Objective To systematically analyze therapeutic effects of extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) on refractory steroid-resistant,-dependent or-intolerant graft-versus-host disease (GVHD),to compare remission rates of skin GVHD in detail.Methods Databases were searched for studies concerning remission rates of GVHD after the treatment with ECP,and relevant data were extracted and pooled by using meta-analysis with STATA 12.0 software.Results A total of 22 literatures were reviewed,including 787 patients with refractory GVHD.Meta-analysis showed that the pooled complete remission (CR) rate and overall remission (OR) rate were 57％ (95％ CI:47％-66％) and 79％ (71％-86％) respectively in patients with acute GVHD,27％ (21％-33％) and 63％ (58％-69％) respectively in patients with chronic GVHD,77％ (71％-82％) and 87％ (82％-91％) in patients with acute skin GVHD,as well as 39％ (30％-48％) and 70％ (63％-77％) in patients with chronic skin GVHD.Conclusion ECP is an effective therapy for refractory GVHD,especially for skin GVHD.

Continuous renal replacement therapy( CRRT) employs convection and adsorption to re-move pro-and anti-inflammatory mediators from plasma, helping to restore the immunologic homeostasis. CRRT also provide uninterrupted clearance of retained endogenous and exogenous toxins, along with acid-base,electrolyte,hemodynamics and volume homeostasis.CRRT may improve outcomes in critically ill pa-tients with sepsis-induced acute kidney injury,septic shock and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome.Region-al citrate anticoagulation, as compared to unfractionated heparin, report better filter survival times and less bleeding.Antibiotic dosing decisions should be individualized to take into account patient-related,CRRT-relat-ed,and drug-related factors.

Objective To explore the changes of the levels of CA-125 antigen(CA125) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in serum and peritoneal fluid in patients with endometriosis (EMT), and the relationship with EMT. Methods One hundred and twenty patients with EMT (EMT group)and 98 patients with uterine fibroids (control group) were enrolled in this study. The levels of CA125 and VEGF in serum and peritoneal fluid were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and the results were compared. Results The levels of serum CA125,VEGF in EMT group were significantly higher than those in control group:(40.31±11.14) kU/L vs.(24.71±9.19) kU/L,(59.75±6.87) ng/L vs. (36.38±8.12) ng/L, there were significant differences(P<0.05). The levels of serum CA125,VEGF inⅠ-Ⅱphase andⅢ-Ⅳphase in EMT group had no significant differences ( P>0.05). The levels of peritoneal fluid CA125,VEGF in EMT group were significantly higher than those in control group:(311.46± 107.29) kU/L vs.(158.17± 55.42) kU/L,(73.28 ±10.40) ng/L vs. (40.21 ±9.84) ng/L, there were significant differences (P<0.05). The levels of peritoneal fluid CA125,VEGF in Ⅲ-Ⅳ phase were significantly higher than those in Ⅰ-Ⅱ phase in EMT group:(387.41±70.91) kU/L vs. (308.42±81.21) kU/L, (69.22±7.13) ng/L vs. (55.44±8.23) ng/L, there were significant differences (P<0.05). In EMT group, the levels of CA125 and VEGF in serum were significantly lower those in peritoneal fluid:(40.31±11.14) kU/L vs. (311.46±107.29) kU/L, (59.75±6.87) ng/L vs. (73.28 ±10.40) ng/L, there were significant differences (P<0.05). Conclusions The levels of CA125 and VEGF in serum and peritoneal fluid are closely related to EMT. Peritoneal fluid in monitoring of EMT may be more sensitive and reliable than serum.

Objective To investigate the mycoplasma pneumoniae(MP) infection of the respiratory tract infection in children,the macrolide-resistant situation and resistance mechanism of MP. Methods The cultured throat swab specimens were obtained from 80 pediatric outpatients with respiratory tract infection from Dec.2008 to Mar.2009 in Beijing friendship hospital.The 23S rRNA gene of throat swab specimens and positive-cultured specimens were amplified using nested-PCR,and the products were further verified by electrophoresis and DNA sepuencing,which were collected from the outpatients.The specimens were divided into 2 groups depending on the findings of the gene sequencing whether they had gene mutation:sensitive and resistance group.The DNA sequence of samples were compared to the sequence of MP reference strain in genbank in order to findout MP drug resistant gene.The differences in macrolids therapy were investigated between 2 groups before the throat swab obtained.The drug resistance rates were compared between outpatients and inpatients. Results Thirty-two throat swab specimens were proved to be MP by direct nested-PCR,and 8 throat speeimens were proved to be MP by isolation and culrures.Total 33 cases(including 1 was positive-culture but nagative-direct PCR) were proved to be MP positive.Sixteen were identical to the M129 standard sequence,and 17 had point mutation in gene of 23S rRNA V region.Ten had A to G mutation at position 2063,3 had A to G mutation at position 2064,2 had A to G mutation at position 2067,1 had G to A mutation at position 2062,1 had A to T mutation at position 2063.There was no significant difference between the sensitive and resistance group in whether had macrolids before the throat swab obtained(P =0.909).And there was no significant difference in MP drug resistance rate between outpatients and inpatients(P =0.459). Conclusions The major mutation were A2063G and A2064G,and A2063T,A2067G,G2062A were newly found mutation points which were possibly related to macrolids resistance.

Objective To clarify the involvement of the free fatty acids(FFA)and lipid peroxida-tion in rat pancreatic tissue during the development of pancreatic injuries inducecd by long-term high-fat diet.Mehtods The male Sprague-Dawley rats (n=72) were randomized into 6 groups (n=12).One group (group control) received standard chow for 18 weeks, the other five groups (group HFD) were fed with a high-fat diet respectively for 2, 4, 6, 10 and 18 weeks.Serum TG and TCH, the his-topathological changes, pancreatic malondialdehyde (MDA) content, superoxide dismutase (SOD) ac-tivity and the concentration of free fatty acids in pancreatic tissues were examined.Pancreatic fibrosis was assessed using Sirius Red staining.The expression of desmin, a smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), platelet-derived growth factor receptor type β (PDGFRβ) and transforming growth factor131 (TGFβ1) was determined with immunohistochemistry.Results Pancreatic MDA content, the number of desmin and α-SMA positive cells were significantly increased in all the HFD groups.The FFA content, PDGFRβ, and TGFβ1 in pancreatic tissues increased in rats of 2, 4 and 6 week HFD groups accompa-nied with typical histological alternations including edema, capillary vessels hyperplasia, and focal aci-nar degeneration, vaculation of acinar and islet cells.In 6, 10 and 18 weeks HFD groups, the lesions had progressed and acinar cell atrophy, fatty replacement, deposition of hemosiderin, and interstitial collagen deposition were observed.Conclusions The increased amounts of FFA and lipid peroxidant in pancreatic tissues are associated with pancreatic cell injuryies and synthesis of collagen by activated PSCs during the chronic high-fat diet intake.

Objective To evaluate the effects of the synthetic osteogenic growth peptide (sOGP) on the healing of tibial fractures in rabbits. Methods Fifty two tibial fracture models were produced in the tibiae of New Zealand white rabbits and immobilized with a 2 mm diameter Kirschner wire as intramedullary nail and grouped by random. sOGP was administered to experimental animals by intravenous injection (0.5 ?g?kg-1 ?d-1) from the first day after surgery until the day before sacrifice, while the control animals were injected with saline solution. 3-5 rabbits from each group were killed at 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 weeks after fracture. The serum was obtained to determine the level of ALP and BGP by biochemistry and RIA respectively. The bone mineral density at fracture healing site was detected by DXA, the anteroposterior and lateral radiographs were taken, the histological examination was done and quantitative analysis of the callus area and the relative amounts of bone, cartilage, and fibrous tissue in the callus of each section were calculated by computer program. The 6 weeks tibial sample were tested biomechanically by universal material test machine. Results The serum ALP, BGP level were higher in sOGP injected groups than those in the controls. All tibia osteotomies healed uneventfully on radiograph. The area of the external callus was larger in the experimental groups than that in controls at 3,4 weeks after fracture; the average area was 265.44 mm2 at 3 weeks, 233.10 mm2 at 4 weeks in the experimental groups compared with that of 209.95 mm2 at 3 weeks and 209.21 mm2 at 4 weeks in the controls. The average bone mineral density at fracture healing site was slightly greater in the experimental group at 3,4,6 weeks, and the difference of the bone mineral density at 4 weeks has statistical significance (P
