 3 patients (30 %) and cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections in 2 patients (20 %). Varicella zoster virus (VZV) infections occurred in one patient (10 %). No fungal infections were documented. No patients died as a result of infection . Conclusion NASCT is a safe and effective therapeutic method for leukemia. It reduces acute GVHD,regimen-related toxicity and early neutropenia associated with traditional allo-HSCT.

Objective: To study the influence of screening dementia with mini-mental state examination (MMSE) combining with delay memory test . Methods: MMSE and delay memory test are used in screening 301 residents. The diagnosis of dementia is according to the DSM-Ⅲ-R criterion. The validity and reliability were studied when the MMSE and delay memory test were used to screen dementia alone or combined. Results: When MMSE was used to screen dementia alone, the specificity, sensitivity, false positive proportion and false negative proportion were 85.40%, 52.43%, 47.56% and 14.60% respectively. When delay memory test was used to screen dementia alone, the specificity, sensitivity, false positive proportion and false negative proportion were 74.45%, 92.07%, 7.93% and 25.55% respectively. If parallel connection of MMSE and delay memory test were used to screen dementia, the specificity, sensitivity, false positive proportion and false negative proportion were 95.62%, 49.39%, 50.61% and 4.38% respectively. If MMSE was in series with delay memory test, the specificity, sensitivity, false positive proportion and false negative proportion of screening dementia were 64.23%, 95.73%, 4.27% and 35.77% respectively. Conclusion: The parallel connection of MMSE and delay memory test can elevate sensitivity of screening dementia and decrease false negative proportion, so it is important in epidemiologic investigation. MMSE in series with delay memory test will raise specificity of screening dementia and decrease false positive proportion, so it is useful for diagnosing early dementia.

Objective To report immune-reconstruction in two patients with acute radiation sickness due to 60Co radiation accident after stem cell transplantation.Methods Patient “A” and “B” were diagnosed as intestinal form of acute radiation sickness(ARS)and extremely severe degree bone marrow form of ARS,respectively.Peripheral blood stem cell transplantation was successfully performed in these two patients.During their whole disease course,absolute lymphcyte count,neutrophil leukocyte count,T-lymphocyte subsets,natural killer(NK),and immunoglobulin were sequentially determined.Results Immunoglobulin was decreased after irradiation without any recovery tendency after the transplantation.After irradiation,absolute lymphcyte count decreased rapidly,but recovered partially after the transplantation(maintained at 0.5?109/L).Neutrophilic leukocyte count rose rapidly to normal after the transplantation.NK was lowered obviously after irradiation,and it rapidly recovered to normal level after the transplantation,and maintained at a level higher than normal.After irradiation,the proportion of CD4/CD8 showed a transient rise,followed by an abrupt lowering.After the transplantation,it showed a tendency of elevation,but it did not recover to normal.Conclusions The tendency of lowering of immunoglobulin,lymphocyte count,NK cell count,and CD4/CD8 ratio indicate that there is a rapid deterioration of both cellular and humoral immunity after irradiation.Following the homogeneic peripheral blood transplantation,neutrophil count and NK cell count showed a rapid recovery,lymphocyte count and CD4/CD8 ratio also showed a tendency of slow elevation,but there is no sign of recovery of immunoglobulin.The results indicate that there is a faster recovery of cellular immunity.
