Objective:To understand the progress in AIDS/HIV research over the last 10 years through a bibliometric approach.Methods:The literatures were searched in Web of Science citation database(1996-2005)using the following terms:"HIV*"or"AIDS"or"human immunodeficiency virus*"or"acquired immune deficiency syndrome".The searching results were analyzed by the Derwent Analytics software concerning the article numbers and the total citations by countries,institutes and authors,and AIDS/HIV magazine distribution,in an effort to discover AIDS/HIV research progress in and outside China in recent years.Results:The annual numbers(about 12000)of AIDS/HIV articles published in Web of Science had little change from 1996 to 2005.The U.S.played a leading role the AIDS/HIV research in the world;China has made a great progress in AIDS/HIV research in the recent years,but still lagging far behind western countries like the U.S.,England, France,Italy,German,etc.The etiology,pathogenesis of AIDS,the HIV coreceptors(CXCR4 and CCRS),and HIV drugs and vaccines were the focuses of AIDS/HIV research in the world in the recent years;meanwhile,the isolation,purification and function of antiviral and antifungal proteins from plants,HIV coreceptors(CXCR4 and CCR5),and APOBEC3G protein were the focuses in China.Conclusion:Due to the worldwide epidemic of AIDS/HIV and the increasing attention from scientists,the prevention and treatment of AIDS/HIV had been a research focus in recent years.The research of AIDS/HIV in China has been progressing rapidly,but still lagging behind its international peers.The research contents and focuses of China are different from the international ones.

Objective To systematic review the methodological quality of guidelines for Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) in children, to provide a reference for clinical evidence-based medicine. Methods Guidelines concerning GBS were electronically retrieved from PubMed, EMbase, CBM, Wanfang data, CNKI and Vip. The guide databases includes major medical institutions and industry sites such as NGC, GIN, TRIP , CDC, IDSA, AAP, WHO, Chinese Health and Family Planning Committee website, library of clinical guidelines China and Chinese clinical guidelines for collaboration. All the data were searched from inception of the database or network to Oct. 2013. Two reviews independently screened literature according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and assessed the quality of guideline using the AGREEⅡ. Intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was used to examine the conformance of the raters' evaluation scores. Results A total of 5 guidelines concerning GBS were included, with a time range from 2003 to 2012, and origins from USA, EU and Canada. The final recommendation levels of the 5 articles were level B. According to the AGREEⅡ, domain 3 and 4 showed the higher scores, and scores were generally low in domain 5. Plasma exchange (PE) and intravenous immuneglobulin (IVIG) showed positive effects on the treatment of GBS. But it was not recommended that combined PE and IVIG. Corticosteroids are also not recommended for GBS treatment. Conclusions The recommendations of medicines for GBS are basically consistent. However, the classification criteria of the levels of evidence and recommendation are still unconsistent and suboptimal. The guidelines on GBS should be improved in“Applicability”in future.

Objective To explore the MSCT characteristics of gastric schwannoma (GS).Methods 1 6 patients with pathologically verified GS were included in our study.The MSCT images were analysed retrospectively.Results 1 6 participants were determined with solitary nodule,which located in gastric antrum,body and fundus,respectively with 5 cases,10 cases and 1 case.13 of them showed morphologically as round or ovoid shape,while 3 of them grew irregularly lobulated lesion.For their growth pattern,1 3 tumors presented as bilateral growth,1 lesion appeared intra-cavitary growth,1 grew outside the cavity fields.However,1 case was hard to confirm the growth pattern due to the gastroduodenal intussusception.14 tumors appeared uniform density,1 showed a little necrosis and 1 had dotted calcification,all the lesions were emerged as progressive enhancement with inhomogeneous feature.Conclusion GS mostly located in gastric body or antrum,with round or ovoid appearence,well-defined border,and bilateral growth pattern,necro-sis and calcification are rare,enhanced progressively with homogeneous feature,with no surrounding invasion and metastasis.

Objective To explore modification of islet cell function in type 2 diabetes by the treatment of insulin detemir and insulin aspart.Methods A total of 68 patients with diagnosed type 2 diabetes were randomized into two grouops,the control group (insulin glargine combined with insulin aspart)and observation group (insulin detemir combined with insulin aspart),each group had 34 cases.Before and after treatment,fasting insulin and 2 h postprandial insulin,glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c),C peptide and fructosamine (FMN)levels were compared in two groups,and the treatment safety was observed.Results After treatment,fasting insulin and C -peptide levels in the two groups were significantly increased than before treatment(P <0.05 ).In observation group,2 h postprandial insulin level (29.97 ±9.18)mIU /L was significantly higher than before treatment (20.79 ±7.49)mIU /L(t =4.52,P =0.00), which was better than the control group (24.67 ±7.69)mIU /L,the difference was significant (t =2.58,P =0.01). After treatment,postprandial 2h C peptide levels in the two groups had no significant differences compared with before treatment (P >0.05).In the observation group,except for 2h postprandial insulin levels,other indicators had no significant differences compared with the control group (P >0.05 ).After treatment,FMN and HbA1c in the two groups decreased significantly compared with before treatment(P <0.05 ),but there was no significant difference between the two groups (P >0.05).During treatment,both two groups observed hypoglycemia,but there were no severe adverse reactions.Conclusion The clinical application of insulin detemir combined with insulin aspart in the treatment of type 2 diabetes can significantly improve the insulin -producing cells and accelerate functional recovery, and the clinical effect is better than the united aspart insulin glargine,with no significant adverse reactions,it can be recommended as a clinical type 2 diabetes treatment drug of choice.

Objective To investigate the effects of homocysteinemia (HHcy) and hypertension on left ventricular re?modeling. Methods A total of 275 patients with coronary heart disease were divided into four groups including H-type hy? pertension group (n=96), non-H-type hypertension group (n=44), HHcy+non-hypertension group (n=53) and control group (n=65) based on their blood pression levels and plasma HHcy levels. The serum levels of glucose (Glu), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low density lipoprotein (LDL) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) were compared between groups. The left ventricular end systolic diameter (LVESD), left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVEDD), left ventricular posterior wall thickness (LVPWT), ventricular septal thickness (IVST) and left ventricular mass index (LVMI) were observed in four groups. The proportion of patients with left ventricular remodeling was also compared between four groups. The influence fac?tors of left ventricular remodeling were analysed. Results There were no significant differences in biochemical parameters except Hcy level between frour groups. The values of LVMI, left ventricular wall thickness and the proportion of patients with left ventricular remodeling were significantly higher in H-type hypertension group than those of other three groups ( P<0.05). The Hcy level was positively correlated with LVMI and left ventricular wall thickness. Logistic regression analysis showed that HHcy and hypertension were the risk factors of left ventricular remodeling (OR=7.443, 7.754 and 9.948,P<0.05). The risk factors of left ventricular remodeling were higher in patients with both HHcy and hypertension than those in patients with HHcy or hypertension. Conclusion Homocysteine and higher systolic pressure are independent risk factors for left ventricular remodeling and they have a synergistic effect on leading to left ventricular remodeling.
