Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)is a kind of widespread human pathogen in the world. The emergence of HIVs resulted from multiple transmissions and diversification of SIV from nonhuman primates to humans. In this paper, the findings on the transmission of immunodeficiency virus from Chimpanzees to humans and the adaptive evolution in the new host are reviewed, and the significance for science and public health is discussed.

Objective To report the presentation,clinical course and prognosis of intracranial hypertension (IH) with essential thrombocythemia (ET).Methods Retrospective data analysis was conducted.Seven cases of IH with ET were reviewed between January 2010 and December 2016.The clinical features,and the relationship between IH and ET were analyzed.Results IH complicated with ET was more common among young and middle-aged women.Sub acute or chronic course was more common.IH was easily misdiagnosed as optic neuritis in the early stage.The median platelet count of seven patients was 559 × 109/L.Paroxysmal black haze (four cases) was the most common of the first symptom.The head MRI showed empty sella in six cases.CT venography/DSA showed venous sinus thrombosis in three cases.All the patients were given intracranial pressure lowering and other symptomatic treatment.Five cases were treated with anti ET.Results showed remission in six cases and death in one case.Conclusions In the early stage IH was often misdiagnosed.Female was more common than male in IH with ET.Dural sinus blockage was common.In addition to symptomatic treatment such as lowering intracranial pressure,the patients should also be treated with anti ET.

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical features of patients with primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) in China. MethodsThe reported articles about clinical analysis of patients with PBC in China were searched. The quality of included studies was critically evaluated. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 4.2 software about controlled trials. Results① Ninety-one literatures including 2315 patients wuth PBC were included. ②The common symptoms in PBC were fatigue (54.54％). AMA was found in 74.1％～100％ of patients with PBC, as well as the prevalence rate of anti-M2 range from 45％ to 83％. ANA antibodies present in 20％～83.78％ of patients, the most common antinuclear patterns were nuclear-envelope(38.65％).Increased levels of IgM [(2.8±0.7)～(7.3±5.1) g/L], IgG [(16.5±4.9)～(20.5±5.9) g/L] were found in these patients, and the most common liver histologic classification was type Ⅱ (36.6％). Sjogren's syndrome occured significantly more frequently in PBC (1.96％～34.61％). To the end of follow-up period (five months to nintysix months ), 3.80％ of patients were dead. ③ Meta-analysis performed in several case control studies, showed no significant differences was found in liver tests including of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotrans ferase (AST), total bilirubin (TBil), or gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT), IgG levels between AMA positive groups and AMA negative groups. However, lower levels of IgM presented in the latter. While it also showed that levels of ALP decreased after ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA)therapy. The levels of TBil were lower in the elderly than in younger group, but the mortality ratio for liver diseases was higher in the former. ConclusionThe clinical characteristics of the present series in China are mostly similar to those reported in other countries. Because of the low quality and the small number of included studies, larger sample-size, randomized, double-blinded controlled trials are needed.

Objective To analyze the correlation of acute pancreatitis with hyperlipemia and C reactive pro-tein. Methods 42 patients with acute pancreatitis with hyperlipemia were divided into two groups of SAP group and MAP group under the diagnostic code. The blood fat and CRP were compared between the two groups, also the scores of APACHE Ⅱ , Ranson and CT were measured. Results The CRP and TG in group SAP compared with those in group MAP had significant difference(P<0.01),but the CHOL has no-difference;the scores of APACHEⅡ , Ranson and CT after control lipid in 42 patients were significantly' different( P < 0.05). Conclusion Hyperlipe-mia is one risk factors of the AP;combined with the CRP, it can be one evaluating index of the severity.

Objective To establish a national antibacterial resistance surveillance network and explore the epidemiology of bacterial resistance in China. Methods The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) was determined by National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards (NCCLS) standard agar double dilution method. The susceptibility and resistance rates of drugs were calculated according to the criteria in guidelines of NCCLS (2004). Results According to the previous protocol, a total of 4 075 pathogenic strains isolated from 17 hospitals located at 15 different cities from October 1, 2004 to September 30, 2005 in China were collected and the MICs were detected. Gram-negative bacilli were 3 150 strains ( 77.3%). Enterobacteriaceae Were highly susceptible to Carbapenems. In addition, Moxalactam, Piperacillin/Tazobactam, Cefoperazone/Sulbactam and Cefepime were also exhibited good antibacterial activities against Enterobacteriaceae,the resistance rates of them were less than 10 %. The resistance rates of nonfermentative Gramnegative bacilli, such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumanii, to Imipenem were 10. 6 % and 10.4 % , respectively. Cefoperazone/Sulbactam, Piperacillin/Tazobactam and Fluoroquinolones also showed good activity against nonfermentative Gram-negative bacilli.Conclusions The drug resistance rates of Escherichia coli and Acinetobacter baumanii increase obviously. Fluoroquinolones and Aminoglycosides are not very effective against Enterobacteriaceae,which should be paid more attention.

OBJECTIVETo analyze the status and papers information of Chinese Journal of Applied Physiology, and provide a guide for authors, readers and editing staffs.

METHODSWe retrieved papers of Chinese Journal of Applied Physiology from 2009 to 2013 from CNKI, and performed a statistical analysis of papers information contained in the text using bibliometrics method. Papers information such as document type, found support, author affiliation type, and discipline classification, etc. was analyzed.

RESULTSSeven hundred and forty two papers including 27 full English articles in total were published in Chinese Journal of Applied Physiology from 2009 to 2013. More papers were supported by national, provincial, and the other foundation, it was about 82.6% of all papers.

CONCLUSIONChinese Journal of Applied Physiology has stable manuscript resources, various discipline papers, and play an important role for development of applied physiology in China.
