Innate lymphoid cells are an important part of innate mucosal immunity and participate in immune response by secreting effector cytokines and regulating the functions of other immune cells.They are similar to T helper cells in transcription factors and secretory cytokines,but they also have some unique functions.Different innate lymphocyte subsets play different roles in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)according to their respective characteristics.Compared with adaptive lymphocyte,innate lymphocyte is relatively less in lymphoid tissue,accounting for only a small part of lung immune cells,but these lymphocyte cells play a crucial role in the development and progression of COPD.In this paper,the role of innate lymphoid cells in COPD and the related research progress were reviewed.

OBJECTIVE To design and synthesize rifamycin S derivatives and load them into milk exosomes to evaluate their in vitro antimicrobial activity.METHODS Rifamycin S derivatives were synthe-sized and characterized by mass spectrometry and NMR.Using the dilution assay method,the inhibitory activity of each rifamycin S derivatives molecule against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aerugi-nosa was determined,and the IC50 was calculated.Derivatives molecules with excellent antimicrobial activity were selected and loaded into milk exosomes using the ultrasonication method,resulting in the preparation of milk exosome-loaded rifamycin S derivatives.The antimicrobial activity against Staphylo-coccus aureus was determined using the dilution assay method.The inhibitory effect of the exosome-loaded rifamycin S derivatives on Staphylococcus aureus residing within macrophages was detected using the plate colony counting method.RESULTS Three rifamycin S derivatives were successfully designed and synthesized,which demonstrated superior antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus(the parent compound's antimicrobial activity is merely from 1/20 to 1/80 of that of the three rifamycin S derivatives)and Pseudomonas aeruginosa(the parent compound's antimicrobial activity is only 1/14 and 1/9 of that of compound 1 and compound 3)compared to the parent compound.The loading of milk exosomes with the rifamycin S derivatives compound 3 was successfully achieved,with a loading efficiency of 10.9％.The antimicrobial activity of the compound after exosome loading was significantly enhanced against Staphylococcus aureus in vitro and against Staphylococcus aureus residing within macrophages(P＜0.01).CONCLUSION The designed and synthesized derivatives of rifamycin S possess stronger anti-microbial activity,and their antibacterial efficacy against both extracellular and intracellular bacteria can be further enhanced after loading into exosomes.

Objective:To survey the knowledge levels about diagnosis and management of asthma among general practitioners in community health centers in Shanghai and to analyze influencing factors.Methods:A questionnaire survey was conducted from May to June 2022 among general practitioners from 80 community health care centers in Shanghai. The questionnaire contained the basic information of the responders; knowledge about the diagnosis of asthma (symptoms, diagnostic methods, interpretation of bronchodilation and fractional exhaled nitric oxide, FeNO tests); and treatment of asthma (choosing and usage of therapeutic drugs). Logistic regression was used to analyze.Results:A total 324 general practitioners completed the questionnaire survey. Among them 221 (68.21%) had bachelor degree; 200 (61.73%) were attending doctors; the median working duration was 11 years; 174 (53.70%) had training on asthma knowledge in last 3 years. The survey results showed that 55 (16.98%) responders misinterpreted results of bronchodilation test, and 90(5.86%)misinterpreted results of FeNO test for diagnosis of asthma; 244 responders (75.31%) suspected implication of long-term cough for diagnosis of asthma; 277(85.49%)would order bronchodilation text to suspected patients; 273(84.26%)prescribed inhaled corticosteroid plus long-acting beta-2 agonist to asthma patients. For mild asthma patients, 144 responders(44.44%)suggested to use budesonide formoterol as needed; for moderate to severe asthma, 174(53.70%)suggested to use budesonide formoterol regularly and as needed, 100(30.86%)suggested to use salmeterol fluticasone regularly and salbutamol as needed. Logistic analysis showed that longer working duration was correlated with higher misinterpretation rate of bronchodilation and FeNO tests( OR=0.798,95% CI:0.694-0.918, P=0.002; OR=0.859,95% CI:0.739-0.998, P=0.047). The accuracy rate of all the questions was significantly higher in general practitioners who had training on asthma knowledge than those who didn′t receive training in last 3 years(all P<0.05). Conclusions:Most general practitioners in community health service centers in Shanghai have relatively high levels of knowledge about diagnosis and treatment of asthma. Years of work experience and training experience can affect the levels of asthma knowledge among community general practitioners.

Objective:To study the expression level of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) in combined hepatocellular-cholangiocarcinoma (cHCC-CCA) and its correlation with the clinical characteristics and prognosis.Methods:The clinical data of 75 patients with cHCC-CCA undergoing surgery in Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital from January 2011 to December 2019, including 61 males and 14 females, with a median age of 55 years (36 to 77). Immunohistochemistry was conducted to determine the PD-L1 expression in tumor. The status of PD-L1 expression, clinicopathological data and prognosis of patients were analyzed.Results:In low-differentiated cHCC-CCA tissues, the proportion of PD-L1 expression (21.1%, 8/38) was higher than that in moderately to well-differentiated cHCC-CCA tissues (2.70%, 1/37, χ2=4.366, P=0.037). The median disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS)of PD-L1 positive patients were 12.3 and 15.1 months, respectively, lower than those of PD-L1 negative patients (14.4 and 23.3 months). The difference of DFS was statistically significant ( χ2=4.052, P=0.044). In multivariate analysis, major vascular invasion (DFS: HR=1.965, 95% CI: 1.119-3.450, P=0.019; OS: HR=1.781, 95% CI: 1.022-3.105, P=0.042) and lymph node metastasis (DFS: HR=2.451, 95% CI: 1.1033-5.814, P=0.042; OS: HR=2.652, 95% CI: 1.120-6.279, P=0.027) were identified as independent prognostic factors affecting DFS and OS. Conclusions:The proportion of PD-L1 positive is higher inthe low-differentiated cHCC-CCA tissue compared to that in moderately to well-differentiated cHCC-CCA. The major vascular invasion and lymph node metastasis are independent factors affecting the prognosis of patients with cHCC-CCA.

Objective:To investigate the effect of conventional treatment plus long-term transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on consciousness recovery in patients with minimally conscious state (MCS) after traumatic brain injury (TBI).Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 60 patients with MCS after TBI admitted to Zhejiang Armed Police Corps Hospital from January 2019 to December 2020, including 38 males and 22 females, aged 19-60 years [(45.7±11.4)years]. Course of disease was 3-6 months [(4.6±0.9)months]. Of all, 30 patients received internal medicine, hyperbaric oxygen, rehabilitation and other conventional treatment (conventional treatment group), and 30 patients received tDCS stimulation on the basis of conventional treatment (tDCS treatment group). The tDCS stimulation contained 4 cycles for 28 days with each cycle lasting for 7 days (stimulation for 5 days, rest for 2 days). Coma recovery scale-revised (CRS-R) total score, brainstem auditory evoked potential (BAEP) score and clinical effictive rate (significantly effective+effective) were compared between the two groups before treatment, during 4 cycles of treatment and at 6 months and 12 months after treatment. Complications induced by tDCS were also evaluated.Results:There was no significant difference in CRS-R total score and BAEP score between the two groups before treatment (all P>0.05). CRS-R total score and BAEP score in tDCS treatment group were significantly higher than those in conventional treatment group during 4 cycles of treatment and at 6 months and 12 months after treatment (all P<0.05). CRS-R total score and BAEP score in both groups gradually increased during 4 cycles of treatment and at 6 months and 12 months after treatment (all P<0.05). The clinical effective rate in tDCS treatment group was 73% (22/30) when compared to 57% (17/30) in conventional treatment group ( P<0.05). In tDCS treatment group, 10 patients had local reversible slight redness at the cathodal position, while no other serious adverse effects, such as local burns, ulceration, exudation or epilepsy. Conclusion:Compared with conventional treatment, conventional treatment plus long-term tDCS can be more effective in improving the state of consciousness without serious adverse effects for MCS patients after TBI.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficiency of a modified double-tract reconstruction procedure─proximal gastrectomy with piggyback interposed jejunal single-channel reconstruction (PJIR-STR) for early SiewertⅡ adenocarcinoma of esophagogastric junction (AEG).Method:Data of 8 SiewertⅡ AEG patients at Shanxi Tumor Hospital and undergoing PJIR-STR from May 2018 to Oct 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The gastroesophageal reflux disease questionnaire (GerdQ) was used to score the patients at 3, 6, 12, and 18 months after surgery. The severity of postoperative reflux esophagitis was assessed by gastroscopy at 3, 6 months after surgery, using the Los Angeles Classification criteria.Result:All patients recovered well after surgery without serious complications. No obvious gastroesophageal reflux was observed in all patients at different periods (All of the GerdQ scores were <8 points.) The results of gastroscopy showed that 1 patient was diagnosed as grade B reflux esophagitis at 3, 6 months after surgery, which was responsive to conservative treatment, and the other 7 patients had no grade B or above reflux esophagitis.Conclusion:PJIR-STR is a feasible, safe reconstruction with excellent efficiency of dual anti-reflux for the SiewertⅡ AEG.
