IgG4 related disease (IgG4-RD) is a systemic disease which was named and accepted in recent years.IgG4-RD is a multiorgan-involved disease, mainly including pancrease, parotid gland, bile duct, liver, etc.The study on the relationship between IgG4 and orbital disease is relatively few.In recent years, our study group aimed directly to the relationship between IgG4 and common orbital disease, including benign lymphoepithelial lesion of lacrimal gland,idiopathic orbital inflammatory pseudotumor, orbital lymphoma, etc.We found that IgG4 was associated with the pathogenesis and progression of these diseases.This article addressed systematically the pathogenesis of IgG4 related orbital disease and evaluated the values of IgG4 in diagnosis,differential diagnosis,treatment and montoring of these orbital diseases based on related literature and reseaching results from our study group,in order to deepen the recognition of IgG4 related orbital diseases in ophthalmologists.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of Pijiling Liniment for seborrheic dermatosis on 327 cases. Methods:327 patients with seborrheic dermatosis were treated with Pijiling Liniment. The clinical effects were compared with that of the control group(Co.Resorcinol Ointment, 76 cases). Results:The total effective rate and curative rate of the treatment group for seborrheic dermatitis were 93.5% and 33.3%, respectively. The effective rate for acne was 80.6% and for dermatomycosis microsporina was 7.5%. The total effective rate and curative rate of the control group were 92.1% and 2.6 %, respectively. Conclusions:There is a significant difference in the curative rate between two groups( P 0.05) through x 2 test.

OBJECTIVE:To study the effects of Thymalfasin for injection on the apoptosis of human lung cancer A549 cells. METHODS:After treated with 0(blank control),25,50,100,200 and 400 mg/L Thymalfasin for injection for 24,48 and 72 h, the cell proliferation inhibitory rate was analyzed with MTT and calculated. After treated with 0(blank control),50 and 100 mg/L Thymalfasin for injection for 48 h,cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry,and the expression of Caspase-3,Bcl-2 and Bax and the phosphorylation level of Akt were deteced by Western blot. RESULTS:Compared with blank control group,proliferation in-hibitory rate of A549 cells increased after treated with Thymalfasin for injection,in concentration and time-dependent manner(P<0.05). The apoptotic rate of A549 cells increased after treated with Thymalfasin for injection 50,100 mg/L for 48 h (P<0.05). The expression of Caspase-3 increased while the Bcl-2/Bax and phosphorylation level of Akt decreased in A549 cells after treated with Thymalfasin for injection 100 mg/L (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Thymalfasin for injection can inhibit the proliferation of A549 cells by activating Caspase-3,decreasing Bcl-2/Bax ratio,inhibiting Akt signal pathway and induce the apoptosis of A549 cells.

Objective and Methods: Thirty-three patients with peri-menopausal syndrome were treated by electroacupuncture of points Guanyuan (CV 4) and Sanyinjiao (SP 6) according to the principle of regulating and tonifying the Thoroughfare and Conception vessels, and the curative effects were analyzed.Results and Conclusion: The results showed that there was a significant difference in the clinical symptoms of the patients with peri-menopausal syndrome between pre- and post-electroacupuncture of points Guanyuan (CV 4) and Sanyinjiao (CV 6) and the clinical effective rate reached 93.9%. The measurement of sexual hormones showed E2, FSH and LH levels were better after treatment than before treatment in the patients with peri-menopausal syndrome. The analyses indicated that electroacupuncture of points Guanyuan (CV 4) and Sanyinjiao (CV 6) could relieve the clinical symptoms in the patients with peri-menopausal syndrome and improve the patient's life quality.

Objective To explore the thoracic and diaphragmatic complications of treating hepatic malignant tumor using thermal ablation techniques.Methods The patients received thermal ablations were involved as subjects from January 2002 to December 2013.The thoracic and diaphragmatic complications of treating hepatic malignant tumor with percutaneous thermal ablation were retrospectively analyzed.Results A total of 1 520 patients with 2 789 hepatic tumors [average largest diameter of tumor (2.30 ± 1 .03)cm] underwent 2 066 thermal ablation treatments.Five hundred and six radiofrequency ablation (RFA)and 1 560 microwave ablation procedures were performed,respectively.The complete ablation rate was 96.8%(2 701/2 789)at 1 month after treatment.The major thoracic and diaphragmatic complication rates were 0.8%(1 7/2 066 ),meanwhile the minor complication rates were 6.5% (134/2 066 ).Conclusions The thoracic and diaphragmatic complication rate of percutaneous thermal ablation is low in the treatment of hepatic malignant tumors.However,the major complications may cause serious consequences.Therefore, the patients of diaphragm-abutting liver tumors are fully assessed before thermal ablation treatments,and relevant prevention measures are completed.Open or laparoscope is used to assist thermal ablation treatment when necessary.

Objective To evaluate the effect of obstructive jaundice on recovery from sevoflurane anesthesia in pediatric patients. Methods A total of 80 pediatric patients scheduled for elective surgery were included, 42 pediatric patients with biliary atresia scheduled for Kasai operation served as obstructive jaundice group ( group OJ ) , and 38 pediatric patients scheduled for other operations served as control group ( group C) . Pediatric patients were 1-4 months old and full?term infants, and weighed 3.2-8.0 kg. Anesthesia was maintained with inhalation of 2%-4% sevoflurane during surgery, and pediatric patients inhaled 4% sevoflurane staring from peritoneum closure until the end of surgery. The duration from closing sevoflurane vaporizer to BIS value reaching 60, 70, 80 and 90 was recorded. The duration from stop of sevoflurane inhalation to BIS value returning to 60, 70, 80 and 90 was recorded. The duration from termination of sevoflurane inhalation to the time for tidal volume returning to 6 ml∕kg, to the time for muscle strength recovering to grade Ⅲ, to spontaneous eye opening and to tracheal extubation, and the corresponding BIS values were recorded. BIS value while entering the operating room, BIS value at the end of surgery, and the highest BIS value during recovery from anesthesia were recorded. The occurrence of delayed emergence from anesthesia was recorded. Results Compared with group C, the duration from termination of sevoflurane inhalation to spontaneous eye opening and to tracheal extubation were significantly prolonged, and BIS value at the end of surgery was decreased, and no significant change was found in the other parameters in group OJ. No pediatric patients developed delayed emergence from anesthesia in the two groups. Conclusion When only sevoflurane is used for inhalation anesthesia, although the time for recovery from anesthesia is prolonged, it shows no significant difference clinically in pediatric patients with obstructive jaundice.

Objective To investigate the reasons of complications after ultrasound-guided PTBD and explore measures for their management. Methods The clinical data of 753 patients with obstructive jaundice treated with ultrasound-guided PTBD in our hospital from January 2001 to June 2008were retrospectively analyzed.

Only 1 patient died of manipulation-related complications.Conclusion Ultrasound-guided PTBD is an effective method for treatment of obstructive jaundice.

Objective To investigate the effects of edaranvone on lung injury induced by myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in rats. Methods Twenty-four male Wistar rats weighing 250-300 g were randomly assigned to one of 4 groups ( n = 6 each): group Ⅰ sham operation (group S); group Ⅱ myocardial I/R and group Ⅲ and Ⅳ different doses of edaravone ( group E1, E2 ). The animals were anesthetized, intubated and mechanically ventilated. In group Ⅱ-Ⅳ myocardial I/R was induced by occlusion of left anterior descending coronary artery for 45 min followed by 3 h reperfusion. In group Ⅲ and Ⅳ edavarone 3 and 10 mg/kg was administered via right femoral vein at 1 min before reperfusion respectively. The animals were sacrificed by exsanguination at the end of 3 h reperfusion. Blood was collected for determination of serum CK-MB activity and total protein content. The left lung was lavaged and the broncho-alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was colleted for determination of protein content. Pulmonary permeability index (PPI) was calculated. The lung tissue was obtained for determination of BD-2 mRNA and protein and TNF-α expression. Results The serum CK-MB activity, PPI,BD-2 mRNA and protein and TNF-α expression were significantly higher in group I/R, E1 and E2 than in group S,but significantly lower in group E1 and E2 than in group I/R and in group E2 than in group E1. Conclusion Edaravone can reduce myocardial I/R-induced lung injury by scavenging oxygen free radicals and inhibiting inflammatory response of lung tissues in rats.

Objective To observe the ultrasonographic features of primary female genital system lymphoma and its histopathological characteristics.Methods Sonographic appearances and histopathological characteristics of 14 patients who were pathologically comfirmed as primary female genital system lymphoma were reviewed.Results Fourteen patients underwent ultrasonography and 15 lesions were found,6 cases of which were found in the ovary and cervix separately,3 cases in the uterine body.Among the lesions detected,10 of which respectively represents extremely low echo and homogeneous internal echo,all lymphomas had posterior enhancement.The margins were most frequently circumcribed (13/15),5numbers primary lymphomas of the ovary were mostly elliptical in shape,while 5 numbers of cervix tumors showed the shape of lobular,all of the tumors in the uterine body showed diffuse symmetrical enlargement without disruption of the endometria.Color Doppler imaging showed hypervascularity in most tumors(13/15).The pathological examination showed that all tumors were non-Hodgkin lymphoma diffuse B-cell type.Conclusions Primary female genital system lymphoma has some ultrasonic features,including extremely low echo,homogeneous echo and posterior enhancement.Final diagnosis depends on the histopathology.

BACKGROUND:Mechanical signal has close correlation with the growth, development, repair and reconstruction of the skeletal system and the development of disease, the effect and the mechanism on bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s is worthy to concern.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect and mechanism of hydrostatic pressures on the differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s.
METHODS:Short-term experiment:the human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s were incubated into the normal Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium, osteogenic medium or the Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium containing extracel ular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 inhibitor U0126, respectively. Homemade pressure loading system was used to impose 0, 40 and 80 kPa hydrostatic pressure for 1 and 4 hours. Long-term experiment:human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s were incubated into the normal Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium or osteogenic medium respectively, and then 40 kPa hydrostatic pressures was loaded for 4 hours per day, and lasted for 14 days. The cel s without hydrostatic pressure were regarded as the control group.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Real-time quantitative reverse transcription PCR results showed that after osteogenic induction and simulated with 40 kPa hydrostatic pressure for 4 hours, the mRNA expressions of core binding factorα1 and osteocalcin in the bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s were increased, while the mRNA expressions of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptorγ2 and adipsin were decreased, and the 80 kPa hydrostatic pressure did not cause such reactivity. The osteogenic induction effect of 40 kPa hydrostatic pressure could be partial antagonized with U0126. Histochemical staining showed that after simulated with 40 kPa hydrostatic pressure for 7 days, the expression and activity of alkaline phosphatase of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s were increased;after lasted for 14 days, the mRNA expressions of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptorγ2 and adipsin were increased. Certain intensity and duration of hydrostatic pressure stimulation can regulate the differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s, and the mechanism is only partly mediated by the extracel ular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 signaling pathway.
