Abstract
Objective: To study the mortality and death-related risk factors of patients hospitalized for asthma exacerbation in Chinese urban areas. Methods: A retrospective study was carried out in 29 hospitals of 29 provinces throughout mainland China. Patients hospitalized for asthma exacerbation during 2013-2014 in each hospital were included. For each patient, information about demography, admission time, comorbidities, severity of diseases, intense care unit (ICU) admission, use of mechanical ventilation and the outcome was obtained. The mortality of patients hospitalized for asthma exacerbation was calculated, and the basic information and causes of death of the patients who died were summarized. The death-related risk factors and numbers of comorbidities were compared between the patients who survived and those who died during hospitalization. Results: A total of 3 240 patients (median age 57.0) were included and among them 8 patients (median age 68.5) died. The mortality of patients hospitalized for asthma exacerbation was 0.25%. All the patients who died were admitted during the winter and spring. One patient died of acute myocardial infarction, one of cardiac shock, one of tension pneumothorax, one of sudden death, one of respiratory failure and three of unknown causes. The average number of comorbidities of patients who died was 1.10, larger than that of patients who survived (0.83) (P>0.05). More patients had diabetes, coronary artery diseases and hypertension as comorbidities in the patients who died (2/8) than those who survived[7.6% (246/3 232), 7.6% (246/3 232), 22.6% (731/3 232), respectively](all P>0.05). Conclusions: The in-hospital mortality of patients hospitalized for asthma exacerbation of China in this study is low. The patients who died are much older, and with more comorbidities, and a higher percentage of comorbidities such as diabetes, coronary artery diseases, and hypertension.

Blood flow index as an indicator of successful sciatic nerve block: a prospective observational study using laser speckle contrast imaging. Br J Anaesth 2018; 121:859-866. [PMID: 30236247 DOI: 10.1016/j.bja.2018.05.065] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2017] [Revised: 04/10/2018] [Accepted: 06/07/2018] [Indexed: 01/22/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Laser speckle contrast imaging allows real-time, non-invasive, quantitative measurements of regional blood flow. The objectives of this prospective observational study were to use laser speckle contrast imaging to evaluate blood flow changes after sciatic nerve block, and to determine whether this novel optical technique can evaluate block success. METHODS This observational study included 63 adult patients undergoing elective lower limb surgery with sciatic nerve block. Blood flow images and blood flow index (BFI) values of toes were recorded using laser speckle contrast imaging 5 min before nerve block and at 5 min intervals until 30 min after sciatic block. The sensitivity, specificity, and cut-off value of laser speckle contrast imaging for predicting successful sciatic block were determined by receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. RESULTS The BFI values of toes were significantly increased at each time point after successful sciatic block, compared with the baseline value obtained 5 min before nerve block; in failed sciatic block, there were no significant differences. For successful sciatic block, the highest increase of BFI value was at the big toe. BFI increase of the big toe at 10 min after sciatic block has great potential as an indicator of block success. The area under the ROC curve was 0.954 at a cut-off value of 8.48 perfusion units (PU) with a sensitivity of 89% and a specificity of 100%. CONCLUSIONS Laser speckle contrast imaging might be an early, objective, quantitative, and reliable indicator of successful sciatic block. BFI increase of the big toe not reaching 8.48 PU within 10 min after sciatic block indicates block failure. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION NCT03169517.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the current perception of disease among asthmatic patients in Chinese urban areas, and to address its association with asthma control. Methods: This was a nationwide, multi-center, cross-sectional study covering 30 third-level, grade A hospitals in 30 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions (not including Tibet) across Chinese mainland. The survey was carried out from October 2015 to May 2016. Asthmatic outpatients were selected to receive face-to-face questionnaire survey on asthma control including Asthma Control Test (ACT) score, classification of asthma control level[according to the Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) 2015 classification system, as assessed by the physician completing the survey], perception of asthma (including question 1: nature of asthma as a disease; question 2: selection of first-line therapeutic agents to be regularly used daily for asthma; question 3: appropriate timing of the use of short-acting aerosols of β(2) receptor agonists; and question 4: therapeutic goals for asthma). Results: A total of 3 875 asthmatic outpatients were included; among them, 69.0% (2 660/3 857) were aware that asthma is "an airway inflammatory disorder resulting from the combined effects of heredity and environment" ; 60.2% (2 321/3 857) considered "inhaled glucocorticoids or their compound preparations" to be the first-line therapeutic agents to be regularly used daily for patients with persistent chronic asthma; 85.7% (3 277/3 823) considered it appropriate to use short-acting aerosols of β(2) receptor agonists "as needed in the event of disease aggravation or acute exacerbation" ; and 75.4% (2 761/3 661) were aware that asthma "can be adequately or completely controlled in the long term" . The ACT score[20 (16, 23) vs 19 (16, 22) points; Z=-3.928, P<0.001]and asthma control rate (29.92% vs 25.31%; χ(2)=8.616, P=0.003) were significantly higher, and the rate of uncontrolled asthma (19.92% vs 23.48%; χ(2)=6.267, P=0.012) was significantly lower among the 2 660 (69.0%) patients correctly answering question 1 than among the 1 197 (31.0%) patients giving incorrect answer. The ACT score[21 (17, 23) vs 19 (15, 22) points; Z=-9.190, P<0.001] and asthma control rate (32.66% vs 22.20%; χ(2)=49.614, P<0.001) were significantly higher, and the rate of uncontrolled asthma (18.40% vs 25.00%; χ(2)=24.267, P<0.001) was significantly lower among the 2 321 (60.2%) patient correctly answering question 2 than among the 1 536 (39.8%) patients giving incorrect answer. Conclusions: Compared to previous surveys, there has been improved perception of disease among asthmatic patients in Chinese urban areas. Correct perception of disease is favorable for improving asthma control level.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the biological characteristics of microvesicles(MV) derived from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSC) and their capability supporting ex vivo expansion of hematopoietic stem cells(HSC). METHODS The MV from cultured BM-MSC supernatant were isolated by multi-step differential velocity contrifugation; the morphological characteristics of MV were observed by electron microscopy with negative staining of samples; the protein level in MV was detected by using Micro-BCA method; the surface markers on MV were analyzed by flow cytometry. The peripheral blood HSC(PB-HSC) were isolated after culture and mobilization; the experiment was diveded into 2 group: in MV group, the 10 mg/L MV was given, while in control group, the same volume of PBS was given; the change of PB-HSC count was observed by cell counting; the change of surface markers on PB-HSC was detected dynamically by flow cytometry; the cell colony culture was used to determin the function change of PB-HSC after co-culture with MV. RESULTS MSC-MVs are 20-100 nm circular vesicles under electron microscope. About 10 µg protein could be extracted from every 1×106 MSC. The flow cytometry showed that CD63 and CD44 were positive with a rate of 96.0% and 50.2%, while the HLA-DR, CD34, CD29 and CD73 etc were negative. When being co-cultured with GPBMNC for 2 days, the cell number of MV groups was 1.49±0.15 times of the control group (P>0.05). When being co-cultured for 4 days, the cell number of MV groups was 2.20±0.24 times of the control group(P<0.05). The CD34+ cell number of MV groups was 1.76±0.30 times the control group after culture for 2 day and 1.95±0.20 times after culture for 4 day. CONCLUSION The MV has been successfully extracted from MSC culture supernatant by multi-step differential velocity centrifugation. MSC-MV can promote HSC expansion in vitro.

Abstract
A dramatic band gap narrowing of 1.61 eV has been observed in Co-doped nanocrystals of CeO2 (ceria), as a result of thermal annealing, without changing the ceria crystal structure and the Co concentration. As demonstrated by x-ray absorption fine structures, thermal annealing incurs an oxygen coordination rearrangement around Co atoms from an octahedral coordination to a square-planar coordination. First principle calculation using density functional theory reveals two stable oxygen coordination types surrounding Co, consistent with the experimental observation. The band gap values calculated for the two stable coordination types differ dramatically, reproducing the experimentally observed band gap narrowing. These prominent effects due to local structure rearrangement around dopant atoms can lead to unprecedented methods for band gap engineering in doped nanocrystal oxides.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the effect of infusing G-CSF mobilized recipient spleen cells at different time after haploidentical stem cell transplantation(HSCT) on graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in mice and its possible mechanism. METHODS Forty mice after HSCT were randomly divided into 4 groups (n=10): GVHD positive control group (control group), 1st d recipient cell infusion group after transplantation (+1 d group), 4th d recipient cell infusion group after transplantation(+4 d group), 7th d recipient cell infusion group after transplantation(+7 d group). The mice in control group were injected the normal saline of same equivalent with experimental group which were given the same amount of G-CSF-mobilized recipient spleen cells. The general manifestation and pathological change of GVHD were observed. The expression changes of CD3+CD4+, CD3+CD8+ cell subsets and FasL in peripheral blood were detected by flow cytometry. RESULTS The incidence of GVHD was significantly decreased in +4 d group and the median survival time was longer than 60 days, which was significantly higher than that of control group (24 d), +1 d group (21 d), +7 d group (28 d). (P<0.01, P<0.01, P<0.01). The Fasl expression of peripheral blood T lymphocytes in +4 d group were significantly lower than that in the other 3 groups(P<0.05). CONCLUSION The +4 d infusion of G-CSF mobilized recipient spleen cells on 4th day after haploidentical HSC transplantation can inhibit the expression of FasL in donor T lymphocytes, and significantly reduce the incidence of GVHD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of microvesicles(MV) isolated from human peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cells(PB-HSC) on immune regulation and hematopoiesis. METHODS PB-HSCs were separated by density-gradient centrifugation and cultrued. The supernatants of PB-HSC at 48 h were harvested for isolation and purification of MV by using ultracentrifugation. The electron microscopy was used to observe the morphology of MV. The protein level in MV was quantified through bicinchoninic acid(BCA) protein assay. Flow cytometry was used to detect the immunophenotype of MV. Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PB-MNC) were isolated from healthy donor and treated with isolated MV. After being co-cultured for 12 h, confocal microscopy was used to observe the action mode of MV on PB-MNC. After being co-cultured for 48 h, the levels of IL-2, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IFN-γ and TNF-α were detected by ELISA. Flow cytometry was used to detect the changes of T cell subsets and the activation of T cell subsets as well as intracellular cytokine staining after co-culture for 48 h. The methylcellulose was used to assess the hematopoiesis-supportive function of MV as well as co-cultured supernatants. RESULTS The eletron microscopy revealed that MV were elliptical membrane vesicles. The protein amount in MV ranges from 29 to 110 µg. Flow cytometry showed that MV expressed mix markers on the surface, especially highly expressed MV specific marker CD63(85.86%) and hematopoietic stem cell marker CD34(33.52%). After being co-cultured for 12 h, confocal microscopy showed that MV were merged with PB-MNC. After being co-cultured for 48 h, ELISA showed that the secretion of cytokines IL-6,IL-8, IL-10 as well as TNF-α was increased while the level of IL-2 and IFN-γ was not changed much. The results of flow cytometry showed that there was no significant change in T cell subsets and T cell activation. Staining of intracellular factor showed that IL-8 was increased significantly in CD11c+ cells. The colony-forming experiments revealed that MV and the co-cultured supernatants could facilitate the colony formation. CONCLUSION MV isolated from PB-HSC have immune-regulatery function and can prornote hematopoiesis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To establish a new mouse model of H-2 haploidentical stem cell transplantation from double donors (DHSCT) and compare with conventional haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) so as to alleviate transplant-related complications. METHODS The recipients CB6F1 of conventional HSCT group were pretreated by 8 Gy total body irradiation(TBI), and received 3×107 donor (male C57) spleen mononuclear cells (spMNC) mobilized by G-CSF within 2 hours after TBI. Recipients CB6F1 of D-HSCT groups accepted 2 Gy TBI, and received total 12×107 spMNC mobilized by G-CSF from 2 donors within 2 hours after TBI, each donor donated 6×107 cells. According to the different strains and sex of donors, DHSCT were divided into 3 groups: in group A, the stem cells were from male C57 and female BALB/c; in group B, stem cells were from male C57 and male BALB/c, while the stem cells in group C were from male C57 and male C3H. Hematopoietic reconstruction, engraftment, GVHD and survival were observed among these 4 groups. RESULTS The nadir of white blood cell count after conventional HSCT were lower than 1×109/L and lasted for 3 to 5 days, while not less than 3×109/L after D-HSCT among either group A, B or C. The complete chimerism (CC) in conventional HSCT group was achieved quickly within only 1 week in peripheral blood. Mixed chimerism (MC) in peripheral blood was found within the first week after DHSCT among either group A, B or C, and transformed into stable CC within the second week eventually. Both GVHD morbidity and mortality of conventional HSCT were 100% at 34th day after transplantation.Among DHSCT groups,the overall GVHD morbidity and mortality at 34th day after transplant were 49.6% and 50%(P<0.01,P<0.05), respectively,and 60.4% and 81.2% at 50th day after transplant. Overall survival of 50 days was 50.9% that indicated a long survival in such mice DHSCT. The differences of hematopoietic reconstruction, donor cell engraftment, GVHD incidence, GVHD mortality and OS were not statistically significant among group A, B and C(P>0.05). CONCLUSION A new mouse model of H-2 haploidentical peripheral blood stem cell transplantation from double donors (DHSCT) has been successfully established by reducing conditioning intensity and increasing graft cell numbers from double haploidentical donors without GVHD prophylaxis. DHSCT successfully achieved stable complete chimerism, less GVHD morbidity and mortality and longer OS without hematopoietic suppression. This study provides experimental evidence for clinical application of HLA haploidentical peripheral blood stem cell transplantation from double donors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the features of immunophenotypes and the characteristics of molecular biology and cellular genetics of AML patients with CD7 and CD4 expression. METHODS The immunophenotypical markers of AML cells were detected by multiple parameter flow cytometry; the expression of WT1, MDK, ETO, PML-RaRa and BCR-ABL were detected by RT-PCR; and cellular features were analyzed by R-band in 304 patients. The patients were divided into three groups according to their immunophenotypes: AML with CD7 expression (CD7 group), AML with CD4 expression(CD4 group) and AML without CD7 and CD4 expression (common AML group). RESULTS The expression rate and level of HLA-DR in CD7 group were higher than those in the common AML group, and the expression rate of CD33 and CD34 was higher than that in the other two groups. The expression rate and level of CD15, CD64 in the CD4 group were higher than those in the other 2 groups, and the expression rate and level of CD33 were higher than those in the common AML group. WT1 expression in the CD7 group was lower than that in the common AML group. PML-RaRa was not detected in the CD7 group. AML with co-expression of CD4 or CD7 showed more normal karyotype. (15;17) was not found in AML with CD7 expression. CONCLUSION AML cells with CD7 expression originate from precursor cells and are blocked in the early phase of hematological development; AML cells with CD4 expression originate from more mature stage of hematological devevelopment and with CD33, CD64 and CD15 high expression; AML cells with CD7 and CD4 expression are characterized by no-specific change of cellular genetics. According to the expression level and intesity of CD4 and CD7, and together with other specific lineage markers, the MRD in AML patients can be quantitatively detected.

Abstract
This study compared 6-year follow-up data from patients undergoing reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) transplantation with an HLA-matched related donor (MRD), an HLA-matched unrelated donor (MUD), or an HLA-haploidentical donor (HID) for leukemia. Four hundred and twenty-seven patients from the China RIC Cooperative Group were enrolled, including 301 in the MRD, 79 in the HID, and 47 in the MUD groups. The conditioning regimen involved fludarabine combined with anti-lymphocyte globulin and cyclophosphamide. Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis was administered using cyclosporin A (CsA) and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF). Four hundred and nineteen patients achieved stable donor chimerism. The incidence of stage II-IV acute GVHD in the HID group was 44.3 %, significantly higher than that in the MRD (23.6 %) and MUD (19.1 %) groups. The 1-year transplantation-related mortality (TRM) rates were 44.3, 17.6, and 21.3, respectively. Event-free survival (EFS) at 6 years in the HID group was 36.7 %, significantly lower than that of the MRD and MUD groups (59.1 and 66.0 %, P < 0.001 and P = 0.001, respectively). For advanced leukemia, the relapse rate of the HID group was 18.5 %, lower than that of the MRD group (37.5 %, P = 0.05), but the EFS at 6 years was 31.7 and 30.4 % (P > 0.05), respectively. RIC transplantation with MRD and MUD had similar outcome in leukemia which is better than that with HID. RIC transplantation with HID had lower relapsed with higher TRM and GVHD rate, particularly in advanced leukemias. RIC transplantation with MRD and MUD had similar outcomes in leukemia and they were better than those with HID. RIC transplantation with HID had a lower relapse rate but higher TRM and GVHD rates, particularly in cases of advanced leukemia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We wanted to compare the effects of tiapride and risperidone in treating behavioral and psychological symptoms of senile dementia. PATIENTS AND METHODS 108 patients with senile dementia received respective treatments (54 patients per treatment, either with 100 mg/day risperidone or 2.0 mg tiapride/day) for 2 months. Outcomes included the positive and negative syndrome scale (PANSS) scores, the curative rate of senile dementia, and prevalence of adverse effects (somnolence, headache, loss of weight, extrapyramidal system response, irritation and insomnia). RESULTS PANSS scores before treatment were comparable between treatment groups. On days 7, 15, 30, and 60 of the treatment, the differences between two treatment groups became evident. Thus, curative rates in patients treated with risperidone were 74.1% and in those treated with tiapride 88.9% (p < 0.05). Prevalence of adverse reactions was significantly lower in the latter group (9.3% vs. 25.9% in patients treated with risperidone; p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Tiapride is more effective in improving clinical symptoms of senile dementia and causes fewer adverse effects.

Abstract
The prevalence rates of anti-citrullinated protein/peptide antibodies (ACPAs) were investigated in a cohort of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) patients, and their diagnostic performances were compared. ACPAs, including anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide IgG (anti-CCP), anti-CCP IgG/IgA (anti-CCP3.1), citrullinated recombinant rat filaggrin antibodies (CPA), anti-mutated citrullinated vimentin (anti-MCV), and antibodies to citrullinated human IgG-derived peptides (RA/CP), were measured in the sera from 81 JIA patients. Serum samples from 55 children with other joint diseases or viral infections and 49 healthy donors were tested as controls. Of the 81 JIA patients, 7 (8.6%), 8 (9.9%), 17 (21.0%), 23 (28.4%), and 18 (22.2%) were found to be positive for anti-CCP, anti-CCP3.1, CPA, anti-MCV, and RA/CP, respectively, with specificities of 98.1, 95.1, 93.3, 84.6, and 86.5%. Analysis by subtype revealed that 7/7 (100%) of RF-positive polyarticular JIA patients tested positive at high serum levels for anti-MCV or RA/CP, and 5/7 (71.4%) were positive for anti-CCP, anti- CCP3.1, or CPA (P < 0.001, compared with controls). Eighteen of 81 JIA patients demonstrated joint erosions on radiographs and erosive arthritis occurred more often in ACPAs positive patients (P < 0.01). Our findings indicate that although ACPAs are not satisfactory screening biomarkers for JIA due to low sensitivity, ACPA measurement can aid in diagnosing RF-positive polyarticular JIA and identifying JIA patients with severe bone involvement. The diagnostic performance of each ACPA in JIA is different, and the careful selection of assays is necessary.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to establish recheck rules of urinalysis in children by investigating the concordance rate of the results obtained using the LabUMat urine dry chemistry analyzer (referred to as dry chemistry) and the UriSed tangible composition analyzer with that of the microscopic examination. First, 1040 urine samples from children (mean age 6.5 years) were analyzed using LabUMat and UriSed analyzers, and subsequently subjected to microscopic examination. The missed detection rate was evaluated and recheck rules were established to avoid missed diagnoses of abnormal renal function. Finally, clinical validations of the recheck rules were performed on 200 additional specimens. Among the samples used to investigate the recheck rules, the samples with positive microscopic examination results accounted for 58.65% of the total, while the samples with negative results accounted for 41.35%. Of the positive samples, a major portion (>50%) were RBC positive. The samples that were WBC positive and CAST positive accounted for 23.08 and 7.69%, respectively. The concordance rate was 87.5% and the missed detection rate was 2.9%. For the validation of the recheck rules in 200 urine samples, the concordance rate was 87.5% and the missed detection rate was 2.4%. When the detection of occult blood, WBC, and protein by dry chemistry, and the detection of RBC, WBC, and CAST by the UriSed analyzer are inconsistent, or the differences between them greater than 2 levels, recheck by microscopic examination is suggested.

Abstract
A harmonically self-mode-locked Nd:Sr3Y2/(BO3)4 disordered crystal laser with subpicosecond pulse duration is demonstrated. We exploit the damped harmonic oscillator model to numerically verify that the mode spacing of the laser cavity can be modified to be the harmonics of the free spectral range of the Fabry-Perot cavity when the optical length of the laser cavity is close to a commensurate ratio of the optical length of the Fabry-Perot cavity. In experiment, the Fabry-Perot cavity can be formed by the pump facet of the disordered crystal and the front mirror. A 110 GHz single-pulse harmonically mode-locked pulse train with pulse duration of 857 fs is experimentally achieved under optical lengths of 27.19 and 4.08 mm for the laser cavity and Fabry-Perot cavity respectively, corresponding to a fractional number of 20/3. A maximum output power of 162 mW is obtained at an incident pump power of 3.1 W.

Abstract
UNLABELLED The treatment outcomes of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and transformed acute myelogenous leukemia (tAML) remain very unsatisfactory. We designed a combination of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-mismatched hematopoietic stem cell microtransplantation (MST) with chemotherapy for patients with MDS and tAML and evaluated its effects and toxicity. Patients were between 13 and 79 years old. Patients with MDS (n=21) were given HLA-mismatched MST combined with decitabine and cytarabine; patients with tAML (n=22) were given HLA-mismatched MST combined with decitabine and cytarabine, and also mitoxantrone. Patients in complete remission (CR) also received MST plus decitabine and medium-dose cytarabine chemotherapy without graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis. The overall response rate of the patients with MDS was significantly higher than that of those with tAML (81% vs. 50%; p=.03). The CR rates were 52.4% and 36.4% in the two groups, respectively. There was no difference in the cytogenetic CR rate between the MDS and tAML groups (85.7% vs. 70%, respectively; p=.7). The 24-month overall survival of the patients with MDS was significantly higher than that of the patients with tAML (84.7% and 34.1%, respectively; p=.003). The median recovery times of neutrophils and platelets were, respectively, 14 and 17 days in the patients with MDS, and 16 and 19 days in those with tAML. The treatment-related mortality rates were 4.8% and 18.2%, respectively, in the MDS and tAML groups (p=.34). No GVHD was observed in any patient. Microtransplantation combined with decitabine and chemotherapy may provide a novel, effective, and safe treatment for high-risk MDS and tAML. SIGNIFICANCE Microtransplantation (MST) refers to regular chemotherapy combined with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor-mobilized peripheral blood stem cell infusion of human leukocyte antigen-mismatched donor cells without using immunosuppressive agents. It aims to support hematopoietic recovery and perform graft-versus-leukemia (GVL) effects but differs from traditional allogeneic stem cell transplantation because the rate of donor cell chimerism is low and there is and no graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) risk. Thus, a trial was designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of MST in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome and those with transformed acute myelogenous leukemia. Higher complete remission and cytogenetic complete response rates were observed, and the treatment improved disease progress-free survival, sped hematopoietic recovery, and avoided GVHD.

Abstract
Six stable QTL for resistance against L. maculans (phoma stem canker) have been identified by QTL × environment interaction analysis using data from five winter oilseed rape field experiments. Phoma stem canker, caused by Leptosphaeria maculans, is a disease of worldwide importance on oilseed rape (Brassica napus). Quantitative trait loci (QTL)-mediated resistance against L. maculans in B. napus is considered to be race non-specific and potentially durable. Identification and evaluation of QTL for resistance to L. maculans is important for breeding oilseed rape cultivars with durable resistance. An oilseed rape mapping population was used to detect QTL for resistance against L. maculans in five winter oilseed rape field experiments under different environments. A total of 17 QTL involved in 'field' quantitative resistance against L. maculans were detected and collectively explained 51% of the phenotypic variation. The number of QTL detected in each experiment ranged from two to nine and individual QTL explained 2-25% of the phenotypic variation. QTL × environment interaction analysis suggested that six of these QTL were less sensitive to environmental factors, so they were considered to be stable QTL. Markers linked to these stable QTL will be valuable for selection to breed for effective resistance against L. maculans in different environments, which will contribute to sustainable management of the disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the efficacy and safety of MA (mitoxantrone and cytarabine) regimen chemotherapy combined with granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF)-mobilized family related HLA-haploidentical donor peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cell (G-PBHSC) infusion for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients aged over 80 years. METHODS Four elderly patients with AML were treated in Chinese Second Artillery General Hospital from August 2008 to September 2013. The proportion of male to female was 1 : 3 and the median age 83 (80-85) years. All patients received programmed infusions of G-PBHSC after MA regimen chemotherapy without graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis. After complete remission (CR), patients only received G-PBHSC infusion without chemotherapy. RESULTS Three cases achieved CR and their disease free survival (DFS) time was 18, 8, 6 months, respectively. 1 case did not reach remission after 2 cycles chemotherapy. The median overall survival (OS) time was 10 (3-20) months. No GVHD was observed in any of the patients during treatment. Concludsion: The combination of chemotherapy and programmed haploidentical G-PBHSC infusion is an alternative approach for AML patients aged over 80 years.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to compare preoperative treatment using clopidogrel and ticagrelor for patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) undergoing emergent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), and to investigate the efficacy and safety of these medications in the management of AMI. PATIENTS AND METHODS Between February 2013 and December 2014, 74 patients with AMI admitted for emergent PCI therapy were included in the study and randomly divided into two groups: study group and control group. Patients in the study group received different pre-PCI treatment with a loading dose of 180 mg ticagrelor, and those in the control group received treatments with a loading dose of 600 mg clopidogrel. After PCI procedure, all patients were orally administered 75 mg clopidogrel once a day for maintenance therapy, and patients were monitored for one week at the hospital and further followed up for one month Platelet aggregation rates (PAR) of each patient was measured before medication, at 30 min, 2h, 24h and one week after medication, respectively. PAR, thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) flow, clinical outcomes and adverse reactions were compared between groups. RESULTS No significant differences were observed in PAR before treatment between groups (p>0.05), whereas PARs were significantly different after treatment between groups (p<0.05), with the efficacy of medications peaking at 2h after the treatment. In addition, PARs were significantly different between different time points after treatment (p<0.05). Evaluation of TIMI flow grade showed that in study group, 6 patients (16.22%) were grade 2 and 31 (83.78%) were grade 3 for the study group; for the control group, 11 patients (27.73%) were grade 2 and 26 (72.27%) were grade 3. No significant differences were observed in TIMI flow grades between different groups (p>0.05). No recurrence of the disease was observed, but one case (2.70%) of mucosal bleeding in the nasal cavity and four cases (10.81%) of vomiting were found in the study group. However, in the control group, four patients (10.81%) presented with recurrent disease, six patients (16.22%) experienced mucosal bleeding in the nasal cavity and 11 patients (29.73%) vomited. Significant differences were observed in the incidence of adverse events between different groups (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Compared with 600 mg clopidogrel, a loading dose of 180 mg ticagrelor could effectively inhibit platelet reactivity at the early stage of AMI, resulting in more favorable clinical outcomes and lower occurrence of adverse events and, thereby, can be used in clinical practice.

Abstract
Recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) is a common complication of pregnancy. Recent studies have demonstrated that the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) might play important roles in establishing and maintaining early pregnancy. In this study, we found that placental AhR protein levels were significantly lower and placental CYP1A1 mRNA levels were higher in unexplained RSA (URSA) patients than in control subjects. The results of immunohistochemical analyzes showed that placental AhR was expressed in syncytiotrophoblast cells and that the level of AhR was markedly lower in these cells in URSA subjects than in control subjects. β-Naphthoflavone (β-NF, an AhR ligand) at 5μM significantly inhibited proliferation and migration in HTR-8/SVneo cells and was associated with the activation of AhR. Moreover, overexpressing AhR in JAR cells significantly increased CYP1A1 mRNA levels and inhibited cell migration. These results indicate that AhR is highly activated in URSA placentas and that the activation of AhR in the placenta might impair trophoblast cell proliferation and migration, possibly leading to the occurrence of URSA.

Abstract
It is well known that the formation of amyloid fiber may cause invertible damage to cells, although the underlying mechanism has not been fully understood. In this article, a microscopic model considering the detailed processes of amyloid formation and cell damage is constructed based on four simple assumptions, one of which is that cell damage is raised by oligomers rather than mature fibrils. By taking the maximum entropy principle, this microscopic model in the form of infinite mass-action equations together with two reaction-convection partial differential equations (PDEs) has been greatly coarse-grained into a macroscopic system consisting of only five ordinary differential equations (ODEs). With this simple model, the effects of primary nucleation, elongation, fragmentation, and protein and seeds concentration on amyloid formation and cell damage have been extensively explored and compared with experiments. We hope that our results will provide new insights into the quantitative linkage between amyloid formation and cell damage.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the therapeutic efficacy of nonmyeloablative allogeneic hematopoietic stem cells transplantation for severe acquired aplastic anemia (SAA). METHODS Fourteen patients with severe acquired aplastic anemia received nonmyeloablative allogeneic hematopoietic stem cells transplantation from HLA matched sibling donors, among them 8 cases were dagnosed as SAA-I, 6 cases were diagnosed as SAA-II. The conditioning regimen consisted of fludarabine (FIUD), cyclophosphamide (CTX) and anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG/ALG). The prophylaxis for graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) was performed with cyclosporine (CsA) combined with mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) or tacrolimus (FK506). RESULTS All the patients gained a quick successfully engraftment of donor hametopoietic cells. The mean recovery time for neutrophil and platelet was 9 d and 13 d respectively. All the patients have acquired a full donor chimerism before 14 d. There were only 2 cases of GVHD: one out of them was acute skin GVHD (grade I) at day 70 after transplantation and the other was chronic liver GVHD (grade I) in 1 years after transplantation, the GVHD more than degree II did not coccur in all patients, 9 patients with bacterial and fungal mixed infection and (or) virus infection were observed, and improved after anti-infection therapy. The median follow-up time were 54.5 months (ranged between 5-144 months), and 12 patients remain disease-free survival currently, only 2 patients died of fungal infectin. CONCLUSION Transplantation of nonmyeloablative allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell is safe and effective for the treatment of severe acquired aplastic, but the prevention, treatment and monitoring of infection need to be enhance.
