Purpose To evaluate the value of multi-slice spiral computed tomography (MSCT) scan in the diagnosis of papillary renal cell carcinoma. Materials and Methods A retrospective study was conducted on the findings of plain CT scan and triphasic dynamic contrast enhanced CT scan of 23 patients with papillary renal cell confirmed pathologically, and further contrasted with the findings of 96 patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma at corresponding phases in such aspects as cystic degeneration, enhancement degree and pattern (homogeneous, peripheral or heterogeneous) and tumor spreading pattern (perinephric invasion, lymphadenopathy or venous invasion). Results The degree of enhancement CT value for both diseases showed statistical significance in corticomedullary phase, parenchymal phase and excretory phase (t=9.70, 8.08, 5.92;P<0.01), but papillary renal cell carcinoma was lower than clear cell renal cell carcinoma. In terms of cystic degeneration, papillary renal cell carcinoma was significantly lower than clear cell renal cell carcinoma (21.7%vs 54.2%,χ2=7.54, P<0.01). Papillary renal cell carcinoma mainly showed homogeneous enhancement (60.9%) whereas clear cell renal cell carcinoma mainly presented heterogeneous enhancement (68.8%) with statistical difference (χ2=30.40, P<0.01). The tumor spreading patterns like perinephric invasion, lymphadenopathy and venous invasion had no significant difference (χ2=0.51, 0.11, 0.03;P>0.05). Conclusion Papillary renal cell carcinoma shows homogeneous enhancement, seldom cystic degeneration or necrosis on MSCT scan, which is helpful for the differential diagnosis from clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

This study was aimed to summarize the adverse drug reaction (ADR) caused by the toxicity of Tripterygium Wilfordiiand its preparations, in order to explore possible relationship betweenTripterygium Wilfordiifactors and reported ADR. Relevant articles on toxicity ofTripterygium Wilfordiiand its preparations were systematically searched in 5 databases, including the Pubmed, CNKI,Wanfang Data, VIP Data and Sinomed from the database was established until Feb 25th, 2014. And then, the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were systematically collected, analyzed and summarized. The results showed that there were 260 RCTs with 13301 patients included. The outcome of data analysis showed that ADR rates of digestive system and reproductive system of RCT1 and RCT2 were different. ADR rates (per hundred people) in RCT1 and RCT2 were as follows: digestive system were 14.73 and 12.26, reproductive system were 8.25 and 8.00, liver was 6.50 and 5.66, kidneys were 6.79 and 3.03, blood system were 6.73 and 6.50, cardiovascular system were 2.35 and 0.67, skin and mucous system were 11.42 and 4.78, respectively. Articles on rheumatoid arthritis (RA) of both RCT1 and RCT2 were the highest, which occupied 22.17% in RCT1 and 63.16% in RCT2. The corresponding ADR rates were 34.18 and 27.26. The standard deviation (SD) of 7 disease types, which were RA, IgA nephropathy, nephritis, nephrotic syndrome (NS), diabetic nephropathy, psoriasis, lichen and rashes, as well as uterine fibroids, was 8.69 in RCT1. The SD of RA, IgA nephropathy, psoriasis, lichen and rashes was 7.11 in RCT2. It was concluded that the possible ADR distribution ofTripterygium Wilfordiiand its preparations were the highest in the digestive system, reproductive system and liver. Besides, different diseases (i.e., RA, nephritis, NS, and etc.) had huge differences with their correspondent ADR rates. Therefore, it was suggested that specific measures should be taken to select the appropriateTripterygium Wilfordiipreparation, protect the stomach and liver during the application ofTripterygium Wilfordiiand its preparations. During medication, attentions should be paid to the reaction of patients. Stop the medication when necessary to minimize ADR rates to the lowest.

We wished to understand the genetic characteristics of enteric cytopathic human orphan (ECHO) virus type 6 (ECHO6) circulating in China. First, the partial VP1 coding region of six strains of the ECH-O6 virus isolated from cases of hand, foot and mouth diseases during routine surveillance in Hunan Province (China) from 2009 to 2014 were sequenced. Those sequences were analyzed along with 138 sequences of ECHO viruses covering five provinces of China and countries outside China retrieved from the GenBank database. A phylogenetic tree based on partial VPI was constructed, and it indicated that Chinese strains of the ECHO virus could form two distinct evolutionary branches: branch 1 and branch 2. All isolates of the ECHO virus from Hunan Province belonged to the 2c subranch, which revealed that they may share a common evolutionary origin. ECHO strains in branch 2 may be the predominant strains in China due to their wide geographic distribution and long period of circulation. We used nucleotide differences of >30%o as the basis of cluster division. ECHO, viruses could be divided into four clusters (A-D). Cluster D could be divided further into ten subclusters on the basis of nucleotide differences of 15%-30%. All ECHO6 isolates from Hunan Province belonged to the D7 subcluster. These data showed that the ECHO6 strains that circulated in Hunan Province in 2009-2014 were closely related to each other, and probably shared a common evolutionary origin. In addition, at least four distinct lineages of ECHO viruses have circulated in China.

A sequential clean-up method was developed for the quantification of 10 plant growth regulators in bean sprout by the gas chromatography / mass spectrometry (GC / MS). The analytes were firstly extracted by the acided acetonitrile. Extraction was concentrated and re-dissovled by methanol. Then, it was divided to two aliquots. One of that was analyzed for 2,4-D-butyl ester and 2,4-D-ethyl ester after the purification by QuECHERS cartridge. Another one was treated by MCS solid phase extraction column including diverse eluting steps. After eluting by 5 mL methanol, composition 1 was obtain, concentrated, and methyl esterified by 10% boron trifluoride methanol solution. The treated extract was used for the determination of 4-chlorophenoxy acetic acid, β-naphthyl acetic acid, 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid, indole acetic acid and indole butyric acid. Composition 2 collected by eluting with 5 mL 5% amonium methanol was used for the determination of paclobutrazol, Kinetin, 6-Benzylaminopurine. The clean-up procedures are designed according to different chemistry properties of these plant growth regulators. The results showed that after spiking of 0. 01-0. 1 mg / kg selected plant growth regulators, average recovery ranged from 70. 0% to 93. 2%and relative standard deviation were 5. 2% -12. 3% . Limit of quantification (LOQ S / N≥10) and limit of detection (LOD S / N≥3) were 0. 01-0. 025 mg / kg and 0. 003-0. 008 mg / kg respectively. The developed purification method is easy, fast and accurate, and can be applied to routine test of plant growth regulators in bean sprout.

Objective To fully grasp the professional technical capabilities of provincial level radiological health technical institutions, and so as to provide the basis for giving full play to the role of provincial level radiological health technical institutions, exploring and planning the development direction of radiological health technical institutions in China. Methods From September to December, 2019, National Institute for Radiological Protection, China CDC issued questionnaires to 37 provincial level radiological health technical institutions. The basic situation of department setting, number and composition of professional and technical personnel, equipment and radiological health work of the institutions that undertake radiological health related responsibilities were investigated, summarized and analyzed. Results Thirty-seven provincial level institutions participated in this survey, including 24 centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 11 institutions for Occupational Disease Control and Prevention, and 2 other institutions related to radiological health.Most of the institutions were qualified for radiological health related testing or evaluation; Thirty institutions had set up independent radiological health departments. There were 627 people engaged in radiological health professional and technical work, 83.4% of whom were officially on the staffs, and 16.6% are contract staffs.The distribution of gender, age, qualifications, professional title and working years in the radiological health was relatively reasonable, but only 25.8% of the staffs had the radiological education background. From 2014 to 2018, the number of radiological health professional and technical personals inflows and outflows was 164 and 65, respectively. Each institution undertakes 14.6 radiological health responsibilities in average. The annual workload of provincial level institutions was large, but there were relatively few laboratories and instruments for radionuclide measurement and internal radiation measurement. Conclusion The provincial level radiological health technical institutions still need to strengthen the capability building and make up the short board, play the leading and guiding role in provincial regions, so as to promote the further development of the national radiological health work.
