In this paper, the antigens of both Vibrio cholerae on 55 strains of El Tor and on 28 strains obtained with genetical method were studied by ELISA method using 12 strains of McAb against Vibrio cholerae (VCOMcAb). The results indicated that the 55 strains of Vibrio cholerae El Tor were expressed 11(A-K) of the recognized antigenic determinants, and fell into XⅧ(Ⅰ-XⅧ) distinct McAb reactivity types or groups, and the 28 varients of Vibrio cholerae from genetical method were expressed 9 (A-Ⅰ) of the recognized antigenic determinants, and fell into Ⅹ (Ⅰ-Ⅹ) distinct McAb reactivity types or groups. From those VCOMcAbs, the “F3” could recognize all 55 strains of Vibrio cholerae El Tor, indicating it has specificity; other 11 strains of VCOMcAb have a variety of reactivity to antigens on the 55 strains of Vibrio cholerae El Tor in both Inaba and Ogawa and their percentages of reactivity are different. This shows that these strains may have subtypes or subgroups.

Objective? To explore the cognition and attitude towards palliative care of family members among elderly chronic diseases patients and to analyze its influencing factors. Methods? From October 2017 to April 2018, we selected 180 family members of elderly chronic diseases patients at Peking Union Medical College Hospital as subjects by convenience sampling. All of them were investigated with the self-designed cognition and attitude towards palliative care questionnaire. The simple correlation was used to analyze the influencing factors of cognition and attitude towards palliative care of family members among elderly chronic diseases patients. Results? A total of 166 valid questionnaires were collected. There were 85 (51.2%) family members of elderly chronic diseases patients understanding palliative care, 133 (80.1%) of them agreeing with implementing palliative care. The reasons of supporting palliative care included that relieving the pain on the deathbed, patients had the right to choose, long-term torment of disease. There were statistical differences in the cognition and attitude towards palliative care among family members with different ages, education levels, occupations, incomes and patients' ages. Conclusions? Family members of elderly chronic diseases patients have insufficient understanding of palliative care with a high approval rate. The higher the approval rates, education levels and ages of family members are, they agree more with palliative care.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for the identification and proces sing end-point determination of raw Morus alba and its processed products (honey-processed M. alba ). METHODS :UPLC method was adopted. The determination was performed on Waters BEH Shield RP C 18 column with mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile- 0.1% phosphoric acid solution (gradient elution ) at the flow rate of 0.30 mL/min. The column temperature was set at 30 ℃. The program wavelengths were set at 280 nm(0-4 min) and 320 nm(4-35 min). Similarity Evaluation System for Chromatogram Fingerprint of TCM (2012 edition)was used to establish UPLC fingerprint and carry out similarity evaluation of 13 batches of M. alba and honey-processed M. alba . The chromatographic peaks were identified with reference substance fingerprint. The colorimetric value (L,a,b) of 13 batches of M. alba and honey-processed M. alba powder were determined ,and average total colorimetric value (E)was calculated. OPLS-DA and cluster analysis were adopted to analyze the differences in fingerprints and colorimetric values of M. alba before and after processing. At the same time ,the dynamic change rule of fingerprint and colorimetric value of honey-processed M. alba at different processing time points were analyzed to determine the processing end-point. RESULTS :There were obvious differences in fingerprints before and after processing ,and the similarity of 13 batches of M. alba and honey-processed M. alba were all higher than 0.9. Totally 21 common peaks were calibrated for M. alba ,and 23 common peaks for honey-processed M. alba ;peak 1 and peak 2 were newly produced compounds of honey-processed M. alba . Peak 2,peak 7,peak 14 and peak 19 were identified as 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, mulberry glucoside A ,oxidized resveratrol ,mulberry flavonoids G. Results of OPLS-DA showed that the peak area-sample quantity ratio of peak 1,peak 2,peak 18,peak 20 and the chromaticity values (L,a,b)were the most important factors affecting the difference of raw and processed products of M. alba . When the E ranged 75.84-80.88 as the processing end-point of honey-processed M. alba ,the processing time was determined as 22-34 min. CONCLUSIONS : The established UPLC fingerprint and colorimetric value determination method can be used to identify the raw and processed products of M. alba as well as determine the processing end-point of honey-processed M. alba .

To observe the efficacy and safety of apatinib in the treatment of advanced bone and soft tissue sarcoma, and to analyze the possible related factors affecting the progression-free survival (PFS) of patients. Methods: Twenty-one patients with ad-vanced bone and soft tissue sarcoma admitted to the Department of Orthopaedics, Yunnan Cancer Hospital from June 2017 to Sep-tember 2018, were treated with apatinib tablets. The main efficacy index was progression free survival (PFS), and the secondary effica-cy index was overall survival (OS). Clinical efficacy was evaluated according to response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) 1.1, and overall response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), and safety were olserved according to the National Cancer Institute (NCI) 4.0 standard. Results: All of the 21 patients were followed up. At the last follow-up time point, March 31st, 2019, there were no CR, 2 patients (9.5%) with PR, 7 patients with SD (33.3%), and 12 patients with PD (57.1%). The ORR was 9.5%, the DCR was 42.8%, the medi-an PFS was 8 months, and the median OS was 14 months. The patient's gender, age, ECOG score, tissue source, surgery, or chemother-apy had no statistically significant effect on PFS (P>0.05). Only the history of radiotherapy before taking apatinib was a factor for pa-tients with PFS. The effect was statistically significant (P<0.05), and patients with a history of radiotherapy had a lower PFS than pa-tients without a history of radiotherapy. The adverse reactions of gradeⅢand above had hand-foot syndrome (14.3%), pneumotho-rax (14.3%) and anemia (4.8%). Conclusions: Apatinib has a certain effect for advanced bone and soft tissue sarcoma. The adverse re-actions are generally predictable, controllable and reversible. Apatinib can be a choice for patients with advanced bone and soft tissue sarcoma with good treatment adherence and no other treatment options.
