Objective:To investigate the characteristics and change trends of electroencephalogram (EEG) in patients with drug resistant epilepsy (DRE) after vagus nerve stimulation (VNS).Methods:Twenty-five patients with DRE, admitted to our hospital from July 2016 to May 2019, were chosen; all patients accepted VNS and followed up for 12 months. Long range video EEG (VEEG) monitoring was performed before VNS, and 3, 6 and 12 months after VNS, and the tracing time of each monitoring was longer than 12 h. The EEG characteristics of these patients before and different times after VNS were analyzed.Results:In the VEEG monitoring before VNS, 25 patients showed sharp wave, spike wave, sharp slow wave, and compound spike slow wave in the interictal period; 3 patients (12%) could locate the brain region. The interictal EEG of 11 patients 3 months after VNS showed different degrees of improvement as compared with the preoperative one, which manifested as mixed rhythms: mono-spiking as sharp wave, sharp slow wave or spike wave; 8 patients had McHugh grading I-II. The interictal EEG of 18 patients 6 months after VNS showed different degrees of improvement as compared with the preoperative one; 11 patients had McHugh grading I-II. The interictal EEG of 21 patients 12 months after VNS showed different degrees of improvement as compared with the preoperative one; 15 patients had McHugh grading I-II.Conclusion:The EEG improvement effect of DRE patients after VNS is gradually improved with time; in some patients, the EEG improvement is earlier than improvement of clinical symptoms.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of the anterolateral thigh perforator chimeric flap in the treatment of the wound of diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) .Methods:From January, 2018 to December, 2019, 14 cases wound of DFU of type II diabetic were treated by anterolateral thigh chimeric perforator flap. The patients were 10 males and 4 females, at 49 to 58 years old. Of the 14 patients, 10 with simple peripheral neuropathy, 4 with peripheral neuropathy complicated with vascular disease, and none with single vascular disease. With strict control of patients' blood glucose, antibiotics blended bone cement was applied or filled onto grade 2 or higher grade Wagner's DFU after debridement. In addition, the anterolateral thigh chimeric perforator flap was transferred 2 to 3 weeks later. The size of flap was 8 cm×3 cm-27 cm×7 cm. Regular followed-up were made after surgery.Results:Thirteen flaps survived in one stage after surgery. The other 1 flap had venous vascular crisis, and survived completely after active exploration. The patients were followed-up for 6-12 months. All the flaps survived well in good shape and texture. The donor and recipient areas healed well. The functional recoveries of the DF were satisfactory.Conclusion:Application of anterolateral thigh perforator chimeric flap in repair of the refractory wound of DF achieves a good clinical outcome and effectively improves the life quality of patients.

Objective@#To evaluate the external quality assessment (EQA) program for genotyping results of tacrolimus metabolism-related cytochrome P450 family 3 subfamily A member 5 ( CYP3A5 )using plasmid DNA constructed in vitro as quality control samples, discuss the problems in clinical laboratories enrolled in the program and improve the detection quality of CYP3A5 gene. @*Methods@#Recombinant plasmid carrying CYP3A5 *3 (rs776746) AA locus sequence was constructed as wild type sample and plasmid with CYP3A5 *3 GG mutation as mutant type sample. Heterozygous mutant samples were obtained by mixing the two plasmids with equal proportion. Recombinant plasmids DNA were used as the sample panel for EQA scheme. Participating laboratories were asked to test the samples using their routine methods and report the results before deadlines. The scores of each laboratory were calculated based on their results and the overall coincidence of different samples as well as the sensitivity and specificity of different methods. @*Results@#CYP3A5 *3 locus genotypes of the constructed plasmid were verified by Sanger sequencing. The results of 15 and 17 valid laboratories were received respectively in the two EQA programs. The total percentage of 93.33% (14/15) and 100% (17/17) of the laboratories submitted correct results for all the samples. The overall coincidence rates were 96% (72/75) and 100% (85/85) respectively. All the laboratories using digital FISH got full marks in two EQA schemes, while the coincidence rates were 90% (27/30) and 100% (40/40) for Sanger sequencing. @*Conclusion@#The recombinant plasmid DNA constructed in this study could effectively detect the performance of reagents with good clinical applicability. The results of EQA programs suggested that the overall accuracy rate of enrolled laboratories was high enough, while the performances in some laboratories still need to be improved. Quality controls in clinical laboratories were essential to assure the accuracy of results.

Objective To investigate the relationship between anti-HCV antibody level and hepatitis C virus genotype in the patients.Methods Total of 603 anti-HCV positive serum samples were collected during 2013 to 2014 by retrospective research method.HCV RNA were detected in anti-HCV positive samples by repeat test and the genotype were detected in HCV RNA positive samples.The distribution of anti-HCV level in different hepatitis C genotype patients was analyzed and the body's response to viral antibodies and viral genotype correlation with anti-HCV concentration interquartile range was explored.Rates among genotype groups were compared using chi-square test.Results Totally 412 of 603 (68.33%) samples were anti-HCV positive by double reagent screening.174(42.3%) samples were detected as HCV RNA positive.The distributions of different anti-HCV level in different genotype patients were 1a(n =8) 1/8,1/8,4/8,2/8;1b(n =112)25.9% (29/112),17.0% (19/112),25.9% (29/112),31.3% (35/112);2a(n =14)3/14,4/14,5/14,2/14;3a(n =11)3/11,6/11,2/11,0/11;3b(n =16)4/16,11/16,1/16,0/16;6a(n =8)2/8,2/8,1/8,3/8 with anti-HCV concentration interquartile range respectively.The anti-HCV concentration distribution was different in patients with different HCV genotypes.The anti-HCV concentration distribution in patients of 1 b,2a and 6a genotypes were evently,while anti-HCV level was relatively high in 1a (13.65) and relatively low in 3b (8.77).There were differences in different genotypes of antibody concentrations (x2 =35.2,P < 0.05).Conclusions There was correlation between anti-HCV level and HCV genotype.Because there were fewer cases in some genotypes,it was necessary to investigate more samples to corfirm the above results.

Aim To develop a rapid and inexpensive method for purification of human albumin, a method of immunomagnetic microspheres (IMMS) based on enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)for the purification of human albumin from human serum. Methods Polystyrene magnetic microspheres with carboxyl groups as carriers were prepared, and then the carboxyl groups on the surface of the microspheres were activated by ethylcarbodiimide (EDC). Finally rabbit anti-human serum albumin (HSA) antibodies were covalently bound to it and the complex can specifically capture HSA. After the procedure of capturing HSA, through taking rabbit anti-human albumin protein antibodies as a capture antibody, and goat anti-human albumin protein antibodies as a detection antibody, an ELISA on IMMS was developed, which can determine the recovery yield of HSA from the human serum. Results The result of the experiment was that the recovery of human albumin with IMMS was (86 ± 4) % , and IMMS were reused for two other purifying cycles, the results of which were (69.0 ± 0.6) % and (40.8 ± 0.8) % , and the purity of the product was about 90%. Conclusion The results above prove that the immunomagnetic purifiying strategy was shown to be efficient and offers an new thought for a large scale production of highpurity HSA.

Objective To develop a rapid and specific method for identification of listerial species and differentiation of Listeria monocytogenes。 Method Primers targeting the iap and hly genes specific for listerial species and L monocytogenes were designed。 The dulplex PCR and triplex PCR were compared for their ability to identify and differentiate the listerial species。 Results Both dulplex PCR and triplex PCR are specific to all listerial reference strains. The dulplex-PCR could not identify some of the L. monocytogenes isolates while the triplex PCR did. Conclusion The triplex PCR method could be used not only for identification of listerial species but also for differentiation of L. monocytogenes from the mixed listerial suspensions.
