Objective To understand the evolutionary characterization of hemagglutinin (HA)gene of pandemic H1N1 influenza virus in Guangdong during 2009-2011. MethodsWe selected 83 pandemic H1N1 strains isolated in Guangdong during 2009-2011. The HA1 genes were sequenced and analyzed comparatively by Bioedit 7.0 and MEGA 4.0. ResultsThe evolutionary rate of Hal gene of pandemic H1N1 and seasonal H1N1 viruses was 5.2×10-3 substitutions/site/year, higher than that of seasonal H1N1 viruses. Most amino acid changes in HA1 molecules accumulated on the surface of the molecule and were partly located in antigenic sites. Two fatal infections were detected with a mutation at HA residue 222, in one virus with a change D222G, and in one virus D222N. ConclusionThe phylogenetic analysis demonstrates that the influenza epidemic in Guangdong at the beginning of 2011 are due to occurrence of genetic changes of pandemic H1N1 virus. The amino acid change at residue 222 of the HA1 are likely to be associated with severe or even fatal illness.

Objective: To explore the effects of multidisciplinary team based nursing intervention on nutritional status, muscle strength, physical function and daily living ability of super-aged patients with sarcopenia. Methods: A total of 29 super-aged patients with sarcopenia from July to November in 2017 in Department of Geriatric, Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital, the Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School were selected as the observation group with multidisciplinary team intervention. And 29 super-aged patients with sarcopenia from February to June 2017 were selected as the control group with routine management. Nutritional indicators, muscle strength, physical activity function and daily living ability scores were compared between the two groups at 1 and 6 months after intervention. Results: After 1 month of intervention, hemoglobin and serum albumin was (118.79±11.47), (35.86±5.73) g/Lin the observation group and (112.27±11.69), (31.35±5.48) g/L in the control group, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (t value was 2.09, 2.98, P<0.05 or 0.01). After 6 months of intervention, hemoglobin, serum albumin, muscle strength, physical activity function and daily living ability was (124.66±13.52) g/L, (38.47±6.02) g/L, (23.75±3.61) g, (9.18±1.85) points, (86.19±14.36) points in the observation group, and (112.03±11.89) g/L, (31.01±5.91) g/L, (19.15±3.19) g, (6.14±1.69) points, (64.12±15.83) points in the control group, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (t value was 3.68-6.37, all P<0.01). Conclusions Nursing intervention based on multidisciplinary team can improve the nutritional status, muscle strength,physical function and quality of life of super-aged patients with sarcopenia.

Objective:To explore the influencing factors of hospitalization cost of acute myeloid leukemia, to group the cases based on decision tree model and to provide reference for improving the DRG management in this regard.Methods:Homepage data were retrieved from the medical records with acute myeloid leukemia as the main diagnosis (the top four ICD codes were C92.0, C92.4, C92.5, and C93.0). These patients were discharged from the clinical hematology department of the Fujian Institute of Hematology from January 2020 to December 2021. Then the influencing factors of hospitalization expenses were identified using Wilcoxon rank sum test or Kruskal-Wallis rank sum test and multiple linear stepwise regression analysis, with such factors used as classification nodes. The decision tree model of χ2 automatic interactive testing method was used to group the cases so included. At the same time, the included cases were grouped according to the trial run C-DRG version in Fujian province, for comparison of the differences between the two grouping methods. Results:The length of stay, the type of treatment, whether associated complications and age of patients were found as the influencing factors for the hospitalization costs of patients with acute myeloid leukemia, and such factors were included in the decision tree model to form 9 case mixes. The variance reduction of this model was 75.77%, featuring a high inter-group heterogeneity, and the coefficient of variation was 0.33-0.61, featuring a low in-group difference. The patients were divided into two groups according to the C-DRG version in Fujian province. The variance reduction of this method was 27.57%, featuring a low inter-group heterogeneity, and the coefficients of variation were 0.59 and 1.25, featuring high in-group difference.Conclusions:The cases of acute myeloid leukemia were grouped based on length of stay, type of treatment, whether accompanied by complications, and age proved reasonable enough to serve as reference for DRG management and cost control of this disease.

OBJECTIVE The abnormal amyloid-β(Aβ)and oxidative stress assiociated with the progression of Alzheimer disease(AD).Quercetin has been reported to possess antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties in neurodegenerative disorders.In this present study,we designed to characterize the mechanisms by which quer-cetin exerts neuroprotective effects in murine neuroblas-toma N2a cells stably expressing human Swedish mutant amyloid precursor protein(N2a/APP).METHODS N2a/APP cells were treated with quercetin at concentrations of 10,20 and 50 μ mol·L-1 for 24 h.Cell viability was examined with CCK-8 assays.The protein levels of ERK1/2 and Akt were detected by Western blotting.Intra-cellular reactive oxygen species(ROS)was detected by a fluorescent probe 2,7-dichlorofluorescein diacetate(DCFH-DA).The mitochondrial membrane potential(Δψ m)in N2a/APP cells was detected by using JC-1 staining method.Immunofluorescence was used to detect the generation of 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine(8-OHdG)and 4-hydroxynonenal(4-HNE).RESULTS Quercetin attenuated the enhancement of p-ERK1/2,reductions of p-Akt,and decreased levels of APP expression.More-over,quercetin alleviated loss of mitochondria membrane potential(MMP)since it attenuates these oxidative stress,as reflected in the levels of ROS,4-HNE and 8-OHdG,was elevated in N2a/APP cells and these effects were again ameliorated by quercetin.CONCLUSION Neuroprotection by quercetin in N2a/APP cells involves normalizing the impaired mitochondrial function and reducing oxidative stress via inactivation of the ERK1/2 and activation of the Akt pathways.
