		                        			Objective: To understand the prevalence of HIV, hepatitis C virus (HCV) and syphilis and related factors among cross-border couples in Mangshi county, Dehong autonomous prefecture, Yunnan province. Methods: From May, 2017 to April, 2019, 2 500 couples with 5 000 cross-border marriages were selected by using cluster sampling method. The demographic characteristics, AIDS-related health services, HIV, HCV, syphilis infection and other information were collected through questionnaires and laboratory tests. The influencing factors of HIV, HCV and syphilis infection were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression model. Results: A total of 2 500 couples with cross-border marriage were investigated, among which 2 438 (97.5%) couples were Chinese men with Myanmar women. The average age of 5 000 participants was (34.16±9.00) years. Most of them were minority groups (59.9%), farmers (98.5%), education years ≤6 years (81.4%), marriage years>3 years (80.0%), and from mountainous areas (61.7%). The HIV prevalence of Chinese and Myanmar populations was 1.7% (43/2 500) and 2.0% (49/2 500), respectively. The HCV infection rates were 2.0% (49/2 500) and 1.3% (32/2 500), respectively and the infection rates of syphilis were 0.4% (10/2 500) and 0.2% (4/2 500), respectively. There were no statistically significant differences in the prevalence of three diseases among Chinese and Myanmar populations (P>0.05). The multivariate analysis showed that compared with those aged ≤ 30 years, having lower AIDS awareness, never receiving HIV testing, without HCV and syphilis infection, HIV prevalence was higher among those aged>30 years (OR=3.21, 95%CI: 1.80-5.73), having higher AIDS awareness (OR=17.41, 95%CI: 4.27-70.91), receiving HIV testing (OR=4.93, 95%CI: 2.72-8.92), with HCV infection (OR=5.64, 95%CI: 2.72-11.70) and syphilis infection (OR=8.37, 95%CI: 1.63-43.08). Compared with those aged ≤ 30 years, having marriage years ≤ 3 years, and with HIV negatives, HCV infection rate was higher among those age>30 years (OR=3.02, 95%CI: 1.69-5.38), having marriage years>3 years (OR=2.24, 95%CI: 1.34-3.74), and with HIV positives (OR=6.69, 95%CI: 3.29-13.59). Compared with those having HIV negatives, the syphilis infection rate was relatively higher among participants with HIV positives (OR=9.07, 95%CI: 2.00-41.10). Conclusion: The prevalence of HIV, HCV, and syphilis among cross-border couples in Mangshi county, Dehong autonomous prefecture of Yunnan province is relatively high. Age, AIDS awareness, HIV testing history, and the length of marriage are associated with the HIV, HCV, and syphilis infection.

		                        			Objective To analyze the clinicopathological features and immunohistochemical expression of meningiomas in the Tibetan population in Tibet,and improve the understanding of meningiomas. Methods The clinical and pathological data of all the meningiomas diagnosed by pathology in Tibet Autonomous Region People's Hospital from April 2013 to March 2021 were analyzed retrospectively.All the cases underwent immunohistochemical staining of trimethylation of lysine 27 on histone H3 (H3K27me3),mucin 4 (MUC4),somatostatin receptor 2 (SSTR2),progesterone receptor,epithelial membrane antigen,glial fibrillary acidic protein,vimentin,S-100,P53,and Ki-67.The histopathological features and the staining results were observed under a light microscope. Results A total of 116 cases of meningiomas were included in this study,with the male-to-female ratio of 1.0∶2.6 and the age of 4-73 years.The main clinical symptom was headache.The imaging examination showed that 114 cases had single lesions and 2 cases had multiple lesions.The tumors were located in the cranium (108 cases) and spinal canal (8 cases).The maximum diameter of the tumors ranged from 0.3 cm to 10.0 cm,with a mean of (5.7±2.2) cm.In terms of microscopic grading and histological types,the 116 cases included 111 cases of WHO grade Ⅰ (including 53 cases of fibrous type,20 cases of meningothelial type,24 cases of transitional type,10 cases of psammomatous type,etc.),4 cases of WHO grade Ⅱ (3 cases of atypical type and 1 case of clear cell type),and 1 case of WHO grade Ⅲ (papillary type).The immunohistochemical staining showed H3K27me3 expression absent in 9 cases (9/116,7.8%),MUC4 positive in 64 cases (64/116,55.2%),SSTR2 positive in 101 cases (101/116,87.1%).Eighty cases had follow-up results,among which 71 cases had no recurrence,while 9 cases recurred. Conclusions Meningioma is the most common tumor in the central nervous system in the pathological file of Tibet.It mainly attacks the middle-aged female patients,occupying the parasagittal sinus,falx,and convex surface of the brain.Fibrous meningioma of WHO grade Ⅰ is common,while the meningiomas of WHO grades Ⅱ and Ⅲ are rare.The expression degree of MUC4 is higher in meningothelial and transitional meningiomas but lower in fibrous meningiomas.There may be no correlation between the absence of H3K27me3 expression and prognosis.

		                        			OBJECTIVE:
		                        			To investigate the effect of high mobility group protein 1(HMGB1) on the proliferation and cytokine expression of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSC).
		                        		
		                        			METHODS:
		                        			Different concentrations of recombinant human HMGB1 protein (100, 200, 400, 800 and 1000 ng/ml) were incubated with MSC for 24, 48, 72 h and the proliferation of MSC were detected respectively by using the CCK-8 method and flow cytometry. The best concentrations of HMGB1 incubated with MSC was determined (200 ng/ml, 1000 ng/ml), and the flow cytomerty was used to determine the effect of HMGB1 on the proliferation of MSC. The mRNA expression levels of IL-10, TGF- β1, TSG-6 and IFN-γ in MSC incubated with HMGB1 protein were detected by real-time quantitative PCR and ELISA.
		                        		
		                        			RESULTS:
		                        			The result of MSC identification and flow cytometry showed that the CD105, CD73 and CD90 were expressed, but did not expression CD45, CD34, CD11b, CD19 and HLA-DR; CCK-8 showed that HMGB1 at the concentrations of 100 ng/ml, 200 ng/ml and 400 ng/ml could promote the proliferation of MSC incubated for 24, 48 and 72 h as compared with the control group (P<0.05), and the most effective concentration was 200 ng/ml; flow cytometry showed that the compared with the control group, HMGB1 200 ng/ml could induce MSC from G1 phase to S phase to promote the proliferation of MSC; QPCR showed that the mRNA expression of MSC cytokines IL-10, TGF-β1, TSG-6 increased while IFN-γ decreased at the concentration of 200 ng/ml HMGB1 as compared with the control group. ELISA experiments showed that the HMGB1 200 ng/ml acting on MSC for 48 h could significantly promoted the secretion of IL-10, TGF-β 1 and TSG-6(P<0.05), while IFN-γ showed no significant difference as compared with control group.
		                        		
		                        			CONCLUSION
		                        			Recombinant human HMGB1 can promote the proliferation and secretion of MSC in healthy people.

		                        			BACKGROUND:
		                        			Norepinephrine infusion decreases hypotension after spinal anesthesia during cesarean section. This study aimed to compare the efficacy of norepinephrine infusion and ephedrine bolus against post-spinal hypotension in parturients.
		                        		
		                        			METHODS:
		                        			In this double-blinded, randomized controlled clinical trial, parturients scheduled for elective cesarean section were randomly allocated to receive norepinephrine infusion (0.05 μg·kg-1·min-1) just before spinal anesthesia continuing for 30 min or ephedrine bolus (0.15 mg/kg) just before spinal anesthesia. A rescue bolus (5 μg norepinephrine for the norepinephrine group, and 5 mg ephedrine for the ephedrine group) was administered whenever hypotension occurred. Our primary outcome was the incidence of hypotension within 30 min of spinal anesthesia administration. Secondary outcomes included maternal and neonatal outcomes 30 min after spinal block, and neonatal cerebral oxygenation 10 min after birth.
		                        		
		                        			RESULTS:
		                        			In total, 190 patients were enrolled; of these patients, 177 were included in the final analysis. Fewer patients suffered hypotension in the norepinephrine group than in the ephedrine group (29.5% vs. 44.9%, odds ratio [OR]: 0.51, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.28-0.95, P = 0.034). Moreover, the tachycardia frequency was lower in the norepinephrine group than in the ephedrine group (OR: 0.22, 95% CI: 0.11-0.44, P < 0.001), and patients suffered less nausea and vomiting (OR: 0.28, 95% CI: 0.11-0.70, P = 0.004). There was no difference in Apgar scores and umbilical arterial blood gas analysis between the two groups. However, neonatal cerebral regional saturations were significantly higher after birth in the norepinephrine group than in the ephedrine group (mean difference: 2.0%, 95% CI: 0.55%-3.45%, P = 0.008).
		                        		
		                        			CONCLUSION:
		                        			In patients undergoing elective cesarean section with spinal anesthesia, norepinephrine infusion compared to ephedrine bolus resulted in less hypotension and tachycardia, and exhibited potential neonatal benefits.

		                        			Objective:To explore the current status and influencing factors of venous thromboembolism (VTE) knowledge among nurses of hospitals in Tibet, so as to provide guidance for VTE nursing in Tibet.Methods:From November to December 2019, convenience sampling was used to conduct a VTE knowledge survey of 1 117 nurses in 59 hospitals from 7 cities (regions) of the Tibet Autonomous Region using the VTE Knowledge Questionnaire for Clinical Nurses. Binary Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the influencing factors of VTE knowledge scores among nurses.Results:Among nurses of the Tibet Autonomous Region, the total VTE knowledge score was (36.70±15.17) , of which the basic knowledge dimension score was (7.13±2.99) , and the risk assessment dimension score was (14.75±7.61) , and the basic prevention dimension score was (3.92±1.99) , and the physical prevention dimension score was (4.73±2.62) points, and the drug prevention dimension score was (1.96±1.29) , and the VTE post-processing dimension score was (4.22±2.35) . The average score rate of VTE knowledge among nurses in Tibet was 48.94%, and the knowledge of nurses was at an intermediate to low level. In the use of preventive measures, nurses had insufficient knowledge, including physical prevention score rate of 36.38%, drug prevention score rate 39.20%. Logistic regression analysis showed that professional title, hospital level, and whether or not they had participated in training were independent factors influencing the qualification of nurses' VTE knowledge score ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The nurses in Tibet have insufficient knowledge of VTE. Managers need to carry out targeted training for nurses with different characteristics and the deficiencies of knowledge, to promote nurses to apply what they have learned to clinical practice effectively, and to ensure the quality of VTE care.

		                        			 Objective To understand the current status and changing tendency of human hookworm infections in Anhui Province. Methods According to the unified national survey scheme, a total of 48 survey sites were sampled from 16 counties (cities) in 4 ecological regions of Anhui Province using a stratified cluster random sampling method from 2014 to 2015. The hookworm eggs were detected in the fecal samples from permanent residents at ages of over one year living in the survey sites using a modified Kato-Katz thick smear method, and the subjects’health knowledge and behaviors were investigated using questionnaire survey. Results A total of 12 300 persons were examined in the 48 survey sites from 4 ecological regions of Anhui Province between 2014 and 2015, and 259 subjects were identified with hookworm infections, with a mean prevalence of 2.11%. Among the four ecological regions, the North China Plain had the highest prevalence of human hookworm infections (3.02%) and in all survey sites, Linquan County had the highest prevalence (7.03%). Ancylostoma duodenale was the predominant hookworm species identified (62.16%), and 65.64% had mild infections. The prevalence of human hookworm infections was significantly greater in women than in men (χ2 = 4.16, P < 0.05), and showed a tendency towards a rise with ages (χ2trend = 113.36, P < 0.01). In addition, the prevalence of human hookworm infections varied in occupations (χ2 = 159.41, P < 0.01) and education levels (χ2 = 34.95, P < 0.01). Questionnaire survey showed low prevalence of human hookworm infections in subjects knowing the question“how hookworm infection occurs”and denying“using fresh stools for fertilization”(χ2 = 15.05, P < 0.01; χ2 = 4.19, P < 0.05). Conclusions The prevalence of human hookworm infections has greatly decreased in Anhui Province; however, the prevalence remains relatively high in some regions and populations. The North China Plain should be regarded as the key area for hookworm disease prevention and control, and housewives and populations with advanced ages and low educational levels are key targeted populations in Anhui Province.

		                        			The purpose of this paper is to study the use rules of drugs for lung diseases in internal medicine department of Xin'an Wang's family, discuss the compatibility of common drugs for lung diseases, guide clinical application, and inherit Xin'an medicine. By retrospective study on lung diseases cases in Wang's internal medicine works, the lung diseases and use frequency of common drugs treated by Wang's medicine were counted, and the systematic clustering and association rule analysis of common drugs were conducted by using SPSS Statistic 20 and SPSS Modeler 18.0, respectively. The results showed that asthma, cold and cough were the main lung diseases treated by Wang's medicine, and the commonly used medicines included antitussive and antiasthmatic drugs, spleen-invigorating and dampness-removing drugs, and expectorants. The medicine taste was mainly bitter, pungent and sweet, with cold and warm properties in a balanced way, without severely cold or hot herbs, mainly attributing to the lung and stomach meridians. In clustering analysis, 10 drug combinations were obtained; association analysis showed that two, three, four association rules respectively had 11, 21, and 10 groups, and each drug group had 11, 16, and 5 items. Core combinations: Poria, Armeniacae Semen Amarum, Asteris Radix et Rhizome, Coicis Semen, Farfarae Flos, Dendrobii Caulis, Perilla Frutescens, Stemonae Radix, Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium, Cynanchi Stauntonii Rhizome et Radix, Meretricis Concha Cyclinae Concha, Belamcandae Rhizoma, and Pinelliae Rhizome. Xin'an Wang's medicine paid attention to the lung nature when treating lung diseases. Lung is a delicate organ, not resistant to coldness or heat, so severely cold or hot herbs shall not be used, and the clear and light drugs with functions of dispersing lung Qi, clearing phlegm evil, strengthening spleen, eliminating phlegm, and relieving cough and asthma are often used. Lung deficiency is a kind of deficiency of Qi and Yin, so both Qi and Yin shall be regulated. Deficiency of Yin would burn the lung and make the lung collaterals blocked. In this case, the lung collaterals shall be dredged for hemostasis. Long time of lung deficiency would hinder the distribution of body fluid, and lung shall be regulated to dissipate phlegm.

		                        			Objective To detect the levels of procalcitonin in multiple genes autoinflammatory disease (adult Still disease,systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis,crohn's Crohn's disease),and to explore the relationship between erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR),C-reactive protein (CRP),ESR/CRP and disease or complicated infection combined disease.Methods One hundred and fifty-three patients were en-rolled,88 patients with multiple genes autoinflammatory disease,including 32 cases of adult Still disease,27 cases of systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis,29 cases of Crohn's disease.In addition,30 cases of healthy controls,35 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) were included into this study.Electroche-miluminescence was used to test the value of serum PCT,erythrocyte sedimentation rate was tested by blood sedimentation instrument method,the CRP level was tested by lmmunoturbidimetry,and the data was handed managed and analysised by matlab software and One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to compare the differences of PCTs between groups.Results ① In the non-infection condition,the PCT value of the autoimmune inflammatory diseases [(0.36±0.74) μg/L,95%confidence interval (CI) (0.174 9,0.550 9) μg/L)] was signifieantly higher than that of the healthy control group [(0.06±0.06) μg/L,95%CI (0.035 1,0.081 7 μg/L)],the difference was statistically significant (F=5.03,P=0.027 4),but there was no statistically significant (F=1.03,P=0.475 5) when comparing with SLE group.② The PCT level of the non-infected inflammatory enteric arthritis [(0.20±0.32),95%CI(0.042 7,0.364 3) μg/L] was different compared with the healthy group,the difference was statistically significant (F=5.77,P=0.020 4),at the same time,the difference was not statistically significant when comparing with the SLE group (F=0.22,P=0.647 6).When the PCT value in non-infected adults Still disease [(0.60±1.02) 95%CI(0.048 4,1.153 6) μg/L] compared with the healthy group,the difference was statistically significant (F=7.22,P=0.01) but the difference was not statistically different when compared with the SLE group (F=2.65,P=0.114 3).The PCT level difference was statistically significant (F=2.23,P<0.01)when comparing infection-free juvenile idiopathic arthritis [(1.52±2.02) μg/L,95%CI(0.054 8,4.591 9) μg/L] and the healthy group,the difference was statistically significantly different (F=8.34,P=0.004 7) when compared with the PCT of the non-infected SLE group.③ In the case of autoinflammatory diseases without infection,the 95%CI of ESR/CRP ratio was between 1.121 2 and 3.589 4.In the case of co-infection,the 95% CI of ESR/CRP ratio was between 1.502 2 and 8.718 8,so we considered autoimmune inflammatory diseases might had a high possibility of co-infection when the ESR/CRP ratio was higher than 3.5.Conclusion ① The multiple genes autoinflammatory disease group has a higher value of PCT level than healthy controls even without infection.② The mean and 95%CI range of PCT of the inflammatory bowel disease arthritis,adult Still disease and the juvenile id-iopathic arthritis is significantly higher than the healthy controls,partially higher than SLE group.In addition,the PCT level in the juvenile idiopathic arthritis is the highest.③ In clinical,to estimate whether the multiple genes autoinflammatory disease has bacterial infection,we can't just simply rely on PCT to estimate whether the multiple genes autoinflammatory disease has bacterial infection,we may consider the ratio of the ESR/CRP,when the value is higher than 3.5,we may consider patients has strong probability with infection.
