Objective To understand the current status of synthetic drug use and associated factors among men who have sex with men (MSM) at high risk of HIV infection.Methods A crosssectional study was conducted in Guangzhou,Wuxi and Shenzhen through January to August 2017.MSM at high risk of HIV infection were recruited from attendants at the health clinics,through internet advertisement and snowball sampling method.Eligible MSM were the ones who had met the following criteria:≥ 18 years old,having either 2 male sex partners,or condomless anal sex with a casual male sex partner,or a STD historg during the past 6 months.Data regarding demographic,sexual behavior,HIV/STD testing history and previous drug use were collected by sely-administered questionnaires.Blood was also drawn for HIV testing.Results Of the 603 MSM at high risk of HIV,25.5％ (154/603,95％CI:22.0％-29.0％) of them had used drugs in the past 6 months,including 29.1％ (88/302,95％CI:24.0％-34.3％) in Guangzhou,26.3％ (40/152,95％CI:19.2％-33.4％)in Shenzhen,and 17.4％ (26/149,95％CI:11.3％-23.6％) in Wuxi.'Rush'(85.1％,131/154) was the most commonly used drug.Results from the multivariable logistic regression revealed that drug use was associated with the following factors:having multiple casual sexual partners (aOR=3.24,95％CI:1.29-7.43) and alcohol use (aOR=1.78,95％CI:1.12-2.80) in the past 6 months after adjusting for age,education and monthly income.Conclusions Drug use seemed common among MSM population at high risk of HIV infection and was associated with higher risk behavior that leading to HIV infection.Synthetic drug use among MSM deserved more attention.

Ulcerative colitis （UC） is one of the main manifestations of inflammatory bowel disease. Because of its lingering and refractory nature， it has become a major public health challenge worldwide. In the treatment of UC， traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） effectively relieves clinical syndromes， shortens the treatment period， reduces the frequency of recurrence， improves the quality of life， and reduces the occurrence of complications. To study the specific mechanism of TCM in the treatment of UC and screen out suitable drugs under the guidance of syndrome differentiation， the suitable UC animal model in the combination of disease and syndrome is used as an important method. This paper summarized and compared the UC animal model in the combination of disease and syndrome from five aspects， including selection of model animal species， sexual selection， preparation methods of UC animal model in the combination of disease and syndrome， indicators of model evaluation， and the main mechanism of TCM intervention in UC animal model in the combination of disease and syndrome. This paper aimed to provide references for the establishment of the optimal UC animal model in the combination of disease and syndrome. Research shows that UC syndrome mainly studied at present includes damp-heat syndrome， spleen deficiency syndrome， spleen-kidney Yang deficiency syndrome， spleen deficiency and dampness accumulation syndrome， liver depression and spleen deficiency syndrome， and cold-heat mixed syndrome.In the modeling method， the etiology simulation method is mainly used to first copy the syndrome type before the chemical agents or immune preparations were used to induce the disease model，and rats were often selected as the research objects，and the replication cycle was 7 to 28 days.The selected chemical reagents were mainly 5% dextran sulfate sodium（DSS） free drink, 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid（TNBS） 100 mg·kg^-1 and 50% ethanol 0.25 mL mixed reagent enema.This model replication method can take into account both UC pathogenesis characteristics of pathology of western medicine and TCM， syndrome type of traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine for interpretation pathological changes and TCM treatment of UC associated mechanism is of great significance， and help to help toestablish the optimal condition in combination with UC animal models for reference， for further research on prevention and treatment of UC specific mechanism of action of TCM model basis.
