Objective To understand the distribution of clinical departments visited by patients with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody associated small vessel vasculitis (ANCA-SVV) to improve physicians' awareness and recognition of its clinical manifestations.Methods Literatures of ANCA-SVV published in Chinese during 1991 to 2001 were retrieved from the compact disks of China Biomedical Literatures.Data from retrieval were analyzed by the clinical departments where the authors worked and the number of patients visited there.Patients with ANCA-SVV hospitalized in China Japan Friendship Hospital during 1997 to May 2002 were analyzed based on the departments they visited and the interval between illness onset to diagnosis established.Results Totally,44 papers about ANCA-SVV published in Chinese during the past 10 years,including 24 case reports,8 short articles and 12 original articles,were retrieved.18 of them were reported by nephrologists with 128 cases,11 by rheumatologists with 46 cases,7 by respiratory physicians with 34 cases,and others of case reports.There were 31 patients with ANCA-SVV hospitalized in China Japan Friendship Hospital during the past five years,11 of them stayed at department of nephrology,8 at department of rheumatology,4 at department of respiratory diseases,3 at department of gerontology,and 2 at department of traditional Chinese medicine.Conclusions Patients with ANCA-SVV,a systematic disease involving multiple organs,could visit varied clinical departments of hospital,and majority of them visited the department of nephrology and then the departments of rheumatology,respiratory diseases and gerontology.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the roles of otolith organs in the occurrence and recurrence of primary benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) by vestibular evoked myogenic potential (VEMP) test. METHOD: We enrolled 17 recurrent primary BPPV patients and 42 non-recurrent primary BPPV patients between September 2014 and November 2014. All patients underwent VEMP tests, including cervical vestibular evoked myogenic potential (cVEMP and ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potential (oVEMP) tests. The abnormal case was defined as non-elicitation or asymmetry rate between bilateral sides is larger than 29%. RESULT: Significant difference was found in abnormal rate between cVEMP and oVEMP (P < 0.05 ) in BPPV patients. The abnormal rate of oVEMP was higher than that of cVEMP. Significant difference was found in abnormal rate in oVEMP test between recurrent and non-recurrent groups (P < 0.01) but not in cVEMP( P > 0.05). No significant difference was found in sex and age between recurrent and non-recurrent groups (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION The impairment of otolith organs, especially the utricle, is related to primary BPPV. Dysfunction of utricle may play a role in recurrence of BPPV. Recurrence of BPPV is not correlated with sex and age.

In this study,a panel of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus(PRRSV),named as 8C9 and4B4,were produced by fusing SP2/0 myeloma cells and spleen cells of BALB/c mice immunized with the PRRSV (TCID50=5.5),screened by the indirect ELISA and subjected to several limiting dilutions.mAbs were then identified by biological characterization.Among the two fusion cell strains,8C9 belonged to the IgG1 subclass and 4B4 belonged to the IgG2a subclass.The titers in cell culture supernatant and abdomen liquor reached to 1:104and 1:105,respectively.The specificity test indicated that the two cells had specific reactions for the PRRSV and GP5 protein respectively,and no reaction with Classical swine fever virus (CSFV) or Swine vesicular disease virus (SVDV).The molecular weights of the heavy chain and light chain were about 45.0 kDa and 25.0 kDa,respectively.In neutralization activity tests,the results showed that the prepared mAb 4B4 can protect 50% of cells with no CPE in dilution up to 1:512,but mAB 8C9 has no neutralization activities to PRRSV.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of regional perfusion of chemotherapeutic drug in rectal cancer patients who had undergone total mesorectum excision(TME).Methods The therapeutic effects were retrospectively analyzed of 178 rectal carcinoma patients,who were admitted in the hospital from 1999 to 2006,had undergone TME,and then received chemotherapy through various routes.Among them,a catheter was placed in the left internal iliac vein,and chemotherapeutic drug was administered through it postoperatively in 90 patients.The other 88 cases served as control,and they received systemic intra-venous chemotherapy after TME.No significant difference on clinical parameters was evident between the two groups during the course of treatment.The 1,3 and 5 year local recurrence rates,metastasis rates and survival rates of the two groups were compared.Results The 1,3 and 5 year local recurrence rates in the study group were 0,2.5%(2/79) and 3.9%(3/77),respectively,while they were 1.1%(1/88),3.9%(3/77) and 8.1%(6/74),respectively in control group.There was a significant difference in the local recurrence rate between two groups(P

The bacteriophage T7 RNAP gene was amplified via PCR from -lysogen DE3, and the gene was cloned into pBABEpuro retrovial vector, a recombinant plasmid named as pT7BABEpuro was constructed and sequenced. Then the pT7BABEpuro and pVSV-G plasmids were cotransfected into GP2-293 packaging cells by liposomese, some pseudotype viruses were ingathered and transfected into IBRS-2 cell under polybrene. The IBRS-2 cell was propagated in DMEM with puromycin. The genome extraction from the cells transfected different times, the T7 RNAP gene was amplified from the genome by PCR, the mRNA of T7 RNAP protein expressed in IBRST7 cells was analyzed by RT-PCR, respectively, the results showed the T7 RNAP gene had been integrated into the chromosome of IBRS-2 cell and expressed stably at high level. To study whether T7 RNAP is of transcriptional activity in the established IBRST7 cell line, a plasmid pIERS-EGFP-ET with a reporter gene (EGFP) under control of the T7 promoter was constructed. IRES element from FMDV (for CAP-independent translation) was cloned into plasmid pET-43.1a-c(+) downstream of the T7 promoter sequence, then EGFP gene was cloned in frame downstream of the AUG codon of the FMDV IRES, resulting in the plasmid. IBRST7 cells were transfected with plasmid pIERS-EGFP-ET using lipfection, EGFP was expressed, the results showed the T7 RNAP in IBRST7 cells has transcriptional activity. IBRST7 cell line was directly transfected with linearized full-length cDNA of swine vesicular disease virus (SVDV) HK/70, infectious SVDV was efficiently recovered from the cDNA. The reverse genetic procedure is simplified to a faster, one step protocol to recover RNA virus and will be useful to understand the mechanisms of molecular pathology of RNA virus and develop effective vaccines.
