Objective:To observe the effects of ultrasound intermediate frequency acupoint targeted drug guiding technology on the recovery of gastrointestinal function and serum gastrin levels in elderly patients after lumbar spine surgery under general anesthesia.Methods:This study used prospective research methods.A total of 90 elderly patients undergoing lumbar spine surgery after general anesthesia in the orthopaedic ward of Beijing Geriatrics Hospital from June 2019 to June 2021 were randomly divided into blank control group, drug control group, and drug-guided treatment group, with 30 cases each group. After the operation, no intervention was given to the blank control group, the drug control group received oral mosapride citrate tablets, the drug-guided treatment group used the D patch to guide the medicine at the two acupoints of Zusanli and Zhongwan with ultrasound medium frequency guided medicine instrument for 1 week each. The serum gastrin levels of the patients in each group were detected 1 d before operation, 3 d after operation, and 1 week after operation, and the time of first exhaust and first defecation after operation were recorded.Results:The results showed that the level of serum gastrin preoperativein the three groups was not significantly different ( P>0.05). On the third day after operation, the levelof serum gastrin in the drug guide treatment group, drug control group and blank control group were lower than those at 1 d before operation: (66.51 ± 5.34) ng/L vs. (69.36 ± 6.50) ng/L, (58.34 ± 5.71) ng/L vs. (68.75 ± 5.13) ng/L, (55.76 ± 6.23) ng/L vs. (70.20 ± 6.71) ng/L, the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05), and showed a decreasing trend in turn. Among them, the level of serum gastrin in the drug guide treatment group was higher than that in the drug control group and blank control group, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). One week after operation, the level of serum gastrin in the three groups increased compared with the third day after operation ( P<0.05), and the drug guiding treatment group was higher than the drug control group and the blank control group: (72.38 ± 6.78) ng/L vs. (67.15 ± 6.27) ng/L, (63.52 ± 5.38) ng/L, the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The time of first exhaust and defecation after the operation of the three groups of patients, the drug-guided treatment group was significantly shorter than the drug control group and the blank control group: (15.25 ± 3.10) h vs. (20.38 ± 4.21) h and (28.52 ± 3.69) h, (24.14 ± 3.53) h vs. (36.15 ± 3.54) h and (49.51 ± 4.37) h, the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Ultrasound intermediate frequency acupoint drug guiding technology can increase the patient′s serum gastrin level and promote the recovery of gastrointestinal function in elderly patients with lumbar spine surgery after general anesthesia.

Objective:To observe the recovery of exercise tolerance among stroke survivors using the cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) and analyze the factors influencing it.Methods:A total of 81 stroke survivors hospitalized in the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine of our hospital in year 2018 and 2019 were selected. The general clinical data of all patients were collected retrospectively and combined with the data from CPET to establish a data set. Version 25.0 of the SPSS software was used for multiple linear regressions analysis, with the peak oxygen uptake as the dependent variable, and the age, Brunnstrom stage, peak power, peak heart rate, peak respiratory exchange ratio, peak breathing reserve, peak ventilation per minute, the slope of the VE-VCO 2 curve (ΔVE/ΔVCO 2) and peak end tidal partial pressure of carbon dioxide as independent variables. Results:Stroke survivors at Brunnstrom stage III Ⅲ, Ⅳ and Ⅴ or higher decreased sequentially with their age, but their peak oxygen uptake increased gradually. The multiple linear regression model constructed by " stepwise method" showed that the fitted multiple linear regression equation was statistically significant ( F=100.228, P<0.001). Moreover, the average peak power, peak heart rate, peak ventilation per minute and the slope of the VE-VCO 2 curve were all found to be significant independent predictors of peak oxygen uptake in these stroke survivors. Conclusions:Skeletal muscle power, cardiac function, pulmonary ventilation and ventilation efficiency are useful independent predictors of the exercise tolerance of stroke survivors.

Objective:To investigate the level and significance of CD4 + CD25 + Foxp3 + Treg in peripheral blood of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) peripheral neuropathy. Methods:160 patients with T2DM (T2DM group) treated in Yancheng First People's Hospital from January 2018 to March 2019 were selected, including 54 patients with peripheral neuropathy and 106 patients without peripheral neuropathy. At the same time, 160 healthy people were selected as the control group to detect the levels of CD4 + CD25 + Foxp3 + Treg and 25-(OH)D 3 in peripheral blood. Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between CD4 + CD25 + Foxp3 + Treg in peripheral blood and other indexes. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) value curve was used to analyze the predictive value of CD4 + CD25 + Foxp3 + Treg in peripheral blood of type 2 diabetic peripheral neuropathy. Results:The ratio of CD4 + CD25 + Foxp3 + Treg in T2DM group was (7.82±1.03)%, which was significantly lower than that in control group [(15.53±3.82)%, P<0.05]; The duration of T2DM patients with peripheral neuropathy was (7.71±1.18)years, which was significantly longer than that without peripheral neuropathy ( P<0.05), while the proportions of 25-(OH)D 3 and CD4 + CD25 + Foxp3 + Treg were (49.88±12.27)mmol/L and (5.88±1.20)% respectively, which were significantly lower than that without peripheral neuropathy ( P<0.05); Patients with peripheral neuropathy in group T2DM had significantly higher Michigan Diabetic Neuropathy Scores (MDNS) than that in patients without peripheral neuropathy [(14.82±2.01) vs (4.41±0.43), P<0.05]. The CD4 + CD25 + Foxp3 + Treg was positively correlated with 25-(OH)D 3 ( r=0.367, P<0.05), and negatively correlated with MDNS ( r=-0.398, P<0.05); the CD4 + CD25 + Foxp3 + Treg predicted that the area under the ROC curve of T2DM patients with peripheral neuropathy was 0.822, the cut-off value was 6.50%, and the sensitivity and specificity were 80.00% and 72.00% respectively. Conclusions:The level of CD4 + CD25 + Foxp3 + Treg in peripheral blood of T2DM patients decreased, which may play a role in the occurrence and development of peripheral neuropathy.

Objective: To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of hepatitis E Virus antibody (anti-HEV) in people aged 1-29 years in China in 2014. Methods: Based on database of the national serologic survey of hepatitis B in people aged 1-29 years in China, in 2014, the sample size was estimated. The serum samples of the people surveyed were randomly selected to detect anti-HEV IgG by using enzyme- linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Statistical software SAS 9.1.3 was used to calculate the positive rate of anti-HEV and 95% confidence interval (CI) in different age, gender groups, urban and rural areas and geographic areas by using the Taylor series linear method with sampling weight. The difference was determined by comparing 95%CI. Results: A total of 14 106 serum samples were detected from people aged 1-29 years, including 6 996 males (49.60%), 7 013 urban residents (49.72%). The positive rate of anti-HEV was 8.12%(95%CI: 7.19-9.15) in people aged 1-29 years. There was no statistical difference between the men and women, between urban area and rural area. The positive rates of anti-HEV in western area(11.36%, 95%CI: 9.45-13.62) was higher than those in eastern and central areas. The positive rates of anti-HEV were 2.46%, 2.24%, 4.50%, 7.58%, 11.89% and 17.27% in people aged 1-, 5-, 10-, 15-, 20- and 25-29 years, respectively. As the age increased, the positive rate of anti-HEV gradually increased. In different ethnic groups, the positive rate of anti-HEV was higher in Tibetan (18.32%, 95%CI: 12.02-26.90), Zhuang (9.54%, 95%CI: 4.33-19.73) ethnic groups. Conclusion The positive rate of anti-HEV declined slightly in China in 2014. It is still necessary to pay close attention to the HEV infection, morbidity of hepatitis E and risk factors in people aged 1-29 years.

Objective To investigate the relationship between image quality of PET/CT in automatic tube current modulation and effective dose(ED) of patients and to determine the optimal acquisition scheme.Methods Scanning was performed on anthropomorphic phantom RS-550 using GE Discovery ST-16 or Discovery Elite PET/CT.The same CT acquisition conditions was used:tube voltage 120 kV,pitch 1.375,rotation speed 0.8 s,noise index ranged from 8 to 30,interval 2,automatic tube current low limit 30 mA,high limit ranged from 200 to 350 mA,interval 50 mA.The images were analyzed,and the noise,signal to noise ratio (SNR) and figure of merit (FOM) of main organs in the abdomen were calculated.The relationship between image quality and ED was analyzed.Two-sample t test was used for data analysis.Results The noise of each organ decreased significantly along with the increase of ED until the ED of ST-16 increased to 15 mSv or Elite increased to 12 mSv,then the image noise decreased gently.SNR of each organ image increased along with the increase of ED.The FOM of liver decreased along with the increase of ED,while the FOM of other organs did not change significantly with ED.All image indicators of Elite PET/CT were better than ST-16 PET/CT at the same ED (5-20 mSv),though there was no significant difference (t:0.133-4.701,all P＞0.05).When ED was 5 mSy,the noise of liver with ST-16 was 12.0％ (28.9 vs 25.8)higher than that with Elite,and the SNR and FOM of liver with Elite was 13.9％ (4.1 vs 3.6) and 66.7％ (0.50 vs 0.30) higher than that with ST-16,respectively.Conclusion When the ED caused by the 2 PET/CT systems was between 5-20 mSy,the image quality is improved along with the ED increasing in a certain range.

Objective To prepare and characterize specific monoclonal antibodies( McAbs) against the heavy chain of botulinum neurotoxin serotype A ( BoNT/AHc ) .Methods BALB/c mice were immunized with purified BoNT/AHc protein.After the fusion of mouse splenic cells with SP2/0 cells, hybridoma cell lines secreted McAbs against BoNT/AHc. The McAbs obtained were characterized by indirect ELISA, Western blotting and rapid isotypingassay before being used in ELISA to detect interaction sites in McAbs and BoNT/AHc preliminarily.Results Antigen protein BoNT/AHc of high purification was obtained.Four hybridoma cell lines secreting McAbs against BoNT/AHc were screened,named 1A4,3H3, 3H7 and 5H8,respectively.Their titers of McAbs were all above 3.0 ×103 .They were specifically combined with BoNT/AHc protein by Western blotting.The isotype of 1A4 and 3H7 was IgG1(Κ),that of 3H3 was IgM(Κ),and that of 5H8 was IgG2b(Κ).Additive ELISA showed that epitopes recognized by the four McAbs were close.ELISA analysis confirmed the interaction epitopes in McAbs and BoNT/AHc.Conclusion Monoclonal antibodies against BoNT/AHc are prepared and characterized,providing effective tools for studying the neutralizing antibody and antibody epitopes of BoNT/AHc.

OBJECTIVETo explore the safety and efficacy of pegylated recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (PEG-rhG-CSF) in preventing chemotherapy-induced neutropenia in patients with breast cancer and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and to provide the basis for clinical application.

METHODSAccording to the principle of open-label, randomized, parallel-group controlled clinical trial, all patients were randomized by 1∶1∶1 into three groups to receive PEG-rhG-CSF 100 μg/kg, PEG-rhG-CSF 6 mg, or rhG-CSF 5 μg/kg, respectively. The patients with breast cancer received two chemotherapy cycles, and the NSCLC patients received 1-2 cycles of chemotherapy according to their condition. All patients were treated with the combination chemotherapy of TAC (docetaxel+ epirubicin+ cyclophosphamide) or TA (docetaxel+ epirubicin), or the chemotherapy of docetaxel combined with carboplatin, with a 21 day cycle.

RESULTSThe duration of grade 3-4 neutropenia in the PEG-rhG-CSF 100 μg/kg and PEG-rhG-CSF 6 mg groups were similar with that in the rhG-CSF 5 μg/kg group (P>0.05 for all). The incidence rate of grade 3-4 neutropenia in the PEG-rhG-CSF 100 μg/kg group, PEG-rhG-CSF 6 mg group, and G-CSF 5 μg/kg group were 69.7%, 68.4%, and 69.5%, respectively, with a non-significant difference among the three groups (P=0.963). The incidence rate of febrile neutropenia in the PEG-rhG-CSF 100 μg/kg group, PEG-rhG-CSF 6 mg group and G-CSF 5 μg/kg group were 6.1%, 6.4%, and 5.5%, respectively, showing no significant difference among them (P=0.935). The incidence rate of adverse events in the PEG-rhG-CSF 100 μg/kg group, PEG-rhG-CSF 6 mg group and G-CSF 5 μg / kg group were 6.7%, 4.1%, and 5.5%, respectively, showing a non-significant difference among them (P=0.581).

CONCLUSIONSIn patients with breast cancer and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) undergoing TAC/TA chemotherapy, a single 100 μg/kg injection or a single fixed 6 mg dose of PEG-rhG-CSF at 48 hours after chemotherapy show definite therapeutic effect with a low incidence of adverse events and mild adverse reactions. Compared with the continuous daily injection of rhG-CSF 5 μg/kg/d, a single 100 μg/kg injection or a single fixed 6 mg dose of PEG-rhG-CSF has similar effect and is more advantageous in preventing chemotherapy-induced neutropenia.
