HPV infection and clinical characteristics in 159 male patients with condyloma acuminatum in Liaocheng, Shandong / 中国热带医学

@#Abstract: Objective The purpose of this study is to find out the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of male patients with condyloma acuminatum (CA) in Liaocheng area, as well as to improve the understanding of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and put forward targeted prevention and treatment measures. Methods The clinical data of 159 male CA patients who admitted to Liaocheng People's Hospital from January 2021 to January 2022 were collected, and the epidemiological characteristics, clinical manifestations, infection sites, HPV gene subtypes and other information were analyzed retrospectively. Results Most of the 159 CA patients (range from 15 to 77 years old) were 31-40 years old (31.45%, 50/159), more than half of them had smoking history, and more than 60% had low income (<5 000 yuan/month), multiple sexual partners (≥2) and no condom use habit, 70.44% of the patients had prepuce long combined with prepuce balanitis. 91 cases (57.23%) were single infection, 102 cases (64.15%) were simple low-risk HPV infection. The analysis of risk factors between mixed infection and simple low-risk infection found statistically significant differences in age≤ 40 years old, unmarried, or less affected by education duration of 15 years or less, engaged in the business or service industry, the number of sexual partners or 2, knew not to clean and not to use condoms, while differences in smoking history, alcohol history, monthly income level, and age at first sexual intercourse were not statistically significant. Low-risk HPV6 and/or HPV11 were detected in 139 cases (87.42%). Fifty-seven patients (35.85%) were infected with at least one high-risk HPV. 72.33% of the patients had multiple warts, and the most common sites were around the coronal sulcus and frenulum of the penis Conclusions The incidence of multiple infections and high-risk subtypes is high in male CA patients in Liaocheng area, and most of the patients have low income, low education level and multiple sexual partners. Strengthening the treatment and education follow-up of this population may contribute to the treatment and prognosis of male CA in this area.

Morphological Features of Complex Congenital Cardiovascular Anomalies in Fetuses: as Evaluated by Cast Models / 华中科技大学学报（医学）（英德文版）

Accurate prenatal diagnosis of complex congenital cardiovascular anomalies,vascular ones in particular,is still challenging.A fetal cardiovascular cast model can provide a copy of the cardiac chambers and great vessels with normal or pathological structures.This study was aimed to demonstrate three-dimensional anatomy of complex congenital cardiovascular anomalies in fetuses by means of corrosion casting.Twenty fetuses with prenatal-ultrasound-diagnosed complex cardiovascular anomalies were enrolled in this study (19 to 35 gestational weeks).Fetal cardiovascular cast models were made by a corrosion casting technique.The specimens were injected with casting material via the umbilical vein,and then immersed in strong acid after casting fluid was solidified,to disclose the geometries of cardiovascular cavities.Nineteen cast models were successfully made from 20 specimens.The casts distinctly showed the morphological malformations and spatial relationship between cardiac chambers and great vessels.One hundred and eleven abnormalities were revealed by casting in the 19 specimens,including 34 abnormalities located in the cardiac chambers (3,4 and 27 anomalies in the atria,atrioventricular valves and ventricles,respectively),and 77 in the great vessels (28,20,24 and 5 anomalies in the aorta and its branches,the pulmonary artery,the ductus arteriosus and the major veins,respectively).Corrosion casting can display three-dimensional anatomy of fetal complex cardiovascular anomalies.This improves our understanding of related pathomorphology and prenatal diagnosis.

Research and Application of Transnasal Transesophageal Echocardiography Probe / 华中科技大学学报（医学）（英德文版）

The intubation of conventional transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) probes into patients causes serious esophagus irritation,and thus the use of TEE probes in pediatric practice is limited.In this study,we aimed at the development of a special probe which could be inserted through the nasopharyngeal cavity into the esophagus to obtain the same high-quality echocardiography images as those obtained by conventional TEE and improve patients' experience.During the examination,the patients felt relaxed for a longer time and cooperated with the sonographers in the process of cardiac catheterization conducted in the surgery room or the intensive care unit (ICU),resulting in improved accuracy of the diagnosis and timely administration of appropriate treatment.Two years ago,Prof.Xin-fang WANG put theories into practice by inserting the probe through the nasal cavity and pharynx into the esophagus of volunteers to successfully detect the heart and great vessels at the retrocardiac space.Later,Prof.Ming-xing XIE performed the transnasal TEE examination in 12 atrial septal defect (ASD) patients and proved the safety and reliability of this method,which could become a new way for clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Changes of CD34(+) and CD71(+)CD45(-) cell levels in bone marrow of MDS and AA patients / 中国实验血液学杂志

This study was aimed to investigate the changes of CD34(+) and CD71(+)CD45(-) cell levels in MDS and AA patients. A total of 25 cases MDS and 43 cases of AA (18 cases SAA and 25 cases of NSAA) from January 2010 to October 2013 in the Department of Hematology, affiliated hospital of Hebei United University were enrolled in this study. The complete blood count, bone marrow smears, bone marrow biopsy, karyotype analysis and bone marrow blood cell immune genotyping (mainly the proportion of CD34(+) cells, CD71(+)CD45(-) cells in nucleated cells) were carried out for all patients; the changes of CD34(+) and CD71(+)CD45(-) cell levels in patients with MDS and AA (SAA NSAA) were compared; the differences of white blood cell count, platelet count and hemoglobin concentration in patients with count of CD71(+)CD45(-) ≥ 15% or <15% were analyzed. The results showed that the count of CD34(+) in MDS group was higher than that in AA (NSAA and SAA) group (P < 0.05). The count of CD71(+)CD45(-) cells in MDS group was higher than that in SAA (P < 0.05), there was no significant difference between NSAA group and MDS group. In MDS group with CD71(+)CD45(-) ≥ 15%, the platelet count was significantly higher than that in NSAA group (P < 0.05); and there was no statistical difference for leukocyte, platelet count and hemoglobin level between MDS and NSAA group with CD71(+)CD45(-) <15% (P > 0.05). It is concluded that the count of CD34(+) cells in MDS patients is significantly higher than that in AA and SAA patients. The count of CD71(+)CD45(-) cells in MDS group is significantly higher than that of SAA group. The platelet count in MDS patients with CD71(+)CD45(-) cells ≥ 15% is significantly higher than that of the NSAA group.

HPLC method for the simultaneous determination of four compounds in rat plasma after intravenous administration of Portulaca oleracea L. extract

The objective of the present study was to develop a simple and selective HPLC method for the simultaneous determination of hesperidin (HP), caffeic acid (CA), ferulic acid (FA) and p-coumaric acid (p-CA) in rat plasma after intravenous administration of Portulaca oleracea L. extract (POE). With the hyperoside as the internal standard, the sample pretreatment procedure involved simple single-step extraction with methanol of 0.2 mL plasma. The mobile phase consisted of methanol-acetonitrile-tetrahydrofuran-0.5% glacial acetic acid (5:3:18:74, v/v/v/v). The calibration curves were linear over the range of 0.1-25 µg mL-1, 0.1-25 µg mL-1, 0.1-25 µg mL-1and 0.015-3 µg mL-1 for HP, CA, FA and p-CA, respectively. The method developed was suitable for the pharmacokinetic study of HP, CA, FA and p-CA in rats after intravenous administration of POE.

Effects of rehabilitation on the regeneration of nerve cells after experimental cerebral hemorrhage in rats / 中华物理医学与康复杂志

Objective To study the effects of rehabilitation training on the regeneration of nerve cells in rats after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH).Methods A total of 75 male SD rats were randomized into a training group,a control group and a sham operated group,25 rats/group.The ICH models were induced by stereotactical injection of collagenase type Ⅶ into the globus pallidus.The training group was trained with grasp,balancing and rotating exercise every day,the control group was restricted to their cages,and the sham operated group received normal saline injections.Each group was further subdivided into 1,4,7,14 and 28 day subgroups.Neurological function was measured in each group.Bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) was used to label S phase cells,immunohistochemical single and double staining with antibodies against BrdU,microtubal-associated protein (MAP) and neuronal nuclei (NeuN) were used to determine neuronal proliferation,migration and differentiation in the subventricular zone ( SVZ ) and subgranular zone (SGZ) in the training and control groups.Results The motor function scores of the animals in the rehabilitation group were significantly lower than those of the control group.Proliferative BrdU + cells of the SVZ and SGZ in the control group rats were clearly less than those in the rehabilitation training rats at all time points.The results of the immunohistochemical double staining indicated that one week after ICH BrdU +/MAP + cells in the SVZ had increased significantly in the training group compared to the control group,and then decreased two weeks later.At the same time,BrdU +/MAP cells were found in the striatal boundary on the hemorrhage side,in numbers up to 8 times that in the control group.In the rehabilitation group striatal neuron differentiation on the hemorrhage side was 2 to 3 times that in the control group.Conclusion Rehabilitative training can enhance nerve cell proliferation,regeneration and neuron migration after ICH.
