Objective: Our aim was to investigate the polymorphism and forensic meaning of the Y-chromosomal loci DYS390 and DYS389Ⅰ/Ⅱ in Han nationality in Liaoning Province. Methods: By amplifying these loci with polymorase chain reaction (PCR) followed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and silver staining, the allele frequencies of these loci among 98 unrelated men of Han nationality were investigated. Results: Five alleles with different frequencies from 0.010 to 0.480 were detected of DYS390， and three alleles with different frequencies from 0.224 to 0.439 were detected of DYS 389Ⅰ. Locus DYS 389Ⅱ was detected in five alleles and the frequencies ranged from 0.020 to 0.367. The probability discrimination of these loci were 0.637, 0.644 and 0.723. These loci were found to generate at least 31 different haplotypes and the power of discrimination was 0.948. Conclusion: The loci DYS390 and DYS389Ⅰ/Ⅱ are very important when detect mixed samples, especially in deficiency cases of paternity test.

OBJECTIVE:To provide the basis for the formulation of the health intervention strategy for medical and health insti-tutions'pharmacists and provide reference for other related research. METHODS:A total of 180 medical and health institutions' pharmacists in Heilongjiang province were investigated and evaluated by work satisfaction MMSS scale(modified)and quality of life(SF-36)scale,and the relevant data were analyzed statistically. RESULTS:A total of 180 questionnaires were distributed and 134 valid questionnaires were collected. The effective recovery rate was 74.44%. The average score of work satisfaction degree was (3.44±0.79),which was at the middle level. The highest score was the relationship with colleagues and the lowest score was wel-fare. The physical function,the physiological function and the social function dimension of the respondents were higher thanChi-nese norm. The scores of physical pain,general health,vitality,emotional function and mental health were lower thanChinese norm,and there was statistical significance between the scores of the other dimensions andChinese norm(P<0.05),except for the physiological function and vitality dimension. Multivariate analysis showed that gender,duties,education,length of service and work satisfaction score had an effect on quality of life(P<0.05),among these factors,work satisfaction score was positively correlated with quality of life. CONCLUSIONS:The quality of life of medical and health institutions'pharmacists still needs to be improved,which is related to many influential factors,and job satisfaction is an important influential factor.

Objective To elucidate the prevalence and clinical characteristics of human metapneumovirus(hMPV)in hospital- ized children with respiratory infection.Methods A total of 452 hospitalized children with lower respiratory tract infection were observed from Aug 2004 to Jan 2005.Respiratory tract aspirates were collected from all patients within 48 hours after admis sion.The specimens were routinely tested for respiratory syncytial virus,influenza virus A and B,parainfluenza virus 1 to 3 and adenovirus by direct fluorescent assay(DFA).The 245 specimens negative by DFA were tested for hMPV by RT-PCR. PCR products of hMPV M gene from some patients were randomly selected for sequencing analysis.Results hMPV was identi- fied in 59(24.1%)of the 245 specimens tested,hMPV infection alone accounted for 13.1% of the infections in the 452 chil- dren under study,The prevalence of hMPV was higher than other respiratory viruses in winter.The mean age of hMPV-infec- ted children(n=59)was 27.7 months.There was no significant difference between age groups in terms of the prevalence of hMPV(P＞0.05).There were no statistically significant difference in demographics and clinical symptoms between hMPV in- fection and other common respiratory virus infection.Genotyping for the hMPV M gene from 23 Shanghai patients showed two distinct hMPV genotypes.Sequence analysis of these hMPV M genes showed 82.8%-100% homology to the registered se- quence in GenBank.There was no significant difference in clinical characteristics between the 2 genotypes.Conclusions hMPV plays an important pathogenic role in lower respiratory tract infection of children,hMPV prevailed in the winter of 2004.Clini- cally,hMPV infection can not be discriminated from the infection of other respiratory viruses.Clinical manifestation is similar between the two hMPV genotypes.

Objective To evaluate engraftment status of patients after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(Allo-HSCT) and prompt relapse of disease based on DNA polymorphism analysis technique.Methods Sixty-six cases were detected by DNA polymorphism analysis technique and 25 cases were monitored and analyzed dynamically during this period.Results After Allo-HSCT,48 patients obtained type of donors,but 13 patients did not; 5 patients showed mixed chimerism.Two cases of type of donors converted into mixed chimerism and 4 cases of mixed chimerism converted into type of donors after some time. The others' engraftment status did not change.Conclusion DNA polymorphism analysis technique can detect engraftment status of patients exactly, rapidly, which provides effective evidences of constitution for more clinical therapy projects.

Introduction: Tuberculosis (TB) in internal migrants is one of three threats for TB control in China. To address this threat, a project was launched in eight of the 19 districts of Shanghai in 2007 to provide transportation subsidies and living allowances for all migrant TB cases. This study aims to determine if this project contributed to improved TB control outcomes among migrants in urban Shanghai. Methods: This was a community intervention study. The data were derived from the TB Management Information System in three project districts and three non-project districts in Shanghai between 2006 and 2010. The impact of the project was estimated in a difference-in–difference (DID) analysis framework, and a multivariable binary logistic regression analysis. Results: A total of 1872 pulmonary TB (PTB) cases in internal migrants were included in the study. The treatment success rate (TSR) for migrant smear-positive cases in project districts increased from 59.9% in 2006 to 87.6% in 2010 (P < 0.001). The crude DID improvement of TSR was 18.9%. There was an increased probability of TSR in the project group before and after the project intervention period (coefficient = 1.156, odds ratio = 3.178, 95% confidence interval: 1.305–7.736, P = 0.011). Conclusion: The study showed the project could improve treatment success in migrant PTB cases. This was a short-term programme using special financial subsidies for all migrant PTB cases. It is recommended that project funds be continuously invested by governments with particular focus on the more vulnerable PTB cases among migrants.

Oxaliplatin-loaded nanostuctured lipid carriers (OP-NLC) were prepared by ultrasonic emulsification method. And its optimal prescription was selected by orthogonal design. The laser light scattering technique, zeta potential analyzer, TEM, DSC, XRD and HPLC were employed to study the physicochemical parameters of OP-NLC, which displayed in terms of particle size, zeta potential, crystalline, drug loading and encapsulation efficiency. The results showed that OP-NLC had an average diameter of (111 +/- 20) nm, zeta potential of (-27.4 +/- 13.1) mV, encapsulation efficiency of (77.4 +/- 2.5) % and drug content of (0.8 +/- 1.5) mg mL(-1). TEM, DSC and XRD indicated that OP-NLC was spherical and the drug was dispersed as nanoparticles by means of non-crystalline. The in vitro release test showed that the drug could be sustained-released from NLC in buffer solution (pH 4.5) after a burst release in initial phase.

?AIM:To establish a suitable normative reference value for electroretinogram ( ERG ) testing using electroencephalogram ( EEG) skin electrodes.?METHODS: The ERG was recorded in 51 eyes ( 30 people ) who were normal after ophthalmologic examination in our department from March to September 2015 using skin electrodes and contact lens electrodes. The recorded result was reviewed and analyzed, and all the testings were recorded by the routine program.?RESULTS: The 95% confidential interval, mean or median of values was defined in amplitudes and latencies of various responses. All the amplitudes results of skin electrodes were significantly lower than those of the contact lens electrodes and the ratio ( amplitudes of skin electrodes to those of the contact lens electrodes ) was 20% to 30%. The latencies results of skin electrodes were significantly shorter than those of contact lens electrodes and the ratio was 95% to 96%.?CONCLUSION:The EEG skin electrode used for patients with low compliance may provide valuable information of retinal function.

Multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency,also known as glutaric aciduria typeⅡ,is an autosomal recessive inherited metabolic disease. It is a mitochondrial electron transport chain and fatty acid metabolism disorder caused by a defect of electron transfer flavoprotein(ETF)or ETF dehydrogenase(ETFDH),resulting in the damage to multiple organs such as myocardia,liver,brain and skeletal muscle. The clinical diagnosis of multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency is difficult due to the lack of specific symptoms and signs of the patients. To make a definitive diagnosis,blood aminoacids and acylcarnitine profiles,urinary organic acids profiles and gene analysis are necessary. According to the response to ribo-flavin(or vitamin B2),multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency could be divided into riboflavin-responsive form and riboflavin-unresponsive form. The riboflavin-responsive form is usually observed in the late-onset cases with good outcome.The patients of riboflavin-unresponsive form usually have early-onset with severe diseases. Bezafibrate, L-carnitine,coenzyme Q10,sodium-D,L-3-hydroxybutyrate and low-fat die should be considered for the treatment. Some patients with riboflavin-unresponsive form show poor outcome.

Objective:To analyze clinical characteristics of cutaneous delayed-type hypersensitivity caused by injection of equine tetanus antitoxin (TAT) or equine anti-tetanus immunoglobulin F (ab′) 2. Methods:Clinical data were collected from 181 outpatients or inpatients with cutaneous delayed-type hypersensitivity caused by injection of equine TAT or anti-tetanus immunoglobulin from 2008 to 2020, and retrospectively analyzed.Results:Before the injection of equine TAT or anti-tetanus immunoglobulin, skin test was negative in 171 (94.47%) of the 181 patients, and the 10 (5.53%) patients with positive skin test responses received desensitization injection. Among the 181 patients, there were 118 males and 63 females aged from 11 to 68 years, with the disease duration of 1 to 7 days and alatency period of 4 to 14 days. There was no significant difference in the clinical manifestations between the patients receiving injection of TAT (130 cases) and those receiving injection of equine anti-tetanus immunoglobulin (51 cases) . Urticaria-like rashes were the main clinical manifestation, and infiltrative erythema occurred at the injection site in 12 patients, of whom 10 developed generalized urticaria all over the body. Of the 181 patients, 163 (90.06%) presented with generalized skin rashes, and 56 (30.94%) had systemic symptoms such as chest tightness, fever, etc, of whom 15 (26.79%) had a history of allergies and 6 with severe symptoms had no history of allergies. Thirty-four (18.78%) patients had single or multiple laboratory abnormalities, such as increased white blood cell counts, elevated C-reactive protein level and urinary glucose, and presence of occult blood in urine. All cases responded well to the treatment with antihistamines and glucocorticoids. The treatment duration ranged from 3 to 10 days, and the outcome was good.Conclusion:TAT-or anti-tetanus immunoglobulin-induced cutaneous delayed-type hypersensitivity may still occur in patients with a negative skin test or after desensitization treatment, and mainly manifests as urticaria-like rashes.
