Hypercoagulable state (HCS) after kidney transplantation is one of the common and serious complications in kidney transplant recipients, which has attracted increasing attention in recent years. HCS refers to the abnormal and excessive activation of blood coagulation function, leading to the increased risk of thrombosis. After kidney transplantation, the combined effects of hemodynamic changes, surgical trauma and severe rejection increase the incidence of HCS, not only raising the risk of thrombosis but also potentially causing graft failure and affecting the postoperative survival rate of patients. This article reviews the influencing factors, clinical manifestations, diagnostic methods and preventive strategies of HCS after kidney transplantation, aiming to provide a theoretical basis for optimizing perioperative management and improving the prognosis of patients.

OBJECTIVE To establish the quality control method of Flueggea suffruticosa. METHODS The microscopical identification and thin layer chromatography (TLC) of F. suffruticosa were carried out, and the mass fractions of moisture, total ash, acid-insoluble ash and alcohol-soluble extracts in F. suffruticosa were measured based on the 2020 version of Chinese Pharmacopoeia (part Ⅳ). The content of securinine in medicinal materials was determined by high performance liquid chromatography. RESULTS The powder of F. suffruticosa was gray-green, with obvious microscopic characteristics such as pores, pollen grains, calcium oxalate cluster crystals, ducts. The results of TLC identification showed that in the chromatograms of 16 batches of medicinal samples, the same color spots were found on the corresponding positions of the chromatograms of securinine, rutin, quercetin and F. suffruticosa control. The average mass fractions of moisture, total ash, acid-insoluble ash and alcohol- soluble extracts in 16 batches of medicinal materials were 9.26%, 6.96%, 1.17% and 28.89%, respectively. The injection volume of securinine in the range of 0.052 4-0.524 0 µg had a good linear relationship with the peak area (R2=0.999 8). RSDs of precision, repeatability and stability (24 h) test were all less than 3% (n=6 or 7). The average recovery of sample was 97.47%, RSD was 1.63% (n=6). The content of securinine in 16 batches of medicinal materials was 1.003-6.872 mg/g. CONCLUSIONS The quality control method of F. suffruticosa is established, and the mass fractions of moisture, total ash and acid-insoluble ash should not exceed 12.0%, 9.0% and 2.0%, respectively; the alcohol-soluble extract should not be less than 20%, and the content of securinine should not be less than 1.00 mg/g.

OBJECTIV E To optimize the s alt-processing technology of Rosa laevigata ,and to study high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)fingerprints and chromaticity values of R. laevigata before and after salt-processing. METHODS The comprehensive scoring method was adopted to optimize the salt-processing technology of R. laevigata using appearance character , moisture and polysaccharide content as index. Fingerprints were established by HPLC method before and after salt-processing ,and chromaticity values (L*,a*,b*)of the powder before and after salt-processing were determined. The multivariate statistical analysis was carried out for raw product and salt-processing product of R. laevigata by using common peak areas and chromaticity values as index. RESULTS The optimal salt-processing technology of R. laevigata was to mix it with appropriate amount of salt water ,place them in the preheated frying wok at 140 ℃,fry them for 25 min,and rotate frying wok 20 times/min. Ten common peaks were calibrated by HPLC fingerprints before and after salt-processing ,and 3 components were identified ,such as gallic acid ,catechin and ellagic acid. The chromaticity values L*,b* and E* changed significantly after salt-processing. The multivariate statistical analysis method could distinguish raw products and salt-processing products into two categories ,in which peaks 1,5,6 and 10 and chromaticity values b* and E* were important characteristic factors. CONCLUSIONS The optimized salt-processing technology is stable and reliable ,and the established fingerprint has good repeatability and stability. Fingerprint and chromaticity values combined with multivariate statistical analysis can provide reference for the identification and quality analysis of R. laevigata before and after salt-processing.

Objective:To study the radiation dose rate and effective dose in ambient environment due to 125I seed implantation in the treatment of the patients suffering abdominal and pelvic tumors, so as to provide reference for occupational protection of different groups. Methods:Within 24 hours after operation, the radiation dose rate to 42 patients with abdominal and pelvic tumor with 125I seed implantation was monitored by using pocket dosimeter. The relationships between the total activity in the implanted particles and the measured dose rate, as well as between the implanted depth and the dose rate under the standard activity, were obtained by curve fitting. According to the formula, the relationship between the dose rate and the warning time was calculated. Results:The dose rates at 30 cm, 50 cm and 100 cm of vertical particle implantation site were (6.92±2.87), (4.10±1.62) and (1.30±0.48) μSv/h, respectively ( χ2=73.71, P<0.05). The dose rates on the left and right sides were (0.378±0.156) and (0.384±0.153) μSv/h at 30 cm, (0.170±0.089) and (0.17±0.086) μSv/h at 50 cm, (0.039 ±0.014) and (0.043±0.017) μSv/h at 100 cm, respectively ( χ2=76.19, 76.33, P<0.05). There was a linear relationship between the dose rate at the vertical particle implantation site and the total activity in the implanted particles, and between the dose rate and the implantation depth under the standard activity. The relationship between the warning time and the dose rate to adults in the same bed, co-workers, minors in the same bed and pregnant women were as follows: t ( d)=-106.616+ 83.779ln D( t), t ( d)=26.556+ 85.933ln D ( t), t( d)=3.088+ 85.017ln D( t). Conclusions:After 125I seed implantation, the radiation dose in the ambient environment is low, ensuring the radiation safety; and the measured dose rate decreases with the decrease in the total activity in the implanted particle and the increase in the implantation depth; at the same time, the warning time for different groups is calculated according to the measured dose rate or the total activity in the implanted particle and the depth of the implanted particle, so as to carry out individualized protection.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors for hemorrhagic transformation (HT) in patients with acute posterior circulation ischemic stroke (PCIS) and its impact on outcomes.Methods:From July 2016 to October 2019, patients admitted to the Department of Neurology, the People's Hospital of Zhengzhou and diagnosed as PCIS were enrolled retrospectively. Their demography, clinical data, laboratory and imaging findings were collected. HT was defined as no intracranial hemorrhage detected by the first head CT/MRI after onset, and intracranial hemorrhage was found during head CT/MRI reexamination within 10 d after onset. Symptomatic HT was defined as intracranial hemorrhage indicated by imaging reexamination and the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score was higher than the baseline. The outcome was evaluated by the modified Rankin Scale at 3 months after onset, and >2 were defined as poor outcome. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify the independent risk factors for HT, symptomatic HT, and poor outcomes. Results:A total of 242 patients with PCIS were enrolled. Their age was 68.02±12.0 years, and 111 were females (45.9%). The baseline median NIHSS score was 5.9 (interquartile range: 3.1-8.8). HT occurred in 19 patients (7.9%), and 14 of them (73.7%) were symptomatic HT. Follow-up at 3 months showed that 74 patients (30.58%) had poor outcomes, of which 12 died. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that higher baseline systolic blood pressure (odds ratio [ OR] 1.076, 95% confidence interval [ CI] 1.021-1.135, P=0.006; OR 1.161, 95% CI 1.087-1.240, P<0.001) and larger infarct volume ( OR 31.293, 95% CI 4.542-215.592, P<0.001; OR 2.084, 95% CI 1.414-3.073, P<0.001) were the independent risk factors for HT and symptomatic HT. The higher NIHSS score ( OR 1.511, 95% CI 1.307-1.746; P<0.001), diabetes mellitus ( OR 2.041, 95% CI 1.054-3.952; P=0.034) and symptomatic HT ( OR 4.514, 95% CI 1.458-13.979; P=0.009) were the independent risk factors for poor outcomes. Conclusions:HT is rare in patients with PCIS. Higher baseline systolic blood pressure and larger infarct volume are the independent risk factors for HT in patients with PCIS. Higher baseline NIHSS scores, diabetes mellitus, and symptomatic HT are the independent risk factors for poor outcomes in patients with PCIS.

Objective: To investigate the anti-tumor effect of CTL cells on colon cancer xenograft in nude mice after knocking out the immune check point CTLA-4 by CRISPR/Cas9 technology. Methods: A specific small guide RNA (sgRNA) for CTLA-4 was designed to construct sgRNA/Cas9 plasmid, which was then transfected into CTL using a lentiviral vector to obtain CTL cells with CTLA-4 deletion (CTLA-4 KO CTL). The transfection efficiency of the plasmid and the deletion efficiency of CTLA-4 were verified. BALB/c nude mice were randomly divided into two groups to prophylactically inoculate CTLA-4 KO CTL (experimental group) or CTL (control group); 3 days later, the animals of two groups were inoculated with colon cancer cell line LS174-T to observe the tumor formation rate and tumor formation time. After constructing colon cancer xenograft model in nude mice, the animals were randomly divided into two groups, respectively treated with CTLA-4 KO CTL (experimental group) and CTL (control group) cells to observe the tumor growth volume and survival time of mice. The serum levels of TNF-α and IFN-γ in nude mice were detected. Results: sgRNAwas designed and CRSIPR/Cas9 system with lentivirus as vector was successfully constructed. CTL cells were transfected with the established CRSIPR/ Cas9 system, and the highest transfection efficiency was up to (28.80±0.62)%. After transfection, the deletion efficiency of CTLA-4 was detected by Flow cytometry. The CTLA-4 expression of CTLA-4 KO CTL group was significantly lower than that of CTL group [(0.91±0.25)% vs (42.70±2.72)%, P<0.05]. In prophylactic assay, the formation rate of colon cancer xenografts in the experimental group was significantly lower than that in the control group(33.33%vs100%,P<0.05). In treatment assay, the tumor volume in the experimental group was significantly inhibited compared with the control group ([503±23.9] vs [911.2±51.4] mm3, P<0.05), and the survivaltimeoftheexperimentalgroupwassignificantlyprolonged (mediansurvivaltime:78dvs42d,P<0.05); Moreover, the secretion levels of serumTNF-α([268.93±17.04]pg/mlvs[148.26±20.07]pg/ml,P<0.05) and IFN-γ(315.38±18.67 pg/ml vs 202.92±29.32 pg/ml, P<0.05) in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group. Conclusions: The lentiviral vector CRSIPR/Cas9 system is an effective gene editing method; its successful deletion of CTLA-4 in CTL cells can significantly inhibit the tumor formation rate of colon cancer xenografts in nude mice and enhance the anti-tumor effect of CTLon colon cancer xenografts.

Objective To investigate the antimicrobial resistance of clinical bacterial isolates in Peking Union Medical College Hospital (PUMCH) in 2017. Methods A total of 9 515 non-duplicate clinical isolates were collected from January 1 to December 31, 2017. Disc diffusion test (Kirby-Bauer method) and E-test method were employed to determine antimicrobial susceptibility. Results Gram-negative bacilli and gram-positive cocci accounted for 68.2% and 31.8%, respectively among the 9 515 clinical isolates. Methicillin-resistant strains in S. aureus (MRSA) and coagulase-negative Staphylococcus (MRCNS) accounted for 25.6% and 73.3%, respectively. Extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) -producing strains accounted for 47.6% (877/1 842), 27.6% (335/1 213) and 33.0% (59/179) in E. coli, Klebsiella spp (K. pneumoniae and K. oxytoca) and P. mirabilis, respectively. Enterbacteriaceae strains were still highly susceptible to carbapenems, with an overall resistance rate of ≤ 3.8%. The resistance rates of K. pneumoniae to imipenem and meropenem were 8.5% and 8.2%, respectively. About 72.7% and 70.4% of A. baumannii isolateswere resistant to imipenem and meropenem. The resistance rate of P. aeruginosa to imipenem and meropenem was 14.8% and 10.0%, respectively. The prevalence of extensively drug-resistant strains in A. baumannii, P. aeruginosa and K. pneumoniae was 31.7% (239/753), 1.0% (10/1 035), and 3.0% (33/1 117), respectively. Conclusions The common bacterialisolates show various level of resistance to antimicrobial agents. Laboratory staff should improve communication with clinicians to prevent the spread of resistant strains.

Objective To explore the feasibility of needle-embedding therapy in the treatment of chronic myocardial ischemia using a miniature pig model established by placement of an Ameroid constrictor at the left anterior descending branch (LAD) of coronary artery in Bama miniature pigs during surgery. Methods The miniature pig model of chronic myocardial ischemia was established by placement of an Ameroid constrictor at the left anterior descending branch of the left coronary artery in Bama miniature pigs. The pig models were randomly divided into the treatment group (the"Neiguan " group) and the control group (the "Zusanli " group), and were treated with needle- embedding electroacupuncture at the"Neiguan" (PC6) and "Zusanli" (ST36) acupoints, respectively. Myocardial samples were taken at 6 weeks after surgery for light and electron microscopic examinations. Results Gross pathology showed that ischemic area in the myocardium appeared in both experimental groups. The ischemic area in the "Zusanli "group was larger than that of the"Neiguan"group. Histopathology showed that the acupuncture treatment at the"Neiguan"acupoint reduced the ischemic injury in the pig myocardial tissues. Ultrastructural observation of the myocardium showed mitochondrial vacuolization in cardiomyocytes and myocardial fibrosis in both groups. Conclusions Acupuncture therapy at the"Neiguan"acupoint of pericardial channel may exert protective effect on the myocardial ischemia by reducing the ischemia-injury of cardiomyocytes, but can not inhibit the already existed ischemia-induced cardiomyocytic injuries. Our findings suggest that the establishment of miniature pig model of chronic myocardial ischemia by surgically placing an Ameroid constrictor on the left anterior descending branch of left coronary artery and the needle-embedding in acupoints is feasible for the treatment of chronic myocardial ischemia in this pig model.
