[Objective] To investigate the molecular prevalence and genotype of human parvovirus B19(B19) among blood donors in Lanzhou, and provide data support for monitoring the positive rate of B19 DNA in local blood donors. [Methods] A total of 7 644 blood donor samples collected from January to September 2022 were randomly screened using real-time fluorescent PCR, resulting in 23 samples testing positive for B19 DNA. The characteristics of the B19 DNA reactive donors including gender, age, blood donation recruitment and promotion mode, and donation frequency were analyzed using SPSS 22.0. Additionally, the VP1 gene fragment of B19 DNA reactive samples was sequenced and an evolutionary tree was constructed by the N-J method. [Results] The results showed that the positive rate of B19 DNA in Lanzhou was 0.30%, and the positive population mainly consisted of female individuals aged 18-30 years old who were first-time blood donors; furthermore, genotype 1a was identified as predominant. [Conclusion] The positive rate of B19 DNA is low among blood donors in Lanzhou, with genotype 1a being predominant. It is recommended to periodically monitor the B19 prevalence in blood donors and enhance prevention and control measures, thus improving blood quality and safety.

Objective:
To explore the treatment plan for severe papillary defects in the aesthetic zone caused by severe periodontitis, providing a reference for clinical practice.
Methods :
A patient with severe periodontitis leading to severe papillary defects in the upper anterior teeth from 12 to 23 was treated using interdental tunnel technique combined with personalized connective tissue grafting for periodontal plastic surgery, and stable soft tissue augmentation was achieved. Resin restoration was conducted to modify the crown shape of the aesthetic zone teeth, reconstruct white aesthetics, guide the shaping of the gingival papillae, reduce “black triangles,” and enhance the patient’s confidence in smiling.
Results :
The patient’s periodontal condition and the regeneration of soft tissues in the aesthetic zone were good, and the smile aesthetics were restored. After a 3-year follow-up, the gingival morphology, color, and texture were good, and the effect was stable. The literature review indicates that for papillary defects in the aesthetic zone, analysis should be conducted based on the following aspects: whether a defect is present in periodontal hard and soft tissues, crown shape, and the distance from the most apical part of the crown contact area to the top of the alveolar crest. Based on the analysis of aesthetic defects and surgical indications, a personalized treatment plan should be designed.
Conclusion
For patients with obvious papillary defects in the aesthetic zone due to the reduction of periodontal support tissues caused by severe periodontitis, factors such as periodontal hard and soft tissue defects, crown shape, and the distance from the most apical part of the crown contact area to the top of the alveolar crest should be fully considered, and a personalized treatment plan should be formulated after multidisciplinary joint consultation.

Objective To compare the clinical effects of segmentectomy and lobectomy for ≤2 cm lung adenocarcinoma with micropapillary and solid subtype negative by intraoperative frozen sections. Methods The patients with adenocarcinoma who received segmentectomy or lobectomy in multicenter from June 2020 to March 2021 were included. They were divided into two groups according to a random number table, including a segmentectomy group (n=119, 44 males and 75 females with an average age of 56.6±8.9 years) and a lobectomy group (n=115, 43 males and 72 females with an average of 56.2±9.5 years). The clinical data of the patients were analyzed. Results There was no significant difference in the baseline data between the two groups (P>0.05). No perioperative death was found. There was no statistical difference in the operation time (111.2±30.0 min vs. 107.3±34.3 min), blood loss (54.2±83.5 mL vs. 40.0±16.4 mL), drainage duration (2.8±0.6 d vs. 2.6±0.6 d), hospital stay time (3.9±2.3 d vs. 3.7±1.1 d) or pathology staging (P>0.05) between the two groups. The postoperative pulmonary function analysis revealed that the mean decreased values of forced vital capacity and forced expiratory volume in one second percent predicted in the segmentectomy group were significantly better than those in the lobectomy group (0.2±0.3 L vs. 0.4±0.3 L, P=0.005; 0.3%±8.1% vs. 2.9%±7.4%, P=0.041). Conclusion Segmentectomy is effective in protecting lungs function, which is expected to improve life quality of patients.

Objective:To analyze the dynamic changes and possible influencing factors of anti-2019 novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) neutralizing antibody in confirmed Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) cases.Methods:Microneutralization was used to test the anti-2019-nCoV neutralizing antibody. Excel 2007 and SPSS 22.0 were used for data processing and analysis.Results:There were 420 serum samples collected from 155 confirmed COVID-19 cases. These serum samples contained acute phase serum, convalescent phase serum and serum from cases recovered for about six months. The sampling time was 0-221 days after the onset of COVID-19. The geometric mean titer (GMT) of anti-2019-nCoV neutralizing antibody was 1∶13 at 1 week, and 1∶31 at 2 week. The titers of anti-2019-nCoV neutralizing antibody of individual cases were still<1∶4 on the 15 th day. The GMT was all over 1: 52 (13×4) at 6-32 week. Taking 1: 64 as the cut-off point, the serum anti-2019-nCoV neutralizing antibody positive rates was 30.56% in acute phase serum samples (0-14 d, 0-2 w), 82.31% in convalescent phase serum samples (36-63 d, 6-9 w) and 86.52% in serum samples from cases recovered for about six months (183-210 d, 27-30 w). Statistical analysis showed that there was no significant difference in anti-2019-nCoV neutralizing antibody levels at the other weeks except 1-2 week ( χ2=9.270, P=0.931), there was no statistically differences in gender, age and occupation of the cases, and also between the normal and mild cases ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The serum anti-2019-nCoV neutralizing antibody level is only statistically correlated with the disease progression of COVID-19, and maintain the protective level from 3 to 30 week.

Objective:To investigate the characteristics of pulmonary function changes and its possible influencing factors in patients with pneumoconiosis.Methods:In December 2019, pneumoconiosis patients hospitalized in four departments of occupational diseases in Hunan Occupational Disease Prevention and Control Hospital from December 2015 to December 2016 were selected as subjects. Lung function including forced vital capacity (FVC) , FVC%, forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) , FEV1%, forced expiratory volume in one second / forced vital capacity (FEV1/FVC) , diffusion capacity of the lung foe carbon monoxide% (DLCO%) 、maximal expiratory rlow 75% (MEF75%) , maximal expiratory rlow 50% (MEF50%) and maximal expiratory rlow 25% (MEF25%) were tested, and collect their age, occupation history, smoking history and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Self Rating Questionnaire (CAT) score. They were followed up after 3 years to analyze the 3-year decline rates of lung function indicators and their relationship with stage of pneumoconiosis, age, smoking index, baseline values of lung function and CAT score.Results:265 cases were studied effectively. After 3 years, the values of 9 lung function indicators of pneumoconiosis patients were significantly lower than those of 3 years ago ( P<0.05) . The decline rates of FEV1%, FEV1/FVC, MEF75%, MEF50% and MEF25% were positively correlated with the stage of pneumoconiosis ( r=0.250, 0.290, 0.219, 0.280, 0.141, P<0.05) . The decline rates of FEV1% and MEF75% were positively correlated with smoking index ( r=0.148, 0.152, P<0.05) . The decline rates of DLCO% and MEF25% were positively correlated with the baseline value of initial pulmonary function ( r=0.276, 0.153, P<0.05) , while the decline rates of FEV1%, FEV1/FVC and MEF50% were negatively correlated with the baseline values of initial pulmonary function ( r=-0.215, -0.146, -0.214, P<0.05) . The decline rates of FVC%, FEV1%, MEF75% and MEF50% were positively correlated with the changes of CAT scores ( r=0.147, 0.208, 0.210, 0.196, P<0.05) . Logistic regression analysis showed that old age and high initial value of DLCO% were the risk factor for the decline of DLCO% ( OR=1.105、1.078, P<0.05) .High smoking index was the risk factors for the decline of MEF75% ( OR=1.016, P<0.05) . High stage and the increase of CAT score were the risk factors for the decline of MEF50% ( OR=1.548, 1.162, P<0.05) . High initial value of MEF25% was the risk factor for the decline of MEF25% ( OR=1.010, P<0.05) . Conclusion:The pulmonary function index of pneumoconiosis patients declined significantly in 3 years. The stage of pneumoconiosis, age, smoking index and degree of pulmonary function damage were related to the decline rate of pulmonary function.

Objective:
To investigate the safety and efficacy of allogeneic CAR-T cells in the treatment of relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) .
Methods:
CAR-T cells were prepared from peripheral blood lymphocytes of HLA mismatch healthy donors. Median age was 55 (48-60) . Allogeneic cells were derived from 3 HLA haploidentical donors and 1 HLA completely mismatch unrelated donor. Four patients with RRMM were conditioned with FC regimen followed by CAR-T cell transfusion. They were infused into CART-19 (1×107/kg on day 0) and (4.0-6.8) ×107/kg CART-BCMA cells as split-dose infusions (40% on day 1 and 60% on day 2) . The adverse reactions and clinical efficacy were observed during follow-up after infusion, and the amplification and duration of CAR-T cells in vivo were monitored by PCR technique.
Results:
CAR-T cells were successfully infused in 3 of the 4 RRMM patients according to the study plan, and the infusion in one patient was delayed by 1 day due to high fever and elevated creatinine levels on day 3. The side effects included hematological and non-hematological toxicity, grade 3 hematological toxicity in 2 patients, grade 3 CRS in 1 one, grade 1 CRES in 1 one, prolonged APTT in 3 ones, tumor lysis syndrome in 1 one, mixed chimerism detected STR and clinical GVHD manifestation in 1 one. According to the efficacy criterias of IMWG, 2 patients acquired PR, 1 MR, and 1 SD respectively. Progression-free survival was 4 (3-5) weeks and overall survival was 63 (3-81) weeks. CAR T cells were amplified 2.2 (2-14) times in the patients with a median survival time of 10 (8-36) days.
Conclusions
Small sample studies suggested that GVHD may be present in the treatment of RRMM with allogeneic CAR-T cells. There were early clinical transient events after transfusion. Low amplification and short duration of CAR-T cells in vivo may be the main factors affecting the efficacy.

Objective In the present study, we investigated the effects of advanced oxidation protein products(AOPP) on reactive oxygen species(ROS) production in murine osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells by NADPH oxidase enzymes pathway. Methods Experiments were divided into three groups, including control group, rats albumin(RSA) group, and AOPP group. Different concentrations of AOPP were added to the osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells culture medium. The production of ROS in MC3T3-E1 cells was measured by the fluorescence intensity of intracellular fluoroprobe ( DCFD ) . In order to verify the effect of enzyme of the production of ROS, the specific inhibitors of corresponding enzymes were added in the MC3T3-E1 cells which were cultured in the medium with AOPP. Finally, western blot and immunofluorescence were used to observe the changes of NADPH oxidase enzymes subunits. Results Different concentrations of AOPP (50,100,200μg/ml) induced MC3T3-E1 cells to produce different amount of ROS. The higher concentrations of AOPP were added, the more ROS were produced. Furthermore,200μg/ml AOPP induced the maximum amount of ROS production(P<0. 05). Meanwhile, AOPP induced MC3T3-E1 cells to produce different amount of ROS with a time-dependent manner. The peak amount of ROS production in MC3T3-E1 cells was observed in 3h when AOPP were added (P<0. 05). In addition, when specific inhibitors of corresponding enzymes were added in the MC3T3-E1 cells, the production of ROS were significantly suppressed by C-SOD, DPI, and apocynin(P<0. 05). On the other hand, AOPP can up-regulate the expression of Nox4 protein of the MC3T3-E1 cells, which is one of the subunits of NADPH oxidase enzymes. Meanwhile, AOPP can also induce the membrane migration of p47phox subunit. Conclusion AOPP induces osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells to produce ROS by NADPH oxidase enzymes pathway, and which may be one of the pathogenesis of AOPP involved in osteoporosis.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the outcomes of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT)for paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria(PNH)and aplastic anemia(AA)- PNH syndrome.
METHODSThe clinical data of 18 PNH or AA-PNH patients, including 4 classic PNH and 14 AA-PNH, received allo-HSCT from Dec 2007 to Feb 2015 were analyzed retrospectively. Nine patients received HLA-haploidentical donor HSCT(1 patient received salvage HLA-haploidentical donor HSCT after the graft failure of double cord blood transplantation), 7 patients received HLA-identical sibling donor HSCT, and 2 HLA-identical unrelated donor HSCT. The conditioning regimens were as follow: 13 patients received modified BU/CY- based regimens, 5 non- myeloablative regimens [fludarabine (Flu) + antithymocyte globulin(ATG)+ cyclophosphamide(CY)or busulfan(BU)]. Prophylaxis for graft- versushost disease(GVHD): the patients with HLA-identical sibling donor received cyclosporine(CsA)plus short-term methotrexate(MTX), the patients with HLA -haploidentical donor or HLA-identical unrelated donor received CsA or tacrolimus(FK506)+ mycophenolate mofetil(MMF)+ short- term methotrexate (MTX).
RESULTSAll patients were engrafted successfully(1 patient engrafted by haploidentical donor after the graft failure of double cord blood transplantation). The median days of neutrophils(ANC)above 0.5 × 109/L and platelets (PLT) more than 20 × 10⁹/L were 11(10- 26)days and 15(11- 120)days, respectively. Three patients(17.6%)developed acute GVHD(aGVHD), 2 for grade Ⅱ aGVHD, 1 for grade Ⅳ aGVHD. Of 16 patients, 2 occurred limited chronic GVHD(cGVHD). After a median follow-up of 14.6(2.0-86.7)months, 3 patients(17.6%)died, out of which one died of severe aGVHD, one died of severe pulmonary infection, one pulmonary infection with transplant- associated thrombotic microangiopathy. The 5- year estimated disease free survival was(80.5 ± 10.2)%. No patient relapsed.
CONCLUSIONAllo-HSCT is an effective and curable therapy for PNH or AA-PNH with improved prognosis, and offers a valid therapeutic option for these patients before humanized monoclonal antibody against C5 are widely used clinically.
