Abstract: Objective To collect the cases of laboratory-acquired infections (LAI) reported in literatures in China, summarize the infection routes and causes of LAI in China, in order to improve laboratory staff's understanding of its occupational health and safety risks. Methods　The cases of laboratory-acquired infection reported in domestic literatures were collected from PubMed, CNKI, Wanfang Database, CBM China Biomedical Literature Database up to April 11, 2022, retrospectively analyze the number and causes of LAI reports, the main risk factors of LAI and its harm to society, the consequences of LAI or the leakage of pathogenic microorganisms, and put forward the relevant countermeasures of biological safety. Results　A total of 22 LAI reports were collected, reviewed and integrated into 21 reports. There were 7 kinds of pathogenic microorganisms. The main pathogenic microorganisms were hantavirus (42.86%, n=9) and Brucella (33.33%, n=7). There were 122 cases and 3 deaths in the laboratory. Most of the reports came from research laboratories (66.67%, n=14). The main route of infection was inhalation of aerosol (42.86%, n=9), followed by transdermal route (38.09%, n=8). Conclusions Failure to report LAI events will increase the risk of pathogenic microorganisms spreading to people outside the laboratory and the environment through infected laboratory staff. Local health institutions and laboratories should be encouraged to report LAI cases as a powerful tool for monitoring accidental leakage of pathogenic microorganisms and further improving laboratory biosafety. The laboratory needs strong biosafety measures to protect staff's health and prevent environmental pollution caused by accidental leakage of pathogenic microorganisms.

Objective To perform thermoluminescent measurements of radial dose function and anisotropy function of a newly designed 192Ir microSelectron-HDR source, and establish evaluation methods for HDR dosimetry.Methods A polystyrene phantom with sylindrical holes in different measure positions was designed to accommodate thermo luminescent dosimeter (TLD) rods and radiation source.TLD rods with similar sensitivity were placed on a semicircle around the source center which had been precisely localized by either radiographic means or dose measurement.Dose-rates were measured at θ = 90° and r = 1-14 cm to calculate radial dose function (gL (r)), while measured along polar angles θ = 0° -165°(interval 15°) at radial distances r = 1 cm, 3 cm and 5 cm to calculate anisotropy function (F(r,θ)).All data were compared with those calculated by Monte Carlo (MC) method.The t-test was used for the statistics.Results The values of gL (r) were 1.007 -0.681 by calculation and 1.007 -0.598 by measurement with r = 1 - 14 cm(t = 0.00 - 2.89, all P > 0.05).The values of F (r,θ) were 0.631 - 1,0.660 - 1 and 0.696 - 1 by calculation, while 0.701 - 1, 0.668 - 1 and 0.629 - 1 by measurement at 1 cm, 3 cm and 5 cm with θ=0° -165°(t=0.40 -1.63, 0.02 -2.10, 0.08 -2.03, all P>0.05).Conclusions The results of radial dose function and anisotropy function measured by TLD measurement are in consistent with those calculated by MC calculations, which can be applied in treatment planning system as original input.

OBJECTIVE To provide current tendency of viral transmission by test-negative blood components changing among blood donors and to improve the safety of blood for transfusion.METHODS The test data of 1 608 816 blood donors in Beijing Red Cross Blood Center from 2001 to 2008 were analyzed.RESULTS Before voluntary blood donation,the positive rate of anti-HCV was 0.16%,that of anti-HIV was 0.005% and that of anti-TP was 0.15%.After voluntary blood donation,positive rate of these components increased,there were 0.45%,0.017% and 0.48%,respectively,but the positive rate of HBsAg and ALT was decreased.After voluntary blood donation,the positive rate of HBsAg,anti-HCV,anti-HIV and anti-TP were elevated,that of ALT was decreased in greatly.CONCLUSIONS As the increasing risk of viral transmission disease,it is more important for blood safety to screen volunteer blood donors.

Objective To examine the effects of a functional polymorphism of the monoamine oxidase A (MAOA) gene on spontaneous brain activity in healthy male adolescents.Methods Resting-state fMRI was performed on 31 healthy male adolescents with the low-activity MAOA genotype (MAOA-L) and 25 healthy male adolescents with the high-activity MAOA genotype (MAOA-H).The amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (ALFF) of the blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) signal was calculated using REST software,and was compared between two genotype groups.The region ROIs showed significant difference.The ALFF data in ROIs were related to BIS scores.Results Compared with the MAOA-H group,the MAOA-L group showed a significant decrease of ALFF (P＜0.001) in the pons (MNI coordinates:-6,-19,-23;6,-16,-17;-6,-25,-32).In addition,the BIS scores were positively correlated with ALFF in pons in the MAOA-L group (r=0.398,P=0.02),but not in the MAOA-H group.Conclusions There exists relevance between the polymorphism of MAOA and the spontaneous brain activity in pons.And the lower activity of spontaneous brain activity in pons may be a key risk factor for impulsivity and aggression.

Objective To investigate radiation-induced alternations of phospholipids in epithelial cells,and to provide experimental evidence for understanding the mechanism of radiation-induced intestinal injury.Methods The intestinal epithelial cells(IEC-6)in rats were divided into three groups:normal control group,8 Gy X-ray irradiation group and 12 Gy X-ray irradiation group.Phospholipids were extracted at 6 h or 24 h after radiation and then measured by high-performance liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry(HPLC-MS).Results At 6 h after radiation,the phospholipids in 8 Gy irradiation group didn't vary significantly,while those in 12 Gy irradiation group changed.The PG,PI and Lyso PC were significantly up-regulated(F=5.37,9.60,9.88,P＜0.05).However,at 24 h after radiation,many PE and PG species in both irradiation groups declined(F=5.15-99.77,P＜0.05)and SM species increased in 12 Gy irradiation group(F=4.35-7.92,P＜0.05).Conclusions The ionizing radiation could disorder phospholipid metabolism in IEC-6 cells with a dose-dependent manner.

A total of 167 coronary heart disease (CHD) patients were divided into metabolic syndrome (MS) group (68 cases) and non-MS group (99 cases). There were significant differences in the disease-related metabolic indicators and coronary angiography (multivessel lesions, diffuse stenosis, occlusive lesions, Ginsini score) between MS group and non-MS group ( all P<0.05 ). When the patients with MS were divided into 3 groups according to the number of componernts of MS, three lesions, diffuse stenosis, and occlusive lesions were more frequent in five components group compared with three components group. Ginsini points rised with the increased risk factors. There existed differences in Ginsini score between three components group and four, five components group (P<0. 05 or P<0.01 ). Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that obesity, hypertension,diabetes, high low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, and low high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol were the predictors of CHD in patients with MS (P<0.05 or P<0.01 ).

Objective To investigate the role of connexin 43(Cx43)in the apoptosis of pancreatic cancer cell line BxPC and its possible mechanism.Methods pcDNA-Cx43,pcDNA-Cx43N,pcDNA3.0,siRNA-Cx43 and siRNA-NC were transfected into BxPC3 cells via liposome method.Cx43 protein and Cytochrome C(Cyt C)concentration was determined by Western blot,and the apoptosis was analyzed by Annexin V/PI binding assay.The mitechondria apoptosis pathway involved in Cx43 associated apoptosis was examined which contains the depolarization of mitechondrial membrane potential (MMP);fluorospectrophotometer was used to measure the activities of caspase-3 and caspase-9. Gap junction intercellular communication(GJIC) was determined by dye-transfer method.Results Cx43 protein expression increased after BxPC3 transfeetion,apoptosis rate increased from(6.35±0.43)%in empty vector transfection group to(14.29±1.24)%;after H202 treatment,apoptosis rate increased from(20.34±2.47)%to(31.27±2.56)%(P<0.05).Meanwhile,mitochondrial membrane potential was decreased,Cyt C was increasingly released from mitochondria,caspases activities were increased;after siRNA43 interference,apoptosis rate decreased from(7.42±0.47)% to(5.19±1.37)%,after H_2O_2 treatment,apoptosis rate decreased from (19.43±1.71)%to(11.67±1.97)%(P<0.05).Decreased mitochondrial membrane potential and Cyt C release were observed,caspases activities were decreased.GJIC of pcDNA-Cx 43 transfection group increased from 14.52±0.57 to 23.05±3.84.and it increased from 1.70 ±0.24 to 3.84 ±0.45 in the presence of β-GA(P<0.05).But the apoptosis rate was not significantly different.Conclusions Cx43 could promote BxPC3 apoptosis via mitochondrial apoptotic signal pathway,and the possible mechanism included signal pathway other than GJIC.
