Background The serious air pollution of highway toll booths poses a high occupational exposure risk to toll collectors. It is urgent to develop purification methods suitable for airborne particles and microbial pathogens in highway toll booths. Objective To verify the purification effect of low temperature plasma air purifiers on airborne particles and microbes in highway toll booths. Methods Based on controlled-intervention design, we selected three toll booths in an expressway toll station as on-site experimental locations for 6 d (no-intervention period: the low-temperature plasma purifier was turned off in the first three days; intervention period: the purifier was turned on from 9:00 to 17:00 in the following three days). The indoor and outdoor PM2.5 and PM10 concentrations were continuously monitored during the study. At 9:00, 12:00, and 17:00 of every day during the experiment, indoor and outdoor air samples were collected to analyze the concentration of airborne culturable colonies with a plankton sampler. Airborne particle samples were collected in the outermost exit continuously from 9:00 to 17:00 every day during the experiment using a medium flow particulate sampler, and the species and relative abundance of fungi and bacteria contained in the samples were analyzed by gene sequencing. Independent-sample t test was used to compare the concentration of indoor PM2.5, PM10, and culturable colonies between the intervention period and the non-intervention period. α diversity analysis, β diversity analysis, and t test were used to compare the diversity and relative abundance of specific species of bacteria and fungi, as well as typical pathogenic bacteria and fungi in the samples between the non-intervention period and the intervention period to reflect the purification effect of low temperature plasma air purifier on airborne PM2.5, PM10, and microorganisms. Results During the intervention period, the mean indoor concentrations of PM2.5, PM10, and culturable colonies were lower than those of the no-intervention period (P<0.01 or P<0.001). The ratios of indoor to outdoor concentration (I/O) of PM2.5 and PM10 during the intervention period were significantly lower than those of the no-intervention period (P<0.001), except the I/O of culturable colonies. Compared with the average concentration at 9:00, the average cleaning rates at 12:00 and 17:00 for PM2.5 were 49.0% and 46.1%, for PM10 were 49.7% and 45.4%, for airborne culturable colonies were 50.8% and 49.9%, respectively. The β diversity analysis showed that there were significant differences in composition at the level of species of bacteria, and at the levels of genus and species of fungi between the intervention and the no-intervention periods. The relative abundances of 10 species of bacteria such as Lactobacillus and 7 species of fungi such as Torula in the intervention period were significantly lower than those in the non-intervention period, but the relative abundances of fungi such as unclassified_f_cladosporiaceae, trichomerium, and cercospora were higher (P<0.05). For typical pathogenic bacteria, the relative abundances of Lactobacillus and Clostridium_sensu_stricto_1 during the intervention period were 73.5% and 86.9% lower than those in the no-intervention period, and the relative abundance of Talaromyces was 53.5% lower (P<0.05). Conclusion Low temperature plasma air purifier has a good purification effect on indoor PM2.5, PM10, and culturable colonies in highway toll booths, and likely a limited effect on some fungi.

Objective:To discuss the effect and prognostic factors of immediate facial nerve rehabilitation in malignant parotid gland tumor surgery.Methods:The patients with malignant parotid gland tumor who underwent facial nerve rehabilitation surgery in Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology from January 2004 to July 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Their demographic characteristics, preoperative and postoperative facial nerve function according to the House-Brackmann (HB) facial nerve grading system from HB grade Ⅰ to HB grade Ⅵ, injury sites of facial nerve including the trunks injury and branches injury, surgical timing including immediate rehabilitation and elective rehabilitation and rehabilitation methods such as facial nerve anastomosis, nerve transplantation, nerve transfer and muscle flap suspension were recorded. Patients were divided into two groups: satisfactory outcomes with HB grades Ⅰ-Ⅲ and unsatisfactory outcomes with HB grades Ⅳ-Ⅵ, and the factors that may affect the prognosis of facial nerve function were statistically analyzed. T-test was used to compare measurement data, chi-square test or Fisher’s precision probability test was used to compare count data. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results:Eighty-nine patients were included in the study, including 50 males and 39 females, aged 9-82 years, the median age was 49.0 years. Preoperative facial nerve function outcomes were HB Ⅰ ( n=57), HB Ⅱ ( n=5), HB Ⅲ ( n=8), HB Ⅳ ( n=2), HB Ⅴ ( n=15) and HB Ⅵ ( n=2). Fifty-seven patients underwent immediate rehabilitation and 32 patients received elective rehabilitation. In 53 cases, the main trunk and/or the temporal and cervical trunk were injured, and 36 cases were branches injury. Facial nerve anastomosis was performed in 35 cases, 39 cases required nerve transplantation, 12 cases underwent nerve transfer, and 3 cases underwent muscle flap suspension. The follow-up time was 6-72 months. Postoperative facial nerve function outcomes were HB Ⅰ ( n=6), HB Ⅱ ( n=17), HB Ⅲ ( n=26), HB Ⅳ ( n=27), and HB Ⅴ ( n=13). Forty-nine cases were classified as group with postoperative HB grades Ⅰ-Ⅲ, and 40 cases were classified as group with postoperative HB grades Ⅳ-Ⅵ. Statistical analysis showed that there was no significant difference in terms of age and gender between two groups ( P>0.05). Among the patients with postoperative HB grades Ⅰ-Ⅲ, 73.5% (36/49) of the patients had immediate rehabilitation, 36.7% (18/49) of the patients had injury of the nerve trunks, 89.8% (44/49) of the patients had preoperative HB grades Ⅰ-Ⅲ, and 59.2% (29/49) of the patients had nerve anastomosis. Among the patients with postoperative HB grades Ⅳ-Ⅵ, 52.5% (21/40) of the patients had immediate rehabilitation, 87.5% (35/40) of the patients had injury of the nerve trunks, 65.0% (26/40) of the patients had preoperative HB gradesⅠ-Ⅲ, and 15.0% (6/40) of the patients had nerve anastomosis were in the group. There were statistically significant differences between the two groups ( P<0.05 or <0.01). Conclusions:Immediate reconstruction of the facial nerve defect during the operation of malignant parotid gland tumor can obtain better result. Furthermore, injury sites of facial nerve may affect the prognosis of facial nerve function as well.

Objective To investigate the effect of triptolide (TP) on proliferation and apoptosis of cyst-lining epithelial cells with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease ( ADPKD). Methods Primary cultured cyst-lining epithelial cells were treated with TP at different concentrations for 12 h,24 h,48 h and 72 h, respectively.The proliferation activity of the cells was evaluated by Brdu assay. The cell cycle distribution was determined by flow cytometry. The apoptotic and apoptotic ratio were determined by FITC-AnnexinV binding/ PI. The morphological changes of cyst-lining epithelial cells were observed under transmission electron microscope. Results TP significantly inhibited the proliferation of cyst-lining epithelial cells and induced apoptosis in a dose- (10-40 ng?mL-1 )and time-dependent(12-48 h) manner. Typical ultrastructural changes of apoptotic cells were observed under electron microscope. Conclusion TP significantly inhibited the proliferation of cyst-lining epithelial cells and induced the apoptosis of cyst-lining epithelial cells, thus inhibited cyst forming and delayed cyst developing. The mechanism may involve several targets and pathways.

Objective To evaluate the clinical features and prognosis of patients with complete left bundle branch block(CLBBB)following transcatheter device closure of ventricular septal defect(VSD)closure. Methods Clinical feathers of 11 patients with postoperative CLBBB in Department of Pediatric Cardiology,Guangdong General Hospital from January 2011 to December 2013 were collected and reviewed retrospectively. They were treated with dif-ferent protocol based on the appeared time of CLBBB occurrence and clinical symptoms. The patients were followed up, and the prognosis was recorded. Results The median age of 11 patients was 3. 9 years(3. 4 to 17. 5 years old). The median interval of intervention therapy to first attack of CLBBB was 2. 8 months(1 day to 25. 4 months). CLBBB oc-curred within 1 week to 1 month postoperatively in 4 patients,another 1 case suffered from CLBBB between 1 week to 1 month postoperatively,meanwhile 6 cases underwent CLBBB after 6 months postoperatively. The longest term of CLBBB attack postoperatively was 25. 4 months in 1 patient. The electrocardiograms on 5 patients returned to normal by only drug treatment. However,3 patients failed to recover with drug therapy,2 of them undertaken surgical procedure to re-move the occluder associated with VSD repair,1 patient recovered to normal and another converted to incomplete right bundle branch block. One of them refused to undertake surgical procedure and still bothered with persistent CLBBB. Another 3 cases did not receive special treatment due to the later attack of CLBBB(≥6 months)without clinical symp-toms. By the end of observation,the electrocardiogram(ECG)in 4 patients returned to normal,4 patients presented with persistent CLBBB. One patient's ECGs were presented with right bundle branch block. After ECG successfully returning to normal ECG by drug therapy,2 patients relapsed during follow - up,and 1 of them developed to an enlarging left ven-tricle and heart failure which led to death. Conclusions CLBBB may occur in short or long - term after VSD closure. ECG may become normal after early and appropriate treatment postoperatively. Systolic dyssynchrony and cardiac dys-function may be caused by persistent CLBBB. Therefore,patients with CLBBB after VSD closure should be treated ap-propriately without delay,and more frequent and longer follow - ups are required.
