Along with the spread of human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1) infection in the world and the emergence of drug-resistant viral strains, it is urgent to seek the novel potent therapies. Chemokine receptor 5 (CCR5) is one of the main coreceptors involved in the entry of HIV-1 into target cells. Nowadays, a number of CCR5 antagonists have been developed and some of them have progressed to clinical trials or been approved. Research progress has also been made in the CCR5-targeted gene therapy. This review summarizes the recent research progress on the CCR5-targeted drug and gene therapy.

Objective To observe the evaluation value of serum high mobility group protein B1(HMGB-1) and APACHE Ⅱ score in severity degree and prognosis of the patients with acute pancreatitis(AP).Methods Sixty patients with AP were collected,including 20 cases in the mild AP group(MAP),20 cases in moderate AP group(MSAP) and 20 cases in the severe AP group (SAP).The HMGB-1 level in each group was dynamically monitored on 1,3,7 d after admission and its relationship with AP severity and APACHE Ⅱ score was analyzed.According to clinical outcomes,these cases were divided into the survival group(48 cases) and death group(12 cases),and the value of serum HMGB-1 level and APACHE-Ⅱ scores for evaluating the prognosis was analyzed.Results The HMGB-1 values on 1,3,7 d in the MAP group were(2.16±0.35),(4.34±0.96),(1.21±0.33)μg/L respectively,which in the MSAP group were(7.78 ±1.32),(10.45 ± 2.36),(6.92 ± 1.55) μg/L respectively,and which in the SAP group were(14.12±2.64),(27.53±8.19),(11.34± 2.57)μg/L respectively.The HMGB-1 levels in the SAP group were significantly higher than those in the MAP group and MSAP group,the differences were statistically significant (P＜ 0.01,P＜ 0.05);the HMGB-1 level had statistical difference between the MSAP group and MAP group(P＜0.05);the HMGB1l score on 3 d in the SAP group was increased with△3-1 HMGB1 increas(difference value of HMGB1 on 1,3 d),the both showed the positive correlation(r=0.725,P＜0.05).But the APACHE-Ⅱ score in the MSAP and MAP groups had no obvious change with the HMGB-1 level increase,the difference was not statistically significant(r=0.127,0.114,P＞0.05).Serum HMGB1 level and APACHE-lⅡ score in the death group were significantly higher than those in the survival group(P＜0.05).Conclusion The serum HMGB1 level has good correlation with APACHE-Ⅱ score in AP;their combination can serve the sensitive indicator for predicting disease condition severity and prognosis of AP.

OBJECTIVE To establish multiple PCR(M-PCR) assay for simultaneous detection of Treponema pallidum(TP) and herpes simplex virus(HSV),Haemophilus ducreyi(HD).METHODS According to specific gene sequence of the three agents:HSV DNA polymerse gene,TP tpp47 gene,HD 6s rRNA gene;three sets of specific primers were designed and a multiple PCR assay was developed to detect 3 agents in one test.RESULTS The target DNA of 3 agents were specifically amplified by their specific primers,the appropriate size of four DNA fragments was 202bp,252bp,152bp for TP,HSV and HD,respectively.The DNA of other several common microbes of genital tract and human genome could not be amplified by three sets of primers.CONCLUSIONS Primary study indicated that the M-PCR assay can simultaneously,specifically and rapidly detect out HSV,TP and HD.

Objective To study the feasibility and care mode of remote fetal monitoring at primary hospital. Methods A questionnaire survey was administered to 71 hospitals of different levels in Jiangsu province.Question-naire content included human resources status of midwifery,the remote fetal monitoring system and its clinical applica-tion;anonymous questionnaire survey was conducted to 130 maternal women by random cluster sampling;investigation of remote fetal monitoring device type,operation mode,clinical usage and existing problems was done through the doc-ument retrieval of VIP and Wanfang data platform.Results In grade Ⅱhospital,obstetricians sufficient and insuffi-cient were 10 cases (24.39%),31 cases(75.6%),respectively,and in grade Ⅲ hospital were 8 cases (61.53%), 5 cases (38.46%),respectively,there was statistically significant difference between grade Ⅱ and grade Ⅲ hospital (χ2 =4.572,P <0.05);In grade Ⅱ and grade Ⅲ hospital midwives were obviously insufficient,but there was no sta-tistically significant difference between grade Ⅱ and grade Ⅲ hospital(χ2 =0.219,P >0.05).Different cultural lev-el,place of residence,occupation of maternal demand for the development of remote fetal monitoring were urgent and higher degree of acceptance,but the cognition was not comprehensive,college degree or above,technical personnel and urban pregnant women that their need for remote fetal monitoring were the most urgent.There were significant differ-ences(all P <0.01).The use of remote fetal monitoring equipment was mostly at tertiary hospital nationwide.3G net-work way to transfer data had short time and small scope.Conclusion The existing monitoring system and service mode can not meet the requirements of the implementation of remote fetal monitoring,medical personnel professional quality and maternal comprehensive quality are the main influencing factors.The primary hospitals should actively pro-mote the application of remote fetal monitoring,maternal health care services and health education should arouse the attention of the whole society.

Objective To explore initial application of network in remote consultation system in the manage-ment of obstetrics in primary hospital.Methods Data were collected in questionnaire survey,a total of 54 hospitals in Jiangsu province were involved.The situation of remote consultation and perceive of pregnant and puerpera in primary hospital were investigated to establish an independent cyber in remote consultation system.Results The demand for remote consultation at all levels of hospital was huge(79.63%),there was no significant difference (P >0.05).Third class hospital has been widely carried out the remote medical consultation service,about 85.37% of the level II hospi-tals had not yet been carried out,which did not have the conditions accounted for 68.29%,the difference was statisti-cally significant(P <0.01).There was a significant difference between the demand and the approval degree of the pri-mary hospital in the remote consultation(P <0.01),high school or above,technical staff and urban pregnant women needed the most pressing,high degree of recognition.Conclusion The primary hospital medical personnel profession-al quality was the important factor that affected the use of remote consultation.The corresponding point,independent network creation and combined with face to face diagnosis were needed in the performance of remote consultation.Suc-cessful opening of the remote consultation system,improved the quality of the diagnosis and treatment,promoted the academic exchange between regions.It was conducive to the management of the high -risk pregnancy and should be actively promoted and applied.
