Objective: To explore the possibility of performing allogeneic platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatment for patients who were not suitable for autologous PRP collection through case reports of two patients with refractory wounds treated with allogeneic PRP. Methods: The ABO-compatible allogeneic whole blood was centrifuged 3 times to obtain allogeneic PRP within 6 hours of blood collection. Then the qualified allogeneic PRP was applied to 2 cases of refractory wound on the same day. Results: The platelet concentration in allogeneic PRP was higher than 1 000×10 /L, and the test results of infectious diseases, as well as the mixing of red blood cells and white blood cells, met the standard of quality control. Both patients achieved satisfactory wound healing outcomes (3 d). Conclusions: For patients who were not suitable for autologous PRP treatment, allogeneic PRP might be a new option.

OBJECTIVE To observe the effect of Shixiang plaster on promoting the wound healing of diabetic foot ulcer.METHODS Totally 50 male SPF grade SD rats were prepared to establish the diabetic models by feeding with high glucose and high fat forage and intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin,the rats models that were es-tablished successfully were randomly divided into the model group,the Shixiang plaster group and the Kangfuxin solution group.The models of diabetic ulcers were established.The Shixiang plaster group was treated with exter-nal Shixiang plaster,the Kangfuxin solution group was given external Kangfuxin solution,and the model group was treated with coverage with sterile gauze.The wound healing status of the rats was observed,the wound tis-sues were collected for bacterial culture and hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining after drug administration for 14 and 28 days,respectively.The expression levels of nuclear factor-red cell-2-related factor 2(Nrf-2),heme oxygenase-1(HO-1),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-6(IL-6)and vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)were detected by immunohistochemistry(IHC),the expression levels of Nrf-2 and HO-1 were detected with the use of Western Blot,and the levels of serum malondialdehyde(MDA),superoxide dismutase(SOD)and reactive oxygen species(ROS)were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).RESULTS After the drug administration for 14 and 28 days,the wound healing rates of the Shixiang plaster group were(62.15±3.82)％and(81.68±3.83)％,respectively,higher than(47.14±2.80)％and(69.96±6.49)％of the Kangfuxin solu-tion group and(29.14±9.52)％and(57.91±6.63)％of the model group,and there were significant differences(F=21.716,12.626,P=0.002,0.007).The bacterial colony counts of the Shixiang plaster group were less than those of the Kangfuxin solution group and the model group after the drug administration for 14 and 28 days(P＜0.05).The result of HE staining showed that the Shixiang plaster group had a better wound healing.The result of IHC indicated that the expression levels of Nrf-2,HO-1 and VEGF of the Kangfuxin solution group and the Shix-iang plaster group were up-regulated after the drug administration for 28 days,while the expression levels of TNF-α and IL-6 were down-regulated.The expression levels of Nrf-2 and HO-1 proteins of the Shixiang plaster group were higher than those of the Kangfuxin solution group and the model group after the drug administration for 14 and 28 days,the levels of serum MDA and ROS of the Shixiang plaster group were lower than those of the Kangfuxin solution group and the model group,and the serum SOD level of the Shixiang plaster group was higher than that of the model group(P＜0.05).CONCLUSIONS Shixiang plaster can effectively promote the wound heal-ing of the rats with diabetic foot ulcers and reduce the bacterial colony counts of wound surfaces.The mechanism may be associated with the alleviation of oxidative stress injury by mediating the Nrf-2/HO-1 signaling pathways,promotion of angiogenesis and inhibition of excessive inflammatory reactions.

Objective:To evaluate the consistency between bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) in the measurement of body composition in children aged 6-17 years in China.Methods:Fat-free mass, fat mass and fat mass percentage were measured by both BIA and DXA in 1 161 children. t-test or Wilcoxon paired test was used to evaluate the different outcome of the two methods. The correlation and consistency between the methods were evaluated by Spearman correlation coefficients ( r) and Bland-Altman analysis. Results:Body compositions measured by BIA was positively correlated with those measured by DXA (fat mass r=0.95, fat-free mass r=0.98, fat mass percentage r=0.86, all P<0.05). Comparing with DXA, BIA underestimate children's fat mass [the mean difference is -3.15 kg, and the SD is 2.35 kg, 95% limits of agreement (LoA): -7.74-1.45 kg] and fat mass percentage (the mean difference is -8.45%, and the SD is 4.63%, 95% LoA: -17.53%-0.64%). Conclusions:Body compositions measured by BIA was highly positively correlated with those measured by DXA. BIA has certain application value in the measurement of body fat mass and fat-free mass of children aged 6-17 years.

【Objective】 To retrospectively analyze the safety and product quality of NGL XCF 3000 blood cell separator for collecting platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in 256 cases, so as to provide reference for safe collection and product quality control of PRP. 【Methods】 The data of 256 patients receiving PRP treatment in our hospital from June 2021 to June 2022 were statistically analyzed, and the differences in the collection time, circulating blood volume and the occurrence of adverse reactions to blood donation were analyzed when NGL XCF 3000 was used to collect autologous PRP among patients of different genders, ages and platelet counts. The differences in platelet content, red blood cell(RBC) contamination and white blood cell(WBC) residues in PRP products were analized. 【Results】 1) There were no significant differences in collection time, circulating blood volume and collection volume among patients of different genders, ages and platelet counts (P<0.05). 2) The contents of WBC, RBC and platelet were not significantly different between male and female patients after collection (P<0.05); 3) The WBC contents increased with the increase of age, and the WBC residue in the elder group[ 56 to78 years old, (0.64±0.41) ×10⁹/L] was significantly higher than that in the younger group[group 1,18 to 40 years old, (0.50±0.35)×10⁹/L], with significant difference was Statistically significant (P<0.05). 4) The residues of WBCs and RBCs in in low platelet group [group 1, (100-150)×10⁹/L] were higher than those in other platelet count groups, and the difference was Statistically significant (P<0.05), and the platelet count in this product was significantly lower than that in other platelet count groups (P<0.05).

Objective:To observe the efficacy and factors influencing sequential or combined tenofovir alafenamide fumarate (TAF) after treatment with entecavir (ETV) in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) with low-level viremia (LLV).Methods:126 CHB cases treated with ETV antiviral therapy in the Department of Infectious Diseases of the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University from January 2020-September 2022 were retrospectively collected. Patients were divided into a complete virologic response (CVR) group ( n = 84) and a low-level viremia (LLV) group ( n = 42) according to the HBV DNA level during treatment. Clinical characteristics and laboratory indicators of the two groups at baseline and 48 weeks were analyzed by univariate analysis. Patients in the LLV group were divided into three groups according to their continued antiviral treatment regimen until 96 weeks: continued use of ETV as a control group; replacement of TAF as a sequential group; and combination of ETV and TAF as a combined group. The data of the three groups of patients were analyzed by one-way analysis of variance for 48 weeks. HBV DNA negative conversion rate, HBeAg negative conversion rate, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), creatinine (Cr), and liver stiffness test (LSM) were compared among the three groups after 96 weeks of antiviral treatment. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the independent factors influencing the occurrence of HBV DNA non-negative conversion in LLV patients at 96 weeks. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to evaluate the effectiveness of predicting the occurrence of HBV DNA non-negative conversion in LLV patients at 96 weeks. Kaplan-Meier was used to analyze the cumulative negative rate of DNA in LLV patients, and the Log-Rank test was used for comparison. HBV DNA and HBV DNA negative conversion rates during treatment were observed dynamically. Results:Univariate analysis showed statistically significant differences in age, BMI, HBeAg positivity rate, HBV DNA, HBsAg, ALT, AST, and LSM at baseline between the CVR group and the LLV group ( P < 0.05). Univariate analysis of variance revealed no statistically significant difference among the three groups of LLV patients at 48 weeks ( P > 0.05). HBV-DNA negative conversion rate in the sequential group and the combination group was significantly higher than that in the control group after 96 weeks of treatment (88.89% vs. 41.18%, 85.71% vs. 41.18%, χ2 = 10.404, P = 0.006). HBeAg negative conversion rate was higher than that of the control group, with no statistically significant difference ( P > 0.05).Compared with the control group, ALT, Cr, and LSM in the sequential group and the combined group were equally improved to varying degrees, with a statistically significant difference ( P < 0.05). Subsequent use of ETV and HBV DNA at 48 weeks were independent risk factors for HBV DNA positivity at 96 weeks in LLV patients ( P < 0.05). The AUC of HBV DNA at 48 weeks was 0.735 (95% CI: 0.578 ~ 0.891), the cut-off value was 2.63 log 10 IU/ml, and the sensitivity and specificity were 76.90% and 72.40%, respectively. DNA conversion rate was significantly lower in LLV patients receiving 48-week ETV and 48-week HBV DNA≥2.63 log10 IU/mL than in patients receiving sequential or combined TAF and 48-week HBV DNA < 2.63 log 10 IU/mL. HBV DNA negative conversion rates in the sequential group and combined group at 72 weeks, 84 weeks, and 96 weeks were higher than those in the control group during the period from 48 weeks to 96 weeks of continuous treatment, and the differences were statistically significant ( P < 0.05). Conclusion:Sequential or combined TAF antiviral therapy could more effectively improve the 96-week CVR rate, as well as hepatic and renal function, and alleviate the degree of hepatic fibrosis in CHB patients with LLV following ETV treatment. Subsequent use of ETV and HBV DNA load at 48 weeks were independent predictors of HBV DNA positivity at 96 weeks in LLV patients.

OBJECTIV E To in vestigate the situation ，achievements and proble ms of consistency evaluation policy of generic medicines in China. METHODS The descriptive analysis was performed after collecting and sorting out the information of generic medicine passing consistency evaluation （GMPCE） published on the official website of the National Medical Products Administration. The basic information ，the distribution and changes of GMPCE were analyzed statistically in National Essential Medicine List （hereinafter refer to as “essential medicine list ”），Medicine List for National Basic Medical Insurance ，Industrial Injury Insurance and Maternity Insurance （hereinafter refer to as “medical insurance list ”）and the result of the successful selection of centralized medicine procurement organized by the state （hereinafter refer to as “centralized procurement list ”）. RESULTS From 2017 to 2021，415 chemical generic drugs had passed consistency evaluation in China ，including 309 varieties，1 822 specifications， 6 dosage forms ，and 17 pharmacological mechanisms ，basically belonging to 30 provinces，and 492 drug manufacturers （except 12 products had not been found the manufacturers ）；the proportion of GMPCE in essential medicine list increased from 0.96％ in 2012 edition to 25.40％ in 2018 edition；that of GMPCE in medical insurance list increased f rom 2.13％ in 2017 edition to 11.68％ in 2021 edition；in the first 5 batches of centralized procurement list，GMPCE accounted for 81.65％，and the maximum price drop after entering the list was 97.52％. CONCLUSIONS The policy linkage has been achieved with the continual increase of the number of GMPCE and their total amount in three lists in China. The accessibility and affordability of related medicines have been improved with the apparent decrease of the price of those medicines. H owever，total number of GMPCE is a little small，with the higher repetition rate of variety and the low proportion in the three lists ；the guarantee measures of those medicine supply need to be strengthened.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common malignant tumor with poor prognosis and high mortality. In this study, we demonstrated a novel vaccine targeting HCC and tumor neovascular endothelial cells by fusing recombinant MHCC97H cells expressing porcine α-1,3-galactose epitopes (αGal) and endorphin extracellular domains (END) with dendritic cells (DCs) from healthy volunteers. END⁺/Gal⁺-MHCC97H/DC fusion cells induced cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) and secretion of interferon-gamma (IFN-γ). CTLs targeted cells expressing αGal and END and tumor angiogenesis. The fused cell vaccine can effectively inhibit tumor growth and prolong the survival time of human hepatoma mice, indicating the high clinical potential of this new cell based vaccine.

Objective To investigate the influencing factors for low-level viremia (LLV) and their dynamic changes in chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients treated with nucleos(t)ide analogues (NAs) for the first time. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed for 78 CHB patients who attended Department of Infectious Diseases, The First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University, from November 2020 to March 2022 and received antiviral therapy with NAs for at least 12 months, and according to HBV DNA level during treatment, they were divided into sustained virologic response (SVR) group with 58 patients and LLV group with 20 patients. The independent samples t -test or the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of continuous data between two groups, and the chi-square test or the Fisher's exact test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups. The multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the independent influencing factors for LLV and establish a predictive model, and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of this model. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze cumulative HBV DNA negative conversion rate, and the Log-rank test was used for comparison. The analysis of variance with repeated measures was used to analyze the differences in HBV DNA and HBsAg between the two groups or within each group at weeks 0, 12, 24, 36, and 48. Results Compare with the SVR group, the LLV group had significantly higher HBeAg positive rate (90.0% vs 48.3%, χ 2 =10.701, P =0.001), log(HBV DNA) value (7.26±1.46 vs 5.65±1.70, t =-4.178, P < 0.001), and log(HBsAg) value (4.53±0.86 vs 3.44±0.93, t =-4.813, P < 0.001) and significantly lower age [29 (26-34) vs 33 (30-43), Z =-2.751, P =0.009], alanine aminotransferase (ALT) [67.0 (54.0-122.0)U/L vs 111.0 (47.0-406.0)U/L, Z =-2.203, P =0.028], aspartate aminotransferase [43.5 (32.8-62.8) U/L vs 77.5 (35.0-213.0)U/L, Z =-2.466, P =0.014], and liver stiffness measurement [7.7 (6.3-8.5)kPa vs 8.9 (7.2-11.4)kPa, Z =-2.022, P =0.043]. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that baseline HBV DNA (odds ratio [ OR ]=2.365, 95% confidence interval [ CI ]: 1.220-4.587, P =0.011), HBsAg ( OR =4.229, 95% CI : 1.098-16.287, P =0.036), and ALT ( OR =0.965, 95% CI : 0.937-0.994, P =0.018) were independent influencing factors for LLV in CHB patients, and the predictive model of Logit(MLLV)=-8.668+1.441×lgHBsAg+0.598×lgHBV DNA-0.016×ALT was established based on these factors, which had a larger area under the ROC curve than HBV DNA, HBsAg, and ALT (0.931 vs 0.774/0.856/0.666), with a sensitivity of 85.00% and a specificity of 93.10% at the optimal cut-off value of 0.44. The CHB patients with baseline HBV DNA > 7.29 lgIU/mL or HBsAg > 4.38 lgIU/mL had a significantly lower DNA negative conversion rate than those with DNA ≤7.29 lgIU/mL or HBsAg ≤4.38 lgIU/mL ( χ 2 =22.52 and 26.35, both P < 0.001). In the CHB patients, the highest reduction rates of HBV DNA and HBsAg were observed at weeks 12 and 24, respectively, and the LLV group had significantly higher levels of HBV DNA and HBsAg than the SVR group at weeks 0, 12, 24, 36, and 48 (HBV DNA: t =-4.084, -4.526, -5.688, -7.123, and -6.266, all P < 0.001; HBsAg: t =-4.652, -4.691, -4.952, -4.804, and -4.407, all P < 0.001). Conclusion For the CHB patients treated with NAs for the first time, those with high HBV DNA load, high HBsAg quantification, and low ALT level at baseline are more likely to develop LLV, and dynamic monitoring of these indices is of great significance to observe the onset of LLV.
