Objective To detect and differentiate six major human herpesviruses DNA by PCR, RFLP, DNA clone and sequence analysis. Methods Based on the sequence of well coonserved regions of the DNA polymerse gene in human herpesvimses, we synthesized two pairs of primers, including one pair designed to amplify herpes simplex virus type 1 and 2, Epstein Barr virus and cytomegalovirus, other pair of primer to varicella zoster virus and human herpesvirus 6 by PCR. Identification of the virus species was achieved through restriction enzyme digestion with BamHI and BstUI. Results The products of six human herpesviruses after PCR amplification were from 510bp to 592bp and allowed characterization of herpesvirus type with restriction endonulease analysis. The sensitivity could reach 0.1fg DNA and had no cross reaction to human genomic DNA, bacteria, fungas and virus. 89 cerebrospinal fluids(CSF) and 75 blood specimens were tested for the presence of hepersvirus DNA by this PCR assay, in which 13(14.6%) CSF and 26(34.7%) blood specimens were positive. Comparatively, 10(13.3%) were positive by ELISA for HSVⅠ/Ⅱ,EBV,CMV IgM in blood specimens and significantly lower than that of the PCR rate (P

Objective To analyze the effect of endoscopic middle turbinate angioplasty on postoperative nasal function and olfaction in patients with chronic sinusitis and nasal polyp.Methods Clinical materials of 80 patients with chronic sinusitis and nasal polyps were analyzed retrospectively,and they were divided into control group and research group,40 cases in each group.Control group was treated with endoscopic partial middle turbinate resection,while research group was treated with endoscopic middle turbinate angioplasty.Clinical efficacy,nasal function,olfactory function,SNOT-20CV score,and Lund-Kennedy scoring and complications were compared between two groups.Results Total effective rate of the research group was significantly higher than the control group (P <0.05).Before operation,nasal airway resistance and minimal nasal cross-section to anterior nostril distance (DCAN),nasal minimum cross-sectional area (NMCA),nasal volume (NCV),SNOT-20 CV,nasal endoscopic Lund-Kennedy scores showed no significant differences between two groups (P > 0.05).After operation,nasal airway resistance and DCAN and SNOT-20 CV,nasal endoscopic Lund-Kennedy scores decreased significantly in both groups,and these indexes in research group were significantly lower than the control group (P < O.05).The NMCA and NCV increased significantly in both groups,and these indexes in research group were significantly higher than control group (P < 0.05).There was no significant difference in incidence rate of postoperative complications between the two groups (P > 0.05).Conclusion Endoscopic middle turbinate angioplasty is effective in treating chronic sinusitis patients with nasal polyp,which can effectively relieve nasal obstruction and promote nasal function and the sense of smell.
