The principal role of neutrophils in tissue repair has long been thought to be confined to killing bacteria and clearing necrotic tissue. However, recent studies have shown that neutrophils are also one of the sources of pro inflammatory cytokines and growth factors, such as IL 1, TNF ?, bFGF, VEGF,TGF ? 1 that probably serve as the earliest signals to activate local fibroblasts, epidermal cells and vascular endothelial cells and initiate tissue repair. It was also reported that neutrophils improved the proliferation removal of injured epithelial cells in airway and corneal epithelial cells. It is very important for the successful tissue repair that the function of neutrophils is normal.

Objective:
To analyze the incidence and trends for incidence of stroke in Jinhua City from 2015 to 2020, so as to provide insights into stroke control.
Methods:
The data pertaining to incidence of stroke among registered residents in Jinhua City from 2015 to 2020 were collected from Zhejiang Provincial Information Management System for Surveillance on Chronic Diseases. The incidence of stroke was estimated and standardized to the Sixth National Population Census in 2010. The trend in incidence of stroke was evaluated using annual percent change (APC).
Results:
Totally 120 993 stroke cases were reported in Jinhua City from 2015 to 2020, and the annual mean crude incidence and standardized incidence of stroke were 415.68/105 and 339.67/105, respectively. There were no significant trends in crude incidence (APC=0.30%, t=0.234, P=0.827) and standardized incidence of stroke (APC=-0.99%, t=0.946, P=0.398). The crude incidence of stroke was significantly higher in men than in women (457.38/105 vs. 372.62/105; χ2 =1 262.329, P<0.001), and the crude incidence of stroke appeared a tendency towards a rise with age (χ2 trend=377 708.263, P<0.001), with a tendency towards a decline among residents at ages of 75 years and older (APC=-2.66%, t=3.078, P=0.037). There were 94 038 residents with ischemic stroke (77.72%) and 24 176 residents with hemorrhagic stroke (19.98%), and both the crude incidence (APC=1.78%, t=3.440, P=0.026) and standardized incidence of hemorrhagic stroke (APC=2.66%, t=3.911, P=0.017) appeared a tendency towards a decline.
Conclusions
The incidence of stroke remained relatively stable in Jinhua City from 2015 to 2020; however, the overall incidence was still high. Ischemic stroke was the predominant type of stroke, and men and middle-aged and elderly people are at high risk of stroke.

Objective To study the effects of systemic irradiation and conglutinant drug W11-a12 on the number and some functions of wound nentrophils (Neu). Methods Wound Neu was collected from sponges which were implanted in rat's dorsum incision. The number of Neu, as well as the phagocytic function and motility of wound Neu were measured. Results After 4,6,8 Gy systemic irradiation, the number of white blood cells and Neu in wound, as well as the phagocytic function and chemotactic motility of wound Neu, were significantly decreased at 24 h, 48 h after wounding. W11-a12 markedly increased the number of wound Neu, improved the phagocytic function and chemotactic motility of wound Neu at 24 h, 48 h after wounding despite the rats were radiated or not. Conclusion The results indicated that the decreased number and function of wound Neu in the early stage of wound healing contributed to the impairment of repair after systemic irradiation. W11-a12 accelerated normal and irradiation-impaired wound healing partly by increasing the number of wound Neu and improving the Neu function.

Objective To investigate telomerase activity in patients with psoriasis. Methods The telomerase activity in the skin lesions of patients was detected by TRAP (Telomeric repeat amplification protocol)——ELISA which is based upon PCR amplification of the initial telomerase product and detected by ELISA. Results Telomerase activity was detected in the lesions of psoriatic patients, but the level of it was lower in comparison with that in tissues of malignant tumor and K562 cell line. Conclusion These findings support that the increase of telomerase activity may be linked to the pathogenesis of psoriasis and that the telomerase activity can be detected not only in malignant tumors but also in nonmalignant skin diseases.
