Abstract
Objective: To understand the prevalence of Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) infection and its associated factors among asymptomatic outpatients attending sexually transmitted disease (STD)-related clinics in Shenzhen and provide evidence for development of future interventions. Methods: From April 15 to May 16, 2018, a cross-sectional study was conducted and patients attending STD-related Clinics were recruited from 22 medical institutions in Nanshan, Luohu, Bao'an, Longgang, Yantian, and Longhua districts of Shenzhen. After the informed consent from each participant was obtained, social-demographic information was collected through a structured questionnaire and urine samples were collected for CT nucleic acid detection. In addition, logistic regression was used to explore associated factors of CT infection. Results: In asymptomatic outpatients, the prevalence of CT infection was 7.16% (250/3 492). Being single (aOR=2.29, 95%CI:1.65-3.16), without registered Shenzhen residency (aOR=1.49, 95%CI:1.04-2.13), and without previous CT testing in the past year (aOR=2.04, 95%CI:1.03-4.05) were the risk factors of CT infection in asymptomatic outpatients. Among participants without registered Shenzhen residency, 89.25% (2 176/2 438) were college-degree or below, and 51.29% (1 255/2 447) were aged ≤30 years, and the risk of CT infection among those ≤30 years old was 1.73 times higher than those >30 years old (95%CI:1.28-2.34). Conclusions: The prevalence of CT infection was high among asymptomatic outpatients attending STD-related clinics in Shenzhen. Routine CT screening should be carried out for this population, especially for those with sexually active age, being single, with low educational level, and without previous CT testing in the past year. Also, raising their awareness of knowledge and adverse outcomes of CT infection should be considered to promote routine CT screening and timely treatment.

Abstract
Objective: To collect the current status and healthcare needs of people living with HIV (PLHIV) in China during the COVID-19 outbreak to inform quick response from government and communities. Methods: During February 5(th) to 10(th), 2020, a national anonymous survey was conducted using an online questionnaire among PLHIV at least 18 years of age and had started antiretroviral treatment (ART) to collect the information on COVID-19 prevention, HIV-related health services and the needs on psychosocial support. Current status and needs of people living with HIV were analyzed in Hubei and other regions. Results: A total of 1 014 valid questionnaires were collected, with PLHIV respondents cross the country. The survey revealed that 93.79% of the respondents could obtain information regarding the prevention of COVID-19 from their communities or villages. Respondents were concerned with HIV-specific protective measures and personal protective equipment shortage. 32.64% of all respondents were not carrying sufficient antiretroviral medicines (ARVs) to meet the needs under traffic and travel restrictions, and some could face stock-outs in the coming month. In Hubei province where 53 respondents needed ARV refill, 64.15% reported difficulty accessing ARV due to the "blockage" . 28.93% respondents were in need of sociopsychological support, and 85.31% anticipated further improvement of the out-of-town ARV refill process from the government. Conclusion: PLHIV wants to know HIV-specific protective measures against COVID-19 outbreak. PLHIV who returned to their home-towns and affected by the lock-downs reported challenges with refills. We should undertake a more systematic study on impacts of the COVID-19 on PLHIV to develop preparedness capacity for future public health emergency.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To observe the dynamic changes in collagen type I and collagen type III in rabbits with schistosomiasis japonica and the treatment effect of gamma-interferon on the degradation of collagens in schistosomal hepatic fibrosis. METHODS Each rabbit was infected with 80 +/- 1 S. japonicum cercariae. Liver operations were done at different time points after infection and the liver specimens were embedded with paraffin and stained with alpha-SMA, HE and picric acid-Sirius red. The stained slides were observed under polarizing microscope and different collagen areas calculated by computer imagine analysis system. At the 16th week after infection, the infected rabbits received a single dose of praziquantel and gamma-interferon for 8 weeks. RESULTS The area percent of collagen type I at the 28th week after infection (40.14 +/- 17.00) increased about seven fold compared with the 8th week group (5.73 +/- 3.40). The area percent of collagen type III at the 28th week after infection (6.80 +/- 5.19) increased about six fold compared with the 8th week group (1.15 +/- 1.34). The alpha-SMA positive cells also increased significantly. After gamma-interferon treatment, the area percent of collagen type I and type III decreased significantly, from 18.51 +/- 7.52 and 4.63 +/- 3.64 (before treatment) to 3.09 +/- 1.54 and 0.40 +/- 0.37 (0 and 4 weeks after treatment) (P < 0.01). However, after the withdrawl of gamma-interferon treatment, the collagen degradation was reversible. CONCLUSION Gamma-interferon is effective in the treatment of hepatic fibrosis in rabbits infected with S. japonicum, the effect being reversible.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the antifibrotic effect of different doses of recombinant human Gamma-Interferon (IFN-gamma) in two rat models of hepatic fibrosis, and to observe its effect on moderate chronic hepatitis B virus fibrosis. METHODS Hepatic fibrosis was successfully induced in 150 and 196 rats by subcutaneous injection of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) and intraperitoneal injection of dimethylnitrosamine (DMN), respectively. Each of the two model groups was divided into: (1) fibrotic model group; (2) colchicine treatment group (0.1 mg/kg/day, gastrogavage for 8 weeks); (3) high-dose IFN-gamma group (15 MU/kg per day, i.m. for 8 weeks); (4) medium-dose IFN-gamma group (5 MU/kg daily, i.m. for 8 weeks); and (5) Y low-dose IFN-gamma group (1.67 MU/kg daily, i.m. for 8 weeks). Another group of 10 rats without any treatment was used as normal controls. At the end of the experiment, semi-quantitative histopathological scores of inflammation and fibrosis, liver alpha smooth muscle actin (alpha-SMA) expression level, liver hydroxyl proline content and serum hyaluronic acid levels were compared. And 47 medium chronic hepatitis B viral fibrosis patients were studied. They were given IFN-gamma treatment, 100 MU/day i.m. for the first three months and 100 MU qod i.m. for the next six months. Semi-quantitative pathological scores of inflammation and fibrosis and serum hepatic fibrosis indices were compared within the 9 months. RESULTS In animal experiment, the pathological fibrosis scores and liver hydroxyl proline content were found to be significantly lower in rats treated with different doses of IFN-gamma as compared with rats in fibrotic model group induced by either CCl4 or DMN, in a dose-dependent manner. For CCl4-induced model, pathological fibrosis scores in high, medium and low doses IFN-gamma groups were 5.10 +/- 2.88, 7.70 +/- 3.53 and 8.00 +/- 3.30, respectively, but the score was 14.60 +/- 7.82 in fibrotic model group. Hydroxyl proline contents were 2.83 +/- 1.18, 3.59 +/- 1.22 and 4.80 +/- 1.62, in the three IFN-gamma groups, and 10.01 +/- 3.23 in fibrotic model group. The difference was statistically significant (P<0.01). Similar results were found in DMN-induced model. Pathological fibrosis scores were 6.30 +/- 0.48, 8.10 +/- 2.72 and 8.30 +/- 2.58, in high, medium and low doses IFN-gamma groups, and 12.60 +/- 3.57 in fibrotic model group. Hydroxyl proline contents were 2.72 +/- 0.58, 3.14 +/- 0.71 and 3.62 +/- 1.02, in the three IFN-gamma groups, and 12.79 +/- 1.54 in fibrotic model group. The difference was statistically significant (P<0.01). Serum hepatic fibrosis indices decreased significantly in the 47 patients after IFN-gamma treatment (HA: 433.38 +/- 373.00 vs 281.57 +/- 220.48; LN: 161.22 +/- 41.02 vs 146 +/- 35 +/- 44. 67; PC III: 192.59 +/- 89.95 vs 156.98 +/- 49.22; C-I: 156.30 +/- 44.01 vs 139.14 +/- 34.47) and the differences between the four indices were significant (P <0.05). Thirty-three patients received two liver biopsies, one before and one after IFN-gamma treatment. In thirty of 33 patients IFN-gamma had better effects according to semi-quantitative pathological scores (8.40 +/- 5.83 vs 5.30 +/- 4.05, P<0.05). CONCLUSION All the three doses of IFN-gamma are effective in treating rat liver fibrosis induced by either CCl4 or DMN, the higher the dose, the better the effect. And IFN-gamma is effective for patients with moderate chronic hepatitis B viral fibrosis.

Abstract
The mechanisms that control the dissolution rates of chemical compounds in liquids have long been of interest to pharmaceutical scientists. Generally, control of the dissolution rate can be classified as being by interfacial reaction rate or by the rate of mass transport. Little work has been done in the area of sparingly soluble compounds dissolving in nonpolar organic solvents. In this study the dissolution of three isomers of methylacetanilide was investigated in three nonpolar organic solvents (hexane, heptane, and cyclohexane). The dissolution apparatus used a flat plate into which the nondisintegrating tablet could be placed so that dissolution occurred only from one face of the tablet. Agitation was provided by a four-bladed stirrer whose outer edge was 2 cm from the tablet surface. Dissolution data were collected only for concentrations less than 5% of the saturation solubility of the given compound in the given solvent. All dissolution profiles were linear. Dissolution rates were obtained from the slopes of these plots. Plots of In (dissolution rate) versus In (stirring speed) were also linear and yielded slopes that were close to the value of 0.50 predicted by the convective diffusion model employed.
