Lentiviral vectors can transduce a wide range of different cell types.It can transduce not only dividing cells but also nondividing cells.It can be the immunotherapy tool for cancer therapy.Lentiviral yeators have several advantages,amongst which long-term expression,low toxicity,high capacity and low antivector immunity,they will play an important role and will attract more and more interest as an immunotherapeutic.Here,we discussed the clinical application and safety of the lentiviruses encoding tumor-associated antigen(TAA).

Objective To investigate the prevalence of hypertension and its related factors in Hulunbeier Mongolian region. Method A stratified multistage sampling was used to select residents aged 18 and over in a town of Hulunbeier region. 453 persons served as subjects for this questionnaire survey. Their blood pressure, height, weight, waist circumference were measured and body mass index (BMI) were calculated. Then an analysis of the prevalence of hypertension and its related risk factors were performed. Results The hypertension prevalence rate was 34.5%, the standardized rate was 45.4%, and the prevalence in men (48.9%) was significantly higher than that in women (25.4%) (P50 (OR=11.312, 95%CI 4.309~22.132), BMI (2.255, 1.180~4.311), gender (OR=2.788, 1.461~5.323) and drinking (2.306, 1.287~4.134) were significantly related to hypertension. Conclusion The standardized prevalence of hypertension in Hulunbeier Mongolian region is higher than the average prevalence in China, 2002. Old age, abdominal obesity, overweight or obesity, male and alcohol drinking were the main risk factors for hypertension in this region. The government and the health sector should strengthen the health education of healthy lifestyle and health promotion and the control.

Primovist is a newly developed hepatocytespecific agent that is transported into the hepatocyte through organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATPs) and excre ted into bile through canalicular multiorganic anion trans porters.Primovist uptake is usually reduced in HCC cells that present hypointensity on the hepatobiliary phase,there fore this agent may help differentiate HCC from other neoplasms and improve histological grading.This article will further explore the use of Primovist in liver cirrhosis and small hepatocellular carcinoma.

Objective:To investigate the expression of transcription factor BACH2 on PBMC in patients with coronary artery disease( CAD) and discuss its significance and role.Methods:The circulating levels of BACH2 and TLR4 in PBMC were evaluated by RT-PCR and Western blot separately.Serum levels of signature cytokines of T-helper cells,cytokines and ox-LDL were evaluated by ELISA.The data among groups were analyzed by one-way ANOVA.Correlation between variables were subjected to linear regression analysis.Results:The expression level of BACH2 down-regulated and TLR4 up-regulated significantly in PBMCs of ACS patients had significantly higher concentrations of serum ox-LDL,cytokines of TH1 cells,TH2 cells and TH17 cells and low level of cytokine of Treg cells.Negative correlation exists significantly between BACH2 and TLR4 in patients with CAD and between BACH2 and IFN-γ,IL-4 and IL-17,and between BACH2 and ox-LDL in serum.However, positive correlation exists significantly between BACH2 and TGF-β1.Conclusion:Increased serum concentrations of ox-LDL probably down-regulated the expression of BACH2 in ACS patients by activating TLR4 on PBMC, resulting in promoting production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and suppressing production of anti-inflammatory cytokine and then might cause ACS.

The factors influencing cost accounting fall into such three categories as drivers and incentives,factors affecting authenticity and accuracy,and factors affecting application and selection.DRG payment,as it is getting more popular than before,is pushing forward cost accounting at an unprecedented pace.Thanks to the current payment system reform and the transition of public hospital reimbursement regime,such needs as exact payment,j ust compensation and cost/performance management of such hospitals are challenging the present cost accounting system,calling for the birth of a cost accounting system for these hospitals.To build such a system,micro-and macro-level goals need to be considered simultaneously,while needs of different levels should be designed,integrated and interacted with each other.Only in this way,goals can be reached for such a system.

The connotation and extension of the acupuncture changes along with the development of science and technology. Working out the principle on the connotation and extension of acupuncture at present will contribute to better inherit and development of acupuncture. In this paper, through literature analysis, the study on the process of formation and development of acupuncture, we believe connotation of acupuncture and moxibustion mainly include the basic theory of TCM, meridians theory, diagnosis, techniques, clinics, and literatures of acupuncture and moxibustion;and its extension include basic integrated medicine of acupuncture and moxibustion, physiology, pathology, and theories, techniques and clinics derived from modern science.

Objective To study the iodine deficiency disorders (IDD) situation in Wenzhou City during 1995-2014.Method According to National IDD Surveillance Project,IDD surveillance had been consecutively carried out during the past 20 years,which consisted of goiter rate in 8-10 years old children,iodized salt and urinary iodine levels.Results The goiter rate of 8-10 years old children was decreased from the highest of 31.09% (2 190/7 043) in 1995 to the lowest of 2.28% (77/3 378) in 2014;the highest level of median urinary iodine was 214.78 μg/L,and the lowest level was 74.48 μg/L,and which was increased from 74.48 μg/L in 1995 to 187.00 μg/L in 1996,and then had been maintained at the appropriate level recommended by World Health Organiation (WHO),except that in 1998,2003,2004 and 2006.The qualified rate of iodized salt was increased from 54.95% (1 471/2 677) in 1996 to 95.52% (2 548/2 754) in 1999,but decreased to 62.75% (768/1 224) in 2003,however it was fluctuated from 78.61% (2 503/3 184) to 92.48% (2 989/3 232) from 2004 to 2013,and it was 90.43% in 2014 (2 983/3 300).Conclusions The comprehensive measures for controlling IDD,with universal salt iodization,has been gradually achieved remarkable effect in Wenzhou City,but the non-iodization salt existing in the market is still a problem,and people have misunderstandings about iodization salt.Iodine supplementation had better be conducted according to local conditions and based on scientific policy.
