OBJECTIVE: Understand the main types and characteristics of inhaled allergens in allergic rhinitis patients in Urumqi, Xinjiang, and provide theoretical basis for diagnosis, treatment, prevention of local allergic rhinitis and epidemiological investigation. METHOD: Inhaled allergen detecting on suspected patients with allergic rhinitis in clinic by the allergopharma skin prick test. Group the skin prick test positive patients of 340 samples according to their nationality, age and gender, then compare the inhaled allergen differences between them. RESULT: The total positive rate with allergic rhinitis prick test in 340 cases is 94.7%, of which the highest proportion is Artemisia (66.2%), followed by Chenopodium album (51.2%), poplar (42.6%), Ulmus (40.9%), Liu (33.8%), Timothy (27.6%), dust mite (21.2%), house dust mite (17.9%), ragweed (15.9%), dog (11.2%), cat (10.6%), cockroach (8.5%), Alternaria (5.6%) and Candida albicans (3.5%). The sensitivity of poplar, willow, Timothy and Alternaria of the minority group is higher than the Han group (P<0.05). The allergen positive rate difference among different age group has statistical significance (Χ2=59.076, P<0.01). CONCLUSION Artemisia, Chenopodiaceae, poplar and elm are the main allergens in Urumqi area. There is a difference in allergen sensitivity between Minority and Han nationality patients. There is no statistical significance on inhaled allergen positive rate between different genders. Specific allergens can provide basis for the prevention and control of allergic diseases in Urumqi area.

Objective To understand the various factors affecting hospital knowledge team performance.Methods Constructing the theoretical model of factors affecting team performance based on the WSR,adopting a self-designed scale to carry out questionnaire investigation,and using the method of statistical analysis to validate the rationality of the model. Results Hospital knowledge team performance is influenced by physical factors (4.38 ),Shi-Li factors (4.5 1 ),and Ren-Li factors (4.59),which Ren-Li factors influence is greater.Conclusion The WSR methodology provides a convenient and efficient way for understanding the determinants of hospital knowledge team performance.

Objective To establish the performance structure model of hospital knowledge team. Methods Proposing the hypothesized model on the basis of theoretical research,adopting a self-designed scale to carry out questionnaire investigation,using the method of statistical analysis to validate the fitting degree of the model.Results The performance structure of hospital knowledge team is composed of six dimensions,including patient service,quality management,medical quality,work efficiency,team growth,and team members feeling.The six dimensions can explain 76.92% of the variance.Conclusion With its special of hospital knowledge team performance,the performance structure is different from the existing research results.

Objective:To study the drug distribution in the local tissues and lymph nodes treated with targeting and continuous interstitial chemotherapy for the oral squamous cell carcinoma before operation. Methods:8 patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma were treated by implanting the sustain-released cisplatin around and into the primary lesion. Drug distribution in tissue were studied by the graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry. Results:The drug concentration in the center of the tumor,1 cm and 2 cm from the tumor fringe were (34.877 1?15.720 8),(20.690 0 ?15.688 6) and (6.635 7?3.862 3) ?g/g, respectively. The drug concentration within lymph nodes of the sub-mental and submandibular area, deep cervical lymph nodes for the upper,middle and lower were(2.991 4?3.055 7),(4.026 0 ?3.692 0), (7.192 0 ? 8.958 7) and (5.028 5?3.484 3)?g/g, respectively. Conclusion:Targeting and continuous interstitial chemotherapy for the oral squamous cell carcinoma by implanting sustain-released cisplatin can increase drug concentration in the local tissues and the lymph nodes, to attain good efficacy of targeting chemotherapy.

Objective: To explore the application value of ablation catheter for pacemaker atrial lead restoration in relevant patients.
Methods: A total of 6 patients with atrial lead dislodgement after pacemaker implantation were selected for our study. The atrial lead restoration was conducted by using ablation catheter via femoral vein pathway.
Results: The average operational time was (15.0 ± 3.7) min which was obviously less than traditional operational time. The position of electrode restoration was ideal with well immobilization.
Conclusion: Ablation catheter is feasible for arial lead restoration in patients with atrial lead dislodgement after pacemaker implantation.

Objective To explore the role and the possible molecular mechanisms of natural anti-oxLDL IgM monoclonal antibody played and involved in pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. Methods Natural anti-oxLDL IgM monoclonal antibody 3A6 was generated by using standard hybridoma production techniques. Influence of 3A6 on formation of foam cells was observed by Oil Red O staining and affinity of Na125I-conjugated oxLDL on the naive and LPS-activated macrophages. After LPS stimulation on macrophages, anti-TLR4 neutralizing mAb, p38MAPK specific inhibitor SB203580, NF-kB specific inhibitor PDTC or RNAi targeting Fcα/μ receptor (Fcamr) were applied, respectively. Results Natural anti-oxLDL IgM monoclonal antibody 3 A6 were found specifically inhibit the binding of CuoxLDL to naive macrophages but not the binding of CuoxLDL to LPS-activated macrophages. It also promoted the formation of CuoxLDL-mediated foam macrophages. 3A6 F(ab')2 or pre-incubation with un-related IgM inhibited the binding of 3A6/CuoxLDL complex to LPS-activated macrophages. LPS up-regulated the expression of Fcamr in macrophages in a dose- and time-dependent manner, which was attenuated by treatment with anti-TLR4. LPS induced the phosphorylation of p38MAPK and translocation of NF-kB p65, contributing to the up-regulated expression of Fcα/μ receptor in macrophages. Conclusions Natural anti-oxLDL IgM monoclonal antibody 3A6 specifically inhibited the binding of CuoxLDL to naive macrophages in vitro. However, LPS, through the Toll-like receptor (TLR)4 receptor, activated the p38MAPK and NF-kB pathways and up-regulated the expression of Fcα/μ receptor in macrophages, which promoted the binding of 3A6/CuoxLDL complex to macrophages through binding with Fc fragments and the formation of foam macrophages. Therefore, our findings provide a new explanation why bacterial infection deteriorates the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of combined pegylated liposomaldoxorubicin (PLD) and carboplatin in the treatment of patients with recurrent epithelial ovarian cancer.Methods We retrospectively reviewed 67 patients with recurrent epithelial ovarian cancer or primaryperitoneal adenocarcinoma (8 eases) who were treated with combined PLD and earboplatin. The responserate, survival and toxicity were evaluated. The mean age for 67 patients was 52.1 (39-76) years. All ofthem received eytoreductive surgery followed by platinum-based chemotherapy either with paclitaxel orcyclophosphamide and doxorubicin after diagnosis. Combined PLD and carboplatin was used as first orsecond-line treatment or even after multiple lines of treatment after disease recurred. Patients were treatedwith PLD at 35-40 mg/m2combined with carboplatin at an area under curve ( AUC ) of 5 once every 4weeks. Results Forty-nine. Patients were evaluable for response. Twenty-three (47%) patients had acomplete response, 13 (27%) had a partial response, 3 (6%) had stable disease and 10 (20%) hadprogressive disease. The estimated median progression-free survival (PFS) was 8 months. The 1-year and 2-year survival rates were 73% and 55%, respectively. All of the 67 patients were evaluated for toxicity. Thetreatment was terminated in 2 patients due to allergic-like infusion reaction. Four patients who had acuteinfusion reaction with shortness of breath and tightness of chest did not terminate the treatment because nosuch reaction occurred when restarted the infusion. There were 2 patients with G2and 3 patients with G3hand-foot syndrome, 2 patients had G4stomatitis, and 8 patients had G3leukopeni,, No G4leukopenia orcardiotoxicity eceurred. Conclusion The combination of PLD and carboplatin is an active and wellotolerated regimen in the treatment of patients with recurrent epithelial ovarian cancer.
