Nowadays people feared to be infected with HIV extremely,and despised the persons who had bad behaviors susceptible to HIV,for the severe harm to the health by AIDS and secret route of transmission of HIV.So it resulted in some special problems of ethics for discriminations by normal and hostilities by HIV infectious people. Therefore it was key to adopt strategy of tolerance, and to treat the HIV infectious people justly, respectfully that was effective to prevent and treat AIDS. Under the principle of vantage,AIDS patients,HIV infectious people,high-risk groups, general people and medical workers could cooperated with each other,and to preclude the ethics differences with tolerance.By evoling the consciousness of respecting privilege of health,exciting social feeling of moralities and responsibility of the public,we cna raise the effect of preventing and treating of AIDS,and keep the prevalence of AIDS within limits.

OBJECTIVETo observe the efficacy of Xingnaojing Injection (XI) in treatment of sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE).

METHODSTotally 65 SAE patients were retrospectively analyzed at EICU from September 2010 to September 2013. They were assigned to the control group (32 cases) and the treatment group (33 cases) according to whether they received XI. Patients in the control group received anti-infection and symptomatic support, while those in the treatment group were intravenously injected with XI at 20 mL per day for additional 7-10 days. The fever clearance time, Glasgow coma scale (GCS), C-reactive protein (CRP), neuron-specific enolase (NSE), and improvement of electroen-cephalogram (EEG) were observed in the two groups.

RESULTSCompared with the control group, the fever clearance time was shortened, CRP levels decreased, GCS score and efficacy of EEG was alleviated in the treatment group after treatment with statistical difference (P < 0.05). No adverse reaction occurred during medication.

CONCLUSIONX1 was safe and effective in treatment of SAE.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of intravenous tetrandrine (Tet) on the outcome of myocardial ischemia and reperfusion. Tet 4mg- kg-1 iv significantly reduced arrhythmias resulting from a coronary artery ligation and reperfusion. It is suggested that Tet may be a prospective anti-arrhythmic drug in ischemic heart disease.

Fatty acids of Ralstonia solanacearum cultured under different temperatures, times, pH values and cultural media were detected by using gas chromatography (GC) method. Rs-J.1.4-010704-01v, a viru- lent strain of R. solanacearum isolated from ginger was chosen for the experiment. The results showed that the kind of fatty acid of Rs-J.1.4-010704-01v fluctuated from 14 to 33. The contents of its three plentiful fatty acids, C16:1?7c/C15:0 ISO 2OH, C16:0 and C18:1?7c (with retain times of 10.644, 10.950 and 14.177 min, respectively), also varied in a range of 55.66% to 75.69%. The diversification of the bacterium’s fatty acids at various cultural conditions was clustered into four groups by cluster analysis, according to the kinds and percentage contents of the fatty acids detected. The pathogenicities of Rs-J.1.4-010704-01v under 20?C and 25?C were deduced to be mid-virulent, with C16:0 less than C16:1?7c/C15:0 ISO 2OH. The bac- terium showed as a virulent strain under the other cultural conditions including 30?C~40?C, 24 h~96 h, pH 5~9 and four cultural media (LB、NA、TTC and TSB), with C16:0 more than C16:1?7c/C15:0 ISO 2OH.However, the difference between C16:0 and C16:1?7c/C15:0 ISO 2OH raised significantly from 2.35 to 13.23 under 40?C and 48 h~96 h. Meanwhile, the kind of fatty acid increased more than 30 as the cultural time increased. It was concluded that temperature and cultural time had more significant effects on the fatty acid composition of R. solanacearum than pH value and cultural medium.

Objective To investigate whether myocardial dysfunction and perfusion impairment had happened in diabetes mellitus(DM)rats,and to assess the relationship between them by using myocardial contrast echocardiography(MCE)and velocity vector imaging(VVI).Methods MCE and VVI were performed from the short-axis views of the mid-left ventricular level both at rest and after dipyridamole stress in control rats and DM rafs(12 weeks after induction with streptozotocin).MCE-derived myocardial blood flow(MBF)and myocardial flow reserve(MFR)and VVI-derived circumferential strain rate(SRc)and SRc reserve were obtained.Results SRc(absolute value)and MBF in the DM group were significantly lower than those in the control group at rest(P =0.03 for SRc and P =0.005 for MBF).SRc reserve and MFR in the DM group were significantly lower than those in the control group after dipyridamole stress (P =0.000 for SRc reserve and P =0.014 for MFR).There was no significant correlation between SRc and MBF at rest in the DM group(r =0.189,P =0.453).However,significant negative correlation existed between SRc reserve and MFR(r =-0.658,P =0.003).Conclusions Both myocardial systolic function and perfusion are impaired in DM rats.The decrease of MBF might not be the predominant determinant of myocardial systolic dysfunction at rest.However,the impairment of MFR could be an important contributor to the decrease of myocardial contractile reserve.

In order to establish the optimum condition for purifica tion of the nucleoprotein(NP) of rabies virus by immunoaffinity chromatography, the efficient and non-denaturative eluents(Mg-el) was obtained by using ELISA elution model; furthermore, it didn't damage the activity of NP. Two kind of NPs , expressed by recombinant vaccinia virus (rVac-N) and recombinant baculovirus (BRN), were purified by a Sepharose CL 4B column and a 2C12- Sepharose 4B colum n. By Western-blot and SDS-PAGE, high purity and good antigenical intact NPs w ere identified. The purified ribonucleoprotein (RNP) of rabies virus 5aG strain was also obtained. After immunized with NP and RNP, mice developed a strong anti -nucleoprotein response and were protected against a lethal challenge of rabies virus CVS strain. There were not difference been observed among the mice immuni zed with different purified protein. These data indicate that the NPs are antige nical and immunogenical comparable to the authentic rabies RNP and therefore pre sent a potential source of an effective ,safe and economical subunit vaccine.

OBJECTIVETo explore the anesthetic effect of preemptive analgesia of frequency acupoint electrical stimulation on painless-induced abortion as well as its effect on anesthetics dosage.

METHODSNinety cases of early pregnancy who selected painless-induced abortion were randomly divided into two groups, 45 cases in each group. Frequency acupoint electrical stimulation at Ciliao (BL 32) and Shenshu (BL 23), disperse-densewave, 2 Hz/100 Hz in frequency for 15 to 20 min, was applied in the group A, which was followed by intravenous anesthesia of propofol. The intravenous anesthesia of propofol was applied in the group B. The blood pressure (BP), heart rate (HR) and SpO2 before, during and after surgery, anesthetic effect and dosage, waking time and adverse events were observed in the two groups.

RESULTSThe BP and HR during and after the surgery in the group A were not statistically different from those before the surgery (all P > 0.05). The BP was reduced and HR was slowed down during the surgery in the group B, which was significantly different from those before the surgery as well as those in the group A (all P < 0.05). The dosage of propofol was (114. 3-+6. 1) mg in the group A. obviously less than (193.2 +/- 8.9) mg in the group B (P < 0.05). The waking time was (5.6 +/- 1.2) min in the group A, obviously less than (10.1 +/- 3.9) min in the group B (P < 0.05). As for anesthetic effect, the incidence of Grade I in the group A was more than the group B (P < 0.05). The adverse events, including nausea, vomiting and contractions pain in the group A were evidently less than those in the group B (all P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe preemptive analgesia of frequency acupoint electrical stimulation could significantly improve anesthetic effect of painless-induced abortion, reduce dosage of anesthetics, shorten waking time of surgery and guarantee the safety of surgery.

BackgroundDiabetic retinopathy (DR) is the result of the cytokine network disorders,the imbalance of angiogenic factor and vascular inhibitory factor is the start factor.ObjectiveTo analyze the levels of CXC chemotatic factors of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients,evaluate the clinical application value of them in different clinical types of DR using receiver operating characteristic (ROC)analysis and to approach the new way of individualized treatment.Methods This was a prospective research.The gold standard was ophthalmolscope and fundus fluorescein angiography.The levels of CXC chemotatic factors and multiplicaiton factors were measured in 96 cases with type 2 diabetes mellitus (66 cases with retinopathy and 30 cases without retinopathy as control).The assessment tasks were performed for these index and courses of DR with ROC curve.Results The expression of age,course of disease has significant difference in different courses of DR ( F =8.507,P =0.001 ; F =28.143,P =0.000).Compared with the control group,the expression of growth-related oncogene-α ( GROα ) ( t =- 2.172,P =0.035,AUC =0.625 ),whole blood viscosity 200 ( t =- 3.724,P =0.001,AUC =0.904 ) and neutrophilic leukocyte (t=-2.562,P =0.013,AUC =0.577 ) has significant difference in the group of mild NPDR.Compared with the control group,the expression of interferon-γ-inducible protein 10 ( IP-10 ) ( t =-3.591,P =0.001,AUC =0.592 ),platelet derivation growth factor-BB ( PDGF-BB ) ( t =- 3.233,P =0.003,AUC =0.735 ),vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) ( t =- 3.617,P =0.001,AUC =0.776 ),C peptide ( t =- 3.366,P =0.002,AUC =0.962 ),leukocyte ( t=-3.201,P =0.003,AUC =0.852) and neutrophilic leukocyte(t =-4.201,P=0.000,AUC =0.852) has significant difference in the group of moderate and severe NPDR.ConclusionsCXC chemotatic factors may act as reactivator in the pathogenesis of DR,GROα and IP-10 may be useful for clinical monitoring of the severity of DR,and evaluating the imbalance state of chemotatic factors maybe a new approach to clinical monitoring and prognosis of DR.

Objective To investigation the pathological characteristics of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma to provide reference criteria for delineating the target area in radiotherapy.Methods Fifty-two patients from the Fourth Hospital of HeBei Medical University underwent resection whom all had been proved to have esophageal squamous cell carcinoma before operation.Chest CT was scanned and transmitted to the 3- dimensional conformal planning system for radiotherapy by VRX-16 scanner.The lesion of esophageal carcinoma was delineated in the 3-dimensional rebuild CT image and the lesion volume was computed by digital rebuild program.Every surgically resected specimen was made into pathologic giant section.The actual size of the specimen was obtained by calculating the size under the microscope with the shrinkage ratio.Multicentric carcinomatous lesion,severe dysplasia and direct intramural infiltration were observed in the giant section with a microscope and the order of such pathological characteristics were analysed statistically.Results 1.The tumor length by different method of preparation of operated specimens differed obviously.The longest was shown by CT. 2.Multicentric carcinomatous lesion was found in 15(29%)cases out of 52 patients.Proximal to the tumor,the mean distance between the multicentric carcinomatous lesion and the main lesion plus the length of the multicentric carcinomatous lesion was 3.02?1.45cm.Distal to the tumor,it was 2.60?2.44 cm.Severe dysplasia was found in 28 patients.Proximally,the mean distance between the severe dysplasia and the main lesion plus the length of the severe dysplasia was 2.45?1.30 cm.Distal to the tumor,it was 3.24?2.19 cm.Direct intramural infiltration was found in 41 patients,of which the mean length being 2.80?1.52 cm proximally and 2.02?1.51 cm distally. 3.Tumor thrombus was found in 6 patients and lymphoduct infiltration in 36 patients.Direct intramural infiltration was found at higher incidence in specimens complicated with lymphoduct infiltration(86%)and those complicated with tumor thrombus(91%).There were no apparent factors affecting severe dysplasia.The proximal distance to direct intra- mural infiltration was much longer than distally.Conclusions Multicentric carcinomatous lesion,severe dysplasia and direct intramural infiltration may be observed in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.Multicentric carcinomatous lesion and direct intramural infiltration are obviously correlated with lymphoduct infiltration.To cover 95% of the microscopic extension,a margin of 5.0 cm is needed proximal to the base of gross tumor volume,and 7.5 cm distal to it.To cover 90% of the microscopic extension,a margin of 4.5 cm is needed proximally,and 5.0 cm distally.

Objective To investigate mutation spectrums of α- and β-haemoglobin genes in thalassemia patients and carriers in Yunnan province,and to establish procedures on prenatal gene diagnosis.MethodsTotally 10 033 counseling couples and pregnant women,and 22 cases of children with moderate or severe thalassemia were recruited from 5 parts of Yunnan Province,middle,western,eastern,southern and northern areas, during July 2009 to July 2011.Medical records, including results of haemoglobin electrophoresis,blood routine examination,and gene diagnosis of subjects were collected and saved in an database in Excel software by the Key Laboratory for Birth Defects and Genetic Diseases.Using multiple gap-PCR and PCR-reversed dot blotting kits, DNA samples collected from 1077 cases of haematological positive thalassemia patients and carriers were tested to determine common mutations of the α-or β-haemoglobin genes.The codon regions of haemoglobin genes were sequenced by the Sanger sequencing in cases that the mutation tests were negative.Mutation spectrums of α- and β-haemoglobin genes were concluded.Prenatal gene diagnosis was offered to fetuses who had risk of thalassemia major.Results( 1 ) In 1077 cases of haemological screen positive subjects,deletions and mutations of α-haemoglobin gene were tested in 119 subjects among 347 cases suspected as α-thalassemia patients and carriers.Five kinds of deletions and mutations on α-haemoglobin gene were found.In 104 subjects,four kinds of common deletions and mutations onα-haemoglobin gene were determined:--SEA, -α3.7, αCS α,-α4.2.Other 14 subjects were double heterozygotes with haemoglobin H disease and severe α-thalassemia phenotypes.A rare mutation of insertion and deletion in α2 haemoglobin gene intron,α301-24-301-23 indel,was found in one carrier subject.(2)In 1077 cases of haemological screen positive subjects,deletions and mutations of β-haemoglobin gene were tested in 297 subjects among 730 cases suspected as β-thalassemia patients and carriers.Sixteen kinds of β-haemoglobin gene mutations were found,including 7 cases of rare abnormal haemoglobinopathy patients with β-haemoglobin gene mutations.In one case with β + phenotype patient,the Codon 5 (-CT)mutation at β-haemoglobin gene was found (firstly reported in China ). (3) Three fetuses with high riskS of α-thalassemia were accepted for prenatal diagnosis.One case of Hb Bart's hydrops syndrome fetus with the genotype --SEA/--SEA,and one case of mild α-thalassemia fetus with the genotype αCS α/αα were found.Another one fetus was found with normal α-haemoglobin.In 6 fetuses accepted for prenatal diagnosis due to high risks of β-thalassemia,one case of β-thalassemia major with the genotype CD17( A→T)/-28 (A→G) was found,3 fetuses were heterozygote carriers,and 2 fetuses had normal genotypes without mutations found in their parents.Medical terminations for 2 fetuses with severe thalassemia were made according to the choice of pregnant women.Other 7 pregnancies continued to term.Anemia or growth retardation was not found in the 7 infants when following up after given-birth 6 to 12 months.Conclusions The mutation spectrums of α- and β-haemoglobin genes of thalassemia patients and αarriers.in Yunnan province are special,in which β-haemoglobin gene exits more polymorphism in the mutation spectrum.Carrier screening in pregnant women,and offering prenatal gene diagnosis to the high risk pregnancies should be an efficient strategy to prevent thalassemia major.
