[Analysis of cervical HPV infection in HIV positive Chinese women].

Objective: To investigate prevalence HPV infections in cervix among HIV-infected Chinese women.

Methods: From September 2009 to May 2011, 293 women with positive HIV underwent cervical cancer screening as study group matched with 200 women with negative HIV as control group. Questionnaires including demographic information and HIV associated information were collected, Pap smear and 23 subtype of HPV were performed in those women.

Epidemiologic risk profile of human papillomavirus infections in human immunodeficiency virus-positive Chinese women.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence and risk factors of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection among human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive women in China. To this end, we enrolled 200 HIV-positive and 182 HIV-negative women in this cross-sectional cohort study. The following sampling methods were used: (i) structured interview, (ii) CD4 cell counts, and (iii) cervical specimens.

[Nevirapine related hepatotoxicity: the prevalence and risk factors in a cohort of ART naive Han Chinese with AIDS].

Objective: To investigate the incidence of hepatotoxicity in acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) patients on combined anti-retroviral therapy (cART) containing nevirapine (NVP) and to assess the risk factors and its impact on cART.

Methods: 330 AIDS patients from March 2003 to June 2008 at local county were enrolled and a retrospective study using Kaplan-meier survival and Multivariate logistic regression modeling was conducted.

Results: 267 out of 330 patients received NVP based cART and 63 cases received EFV-based cART.

[Evaluation of fermentation character of alfalfa silage through near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS)].

It is very important to evaluate the fermentation character of alfalfa silage using near infrared reflectance spectroscopy technology (NIRS) for animal production, including the content of NH3-N, lactic acid, acetic acid and butyric acid in silage. In order to evaluate the feasibility of using NIRS to analyze the formation character of alfalfa silage, the near infrared reflectance spectroscopy models were built for NH3-N, lactic acid, zcetic acid and butyric acid in this experiment. Partial least square regression (PLS), Fourier transform technology and sample preparation with liquid nitrogen technology were used to optimize the model.

[Near infrared determination of dry hay quality in oats].

In the present paper, the analysis of the content of CP, NDF and ADF in the whole dry hay of oats was carried out by using near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) technique, and in combination with the partial least square (PLS) regression algorithm the calibration analysis was performed at the same time. The results showed that the calibration models developed by the spectral data pretreatment of the second derivative + Norris smoothing, the multivariate scattering correction + second derivative + Norris smoothing, and the multivariate scattering correction were the best for CP, NDF and ADF with the same spectral regions (9668-4518, 9550-5543, 8943-4042 cm(-1)). All these models yielded coefficients of determination of calibration (r2 cal) for CP and NDF that are both higher than 0.

[Evaluation of fresh sample of alfalfa silage through near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS)].

It is very important to evaluate the fresh sample of alfalfa silage using near infrared reflectance spectroscopy technology (NIRS) for animal production. The nutrient content of forage means the contents of dry matter (DM), crude protein (CP), neutral detergent fiber (NDF), and acid detergent fiber (ADF) in the forage. Because of the high moisture content, it is difficult to make uniform samples for fresh forage and to get useful information from the spectrum.
