Methods : Western blotting confirmatory assay was performed on 120 positive HIV antibody samples from HIV screening laboratories in Lanxi City from 2020 to 2022. The confirmatory test results were determined according to the “National Technical Guidelines for AIDS Testing (2020 revision)” and “Diagnosis for HIV/AIDS” (WS 293-2019), and the positive rate of confirmatory test and band distribution were analyzed. Results: Among 120 positive HIV antibody screening samples, there were 100 HIV-1 antibody positive samples (83.33%) as revealed by Western blotting confirmatory assay, 6 HIV antibody negative samples (5.00%), and 14 HIV-1 indeterminate tests (11.67%). There were 72 men and 28 men tested positive for HIV-1 antibody, with a male to female ratio of 2.57∶1, and there were 88 patients at ages of 20 to 59 years (88.00%), with the highest frequency of gp160, gp120 and p24 bands (100.00%). The most common Western blotting band pattern was p24 among HIV-1 indeterminate tests (78.57%). Among all HIV-1 indeterminate Western blotting tests, 6 cases were tested positive for HIV-1 antibody (gp160+p24) and 8 cases tested negative for HIV antibody during the follow-up period. Conclusions The prevalence of HIV-1 antibody was 83.33% in 120 positive HIV antibody screening samples in Lanxi City. The three most common Western blotting band patterns were gp160, gp120 and p24. The follow-up requires to be reinforced in HIV-1 indeterminate Western blotting tests for early identification and early intervention.

Objective To investigate the effect of rocuronium on spectral entropy during induction of general anesthesia in patients of Uygur nstionality. Methods Forty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients (Uygur nationality) of both sexes, aged 20-50 yr, weighing 45-70 kg, undergoing elective surgery under general anesthesia, were divided into 2 groups ( n = 20 each): normal saline (NS) group and rocuronium group (group R). Anesthesia was induced with target-controlled infusion of propofol. The initial target plasma concentration wan net at 2 μg/ml. The concentration wan then increased by 0.5 μg/ml every 4 min until response entropy (RE) was decreased to 45 and maintained for 4 min. When the plasma concentration was equal to the effect-site concentration, iv rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg was injected in group R, while group NS received the equal volume of NS instead. Fentanyl 3 μg/kg was injected intravenously at 3 min after recuronium administration. The patients were tracheal intubated and mechanically ventilated. State entropy (SE) and RE were recorded immediately before induction (baseline, To), before rocuronium administration (T1), 2 main after rocuronium administration (T2) and at 0, 1, 2 and 3 min after intubation (T3-6). The difference between RE and SE wan calculated. Results The RE value at T3 and T4 and the difference between RE and SE at T2.5 were significantly lower in group R than in group NS ( P ＜ 0.05). Conclusion Rocuronium can decrease the RE value and degree of increase in the difference between RE and SE during induction of general anesthesia in patients of Uygur nationality, which may affect the accuracy of spectral entropy in monitoring the depth of anesthesia.

Aim To establish ICR animal model with C6 glioma stem cells, to provide the ideal model for the further study of gli-oma stem cells in brain glioma model. Methods C6 glioma stem cell was cultured in vitro by suspension,and was identified with Nestin antibody. C6 stem cells of ICR mouse glioma model were used to investigate survival state and tumor volume in mice after the operation. HE staining and CD133 immunohistochemi-cal study were adopted to investigate the postoperative pathologi-cal changes in mice. Results The expression of Nestin was 96. 01% in C6 glioma stem cells, and Nestin was highly ex-pressed in the cultured C6 glioma stem cells. Mice were inocula-ted with tumor after loss of appetite, weight, behavior and slow, sluggish reaction. Tumor volume at day 21 after modeling was (9. 77 ± 6. 58) mm3 . After HE staining, the model showed the invasive growth, tumor cell shrinkage and derangement. Immu-nohistochemical CD133 staining revealed that tumor cytoplasm color was brown. Conclusion Glioma model can be established based on glioma stem cells into a high rate of tumor, the tumor cycle is short, which can be used as an ideal model for glioma.

OBJECTIVETo discuss the effect of music in relieving pain during orthodontic treatment.

METHODSOne hundred and sixty-five cases who wore arches the first time were selected and treated. These patients were randomly divided into two groups: Music group and blank group. The music intervention was used in reducing orthodontic treatment pain, while blank group experienced no intervention measures. Visual analogue scales (VAS) were adopted to record patients' perception of pain, and Eysenck personality questionnaire (EPQ) to evaluate personality traits of all samples.

RESULTSIn 165 patients, 85.45% were effective. The music group showed significantly less pain than the blank group (P < 0.05). In music and blank group, the pain was stronger in the patients with a tendency of introversion than those with a tendency of extroversion, as well as the irritability ones than steady-minded (P < 0.05). In music group, the pain was stronger in the females than the males (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONMusic helps to relieve pain during orthodontics treatment. The effect of music to relieve the pain during orthodontics treatment for the males are better than that for the females, extroverted personality ones are superior to introversive personality ones, and the steady-minded patients are better than irritability ones.
