Objective To evaluate the clinical effects of platelet-rich plasma in treatment of DeepⅡburn wounds. Methods Sixty eight cases of inpatients with Deep Ⅱburns were selected, whose age were from 1 to 65 years and their burn areas were between 5%~62%of total body surface area (TBSA). Deep gradeⅡburn of each sample was divided into two parts. Part A was the treatment group and part B was the control group.The burn wounds in the treatment group were treated with platelet-rich plasma and the counterpart in the control group were treated with SD-Ag. Healing time ,recovering rate and the frequency of dressing changes,frequency of changing the most innerlayer gauze and the rate of wound infection were also analyzed. Finally the laboratory abnormalities and adverse effect were monitored regularly. Results The healing time of the treatment group (16.5±3.1 ) d was shorter than that of the control group (19.5±3.8 ) d. The recovering rate of the treatment group was higher than that of the control group on the 14th and 17th day after treatment. There were statistically sig?nificant differences between these two groups (P<0.05). After two weeks’treatment, the internal and external dressing per?meability into wet gauze layers were 20.6 ± 1.7, which were significantly decreased than that in the control group 23.3 ± 5.9. The frequency of dressing changes was(7.2±1.1)times in treatment group versus(9.2±1.4)times in control group and the frequency of changing the inner most layer gauze was( 2.3±0.6)times in the treatment group versus(5.3±1.3)times in con?trol group. There were 5 inflammation reaction cases in the treatment group, but 13 cases in the control group. However, there was no statistic significance between the two group in the outcomes of bacterial culture, the laboratory abnormalities and the adverse effect. Conclusion Platelet-rich plasma can remarkably shorten the healing time,improve healing rate,re?duce frequency of dressing change and promote wound healing for deepⅡburn wound. PRP is a potential safety reagent in treating deepⅡburn wound.

Objective To explore the effect of endotracheal intubation therapy on acute laryngotracheobronchitis and acute laryngitis in children.Methods Twelve of 45 children with acute laryngotracheobronchitis or acute laryngitis were intubated and mechanically ventilated in pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) during Oct. 2000 to Oct. 2006.Ten cases were laryngotracheobronchitis and 2 were acute laryngitis.The endotracheal tube chosen was at least 0.5 to 1.0 size smaller than normally recommended for age.The need of intubation was assessed based on severity of signs of airway obstruction Ⅲ without improvement by the conventional treatment with humidified and combined with oral or intravenous interventions,respiratory failure,or airway obstruction Ⅳ.Results Eleven of 12 children were intubated successfully,except 1 case after resuscitation.All the patients were ventilated after intubation.The mean duration of intubation was 3.4 days (24 hours -9 days).Ten cases were successfully extubated and 2 cases failed of extubation,of which 1 case got tracheostomy.All children were routinely supported by nasal continuous positive airway pressure(NCPAP) after extubation with a mean of 1.5 days (2 hours-4 days).The mean days of hospitalization were 11.2 days (4-22 days).Conclusion Intubation is an alternative for the management of severe acute laryngotracheobronchitis and acute laryngitis in children.In most cases,tracheotomy can be substituted by intubation.

In the 40 years of last centry American scientists put forward a concep of high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) therapeutic technique and had done some technical and clinical studies. Since 90 years the HIFU surgery technique treating tumors anew rised abruptly in the world. China firstly put out a comprehensive HIFU tumor treating sistem and successfully treated many solid tumors such as breast cancer, bone tumor, liver cancer etc.. Now the treating sistem has already exported to England, Italy,Spain, Japan, Colea etc. and treated tens thousands tumor patients. In the field of noninvasive ultrasound treating tumor technique China has continually kept the leading position in the world.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and the mechanism of different dose hepatitis B immunoglohulin(HBIG)on prevention of HBV intrauterine infection and HBV S gene mutation. Methods HBV carrier mothers were randomly divided into three groups.Eighty-one HBsAg carrier pregnant women were divided into HBIG A group.HBIG B group and control group.Each subject in the HBIG A group received 200 U or 400 U(for HBsAg and HBeAg double positive carrier)intra muscularly at 3,2,1 month before delivery.Each subject in the HBIG B group received 200 U intra muscularly at 3,2,1 month before delivery.The subjects in the control group did not receive any treatment.Maternal blood samples were taken before HBIG injection and at delivery.Neonatal blood samples of all newborn infants after birth were taken before immunopropbylaxis.Their sera were ob tained to test HBV markers by enzyme immunoassay(EIA)and HBV DNA by fluorescence quantita- tive polymerase chain reaction(FQ-PCR),then to amplify and sequence HBV S gene region.Results The rate of HBV intrauterine infection in the HBIG group(14.5%)was lower than that in the control group(35.7%)(X~2=4.896,P=0.027).The rate of HBV intrauterine infection of newborns from HBsAg and HBeAg double positive carrier mother in the HBIG A group(37.5%)were lower than control group(100.0%)(X~2=7.273,P=0.007),while the rate was no different in the HBIG B group(71.5%)and the control group(X~2=2.637,P=0.104).Maternal HBsAg titer and HBV DNA level were of no difference among three groups before HBIG injection.Maternal HBsAg titers and HBV DNA levels of the HBIG A group were lower than those of the HBIG B group and the con- trol group at delivery.Among the 26 neonatal serum samples in the HBIG A group,10(38.5%)were positive for anti-HBs,while in the HBIG B group and in the control group,no neonatal serum sam- ples was positive.There was no significant difference of nucleotide and amino acid changes in the S gene between the HBIG group and the control group.Conclusions HBV infection in the uterus may be interrupted by injection HBIG intramuscularly before delivery.More efficacy would be found using variable HBIG dose according to different HBV virema and must be once more again injected just he- fore one week of delivery;anti-HBs transported to the fetus via the placenta and it's may be the im- portant mechanism of HBIG prevention.Asymptomatic HBsAg carrier mother received injections of HBIG before delivery should not influence HBV S gene mutation.Gene mutation of HBV is not the main factor in intrauterine transmission of HBV.

Abstract： Objective　To analyze the epidemic situation and risk factors of schistosomiasis in Hubei Province from 2015 to 2022, and to provide a scientific basis for the goal of all schistosomiasis-endemic counties in the province reaching the elimination standard by 2030. Methods　According to the requirements of the National Schistosomiasis Surveillance Plan (2014 edition) and National Schistosomiasis Surveillance Plan (2020 edition), the snail situation and the risk of wild fecal transmission, along with regional distribution in schistosomiasis endemic areas in Hubei Province from 2015 to 2022 were analyzed and the risk was rated. Results　From 2015 to 2022, a total of 60 203 risk monitoring environments per time was carried out, with 10 223 460 frames of snails inspected, capturing 2 344 094 snails, among which 1 357 479 live snails, and an average density ranging from 0.07-0.29 snails/0.11 m2. In 2015 and 2017, 11 and 3 schistosomiasis-infected snails were detected respectively, corresponding to 3 and 2 positive snail environments. The proportion of wild feces distribution environment in the total monitoring environment showed a downward trend, with cow dung accounting for the highest proportion (69.27%). A total of 19 549 wild feces were collected, of which 78 were positive for schistosomiasis. Since 2018, only one positive cow dung was found in 2019, and none in other years. From 2015 to 2020, the density of live snails and the proportion of wild feces in the monitoring environment in each risk monitoring county (city, district) had significantly reduced, with areas of higher snail density such as Gongan County, Yangxin County with higher density of live snails decreasing to below 1 per 0.11 m2 from 2017. Among the 60 203 risk monitoring environments, 53 were identified as GradeⅠrisk (not detected since 2020), 1 999 as GradeⅡrisk, and 58 030 as GradeⅢrisk. Conclusions　From 2015 to 2022, the overall schistosomiasis epidemic in Hubei Province showed a downward trend. However, the risk of schistosomiasis transmission still exists in some areas. In the future, we should continue to strengthen the epidemic monitoring in key areas, improve the sensitivity and level of monitoring, and prevent the rebound of the epidemic.

In this study, plate transparent circle by Davis method was introduce firstly screening ?-Rhamnosidase high-yield strain. The spore-sprouted Aspergillus niger 8-hour were mutagenized by ethyl methane sulphonate and pre-screened via transparent circle. 11% mutants yield 40% higher of ?-rhamnosidase than the original strain. A high-yield strain, T-226 with the highest ?-rhamnosidase activity of 373.4 U/mL was finally selected from these potential high-yield mutants after rescreened by shake flask fermentation twice. When the T-226 strain was fermented in 5 L bioreactor, the enzyme activity could reach to 631.9 U/mL after 84 h. Thus, the established screening method is highly efficient to isolate ?-rhamnosidase high-yield mutant of A. niger.

Objective To explore the clinical value of virtual touch quantification (VTQ) technique in assessing the hepatic fibrosis. Methods A total of 115 inpatients with chronic liver disease receiving liver biopsy were enrolled in this study, all patients liver tissue was checked by VTQ technique, and the results were compared with those of the control group including 80 healthy subjects. Results VTQ value was significantly different between the two groups (P = 0.0000).The VTQ value among different degree of hepatic fibrosis but between S0 and S1 had statistical significances (P = 0.0212, P = 0.0000).ROC curve displayed that VTQ value of 1.4 m/s could be used to diagnose middle-high-grade liver fibrosis, the sensitivity and specificity were 85.4 % and 64.7%, respectively. Conclusions VTQ can be used as a noninvasive and effective means for assessing the degree of hepatic fibrosis.
