As a transmembrane protein, CD47 is widely distributed in a variety of cells. It can bind to signal regulatory protein alpha (SIRPα) on macrophages and release inhibitory signals, thus avoiding phagocytosis of macrophages. In lymphoma cells, the expression of up-regulation of CD47 expression in lymphoma cells is one of the important mechanisms for inducing immune escape, and it is also a potential therapeutic target. This article reviews the research progress of CD47-induced immune escape, monoclonal antibodies targeting CD47 and cellular immunotherapy in the treatment of lymphoma.

Objective:
To clarify the importance and practical significance of the standardized rate in primary healthcare work by comparing the differences in the prevalence of myopia in districts in Beijing before and after standardization.
Methods:
This study recruited a total of 41 029 students from 107 primary and secondary schools and 35 kindergartens from the 16 districts of Beijing municipality. All participants underwent distance vision and refractive testing. The presence of myopia was defined as naked eye vision of <5.0 and non-ciliary muscle paralysis under computer optometry with a spherical equivalent objective refractive error of <-0.50 diopters (<-0.50 D). The student composition outlined in the 2018-2019 Beijing Education Development Statistics Summary was used as a standard group to standardize the prevalence of myopia in students from various districts of Beijing. The difference in the pre-and post-standardization rates was used to compare the change in myopia in each district before and after standardization.
Results:
In 2018, the prevalence of myopia in students from Beijing was 57.3%. Stratified by school period, the prevalence of myopia in preschool, primary school, junior high school, ordinary high school, and vocational high school students was 12.1%, 38.4%, 77.2%, 88.3%, and 73.1%, respectively. Although the prevalence of myopia in Daxing District was the highest both before and after standardization, the difference in the prevalence rate was 13.8 percentage points. The prevalence of myopia in Miyun District was the lowest before standardization. However, after standardization, the prevalence of myopia was lowest in Huairou District.
Conclusion
The prevalence of myopia among Beijing students is generally high. Before and after standardization, the prevalence of myopia in different districts was quite different. The results show that, in practice, the standardized prevalence can reveal the true epidemiological characteristics of specific disease.

Small cell carcinoma of cervix (SCCC) is a rare disease with highly aggressive behaviour and is pathologically hard to diagnose. In this study, the clinicopathological features, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of the condition were examined. Clinical records and follow-up data of 7 cases of SCCC were retrospectively studied. Our results showed that five non-recurrent cases initially presented irregular vaginal bleeding or increased apocenosis of varying degrees. Pathological examination revealed that the stroma was diffusely infiltrated with small monomorphous cells ranging from round to oval shape. Three cases were immunohistochemically confirmed. One case was accompanied with squamous cell cancer. Of the 7 cases, one case was classified as stage I b1, two stage I b2, one stage IIa, one stage IIb, and one stage IIIb. On the basis of their stages of condition, one subject with stage III b underwent chemotherapy, and one with stage Ib2 received extensive hysterectomy plus pelvic lymphadenectomy, while the other 5 cases were treated by extensive hysterectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy in combination with pre- and/or post-operative adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Of the 7 patients, 4 had relapse-free survival of 14, 14, 16 and 28 months respectively. It is concluded that SCCC is an aggressive tumor with propensity for early pelvis lymph node metastases. Early-stage patients should be treated by extensive hysterectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy in combination with pre- and/or post-operative adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

Objective:
To understand the current situation of tobacco use in primary and secondary school staff members in Beijing in 2019, and its association with adolescent tobacco use and exposure, in order to promote the construction of smoke-free schools.
Methods:
During April to June in 2019,PPS sampling was used to select primary schools, secondary schools and vocational high school. Each selected school randomly investigates 20 faculty members, totalling 2 737. The monitoring contents mainly include the current tobacco use, knowledge and attitude towards health risk of smoking among the school staff.
Results:
The faculty did not receive the training of adolescent tobacco control (OR=0.20,95%CI=0.14-0.28) were only 20% likely to teach tobacco hazard knowledge compared to the trained staff, and refusal to use tobacco control instruction manual (OR=0.21,95%CI=0.14-0.32) was negatively associated with teaching tobacco control with students. Staff members having given lectures on tobacco refusal were more inclined to uphold "any people can t smoke anywhere on campus "(98.53%), and the interpretation of the rules tends to be more clear. Staff who has been employed for 20-30 years (OR=3.35,95%CI=2.22-5.05) were the most probably to preach tobacco control among students(P<0.05).
Conclusion
Staff caring about health and participate actively in health training were more willing to spread health knowledge. More attention should be paid to the cultivation of health literacy of school staff, and proactively guide faculty unwilling to instruct students in health hazard of smoking to gradually realize the importance of adolescent tobacco control.

Objective:
To understand current situation of e cigarette use and associated factors in primary and secondary school students in Beijing, in order to promote the construction of smoke free schools.
Methods:
During April to June in 2019, PPS sampling was used to select primary schools, secondary schools and trade schools. In each selected school, randomly sampling method was conducted until the sample size was reached. There were 18 312 students included in the analysis. Surveillance information mainly included the current situation of electronic cigarette use and associated factors.
Results:
Among primary and secondary school students who have known about e cigarettes, female students were less likely to use e cigarettes than male students ( OR = 0.47 , 95% CI =0.42- 0.54 ). After entering the second year of junior high school, the possibility of using e cigarettes increased. Smoke free home was associated less e cigarettes usage ( OR =0.78, 95% CI =0.69-0.88). Primary and secondary school students with average daily allowance of 30~<150 yuan and no less than 150 yuan were 1.43 (95% CI =1.22-1.67) times and 2.24 (95% CI =1.79-2.79) times more likely to use e cigarettes than those with 0-10 yuan allowance, respectively. The probability of using e cigarettes among primary and secondary school students who have not tried using cigarettes was only 16.4% compared with those who have tried cigarettes ( OR =0.16, 95% CI =0.14-0.19).
Conclusion
It is necessary to curb the prevalence of e cigarettes among primary and secondary school students. Actions need to be taken urgently to fill in the gaps or correct the mistakes in children and adolescents cognition of e cigarettes, and to adopt more innovative methods to scientifically guide children and adolescents to stay away from e cigarettes.
