CT动态增强鉴别肾上腺乏脂肪腺瘤与肾上腺结节样增生的价值

目的探讨CT动态增强对鉴别肾上腺乏脂肪腺瘤与肾上腺结节样增生的价值。方法回顾性分析经手术病理证实的12例肾上腺乏脂肪腺瘤和27例肾上腺结节样增生患者的病例资料,统计两组病例各期增强CT值,利用公式灌注值P=CT静脉期-CT平扫期、廓清值C=CT静脉期-CT延迟期、绝对廓清灌注指数APC=(C/P)×100%及相对廓清灌注指数RAPC=(C/CT静脉期)×100%得到相关参数,并通过绘制受试者工作特征曲线,鉴别两者的最佳价值。结果肾上腺乏脂肪腺瘤直径较结节样增生更大;肾上腺乏脂肪腺瘤病灶各期CT值均明显高于结节样增生,且两者灌注值P、廓清值C、APC及RAPC有明显的统计学差异。年龄、性别、高血压、病灶位置、对侧肾上腺萎缩及动脉期CT值对鉴别两者无显著意义。结论CT动态增强扫描有助于鉴别肾上腺乏脂肪腺瘤和肾上腺结节样增生。     

Inactivated influenza vaccine formulated with single-stranded RNA-based adjuvant confers mucosal immunity and cross-protection against influenza virus infection

Influenza vaccination is considered the most valuable means to prevent and control seasonal influenza infections, which causes various clinical symptoms, ranging from mild cough and fever to even death. Among various influenza vaccine types, the inactivated subunit type is known to provide improved safety with reduced reactogenicity. However, there are some drawbacks associated with inactivated subunit type vaccines, with the main ones being its low immunogenicity and the induction of Th2-biased immune responses. In this study, we investigated the role of a single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) derived from the intergenic region in the internal ribosome entry site of the Cricket paralysis virus as an adjuvant rather than the universal vaccine for a seasonal inactivated subunit influenza vaccine. The ssRNA adjuvant stimulated not only well-balanced cellular (indicated by IgG2a, IFN-γ, IL-2, and TNF-α) and humoral (indicated by IgG1 and IL-4) immune responses but also a mucosal immune response (indicated by IgA), a key protector against respiratory virus infections. It also increases the HI titer, the surrogate marker of influenza vaccine efficacy. Furthermore, ssRNA adjuvant confers cross-protective immune responses against heterologous influenza virus infection while promoting enhanced viral clearance. Moreover, ssRNA adjuvant increases the number of memory CD4⁺ and CD8⁺ T cells, which can be expected to induce long-term immune responses. Therefore, this ssRNA-adjuvanted seasonal inactivated subunit influenza vaccine might be the best influenza vaccine generating robust humoral and cellular immune responses and conferring cross-protective and long-term immunity.     

基于高通量测序技术研究药食两用薏苡仁中污染真菌多样性

目的:调查药食两用薏苡仁中污染真菌多样性,为其安全使用提供参考依据。方法:收集薏苡仁样品18批,提取真菌DNA并扩增ITS2序列,基于Illumina MiSeq PE250平台进行高通量测序。结果:共检测到4门18纲44目99科149属的真菌,子囊菌门Ascomycota是最优势菌门,镰刀菌属Fusarium(3.05%~60.32%)是属水平最优势属,其次是曲霉属Aspergillus(2.20%~45.44%)、白僵菌属Beauveria(0.07%~63.21%)、链格孢属Alternaria(0.80%~11.92%)、Arachnomyces(0.03%~39.36%)和青霉属Penicillium(0.24%~8.03%)。此外,共检测到5种潜在产毒真菌,分别是烟曲霉A.fumigatus、土曲霉A.terreus、梨孢镰刀菌F.poae、囊状青霉P.capsulatum和展青霉P.paxilli。结论:高通量测序技术可以快速有效地检测薏苡仁中污染真菌种类,为薏苡仁污染真菌毒素提供风险预警。     

Acute consumption of pecans decreases angiopoietin-like protein-3 in healthy males: a secondary analysis of randomized controlled trials

Angiopoietin-like proteins (ANGPTL)-3 and -4 regulate lipid metabolism, but the effect of tree nuts of varying fatty acid composition on post-meal responses is unknown. The purpose of the study was to conduct a secondary analysis of two studies on ANGPTL3 and -4 responses to meals containing different tree nuts. We hypothesized that the pecan-containing meal would mitigate postprandial rises in ANGPTL3 compared to the traditional meal without nuts in males, but not females. In addition, we hypothesized that there would be no other differences between any other treatments in ANGPTL3 or -4 responses. The two studies were double-blind, randomized crossover trials. Twenty-two adults (10=male, 12=female) completed study 1, which compared meals containing pecans vs. no nuts (control), and thirty adults (14=male, 16=female) completed study 2, which compared meals containing black walnuts, English walnuts (EW), or no nuts (control). Blood was collected at fasting, 30, 60, 120, and 180min postprandially. In study 1, ANGPTL3 was suppressed more in pecan vs. control in males (iAUC: -579.4±219.4 vs. -128.4±87.1pg/mL/3h, P<.05). In study 2, there was no difference in ANGPTL3 between black walnuts vs. EW, but ANGPTL3 was suppressed more in control vs. black walnuts in females only (iAUC: -196.4±138.4 vs. 102.1±90.1pg/mL/3h, P<.05). There were no differences in ANGPTL4 between treatments. In conclusion, adding pecans to a meal decreased ANGPTL3 in males, but not females. These data highlight the importance of investigating the impact of nutrients and sex on postprandial ANGPTL3 ad -4 responses to better understand their ability to reduce cardiovascular disease risk.     

电灼结合中药内服外洗治疗尖锐湿疣的疗效观察

目的观察电灼结合中药内服外洗治疗尖锐湿疣的临床疗效及对患者T淋巴细胞亚群的影响。方法选择从2013年7月至2017年11月山西医科大学附属大同市第三人民医院泌尿外科治疗尖锐湿疣的患者148例,随机分成对照组和观察组两组,每组74例。对照组患者单独采用电灼治疗;观察组患者在采用电灼基础上结合中药内服外洗共同治疗。结果观察组尖锐湿疣患者复发率为10.8%,低于对照组尖锐湿疣患者复发率28.4%,差异具有统计学意义。(P<0.01)。两组治疗后复发组CD3+细胞、CD4+细胞水平、CD4+/CD8+细胞比值较未复发组低,而CD8+细胞水平较未复发组高,差异具有统计学意义。(P<0.05)。治疗后,观察组尖锐湿疣患者CD3+水平、CD4+水平、CD4+/CD8+比值高于对照组尖锐湿疣患者,且观察组尖锐湿疣患者CD8+水平低于对照组尖锐湿疣患者CD8+水平,差异具有统计学意义(P<0.01)。结论电灼结合中药内服外洗能减少尖锐湿疣的复发率。在临床治疗中,监测尖锐湿疣患者外周血T淋巴细胞亚群,对尖锐湿疣患者治疗后的复发预估及相应增强免疫治疗具有重要的指导意义。
