Objective:To investigate the effect of Early infarct growth rate(EIGR) on the prognosis of patients with acute large vessel occlusive ischemic stroke.Methods:A total of 164 patients with acute large vessel occlusive ischemic stroke were enrolled in the emergency department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2022.According to the change of the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score at admission and 72 h after treatment, the patients were divided into good prognosis group and poor prognosis group. The basic clinical data of the two groups were observed and compared. The risk factors of poor prognosis were analyzed by univariate regression. The effect of EIGR on prognosis after age stratification was further analyzed.Results:Comparing the clinical data of the two groups, there was no difference in EIGR (mL/h) (7.67 vs. 8.24, P=0.211) between the two groups. The product between EIGR and age was included as the interaction term, and the result of the interaction term in the model was statistically significant ( OR=1.002, 95% CI: 1.000-1.003, P=0.032) .Moreover, the result was still statistically significant after adjusting for relevant variables (gender, history of hypertension, history of atrial fibrillation, history of diabetes, history of coronary heart disease, and history of stroke) ( OR=1.002, 95% CI:1.000-1.003, P=0.027). Subgroup analysis was performed according to the median age (71 years). In the elderly group, the proportion of poor prognosis was higher with fast core infarction growth rate defined by 25 mL/h and 15 mL/h ( P < 0.05).In the younger age group, there was no significant difference in the proportion of poor prognosis in the fast core infarction growth rate compared with the slow type ( P > 0.05). Conclusions:EIGR can predict the early clinical outcome early in elderly patients with large vessel occlusive ischemic stroke.

Objective: To analyze the survival of newly diagnosed malignant tumors in cancer registration areas of Hubei Province from 2013 to 2015. Methods: From January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2015, all newly diagnosed malignant tumors were collected from cancer registration areas in Hubei Province, and patients were followed up using a combination of active and passive methods. Cancer survival was analyzed using the strs package in Stata software. Observed and expected survival were calculated using the life table and Ederer Ⅱ methods, and the difference in survival rate of patients with different sex, age, urban and rural areas and different cancer species was compared. Results: From 2013 to 2015, 83 987 new malignant tumors were diagnosed in cancer registration areas in Hubei Province, including 45 742 males (54.46%) and 38245 females (45.54%). The overall 5-year relative survival rate was 41.46%, 34.43% for men and 49.63% for women. With the increase of age, the observed survival rate and relative survival rate of patients of different genders showed a decreasing trend. The 5-year relative survival rate of patients with malignant tumors was 47.58% in urban areas and 26.58% in rural areas. The observed survival rate and relative survival rate in rural areas were significantly lower than those in urban areas. The overall 5-year relative survival rates for common malignancies were 20.61% for lung cancer, 15.36% for liver cancer, 22.89% for esophageal cancer, 34.92% for gastric cancer, and 54.87% for colorectal cancer. In addition, the 5-year relative survival rates of common malignant tumors in women were 78.65% for breast cancer and 52.55% for cervical cancer. Conclusions: In Hubei Province, the survival rate of malignant tumors is different among different genders, regions, age groups and cancer species. Prevention and treatment and health education should be strengthened for malignant tumor patients in rural areas and those with high incidence and low survival rate such as liver cancer and lung cancer, and relevant strategies should be formulated according to the gender and age distribution characteristics of different cancer species.

ObjectiveTo understand the infection of AIDS， syphilis， and gonorrhea in men who have sex with men （MSM）， and the factors influencing the acceptance of gonorrhea testing in Dehong Dai Jingpo Autonomous Prefecture （Dehong Prefecture）， Yunnan Province. MethodsAcross-sectional survey was conducted to describe and analyze the acceptance of AIDS， syphilis， and gonorrhea testing among MSM tracked in Dehong Prefecture in 2018. ResultsA total of 385 MSM were included in the analysis， with a 100.0% HIV and syphilis testing rate. The HIV antibody positivity rate was 10.6% （41/385） and the positivity rate of syphilis antibody was 14.8%（57/385）. Only 30.4% of the subjects were willing to test for gonorrhea， and 13.7%（16/117）of them were test positive. Further multifactorial analysis revealed that local MSM and syphilis co-infected individuals were more likely to be tested for gonorrhea （aOR=2.48， 95%CI=1.33-4.65， P=0.004； aOR=2.59， 95%CI=1.43-4.71， P=0.002）. ConclusionThe positive rates of AIDS， syphilis and gonorrhea in MSM population in Dehong Prefecture are relatively high. Integrated interventions of STD/AIDS and gonorrhoea detection should be strengthened.

Objective To understand the prevalence of HIV infection and its influencing factors in the premarital physical examination population in Dehong Prefecture, Yunnan Province, 2017. Methods The data of people receiving premarital medical examination was collected, the demographic characteristics was described and the related factors was analyzed by Logistic regression. Results There were 21 875 participants receiving premarital medical examination in Dehong. 98(0.45%) participants were confirmed positive for HIV and male infection rate was 0.47% (52/10 955) and female was 0.42% (46/10 920). Among the 98 patients, 20 patients were infected in the first time, and main route was sexual transmission accounting for 81.63% (80/98). Logistic multivariate regression analysis showed that age, ethnicity and drug use were the influencing factors for premarital couples infecting HIV. The risk of HIV infection in 31-40 and 41-50 years old group was higher than the people under 25 years old group(OR=3.78, 95% CI：1.81-7.89, P<0.001；OR=3.95, 95% CI：1.72-9.08, P=0.001). The infection risk of Dai and Jingpo ethnic group was higher than that of the Han ethnic(OR=1.86, 95% CI：1.06-3.29, P=0.031；OR=3.25, 95% CI：1.81-5.84, P<0.001). The risk of infection among drug users was much higher than non-drug users (OR=926.76, 95% CI：271.65-3 161.71, P<0.001). Conclusion Age, ethnicity, and drug use are influencing factors of HIV infection among premarital couples. Targeted measures need to be taken against risk factors. HIV infection is mainly transmitted by sexual transmission. It can be effectively detected and controlled through premarital medical examination.

Bismuth modified boron doped diamond (BDD) film electrode was employed for simultaneous determination of trace ZnⅡ,CdⅡand PbⅡby anodic stripping voltammetry.BiⅢwas simultaneously in-situ deposited on bismuth modified boron doped diamond electrode with ZnⅡ,CdⅡ and PbⅡ by pre-concentration.In the presence of BiⅢ,the sensitivity for determination of ZnⅡ,CdⅡ and PbⅡ was remarkably enhanced.Influence factors such as bismuth concentration,boron doped concentrations of BDD electrode,pH,preconcentration potential were investigated and optimized.Under the optimal conditions,the stripping peak currents increased linearly with the increasing concentration of ZnⅡ,CdⅡ and PbⅡ in the range of 10-300 μg/L.The limit of detection was 0.56 μg/L for ZnⅡ,0.32 μg/L for CdⅡand 0.75 μg/L for PbⅡ (S/N=3),respectively.The interference experiments showed that common ions had little influence on the determination except CuⅡ.In addition,the developed electrode displayed a good repeatability.The method was successfully applied to determination of ZnⅡ,CdⅡ and PbⅡ in real water samples with the standard addition recoveries of 92.0%-114.0%.

Objective To explore the effect of ginsenoside Rg1 on leukemia stem cells through comparing the biological senescence characteristics of HSCs in the patients with leukemia and healthy people,and provide new ideas and methods for leukemia prevention and treatment.Methods Fifteen cases of normal bone marrow in normal group and sixteen cases of chronic myeloid leukemia in leukemia group were divided into control group and Rg1 group,respectively.The control group used the conventional culture.The Rg1 group used the culture system with 10 μg/mL ginsenoside Rg1,other conditions were the same as control group.The bone marrow mononuclear cell of all groups were extracted after 2 days,and the CD34 +/CD38-cells population was isolated and purified by immunomagnetic adsorption cell sorting(MACS).The purity of the cells and cell cycles phase were detected by flow cytometry.Cell viability was detected by trypan blue staining.The percentage of positive cells was detected by SA-β-gal staining.CCK-8 detected the CD34 +/CD38-proliferation ability of each group.Results The ratio of CD34 +/CD38-cell population was (1.76 ± 0.34) ％ in every 1 × 106 BMNCs before sorting;the proportion of CD34 +/CD38-cell population per 1 × 106 cells after immunomagnetic sorting was (91.15 ± 2.41)％.The positive rate of SA-β-gal staining in human bone marrow CD34 +/CD38-cells of leukemia Rg1 group was significantly higher than that in leukemia control group,the difference was not significant (P ＞ 0.05);meanwhile there was no significant difference between normal control group and normal Rg1 group,but higher than that in leukemia control group,the difference was significant(P ＜ 0.05).CCK-8 results showed that the proliferation of CD34 +/CD38-cells was significantly increased in leukemia control group than those in the other groups.The survival rate of CD34 +/CD38-cells in human bone marrow was 99.1％ in all groups.Cell cycle phase results showed that the G1 arrest of CD34 +/CD38-cells in leukemia control group was significantly lower than those in the other three groups.Conclusion CD34 +/CD38-cells in chronic myeloid leukemia patients may be caused by some chronic myeloid leukemia.Ginsenoside Rg1 can effectively delay the process of aging.
