Objective : To investigate the factors of hyperglycemia among HIV/AIDS patients receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART) in Ningbo City. Methods : The demographic characteristics, ART and fasting blood glucose were collected from HIV/AIDS patients receiving ART in Ningbo City from 2005 to 2021 through the Ningbo Municipal ART Database. The fasting blood glucose levels were analyzed among HIV/AIDS patients receiving ART, and the factors affecting hyperglycemia were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results : A total of 2 607 HIV/AIDS patients were enrolled, including 2 162 men (82.93%), and the participants had a mean age of (45.16±13.93) years, and had mean ART duration of 5.00 years (interquartile range, 5.00 years). The prevalence of hyperglycemia, impaired fasting glucose and diabetes was 22.59%, 13.62% and 8.98%, respectively. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that gender (male, OR=1.482, 95%CI: 1.120-1.961), age (30 years-, OR=2.062, 95%CI: 1.356-3.137; 45 years-, OR=3.697, 95%CI: 2.435-5.611; 60 years and older, OR=7.295, 95%CI: 4.722-11.268), WHO clinical staging of HIV diseases (stage Ⅱ, OR=1.415, 95%CI: 1.097-1.824; stage Ⅲ, OR=1.571, 95%CI: 1.139-2.168; stage Ⅳ, OR=1.488, 95%CI: 1.040-2.128, duration of HIV infections (7 to <10 years, OR=1.336, 95%CI: 1.004-1.777), treatment regimen (second-line regimen, OR=0.611, 95%CI: 0.472-0.792), and blood lipids (high TG, OR=1.665, 95%CI: 1.307-2.123; high TC, OR=1.415, 95%CI: 1.006-1.991; dyslipidemia, OR=2.597, 95%CI: 1.971-3.422) significantly correlated with hyperglycemia. Conclusions The overall prevalence of hyperglycemia was 22.59% among HIV/AIDS patients with ART in Ningbo City, and the prevalence of hyperglycemia correlated with gender, age, clinical staging of HIV infections, duration of HIV infections, treatment regimens and blood lipids among HIV/AIDS patients.

Objective To investigate the dynamic expressions of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) in mice with liver fibrosis and the effect of bone morphogenetic protein-7 (BMP-7) intervention on the expression of EGFR,and to explore a new therapy target for fibrosis.Methods A total of 30 healthy male ICR mice were randomly divided into three groups:6 mice in control group,18 mice in hepatic fibrosis group and 6 mice in BMP-7 intervention group.The model of mice with liver fibrosis was established by subcutaneous injection of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) for 12 weeks.After administration of CCl4 for 8 weeks,human recombinant BMP-7 was given into mice in intervention group by intraperitoneal injection for 4 weeks.Hematoxylin-Eosin and Masson staining of liver tissues were employed to observe the pathological changes,and the semi-quantitative analysis of liver fibrosis was performed.Blood withdrawn from inferior vena cava was detected for levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT),aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and albumin (Alb).The expressions of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1)mRNA and TGF-β1,EGFR,phosphorylation EGFR (pEGFR) protein in each group were detected using quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction and Western blot.Measurement date was compared using analysis of variance and Pearson correlation analysis.Results The model of mice with liver fibrosis was successfully established.In model group,the serum levels of ALT and AST increased,while the level of Alb decreased gradually.All these biochemical index improved after intervention of BMP-7 (ALT:[153.9±18.1] U/L vs [191.3±24.5] U/L;AST:[177.8±19.2] U/L vs [206.6±25.0] U/L;Alb:[25.4±0.9] g/L vs [22.2±1.2] g/L; all P＜0.05).With the progress of fibrosis,TGF-β1,EGFR and pEGFR protein expressions increased gradually in model group and reached a peak at week 12,which was significantly different compared to the control group (all P＜0.05).In BMP-7 intervention group,the expressions of the three proteins decreased significantly compared to model group (TGF-β1:0.256 ± 0.006 vs 0.287±0.014,EGFR:1.061±0.017 vs 1.094±0.014,pEGFR:0.855±0.053 vs 1.007±0.063;all P＜0.05).Additionally,linear correlation analysis showed that expressions of both EGFR and pEGFR proteins were positively correlated with TGF-β1 protein (rs =0.895 and 0.859,respectively; both P＜0.05).Conclusions BMP-7 can suppress the pathogenesis of mouse liver fibrosis.The mechanism may rely on the regulation of EGFR and TGF-β1 expressions.

Objective: To compare the molecular weight of sodium hyaluronate in the injection determined by three methods. Methods:Viscometry was used to determine the molecular weight of sodium hyaluronate. The molecular weight and its distribution ( Mw/Mn) was measured by size exclusion chromatography ( SEC) and the combination of multi-angle laser light scattering instrument and size exclusion chromatography( MALLS-SEC) . Results:The results of MALLS-SEC were close to those of viscometry, and Mw/Mn was obtained simultaneously. The average value of molecular weight of three batches of samples was 991962, 1007438 and 990232 with RSD of 6. 5%, 4. 6% and 2. 2%, respectively(n=4). The average value of Mw/Mn was 1. 6, 1. 6 and 1. 6 with RSD of 7. 2%, 3. 2% and 3. 2%, respectively(n=4). Conclusion:MALLS-SEC shows better accuracy and precision, and can be used in the quali-ty control of sodium hyaluronate samples.

Objective: To investigate the changes of C-reactive protein(CRP), fibrinogen(FIB) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR) in patients with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS), and their relationship with sleep respiratory parameters. Methods: From June 2015 to August 2018, 70 OSAHS patients[observation group, apnea hypopnea index(AHI)≥5/h]and 20 persons in the snoring control group(control group, AHI<5/h) who received the monitor of polysomnography in the Pingxiang People′s Hospital were enrolled.The levels of CRP, FIB and ESR were measured and compared between the two groups.The correlations were analyzed between the levels of inflammatory markers and sleep breathing parameters. Results: The two groups had no statistically significant differences in age, gender and BMI(all P>0.05). The CRP, FIB and ESR of the observation group were (4.5±3.0)mg/L, (3.3±0.9)g/L, (11.4±5.4)mm/h, respectively, which were significantly higher than those of the control group[(2.0±1.5)mg/L, (2.9±0.5)g/L, (7.6±2.6)mm/h](t=5.12, 2.68, 4.36, all P<0.05). The level of CRP was positively correlated with AHI, oxygen desaturation index(ODI)(r=0.285, P<0.05 and r=0.282, P<0.05), and negatively correlated with the lowest SaO₂ and the average SaO₂(r=-0.257, P<0.05 and r=-0.259, P<0.05). The level of FIB was positively correlated with AHI, ODI(r=0.430, P<0.01 and r=0.311, P<0.01), and negatively correlated with the lowest SaO₂(r=-0.287, P<0.01). There were no correlations between ESR and sleep breathing parameters. Conclusion The levels of CRP, FIB and ESR are increased in OSAHS patients, and the levels of CRP and FIB are proportional to the severity of OSAHS, suggesting that OSAHS patients has systemic inflammatory response.

Objective:To investigate the immune reconstitution and its influencing factors in HIV/AIDS patients with antiretroviral therapy in Ningbo.Methods:The data were collected from HIV/AIDS patients of HIV/AIDS Comprehensive Response Information System in Ningbo during 2010-2020. The inclusion criteria of study subjects were HIV/AIDS patients aged 15 or above at initiation of antiretroviral therapy with duration of more than one year follow-up and baseline CD4 +T lymphocyte (CD4) counts completed. A retrospective cohort study was conducted to describe the epidemiological characteristics of the subjects, and univariate and multivariate Cox proportional risk regression models were used to analyze the influencing factors of immune reconstitution in HIV/AIDS patients. Results:A total of 3 851 HIV/AIDS patients were enrolled, in whom 3 185 were males (82.71%,3 185/3 851), 3 769 were in Han ethnic group (97.87%,3 769/3 851), and 1 333 had education level of junior high school (34.62%). Of the subjects, the age at initiation of antiretroviral therapy was (39.47±13.47) years. The median ( Q1, Q3) of follow-up time was 47 (25,77) months. The immune reconstitution after antiretroviral therapy accounted for 66.22% (2 550/3 851) in HIV/AIDS patients. Multivariate Cox proportional risk regression model results showed that, compared with HIV/AIDS patients receiving initial antiretroviral therapy at age ≥45 years, having baseline BMI <23.0 kg/m 2 and baseline CD4 counts <200 cells/μl, receiving initial antiretroviral therapy regimen of zidovudine+lamivudine+nevirapine (AZT+3TC+NVP), the immune reconstitution was more likely to occur in HIV/AIDS cases receiving initial antiretroviral therapy at age <30 years,having baseline BMI ≥23.0 kg/m 2 and baseline CD4 counts ≥200 cells/μl, receiving initial antiretroviral therapy regimen of AZT+3TC+efavirenz (EFV). Conclusions:Age at initial antiretroviral therapy, baseline BMI, baseline CD4 counts and initial regimens were the main factors affecting immune reconstitution. Therefore, it is necessary to start antiretroviral therapy as early as possible, conduct regular follow up and monitor CD4 levels, and pay attention to HIV/AIDS patients with older age and lower baseline BMI.

Objective:To illustrate the effectiveness of Micro-Teachermate platform combined with problem-based learning (PBL) in gynecology and obstetrics teaching.Methods:Students from different classes were randomly divided into experimental group and control group, and the general data of the two groups were compared. The two groups respectively adopted Micro-Teachermate platform combined with PBL and traditional lecture teaching methods. The class attendance rate and the scores of relevant chapters in the final examination were analyzed through statistical methods for assessing the enthusiasm of students and teaching quality in class in terms of the same content and the same class hours. A questionnaire survey was conducted to know students' evaluation of this teaching mode, evaluating its teaching effect and satisfaction comprehensively. SPSS 17.0 was used for t test and chi-square test. Results:There was no difference in general information between the two groups. The class attendance rate of the experimental group (274/279) was significantly higher than that of the control group (61/90), while the scores of the relevant chapters in the final exam were also significantly higher ( P<0.01). Questionnaire survey results among 93 students in the experimental group were taken back 93 valid questionnaires (the effective rate, 100%), showing that most of the students were very satisfied with this teaching mode (90/93) and hoped to apply it to more subjects teaching (89/93). Conclusion:The application of Micro-Teachermate platform combined with PBL in gynecology and obstetrics class teaching contributes to improve students' participating enthusiasm and can effectively improve the quality and efficiency of teaching. Most students highly recognize the teaching method, which is worth applying and popularizing.
