A 11-year old female patient with severe thalassemia, receipt a lentivirus-based cell and gene therapy (CGT) therapy in Shenzhen Children′s Hosptial on July 27th, 2021. At the two follow-up visits after discharge, patient were continuously tested positive for HIV screening through HIV Ag/Ab Combo assay (chemiluminescence Immunoassay), and the viral load results of HIV-1 nucleic acid testing (NAT) were both>5 000 copies/ml. The patient can be diagnosed with HIV infection according to the National Guideline for Detection of HIV/AIDS(2020 Revised Edition). The thorough investigation findings and supplementary experiment results indicated that the false-positive HIV-1 NAT results was caused by cross-reactivity between the target sites detected by conventional HIV-1 NAT reagents and the lentiviral vectors fragments integrated into the genome of patient′s hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells. In conclusion, it is important for laboratories to select appropriate HIV-1 NAT testing platforms which won′t cause cross-reactivity for the testing of samples from patients who have been treated with HIV-derived vectors. It is also recommended to design and develop NAT testing platforms with multiple target regions labeled by different fluorescents for HIV NAT supplementation experiment to reduce the risk of false-positive diagnoses of HIV infection.

This study searched the clinical researches on traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for cardiovascular diseases registered in Chinese Clinical Trial Registry and the US Clinical Trial Registry, the cardiovascular disease-related studies funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China, as well as those published in China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang database, VIP.com, China Biology Medicine disc (CBMdisc), Embase, Medline, Cochrane Library, and other databases published cardiovascular disease-related studies from 1 January 2021 to 30 June 2023. In order to analyse and evaluate the research progress of TCM treatment for coronary heart disease, hypertension, heart failure, and arrhythmia, this study aimed at recent research hotspots and research direction. It is found that the research on TCM for cardiovascular diseases was gradually deepening and the high-quality evidence continued to emerge. It is believed that studies related to the prevention and treatment of common cardiovascular diseases by TCM reflected the multi-angle integration of modern technology and pattern differentiation and treatment, closer integration of clinical and basic research, and further optimisation of pattern identification and interventions. On this basis, the research programme and implementation process should be further standardized, and the translation of research results should be emphasized to promote the standardized application and promotion of TCM diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases.

Objective:To learn about the iodine nutritional status of children aged 8 to 10 years in Xiamen City after the reform of salt industry system, and to provide scientific basis for reasonable prevention and control of iodine deficiency disorders.Methods:From 2017 to 2019, 6 districts were selected each year in Xiamen City 5 sampling districts were divided according to the oriation of east, west, south, north and center in each district. One town (street, hereinafter refered as to town) was selected from each sampling district. One primary school was selected from each town. For each primary school, at least 40 non-boarding children aged 8 to 10 years (age balanced, half male and half female) were selected. Edible salt samples in the households and random urine samples of children aged 8 to 10 years were collected, and salt iodine and urinary iodine contents were measured, while thyroid volume was examined by B-ultrasound.Results:From 2017 to 2019, the coverage rate of iodized salt in Xiamen City was 97.34% (1 206/1 239), 96.89% (1 214/1 253), and 93.33% (1 175/1 259), respectively; the consumption rate of qualified iodized salt was 96.13% (1 191/1 239), 95.61% (1 198/1 253), and 91.58% (1 153/1 259), respectively; the median urinary iodine was 182.90, 182.81, 164.00 μg/L, respectively. The prevalence of goiter of boys and girls was 1.01% (19/1 889) and 2.26% (42/1 862), respectively.Conclusions:After the reform of salt industry system, the iodine nutritional status of children aged 8 to 10 years is generally at an appropriate level in Xiamen City. However, the consumption rate of qualified iodized salt is reduced, which increases the risk of iodine deficiency for residents. Therefore, we should strengthen the propaganda of scientific iodine supplement, maintain a high consumption rate of qualified iodized salt, and prevent the harm of iodine deficiency.

Objective:To develop a single-tube one-step multiplex nested real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay for the simultaneous detection of 2019-nCoV, influenza A virus, influenza B virus and internal-control with human-derived gene.Methods:This study included 30 positive specimens for 2019-nCoV nucleic acid detection and 336 screening specimens collected from the arrivals at Guangzhou Baiyun Airport between February 2020 and February 2022. Sixty-four positive specimens of other respiratory pathogens were also collected from the arrivals at Guangzhou Baiyun Airport during the three-year period before the occurrence of COVID19 outbreak in 2020, and 7 positive viral strains of respiratory pathogens were provided by collaborative laboratories. In order to establish a set of multiplex nested real-time RT-PCR assay, a group of primers and probe combinations for a multiplex nested real-time RT-PCR was designed and screened according to a selection of nucleotide conserved regions of the ORF and N genes of 2019-nCoV and the M gene of influenza A and B viruses, while nested amplification primers and probe for the internal-control with human-derived gene were introduced. Then the prepared pseudovirus-positive quality control and sample discs were applied to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity. Clinical specimens were performed to validate the applicability of the method.Results:The results show that the established one-step multiplex nested real-time RT-PCR assay can specifically detect 2019-nCoV and influenza A and B viruses, with the limit-of-detection of about 125 copies/ml for 2019-nCoV and about 250 copies/ml for influenza A and B viruses. Totally 101 positive samples of various respiratory pathogens were detected, showing that the detection sensitivities of 2019-nCoV and influenza A and B viruses were 96.67%, 92.86% and 96.15%, respectively, with the specificity of 100%. No false-positive detection was found in the applied detection of more than 300 clinical samples.Conclusions:A one-step multiplex nested real-time RT-PCR assay for 2019-nCoV, influenza A and B viruses and human-derived gene internal-control was developed. The assay has good sensitivity and specificity and can be used for rapid screening of 2019-nCoV and influenza A and B viruses in high-volume samples.

OBJECTIVE:To stu dy the improvem ent effect and mechanism of Guizhi fuling pill (GZFLP) on rats with phlegm-dampness type polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).METHODS:Totally fifty female SD rats with regular estrous cycle were randomly divided into blank control group (n=10) and model group (n=40). The model group received letrozole intragastrically [1 mg/(kg·d),for 21 d ] to induce phlegm-damp PCOS rat model. Forty model rats were randomly divided into model group ,metformin group [positive control ,0.135 g/(kg·d)] and GZFLP low-dose ,high-dose groups [4.49,17.96 g/(kg· d)],with 10 rats in each group. Each medicine group was given intragastric administration ,once a day ,for 30 consecutive days. Blank control and model group were given intragastric administration of equal volume normal saline.After last medication ,oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT)was used to detect the level of blood glucose in rats at 0,30,60 and 120 min. ELISA assay was used to detect the levels of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH),luteinizing hormone (LH),estradiol(E2)and testosterone (T); body weight ,the weight of uterus ,bilateral ovaries and paragonadal fat were weighed. HE staining was used to observe morphological changes of ovarian tissue sections. RT-PCR method and Western blotting assay were used to detect mRNA and protein expression of CYP 19a1 in ovary and Glut 4 in uterine. RESULTS :Compared with blank control group ,the levels of blood glucose 30,60,120 min after intragastric administration of glucose solution as well as serum levels of LH ,E2 and T were increased significantly in model group (P<0.05);the body weight ,the weight of uterus ,bilateral ovaries and paragonadal fat were increased significantly (P<0.05);the volume of thecal cells increased significantly and showed spherical shape ;the mRNA and protein expression of CYP 19a1 in ovarian tissue and Glut 4 in uterine tissue were decreased significantly (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared with model group ,above indexes of administration groups were improved significantly (P<0.05 or P<0.01);the thickness of theca cell layer and the volume of theca cells in GZFLP low-dose and high-dose groups were also improved. CONCLUSIONS:GZFLP can up-regulate the expression of CYP19a1 in ovary and Glut4 in uterus ,so as to improve the abnormal glucose metabolism in phlegm-dampness type PCOS model rats ,reduce insulin resistance ,lower serum estrogen levels ,and reduce the degree of polycystic changes in ovary ,thereby playing a role in the treatment of PCOS.
