The traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） myocardial infarction （MI） unit is a standardized， regulated， and continuous integrated care unit guided by TCM theory and built upon existing chest pain centers or emergency care units. This unit emphasizes multidisciplinary collaboration and forms a restructured clinical entity without altering current departmental settings， offering comprehensive diagnostic and therapeutic services with full participation of TCM in the treatment of MI. Its core medical model is patient-centered and disease-focused， providing horizontally integrated TCM-based care across multiple specialties and vertically constructing a full-cycle treatment unit for MI， delivering prevention， treatment， and rehabilitation during the acute， stable， and recovery phases. Additionally， the unit establishes a TCM-featured education and prevention mechanism for MI to guide patients in proactive health management， reduce the incidence of myocardial infarction， and improve quality of life.

In recent years,the incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)keeps increasing in China,and seriously affects people's health.The M1/M2 polarization of macrophages is unbalanced in patients with T2DM,which is manifested by the increase of pro-inflammatory M1 macrophages and the decrease of anti-inflammatory M2 macrophages.Macrophage polarization imbalance can cause insulin resistance or damage pancreatic islets β cells through various ways.Adjusting the polarization of macrophages plays a therapeutic role in T2DM.This article reviews the research progress on the relationship between macrophage polarization and T2DM.

Vaccination is a main measure for protecting chickens against Marek's disease,while it is not able to suppress the infection,proliferation,transmission,and virulence enhancement on Marek's disease virus.Inhibiting the proliferation of Marek's disease virus in chicken is therefore an im-portant option for enhancing defense effectiveness.In this study,a compound,DUBs-IN-1,was found to inhibit the activity of MDV049,a protease encoded by Marek's disease virus,via screening a protease inhibitor library using MDV049 as target and ubiquitin probe.Molecular docking re-vealed that DUBs-IN-1 can interact with the residues which formed the catalytic pocket of MDV049,blocking the interaction between Ub substrate and the catalytic center of MDV049,then suppress the activity of MDV049 with competitive inhibition.Using the CPE model,it was found that DUBs-IN-1 at the concentration of 0.35 and 0.70 μmol/L significantly inhibited the CPE in-duced by Marek's disease virus in CEF cells.Quantitative analysis revealed that DUBs-IN-1 inhibi-ted the proliferation of Marek's disease virus in CEF cells(P＜0.01).Furthermore,it was found that the administration of 80 and 150 pg/(kg·d)of DUBs-IN-1 in chicken infected by Marek's disease virus significantly inhibited the proliferation of MDV in T cells(P＜0.01).In summary,this study demonstrated that the compound DUBs-IN-1 is able to inhibit the proliferation of Marek's disease virus in chicken cells,laying a theoretical and practical foundation for further de-velopment of the drugs against Marek's disease virus.

Objective:To investigate the expression of the B cell ectopic gene 2 (BTG2) in the pancreatic cancer tissue and analyze its relationship with the clinicopathological features and prognosis.Methods:46 pairs of pancreatic cancer tissues and corresponding adjacent tissues kept in paraffin in the pathology department, and 9 fresh pancreatic cancer tissues and corresponding adjacent tissues resected by surgery in Department of Pancreatic Surgery of Sinopharm Dongfeng General Hospital from June 2015 to December 2020 were collected. BTG2 gene expression in 46 pairs of pancreatic cancer tissues and corresponding adjacent tissues were detected by immunohistochemical staining, and high and low BTG2 expression groups were divided. BTG2 gene expression in 9 fresh pancreatic cancer tissues and corresponding adjacent tissues were detected by RT-PCR. The correlation between BTG2 protein expression level and clinicopathological features was analyzed. Furthermore, the survival curve and death risk curve were drawn using the Kaplan-Meier method, and the Cox regression hazards model was applied for the univariate and multivariate analysis of the factors affecting the prognosis of pancreatic cancer.Results:29 of 46 (63.04%) pancreatic cancer tissues had high BTG2 expression, and 38(82.61%) of corresponding adjacent tissues had high BTG2 expression; and BTG2 high expression rate of adjacent tissues was significantly higher than that of cancer tissues. Three out of 9 pancreatic cancer tissues were highly differentiated, and six cases had medium-and low differentiation. The BTG2 expression of highly differentiated pancreatic carcinoma was significantly higher than that of moderately and poorly differentiated carcinoma tissues [(0.66±0.07 vs 0.24±0.18); the expression level of adjacent tissues was significantly higher than that of cancer tissues (1.00±0.00 vs 0.38±0.30), and all differences were statistically significant (all P values <0.001). Low BTG2 expression in pancreatic cancer was associated with low tumor differentiation and vascular invasion (all P values <0.05), but was not correlated with tumor location, volume, lymph node metastasis, CA19-9 level and postoperative liver metastasis. The median survival of high BTG2 expression group was significantly longer than that of low BTG2 expression group (525 d vs 266 d, P<0.001). Among patients with survival time ≥300 d, the survival time was significantly higher in the high BTG2 expression group than in the BTG2 low expression group (616±135d vs 426±113 d), and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.001). Among patients with survival time <300 d, there was no significant difference between BTG2 high and low expression group. The results of the univariate analysis showed that tumor differentiation degree, vascular invasion, BTG2 expression, CA19-9 levels, and postoperative liver metastasis were all associated with the prognosis of pancreatic cancer. The results of the multivariate analysis showed that BTG2 expression level ( HR=2.572, 95% CI1.140-5.802, P=0.023), vascular invasion ( HR=0.023, 95% CI0.072-0.572, P=0.003) and postoperative liver metastasis ( HR=0.240, 95% CI0.102-0.564, P<0.001) were independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of patients with pancreatic cancer. Conclusions:BTG2 expression in pancreatic cancer tissues was significantly lower than that in adjacent tissues, and its low expression was associated with strong aggressiveness, low differentiation degree and poor prognosis of pancreatic cancer. The effect of BTG2 on the prognosis in pancreatic cancer patients was mainly in the long term.

Objective:To investigate the effects of hemophagocytic syndrome also known as hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) on the clinical features and therapeutic efficacy of patients with Epstein-Barr virus-positive T-cell lymphoma (EBV-TCL).Methods:The clinical data of patients with EBV-TCL diagnosed by pathological examination in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from November 2015 to August 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. According to whether they were accompanied with HLH at the time of onset, patients were divided into HLH group (10 cases) and non-HLH group (13 cases), and the clinical features and prognosis of the two groups were compared. The curative effects of different treatment methods and patients with different plasma EBV-DNA titers were compared.Results:Among 23 patients, 3 cases (13.0%) were in Ann Arbor stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ, 20 cases (87.0%) were in stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ; the International Prognostic Index (IPI) score was 1 point in 3 cases (13.0%), 2 points in 4 cases (17.4%), 3 points in 8 cases (34.8%), 4 points in 8 cases (34.8%). In the HLH group, there were 2 cases of aggressive NK-cell leukemia and 3 cases of childhood systemic EBV-TCL. There were no cases of above two pathological types in the non-HLH group. In the HLH group, the proportions of patients with fever, bone marrow invasion, IPI score > 2 points, and EBV-DNA > 10 4 copies/ml were higher than those in the non-HLH group (all P < 0.05). The objective response rate (complete remission plus partial remission) of all patients after chemotherapy was 47.8% (11/23); there were 3 cases undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in both the HLH group and the non-HLH group, and all achieved objective remission. The objective remission of 7 patients and 10 patients who did not undergo hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in the HLH group and non-HLH group after lymphoma chemotherapy had 0 case and 5 cases, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( P = 0.044). In the chemotherapy alone group, 5 of 17 patients had objective remission, 6 patients in the chemotherapy plus transplantation group had objective remission, and the difference was statistically significant ( P = 0.039). Among 16 patients whose plasma EBV-DNA titers turned negative, 11 patients had objective remission, and 7 patients whose plasma EBV-DNA titers were continuously positive had no objective remission, and the difference was statistically significant ( P = 0.001). The 1-year overall survival rate of all patients was 69.3%, and the 2-year overall survival rate was 52.0%. In the HLH group, the 1-year and 2-year overall survival rates of 7 patients receiving chemotherapy alone and 3 patients receiving chemotherapy plus transplantation were 42.9% and 66.7%, respectively. In the non-HLH group, the 1-year overall survival rates of 10 patients receiving chemotherapy alone and 3 patients receiving chemotherapy plus transplantation were 80.0% and 100.0%, respectively; the 2-year overall survival rates were 26.7% and 100.0%,respectively. The overall survival of patients receiving chemotherapy plus transplantation was better than that of those receiving chemotherapy alone in both the HLH group and the non-HLH group, and differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). Conclusions:The general clinical stage of patients with EBV-TCL is later, and the prognosis of EBV-TCL patients with HLH is worse. The therapeutic efficacy may be related to plasma EBV-DNA titers. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation can improve the remission rate.

Objective:To screen the neutralizing epitope of enterovirus 71 (EV71) and determine the specific minimum amino acid sequence that triggers immunity for providing a theoretical basis for the development of synthetic peptide vaccines.Methods:EV71 neutralizing antibody-specific binding clones were panned and sequenced using a phage display random 12-peptide library to obtain the key sequences of neutralizing epitopes. A series of peptides containing the key sequences with N-terminal acetylation (AC) and C-terminal linking to Keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) were synthesized. Serum samples were collected after immunizing mice with the modified peptides. Then the immunogenicity of the peptides and the neutralizing activity of serum samples were analyzed by Western blot, ELISA and neutralization test.Results:After three rounds of panning, cloning and sequencing, KQEKDL was identified as the key motif. The serum samples collected from the mice immunized with the modified series of peptides containing key motifs had different degrees of binding ability to EV71 and VP1 protein. The serum samples of mice immunized the synthetic peptide containing only the minimum key motif (AC-KQEKDL-KLH) had the strongest response to the other three peptides and EV71 and the highest neutralizing titer.Conclusions:The EV71 neutralizing epitope was successfully screened using the phage display random peptide library. The key motif of KQEKDL might be the specific minimum amino acid sequence that triggered the immune system. This study provides a theoretical basis for better understanding the immune response mechanism, evaluating the immunogenicity of the antigens and further research and development of polypeptide vaccines.

Objective:To investigate the multilocus sequence typing feature of the virulence-associated genes of Staphylococcus aureus(S. aureus) separated from the clinical specimens of a multi-center cohort children in Guangzhou area. Methods:A total number of 412 Staphylococcus aureus strains isolated from 2 059 non-repeated fecal specimens of children by three groups′ researchers in Guangzhou Women and Children′s Medical Center from August 2018 to November 2018. While collecting specimens, patient clinical information is also properly collected and preserved. After extracting the DNA of the strain, the virulence-associated genes were detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), including the staphylococcal enterotoxin (SE) genes ( sea, seb, sec, sed, see) and the Panton-Valentine leucocidin-encoding gene ( pvl).The multi-locus sequence typing (MLST) method was performed to reveal the MLST feature of these genes and the statistical difference were examined by the the χ 2 test. Results:Among the 412 isolates of S. aureus, 256 strains (256/412, 62.1%) contains at least one SE gene. Among the enterotoxin gens, the sec (125/412, 30.3%), seb(98/412, 23.8%)and sea (66/412, 16.0%)genes were the three most prevalent members of SEs. The frequency of pvl gene in Staphylococcus aureus was 18.7%(77/412).Among them, the frequency of Staphylococcus aureus sea gene isolated from patients with gastroenteritis (58/319, 18.2%) was significantly higher than that from the non-gastroenteritis group (8/93, 8.6%)(χ2=4.912, P=0.027). The frequency of Staphylococcus aureus pvl gene isolated from the patients with pneumonia (8/21, 38.1%) was greater than that from the non-pneumonia group (6/47, 12.8%)(χ2=4.252, P=0.039). In addition, the virulence-associated gene of S. aureus was closely related to the specific ST type, 82.4% (28/34) of ST6 carried sea gene, all ST338 and ST59 carried seb gene, 96% (48/50) ST45 carried sec gene, and the pvl gene carrying rate of ST338 was 5/5. Conclusions:The SEA toxin produced by ST6 Staphylococcus aureus may be closely related to the diagnosis of gastroenteritis in children. The frequency of pvl virulence gene in Staphylococcus aureus in children with community-acquired pneumonia was higher than that in the non-pneumonia group, and closely related to the CC59.

Objective:To compare the ability of platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in evaluating the prognosis of patients with TNM stageⅠto Ⅲ gastric cancer.Methods:From May 2001 to December 2013, the clinicopathological data of 645 patients with gastric cancer treated at Harbin Medical University Cancer Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Chi-square test was used to analyze the differences between NLR, and PLR and clinicopathological characteristics of patients. Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test were performed to compare the overall survival of patients. Cox proportional hazards regression model was performed to analyze the prognosis of gastric cancer patients. The ability of NLR and PLR to evaluate the prognosis of gastric cancer was compared by receiver operating characteristic curve.Results:The cutoff values of PLR and NLR were 141.50 and 1.94, respectively. PLR was associated with gender, resection method, maximum diameter of tumor, whether chemotherapy, T-stage, N-stage, TNM stage, tumor location, white blood cell, hemoglobin, albumin, and whether total gastrectomy ( χ2=9.224, 10.577, 28.825, 6.831, 29.059, 28.637, 30.748, 18.023, 24.320, 77.274, 9.021 and 10.745, all P<0.05). NLR were associated with resection method, maximum diameter of tumor, T-stage, N-stage and TNM stage, white blood cell, hemoglobin and albumin ( χ2=14.563, 12.092, 22.697, 44.735, 34.151, 7.949, 9.611 and 7.498, all P<0.05). The results of multivariate analysis showed that resection method, whether chemotherapy, T-stage, N-stage, PLR and whether total gastrectomy were all independent risk factors for gastric cancer patients ( χ2=23.653, 22.023, 16.697, 24.038, 4.110 and 22.364, all P<0.05). The five-year cumulative survival rate of the patients with PLR<141.50 was higher than that of patients with PLR≥141.50 (55.4% vs. 30.5%), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=47.968, P<0.01). The AUC value of PLR in prognostic evaluation of gastric cancer was 0.629, which was higher than that of NLR (0.596, P<0.01). Conclusion:PLR is better than NLR in the prognostic evaluation of gastric cancer patients.
