Objective To investigate the localization and distribution of the five endocrine cells in the digestive tract mucosa of ricefield eel(Monopterus albus). Methods Using immunocytochemical technique of strept avidin-biotin-peroxidase complex(SABC) were used. Results At least 5 kinds of immunoreactive endocrine cells distributed in the digestive tract mucosa of M.albus. They were gastrin(Gas),somatostatin(Som),5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT),insulin(Ins),and neurofilament (NF) immunoreactive endocrine(IRE) cells.Gas and Som-IRE cells distributed between stratified squamous epithelium and goblet cell in esophagus. A large number of Gas-IRE cells were found between gastric fundus epithelium and gastric glands, and only a few in the carcia. Ins, 5-HT and NF-IRE cells distributed in the epithelium pylorus and pyloric glandular tube respectively. No any immunoreactive positive reaction was found in the gut of M.albus.In addition, immunoreactive positive reaction of glucagons was not found in whole digestive tract.All immunoreactive endocrine cells were dark brown in color.Their morphology was irregular, cytoplasmic process was shorter and thicker, their nucleus showed an empty bubble.They distributed between esophageal epithelium and gastric epithelium or glandular epithelium, and cytoplasmic process extended to the gastric lumen and glandular cavity.Conclusion There is a complex endocrine function of the digestive system in ricefield eel (M.albus) at the lowest vertebrate.

OBJECTIVE To study the resistance of Acinetobacter baumannii in our hospital and the relation with ADC ?-lactmases.METHODS Antibiotic susceptibility testing was determined by K-B methods to 115 A.baumannii strains,and three dimensional extract testing was performed to detect the ADC ?-lactmases-producing strains,blaADC gene was detected by PCR methods,and the MIC of ceftazidime,et al were determined in the presence of cloxacillin(500 mg/L) in 30 A.baumannii strains detected.RESULTS The resistance to imipenem and cefoperazone/sulbactam was below 10.4%,to other antibiotic resistance was over 54%;the multiresistance strains were 59%.ADC ?-lactmases and blaADC genes were all positive and the MIC of ceftazidime,et al except cefepime was decreased over eight-fold in the presence of cloxacillin for multiresistant A.baumannii,but not for non-multiresistant A.baumannii.CONCLUSIONS The resistance of A.baumannii is very serious in our hospital,ADC ?-lactmases-producing strains are related markedly with the multiresistance of A.baumannii.

Objective:To study effect of health education on blood pressure control in patients with hypertension through community survey and perform health education.Methods:Residents from Datang street community re-ceived systematic sampling and questionnaire.A total of 490 patients with hypertension detected during census were regarded as subjects,and they were randomly divided into routine treatment group (n=240)and health education group (n=250).Health education group received health education,and effects were compared between two groups. Results:Compared with routine treatment group after intervention,there were significant rise in awareness rate of preventive and therapeutic knowledge [diagnostic value of hypertension (49.17% vs.58.40%),risk factors of hy-pertension (30.41% vs.58.00%),antihypertensive medication (58.75% vs.79.60%)]and control rate of blood pressure (23.33% vs.60.80%),and significant reduction in blood pressure [(147.68±13.97)/(89.30±12.43)mm-Hg vs.(143.57±13.53)/(85.73±11.54)mmHg]in health education group,P<0.05 or<0.01. Conclusion:Carry-ing out targeted health education possesses active significance for prevention and treatment of hypertension.

BACKGROUND:At present, spinal cord ischemia/reperfusion injury is considered as the main reason for secondary paralysis after spinal decompression, and to control the levels of stress-related proteins and excitatory amino acids plays an important role in the treatment of spinal cord ischemia/reperfusion injury. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the expression level of protein disulfide-isomerase A3 (PDIA3) after spinal cord ischemia/reperfusion injury in rabbits. METHODS:Thirty-six New Zealand white rabbits were enrolled, the models of spinal cord ischemia/reperfusion injury were established using Zivin's method, and were then randomized into six groups (n=6 per group). The rabbit abdominal aorta in control group was exposed without vascular occlusion and then the abdominal cavity was closed 30 minutes later. In experimental groups, the abdominal aorta was blocked for 30 minutes, followed by 0, 6, 12, 24 and 48 hours of reperfusion, and then the abdominal cavity was closed. The neurological function was evaluated with a modified Tarlov score. The L3-5lumbar vertebrae were removed, and PDIA3 was screened by two-dimensional fluorescence differential gel electrophoresis combined with mass spectrometry, and then its temporal and spatial changes in the spinal cord were detected by western blot assay and immunohistochemistry. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The function of hind limbs was improved in all the experimental groups after spinal cord ischemia/reperfusion injury, and the modified Tarlov scores reached the peak at 24 hours after schemia/reperfusion injury, and decreased slightly at 48 hours. The expression of PDIA3 in the control group showed clear imprinting, which was slightly strengthened at 0 hour, became more strengthened at 6-12 hours, significantly reduced to the minimum level at 24 hours, and returned to the level of 6-12 hours at 48 hours after ischemia/reperfusion. Immunohistochemical results showed that there was visible PDIA3 in the cytoplasm of neurons, and the expression level in the interneurons was significantly higher than that in the motor neurons. These results suggest that upregulated PDIA3 appears in the development and progression of spinal cord ischemia/reperfusion injury, indicating that PDIA3 is closely related to spinal cord ischemia/reperfusion injury, which can be used as a new diagnosis and treatment target.

Objective To investigate mutation patterns in core promoter(CP)region of hepatitis B virus(HBV).Methods HBV DNA was extracted from sera of patients with chronic HBV infection.The CP sequence was amplified by polymerase chain reaction(PCR)and cloned into pMD19 T vector.The positive clones were then sequenced.The sequences were compared with known HBV genome in GenBank to identify the mutation sites and patterns of patients with chronic HBV infection.Results There were 74 clones from 21 patients with chronic HBV infection which were sequenced.The sequence comparisons showed that there was a 234-nucleotide deletion in CP region of HBV genome in 54 clones and a 245-nucleotide deletion in one clone.These deletion regions included CP,HBeAg initiation codon and direct repeat sequence(DR)Ⅰ regions,which named CP deletion(CPD).A1585T replacement mutation was also found in HBV strain with CPD,which indicated that there was linkage between these two mutations.Conclusions A novel mechanism of HBeAg negative chronic hepatitis B is observed,which includes deletions of CP and HBeAg initiation codon.Meanwhile,a simple and useful PCR method is developed to detect CPD.

Head and neck osteosarcoma is a rare tumor. Its clinical features and recurrence pattern are different from those of osteosarcoma in other parts. Osteosarcoma of the head and neck occurs late with a high local recurrence rate and a low distant metastasis rate. Local recurrence is the main cause of death. Surgery is the main treatment. Postoperative radiotherapy is recommended for patients with positive surgical margin, proximal incisional margin and uncertain surgical margin. The role of chemotherapy remains controversial. Effective molecular targeted therapeutics need to be further explored for recurrent, metastatic and unresectable osteosarcoma, .

Objective To investigate the effect of polylactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA)/graphene oxide (GO) nanofibers combined with brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) on neural stem cells (NSCs) proliferation and differentiation as well as on the spinal cord injury repair.Methods PLGA/GO nanofibers were manufactured and absorbed with BDNF,and the microstructure of PLGA/GO nanofibers was observed by scanning electron microscope.The loading efficiency and release curve of BDNF on PLGA/GO nanofibers were measured by ELISA.NSCs were implanted on the surface of PLGA/GO and PLGA/GO/BDNF nanofibers.The absorbance values of each group were measured by MTT method,and the expression of Tuj-1 was observed by immunofluorescence and PCR.A total of 30 female SD rats were divided into control group (n =10),PLGA/GO group (n =10) and PLGA/GO/BDNF group (n =10) according to random number table.T9 spinal cord tissue was cut by Venus scissors to establish spinal cord hemisection injury model of rats.PLGA/GO and PLGA/GO/BDNF nanofibers were implanted onto the surface of injury site.BBB score was used to assess the motion functional recovery of the rats at 1,7,14 and 28 days after operation.Immunofluorescence staining of neuron specific nucleoprotein (NeuN)and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) were performed to observe the expressions of neurons and astrocytes at the injured site respectively one month after injury.Results The PLGA/GO nanofibers showed an irregular smooth fiber-like structure,and the average fiber diameter was (987.5 ± 176.3)nm.NSCs could differentiate into neurons on the nanofibers.The result of ELISA showed loading rate of BDNF on PLGA/GO nanofibers was about 47.5％.The release curve showed that BDNF was first released about 30％ on the first day and then about 60％ on the 21st day.The results of MTT and PCR showed that optical density value and Tuj-1 gene expression in the PLGA/GO/BDNF group were significantly higher than those in the PLGA/GO group (P ＜ 0.05).The animal experiment results showed that the BBB score of PLGA/GO/BDNF group was (15.3 ±0.7) points at 28 days after injury,which was significantly higher than that of the injury control group [(11.8 ± 0.8) points] and that of PLGA/GO group [(12.7 ±0.8) points] (P ＜ 0.05).Immunofluorescence results showed that the expression of NeuN in PLGA/GO/BDNF group was 13.7 ± 2.2,significantly higher than that in injury control group (4.3 ± 2.9) (P ＜0.05),and the expression of GFAP in PLGA/GO group was (25.6 ± 4.3) ％ significantly lower than that in injury control group [(38.5 ± 6.2) ％] and PLGA/GO group [(36.7 ± 7.3) ％] (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion PLGMGO nanofibers combined with BDNF can effectively promote the proliferation and neuron differentiation of NSCs in vitro and repair spinal cord injury in vivo through orthotopic transplantation at the injury site.

Objective: To evaluate the post-marketing safety of inactivated Enterovirus type 71 (EV-A71) vaccine (human diploid cell) . Methods: A total of 20 191 healthy children aged 6 to 59 months were invited to receive 2 doses of EV-A71 vaccine in Zhejiang Province from September 2016 to December 2017. Child caregivers were followed up on the 4^th or 5^th day after each EV-A71 vaccination, and the incidence of local, systemic, and other adverse events within 3 days after vaccination was recorded to assess vaccine safety. Describe the differences in adverse events among children with different characteristics. Results: A total of 32 230 doses were observed in this study, of which 20 191 and 12 039 were vaccinated for the first and the second dose, respectively; and the incidence of adverse events within 3 days was 2.045% (413 doses) and 1.611% (194 doses), respectively. After the first and the second dose, the number of systemic adverse events was the highest, 371 and 175 cases, respectively, with an incidence of 1.837% and 1.454%, respectively; the number of local adverse events was the lowest, 14 and 2 doses, respectively, with an incidence of 0.069% and 0.017%. Local adverse events occurred after vaccination were generally mild, and only 2 patients had level of 3; among the systemic adverse events, 39 patients had a fever level of 3 or higher, accounting for 8.2% of the total fever. Most of the symptoms in the local adverse events did not require treatment, only 3 cases of vaccination site rash and 2 cases of pruritus were self-purchased drugs or outpatient treatment; except for 5 cases of fever, the other symptoms were not hospitalized in the case of systemic adverse events. Conclusion The incidence of adverse events within 3 days after vaccination with EV-A71 vaccine was low in children, mainly systemic adverse events, and the prognosis was good.

Objective To investigate the incidence and risk factors of neonatal asphyxia in Hubei Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture. Methods Live born infants, including those diagnosed with neonatal asphyxia, were recruited from 16 different hospitals in Hubei Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture from January to December of 2016. The 16 hospitals included four grade A tertiary hospitals (three general hospitals and one traditional Chinese medicine hospital) and 12 grade A secondary hospitals (eight general hospitals, one maternal and child health hospital and three traditional Chinese medicine hospitals). A retrospective investigation was conducted using questionnaire to analyze the basic information, perinatal risk factors and prognosis of those infants. Chi-square test was used for statistical analysis. Results Among 22 294 recruited live born infants, 733 (3.29%) were diagnosed with neonatal asphyxia on discharge, including 627 (85.54%) mild cases and 106 (14.46%) severe cases. And neonatal asphyxia resulted in deaths of 27 cases (3.68%). The risk factors for neonatal asphyxia included multiple pregnancy, pregnancy conceived with assisted reproductive technology, premature infant, low birth weight infant, fetal malposition, congenital malformation, male infant, born during transfer, mother of Tujia nationality, low educational level (primary school or lower), living in rural area, the number of antenatal visits ≤3, history of early threatened abortion, anemia in pregnancy, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, chorioamnionitis, abnormal pregnancy history and abnormality of umbilical cord, amniotic fluid or placenta. Conclusions The incidence of neonatal asphyxia in Enshi area is obviously higher than the national average. The main risk factors for neonatal asphyxia in this area are related to maternal background and the living condition of the mother during pregnancy, delivery as well as the newborn at birth.
