Human cytomegalovirus(HCMV)infection is quite prevalent in population. HCMV triggers important disorders in pregnant women,immune-compromised individuals and organ-transplant patients. For dec-ades,more and more scholars believe that NK cells are important immune cells against HCMV. The activity of NK cells largely depends on the balance between the signals transducted by inhibitory receptors and activatory re-ceptors,therefore the study of NK receptors is of great importance. It may be helpful to the basic research and clinical treatment of HCMV infection. Here,this paper reviews the changes and the molecular mechanism of NK receptors in the control of HCMV infection.

Objective:To establish an ion chromatography method for the determination of methane sulfonic acid in betahistine me-sylate and evaluate the uncertainty in the measurement. Methods: An ion chromatographic column IonPac AS11-HC ( 25 mm × 4. 0 mm,5 μm) was used with 12 mmol·L-1 NaOH as the eluent and an electrical conductivity detector with the suppressor of 30 mV. Results:The results showed that methane sulfonic acid could be detected without any interference. The calibration curve was linear within the range of 10-30 μg·ml-1(r=0.999 9)and the LOQ was 0.116 μg·ml-1. The average recovery was 100.8% (RSD=1. 2%, n=9). Based on the results of experiments, the influencing factors of uncertainty in the measurement were quantitatively eval-uated. The expanded uncertainty was obtained. Conclusion:The method is simple, accurate and selective. It can be used for the de-termination of methane sulfonic acid in betahistine mesylate. Based on the evaluation of uncertainty, the analysis can help reduce the uncertainty in the measurement and improve the accuracy and reliability of the determination.

Objective To explore the level of expression, clinical signiifcance of sB 7-H 3 in the bronchoalveolar lavage lfuid (BALF) of refractory Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) pneumonia (RMPP) in children and the relationship between sB7-H3 and various cytokines. Methods The BALF of forty-three hospitalized children with RMPP (RMPP group) were collected for the diagnosis and treatment. Thirteen cases were lavaged only once and the other thirty cases had collected the BALF twice. The BALF of iffteen hospitalized children with bronchial foreign body were collected as control group. The expression levels of sB 7-H 3 , IL-1β, IL-2 and IL-36 in the BALF were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The expression levels of sB 7-H 3 , IL-1β, IL-2 and IL-36 in the BALF at the acute phase were compared with control group and the group after treatment. Analyzed the correlation between the level of sB 7-H 3 and IL-1β, IL-2 , IL-36 in the BALF of RMPP children at acute stage. Results The levels of sB 7-H 3 , IL-1β and IL-36 in the BALF of the ifrst lavage group were higher than those of single lavage group and control group (all P<0 . 05 ). The levels of sB 7-H 3 , IL-1β, IL-2 and IL-36 in the BALF of single lavage group were higher than those of control group (all P<0 . 05 ). The levels of sB 7-H 3 , IL-1β, IL-2 and IL-36 in the BALF of the second lavage group were lower than those of the ifrst lavage group (all P<0 . 05 ).The levels of sB 7-H 3 , IL-2 in the BALF of the second lavage group were higher than those in the control group (both P<0 . 05 ), but the levels of IL-1β, IL-36 in the BALF showed no difference between the second lavage group and the control group (both P>0 . 05 ). The levels of sB 7-H 3 had positive correlation with the levels of IL-1β, IL-2 and IL-36 (all P<0 . 001 ). Conclusions sB 7-H 3 may control the secretion of IL-1β, IL-2 and IL-36 , and participate in immune response and lung injury after MP infection, which may lead to occurrence and development of RMPP.

Objective To measure the morphological parameters of cervical endplate of Chinese by using computed tomography (CT)scans,and to provide an accurate morphometric basis for designing and developing the cervical disc prostheses.Methods 80 healthy subjects were scanned by CT.The parameters of each cervical vertebra from C3 to C7 were measured by CT scans including upper anteroposterior length (APLu),upper center mediolateral length (CMLu),lower anteroposterior length (APLl) and lower center mediolateral length (CMLl).These parameters were compared between genders and among different vertebral levels.Results The values of APLu, CMLu,APLl and CMLl were increased with the decreasing of cervical segment (P APLu = 0.023,P CMLu = 0.007, P APLl =0.035,P CMLl < 0.001).There was statistically significant difference in morphological parameters between genders (P < 0.05).Compared with the reported data of other different populations,the statistically significant difference in morphological parameters also existed in the study.Conclusion The study provides an accurate morphological basis for designing the suitable artificial cervical disc for Chinese population.

The aim of the present research was to investigate and analyze the hunting intentions of medical students for rural grassroots in Gansu and to provide a reference for decision-making on rural health human resource . A questionnaire is the research tool which was used to investigate the views of the senior students from six medical schools , and we studied their employment willingness to rural healthcare institutions .Chi-square test and non-condi-tional logistic regression analyses were used for data analysis .A sample of 600 medical graduates was involved in this investigation.The results of this study show that more than a half (55.6%) of the students would like to work in ru-ral, but only 13.8%of which were “very willing” to work at the rural healthcare institutions .According to the out-comes of this investigation , the number of junior college students who would like to work at the grassroots was 2.3 times the number of the undergraduate students .Medical students whose monthly salary expectations were not high ,with the household registration in rural areas , and having a better understanding of the policy of rural grass-roots em-ployment were more likely to work at the rural healthcare institutions .Based on the findings of this investigation , it can be concluded that the grassroots medical career intention of medical students is not only influenced by its own fac -tors, such as education and household registration , but also the policy of the government , school employment guid-ance and social atmosphere play an important role .The above-mentioned factors should be considered by decision-making and management departments of public healthcare .The departments should introduce a reasonable recruit-ment policy and strengthen the construction of grass-roots medical technology , equipment , and infrastructure , im-prove the grass-roots of employment environment and career development opportunities and strengthen the medical students'employment guidance work to make medical students more willing to work at rural healthcare institutions .

Objective To study the pathogenic etiology between nasopharyngeal aspirates (NPA) and bronchoalveolar lavage lfuid (BALF) in children with lower respiratory infection. Methods Multiple pathogen in NPA and BALF from 210 cases with lower respiratory tract infection was detected. Seven common respiratory virus (respiratory syncytial virus, adenovirus, in-lfuenza virus A, inlfuenza virus B, parainlfuenza 1, parainlfuenza 2, parainlfuenza 3) were detected by direct immunolfuorescence assay. MP, CP and HBoV were detected by lfuorescence quantitative PCR.HRV and hMPV were detected by RT-PCR. Aspirates were cultured for bacteria. The results of pathogen detection in secretions of upper and lower respiratory tract were analyzed. Results Total positive detection rate of NPA and BALF in 210 cases was 91.9%(193/210), which is higher than that in NPA 75.2%(158/210) and that in BALF 85.2%(179/210). Bacteria detection rate in NPA was 13.3%(28/210), and 8.6%(18/210) in BALF, without signiifcant difference (P=0.118). Bacteria detection rate in NPA and BALF was of poor consistency (Kappa=0.262). Virus detection rate in NPA was 24.3%, which is higher than that in BALF15.2%. BALF-MP detection rate was 77.6%(163/210), signiifcantly higher than that in NPA 53.3%(112/210). There are 95.5%(107/112) cases with positive results in NPA-MP detec-tioncan also be detected in the BALF-MP. MP copies in BALF were signiifcantly higher than that in NPA (4.28×106 vs. 1.31×105), and its positive rate in NPA was still higher than that in BALF. MP detection rate in NPA in children with clinical course of longer than two weeks was much lower than those with clinical course of two weeks or less. Conclusions The pathogen detection of virus and MP in NPA can be used as a reference for lower respiratory tract infection. The joint detection of NPA and BALF can improve the detection power. The sensitivity of virus detection in NPA is higher than that in BALF. NPA pathogen detection of virus and MP is of great important evidence-based medicine in the diagnosis of lower respiratory infection. MP detection rate and its copies in BALF are signiifcantly higher than that in NPA. BALF detection is the supplement of pathogen diagnosis in severe or refractory lower respiratory infections.
