Medical charts of tuberculotic patients with secondary autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) admitted to Peking Union Medical College Hospital (PUMCH)from 2006 to 2015 were retrospectively reviewed.Four cases with complete information of laboratory tests,imaging findings and bone marrow results were included.Therapy regimens and outcomes of survival were followed by phone call if needed.Ages at diagnosis of AIHA were 58-80 years old,hemoglobin levels were 31-73 g/L,Coomb tests were negative in all cascs.Thcrapy of cortical steroid did not work,while anti-TB therapy (including isoniazid,rifampicin,ethambutol) significantly improved hemoglobin to normal level in three cases during six to nine months.One case died within one week,for progressive TB to central neurological system.As one of rarc complications of TB,AIHA may be fatal.Early diagnosis and appropriately anti-TB therapy is helpful for good outcomes.

Objective To compare the effects of pre-emptive epidural analgesia and postoperative epiclural analgesia on stress response to upper abdominal surgery. Methods Thirty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients undergoing elective upper abdominal surgery performed under general anesthesia were randomly divided into 2 groups (n = 15 each): Ⅰ pre-emptive epidural analgesia group (group P) and Ⅱ postoperative epidural analgesia group (group C). A mixture of 0.5 μg/ml sufentanil and 0.15% ropivacaine 250 ml was used for epidural analgesia in both groups. The epidural catheter was placed at T_(10-11) interspace. The epidural regimen included a loading dose of 15 ml followed after 30 min by continuous epidurai infusion at 5 ml/h for 50 h. In group P the epidural analgesia was started at 20 min before skin incision, while in group C after operation when the patients emerged from general anesthesia and were extubated. The depth of general anesthesia was monitored using CSI and maintained at 45-55. Vcnoas blood samples were taken before epidnral catheter was placed (T_0, baseline), at 2 h (T_1) and at 18 h (T_2) after operation for determination the concentrations of ACTH and cortisol (Cor) and C reaction protein (CLIP). Results Blood Cor, ACTH and CRP concentrations were significantly increased after operation as compared with the baseline values at T0 and were significantly lower at T_1 and T_1 in group P than in group C. Conclusion Pre-emptive epidural analgesia can more effectively inhibit stress response than postoperative epidural analgesia to upper abdominal surgery.

Objective To detect the mutations in coding region of the guanosine triphosphate cyclohydrolase Ⅰ (GCH1) gene in Chinese patients with dopa-responsive dystonia (DRD).Methods Two families with five affected family members and six patients with sporadic DRD were examined, as well as their eighteen relatives and twenty normal members. Mutation screening was performed using single-strand conformation polymorphism analysis followed by direct sequencing of the presumably mutated exons; in patients whose results showed a normal pattern on single-strand conformation polymorphism analysis, the entire coding region of the GCH1 gene was sequenced. To confirm the mutation, a pair of primers was designed, which produced a restrictive site for SphI.Results DNA sequencing revealed a new heterozygous A224G missense mutation (Tyr75Cys) located within exon 1 in one family with autosomal-dominant inheritance. The mutation was confirmed with restriction enzyme analysis; it was not present in 20 control alleles. Restriction enzyme analysis also detects two systematic gene mutation carriers. In patients from the other family and patients with sporadic DRD, no alterations in the translated portion of the GCH1 gene were observed. Direct sequencing also showed that there existed gene polymorphisms in intron 1 and intron 3 which neared the exon2 and exon3 respectively in Chinese.Conclusions We describe a new missense mutation (Tyr75Cys) in the GCH1 gene. Mutation in the coding region of the gene might be accounted for a part of patients with DRD.

Zhou Jianren's thinking on sexual morality at the late "May 4th" is profound and prospective.It is of great theoretical significance and practical value to dredge up the spirit of Zhou's thinking on sexual morality to establish a scientific concept of sexual morality and to train students of good character of sexual morality in contemporary university.

Objective To investigate the influence of laparoscopic resection of colorectal cancer on (postoperative) micrometastasis of tumor cells.Methods Using cytokeratin,CK-20 mRNA as target gene,the RT-PCR method was used to examine the pre-and post-operative changes in the number of tumor cells in the peripheral blood of 48 cases of colorectal cancer.Results After operation,the number of tumor cells in(peripheral) blood was significantly higher in the laparoscopic surgery group as compared to that of traditional(laparotomy) operation group(P0.05),but was significantly related to positive rate of proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA)(P

Objective To evaluate the diffuse characteristics of two types of botulinum toxin type A (BOTOX and CBTX A) in the forehead and the effect of intradermal (ID) and subcutanous (SC) infections on their diffusion.Methods Healthy volunteers (n =20) were recruited to receive a 0.05 ml (2 U) injection of botulinum toxin type A at four forehead sites [both sides of medial forehead (SC) and temporal forehead (ID)],one side for BOTOX and another for CBTX-A.On day 14,the Minors' iodine starch test was performed and photographs were taken for calculating the area and dimensions of anhydrotic area.Results The areas of anhidrosis ID were significantly greater with CBTX-A (180±15) mm2 than that of BOTOX (144±14) mm2.The same conditions occurred in vertical dimensions (14.4±1.1) mm vs.(15.8±1.0) mm and horizontal dimensions (10.8±0.6) mm vs.(12.5±0.7) mm.There was significant variation between the both for diffuseness in the two anhidrotic halos observed after ID injection (P＜0.05).The areas of anhidrosis by SC were significantly greater with CBTX-A (207±17) mm2 than that in BOTOX (183±18) mm2.The mean horizontal dimension was greater with CBTX-A by SC (13.2±0.6) mm than that of BOTOX by SC (12.2±0.7) mm,but not statistically significant (P =0.06).The mean horizontal dimension in BOTOX was significantly greater with SC than that with ID (P＜0.05).There was no statistically significant difference between SC and ID administration of CBTX-A.Conclusions BOTOX diffuses less than CBTX-A.ID injection technique may result in less diffusion than SC.

Smoking and exposure to second hand smoke are the deadly killer of human health. Tobacco kills more than one million people each year in China. According to 2015 Chinese adult tobacco survey, the number of smokers in China increased by 15 million during five years, from 301 million in 2010 to 316 million in 2015. Smoking addiction is a chronic recurrent disease, and its pathogenesis is associated with the mesolimbic dopamine system. In recent years, domestic and overseas scholars studied the brain function of smoking addicts through resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), and found that the brain functional activity of smoking addicts has changed. fMRI can help us understand the mechanism of tobacco dependence, and provide the evidence of diagnosis, treatment and health management of tobacco dependence. In this paper, the present study situation and the application in the field of the treatment and management of smoking cessation of fMRI in smoking addicts are reviewed.

Objective To investigate the levels of complement and activated complement factors in peripheral blood and skin in patients with psoriasis and their significance in the development of psoriatic lesion.Methods Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and immuno turbidi metric analysis were used to determine the levels of C3d, sC5b-9, C3 and C4 in sera from 57 patients with psoriasis vulgaris.Immunohistochemistry was employed to assess in situ expression of SC5b-9 in lesional and non lesional skin of 37 patients.Results There was a significant decrease of C3 and C4, and increase of C3d and sC5b-9 in patients with psoriasis in comparison with those of normal controls (t=10.88～ 24.80, P<0.01).The levels of C3 and C4 were significantly lower, while the levels of C3d and sC5b-9 were significantly higher in progressive stage than those in static stage (t=4.55～ 6.77,P< 0.01).In situ expression of sC5b-9 was significantly higher in stratum corneum and dermo epidermal junction of lesional skin than that in non lesional skin and normal controls (χ2=62.90,45.45;P< 0.01).There was no significant difference of C5b-9 expression in stratum corneum and dermoepidermal junction of lesional skin between progressive and static stage.Conclusions There is significant correlation between the development of psoriatic lesion and local deposit of activated complement factors.
