The recombinant human thyroid-stimulating hormone (rhTSH) can be used for differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) preparation before ¹³¹I therapy, and follow-up. Since its approval by the American Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1998, rhTSH has been clinically used in European countries, the United States, and other countries for nearly 30 years. In April 2024, China’s first independently developed rhTSH agent was approved. Based on clinical experience and evidence from domestic and international studies, an expert consensus on the application of rhTSH has been developed following thorough consultations among experts. The consensus offers evidence-based recommendations to guide the appropriate use of rhTSH in clinical practice.

Objective To investigate the decolorization performance and key influencing factors of a novel low temperature plasma(LTP)on crystal violet(CV)simulated wastewater.Methods In this experiment,CV was used as the target pollutant and treated with LTP generated by argon atmospheric pressure plasma jet;the absorbance(A590)and chemical oxygen demand(COD)of CV solution were systematically evaluated before and after LTP treatment by adjusting the treatment volume,initial pH value,NaCl concentration,addition of Fe 2+and other parameters.The dynamic changes of active particles in the liquid were monitored.Results Compared with those of the control group,the A590 and COD values of LTP treatment groups were significantly reduced(P＜0.05).At the treatment time of 180 s,the decolorization rate and COD removal rate of CV solution reached 62.34％and 50.22％,respectively.Under the same treatment time(＞90 s),the A590 values in the 0.1 mol/L NaCl group,pH=9 or 11 group,and Fe2+group were lower than those in LTP-only treatment group,but the A590 values in the n-butanol group were higher(P＜0.05).The A590 values in 2 mL or 3 mL group were higher than those in 1 mL group(P＜0.05).Compared with CV solution treated with LTP,the H2O2 content in the activated water was higher while the NO3content was significantly lower than those in CV solutions(P＜0.05).Conclusion LTP has an efficient decolorization ability for CV solution.The decolorization of CV solution could be promoted by NaCl addition,Fe2+inclusion or high pH values,but was inhibited by the increase in treatment volume or the addition of n-butanol.The?OH and H2O2 generated by LTP played a key role in the decolorization process.

Objective To compare the induction effects of direct treatment with low-temperature plasma(LTP)and treatment with plasma-activated medium(PAM)on immunogenic cell death(ICD)of melanoma cells.Methods After direct treatment of melanoma cell line B16F10 with LTP and treatment of it with PAM for 24 hours,cell viability was detected by MTT assay.Flow cytometry was used to detect cell apoptosis and the expression of calreticulin(CRT)on the cell surface.The adenosine triphosphate(ATP)content in the culture medium was detected by an ATP detection kit.The content of high-mobility group box 1(HMGB1)in the cell culture medium was detected by ELISA.B16F10 cells treated with LTP were co-cultured with immature dendritic cells(DC)DC2.4 cell line,and flow cytometry was used to detect DC surface molecules CD80 and CD86.Results Compared with the control group,both direct treatment and indirect treatment could lead to a decrease in the viability of B16F10 cells,an increase in the apoptosis rate,an increase in intracellular ROS,an increase in CRT expression,and an increase in the secretion of ATP and HMGB1(P＜0.05).At the same treatment time,the expression of CRT and the release of ATP in B16F10 cells directly treated with LTP were higher than those indirectly treated with PAM(P＜0.05).Compared with the DC2.4 group,the expression proportion of the DC cell maturation marker molecule CD80 was significantly increased in LTP-120s group,LTP-180s group,PAM-120s group,and PAM-180s group.The expression proportion of the DC cell maturation marker molecule CD86 was significantly increased in LTP-120s group,LTP-180s group,and PAM-180s group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion Both direct treatment with LTP and indirect treatment with PAM can induce ICD in melanoma cells.The direct treatment with LTP has a better induction effect.

Objective To satisfy the normalized disinfection in the orthopedic ward,an air sterilizer based on low-temperature plasma has been developed to investigate its sterilization results in a dynamic environment of hospitalization where patients,companions and medical workers are involved.Methods This study took an orthopedics ward in the Secondary Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University,as the research object,where a home-made low-temperature plasma air sterilizer was utilized.A six-stage viable Andersen cascade impactor was used to sample the natural bacteria in the ward before and after machine operation for three hours.The species and quantity of bacteria in the ward were analyzed.Results The ozone concentration in the indoor dynamic environment decreased to below 5 ppbv.After three-hour disinfection,the elimination rate of natural bacteria reached 92.35％.The final colony forming unit decreased to～150 CFU/m3;the extinction rates of Staphylococcus hominis,Bacillus cereus,molds,and Micrococcus luteus were 90.48％,80.90％,87.50％,and 92.82％respectively.Even all Haemophilus massiliensis disappeared after two-hour treatment.Conclusion Intermittent disinfection of the dynamic environment in the ward using low-temperature plasma synergistic catalyst has enabled the indoor ozone concentration to reach the first-level national standard line,effectively suppressing secondary pollution caused by ozone leakage while efficiently killing suspended microorganisms in the air,which is close to the disinfection level Ⅰenvironment specified in Hygienic Standard for Disinfection in Hospitals(GB 15982-2012).The results also show that the plasma catalytic synergistic disinfection and sterilization has the technical advantages of efficient disinfection and human-machine coexistence,which can ensure indoor air quality safety,reduce the workload of nursing staff,and thus is an effective method to assist or even replace the existing physical and chemical means.

Objective To explore the plasma-activated medium(PAM)produced by low temperature plasma(LTP)on the proliferation and angiogenesis of human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs)so as to provide theoretical basis for the future use of PAM to promote wound healing and inhibit tumor angiogenesis.Methods HUVECs were selected as the in vitro research model.The PAM-containing medium after LTP treatment for different time points(0 s,15 s,30 s,45 s,60 s,and 75 s)was used for intervention.The influence of PAM on HUVECs viability was assessed using the MTT assay and cell cycle analysis.The effects of PAM on angiogenesis were examined through angiogenesis experiments.Intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species(ROS)were measured using fluorescence probes.A melanoma mouse model was established,and CD31 expression was detected by immunohistochemistry.Results As the treatment time increased,the intracellular levels of ROS also elevated.PAM derived from LTP exhibited a bidirectional effect on angiogenesis in HUVECs.Compared to the control group(0 s),low-dose treatments(15 s and 30 s)enhanced HUVECs viability,while high-dose treatments(45 s,60 s,and 75 s)significantly decreased cell viability(P＜0.05).The proportion of HUVECs in the S phase was significantly increased in the PAM-15 s and PAM-30 s groups,but markedly decreased in the PAM-45 s,PAM-60 s,and PAM-75 s groups,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).The HUVECs tube formation ability was enhanced in the 15 s and 30 s PAM groups,but diminished in the PAM-45 s,PAM-60 s,and PAM-75 s groups,characterized by the decreased numbers of vascular nodes,intersections,meshes,and branching points(P＜0.05).After PAM treatment in the melanoma mouse model,the control group exhibited widespread distribution of CD31 in tumor tissue,while the PAM-5 min and PAM-10 min groups displayed reduced distribution of CD31.Conclusion Short-term exposure to PAM enhances HUVECs proliferation and angiogenesis,whereas prolonged exposure suppresses cell viability and inhibits angiogenesis.

【Objective】 Escherichia coli phage (ECP) and Staphylococcus aureus phage (SAP) isolated from sewage were used as research objects, and their biological characteristics were analyzed to provide new experimental materials for the application of phages. 【Methods】 ECP and SAP were purified and cultured by double-layer agar method. Then a series of biological characteristics of these two phages were preliminarily analyzed by electron microscope observation, optimal multiplicity of infection (MOI) test, one-step growth curve test, temperature, pH, chloroform and ultraviolet sensitivity tests, respectively. 【Results】 The results of biological characteristics showed that ECP and SAP were both virulent phages, belonging to myoviridac family. Their optimal MOI was 10^-1, and they had strong resistance to ultraviolet light. The cleavage volume of ECP was 76.3 PFU/cell, while that of SAP was 8.3 PFU/cell. ECP had a wide range of temperature tolerance and could stably survive at 30-50 ℃, while SAP was more sensitive to temperature and could be completely inactivated at 50 ℃ for 1 h. ECP could maintain a good lysis activity in the range of pH 5-11, while SAP in the range of pH 6-9. ECP had strong resistance to chloroform and was non-membranous phage, while SAP was more sensitive to chloroform and was a membranous phage. 【Conclusion】 ECP and SAP are both virulent phages and have strong resistance to ultraviolet light. The lysability, temperature, pH, and chloroform tolerance of ECP are stronger than those of SAP.
