A quail-origin subtype of the influenza virus was isolated from a human-infecting H7N9 subtype of the avian influenza virus found in a live poultry market and was given the name A/Quail/Hangzhou/1/ 2013 (H9N2). We analyzed the whole genome of this virus and its biologic characteristics. Sequence analyses suggested that the: HA and NS genes belonged to a CK/BJ/1/94-like lineage; NA, NP, PA and PB1 genes belonged to a SH/F/98-like lineage; M and PB2 genes belonged to a G1-like lineage. Analyses of key amino acids showed that the cleavage site in HA protein was PSRSSR ↓ GL, and that the HA protein had a human receptor-binding site with Leu226. Deletion of amino acids 69 - 73 was detected in the stalk of NA protein, the M2 protein had an Asn31 mutation, and the NS1 protein had two mutations at Ser42, Ala149. The intravenous pathogenicity of this virus was 0.36. A study in chickens suggested that all inoculated birds shed the virus from the trachea and cloaca on the third day post-infection (p. i. ) until 11 days. All chickens that had direct contact shed the virus on the second day p. i. until 8 days. Results of virus reisolation suggested that lung and tracheal tissues could shed the virus in 5 days, whereas the other organs could shed the virus in 3 days. These results suggest that this virus strain is H9N2 subtype LPAIV, whose lineage is prevalent in mainland China. This research provides evidence on how to monitor and prevent the H9N2 subtype of the avian influenza virus.

Objective To explore the risk factors of vascular cognitive impairment (VCI)among Chinese population, and to clarify the scientific evidences for further prevention and treatment.Methods PubMed,CNKI,CBM,VIP and Wangfang databases (from 2002.1 to 2013.1)were searched to collect case-control studies or cohort studies studying risk factors of VCI among Chinese population. Meta-analysis was performed to calculate combined odds ratio (OR)or mean difference (MD)and its 95% confidence interval (95%CI).Results A total of 42 proper papers involving 3 282 cases and 7 815 controls were included in the review.For categorical variables,pooled OR and its 95% CI were as follows:hypertension 2.56 (2.03 - 3.21 ), hyperlipidemia1.79 (1.39 - 2.30 ), hyperglycemia 2.46 (1.90-3.19),Leukoaraiosis 5.46 (2.60-11.46),cerebral infraction multiple foci 4.39 (2.61-7.38),stroke history3.79(2.35-6.11),left hemisphere lesions 2.13(1.42-3.20),smoking 1.51 (1.08-2.11),drinking 0.99(0.73-1.36),basal ganglia lesions 2.15(1.55-2.99),thalamus lesions 2.34(1.57-3.47);for continuous variables,MD and its 95%CI were as follows:level of TG 0.35(0.15-0.55),level of TC 0.44(-0.16-1.04),level of folic acid -4.10(-5.50- -2.69),vitamin B12 -130.44(-225.46--35.41).Conclusion Except for drinking and level of TC, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia, leukoaraiosis,cerebral infraction multiple foci,stroke history,left hemisphere lesions,smoking,basal ganglia lesions,thalamus lesions,high level of TG,low level of folic acid and vitamin B12 might be the risk factors of VCI among Chinese population.

AIM: To investigate the effect of antisense oligonucleotides on expression of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) in macrophages. METHODS: MIF phosphorothioate oligonucleotides was designed and synthesized. The phosphorothioate antisense, sense and missense oligonucleotides of mouse MIF was transfected into macrophages, separately. After that, macrophages were incubated with LPS. Cell culture medium was collected for MIF protein detection by EIA. Cellular RNA was extracted and the expression of MIF mRNA was examined by RT-PCR analysis. RESULTS: LPS stimulation resulted in a specific time-dependent expression of MIF derived from macrophages. MIF mRNA and MIF protein level increased at 6 h and reached a plateau at 9-12 h after LPS stimulation. The macrophages treated with antisense oligonucleotides showed a significant decrease in MIF mRNA and MIF protein after LPS stimulation than those with LPS stimulation only and LPS plus sense or missense oligonucleotides (P

Objective To explore the clinical significance of the coagulation and fibrolysis parameters changes for the knowledge of complicated thrombosis after chemotherapy in malignant lymphomas. Methods Morning fasting anti-coagulation blood samples were taken to detect plasma prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), fibrinogen (FIB) and thrombin time (TT) with automatic coagulation analyzer in 71 hospitalized malignant lymphomas and 20 normal controls. The plasma D-dimer levels of the two groups were detected with immunoturbidimetry. Results The levels of plasma APTT, Fib and D-dimer in 71 malignant lynphomas were (30.44±1.43) s, (3.28±0.20) g/L, (297.05±56.59) μg/L respectively, which were significantly higher than those in normal controls at the levels of (23.72±0.76) s, (2.57±0.22) g/L, (94.50±26.07) μg/L respectively (P <0.05). The coagulation and fibrolysis parameters were of no statistic differences between the normal controls and lymphomas of stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ (P >0.05). The APTT and Fib levels in lymphomas of stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ were higher than those in normal controls and lymphomas of stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ (P <0.05). There are 7 malignant lymphomas complicated venous thrombosis . Of the 7 cases, the FIB and D-dimer levels were higher than those of stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ, furthermore the D-dimer levels were higher than those of stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ. Conclusion The abnormalities of coagulation and fibrolysis parameters occurred in malignant lymphomas with requirement of periodic monitoring. After chemotherapy, the lymphoma patients had a high incidence of venous thrombosis, which need early prevention for prolongation of the survival.

Objective To investigate the cognition and attitude towards the elderly family nursing among nurses and college students in Chengde, and analyze its influencing factors. Methods A total of 1000 college students and nurses in Chengde were investigated by self-designed questionnaire about their cognition and attitude to elderly family nursing. Results Nurses' cognition and attitude towards the elderly family nursing was better than nursing college students, medical students were better than non-medical students; and there was no statistical significance about their expectation for government's senior citizen service among different groups. Conclusions More attention should be paid to family members' attitudetowards the elderly home care, and should strengthen the elderly family care through various way.

Objective To investigate the prevalence and influencing factors of dysmenorrhea among female college students in Changchun city, so as to provide scientific basis for health promotion and effective preventive measurement. Methods Non-randomized convenience sampling and face to face interview were used to collect information from female college students aged between 17 and 25 years in 14 universities in Changchun. Chi-square test and logistic regression model were used to analyze influencing factors of dysmenorrhea. Results The average age of 1 071 subjects was 21.21 ± 1.83 years. The prevalence of dysmenorrhea was 86.55%. The proportion of mild dysmenorrhea among the subjects was 62.56%, followed by 33.01% with moderate dysmenorrhea and 4.43% with severe dysmenorrhea; 80.76% of subjects paid attention to keep warm in the daily life. Normal BMI, sleeping before 23 o'clock or between 23 to 24 o'clock, taking exercise frequently or everyday might be the protective factors of dysmenorrhea, and the OR values (95% CI) were respectively as 0.60 (0.37-0.97), 0.56 (0.37-0.84), 0.42 (0.22-0.78) and 0.63(0.42-0.97). Tension and the family history of dysmenorrhea might be the risk factors, and the OR values (95%CI) were respectively 1.63 (1.10-2.41), 4.84 (2.80-8.35). Conclusion The prevalence of dysmenorrhea is high among female college students. Lacking exercise, BMI less than 18.5 kg/m2, staying up late, tension and the family history of dysmenorrhea may be the influencing factors of dysmenorrhea among female college students.
