Objective To investigate the time distribution characteristics and the epidemic trends of imported malaria cases in Yunnan Province. Methods The malaria case records and epidemiological history data of Yunnan Province were collected, and the local infection cases were excluded. The data were statistical analyzed. Results The imported malaria cases had a sig-nificantly seasonal periodicity(Q=26.574,P<0.05)and epidemic trends(Q=35.487,P<0.05). The imported peak was in May,while February was the lowest month of imported cases,and the difference was significant(Z=-2.619,P<0.05). The simple seasonal prediction model was the best model(R2= 0.677,BIC = 4.867)for forecast while the residual sequence was white noise(Q=14.226,P>0.05). By using the model to predict the cases in January,February and March of 2016,the num-ber(95%CI)were 29(7-50),22(0-44)and 31(8-54),and the actual number of imported malaria cases were 29,24 and 38 cases respectively and all cases were included in the 95%CI. Conclusion The imported malaria cases in Yunnan Province had a significantly seasonal periodicity and epidemic trends,and the established model has good prediction on the recent cases.

Background and purpose:Laparoscopic partial nephrectomy has been one of the surgery options for patients with single renal carcinoma of T1 stage. Under the effect of some factors, intraoperative renal blood lfow clamping somtimes exceeds the safe limit of 30 minutes of warm ischemia time (WIT) for renal tissues, that might results in warm ischemia-reperfusion injury to severe extent. However, there still remains controversy about the depth of this warm ischemia-reperfusion injury. So this study aimed to evaluate the effects of longer WIT on ipsilateral residual renal tissues. Methods:Forty-four patients underwent retroperitoneal laparoscopic partial nephrectomy from Jan. 2012 to Jan. 2014. All of them were divided into observe group (WIT>30 min) and control group (WIT≤30 min). The differences of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of operative kidney Pre- and post-operatively between two groups were analyzed. Results: The pre- and post-operative GFRs of operative kidney in observe group were 29.3-53.0 mL/min[(33.1±5.2) mL/min], 23.1-40.5 mL/min[(27.3±5.9) mL/min] respectively (P=0.054). The pre-and post-operative GFRs of operative kidney in control group were 27.4-49.6 mL/min[(32.3±4.1) mL/min], 23.8-44.4 mL/min[(29.1±5.0) mL/min], respectively (P=0.07). There was no statistically differences of the depth of the decrease of GFRs after surgery between the two groups (P=0.051). Conclusion: WIT of 30-60 min does not result in statistically signiifcant injury for ipsilateral residual renal function. However, it is still necessary to reserve more ipsilateral residual renal function through minimizing WIT under the premise of ensuring the safety of surgery.

Objective To analyze the polymorphism of histidine rich protein 2(HRP II)gene in Plasmodium falciparum (Pfhrp2)from falciparum malaria patients in Yunnan Province,so as to lay the foundation for studying the defection of antigen genes of Plasmodium. Methods The filter paper blood samples and related information of falciparum malaria cases reported were obtained in Yunnan Province from August 2012 to September 2015. Under the guidance of the specific primers,the exon2 regions in Pfhrp2 gene in P. falciparum from DNA samples were amplified by PCR,and the PCR products were sequenced. The sequences of exon2 region in Pfhrp2 gene were blasted by comparing with the reference sequences AY816237,AY816240,and AY816301. Next,the polymorphism of the sequence in exon2 region of Pfhrp2 gene was analyzed by MEGA 5.04 software. The conserved sites and genetic distances between sequences were calculated by using the software as well,and the clustering tree was drawn according to the genetic distances between the amino acid sequences. Results A total of 218 bloods samples from the falciparum malaria cases in 15 prefectures of Yunnan Province were collected,and the sources of infection included Yun?nan,Africa and Myanmar. The PCR results showed that the exon2 regions in Pfhrp2 genes of 155 samples were positive by am?plification and their products were sequenced successfully. The sequence analysis showed that the length range of the amino acid residues of exon2 region in Pfhrp2 gene was from 115 aa to 298 aa,the average length was 239.7 aa. There was no statistically significance among the means of the amino acid residues of the isolates from Africa( 239.9 aa),Myanmar(239.5 aa)and Yun?nan(241.6 aa)(F=0.025,P>0.05). All the 155 amino acid sequences ended with type 12 repeat,98.1%(152/155)of them started with type 1 repeat and 1.9%(3/155)of them started with type 2. Type 2 presented most frequently repeat in all the se?quences and the average repeat times were 12.9. The homologous locus of the DNA sequences in exon2 regions of the 155 Pfhrp2 genes was 894 bp,among which the conservative sites accounted for 20.6%(186/894),and the variable sites for 78.2%(699/894). The genetic distances between the sequences of Africa isolates ranged from 0 to 0.741,and those of the Myanmar and Yun?nan isolates were 0-0.948 and 0-0.750,respectively. The cluster analysis showed that all the 155 sequences clustered into 3 cat?egories on genetic distances between amino acid sequences according to the size of the amino acid sequence length. At the same level,the sequences had approximate lengths and amino acid repeat types. Conclusion The sequence of exon2 region in Pfhrp2 gene of P. falciparum from falciparum malaria cases in Yunnan Province is highly polymorphic,the P. falciparum iso?lates are clustered mainly according to the size of the amino acid sequence of exon2 region in Pfhrp2 gene.

AIM: To evaluate the effect of cardiac pacing with a His bundle lead on cardiac electrophysiological and haemodynamical action in dogs and the experience of location technique with His bundle pacing lead. METHODS: With opening chest operation in general-anesthetized dogs, a special lead was located at His bundle based on a typical "H" wave and narrow duration of the QRS wave recorded in ECG; Platinum leads were fixed at the epicardium of the right ventricular apex (RVA) respectively, forming HisB- VVI pacing,RVA- VVI pacing. Cardiac electrophysiological and haemodynamical parameters were compared in sinus rhythm and the different pacing models. RESULTS: The threshold of HisB pacing is similar to that of RVA pacing. Cardiac output(CO)is increased about 18.81% in HisB- VVI pacing than self. It is decreased about 5.41% in RVA- VVI pacing. SV is similar to self,but it is 25.59% higher in HisB- VVI than RVA- VVI . LVSW and RVSW in His B- VVI pacing is superior to that in RVA- VVI . CONCLUSION: His bundle pacing significantly improves cardiac function compared with the RVA- VVI pacing because it can maintain normal physiological electronic activation sequence and systolic synchrony and have a better haemodynamics effect.neral-anesthetizeddogs,as

Objective To understand the geographical features of malaria in Yunnan Province,so as to provide the refer?ence for malaria elimination. Methods The data of malaria in Yunnan Province from 2012 to 2015 were collected and ana?lyzed. Results Totally 2 586 malaria cases were reported in Yunnan Province from 2012 to 2015,in which 274(10.60%) were local cases and 2 311(89.37%)were abroad imported,and one(0.03%)was domestic imported. The imported malaria cases and local cases were analyzed according to the sources and locations respectively,and the arithmetic means of the num?bers of imported and local cases were 96.29 and 10.96 respectively,the standard deviations of the numbers of imported and local cases were 421.18 and 19.12 respectively,and the difference of the means was not significant(Z=-0.326,P>0.10). Both the imported and local malaria cases could be clustered into five sections by the number of 5. The Herfendal?Hirshman indexes of the imported and local malaria cases were 8 121 and 1 598 respectively. Conclusions There is no significant difference of the distribution between the imported and local malaria cases,and they should be attaching equal importance. The non?uniform de?gree of imported cases is higher than that of the local cases,while both of them could be divided into five major clusters in the prevention and control work.

Inflammation is the basic pathological process of a variety of diseases, which involved in the occurrence and development of female infertility-related diseases, especially in bacteria and viruses infection of reproductive system, resulting in infertility. However, inflammatory reactions and factors also exist in normal physiological processes, such as endometrial morphologic changes in menstrual cycles, follicle genesis, ovulation, luteinization, pregnancy, etc. In addition, inflammation is also involved in the occurrence of some reproductive endocrine and metabolic diseases, such as obesity, endometriosis, polycystic ovary syndrome and so on. In the past, the understanding to inflammation in reproductive system was mostly limited to the inflammatory diseases and resulted in fertility decline or sterility, infertility, and other problems, which was not comprehensive. This review summarized the normal physiological inflammation and disease-related inflammation in the reproductive system, and described the evaluation of inflammatory state, as well as relevant prevention and treatment suggestions.

Objective:To determine the effect of community management based on the Roy′s adaptation model (RAM) in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Methods:This study was a cluster randomized controlled study, with the community as the cluster unit, and selected 805 COPD patients from 8 communities in Xuzhou City who had completed community registration before June 2019. A total of 735 patients actually completed follow-up and participated in intervention evaluation. They were randomly divided into control group (362 cases) and intervention group (373 cases) by random number table method. The control group received routine follow-up, while the intervention group received RAM intervention for 6 months. The forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1)/forced volume vital capacity (FVC) ratio (FEV 1/FVC) and the modified British medical research council (mMRC) were used to assess the pulmonary function. The hospital anxiety and depression scales (HADS) were used to evaluate the mental health. The Chinese version of the Short Form Coping and Adaption Processing Scale (CAP-15) was used to assess the adaptive capacity. And the St. George′s Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) was used to evaluate the quality of life in COPD patients. The t test or χ 2 test was used for pre-intervention comparisons between groups, and the repetitive measure analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used for post-intervention comparisons between groups. Results:After 6 months intervention, there were no significant differences in FEV 1/FVC radio between the two groups [(0.61±0.11) vs (0.62±0.12)] ( P=0.172). The scores of mMRC [(2.04±0.33) vs (2.77±0.31) points], HAD-A [(5.28±4.28) vs (6.99±4.41) points], HAD-D [(5.82±5.12) vs (7.27±4.93) points] and SGRQ [(40.17±9.30) vs (53.69±9.77) points] were all lower in the intervention group than those in the control group (all P<0.001). The CAPS-15 score was higher in the intervention group than that in the control group [(35.87±3.62) vs (26.1±3.47)] ( P<0.001). Conclusion:RAM could be used in community management of COPD patients, which could improve their dyspnea symptoms and psychological and physiological functions, also improve their adaptability and quality of life.
