Chinese Medical Ethics 1995;0(04):-
Based on the behavior and the social group,STD cases were devided into the active and passive STD cases. Even through,how the doctor take attidude to those cases, what the medical ethics should be taken by doctor,here we discussing in detail, those case should be treated not only in Bio-medical but also in Sociology. Otherwise, those cases should be pretected in human right, dignity, honour and the privacy.

Objective To detect the quantity of Th17 cells and expressions of related cytokines including interleukin (IL)-17 and IL-22, in peripheral blood and skin lesions of patients with psoriasis vulgaris, and to analyze their correlation with disease severity and clinical course. Methods Peripheral blood was obtained from 44 patients with progressive psoriasis vulgaris and 28 normal human controls. Three-color flow cytometry was carried out to detect the quantity of Th17 cells, and ELISA to examine the levels of serum IL-17 and -22.Skin samples were obtained from 20 patients with psoriasis vulgaris and 8 normal human controls, and a quantum dot-based double labled immumofluorescence method was used to determine the quantity of Th17 cells.Results The percentage of peripheral blood Th17 cells was higher in patients with psoriasis vulgaris than in normal human controls (4.71% ± 2.55% vs. 0.55% ± 0.39%, P < 0.01 ). Elevated expressions of IL-17 and IL-22 were noted in the patients compared with the normal human controls (24.02 ± 12.31 ng/L vs. 7.16 ±4.04 ng/L, P < 0.05; 18.32 ± 8.14 ng/L vs. 6.52 ± 4.15 ng/L, P < 0.01 ). The percentage of peripheral blood Th17 cells and serum levels of IL-17 and IL-22 were positively correlated with psoriasis area and severity index (r= 0.53, 0.47, 0.53, respectively, all P < 0.01 ), but unrelated to the clinical course of psoriasis (r = 0.09,0.03, 0.19, respectively, all P > 0.05). There was an infiltrate of Th17 cells in psoriatic lesions, which was mainly distributed around the blood vessels in superficial dermis, whereas there were only a small number of CD4+ T cells in the normal control skin with the absence of Th17 cells. Conclusions Th17 cells are involved in the development of psoriasis, and Th17 cell-secreted cytokines, such as IL-17 and IL-22, may serve as a new therapeutic target for psoriasis.

Objective To investigate microRNA(miRNA)expression profiles in peripheral blood and skin lesions of patients with psoriasis vulgaris(PV), and to seek miRNAs consistently expressed in peripheral blood and skin lesions. Methods A miRNA microarray was used to screen differentially expressed miRNAs in skin lesions and peripheral blood samples between 17 patients with PV and 4 healthy human controls, and real?time fluorescence?based quantitative PCR(RT?qPCR)to verify the differentially expressed miRNAs. The correlations of these differentially expressed miRNAs with psoriasis area and severity index(PASI)score were assessed by Pearson correlation analysis. Results The Agilent human miRNA microarray profiling revealed 15 miRNAs consistently expressed in skin lesions and peripheral blood of patients with PV. Of the 15 miRNAs, 7 were verified as consistently expressed miRNAs by RT?qPCR. Among the 7 miRNAs, the expression intensity of miR?30e?5p, miR?192?5p, miR?17?3p and miR?1227?5p was negatively correlated with PASI scores(all P<0.05), while that of miR?125b?5p, miR?642a?5p and miR?29a?5p was uncorrelated with PASI scores(all P>0.05). Conclusion Some miRNAs are consistently expressed in skin lesions and plasma of PV patients, which are expected to serve as biomarkers for evaluation of psoriasis severity.

Diabetic foot ulcer is one of the most serious complications of diabetes mellitus, which leads to a very high rate of amputation. How to deal with diabetic foot ulcer becomes a difficult issue for the clinical wound treatment. We reviewed the related literatures in recent years and summarized the experience of traditional Chinese external therapies such as debridement, fumigating and washing therapy, wet dressing therapy, hoop around therapy, thread-drawing therapy and plaster-covering therapy.

Objective Objective To evaluate the efficacy of Heqi San combined with metformin in the treatment of obese polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Methods A total of 60 patients with obese polycystic ovary syndrome who met the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into 2 groups, 30 patients in each group. The control group was treated with metformin, and the treatment group was treated with Heqi San on the basis of the control group. Both groups were treated for 3 months. The FPG was determined by glucose oxidase method, and fasting insulin (FINS), TC, TG, LDL-C, HDL-C level were measured by radio immunoassay, and the insulin resistance index (IR) was measured by the method of HOMA-IR. The luteotropic hormone (LH), pro follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and testosterone (T) were detected by the automatic electrochemical light detector, and the ratio of LH/FSH was calculated. The ovarian volume and body mass index changes and clinical effect were evaluated. Results After treatment, the BMI (20.09 ± 3.12 kg/cm2 vs. 23.39 ± 1.43 kg/cm2, t=6.889), FPG (4.44 ± 0.17 mmol/L vs. 4.74 ± 0.16 mmol/L, t=6.945), FINS (10.69 ± 2.41 IU/L vs. 16.29 ± 5.95 IU/L, t=4.778), TC (3.91 ± 0.50 mmol/L vs. 4.20 ± 0.39 mmol/L, t=2.505), LDL-C (2.64 ± 0.63 mmol/L vs. 3.18 ± 0.62 mmol/L, t=3.346), LH (8.70 ± 2.44 U/L vs. 10.27 ± 2.69 U/L, t=2.934), the ratio of LH/FSH (1.33 ± 0.58 vs. 2.18 ± 0.56, t=5.775), T (1.73 ± 0.74 nmol/L vs. 2.95 ± 1.10 nmol/L, t=5.040) and ovarian volume (12.61 ± 2.29 mm3 vs. 14.26 ± 2.52 mm3, t=6.982) in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.01 or P<0.05). The FSH (7.33 ± 2.28 U/L vs. 5.95 ± 1.20 U/L, t=2.934) in the treatment group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). The total effective rate in the treatment group was 83.3% (25/30) and 63.3% (19/30) in the control group. The difference between the 2 groups was statistically significant (χ2=3.068, P=0.050). Conclusions The Heqi San combined with metformin can effectively improve the body mass index, glucose metabolism, lipid metabolism index and sex hormone level, and reduce the volume of ovary in patients with PCOS, and the curative effect is better than that of oral metformin alone.
