Objective To evaluate the value of haptoglobin (HPT),α1-acid glycoprotein (AAG)and C-reactive protein (CRP) in the differential diagnosis of bacterial and viral infection in children. Methods Serum CRP, AAG and HPT levels were measured in 64 children with bacterial infection and 64 children with viral infection during acute stage. These indicators were also measured in 31 normal control children. The sensitivity ,specificity ,positive and negative predictive values, Youden's index for HPT,AAG and CRP were calculated. These values were compared among three groups. Their early diagnostic value on bacterial infection and virus infection was evaluated. Results (1) These markers were considered positive if HP≥2 g/L,AAG≥2 g/L,CRP≥10 mg/L. (2) The serum CRP [(2.70 ±0.99) g/L vs (1.42 ±0.75) g/L] ,AAG [(0.91 +0.38) g/L vs (0.30+0.08) g/L] and HPT [(6.40 ±0.89) mg/L vs (1.38 +0.80) mg/L]levels were significantly higher in children with bacterial infection compared with those with viral infection during the acute stage (P ＜ 0. 05,P ＜ 0. 01). The serum CRP, AAG and HPT levels were significantly higher in children with bacterial infection compared with normal control children during the acute stage (P ＜ 0. 05);while the levels of these indicators showed no differences between viral infection children and normal control children (P ＞ 0. 05). Conclusion The measurement of serum CRP, AAG and HPT levels has clinical value in the differential diagnosis of bacterial and viral infection in children. Among these indicators, CRP has the highest specificity,positive predictive,negative predictive values and Youden's index.

Objective To evaluate the predictive value of morphology of superficial depression in estimation of histology and invasive depth in colorectal neoplasia by using magnifying chromo-endoscopy.Methods Flat or depressed and sessile eolorectal lesions which were indicated for endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) were consecutively collected. Depressed lesions were classified into type 1 (star-like) and type 2 (round) according to the morphology of depressive areas in the colorectal neoplasia with magnifying ehromoendoscopy. The relationship between morphologic classification with histology and invasive depth was studied with reference to pathological diagnosis after EMR. Results Ninety lesions including 25 sessile and 65 flat were resected with EMR. Lesions with central depression (54. 4%,49/90) were more likely to have high-grade dysplasia (HGD) or cancer than those without ( 51.0% vs. 17. 1%,P＜0. 001 ). Depressive lesions of type 2 were more susceptible to have HGD or cancer than those of type 1 (89. 5% vs. 26. 7%,P＜0. 001 ). The overall accuracy of depression morphology for distinction between lesions of superficial submueosal (m-sm1) and deep submucosal (sm2-sm3) invasion was 83. 7% (41/49). Conclusion The morphology of superficial depression on colorectal neoplasia is highly correlated with the histology and invasive depth,which facilitates the EMR treatment.

Objective To study the effects of tyrosine kinase receptor B-brain-derived neurotrophic factor (TrkB-BDNF) signal pathway on the secretion of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and matrix metalloproteinases-9(MMP-9) of neuroblastoma.Methods We used all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) to induce the high expression of TrkB in the SH-SY5Y cell line,and then added the ectogenid BDNF to activate the TrkB-BDNF and its three downstream signal pathways.TrkB-BDNF signal pathway was inhibited by specific tyrosine kinase inhibitor K252a.The three downstream signal pathway was respectively inhibited by LY294002 (the phosphatidylinositol 3-hydroxy kinase (PI3 K) pathway inhibitor)、U73122 (the phospholipase C pathway inhibitor) 、U0126(the mitogen activated protein kinase pathway inhibitor).Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect the concentration of VEGF and MMP-9 protein in the SY5Y cell culture supernatants.Results VEGF [(485.89 ± 109.99) pg/ml] and MMP-9 [(15.73 ± 1.72) pg/ml] protein levels in neuroblastoma cells cultured in serum-free media in the group of ATRA + BDNF were significantly higher than that of the control group and ATRA alone group(P ＜0.05).VEGF [(272.42 ±86.33) pg/ml]and MMP-9 [(5.25 ± 1.44) pg/ml] protein levels in the group of ATRA + BDNF + K252a were significantly lower than those of the ATRA + BDNF group(P ＜ 0.05) and had no significant difference compared with the control group and the ATRA alone group(P ＞0.05).VEGF [(314.12 ±24.68) pg/ml] and MMP-9 [(4.91 ± 1.08) pg/ml] protein levels in the group of ATRA + BDNF + LY294002 were significantly lower than those of the ATRA + BDNF group(P ＜ 0.05) and had no significant difference compared with the control group and the ATRA alone group(P ＞0.05).VEGF [(444.08 ±64.49) pg/ml] and MMP-9 [(13.28 ±3.38) pg/ml] protein levels in neuroblastoma cells cultured in serum-free media in the group of ATRA +BDNF + U73122 had no significant difference compared with the ATRA + BDNF group(P ＞ 0.05).VEGF [(429.97 ± 19.95) pg/ml] and MMP-9 [(13.96 ± 4.45) pg/ml] protein levels in neuroblastoma cells cultured in serum-free media in the group of ATRA + BDNF + U0126 had no significant difference compared with the ATRA + BDNF group(P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Activation of TrkB-BDNF signal pathway can increase the synthesis and secretion of VEGF and MMP-9 in human neuroblastoma cells.TrkB-BDNF signal pathway may be through activating its downstream PI3K pathway to increase the synthesis and secretion of VEGF and MMP-9 in human neuroblastoma cells.The synthesis and secretion of VEGF and MMP-9 can be inhibited by blocking the TrkB-BDNF signal pathway with K252a or blocking its downstream signal pathway PI3 K with LY294002.

Objective To evaluate the guiding role of capsule endoscopy (CE) in choosing the access route of double-balloon enteroscopy (DBE) for small bowel diseases. Methods Patients with complete CE and with small bowel diseases confirmed by DBE were enrolled. The lesion location found on CE was represented by the time index, which was the ratio of access time from pylorus to lesion over access time from pylorus to ileocecal valve. Based on our previous retrospective evaluation, oral approach was selected when the index was ≤0. 6, otherwise the anal access would be chosen. Accuracy of time index predicting DBE access rout was evaluated. Results Data of 60 patients undergoing both CE and DBE were evaluated. All lesions detected by CE were confirmed by DBE, with 41 via oral route and 19 via anus. Based on the time index with threshold of 0.6, the accuracy of selecting the insertion route of DBE was 100%. Conclusion DBE is an effective approach to confirm CE results. In patients with complete small bowel investigation by CE, the insertion route for DBE can be reliably indicated with time index based on the CE results.

Results (1) The percentage of silent response in BFD group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of Butylphthalide and sodium chloride injection on neurological function and prognosis of elderly patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage(HICH)after trepanation and drainage surgery. METH-ODS:During Jan. 2015 to Jun. 2016,80 elderly HICH patients were selected from our hospital and then divided into control group and observation group according to random number table,with 40 cases in each group. Both group received trepanation and drain-age surgery. Control group was given routine treatment. Observation group was given Butylphthalide and sodium chloride injection 100 mL,ivgtt,bid,on the fifth day after surgery,on the basis of control group. Both groups received treatment for 14 d. Clinical efficacies of 2 groups were observed. CSS scores were compared between 2 groups before surgery and 28 d after operation;volume of encephaledema,serum levels of homocysteine(HCY)and substance P(SP)were compared between 2 groups before surgery and 14 d after operation. RESULTS:The total response rate of observation group was 87.5％,which was significantly higher than 67.5％ of control group, with statistical significance (P<0.05). Before surgery, there was no statistical significance in CSS scores,volume of encephaledema or serum levels of HCY and SP between 2 groups(P>0.05). CSS scores 28 d after operation, SP levels 14 d after operation were significanthy increased,volume of encephaledema and serum levels of HCY in 2 groups were significantly decreased,and the observation group was significantly better than the control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Butylphthalide and sodium chloride injection can significantly improve clinical efficacy and hepatic func-tion damage,relieve postoperative encephaledema,reduce serum levels of HCY and increase SP levels in elderly HICH patients af-ter trepanation and drainage surgery.

To investigate the relationship between Snail and renal tubular epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) or tubulointerstitial fibrosis (TIF) at tissue and cellular levels and to observe the changes of miRNA profile after transfecting Snail gene into human renal tubular epithelial cells (HK-2),to further elucidate the importance of miRNA in the pathogenesis of renal fibrosis.Methods The expression of Snail and EMT-related proteins vimentin,SMA,E-cadherin was detected by immunohistochemistry in renal tissues of 40 patients with IgA nephropathy.The expression of Snail,E-cadherin and SMA in normal control group,empty transfection group and Snail gene transfection group was detected by Western blot and RT-PCR.Furthermore,differentially expressed miRNAs were screened by gene chip.Results By immunohistochemistry,Snail expression was positively correlated with vimentin and SMA,negatively correlated with E-cadherin in IgA nephropathy.The higher degree of the TIF,the stronger the expression of Snail.Compared with the control group,the expression of Snail,vimentin and SMA in the snail transfected group increased.However,E-cadherin decreased at gene and protein level by the RT-PCR and Western blot (P ＜ 0.05).The difference was statistically significant.Five distinctly different miRNAs were screened by gene chip after Snail gene was transfected into HK-2 cells,and then 5 026 potential target genes were predicted.Conclusion Snail expression is closely related with renal tubular epithelial mesenchymal transition and tubulointerstitial fibrosis,and it may be used as a new target in EMT prevention.Differentially expressed miRNAs may be involved in the development of EMT and TIF.
