OBJECTIVE: To confirm the sequence of a null allele HLA-C*08:127N produced by a base insertion. METHODS: PCR sequence-specific oligonucleotide probe (SSOP) and PCR sequence-based typing (SBT) were used for HLA routine detection, which discovered abnormal sequence maps of HLA-C in one acute myeloid leukemia patient. The sequence of the above loci was confirmed by next generation sequencing (NGS) technology. RESULTS: The SSOP typing result showed that HLA-C locus was C*03:04, C*08:01, while the sequence was suspected to be inserted or deleted in exon 3 by SBT, and finally confirmed by NGS as C*03:04, C*08:127N. CONCLUSION When base insertion produces HLA null alleles, SBT analysis software cannot provide correct results, but NGS technology can more intuitively obtain accurate HLA typing results.

Objective:To investigate the accuracy of next-generation sequencing technology(NGS)in detecting the polymorphisms of HLA-DRB1,DQB1,DQA1,DRB3,DRB4,DRB5,DPA1 and DPB1 alleles in randomly-selected unrelated healthy individuals from Shenzhen Han population,investigate the potential reason for HLA-DRB1 allele dropout in routine NGS,and establish an internal quality control system.Methods:NGS-based HLA class Ⅱ genotyping was performed on 1 012 samples using the MiSeqDxTM platform.The suspected missed alleles indicated by the quality control software and HLA-DRB1 homozygotes were confirmed by PCR-SSOP or PCR-SBT methods.Results:A total of 139 alleles were detected,including HLA-DRB1(45),DRB3(7),DRB4(5),DRB5(7),DQA1(17),DQB1(21),DPA1(10)and DPB1(27).HLA-DRB 1*09:01(17.09％),15:01(10.72％);DRB3*02:02(25.99％),03:01(10.18％);DRB4*01:03(36.46％);DRB5*01:01(15.42％);DQA1*01:02(20.01％),03:02(17.19％);DQB1*03:01(19.47％),03:03(17.98％),05:02(11.66％),06:01(10.67％);DPA1*02:02(54.45％),01:03(31.18％)and DPB1*05:01(39.13％),02:01(16.90％)alleles were the most common alleles in Shenzhen Han population(frequencies＞10％).There was no statistical difference between the gene frequencies of HLA-DRB1 and DQB1 loci in our study.The HLA Common and Well-Documented Alleles in China(CWD2.4)(x2=12.68,P＞0.05).94 cases of HLA-DRB1 homozygous samples detected by NGS were retested by PCR-SSOP or SBT method,and one case of allele dropout at HLA-DRB1 locus was found.SBT method confirmed that the allele of DRB1*04:03 was missed.The laboratory internal quality control system was established.Two cases of new alleles were detected and named by WHO Nomenclature Committee for Factors of the HLA System.Conclusion:The HLA genotyping results based on NGS showed a significantly lower ambiguity rate.The HLA class Ⅱ alleles exhibit genetic polymorphism in the Han population of unrelated healthy individuals in Shenzhen.The independent method based on NGS in clinical histocompatibility testing has limitations and requires internal quality control strategies to avoid allele-dropout events.

The cobalt sulphide nickel ternary material(NiCo2S4)prepared by hydrothermal method in this work was combined with multi-walled carbon nanotubes(MWCNT)for constructing an electrochemical sensor for quantitative detection of rutin.The morphology and crystal of the electrochemical materials were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffractometer,and the electrochemical behavior of the glassy carbon electrode(GCE)modified with NiCo2S4/MWCNT composites was investigated.The experimental results showed that the electrochemical redox process of two electrons and two protons occurred on the surface of modified electrode NiCo2S4/MWCNT/GCE.Under the optimized conditions,the linear range for detection of rutin by square-wave voltammetry(SWV)using this sensor was 0.06-14.8 μmol/L and the detection limit was 14.3 nmol/L.The electrochemical sensor was sensitive,simple and low-cost,with good reproducibility and reliable stability,and could be used for detection of rutin in real samples such as compound rutin tablets and color chrysanthemi tablets,with spiked recoveries of 99.5%-102.0%.

OBJECTIVE: To confirm the HLA genotypes of the samples including 4 cases of magnetic bead probe HLA genotyping result pattern abnormality and 3 cases of ambiguous result detected by PCR sequence-specific oligonudeotide probe (SSOP) method. METHODS: All samples derived from HLA high-resolution typing laboratory were detected by PCR-SSOP. A total of 4 samples of magnetic bead probe HLA genotyping result pattern abnormality and 3 samples of ambiguous result were further confirmed by PCR sequence-based typing (SBT) technology and next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology. RESULTS: A total of 4 samples of magnetic bead probe HLA genotyping result pattern abnormality were detected by PCR-SSOP method. The results of SBT and NGS showed that the HLA-A genotype of sample 1 did not match any known genotypes. NGS analysis revealed that the novel allele was different from the closest matching allele A*31:01:02:01at position 154 with G>A in exon 2, which resulting in one amino acid substitution at codon 28 from Valine to Methionine (p.Val28Met). The HLA-C genotype of sample 2 was C*03:119, 06:02, sample 3 was C*03:03, 07:137, and sample 4 was B*55:02, 55:12. A total of 3 samples with ambiguous result were initially detected by PCR-SSOP method. The re-examination results of SBT and NGS showed that the HLA-B genotype of sample 5 was B*15:58, 38:02, sample 6 was DRB1*04:05, 14:101, and sample 7 was DQB1*03:34, 05:02. Among them, alleles C*03:119, C*07:137 and DRB1*14:101 were not included in the Common and Well-documented Alleles (CWD) v2.4 of the Chinese Hematopoietic Stem Cell Donor Database. CONCLUSION The abnormal pattern of HLA genotyping results of magnetic probe by PCR-SSOP method suggests that it may be a rare allele or a novel allele, which needs to be verified by sequencing.

ObjectiveTo explore the effects of dance intervention on cognitive function in children and clarify the design variables of dance intervention protocol. MethodsLiteratures about effects of dance intervention on cognitive function in children were searched in PubMed, Web of Science, EBSCO, Cochrane library, CNKI, VIP and Wanfang Data, with publication dates ranging from inception to June 1, 2022. They were screened and extracted authors, countries, years, samples, study designs, interventions, measurement instruments and outcomes. The Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro) scale was used to assess the methodological quality of included literature. ResultsTen articles were enrolled, which were randomized controlled trial (RCT) and quasi-RCT for typically developing children and developmentally challenged children. The global PEDro score was good. Dance intervention protocol could be divided into four types: dance training course, dance rehabilitation program, dance breaks and aerobic dance. Dance training course was used in the majority of studies. Dance intervention in childhood positively influenced sensorimotor synchronization, attention and executive function. Further studies should pay more attention on the dose-response relationship between dance and cognitive function in children, as well as cognitive load during dance learning. ConclusionWhether short-term or long-term, dance activity is a feasible and effective method to promote sensorimotor synchronization, attention and executive function in children; epecially on the sensorimotor synchronization, attention maintenance time and working memory capacity.

In recent years, the safety problems and events of traditional Chinese medicine represented by liver injury have occurred frequently. In particular, Polygonum multiflorum has been widely used and considered as a "non-toxic" tonic traditional Chinese medicine for thousands of years. However, in recent years, frequent reports of liver injury events have attracted widespread attention at home and abroad, which has made unfavorable impacts on traditional Chinese medicine and its international development. Some scho-lars have found that susceptible genes of P. multiflorum on liver injury lay a scientific foundation for formulating rational comprehensive prevention and control measures for liver injury risk of P. multiflorum and its relevant preparations. But what are the risk signals of adverse reactions of P. multiflorum in clinical application? Spontaneous reporting system is an important way to monitor and find adverse drug reaction(ADR) signals after the drug is launched in the market. It can find the ADR signals in time and effectively, and then effectively prevent and avoid the occurrence of adverse drug events. At present, the data mining technique has gradually become the main method of ADR/adverse event(AE) report analysis and evaluation at home and abroad. Specifically, Bayesian confidence propagation neural network in Bayesian method is a commonly used risk signal early warning analysis method. In this paper, BCPNN method was used to excavate the risk signals of adverse reactions of Xinyuan Capsules, a traditional Chinese medicine preparation containing P. multiflorum, such as nausea, diarrhea, rash, dizziness, vomiting, abdominal pain, headache, liver cell damage, so as to provide evidence-based evidence for clinical safe and rational use of drugs.

Objective:To optimize the processing technology of salt-processed products of Plantaginis Semen with the specific process parameters, and verify the obtained processing technology by pharmacodynamic research, so as to provide experimental basis for the standardized production and quality control of this decoction pieces. Method:Taking composite score of appearance character score, dry extract yield and contents of three components (geniposidic acid, acteoside and isoacteoside) as index, the analytic hierarchy process (AHP)-criteria importance through intercrieria correlation (CRITIC) mixed weighting method was used to determine the weight coefficient of each index. Based on single factor tests, the response surface method was used to investigate the effects of frying time, frying temperature, salt amount and water amount on the processing technology of salt-processed products of Plantaginis Semen, and the processing technology was verified by diuretic experiment with furosemide tablets as the positive drug (administration dose of 0.01 g·kg^-1). Result:The weight coefficients of geniposidic acid content, acteoside content, appearance character score, isoacteoside content and dry extract yield were 0.319, 0.193, 0.207, 0.273 and 0.008, respectively. The optimal process parameters were as following：fried at 150-180 ℃ for 10 min (obtained from the single factor tests), 100 g of Plantaginis Semen sprayed evenly with 2 g of salt (2 g of salt dissolved in 20 mL of water), and fried at 150-180 ℃ for 15 min. Compared with the blank group, both of the raw products group and the salt-processed products group could significantly increase the secretion of urine volume (P<0.01), but the excretion of Na⁺ in the urine of rats in the salt-processed products group was significantly higher than that in the raw products group (P<0.05). Conclusion:The optimized processing technology is simple and feasible, which can provide reference for standardizing the industrial production of salt-processed products of Plantaginis Semen. At the same time, combined with inherent quality and appearance of the salt-processed products, and verified by pharmacodynamic test, the obtained results are reasonable and reliable, which can be used for quality control of this decoction pieces.
