ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the performance and clinical application value of a rapid detection method for the hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell of peripheral blood using the automated hematology analyzer.Methods:Methodology validation and retrospective study. Collected sample from Fujian Medical University Union Hospital from January 2015 to December 2018, the peripheral blood of 4 patients with acute myeloid leukemia was first treated, and one healthy donor′s peripheral blood stem cell collection 5 times diluent, for the methodology validation. And the peripheral venous blood and 5-fold dilutions of peripheral blood stem cell collection, from 23 patients with hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and 22 healthy donors of allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation, used for consistency retrospective analysis. In the linear test, each of the peripheral blood and HPC collecting solutions from blood cell separator, which known CD34 +cell concentration, that was high-value samples for the expected upper limit (H) . Another low-value sample is normal saline (L) . According to the multiple proportion dilution, HPC was detected and regressed consistency test specimens were 126, EDTA-K 2 anticoagulant venous blood 78 and peripheral blood stem cell 48. Venous blood was collected at the same time, one tube of blood routine and HPC detection, the other tube flow cytometry (FCM) detection of CD34 +cells. Stem cell collection was diluted 5 times with sterilized saline and divided into two tubes. One tube was used to count whole blood cells and HPC, the other tube was used to detect CD34 +cells by FCM. The test results of the two instruments were compared, and the deviation was evaluated. Results:The background counting was 0×10 9/L and the carryover rate was 0.1%, conformed to the quality requirements of hematology analyzer, and the repeatability study imprecision ranged between 4.7%-18.8%. HPC of peripheral venous blood linear range (0-27.201×10 9/L), Stem cell collection was diluted 5 times linear range (0-0.878×10 9/L). The results of 126 samples detected by the hematology analyzer and FCM were compared. The correlation coefficient r2=0.960 1. When WBC>10×10 9/L, the results of the two instruments have a good consistency. The slope is between 0.95 and 1.05, and the relative bias is less than 30%. Conclusions:This study suggests that the hematology analyzer has a good linear range for detecting HPC, and has a good correlation with FCM. The hematology analyzer has the advantages of no pretreatment, convenient operation, a wide range of applications in detecting HPC specimens.
ABSTRACT
The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of the first domestic ACYW135 meningococcal conjugate vaccine and a control vaccine named AC group meningococcal conjugate vaccine for 3 months (90-119 days) infants. From February 2017 to June 2018, a randomized, blinded, and similar vaccine-controlled clinical trial design was adopted at the Henan Vaccine Clinical Research Base. The subjects were 3 months old healthy infants, a total of 720, based on a 1∶1 ratio. The random allocation table for entry was randomly assigned to the experimental group and the control group. According to the 3, 4, and 5 month-old vaccination procedures, the subjects were vaccinated with test vaccine (ACYW135 group meningococcal conjugate vaccine) and control vaccine (group A group C meningococcal polysaccharide conjugate vaccine), of which 720 were given the first dose, 696 were given the second dose (test group: 346; control group: 350), and 692 were given the third dose (test group: 344; Control group: 348). The overall adverse reaction rate of the test vaccine was 21.90% (230 cases), which was lower than the 32.04% (339 cases) of the control vaccine (0.05). Group Y and W135 was 88.17% (298 cases), 99.41% (336 cases), respectively. The GMT results showed that the test vaccine group A was 56.24, the control vaccine was 57.43 (>0.05); the group C test vaccine (43.53) was higher than the control group (27.28) (<0.001). The group Y and W135 are 89.22 and 140.66, respectively. Among them, the proportion of the group C GMT antibody ≥ 1∶128 for test vaccine (31.07%, 105 cases) was higher than the control vaccine (16.22%, 55 cases) (<0.001). ACYW135 group meningococcal conjugate vaccine has more safety and immunogenicity after application to 3 month old infants.

In the process of teaching implementation, we should pay attention to the coordination of education, enrich teaching means and strengthen practical teaching, so as to improve the quality of education.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To observe the effect of acupuncture at points selected from different regions on the positive expression of interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) and the stem cell factor (SCF) in gastric antrum tissues in diabetic gastroparesis (DGP) rats, and to explore the influence of region-based point selection on the acupoint combination efficacy. Methods: Sixty Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into a normal group (group A), a model group (group B), a group of Zusanli (ST 36) plus Zhongwan (CV 12) (group C), a group of Zusanli (ST 36) plus Neiguan (PC 6) (group D), and a group of Zusanli (ST 36) plus non-meridian non-acupoint points (group E), based on the random number table (n=12). DGP rat model was established by single intraperitoneal injection of 2% streptozotocin and common diet. After successful modeling, the rats were treated once a day for 4 weeks. Positive ICC and SCF expressions were measured by immunohistochemistry. Results: Compared with group A, the gastrointestinal propulsion rate of group B showed a statistically significant decrease (P<0.05). Compared with group B, the gastrointestinal propulsion rate and the expression of ICC in the gastric antrum were significantly higher in group C, group D and group E, and the between-group differences were statistically significant (P<0.05); the expression of C-kit protein in group C was statistically significantly higher than that in group D and group E (P<0.05). The expression of SCF protein was significantly increased in group C than in group B, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion: Acupuncture can improve the symptoms of delayed gastric emptying in DGP model rats, and regulate the expression of ICC and SCF in gastric antrum tissues. The effect of Zusanli (ST 36) plus Zhongwan (CV 12) in the gastric region is superior to that of the Zusanli (ST 36) plus distal Neiguan (PC 6) or non-meridian non-acupoint point, indicating that region-based point selection is the key factor affecting the effect of acupoint combination.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of target-controlled infusion of etomidate combined with remifentanil on in-dexes of immune and stress response in elderly surgery patients. METHODS:Totally 60 patients undergoing elective surgery were randomly divided into control group(n=30)and observation group(n=30). Control group was given Propofol injection 1.5-2 mg/kg intravenously. Observation group was given Remifentanil hydrochloride for injection with pump volume of 0.5 μg/(kg·min), and then target controlled infusion of Etomidate injection 0.1-0.3 mg/kg;the dose of etomidate increased by 0.05-0.1 mg/kg accord-ing to physical activity during surgery. Postoperative eye opening time,recovery time of orientation and extubation time were com-pared between 2 groups as well as the levels of immune indexes(CD4+,CD8+,CD4+/CD8+),stress response indexes [serum norepi-nephrine(NE),adrenaline(E)and cortisol(Cor)]. The occurrence of ADR was recorded during surgery. RESULTS:Postopera-tive eye opening time,recovery time of orientation and extubation time in observation group were significantly shorter than control group,with statistical significance(P0.05). After surgery,CD4+ and CD8+ of 2 groups were significantly higher than before surgery,and the ob-servation group was significantly higher than the control group,CD4+/CD8+ of 2 groups was significantly lower than before,and the observation group was significantly lower than control group,with statistical significance(P0.05);after surgery,the levels of NE,E and Cor in 2 groups were significantly higher than before surgery,but the observation group was significantly lower than the control group, with statistical significance(P<0.05). There were no obvious adverse reaction occurred in 2 groups during the surgery. CONCLU-SIONS:The target-controlled infusion of etomidate combined with remifentanil is ideal for perioperative anaesthesia in the elderly patients and effectively improves related immune indexes and stress response indexes with good safety.

ABSTRACT
Objective: To investgate the role of Toll-like receptor(TLR) 2 and TLR4 in pathogenesis of atopic dermatitis(AD) and the effect of topical tacrolimus ointment on expression of TLR2 and TLR4 in lesional AD skin.Methods: Immunohistochemistry was employed to study the expression of TLR2 and TLR4 in normal skin and lesional AD skin before and after using topical tacrolimus ointment.Results: The basal keratinocytes in normal skin constitutively expressed TLR2 and TLR4. In contrast,lesional epidermis from 9 patients with acute AD overexpressed TLR2 and TLR4 on the whole epidermis keratinocytes with membranous and cytoplasmic staining pattern.After using topical tacrolimus ointment for three weeks,TLR2 and TLR4 were expressed on basal and suprabasal keratinocytes with membranous and cytoplasmic staining pattern.Conclusion: These data suggest that TLR2 and TLR4 expressed by epidermal keratinocytes constitute part of the innate immune system of the skin,and increased TLR2 and TLR4 expression may be related to the skin innate immuno-inflammatory response in atopic dermatitis.Topical tacrolimus may directly or indirectly inhibit or downregulate TLR2 and TLR4 expression in KC and inhibit skin innate immuno-inflammatory response related to TLR-NF?B signal transduction and regulation in atopic dermatitis.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To investigate the role of nuclear factor ?B (Rel/NF-?B) in pathogenesis of atopic dermatitis(AD) and the effect of topical 0.1%(mass fraction) or 0.03%(mass fraction) tacrolimus ointment on expression of NF-?B in lesional AD skin. Methods: Immunohistochemistry has been employed to study the expression of NF-?B in normal skin and lesional AD skin before and after using topical tacrolimus ointment. Results: The expressions of NF-?Bp50 and NF-?Bp65 were scattering or negative in normal keratinocytes. NF-?Bp50 was overexpressed on nuclear of basal and suprabasal keratinocytes in 9 cases of AD, NF-?Bp65 was overexpressed in cytoplasm and perinuclear of basal and suprabasal keratinocytes. After using topical tacrolimus ointment for three weeks , nuclear NF-?Bp50 expressed on basal and suprabasal keratinocytes were lost and NF-?Bp50 was expressed sparsely on basal keratinocytes cytoplasm or nuclear. NF-?Bp65 was expressed sparsely on basal and suprabasal keratinocytes cytoplasm. Conclusion: These data suggest that increased NF-?B activity may represent the basis of initiation or maintenance of the skin inflammatory response in atopic dermatitis. Topical tacrolimus may directly or indirectly inhibit NF-?B nuclear expression in keratinocytes and inhibit skin innate immuno-inflammatory response in atopic dermatitis that related to NF-?B.
