One of the most important characteristics of adult liver is its regenerative ability to maintain its original mass and function after injury. With remarkable self-replication ability, hepatocytes play a critical role in liver regeneration. When there is a restriction in the proliferation capacity and/ or a massive loss of mature hepatocytes,other cells in liver can contribute to liver regeneration in different ways. Deep study on the effects and mechanisms of various hepatic cells’contribution to liver regeneration is helpful for increasing the understanding about liver regeneration and providing new insights for diagnosis and management of various advanced liver diseases.

Objective To investigate the molecular characteristics of human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) patients receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART) in Guizhou Province. Methods Using a convenience sampling strategy, 8 583 samples were collected in Guizhou and an investigation was conducted including face-to-face questionnaire interview and HIV testing. Results 1 511 cases failed in HIV suppression (viral load, VL>1 000 copies/ml). 1 410 cases (93.31%) were successfully genotyped with HIV pol gene, among which 51.42% were genotyped as CRF01_AE, 26.67% as CRF07_BC and 16.1% as CRF08_BC. Conclusion The subtype changes caused by HIV gene mutation should precede the changes of main transmission routes of HIV through the analysis in recent years. Timely monitoring the changes of HIV subtypes can be one of the main bases for the prevention and control of AIDS.

Background and Objectives: Stroke is the most common neurological disease in China and regulation
of lipid levels is important for secondary prevention. This study aimed to investigate the practice of
lipid lowering agents immediately after and one month following ischemic stroke in China, and to
determine the factors affecting the practice. Methods: A total of 857 patients with acute ischemic
stroke were enrolled from 11 hospitals in the Qingdao area, Northern China. Data pertaining to the
patients’ demographic, clinical data, and treatment before and after the stroke were recorded. Univariate
and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to determine the factors associated with the
treatment at two time points: at the acute stage and at one month follow-up. Results: The frequency
of lipid lowering therapy was 50.3% (431/857) at acute stage and 41.5% (306/738) at one month.
Lipid lowering therapy at acute stage was independently and positively associated with a history of
hyperlipidemia((P=0.002, OR (95%CI): 3.784 (1.610-8.898)) and excess alcohol consumption (P=0.005,
OR (95%CI): 1.928 (1.214-3.062)), partial anterior circulation infarct classifi cation (P=0.000, OR
(95%CI): 1.974 (1.370-2.767)), and low-density lipoprotein levels ((P=0.000, OR (95%CI): 1.426
(1.170-1.739)). Lipid lowering therapy at one month follow-up was independently and positively
associated with lipid lowering therapy at acute stage ((P=0.000, OR (95%CI): 18.275 (11.476-
29.101)), and negatively with the Modifi ed Rankin Scale ≥4 at follow-up ((P=0.030, OR (95%CI):
0.568 (0.341-0.948)).
Conclusions: Lipid lowering therapy was found to be used in about half of patients during acute and
early secondary prevention of ischemic stroke in the Qingdao area of Northern China. There should
be more education efforts to the health care professionals and public to increase its use.

To determine the residue of 14 sulfonamides in milk, a high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry ( HPLC-MS/MS ) method with on-line soild phase extraction ( SPE ) in cation exchange mode was established. 5 g of milk was extracted with 15 mL acetonitrile. Then the extraction was evaporated by 50 ℃ nitrogen and dissolved by 1. 00 mL 0. 2% formic acid. The dissolution was enriched and purified by MS/MS cation exchange on-line SPE column on a double ternary liquid chromatography, and eluted by the mixed solution of 2% ammonia methanol and 0. 2% formic acid (50:50, V/V). The compounds were separated by an octadecyl silica bonded column and determined by the tandem mass spectrometry. The results showed that the linearity of 14 sulfonamides was good in the range of 0 . 1–10 μg/kg ( r≥0 . 9995 ) .
The LOD of the method was 0. 05 μg/kg, while the LOQ was 0. 1 μg/kg. The recoveries of the 14 sulfonamides were in the range of 60 %-90 %, while the inter-batch and intra-batch RSDs were all lower than 10%. The method was proved to be more convenient, economical and stable than the traditional SPE column method.
