A simple and sensitive method was developed for the detection of mercury ions with quartz crystal microbalance(QCM), based on the specific thymine(T)-Hg2+-T structure and gold nanoparticles. The gold nanoparticles were prepared by the citrate reduction method. In a self-assembled way, the particle surface was modified with the probe oligonucleotides which were partially replaced by 6-Mercaptohexan-1-ol to reduce the steric hindrance of hybridization. The sensitivity was optimized by the oligonucleotide with a strand length of 9bp and a T number of 7. The linear range was 5.0-100 nmol/L with a detection limit of 2.0 nmol/L. And Ca2+, Mg2+ and other metal ions had no significant interferences. This method was successfully applied for the detection of Hg2+in environmental water samples, with RSD less than 2.9% and recoveries of 97.3%-101.2%.

Medical intervention is to make use of puncture and catheterization technique for the diagnosis and treatment, relying on the guidance of medical imaging equipment. It is also a new medical branch which is independent of internal medicine and surgery. It is officially named the third largest medical technology. Interventional therapy contains blood vessel intervention and non-vessel intervention. The operation of the catheter and thread in the vessel is the key part of vessel intervention. By comparison it is found that the operation of catheter and thread in the blood vessel is similar to that of the string in the wellbore. Tubular mechanics in oil-gas wells is a mature theoretical mechanics system in the field of Petroleum Engineering. In this paper, the tension-torque model of the tubular mechanics in oil-gas wells is introduced, and the operation of catheter in a simulative vessel is mechanically analyzed with the software of mechanical analysis of drill string in directional wells.

Objective To evaluate the application of high-throughput shell vial assay in a clinical laboratory for detection of respiratory viruses from patients with ILI in Guangzhou between January and June, 2009. Methods Six hundred and fifty-two pharyngeal swab specimens were taken from ILI patents. Centrifugation-enhanced shell vials including 4 cell lines (MDCK, Hep-2, LLC-MK2 and MRC-5) were used for culture of respiratory viruses for 2-3 days. The cultures were identified by observation of cytopathic effect (CPE) , hemmaglution or hemmadsorption test as well as immunofluorescence staining. Results A total of 161 swab samples (24.69% ,161/652) were shown to have any one of the 5 common respiratory viruses including influenza A viruses ( 38. 51% , 62/161 ), influenza B virus ( 54. 65% , 88/161 ), parainfluenza viruses (4. 96% , 8/161 ) , adenovirus ( 1. 24% , 2/161 ), and respiratory syncytial virus (0. 62% ,1/161). The turnaround time was 2d for influenza viruses, 3d for adenovirus and parainfluenza viruses respectively. Conclusions (1) The shell vial method was effective, rapid and high throughout for the detection of respiratory viruses in clinical laboratories.(2)Influenza viruses were dominant in the swab samples from patients with ILI in Guangzhou between January and June with the highest appearance in the summer influenza B vires was the most common pathogen in patients with ILI in this study.

Isatis indigotica Fort. (Ban-Lan-Gen) is an herbal medicine prescribed for influenza treatment. However, its active components and mode of action remain mostly unknown. In the present study, erucic acid was isolated from Isatis indigotica Fort., and subsequently its underlying mechanism against influenza A virus (IAV) infection was investigated in vitro and in vivo. Our results demonstrated that erucic acid exhibited broad-spectrum antiviral activity against IAV resulting from reduction of viral polymerase transcription activity. Erucic acid was found to exert inhibitory effects on IAV or viral (v) RNA-induced pro-inflam-matory mediators as well as interferons (IFNs). The molecular mechanism by which erucic acid with antiviral and anti-inflammatory properties was attributed to inactivation of NF-kB and p38 MAPK signaling. Furthermore, the NF-kB and p38 MAPK inhibitory effect of erucic acid led to diminishing the transcriptional activity of interferon-stimulated gene factor 3 (ISGF-3), and thereby reducing IAV-triggered pro-inflammatory response amplification in IFN-β-sensitized cells. Additionally, IAV- or vRNA-triggered apoptosis of alveolar epithelial A549 cells was prevented by erucic acid. In vivo, erucic acid administration consistently displayed decreased lung viral load and viral antigens expression. Meanwhile, erucic acid markedly reduced CD8+cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) recruitment, pro-apoptotic signaling, hyperactivity of multiple signaling pathways, and exacerbated immune inflammation in the lung, which resulted in decreased lung injury and mortality in mice with a mouse-adapted A/FM/1/47-MA(H1N1) strain infection. Our findings provided a mechanistic basis for the action of erucic acid against IAV-mediated inflammation and injury, suggesting that erucic acid may have a therapeutic potential in the treatment of influenza.

Objective:Based on Logistic regression and XGBoost algorithm, the prediction model of perioperative risk of deep venous thrombosis in patients with acute multiple knee joint injuries was constructed, and the prediction performance was compared.Methods:A total of 120 patients with acute multiple injuries around the knee treated in the Department of Orthopaedic Trauma, Guangzhou Panyu District Central Hospital from January 2017 to June 2020 were retrospectively selected. According to the proportion of 7∶3, the patients were randomly divided into training set ( n=84) and test set ( n=36). The prediction models of Logistic regression and XGBoost algorithm were constructed by training set data, to screen the predictors of perioperative deep venous thrombosis in patients with acute multiple injury around knee joint, and the prediction effect of the model was evaluated by test set data. The measurement data conforming to the normal distribution were expressed as mean±standard deviation ( Mean± SD), and the independent t-test was used for comparison between groups; the measurement data of non-normal distribution were expressed as the median (interquartile range) [ M( P25, P75)], the independent sample Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison between groups; the Chi-square test was used for comparison of enumeration data between groups. Results:The results of Logistic regression model showed that age, hypertension, coronary heart disease, time from injury to operation, D-dimer at 1 day after operation and multiple injuries were predictive factors for perioperative deep venous thrombosis in patients with acute multiple injuries around the knee joint. The top five important feature scores of XGBoost algorithm model were combined multiple injuries (35 points), time from injury to operation (28 points), age (24 points), coronary heart disease (21 points) and D-dimer 1 day after operation (16 points). In the training set, the area under the curve of the Logistic regression model was 0.805 (95% CI: 0.637-0.912), and χ2=1.436, P=0.329 for Hosmer and Lemeshow test. The area under the curve of the XGBoost algorithm model was 0.847(95% CI: 0.651-0.920), and χ2=1.103, P=0.976 for Hosmer and Lemeshow test. Conclusion:Logistic regression model and XGBoost algorithm model are similar in predicting perioperative deep venous thrombosis in patients with acute multiple injuries around the knee, and multiple injuries, time from injury to operation, age, coronary heart disease and D-dimer 1 day after operation can be used as predictive factors.

Background: Blackened intestines in slaughtered pigs have been commonly observed in China in recent years. However, no cause has been reported. Objectives: We attempted to determine whether the blackening of the pig intestine was related to an excess of copper (Cu) in their feed. Methods: In this study, we observed and collected porcine intestines in small- and large-scale pig slaughterhouses in Shandong province from May to October 2018. Twelve types of metal ions were detected in the black intestinal samples. Results: The Cu level in the intestine samples was mostly higher than the Chinese national limit for food. Further study showed that Cu supplementation in most commercial porcine feed also exceeded the national standard. An animal model (mouse) that could mimic the intestinal blackening in pigs was established. Compared to control mice, Cu accumulated in the liver and intestines of mice fed an excessive Cu level, confirming the excessive Cu in the feed may be considered the major cause of blackened porcine intestines. Microscopic examination revealed that black intestines had many particles containing Cu in the lamina propria of the intestinal mucosa, and the intestinal mucosal epithelial cells showed degeneration and necrosis. Conclusions In conclusion, overuse of Cu in animal feed can lead to animal poisoning and Cu accumulation in animal products. Such overuse not only harms the health of livestock but can also affect public health.
