Objective To evaluate the genotoxicity of europium nitrate to the Vicia faba L root-tip cells. Methods The primary roots of Vicia faba L were cultured for 6 hours in the solution of Eu series(64,32,16,8,4,2,1 ?g/ml) at 25℃.And then the roots were repair-cultured in double distilled water for 24 h. The root tips of Vicia faba L were dissected and fixed,stained and the micronucleus rate,mitotic index and the rate of chromosomal aberrations were determined. Results From 1 ?g/ml to 32 ?g/ml,the rate of micronucleus increased with the increasing of the europium nitrate dosage(D),presented a dosage-effect relationship(r=0.949). From 2 ?g/ml to 64 ?g/ml,mitotic index decreased with the increasing of the europium nitrate dosage,presented a dosage-effect relationship(r=-0.852). From 1 ?g/ml to 64 ?g/ml,chromosome fragments(CF) and frequency of chromosomal aberrations(FCA) increased with the increasing of the europium nitrate dosage with a dosage-effect relationship significantly(rD-CF=0.915,rD-FCA=0.872). Conclusion Europium nitrate has the certain genetic toxicity to the Vicia faba L root-tip cells. The chromosome fragments may be one of the reasons to produce micronucleus.

Objective:To explore the relevant predictive indicators of fever course > 7 days in children with infectious mononucleosis.Methods:The clinical data of 163 children with infectious mononucleosis who received treatment in Xi'an Children's Hospital from January 2018 to October 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the heat duration, the children were divided into the fever course > 7 days group ( n = 55) and the fever course ≤ 7 days group ( n = 108). The clinical manifestations and laboratory indexes on admission were compared between the two groups. A logistic regression model was used to analyze the influential factors of fever course in children. A receiver operating curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of heat course > 7 days for infectious mononucleosis. Results:The majority of children with infectious mononucleosis had a heat course of 7 days (21.5%). There were no significant differences in clinical manifestations between the fever course > 7 days group and the fever course ≤ 7 days group (all P > 0.05). Neutrophil count, the proportion of monocytes, aspartate aminotransferase, and the proportion of suppressor T (Ts) cells in the fever course > 7 days group were (15.97 ± 7.60) × 10 9/L, 7.75 (4.93, 10.75)%, 53.00 (22.00, 91.50) U/L, 70.00 (57.00, 75.00)%, respectively, which were significantly higher than (15.21 ± 5.29) × 10 9/L, 5.40 (3.40, 9.60)%, 40.00 (30.00, 63.75) U/L, 63.50 (55.00,70.75)% in the fever course ≤ 7 days group ( t = -5.10, Z = -2.31, Z = -2.26, Z = -2.12, all P < 0.05). The proportion of helper T (Th) cells and the ratio of Th/Ts cells in the fever course > 7 days group were 13.00 (9.00, 17.00)% and 0.19 (0.12, 0.30)%, respectively, which were significantly lower than 16.00 (12.25, 20.75)%, 0.26 (0.18, 0.37)% in the fever course ≤ 7 days group ( Z = 2.44, 2.48, both P < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the increased proportion of Ts cells ( OR = 0.96, 95% CI 0.922-0.978, P < 0.05) was an influential factor of the prolonged course of fever. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the proportion of Ts cells was 0.637. The cut-off value, sensitivity, and specificity were 67.50%, 61.3%, and 64.3%, respectively. Conclusion:Children with infectious mononucleosis with a longer heat course have more severe immune responses. The proportion of Ts cells > 67.5% can be used as a risk factor for the fever course > 7 days in children with infectious mononucleosis.

Objective: To investigate the effect of gross total resection on the local control and survival of patients with stage IV neuroblastoma (NB) and analyze the extent of surgical resection of primary tumors that affects patient survival. Methods: A total of 96 patients with stage Ⅳ NB who were admitted to the Sun Yat-Sen University Cancer Center between January 2000 and December 2011 were analyzed. The patients were treated with combined-modality therapy, including chemotherapy, surgery, and/or radiotherapy. The patients were divided according to the extent of surgical resection of primary tumor into the following groups: group A, biopsy or tumor removal of less than 50% of the primary lesion; group B, incomplete resection of more than 50% but less than 90% of the lesion; group C, removal of more than 90% of the lesion; and group D, complete resection with or without macroscopic residual tumors. The survival rates of each group were analyzed. Results: The median age of the 96 patients was 4.4 years, ranging from 1.2-18.8 years. The overall 3-year progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of the total patients were 32.8% and 36.7%, respectively. A total of 24 cases were assigned in group A, 10 in group B, 23 in group C, and 39 in group D. Subgroup analysis revealed that the 3-year PFS rate was 17.5% for group A, 20.0% for group B, 45.1% for group C, and 40.5% for group D. The PFS rates were not statistically significant-ly different between groups A and B (P=0.352) and between groups C and D (P = 0.792). However, the OS was higher in groups C and D than that in groups A and B. The 3-year PFS rates were 42.2% and 17.8% for groups C and D (P<0.001), respectively. Conclu-sion: Resection extension of more than 90% of the primary tumor combined with chemotherapy and (or) radiation therapy can improve the survival of patients with stage Ⅳ NB. However, this treatment modality does not affect the treatment outcomes for minimal gross tu-mor residuals.

In this study, we explored the rationality of processing methods and mechanism of Aconiti Lateralis Radix (Fuzi) through comparing the chemical contents of diester alkaloids (DAs) and monoester alkaloids (MAs) in the raw material of Fuzi and its processed products. The results showed that the toxicity potency of MAs is at least lower than 1/64 to 1/180 of the toxicity potency of DAs. The contents of DAs in processed Fuzi decreased to 1/76.5 to 1/38.3 of the value of raw Fuzi. The contents of MAs in processed Fuzi significantly increased by 4.6 to 5.2 fold or basically the same as that of the raw Fuzi. The values of MAs/DAs of processed Fuzi were enhanced by 30 to 390 fold of the raw Fuzi. It was found that the contents of DAs were insignificantly different between "Wu dan fu pian" (steaming or stir-frying without Danba) and "Dan fu pian" (steaming or stir-frying with Danba). The result suggested that the abilities of "eliminating toxicity" of different processing methods were equivalent at all. In contrast, the contents of MAs contained in "Wu dan fu pian" were of 5.3 to 8.7 fold higher than the values in "Dan fu pian". This result suggested the processing method by steaming or stir-frying without Danba might have better effect for "conserving property" than the method processed with Danba stipulated by China Pharmacopoeia. We believe that the new processing method without Danba can be recommended in further application due to it offers a simple procedure and it will not introduce inorganic impurities in the products.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors associated with hemorrhagic complications at the puncture site after femoral artery access cerebrovascular interventions and construct a bleeding risk scale.Methods:Two hundred and fifteen patients who underwent femoral artery puncture interventions in the neurointerventional department ward of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from April to October 2020 were selected for the study, including 60 cases in the complication group and 155 cases in the control group. The patients′ general data, interventional procedure-related data and laboratory tests were analyzed univariately and then incorporated into a binary multi-factor logistic regression analysis to determine independent risk factors, and a bleeding risk scale was constructed according to the regression model.Results:Compared with the control group, there was a statistically significant increase in the incidence of women, diabetes mellitus, use of glucose-lowering drugs, proportion of (anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs) use and irritability in the complication group ( χ2 values were 4.94-15.81, all P<0.05); age, BMI, HbA1c, prothrombin time activity, and sheath size and operative time were higher than those of the control group, and prothrombin time and creatinine values were lower than those of the control group, with statistically significant differences ( t values of -6.25 to 2.80, respectively, all P<0.05). Multifactorial logistic regression analysis showed that gender ( OR=0.09, 95% CI 0.025-0.302), BMI ( OR=1.736, 95% CI 1.462-2.115), HbA1c ( OR=1.775, 95% CI 1.107-2.845), and use of anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs ( OR= 0.082, 95% CI 0.015- 0.448) and time to surgery ( OR=1.031, 95% CI 1.012-1.052) were independent risk factors for bleeding complications. In the risk scale: the total score was -3 to 13, and risk existed for a score ≥5. The sensitivity of this scale was 83.3%, the specificity was 92.3%, and the area under the ROC curve was 0.878 ( P<0.001, 95% CI 0.818 to 0.938). Conclusions:Female, high BMI, high HbA1c, anticoagulant/antiplatelet drug use, and long procedure time can increase the risk of bleeding complications at the femoral artery puncture. The predictive model has good predictive performance and can be extended for use.
