Cytomegalovirus infection is one of the most common diseases of newborn viral infection,can cause neurological,digestive,respiratory and blood system damage.In addition to the diagnosis of jaundice,impairment and other clinical manifestations,this disease's diagnosis mainly depend on laboratory examination.Therefore,the application of a sensitive and specific method for early diagnosis of congenital cytomegalovirus(CCMV) infection is particularly important advances in clinical detection method and the research of CCMV infection is reviewed.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a common liver disease in clinical practice and has a complex pathogenesis. At present, the "two- or three-hit" theory is still widely acknowledged as the major pathogenesis of NAFLD. However, in recent years, the role of liver immunological inflammation in the development and progression of NAFLD has been taken more and more seriously. This article elaborates on the mechanism of liver immunological inflammation in the development and progression of NAFLD from the perspective of liver immunological inflammation.

Objective:To elucidate the factors influencing the differences in the survival rates of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) patients between the rural and urban regions in China. Methods:A total of 36,723 ESCC patients derived from the clinical data-bases containing 500,000 esophageal and gastric cardia carcinoma cases (1973-2015) of the Henan Key Laboratory for Esophageal Can-cer Research of the First Affiliated Hospital, Zhengzhou University, were analyzed. Of these patients, 33,625 were from the rural re-gions (91.6%), comprising 20,906 male patients with an average age of 58.98 ± 8.71 years and 12,719 females with an average age of 59.59 ± 8.53 years. The remaining 3,098 were from the urban regions and composed of 2,089 male patients with an average age of 60.84±9.10 years and 1,009 females with an average age of 62.46 ± 9.14 years. All the patients underwent radical esophagectomy, de-tailed histopathological diagnosis, and TNM staging. Chi square test, Kaplan-Meier, Log-rank, and Cox proportional hazards regression model were used to analyze the differences between ESCC patients from rural regions and those from urban regions and among the risk factors in prognosis. Results:Kaplan-Meier and Log-rank analysis results showed that the ESCC patients from the rural regions had significantly higher overall survival than the urban patients (χ2=12.971, P=0.000). Further analysis showed that rural patients≥50 years old and diagnosed with stage IIa and IIb (middle stage) ESCC had higher survival rates than urban patients in males and females (male:χ2=16.188, P<0.001;female:χ2=5.019, P=0.025). However, the survival rates of rural and urban patients with stage 0,Ⅰa,Ⅰb (early stage) and Ⅲa, Ⅲc, and Ⅳ (late stage) were similar (P>0.05). The results of Cox proportional hazards regression model analysis showed that age, gender, and TNM stages were independent risk factors for rural and urban ESCC patients. When the rural and urban ESCC patients were both considered, the Cox proportional hazards regression model analysis results showed that male ESCC patients≥50 years old, urban residence, and TNM stages were independent risk factors. Conclusion:Rural ESCC patients have significantly high-er overall survival than urban patients. Male, age of≥50 years old, urban residence, and TNM stages were independent risk factors for ESCC patient survival.

Objective: To observe the effects of blueberry and nuclear expression of transcription factor-кb (NF-кb) p65 in an experimental rat model of liver fibrosis. Methods: Forty-five Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into isotonic saline control group (A); model group (B); blueberry juice prevention group (C, 15 g/kg); dan-shao-hua-xian capsule prevention group (D, 1 g/kg); and blueberry juice + dan-shao-hua-xian capsule prevention group (E). Rat liver fibrosis model was established by covalent compound carbon tetrachloride (CCl₄). Each prevention group was given the corresponding dose of blueberry juice or (and) dan-shao-hua-xian capsule, and the rats were sacrificed after 8 weeks. The degree of liver fibrosis was evaluated by hematoxylin and eosin stain. A liver tissue of NF-κBp65 was detected by immunohistochemical method. The NF-κBp65 protein expression of liver tissue and transforming growth factor (TGF) β1 was detected by Western blot. Data of multiple groups were compared by one-way analysis of variance, and rank sum test. Results: Immunohistochemistry detected that TGFβ1 protein was mainly expressed in mesenchymal origin of hepatic stellate cells. The expression level of group A (3.75 ± 1.67) was low, while those of group B (9.00 ± 2.07), C (7.33 ± 1.00), D (6.00 ± 1.51), and E (3.5 ± 1.41) were high. However, the expression level of TGF-β1 protein in hepatic tissues of group B was significantly higher than that of group C, D and E [group E: 3.5 ± 1.41, F = 18.350, P < 0.05]. In addition, group D was higher than group E (P < 0.05). The expression of NF- kappa Bp65 protein was very complex, and the expression patterns in different groups were different (Statistical calculation of experimental data were based on expression of liver cells). Compared with group B (4.37 ± 2.13), the relative expression levels of NF-κBp65 protein in-group A (0.46 ± 0.25), group C (2.76 ± 1.01), group D (2.13 ± 1.51), group E (1.88 ± 0.99) were significantly decreased (F = 27.490, P < 0.05), and the expression trend was consistent with TGFβ1 protein. Western blot detected NF-κBp65 protein in liver tissues of rats. Compared with group A, levels in groups B, C, D and E were significantly increased (F = 96.983, P < 0.05), and groups C, D and E were significantly lower. The E group was significantly lower than the C group (F = 96.983, P < 0.05), and the degree of hepatic fibrosis was lower in each prevention group than in the B group (T = 24.1, P < 0.05). Conclusion Blueberries have preventive effect on CCl4-induced hepatic fibrosis in rats, and its preventive mechanism may inhibit the expression and activation of NF-κBp65 in hepatocytes, thereby reducing TGFβ1- mediated production or activation.

OBJECTIVETo determine the risk factor of HCC in Guizhou.

METHODSA group case-control study design was conducted between 762 cases and 798 controls in Guizhou province. The main related-factors were analyzed with unconditional logistic regression model and evaluated by odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI).

RESULTSThere are significant differences between cases and controls in regarding to cigarette smoking 210 (27.6%),non-alcoholic fatty liver disease 336 (44.1%), alcoholic liver disease 245 (32.2%), family history of HCC 141 (16.5%), alcohol consumption 300 (39.4%), HBV infection 436 (57.2%), pickled food 290 (38.1%), and economic status 5 years ago 420 (55.1%) in cases,and cigarette smoking 116 (14.5%),non-alcoholic fatty liver disease 160 (20.1%), alcoholic liver disease 101 (12.7%), family history of HCC 40 (5.0%), alcohol consumption 180 (22.6%), HBV infection 82 (10.3%), pickled food 225 (28.2%), and economic status 5 years ago 647 (81.1%) in controls, with OR of each variable was 3.520, 2.464, 4.330, 2.219, 2.451, 19.245, 6.212, 0.174 respectively, P less than 0.01.

CONCLUSIONHBV infection and pickled food were the most common risks for HCC in Guizhou. Alcohol consumption excessively and cigarette smoking may increase the risk too.

Objective:To investigate the clinical pathological and epidemiological characteristics of primary esophageal malignant melanoma (PMME).Methods:The clinical pathology data of 180 PMME patients in the esophageal cancer database of the key laboratory of esophageal cancer research in Henan Province from 1973 to 2016 were collected, of which 136 were male, aged (58.5±9.0) years, 44 were female, aged (56.7±12.2) years. Kaplan-Meier and Log rank test were used for survival analysis, Cox regression scale model was used for risk factor analysis.Results:The incidence of PMME is 0.036% (180/500, 000), mostly were male (about 3∶1 for men: female). The common sites of PMME were the lower part of the esophagus (48.9%, 85/174), followed by the middle section of the esophagus (46.0%, 80/174) and the upper part of the esophagus (5.2%, 9/174). No black particles were seen in the PMME cells of 3 patients under microscope, and strong positive expressions of Melan-A and HMB453 were observed in these 3 patients by immunohistochemical results. Of the 129 patients who had a routine preoperative esophageal biopsy, 69 were undiagnosed with PMME (53.5%). The medium survival time of the whole group was 7.9 months, and the survival rates of 1, 2, 3, 5 years were 25.0%, 7.9%, 6.6% and 1.3%, respectively. The univariate analysis showed that N, M, TNM phase and radiotherapy were related to the overall survival of patients ( P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that TNM phase and radiotherapy were the independent risk factors for overall survival of patients ( P<0.05). Conclusions:PMME is more common in men, the common site of the disease is the lower part of the esophagus. The preoperatively missed diagnosis rate of Chinese PMME is high. TNM phase and radiotherapy are the independent risk factors for overall survival of patients.
