Objective:To compare the effects of different appointment regimens on the daily waiting time, fixedness of treatment time and lateness rate of radiotherapy patients.Methods:Medical records of 5488 radiotherapy from 332 patients on the same linear accelerator in West China Hospital of Sichuan University from March to June 2022 were selected. Based on the radiotherapy information integration platform of MOSAIQ, all patients were randomly assigned to the morning class, afternoon class and evening class. Traditional manual appointment regimen was adopted for the morning class, 30 min appointment regimen for the afternoon class, and 15 min appointment regimen for the evening class, respectively. The differences in patient waiting time for treatment, fixedness of treatment time, and lateness rate under different appointment regimens were compared. The fixedness of treatment time and waiting time was determined by one-way ANOVA, and the 2×3 Chi-square test was adopted for the lateness rate. Results:The waiting time in the 15 min appointment, the 30 min appointment and manual appointment groups were (27.08 ± 17.21), (34.57± 19.12) and (41.50 ±20.94) min, respectively. There was statistical significance among three appointment regimens ( F=254.97, P<0.001). The waiting time was the shortest in the 15 min appointment group, followed by the 30 min appointment group, and the manual appointment group (all P<0.001 for two-group comparison). The fixedness of treatment time in the 15 min appointment, the 30 min appointment and the manual appointment groups were (15.60±7.87), (18.69±8.94) and (24.30±15.10) min, respectively. There was statistical significance among three groups ( F=25.23, P<0.001). Among them, the fixedness of treatment time in the 15 min appointment group was the highest, followed by the 30 min appointment group, and the manual appointment group (all P<0.001). The lateness rates in the 15 min appointment, the 30 min appointment and the manual appointment groups were 5.7%, 6.2% and 9.6%, respectively. The lateness rate in the manual appointment group was higher than those in the 15 min appointment and the 30 min appointment groups ( χ2=19.24、14.90, both P<0.001), but there was no statistical significance in the lateness rate between the 15 min appointment and 30min appointment groups ( χ2=0.39, P=0.535). Conclusion:In the clinical practice of conventional intensity-modulated radiotherapy technology carried out by conventional linear accelerator, the 15 min appointment regimen can shorten the waiting time for radiotherapy and improve the fixedness of daily radiotherapy time, which is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of subcutaneous immunotherapy with dermatophagoides pteronyssinus standardized extract given in conventional and cluster immunotherapy schedules for persistent allergic rhinitis.Methods One hundred and ten patients with moderate to severe allergic rhinitis caused by dust mites,in accordance with the immunotherapy inclusion criteria,were allocated to receive conventional immunotherapy as group A (n =57) or cluster immunotherapy as group B (n =53).In group A,7 cases were lost to follow-up,the expulsion rate of group A was 12.28% ; in group B,1 case was lost to follow-up,the expulsion rate of group B was 1.89%.Nasal symptom scores,medicine scores and mini rhinoconjunctivitis quality of life questionnaire (Mini RQLQ) were recorded and compared before and after 7 weeks,15 weeks,1.0 year,1.5 years,2.0 years.All the scores were assessed to evaluate the clinical efficacy,and also the incidence of local and systemic adverse reactions were registered to evaluate the safety.SPSS 19.0 software was used to analyze the data.Results Nasal symptom scores,medicine scores and Mini RQLQ of both groups were significant lower than those before the treatment (all P < 0.05).Mini RQLQ and nasal symptom scores in cluster group (0.55 ± 0.21,0.57 ± 0.27) were more significantly declined than the conventional group after 7 weeks and 2.0 years of observation (all PMini RQLQ < 0.05 ; nasal symptom scores:1.41 ± 0.65,0.83 ± 0.30,t value was 11.344,5.649,both P < 0.05).The clinical efficiency rate in cluster group (86.5%,94.2%) were more significantly highter than those (60.0%,80.0%) in the conventional group after 7 weeks and 2 years of observation(x2 value was 9.224,4.642,both P < 0.05).The medicine scores in cluster group (0.11 ± 0.04) was more significantly declined than conventional group (0.47 ± 0.11) after 7 weeks (t =27.665,P < 0.05).The incidence of local and systemic adverse reactions during the incremental-dose phase and maintenance-dose phase compared with conventional immunotherapy were not significantly different (P > 0.05).Conclusion The cluster immunotherapy is a safe treatment method which is more effective and faster than conventional immunotherapy to the dust mites caused allergic rhinitis.

Maize (Zea mays L.), wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and rice (Oryza sativa L.) are three staple crops and accordingly it is very meaningful to optimize the condition of their protoplasts isolation. The concentration of the enzyme, the time of isolation and centrifugal force in protoplast isolation were investigated to find their effects on protoplast yield and viability using leaves of maize (Zong 3), wheat (Chinese Spring) and rice (Nipponbare). The results show that the concentration of the enzyme and the time of isolation affected the protoplast yield significantly. Although the yield of protoplast was increased with high concentration of enzyme and long incubated time, it led to too much cells breakdown. The orthogonal experimental design results show that the best condition of maize protoplast isolation was Cellulase R-10 1.5%, Macerozyme R-10 0.5%, 50 r/min 7 h, 100 x g 2 min and the protoplasts yield was 7x106 cells/g fresh weight (FW); the best condition of wheat protoplast isolation was Cellulase R-10 1.5%, Macerozyme R-10 0.5%, 50 r/min 5 h, 100 x g 2 min and the protoplasts yield was 6 x 10(6) cells/g FW; the best condition of rice protoplast isolation was Cellulase R-10 2.0%, Macerozyme R-10 0.7%, 50 r/min 7 h, 1 000 x g 2 min and the protoplasts yield was 6x10(6) cells/g FW. The vitalities were more than 90% using fluorescein diacetate staining method. 50%-80% transformation efficiency was obtained when protoplasts were transformed by green fluorescent protein using PEG-Ca2+ method.

ObjectiveTo investigate the expression of TGF ?1 and type Ⅰ receptor and their relations with intimal hyperplasia in autogenous vein grafts in rats. Methods Autogenous vein graft model was established in 48 Wistar rats. The vein grafts were harvested on day 3, 7, 14, and 28.Histomorphological methods were used to measure the thickness of intima and wall at different time points. Immunohistochemistry and Western blot were used to detect the protein expression of TGF ?1 and TGF ?RⅠ . RT PCR was used to detect their mRNA level. ResultsThe intimal thickness increased on day 7 compared with controls( P
