Objective To detect the infection rate of human papillomavirus (HPV) types in keratoacanthoma (KA) tissue, and to study the distribution of HPV DNA-positive cells. Methods In situ hybridization was performed to detect HPV subtypes 6/11, 16/18, and 31/33 in paraffin-embeded tissue samples from 46 patients with KA and 34 nomal human controls. Results Mucosal HPV DNA was positive in 31 (67.39%)of the 46 KA samples, and mixed infection rate of HPV amounted to 83.87% (26/31) in these positive samples.The DNA of tested mucosal HPV types existed mainly in episomal status. Positive reactions were observed within or at the edge of nuclei. HPV infected cells showed a stripe-, slice-like or focal distribution mainly in superficial middle lamina of spinous layer at the bottom or lateral margin of crater-shaped epidermal depression. No mucosal HPV DNA was noted in normal control samples. Conclusions Compared with normal controls, patients with KA are infected with mucosal HPV at a higher frequency, and mucosal HPV DNA mainly exists in episomal status in KA tissue, hinting that HPV infection play a certain role in the pathogenesis of KA.

Objective To evaluate the clinical pathology meaning of atypical squamous cell of undetermined significance (ASCUS) in cervical cytology. Methods The clinical data of 2118 cases who underwent cervical liquid thin-prep cell test (TCT) were analyzed retrospectively, ASCUS and squamous epithelium (SIL) were diagnosed according to the classification of the data TBS cytology, the histopathological examination results were tracked. Results The incidence of ASCUS was 3.4% (72/2218), and the ratio for SIL ( 1.2%, 25/2118) was 2.9. In the cellular pathology of ASCUS, there were four aspects, atypical surface cells and atypical hollowed cells in 16 cases (22.2%), atypical atrophy of the squamous epithelial cells in 11 cases (15.3%), atypical mature or immature metaplastic cells 28 cases (38.9%), atypical cells less influence diagnosis 17 cases (23.6%). Tracking the histologic findings in 43 cases with chronic cervicitis 22 cases (51.2%), low level squamous epithelium neoplasia in 12 cases (27.9%), high levels of squamous epithelial change in 8 cases (18.6%), squamous cell carcinoma 1 case(2.3%). Conclusion ASCUS exists within the risk of squamous lesions, management should be strengthened.

Objective To explore the role of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection in the etiology of drug eruption. Methods PCR-Southern blot was used to detect EBV-specific DNA fragment BamH I -W in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of 32 patients with drug eruption and 30 age- and sex-matched normal controls. The mRNA expression of EBV lyric gene BZLF1 in EBV DNA-positive samples was measured by RT-PCR and Southern blot. ELISA was performed to detect EBV virus capsule antigen (VCA)-specific IgM. Results The positivity rate of EBV DNA was significantly higher in patients with drug eruption than in normal controls (78.13% (25/32) vs 10.00% (3/30), P < 0.01), while no significant difference was noted between patients with severe and mild drug eruption (P > 0.05). The expression of BZLF1 mRNA was detected in 3 out of 25 EBV DNA-positive patients; of the 3 patients, 1 suffered from mild drug eruption, and 2 from severe drug eruption. EBV VCA-specific IgM was observed in 6 of 32 patients with drug eruption, but not in any normal controls. No significant difference in the positivity rate of EBV VCA-specific lgM existed between patients with severe and mild drug eruption (P > 0.05). Conclusions There is an active infection of EBV in patients with drug eruption. EBV infection is probably an environmental factor affecting the development of drug eruption.

The activity of plasma prolidase(PLD)was determined in patients with various chronic liver diseases.It was found that the activity of plasma PLD was increased significantly in 45 patients with cirrhosis and 31 patients with chronic active hepatitis.The plasma level of PLD was not correlated with the serum level of ALP.Plasma PLD was negatively correlated with serum albumin and positively correlated with serum gammablobulin.These findings suggest that the determination of the activity of plasma prolidase may be helpful in the diagnosis of chronic liver diseases.

Objective To assess the diagnostic significance of T cell receptor gamma gene rearrangemerits in mycosis fungoides (MF), so as to develop a sensitive diagnosis tool. Methods A total of 50 specimens were collected, including 33 skin lesion specimens and 2 lymph specimens from 30 patients with MF,15 skin lesion specimens from 15 patients with inflammatory dermatoses. PCR was performed with specific primers targeting TCR V gamma 8, 9, 10, 11 to detect T cell receptor gamma gene rearrangement. Results Monoclonai rearrangements of TCR gene was observed in 88% (29/33) of specimens from patients with MF and 33% (5/15) of samples from patients with inflammatory dermatoses. Conclusions The detection of TCR gene rearrangements, as an ancillary test, is useful in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of MF.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of warm needling in treating chronic prostatitis due to kidney-yang deficiency.Method Seventy-eight patients with chronic prostatitis due to kidney-yang deficiency were randomized into a treatment group of 40 cases and a control group of 38 cases. The treatment group was intervened by warm needling, while the control group was by oral administration of Terazosin hydrochloride tablets. The National Institutes of Health Chronic Prostatitis Symptom Index (NIH-CPSI) and white blood cell (WBC) count in prostatic fluid were observed before and after treatment, and the clinical efficacies were compared.Result The total effective rate was 92.5% in the treatment group versus 76.3% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The NIH-CPSI scores and WBC counts were significantly changed in both groups after treatment (P<0.05). After treatment, the NIH-CPSI score of the treatment group was significantly different from that of the control group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in comparing the WBC count between the two groups after treatment (P>0.05).Conclusion Warm needling is an effective approach in treating chronic prostatitis due to kidney-yang deficiency.

Objective: To explore myocardial protection effect of artificial subhibernation therapy on rabbits with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and its possible mechanism. Methods: A total of 24 rabbits were randomly and equally divided into sham operation group, AMI control group and AMI subhibernation group. Changes of their body temperature, heart rate and respiratory frequency were observed. Serum concentration of creatine kinase isoenzyme (CK-MB) was measured by immunosuppression method, and plasma concentration of norepinephrine (NE) was measured by high performance liquid chromatography-electrochemical method. Percentage of myocardial infarct area in left ventricular area (I/LV) and apoptosis index (AI) were compared between two AMI groups. Results: Compared with control group 4 h after establishment of AMI model, there were significant decrease in body temperature [(37.333±0.427)℃ vs. (34.988±0.488)℃], I/LV [(19.281±1.687)% vs. (16.263±2.275)%] and AI [(36.636±1.671)% vs. (34.521±1.356)%], and concentration of CK-MB [(759.863±64.111)U/L vs. (560.225±65.837)U/L] and NE [(200.475±43.581) ng/ml vs. (143.813±43.383) ng/ml] in subhibernation group, P<0.05,or <0.01, but there were no significant changes in heart rate and respiratory frequency between two groups. Conclusion: Artificial subhibernation therapy possesses significant myocardial protection effect on rabbits with acute myocardial infarction through reducing stress response, inducing low temperature and inhibiting cell apoptosis etc.
