OBJECTIVE:To explore clinical efficacy and compliance of different doses of calf pulmonary surfactant combined with nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) in the treatment of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (NRDS). METHODS:90 children diagnosed as NRDS were collected from neonatal department of our hospital,and were divided into high-dose group,middle-dose group and low-dose group by random number table method,with 30 cases in each group. 3 groups received NIPPV combined with calf pulmonary surfactant;the dose of calf pulmonary surfactant in high-dose group,middle-dose group and low-dose group were 100,70,40 mg/kg,respectively. Blood gas indexes,treatment,hospitalization duration,treatment cost,the incidence of compliance were compared among 3 groups. RESULTS:Before treatment,there was no statistical signifi-cance in pH,PaCO2,PaO2,SaO2 among 3 groups(P>0.05);after treatment,above indexes of 3 groups were all improved signifi-cantly,and the high-dose group was significantly better than middle-dose group and low-dose group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in duration of ventilation,oxygen therapy duration,cure rate and treatment cost among 3 groups(P>0.05). Medication times and hospitalization time of high-dose groups were significantly lower or shorter than those of middle-dose group and low-dose group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). The rate of complication in high-dose group,middle-dose group and low-dose group were 20.0%,23.3% and 16.7%,respectively,there was no statistical significance (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Calf pulmonary surfactant combined with NIPPV could effectively improve the blood gas status of newborn with NRDS. High dose of calf pulmonary surfactant can reduce hospitalization time and doesn’t increase treatment cost and the rate of compliance.

OBJECTIVE:
To analyze the relationship between olfactory bulb (OB) volume, depth of olfactory sulcus (OS) and olfactory function in patients with Alzheimer' disease (AD).
METHOD:
Fifty patients with AD patients and 50 healthy subjects were examined by olfactory function T&T testing, OB volume and depth of OS assessed with Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
RESULT:
T&T olfactory testing revealed that AD patients had higher scores than control group (1.50 ± 0.17, 2.80 ± 0.31, P < 0.05). Bilateral and average OB volumes were smaller in AD group [(29.78 ± 5.17) mm3, (30.14 ± 4.87)mm3, (30.05 ± 5.08) mm3] than in control group [(36.65 ± 4.08)mm3, (36.56 ± 4.12)mm3, (36.46 ± 4.11)mm3] (P < 0.01). OS depth study revealed no statistical difference between AD patients and control groups (P > 0.05). Olfactory discriminate threshold was negatively correlated with average olfactory bulb volumes (r = -0. 711, P < 0.05), and was not correlated with depth of OS (r = -0.127, P > 0.05) in AD patients.
CONCLUSION
The OB volume were lower in AD patients as compare to controls, the depth of OS has no significant changes in AD patients; The OB volume is correlated with olfactory function, the depth of OS is no correlated with olfactory function. Cognitive impairment degree in AD patients is accordance with the lower degree olfactory function. The olfactory loss may be the earlier period and objective diagnosis indicator for AD patients.

Objective:To explore the expression of miR-139-5p in small cell lung cancer (SCLC)tissue and its clinical significance, and to clarify the role of miR-139-5p in the occurrence and development of SCLC. Methods:The biological function of miR-139-5p was examined by cell growth,apoptosis and cell cycle analysis. The expressions of miR-139-5p in 50 cases of cancer tissue and paracarcinoma normal tissue were examined by QRT-PCR.Combined with the clinical data,the role of miR-139-5p in clinic was anzlyzed.Results:The expression level of miR-139-5p in SCLC tumor tissue was lower than that in normal lung tissue (P <0.01).The expression level of miR-139-5p in the cells was un-regulated significantly after transferred miR-139-5p mimics (P <0.01).Compared with control group,the proliferation abilitiy of cells was reduced after up-regulating the expression of miR-139-5p (P < 0.01),the number of cells at G1 phase was increased (P < 0.05),and the cells were arrested at G0/G1 phase.The miR-139-5p expression was not associated with gender and age (P > 0.05).The expression level of miR-139-5p in the patient at LD stage was lower than that of the patients at ED stage (P <0.01).The expression level of miR-139-5p in the resistant patients was higher than that of the patients sensitive to chemotherappy (P <0.01).The expression level of miR-139-5p in the survival patients was lower than that in the death patients (P <0.01).Cox regression analysis indicated that miR-139-5p expression and disease stage were the independent prognostic factors for SCLC.Conclusion:miR-139-5p in participates in the occurrence and development of SCLC by inhibiting the cell proliferation,promoting apoptosis and inducing the cell cycle arrest;it may be used as a target gene to evaluate the prognosis of SCLC patients.

Objective:To investigate the role of transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) in multi-drug resistance in small cell lung cancer and its clinical significance.Methods:The mRNA and protein expressions of TGF-β 1 in H69 and H69AR cells were detected by real-time PCR and Western blot,respectively.After silence of TGF-[β1,the sensitivity of H69AR to drugs was detected by CCK8 assay.The expressions of TGF-β1 in lung cancer and paracarcinoma tissues were examined by QRT-PCR and immunohistochemistry.The relationship of TGF-β 1 expression with clinical pathological features and prognosis of patients was studied.Results:Compared to H69,the mRNA and protein expressions of TGF-β1 in H69AR cells were significantly increased by (5.93±0.47) and (8.49±1.92) folds,respectively (P<0.01).Transfection ofTGF-β1 siRNA resulted in a decrease of TGF-β1 expression by 70.432% in H69AR ceils (F=21.20,P<0.01) and an increase insensitivity to chemotherapeutic agents of H69AR cells (t=4.576,P<0.05).Compare with the paracarcinoma tissues,the expression of TGF-β1 was significantly increased in small cell lung cancer tissues (t=13.925,P<0.01),which was closely related with clinical stage,chemosensitivity and overall survival (all P<0.05),but not related with gender,age (both P>0.05).Conclusion:TGF-β1 is involved in the regulation of small cell lung cancer multidrug resistance,which may be a potential marker to evaluate the chemosensitivity and dinical prognostic for small cell lung cancer.

Objective: To explore the association of the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in N-formylpeptide receptor (FPR) gene with the susceptibility of aggressive periodontitis (AgP). Methods: A total of 94 AgP patients and 73 healthy controls were entered into the study. Peripheral blood sample was obtained from each subject by venepuncture. Genomic DNA was isolated from each sample.The target fragment of FPR gene was amplified by PCR. The SNPs in FPR gene were detected by denature high performance liquid chromatography ( DHPLC) combined with DNA sequencing. Results: There were two non-synonymous SNPs in the 370 bp FPR gene fragment;289C/A and 301G/C. The 289C/Awas a novel SNP. No variation in nucleotides 329 and 378 was detected. There were no statistically significant differences in distributions of the genotypes and alleles for FPR289 and FPR301 between AgP patients and healthy controls. Using multivariate logistic regression (adjusted for age and gender) , it was showed that the adjusted Ors of AgP for the C~+ genotype and allele C of FPR301 combined with smoking were 5.74 and 5.20 respectively. Conclusion: The presence of the C~+ genotype/allele C of FPR301 together with smoking conferred a higher risk for AgP. The result suggests that the SNPs in FPR gene may not be associated with the susceptibility of AgP in Chinese.
