OBJECTIVE To develop a rapid, sensitive and specific real-time PCR assay for the detection of WU polyomavirus.METHODS The VP2 gene of WU polyomavirus was selected as target gene.The specific primers and TaqMan probes according to the principle of the TaqMan real-time PCR were designed and synthesized,we optimized the PCR reaction,and detected 394 clinical samples.The sensitivity,specificity,reproducibility and dynamic range of the methods were determined.RESULTS The real-time PCR was established and applied successfully to detect the WU polyomavirus.The real-time PCR assay showed excellent linearity between the log of target input and CT value,demonstrating that the assay had a dynamic range of at least 8 logs between 1.0?100 and 1.0?107 copies;the coefficient of variation of intra-assay and inter-assay was less than 5%.Among these 394 specimens,3(0.76%) were positive for WU polyomavirus.CONCLUSIONS The real-time TaqMan PCR is a rapid,specific and sensitive method to detect WU polyomavirus.It can be used in screening large numbers of samples at the same time and establish the solid technological base for clinical diagnosis and epidemiology study.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of the ultrasonic technology,digital subtraction angiography(DSA) combined guide line of liver abscess drainage tube.Methods 70 patients with liver abscess received ultrasonic technology,DSA joint drainage tube after treatment.Using ultrasound technology and DSA of complementary advantages,enhancement in the operation was good,especially the liver abscess of abdominal pneumatosis was more and more room,enhancement effect was better than that of pure guided by ultrasound.Results 70 patients were all successful puncture and catheter,development was good,all 70 cases cured,without any serious complication.Conclusion Ultrasound technology,DSA joint guided puncture catheter drainage is a safe,minimally invasive treatment,has significant efficacy and important clinical value.

Immune checkpoint blockade can promote the tumor?specific cytotoxic T?lymphocyte ( CTL) response. However, only a small proportion of patients have good response to immune checkpoint blockade. It has been reported that radiotherapy combined with immune checkpoint blockade can promote antigen presentation, which further enhances the tumor?specific CTL response;moreover, the combined therapy achieves better treatment outcomes than radiotherapy alone or immune checkpoint blockade alone. The latest study has shown that radiotherapy combined with dual immune checkpoint blockade has better efficacy than radiotherapy combined with CTLA?4 blockade in patients with melanoma. Therefore, radiotherapy combined with immune checkpoint blockade will become a new approach for treating tumor. This paper reviews the research advances in the combined therapy.

A total of 130 anvolatory infertile outpatients were divided randomly into 4 groups of LE1 (letrozole 2.5 mg,n =45),LE2 (letrozole 5 mg,n =30),CC1 (clomiphene citrate 50 mg,n =35) and CC2 (clomiphene citrate 100 mg,n =20).The treatments started at day 5 of menstruation and lasted for 5 days.The size and number of ovarian follicles and thickness of endometrium of all 4 groups were measured starting from day 10 of menstruation.8 000-10 000 units of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) was injected when ovary follicles were mature.And blood estradiol (E2) was measured at the same day.Ovulation,pregnancy and adverse reaction were also monitored.The pregnancy rate was 33％ (n =15) in group LE1 and 14％ (n =5) in group CC1 with significant statistical difference (x2 =4.00,P ＜ 0.05).And there were 43 successful ovulation periods in 55 periods with an ovulation rate of 78％ in group LE1;28 successful ovulation periods in 52 periods with an ovulation rate of 54％ in group CC with significant statistical difference (X2 =4.60,P ＜0.05).E2 level (pmol/L) in the day of hCG injection in group LE1 was (774.2 ± 126.0) pmol/L and in group CC1 (963.7 ± 108.3) pmol/L,t =3.98 with significant difference (P ＜ 0.01).The number of follicle in group LE1 was 1.20 ± 0.38;CC1 2.28 ± 0.88,t =4.76 with significant difference (P ＜0.01).The thickness of endometrium in the day of hCG in LE1 was (9.6 ± 1.3) mm;CC1 (5.9 ± 1.1) mm,t =6.20 with significant difference (P ＜ 0.01).No significant statistical differences existed between LE1 and LE2,CC1 and CC2 in pregnancy rate,successful ovulation,number of mature follicles,E2 level and thickness of endometrium at the day of hCG injection.The outcomes of 36 pregnancies were 32 full-term deliveries with neonatal health,2 early abortions and 2 prematures.Mild ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) had a low occurrence rate.

Circadian rhythms are endogenous 24 h variations found in virtually all physiological processes and behaviors, which are controlled by the transcriptional translational oscillator that consists of a series of core clock genes (bmal1, clock, cry and per) and clock controlled genes (rev-erbα, rorα, dbp, tef and hlf).Clock genes exist in immune organs, tissues and cells, leading to the immune cell function (migration and chemotaxis, phagocytosis, cytotoxicity and so on) and a variety of immune parameters (factor level of circulating immune cells and subsets of the relative and absolute number of cells) showing circadian rhythm changes, and playing an important role in maintaining immune homeostasis.In addition, some immune related diseases are closely correlated with circadian rhythms abnormalities.This paper will focus on the effect of circadian rhythms on immune functions and their roles in some immune related diseases.

Objective To discuss the clinical value of f iberoptic ductoscopy in the diagnosis and treatment of breast diseases. Methods A total of 3 000 patients with mastalgia, breast mass or ni pple discharge received examinations by fiberoptic ductoscopy. Cytological exami nations were carried out in part of the patients after ductoscopy. Resu lts Of the 3 000 cases, there were 608 cases of intraductal space-occup ying lesions, 1 709 cases of obstructive galactophoritis, 350 cases of galactost asia, 24 cases of acute galactophoritis, 282 cases of simple mammarv duct ectasi a, and 27 cases of normal mammary ducts. Of 1 167 patients with nipple discharge , intraductal space-occupying lesions were clarified by ductoscopy in 585 cases (50%). Surgery was performed in 643 cases while intraductal interventional thera py was adopted in 2 365 cases. Conclusions Fiberoptic ductosco py may be used for the diagnosis and treatment of various breast diseases, not c onfined to nipple discharge.

Objective To establish the quality control method for Youqing Granules. Methods Qualitation discrimination of Rhizoma Cyperi and Raidix Paeoniae in this formula was identified by TLC. Quantitive analysis of Astragaloside A which is the effective element of the formula was adopted by RP-HPLC-ELSD. Result The specks in TLC were clear and easy to discriminate. The precision and reproducibility of the RP-HPLC-ELSD method were fine. In 1.032～5.16 ?g, the content of Astragaloside A had good linear relationship. The average recovery rate of sample was 99.0516 %, and RSD=1.05%. Conclusion The quality standard established on this study can control the quality of the products, the method is viable.
