Objective To evaluate retrospectively the image quality and detection of nodules with low-dose chest computed tomography (LDCT)by photon detector and iterative reconstruction (IR).Methods Sixty-six patients with lung nodules underwent routine LDCT with image reconstruction using filtered back projection (FBP).These patients were followed up by LDCT with photon detector 6 months later with image reconstruction using FBP and SAFIRE.Image quality and detection rate of the nodules were compared among groups including routine LDCT,photon decector+FBP and photon Decector+IR groups.Results Noise was decreased and SNR was increased in turn for routine LDCT,photon detector+FBP and photon detector +IR,exhibiting statistical differences (all P<0.001).The CT image quality score among routine LDCT,photon decector+ FBP and photon decector+ IR groups were increased in turn with statistical differences (χ2 =32.65,P<0.001).132 lung solid nodules (SN)were all identified in three groups with average diameter of (5.13±1.49)mm, (5.1 1±1.57)mm and (5.08±1.54)mm,respectively,and the difference was not statistically significant (P >0.05).14 ground glass nodules (GGN )in routine LDCT group and 15 in other two groups were identified with the average diameter of (6.44±1.86)mm, (7.23±1.74)mm and (7.31±1.68)mm,respectively.The ability of routine LDCT to detect the GGNs was lower than that of the others.Conclusion Photon detector and IR are able to decrease image noise,improve image quality,and increase detection rate and measurement accuracy of GGN.

Objective To investigate the correlation between Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection and blood lipid metabolism and atherosclerosis.Methods From October 2015 to October 2020,200 cases of Hp positive subjects were observed as observation group and 200 cases of Hp negative subjects as the control group,all subjects were blood lipid levels of vascular ultrasound and other related checks.Results The levels of total cholesterol (TC) (5.68± 1.46 mmol/L),triglyceride (TG) (1.58 ± 0.76 mmol/L) and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C),and the difference was statistically significant (t=6.12,7.69,5.64,all P<0.05).The detection rate of carotid atherosclerotic plaque in the observation group was 66.00 %,which was significantly higher than that in the control group (49.50%),the difference was statistically significant (x2=29.61,P<0.05),and the observation group.The detection rate of stable plaque was 44.5 %,which was significantly higher than that of the control group 22.5%,the difference was statistically significant (x2 =21.73,P<0.05).Conclusion Hp infection can affect the level of lipid metabolism in patients,which is an important factor in the occurrence and development of atherosclerosis.

Objective To observe whether hepatitis B vaccine enhance the treating effect of cyto-kine induced kill(CIK) cells on hepatitis B virus transgenic(HBV-Tg) mice. Methods The HBV-Tg mice were treated with CIK cells by peritoneal injection and hepatitis B vaccine by hypodermic injection. The HBV DNA level were tested by real-time PCR,T lymphocyte subgroup were detected by flow cytometry and the pathological diversify of hepatic tissue were observed by HE staining. Results The HBV DNA loading in peripheral blood of HBV-Tg mice decreased after CIK cells were treated and CD3~+ , CD4~+ and CD8~+ cells increased which were enhanced after CIK cells combined with hepatitis B vaccine. Conclusion Hepa-titis B vaccine enhanced the treating effect of CIK on HBV-Tg mice which may be implemented by increased the blood level of CD3~+, CD4~+ and CD8~+ cells, especially CD8~+ cells level.

Background The Qingcaosha Reservoir is facing issues of algal blooms and eutrophication, and the resulting increase in the level of chlorination disinfection by-products in the water has been a major concern. Objective To evaluate the impact of "Algae Monitoring and Control Program in Qingcaosha Reservoir" (hereinafter referred to as the program) on the control of trihalomethanes (THMs) in conventional finished water. Methods From 2011 to 2019, water samples were collected from the Lujiazui Water Plant once per season, one sample each time, and the concentrations of four THMs (trichloromethane, dichlorobromomethane, monochlorodibromomethane, and tribromomethane) were measured in the samples. Using 2014 when the program was implemented as a cut-off point, the entire study period was divided into two phases: pre-implementation (2011–2013) and post-implementation(2014–2019). Segmented linear regression with interrupted time series analysis was applied to assess the concentrations and trends of THMs in the finished water before and after the program launch. Results The concentration of total THMs in finished water increased by 1.561 µg·L−1 (P=0.010) for each season of time extension before launching the program. The change in the concentration of total THMs in finished water was not statistically significant after the program launch, but the THMs concentration showed a decreasing trend as the slope was −0.626 (P=0.001). From 2017 until the end of 2019, the average concentration of THMs in finished water of Lujiazui Water Plant dropped to 10 μg·L−1 or less. Conclusions The algae and eutrophication control measures in Qingcaosha Reservoir have achieved good results, controlling THMs in finished water at a low level, and the trend of THMs has changed from a yearly increase pattern before the program to a yearly decrease pattern after the program.
