Objective:To analyze the infection status of HBV among the healthy population in Tongchuan city in 2023, and compare it against the data from 2006, 2014, and 2020, thereby elucidating epidemiological trends and providing reference for optimizing hepatitis B prevention and control strategies in Tongchuan city.Methods:By using the method of multi-stage stratified random sampling, healthy people aged 1-59 from eight villages/communities in the four districts and counties of Tongchuan city were selected for on-site investigation and blood sample collection. ELISA was used to detect the five hepatitis B markers of the survey respondents, including HBsAg and HBsAb, and the seroprevalence rates of the populations with different characteristics were analyzed. Statistical analysis was performed using Chi-square test.Results:In 2023, a total of 1 926 healthy people were surveyed. After standardization, the positive rates of HBsAg, HBsAb, and HBV, and the rate of all five hepatitis B markers being negative were 0.56%, 54.57%, 26.77%, and 33.05%, respectively. Children aged 1-4 had the lowest positive rates of HBsAg, HBcAb, HBeAb, and HBV, as well as the lowest rate of all five hepatitis B markers being negative, while they had the highest positive rate of HBsAb. In the population aged 1-29, the positive rates of HBsAg and HBV, and the rate of all five hepatitis B markers being negative showed an upward trend with increasing age, while the positive rate of HBsAb showed a downward trend. In particular, the positive rate of HBsAb dropped sharply in the 5-14 age group. In 2023, the positive rate of HBV in the population aged 1-29 was 10.93% (111/1 016), and the rate of all five hepatitis B markers being negative was 38.39% (390/1 016), both lower than the results of the previous three surveys. The positive rate of HBsAb was 56.69% (576/1 016) in people aged 1-29 in 2023, which was higher than the results of the previous three surveys.Conclusions:Although certain achievements have been made in the prevention and control of hepatitis B in Tongchuan city in 2023, with more than one-third of the population showing all negative results in the five hepatitis B tests, the positive rate of HBsAb in the 5-14 age group has dropped sharply. Further actions required for hepatitis B prevention and control in Tongchuan city include optimizing the childhood immunization schedule for national immunization program vaccines, implementing booster programs for adolescents, and developing tailored immunization strategies for adults.

OBJECTIVETo determine the reversal effects of ramification of curcumin hydrolyzed on multidrug-resistant cell line K562/A02, and explore its reversal mechanism.

METHODAfter treatment with ramification of curcumin hydrolyzed, the sensitivity of K562/A02 cells to usuall chemotherapeutic drugs were determined by MTT. The expression of P-gp in K562/A02 and K562 cells was detected by immunohistochemical method. Intracellular mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) of DNR in K562 and K562/A02 cells was detected by Flow Cytometry.

RESULTAfter treatment with the ramification of curcumin, hydrolyzed (2.5 mg x L(-1)) IC50, of usuall chemotherapeutic drugs to K562/A02 decreased. The sensitivity of K562/A02 cells increased. The expression of the P-gp in K562/A02 cells decreased (P < 0.05); MFI of the DNR in K562/A02 cells more significantly increased (P < 0.05). The expression of mdrl-mRNA decreased.

CONCLUSIONThe ramification of curcumin hydrolyzed have effects on the reversal multidrug-resistant of K562/A02 cells in vitro. It could enhance the sensitivity of K562/A02 cells to chemotherapeutic drugs and the mechanism might be associated with inhibiting P-gp-mediated drug efflux and increasing of intracellular concentration of chemotherapeutic drugs.

Objective To explore the relationship between methylenetetra hydrofolate reduetase (MTHFR) C677T genotypo and unstable angina pectoris(UA) in Chinese population. Methods The study consisted of 90 UA cases (UA group), and an age- and sex- matched healthy control cases (control group, n = 90). PC R-RFLP was used to analyze polymorphism of the MTHFR C677T genotypo. The relationship between MTHFR C677T genotype and UA was observed. Results MTHFR 677C→T mutation was found in 30 of 90 patients with unstable angina pectoris (33.33%) and in 15 of 90 control subjects (16.67%). This difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion MTHFR 677C→T mutation is closely related to the unstable angina poctoris.
