Objective To explore the heredity susceptibility of children to Kawasaki disease (KD) through studying expression and genomic density polymorphism of peripheral erythrocyte complement receptor-1 (ECRI). Methods Thirty cases of KD patients and 28 cases of healthy children were included in this study. The rates of red blood cell (RBC)-C3bRR and RBC-ICR were detected by method described elsewhere. The ECR1 activity and genomic density polymorphism were detected by Hind Ⅲ restriction enzyme digestion polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. Results Rates of RBCoC3bRR of KD patients during the acute phase was significantly lower than that of the control group (P < 0.01), and remained lower than the control group during the recovering phase (P < 0.05). The rates of RBC-ICR were significantly higher in KD patients than that of the control group (P < 0.05). Frequencies of HL and LL genotypes of KD patients were more than those of the control group (P < 0.01). A significant difference was found in the frequency distribution of ECR1 genotype between the two groups (P < 0.01). L allele frequency in the patient group was higher than that in the control group. Conclusions Depressed RBC immune function in KD patients may be linked to the high frequency of L allele, which implies the genomic density polymorphism of ECR1 play an important role in determining susceptibility to Kawasaki disease.

Objective:To analysis the construction of the world's top PhaseⅠclinical trial registration agencies, compare their size, composition, operation and funding, to provide further reference for the construction of clinical trial agency in China.Methods:Search for PhaseⅠclinical trial research agencies by region on clinicaltrials.gov. Collecting information about the agency’s management, staffing, implementation in Asia, America and Europe. Descriptive analysis was carried out to explore the type, proportion and operation among different regions, the organizational structure, operational management and effectiveness of each agency from different regions were compared.Results:The United States, Europe and East Asia are dense areas of PhaseⅠclinical research around the world. The types of agencies in the United States, Britain, France, Germany, South Korea, Japan, and Israel are mainly enterprises. Among other types of agencies, the organizational models are diversified. The agencies have different spatial distances from medical institutions, but possess relatively consistent scale and institutional operation. All the agencies have a stable source of funding.Conclusions:In order to strengthen the construction of clinical trial agencies in China, we should speed up the establishment of a close connection mechanism to promote deep cooperation in clinical trials. Control the construction scale and maintain stable input of the agency. Meanwhile, establish and strengthen international exchanges and cooperation.

Objective:To study the international situation of technology innovation and transfer, to improve the performance in the health field of China.Methods:Collect data and status quo of innovation and transformation of scientific and technological achievements in 10 World-class research universities and hospitals through literature review, and conduct summary analysis.Results:According to the study, the health field is the main arena of technology innovation and transfer in which the status of the main body of innovation of hospitals cannot be ignored, and the transformation ability of some hospitals is higher than universities.Technology innovation and transfer in the health field is characterized by multiple disciplines, long-term and high cost, and it is necessary to build a full ecological chain from research and development (R&D) to production and commercialization.Conclusions:The dominant position of the health field and hospitals in technology innovation and transfer needs to be emphasized.Interdisciplinary collaboration and innovative economy building should be strengthened.

OBJECTIVE To observe the clinical efficacy of Maitong Jun'an Decoction in treating coronary heart disease(CHD)angina of qi deficiency and blood stasis type,and preliminarily elucidate its possible mechanism of action through transcriptomics meth-ods.METHODS A total of 140 patients with CHD angina of qi deficiency and blood stasis type were included and randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group,with 70 cases in each group.During the treatment period,3 patients in the control group dropped out.The control group received basic Western medicine treatment for secondary prevention of CHD,while the treatment group received Maitong Jun'an Decoction in addition to the treatment in the control group.The treatment period for both groups was 8 weeks.Before and after treatment,the patients in both groups were evaluated for the TCM syndrome score,Canadian Cardiovascular Society(CCS)angina grading,Seattle angina questionnaire(SAQ)score,self-rating anxiety scale(SAS),self-rating depression scale(SDS)score,and adverse reactions.The peripheral blood of 9 patients before and after treatment was selected for transcriptomic sequencing based on the principle of gender,age,and disease duration matching.RESULTS After treatment,the TCM syndrome scores and total scores of the 2 groups were significantly reduced(P<0.01).The treatment group was better than the control group in improving chest pain,chest tightness,shortness of breath,fatigue and total score(P<0.05,P<0.01);the overall improvement rate of CCS angina grading in the treatment group was better than that in the control group(P<0.05);the SAQ,SAS and SDS scores of the 2 groups were significantly reduced before and after treatment(P<0.01),and the SAQ score of the treatment group was improved better than that of the control group(P<0.05,P<0.01).The transcriptomics results showed that there were 862 significantly different mR-NAs before and after treatment,including 509 up-regulated and 353 down-regulated.GO analysis showed that there were 666 biologi-cal processes in the differentially expressed mRNAs,mainly including viral gene expression,translation initiation,RNA catabolism,etc.There were 112 cell components,mainly including focal adhesion,ribosome subunit,nuclear spot,etc.There were 94 molecular functions,mainly including double-stranded RNA binding,cadherin binding,transcription co-regulatory factor activity,etc.KEGG analysis showed that the differentially expressed mRNAs enriched in 20 signaling pathways,mainly including glycerophospholipid me-tabolism pathway,AMPK signaling pathway,ribosome pathway,etc.CONCLUSION Maitong Jun'an Decoction can improve clini-cal symptoms in patients with CHD angina of qi deficiency and blood stasis type.Its mechanism of action is multi-target and multi pathway,mainly related to the regulation of glycerophospholipid metabolism pathway,AMPK signaling pathway,ribosome pathway.
