OBJECTIVE:To explore the effects of Kangfuxin liquid combined with Oral ulcer powder on inflammatory cyto-kines and therapeutic efficacy of recurrent aphthous ulcer. METHODS:134 patients with recurrent aphthous ulcer were randomly divided into observation group and control group,with 67 cases in each group. Both groups received routine treatment;control group was additionally given Oral ulcer powder,q2 h;observation group was additionally given Kangfuxin liquid,10 ml/time,gar-gling for 5-10 min and then swallowing slowly,tid. Treatment course of 2 groups lasted for 7 d. Clinical symptoms,serum inflam-matory cytokines,clinical symptom improvement and recurrence were observed in 2 groups. RESULTS:Total effective rate of ob-servation group was 95.52%,which was significantly higher than that of control group(82.09%),with statistical significance(P<0.05). The levels of TNF-α,IL-1 and IL-6 in observation group were significantly lower than those of control group,with statisti-cal significance(P<0.05);ulcer duration and VAS score of observation group were significantly shorter or lower than those of con-trol group,with statistical significance(P<0.05);after followed up for 6 months,recurrence rate of observation group(11.94%) was significantly lower than that of control group(31.34%),with statistical significance(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Kangfuxin liquid combined with Oral ulcer powder helps to lower levels of inflammatory cytokines of patients with recurrent aphthous ulcer, relieve the clinical symptoms,then improve therapeutic efficacy and reduce recurrence rate.

Objective To investigate the genetic damage of human bronchial epithelial cells (HBE) caused by cigarette smoke combined with nano-TiO2.Methods 16-HBE cells were exposed to cigarette smoke extract (CSE) and nano-TiO2(mg/L) at the doses of 0 mg/L CSE+0 mg/L nano-TiO2,50 mg/L CSE+0 mg/L nano-TiO2,75 mg/L CSE+0 mg/L nano-TiO2,100 mg/L CSE+0 mg/L nano-TiO2,0 mg/L CSE+10 mg/L nano-TiO2,50 mg/L CSE+10 mg/L nano-TiO2,75 mg/L CSE+10 mg/L nano-TiO2,100 mg/L CSE+10 mg/L nano-TiO2. After 24 h exposure,HBE viability was evaluated by the methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay,single cell gel electrophoresis (SCGE,comet assay) was employed to assess DNA damage,chromosomal aberration was measured by micronucleus test. Results Except the group exposed to 10 mg/L nano-TiO2,HBE viability of the other treatment groups were lower than that of the control group and Comet % of the other treatment groups were higher than that of the control group (P

Objective To study the change of bone ?-carboxyglutamic acid containing protein(BGP) in serum of rats at the initial stage of skeletal fluorosis caused by fluoride in coal.Methods SD rats were randomly divided into 6 groups (the number of female and male in each group was the same respectively):the control group,the low-dose fluoride group,the middle-dose fluoride added nutrition group,the middle-dose fluoride group,the high-dose fluoride added nutrition group,the high-dose fluoride group.All rats in the experimental groups were fed on the corn collected from the prevalent areas and contained different contents of fluoride respectively for 90-100 days.Content of fluoride in the urine,bone,kidney,BGP in serum,bone mineral density (BMD)and calcium in the bone and urine were determined.Results The fluorosis of the rats became more serious as fluoride intake increased.On the condition of same fluoride intake,the fluorosis could be relieved if nutrients added.BGP in serum of rats in each experimental groups had a increase trend,at the earlier stage,BGP of the high-dose group was higher than that of the control group (P

Objective To determine the serum level of KL-6 in patients with polymyositis(PM)and dermatomyositis(DM),and to investigate the possible diagnostic value for interstitial lung diseases(ILD)in pa- tients with PM/DM.Methods Serum KL-6 concentrations were measured by ELISA in 53 adult PM/DM pa- tients,the control groups of 22 patients with infectious lung disease,and 50 healthy subjects.The association with clinical features and serum KL-6 levels was analyzed.Results The serum levels of KL-6 were(1543?761)、(429?106)、(336?196)and(289?105)U/ml in PM/DM patients with ILD and without ILD,patients with infectious lung disease and healthy controls,respectively.Serum KL-6 levels in the PM/DM patients with ILD were significantly higher compared with PM/DM patients without ILD,patients with infectious lung disease and healthy controls(all P＜0.01 ).However,no significant differences of serum KL-6 levels was found among PM/ DM patients without ILD,patients with infectious lung disease and healthy controls(P＞0.05).Significant cor- relations were found between the elevated levels of serum KL-6 and the presence of ILD in patients with PM/ DM(P＜0.01).The sensitivity and specificity of serum abnormal KL-6 levels for ILD in patients with PM/DM were 90.9% and 80.6%.Additionally,follow-up study showed the mean serum levels of KL-6 in six patients who died were significantly higher than that in other PM/DM patients with ILD(P＜0.01).Conclusion Serum KL-6 level is a reliable serum marker for ILD in idiopathic inflammatory myopathies,which may contribute to early differentiate ILD from lung infectious disease.Increased serum level of KL-6 may predict a poor out- come.
