Nrf2/Keap1/ARE is an important signaling pathway in maintaining the balance between peroxide and antioxidants. Once oxidative stress happened, Nrf2/Keap1/ARE would be ac-tivated to regulate the expression of downstream antioxidant pro-teins that could reduce the injury from oxidative stress and the level of oxidative stress. Recent researches show that Nrf2/Keap1/ARE signaling pathway is closely related to refractory re-spiratory diseases such as pulmonary fibrosis (PF), lung canc-er, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), suggesting that Nrf2/Keap1/ARE signaling pathway may be a potential ther-apeutic target. This review focuses on the role of Nrf2/Keap1/ARE signaling pathway in refractory respiratory diseases in order to further understand the related mechanism and provide evidence for the diagnosis and treatment of refractory respiratory diseases.

Objective To explore the clinical application of mirabilite abdominal hot compression bag designed by ourselves for the moderately severe acute pancreatitis ( MSAP ) or severe acute pancreatitis ( SAP) .Methods Seventy MSAP and SAP patients were randomly divided into the observed and control groups according to the admission date.Each group included 35 patients.All the patients received the routine treatment.The patients in observed group received the treatment of compression action on abdomen by mirabilite abdominal continual hot compression bag designed by ourselves, while the traditional mirabilite hot compression action was used in the control group.The APACHEⅡscore and the levels of plasma CRP, IL-1, IL-6 and TNF-αof all patients on the 1st, 3rd, 6th, and 9th day after being admitted, the rate of complications including the intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH), pancreatic pseudocysts (PPC) and pulmonary infection, the recovery time of intestinal function and mean hospitalization time were all recorded and the therapeutic efficacy was compared between the two groups.Furthermore, the therapeutic effects of MSAP and SAP were compared between two groups.Results The APACHEⅡscore and the levels of plasma CRP, IL-1, IL-6 and TNF-αwere not statistically different between the two groups on the 1st day after hospitalization.The APACHEⅡscore and the levels of plasma CRP, IL-1 and TNF-αon the 3rd day in the observed group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0.05 or <0.01).The APACHEⅡ score and the levels of plasma CRP, IL-1 , IL-6 and TNF-αon the 6th day in the observed group were significantly lower, comparing to those in the control group.The levels of serum IL-1 and TNF-αin the observed groups were significantly lower than those in control group on the 9th day.All the differences above were statistically significant ( P<0.05 or <0.01).In the observed group, 4 cases (11.4%) had IAH and 7 cases (20.0%) developed other complications.The time of intestinal recovery and mean hospitalization was (4.9 ±0.8)d and (13.1 ±2.1)d, respectively, in the observed group.In the control group, 11 cases (31.4%) had IAH and 10 cases (28.6%) had other complications, and the time of intestinal recovery and mean hospitalization was (5.5 ±0.8) d and (15.4 ±3.9)d,respectively,.The rate of IAH, intestinal function recovery time and hospitalization time in the observed group were significantly less than those in control group (P<0.05 or <0.01).There was no statistical difference on other complications between the two groups.The intestinal function recovery time and hospitalization time of MSAPs in the observed group were significantly less than those in control group [(5.0 ± 0.8)d vs (5.5 ±0.8)d, P=0.03; (12.7 ±1.7)d vs (15.2 ±3.6)d, P=0.02].The APACHEⅡ score and the levels of plasma CRP, IL-1, IL-6 and TNF-αof SAPs were not statistically different between the two groups.Conclusions The application of the mirabilite abdominal continual hot compression bag could alleviate inflammatory response of MSAP and SAP, decrease the rate of IAH, improve the intestinal function recovery time,and shorten the hospitalization time.

Objective To investigate the etiology of the nosocomial infection and immune function changes anus and anal after operation.Methods 130 patients who needed anus and anal canal surgery were recruited in the study.The clinical data were recor-ded and postoperative nosocomial infection data were observed,including infection type,distribution,pathogenic analysis and im-mune function.Results A total of 67 cases of nosocomial infection occured,the infection rate was 51.5% (67/130),the main types of infection were perineal wound infection,abdominal infections and pelvic infections,urinary tract and vaginal infections were rare. 93 isolates were collected,of which gram-negative bacilli accounted for 67.7% (63/93 ),including bacteroides fragilis (21.5%), Escherichia coli (18.3%),Pseudomonas aeruginosa (10.8%);Gram-positive bacteria accounted for 23.7% (30/93 ),including Staphylococcus aureus(17.2%),Staphylococcus epidermidis(6.5%);5 fungi were isolated accounting for 5.4%,other strains ac-counted for 3.2%.All the immune parameters detected in patients with postoperative nosocomial infection were statistically differ-ent from those before infection(P <0.05)except for IgM(P >0.05).Conclusion The incidence of nosocomial infection was rela-tively high in patients who had anus and anal canal surgery,which could serious affect the patients'outcomes,preventive and control measures should be taken in clinical practice.

BACKGROUND:No ideal drugs can be used in the prevention and treatment of aseptic loosening of artificial joints. Some researchs showed that erythromycin has strong inhibitory effects on periprosthetic osteolysis. Its antibacterial activity, however, limits its application in artificial joint loosening prevention. LY267108 is a new type of erythromycin derivatives, eliminates the antibacterial activities, and retains the anti-inflammatory activity.
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate inhibitory effect of LY267108 on nuclear factor kappa B during osteoclast activation.
METHODS:RANKL and macrophage colony-stimulating factor were added to RAW264.7 cellline of a mouse model induced by osteoclasts. Simultaneously, different concentrations of alendronate sodium, erythromycin and LY267108 were cocultured for 48 hours. The activity of nuclear factor kappa B and content of intracytoplasmic inhibitory subunit of nuclear factor kappa B alpha were measured by electrophoretic mobility shift assay and western blot assay.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:LY267108 has a strong inhibitory effect on nuclear factor kappa B. 10 mg/L LY267108, 25 mg/L erythromycin and 10 mg/L alendronate sodium had similar inhibitory effects on nuclear factor kappa B, which was obviously stronger than 10 mg/L erythromycin. However, 25 mg/L LY267108 had strongest inhibitory effects. No significant difference in intracytoplasmic inhibitory subunit of nuclear factor kappa B alpha levels was detected among 10 mg/L LY267108, 25 mg/L erythromycin and 10 mg/L alendronate sodium groups, but was stil apparently higher than 10 mg/L erythromycin group. Levels of intracytoplasmic inhibitory subunit of nuclear factor kappa B alpha were highest in the 25 mg/L LY267108 group. Results indicated that LY267108 in the process of osteoclast activation had stronger inhibitory effects on nuclear factor kappa B compared with erythromycin, and its safety was higher than alendronate sodium. Simultaneously, LY267108 did not have antimicrobial activity, and became a potential ideal drug for prevention and treatment of aseptic loosening of artificial joints. However, the inhibitory effects of LY267108 on the degradation of inhibitory subunit of nuclear factor kappa B alpha would be a mechanism of inhibiting the activation of nuclear factor kappa B.

Functional near-infrared spectroscopy is a non-invasive optical brain function detection technology,which can do multi-point measurement of changes on cerebral cortical area corresponding to the oxygenation of the blood hemoglobin and deoxygenated hemoglobin concentration,and then reflect the state of brain cortex function.Its greatest advantage is to allow the subjects head moving in a certain range,especially suitable for children.At present this technology could be applied to clinical pediatric,such as epilepsy,autism,attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder,neonatal disease,neurosurgery and cardiovascular surgery,etc.Functional near-infrared spectroscopy technology will have more applications in the field of research on brain function.
