Objective:To investigate the effect of donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) by intra-bone marrow (IBM) or intravenous (IV) on the incidence of graft-versus-host disease(GVHD) after allogeneic peripheral hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-PBSCT).Methods:Female C57BL/6 mice as recipients received total body irradiation (TBI) on day 0,followed by injection of peripheral hematopoietic stem cells from mobilized male BALB/c with granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (rhG-CSF),and DLI was performed via IV or IBM.The extent of GVHD was compared in recipients received allogeneic IBM-DLI with those received IV-DLI.The percentage of donor-derived cells and CD4~+CD25~+ regulatory T cells (Tregs) was detected by flow cytometry.14 days after DLI,the levels of IL-4 and interferon (IFN)-γ were tested by ELISA.Results:It was found that the frequency and severity of GVHD were reduced in IBM-DLI compared with that of IV-DLI (P＜0.01).7 days after transplantation,the percentage of H-2~d-positive cells was over 95% in all surviving transplanted mice;and 14 days after transplantation,the percentage of Tregs detected as CD4~+CD25~+ was significantly higher in recipients treated with IBM-DLI than those treated with IV-DLI(P＜0.01).Compared with that of the recipients in IBM-DLI group,the level of IL-4 was significantly decreased,while the level of IFN-γ were elevated in group IV-DLI (P＜0.01).Conclusion:IBM-DLI could induce the proliferation of Tregs and the Th polarizing to Th2,resulting in decreasing the incidence and alleviating severity of GVHD after allo-PBSCT.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the severity of insomnia and the curative effect in acute stage in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD). Methods The Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) was used to evaluate and group the severity of insomnia in the 57 patients with MDD. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) was used to assess sleep quality. The 24－item Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD24) was used to evaluate depressive symptoms, and the effect of acute stage (4～6 weeks) was evaluated with its reduction rate. The difference of curative effect was compared among patients with different insomnia levels. Results There was a significantly different recovery rate in acute stage in 3 groups of patients with mild, moderate and severe insomnia ( X2=22.34,P＜0.01). The severity of insomnia in patients with MDD (PSQI) was negatively correlated with the curative effect of acute stage (r=－0.44,P＜0.01). The total score, anxiety/somatization factor score, retardant factor score and despair factor score were significantly higher in severe insomnia group than in the moderate and mild insomnia groups after acute treatment (P＜0.01). Conclusion The severity of insomnia in patients with MDD can predict the curative effect in acute stage. The depressive patients with severe insomnia have residual anxiety/somatization, retardant, feelings of despair and other symptoms more obvious than mild and moderate insomnia patients after acute treatment.

Objective:To investigate the antibacterial effect of iodophor on Staphylococcus aureus biofilm (BBF).Methods:Staphylococcus aureus were cultured in vitro and 480 pieces of titanium alloy plates were selected. On the surface of titanium plates, in vitro models of Staphylococcus aureus biofilms were established at days 7, 14, 21 and 28 respectively with 120 pieces of titanium plates at each time points. The biofilms at each time point were assigned to no iodophor immersion (PBS group), 5 g/L iodophor immersion for 5 minutes (5-min group) and 5 g/L iodophor immersion for 10 minutes (10-min group), according to the random number table method. FITC-ConA, propidium iodide (PI) and SYT09 were used to dye Staphylococcus aureus in PBS group. After dyeing, confocal laser scanning microscopy and scanning electron microscopy were used to observe the morphological structure of bacterial biofilms, and the Colony forming unit (CFU) was counted by the viable count method. In the other two groups, PI and SYT09 were applied to dye Staphylococcus aureus, and then confocal laser scanning microscopy and scanning electron microscopy were used to observe the changes of biofilms and bacterial viability after iodophor immersion. The antibacterial effect of iodophor was evaluated by the viable count method.Results:After dyeing Staphylococcus aureus with FITC-ConA and PI in PBS group, confocal laser scanning microscopy showed that the extracellular polymers of the bacteria increased gradually with the extension of culture time. The space structure of biofilm was gradually mature, changed significantly at day 21 and became mature at day 28. After staining Staphylococcus aureus with PI and SYT09 in PBS group, confocal laser scanning microscopy showed that the number of bacteria increased, and had a mountain-like shape. Scanning electron microscopy showed that the number of bacterial extracellular polymers increased gradually with the extension of culture time and a structured microenvironment was formed and gradually matured. In 5-min and 10-min groups, all bacteria were killed at days 7 and 14 [0(0, 0)CFU/ml], the antibacterial effect was weakened at 21 days, but the antibacterial effect of iodophor immersion in 10-min group [100 (100, 125)CFU/ml] was better than that in 5-min group [300 (275, 425)CFU/ml] ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in iodophor immersion in 5-min group [500 (375, 700)CFU/ml] and 10-min group [250 (175, 400)CFU/ml] at 28 days ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The maturation of biofilm is the overall maturation of bacteria and bacterial extracellular polymers and the formation of a spatialized microenvironment. Bounded by the 21st day, biofilms are divided into young biofilms and mature biofilms. The main difference between them lies in the maturation of extracellular polymers and microenvironment. For the bacterial biofilm with culture time less than 21 days, the antibacterial effect of the iodophor immersion for 10 min is better than that of 5 min. However, for the bacterial biofilm with culture time greater than 21 days, there is no significant difference in the antibacterial effect of the bacterial biofilm of prolonged iodophor immersion time.

Background: Postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) is the most common complication of acute herpes zoster. The treatment of PHN remains a challenge for clinical pain management. Despite the effectiveness of anticonvulsants, antidepressants, and lidocaine patches in reducing PHN, many patients still face intractable pain disorders.In this randomized controlled study, we evaluated whether hydromorphone through intravenous patient-controlled analgesia (IV PCA) was effective in relieving PHN. Methods: Patients with PHN were randomly divided into two groups, one group received oral pregabalin with IV normal saline, another group received oral pregabalin with additional IV PCA hydromorphone for two weeks. Efficacy was evaluated at 1, 4, and 12 weeks after the end of the treatments. Results: Two hundred and one patients were followed up for 12 weeks. After treatment, numerical rating scale (NRS) score of patients in the hydromorphone group was significantly lower than that of the control group, and the difference of NRS scores between the two groups was statistically significant at 4 and 12 weeks after treatment. The frequency of breakthrough pain in the hydromorphone group was significantly lower than that in the control group 1 and 4 weeks after treatment.After treatment, the quality of sleep in the hydromorphone group was significantly improved compared with the control group. The most common adverse reactions in the hydromorphone group were dizziness and nausea, with no significant respiratory depression. Conclusions IV PCA hydromorphone combined with oral pregabalin provides superior pain relief in patients with PHN, which is worthy of clinical application and promotion.
