Objective To investigate the infection of 23 kinds of human papillomavirus ( HPV) subtypes in female cervical epithelium samples and to analyze their relationships with age and results of cyto-logic test in Haikou area. Methods A total of 4 037 local healthy women were enrolled in this study from July 2013 to August 2016, 1 967 of whom received cervical cytology test. Cervical cell samples collected from those women were detected for HPV typing by using PCR-reverse dot blot hybridization. Results (1) The total positive rate of HPV in 4 037 samples was 22. 15% (894 cases), and the detection rates of carci-nogenic, possibly carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic HPV were 16. 13%, 3. 99% and 5. 55% (651, 161 and 224 cases), respectively. The positive rates of 6 genotypes were high, which were HPV52, 53, 81, 51, 16 and 58 in turn. (2) The detection rates of carcinogenic, possibly carcinogenic HPV and some of the gen-otypes (HPV18, 52, 53, 66) increased with age (all P<0. 05). (3) Multiple infection in HPV-positive women accounted for 24. 38% (218/894), in which the infection rates of carcinogenic types declined with age and the numbers of HPV genotypes in carcinogenic infections were negatively correlated with age ( both P<0. 05). (4) Only 2. 49% (49/1 967) of the samples were positive for cervical cytologic test, classified into the ≥ASC-US ( atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance ) group. The detection rates of eight kinds of carcinogenic and two kinds of possibly carcinogenic HPV in≥ASC-US group were significantly higher than those in the negative (no intraepithelial lesion or malignant lesion, NILM) group (all P<0. 05). Conclusion This study indicates that Haikou women have higher rates of HPV infection, especially the eld-erly group. HPV subtype infections present some regional characteristics and are mainly single type infec-tion. Cervical cancer screening should be combined with tests for HPV and cytology analysis to improve its effectiveness.

Objective To investigate the expression of pancreatic thioredoxin-1 (TRX-1) in rats with acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP) and the effect of pretreatment of melatonin on its expression. Methods Male Spraque-Dawley rats (n = 12) were randomly divided to ANP group, melatonin group, control group with 24 rats in each group. The rats in ANP group received three intraperitoneal injections of 25 ml/kg body weight 6% L-arginine at an interval of 1 h to induce ANP. The rats in melatonin group received intraperitoneal injections of 25 ml/kg body weight 6% melatonin 30 min before ANP induction; rats in ANP group and control group received intraperitoneal injections of same amount of saline. Rats were sacrificed at 6 h, 12 h and 24 h after ANP induction. The serum level of amylase was measured and the pathological evaluation of pancreatic tissues was performed. The concentrations of malondialdehyde (MDA) and myeloperoxidase (MPO) in pancreatic tissues were measured. The expressions of TRX-1 protein were detected by immunohistochemistry and the expressions of TRX-1 mRNA in pancreatic tissues were determined by RT-PCR.Results In ANP group, serum level of amylase, MDA, MPO, TRX-1 mRNA and TRX-1 protein in pancreatic tissues were (3 012 ±1 425) U/L, (4.13 ± 1. 85)nmol/mg prot,(7.45 ± 1.26)nmol/mg prot, 0.68 ±0. 18, 66.8 ±8. 1, while they were (1 835±499)U/L, (3.03 ±2.12) nmol/mg prot, (5. 32 ± 1.06) nmol/mg prot, 0.50±0.09, 80. 29 ±8. 14, respectively in melatonin group, the values in melatonin group were significantly lower thanthose in ANP group (P < 0.05). The peak value of TRX-1 mRNA and TRX-1 protwein expressions shifted from 12 h after ANP induction in ANP group to 6 h after ANP induction in melatonin group. Conclusions The expression of pancreatic TRX-1 protein and TRX-1 mRNA in rats with ANP was significantly increased. Melatonin pretreatment could promote pancreatic tissues to express TRX-1 protein and TRX-1 mRNA, and may be protective for pancreatic tissues damages.

Objective This study intends to explore the impacts of the establishment of chest pain center(CPC) on the door-to-balloon(D-to-B) time in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) by different transfer ways to hospital. Methods A regular CPC and a regional cooperative network were established based on the pre-hospital transmitted real-time 12-lead electrocardiogram system. The STEMI patients were divided into the following three groups by the different transfer ways to hospital before and after the establishment of chest pain center:self-referral groups (group A1, n=52, and group A2, n=65), EMS (emergency medical service ) groups (group B1, n=31, and group B2, n=92) and transfer PCI groups (group C1, n=23, and group C2, n=552). The mean D-to-B time and the rate of D-to-B below 90 minutes were compared between before and after the establishment of CPC and the reasons of reperfusion delay were analyzed. Results There were no statistical differences of the average D-to-B time [(123±78) min vs.(140±123)min, P > 0.05] and the rate of D-to-B time below 90 min (44.2%vs. 46.2%) between group A1 and group A2. The average D-to-B time was significantly shortened in group B2 [(89±66)min] while compared with that in group B1 [(155±115)min, P<0.05] and the rate of D-to-B time below 90 min was remarkably elevated in group B2 compared with that of group B1 (69.6%vs. 32.3%, P<0.05). The average D-to-B time was significant shorter in group C2 than in group C1 [(77±43)min vs. (337±662)min, P<0.05] and the rate of D-to-B time below 90 min was remarkable higher in group C2 than in group C1 (75.7%vs. 21.7%, P<0.05). The longer D-to-B time in self-referral groups was mainly due to the delay of getting informed consent before PCI when occupied catheterization laboratory was the major cause of reperfusion delay in EMS groups and transfer PCI groups. Conclusions The establishment of CPC may significantly shorten the D-to-B time and increase the rate of D-to-B time below 90 min for these patients admitted by EMS and transferred from non-PCI hospitals. However, the pathway for the self-referral patients should be further modified.

To investigate the relationship between plasma levels of TXB2, 6-KPGF1?, cAMP and cGMP and the hemodynamics of hypoxemia, 30 patients with chronic cor pulmonale (CCP) were studied. The influence of hypoxemia and isosorbide dinitrate therapy was also observed. The results showed: 1) Plasma TXB2 level was significantly higher and plasma 6- KPGF1? level was significantly lower in CCP patients than in healthy controls. There was a negative correlation between 6 KPGFl? and-Ppa levels and a positive correlation between TXB2, TXB2/ 6 KPGF1? ratio and Ppa levels. 2) High levels of plasma TXB2 and TXB2 / 6-KPGF1? were found in hypoxemia cases when the PaO2 level was less than 6.67 kPa (50 mmHg). 3) Reduced Ppa after isosorbide dinitrate infusion elevated the plasma levels of 6-KPGF1?, cAMP, and the cAMP/cGMP ratio, and reduced those of TXB2 and the TXB2/6-K.PGF1? ratio.
