Abstract: Objective To summary and analyze the epidemic situation of imported malaria and the prevention and control measures implemented during the new crown pneumonia epidemic in Shenzhen, so as to provide reference for the prevention and control of imported malaria under COVID-19 epidemic. Methods　The data on the prevention and control of malaria epidemic in Shenzhen from 2017 to 2021 were collected for analyzing the epidemic situation of malaria, measures taken and the effect of prevention and control with descriptive epidemiological methods. Results　From 2017 to 2021, a total of 104 confirmed malaria cases were reported in Shenzhen, all of which were imported from abroad. 97.1% were imported from Africa, mainly falciparum malaria, accounting for 80.8%. The age of onset was mainly young adults, the age group 20-49 years accounted for 81.7%, and most of the patients were overseas migrant workers, accounting for 59.6%. Imported malaria cases were reported in each month, the most was 13 cases in July, then 12 cases in September. From 2017 to 2021, 709 mosquito trap lamps were placed, and 3 523 mosquitoes were captured, with an average mosquito density of 2.60 per lamp and night. Anopheles were not found, and the dominant species were Culex quinquefasciatus. During the outbreak of COVID-19, Shenzhen has implemented a series of measures in terms of improving the working mechanism of multi-departmental cooperation and joint defense, strengthening screening and monitoring, personnel training, mosquito vector control, and material security, so as to achieve early detection, early transfer, early isolation and early treatment. Conclusions　A series of measures have been comprehensively implemented to prevent and control imported malaria in Shenzhen while preventing and controlling imported new coronary pneumonia, and achieved positive results. It has realized the timely identification of cases and effective treatment, and prevented the occurrence of severe and fatal malaria cases, as well as halting the spread and spread of malaria outbreaks.

The effect of bunolol on ?-adrenergic receptor of various tissues of animals were reported. The results showed that cumulative dose-response curves of isoprenaline were shifted paratlely to the right by bunolol ( 10-8, 10-7, 10-6mol/L ) on isolated rabbit atrium and guinea pig trachea preparation utilizing isoprenaline as a beta-receptor agonist. In the isolated rabbit right atrium preparation,the pA2 value of bunolol antagonizing the chronotropic action of isoprenaline was 9.3. In the isolated guinea-pig trachea preparation,the pA2 value of bunolol antagonizing the isoprenaline-induced relaxation was 9.1. By contrast, the 〔pA2 ( ?1 )- pA2 ( ?2 ) 〕 value of bunolol was 0.2, suggesting its ?-blocking action in the atrium being nearly 0,6 times more than that in the trachea. Also, comparison with pfopranolol, the blocking effect of bunolol on cardiac ?1 receptor and on trachea ?2 receptor were 4 times and 1.6 times more than that of propranolol respectively.Bunolol ( 1 mg/kg ) could, block completely the vasodilating response of epinephrine ( 10?gAg ) . At the same dosage, bunolol had no effect on blood pressure and heart rate of prior reserpini-sation rats.

Objective To investigate the case of left-semicolon cancer with intestinal obstruction for the methods of one-stage resection and anastomosis.Methods The clinical data of ten patients with left-semicolon can- cer with intestinal obstruction treated by transanus ilues tube,were restrospectively analyzed from October 2004 to December 2006.Results No postoperative anastormotic leakage was found and the patients were clinically cured. Conclusion The technical problem that left-semicolon cancer with obstruction for one-stage resection and anastomo- sis was resolved by the application of transanus ilues tube.

Objective To evaluate the value of captopril challenge test (CCT) in the diagnosis of primary aldosteronism (PA).Methods A total of 674 patients [(45.0±13.7) years, men 341, women 333] admitted to Peking Union Medical College Hospital from 2000 to 2015 were analyzed.Among them, 222 subjects were with essential hypertension (EH), 28 were with pheochromocytoma (PHEO), 246 were with idiopathic hyperaldosteronism (IHA) and 178 were with aldosterone producing adenoma (APA).All patients received CCT.24 h urine sodium was measured in partial patients.Plasma renin activity (PRA), aldosterone (ALD) were detected.Results Compared with EH [PRA: before 0.5(0.2,0.9) μg·L-1·h-1, after 0.8(0.4,1.5) μg·L-1·h-1;ALD: before (393±122) pmol/L, after (360±97) pmol/L] and PHEO [PRA: before 0.3(0.1,0.9) μg·L-1·h-1, after 0.4(0.1,1.6) μg·L-1·h-1;ALD: before (396±108) pmol/L, after (374±114) pmol/L], lower levels of PRA and higher levels of ALD before and after CCT were observed in PA patients [PRA: before 0.1 (0.1,0.2) μg·L-1·h-1, after 0.1 (0.1,0.2) μg·L-1·h-1;ALD: before (468±216) pmol/L;after (457±199) pmol/L].After CCT, the suppression rate of ALD [2.8% (-8.8%,15.4%) vs 6.6% (-4.3%, 17.6%)] and increasing rate of PRA [0(0,50%) vs 50%(0, 200%)] in PA patients were lower than those in EH patients.The ALD/PRA ratio (ARR) were higher in PA than that in EH or PHEO patients.In the EH subjects, ALD levels of seated posture were higher than those of recumbent posture both before and after receiving captopril, but with no changes in ARR after CCT.No significant differences in ALD and ARR (before and after receiving captopril) were observed between seated and recumbent position in the PA group.The ARR after CCT tended to decrease in EH subjects with elevated urine-sodium compared with those with normal urine-sodium.No changes could be viewed in ALD and PRA levels between normal urine-sodium and elevated urine-sodium groups among APA, IHA and EH patients either before or after CCT.Among patients with APA, the ALD levels before CCT and the ARR after CCT were lower in the patients with AngiotensionⅡ(AngⅡ) reactive than those without.A ROC curve analysis suggested that the optimal cutoff value was 46.2 (ALD unit:ng/dl;PRA unit:μg·L-1·h-1) for ARR after challenge in diagnosing PA, with the sensitivity of 88.7% and specificity of 84.8%.Conclusions ARR after 25 mg captopril had high sensitivity and specificity in diagnosis of PA with the cutoff of 46.2.Seated CCT could replace recumbent CCT as a more confirmatory test.The PRA increasing rate should be taken into consideration when diagnosis of PA.

ObjectiveTo observe the effects of different angles between tibial tunnel and tibial platform on “killer turn” in posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstruction,and primarily discuss a safe and reasonable tunnel technology. Methods Eighteen fresh tendon grafts were used to reconstruct the PCL on the tibial side of fresh cadavers.The tibial tunnels of all specimens were built via anteromedial approach.Based on the different angles between tibial tunnel and tibial platform,all specimens were divided into Group A (30°),Group B (40°) and Group C (50°),with six specimens in each group.Area of tibial tunnel exit,pressure of tibia tunnel exit and circulation characteristics of tendons under the cyclic load before and after biomechanical test were recorded.ResultsThe area of tibial tunnel exit had statistical difference among three groups after the test ( F =8.80,P ＜ 0.05 ).The pressure of tibial tunnel exit had statistical difference among three groups (F =3.91,P ＜ 0.05 ).The cyclic frequency and fatigue strength of the transplanted tendons had statistical difference among three groups under the same cyclic load ( 256 N ) and same frequency ( 126 Hz ) ( F =4.25,P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusions The angle between tibial tunnel and tibial platform has negative correlation with the area and pressure of tibial tunnel exit,and has positive correlation with the cyclic frequency and fatigue strength of the transplanted tendons under cyclic load.The ideal anatomy position of the tibial tunnel is the anteromedial tunnel with the angle of 40° between the tibial tunnel and the tibial platform.

ObjectiveTo detect mRNA and protein expression of steroidogenic factor-1 ( SF-1 ) and DAX-1 in human adrenocortical tumors and normal adrenal cortex,and to investigate the effect of SF-1 and DAX-1 on the steroidogenesis and development of adrenocortical tumors.Methods Total RNA and protein was extracted from angiotensin Ⅱ unresponsive aldoterone-producing adenomas ( A Ⅱ -U-APA,n =12 ),angiotensin Ⅱ responsive aldoterone-producing adenomas ( AⅡ -R-APA,n =5 ),cortisol-producing adenomas ( CPA,n =10 ),adrenal nonfunctional adenomas ( NFA,n =10 ),aldosterone-producing carcinoma ( APC,n =2 ) and normal adrenal cortex ( NAC,n =8).To analyze gene expression of SF-1,DAX-1,ACTH receptor(ACTHR),and β-actin by real-time quantitative PCR in different tissues.The protein expression of SF-1,DAX-1,and β-actin in the same tissues by Western blot.To study the relationship of ACTHR,SF-1,and DAX-1 with clinical data in adrenocortical tumors.ResultsThe expression of SF-1,DAX-1 mRNA and protein was different in NAC,AⅡ -U-APA,A Ⅱ -R- APA,APC,CPA,and NFA tissues [ relative expression of SF-1 mRNA:24.58±2.45,23.89±3.17,21.59±3.00,(38.75,44.16),14.17±2.80,and 36.38±3.50; DAX-1 mRNA:0.57±0.06,0.37±0.05,0.43±0.05,( 1.52,1.21 ),0.39 ±0.04,and 0.83 ±0.08 ; SF-1 protein:0.76 ±0.11,0.76 ±0.10,0.73 ±0.07,(1.24,1.40),0.55±0.04,and0.98±0.10; DAX-1 protein:0.65±0.14,0.39±0.13,0.43±0.14,(1.18,1.02),0.56±0.04,and 1.03±0.13 ; all P＜0.05 or P＜0.01 ].There was negative correlation by higher SF-1/DAX-1 ratio and tumor size in AⅡ -U-APA tissues.The mRNA and protein expression of SF-1 was lower in CPA and there was the positive correlation with tumor size.Conclusion SF-1 and DAX-1 might play a key role in the development of the adrenocortical tumorigenesis and steroidogenic tissues.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the influence of drug properties on the encapsulation effiency (EE) and drug release of transfersomes for a proper transfersome preparation.

METHODTo prepare the transfersomes of colchicines (CLC), vincristine sulfate (VCR) and mitoxantrone hydrochloride (DHAD) with the same materials and methods, and then measure their EE. To find out the relationship between drug properties like solubility, molecular weight and charges, and EE. To performe the drug release experiments of various types of transfersomes in vitro, and compare their differences.

RESULTVCR and DHAD are lipophilic or hydrophilic, owing positive charges and large molecular weight, as a result, their EE are high, while CLC is amphipathic, neutral, and of small molecular weight, its EE is very low. As DHAD can insert into the membrane of transfersome, the drug release of DHAD-T in vitro is much slower than that of VCR-T.

CONCLUSIONTo prepare transfersomes with high EE, drugs that are lipophilic or hydrophilic, high molecular weight and opposite charges to the membrane should be chosen. Interaction between drugs and membrane will influnce the rate of drug release.

Objective To analyze the clinical features of patients with subclinical pheochromocytoma(PHEO).Methods Review of clinical features of 22 patients with subclinical PHEO treated in PUMC hospital from 1997 to 2007.Results All patients were asymptomatic.24hr-urinary catecholamine excretion was detected normal in 10 of 22 cases,while increased in the others.Sixteen patients were prepared with ?-receptor blocker before operation.During the operation,BPmax(maximal blood pressure) before tumor resection,BPmin(minimal blood pressure) after resection and ?BP(BPmax-BPmin) were(163?34)/(86?20)mmHg,(105?12)/(61?10)mmHg and(58?37)/(25?21)mmHg,Respectively,in the prepared group.They were(169?36)/(104?20)mmHg,(97?18)/(56?13)mmHg and(71?48)/(48?29)mmHg in the other 6 cases without ?-blocker preparation.DBPmax and ?DBP in the prepared group were significantly lower than the unprepared group.Conclusion Most patients with subclinical PHEO have increased catecholamine secretion.Blood pressure is fluctuant greatly during operation in some patients.Patients should be treated with ?-receptor blocker preoperatively in order to decreasethe operation risk.

OBJECTIVETo observe application value of multispectral animal living imaging technology in rats model of osteoarthritis.

METHODSFifteen male SD rats weighed (180 +/- 20) g (3 months old) were received intra-articular injection of iodoacetic acid for establishing osteoarthritis. Articular cavity of left knee of rats were injected into 50 microl iodoacetic acid. The same volume of sterile saline was injected into right knee articular cavity as control. X-ray living imaging and bone mineral density were observed at 2 and 4 weeks after establishment of model. After 4 weeks,rats were sacrificed and their bilateral joints were collected and determined histologically based on Collins classification and Kellgren-Lawrence classification.

RESULTSOsteoarthritis model was successfully established, compared with control group, model group showed typical manifestation of osteoarthritis, including irregular cartilage surface,osteophyte formation,joint deformity and cartilage defect,and combined with significant decrease of bone density (P < 0.01), while the decrease was not obvious in proximal tibia (P < 0.05). After 2 weeks, knee joints in model group was classified as Collins grade 1 and Kellgren-Lawrence grade 2,then classified as Collins grade 4 and Kellgren-Lawrence grade 3 after 4 weeks,control group showed smooth articular surface,normal joint space and intact cartilage surface, knee joints was classified as Collins and Kellgren-Lawrence grade 0, and bone density of distal femur and proximal tibia were normal.

CONCLUSIONMultispectral animal living imaging technology could be used in dynamic observation of living imaging and detection of bone density in the animal model of osteoarthritis, and it is significant for evaluation of osteoarthritis model, and its realted tesearch.
