10%～20% of acute clinical sporatic hepatitis is hepatitis E (HE). HE has a severe diaease low mortality in general population of about 0.5～1.5%. It has been reported as severe disease and the mortality increased to 20% in pregnant women and old people. China is high-epidemic for hepatitis E virus (HEV). HEV is mainly transmitted through faecaloral route,data also showed that HEV could be transferred through blood donation. The epidemiology,diagnostics and vaccine development of HE is reviewed in this paper.

ObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) on blocking the development of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) induced by acid aspiration. MethodsTwenty new Zealand rabbits were used. Dilute HCl was instilled into right bronchus of the rabbits. The rabbits were then divided randomly into two groups: injury group and treatment group. In injury group ( n = 10) rabbits received no treatment except mechanical ventilation. In treatment group ( n = 10) immediately after acid instillation the rabbits received an intravenous bolus of PGE1 followed by a continuous infusion. Blood gas, airway pressure and dynamic and static compliance were measured before and after acid instillation. Blood samples were taken from artery for determination of 6-k-PGF1α, TXB2, NO2-/NO3- and ET-1. The animals were killed and the wet/dry lung weight (W/D) ratio and total protein of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF) of right lung were measured. Microscopic examination of the lung was done. ResultsIn treatment group PaO2 was significantly higher than that in injury group after acid instillation. Plasma 6-k-PGF1α and NO2-/NO3- levels were significantly higher in treatment group while plasma TXB2 and ET-1 levels were significantly lower. W/D ratio and TP of BALF of right lung were significantly lower in treatment group. The inflammatory changes were diffuse in injury group while in treatment group they were localized and less severe. Conclusions PGE1 can lessen severity of ARDS induced by acid aspiration. It may protect pulmonary vascular endothelial cells through maintaining the balance between PGI2 and TXA2 and that between NO and ET-1 .

Objective:To explore grouping methods of subdividing adjacent diagnosis related groups(DRGs) by introducing patient clinical complexity level(PCCL) principle and provide references for exploring DRG grouping method in line with context in China.Methods:Clinical complexity level of each complication was assigned by clinicians.PCCL model was selected to calculate the scores of clinical complexity cases.Each adjacent DRG was subdivided into DRG groups by classification and regression trees(CART) model.The rank-sum test was applied to test the statistical significances of the grouping results.Results:9 surgical adjacent DRGs were subdivided into 18 DRG groups.There were statistical significances in the differences of hospitalization expenses and length of stay among different DRG groups in each adjacent group.Conclusion:PCCL model showed high performance in DRG subdivision.The unification of the quality of medical records and coding were the key factors to ensure the reasonable grouping results.

Objective To explore the changes of frequency, BAFF expression and sensitivity to apoptosis of CD19 + CD5 + B cells in endometriosis patients and investigate the relationship between CD19 +CD5 + B cells and endometriosis. Methods Flow cytometry and quantitative PCR were used to assess the frequency, BAFF expression and sensitivity to apoptosis of CD19+ CD5 + B cells in the peripheral blood,peritoneal fluids and endometrium biopsies of 39 patients with endometriosis and 31 patients with myoma of uterus ( control subjects). Results: All 39 endometriosis patients had higher frequencies ( all P ＜ 0. 01 ) of CD19 + CD5 + B cells in the peripheral blood, peritoneal fluids and endometrium biopsies than that in 31 control subjects. CD19 + CD5 + B cells from endometriosis patients expressed higher BAFF, and were more resistant to CD95L-induced apoptosis than the cells from control subjects ( P ＜ 0. 01 ). Conclusion CD19 + CD5 + B cells might play an important role in the pathogenesis of endometriosis through higher BAFF expression and more resistance to CD95L-induced apoptosis.

The animals were killed and the wet/dry lung weight (W/D) ratio and total protein of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF) of right lung were measured. Microscopic examination of the lung was done. Results In treatment group PaO 2 was significantly higher than that in injury group after acid instillation. Plasma 6-k-PGF 1? and NO - 2/NO - 3 levels were significantly higher in treatment group while plasma TXB 2 and ET-1 levels were significantly lower. W/D ratio and TP of BALF of right lung were significantly lower in treatment group. The inflammatory changes were diffuse in injury group while in treatment group they were localized and less severe.

Objective To discuss the effect of three-dimensional conformal hypofractionated high-dose radiotherapy on non-small cell lung cancer in the elderly. Methods All patients were treated by the same way of fraction radiotherapy,with a prescription dose of 4-5?Gy,every other day,to a total dose of 48-55?Gy. Results Complete response was observed in 23(51.1%) patients,partial response in 15(33.3%) patients, with the overall response rate of 84.4%. The overall 1-,2-,3-year survival rates were 66.7%,48.9% and 39.1%.Conclusions Three-dimensional conformal hypofractionated high-dose radiotherapy is safe and effective, giving mild untoward side-effects.

In this article,the connotation of the knowledge management and services as well as the relationship between them were introduced.The specific measures about how to carry out these management and services were described.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the effect of one-stage repair of secondary nasolabial deformity and nasal septoplasty for cleft patients on nasal airway resistance (NAR). METHOD: Using active anterior rhinomanometry, NAR was measured in eighteen patients with cleft lip and palate who suffered form one-stage repair of secondary nasolabial deformity and septoplasty at per-and-post operation. RESULT: NAR was (0.664 +/- 0.200) kPa/(s x L) before operation, (0.304 +/- 0.180) kPa/(s x L) six months after operation, and (0.396 +/- 0.250) kPa/(s x L) twelve months after operation respectively. The differences are statistically significant (P < 0.01) between the NAR before and after operation. Subjective impression score of nasal patency was 7.5 +/- 1.5 before-operation, 2.1 +/- 2.0 after-operation for six months, 3.0 +/- 2.4 after-operation for twelve months. There are significant differences in the subjective impression score of nasal patency as well (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION Correction of septal deformities play a very important role in the operation for secondary nasolabial deformity, which can decrease NAR and improve the subjective impression of nasal patency.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the therapeutic methods and effect of pingyangmycin injection in huge hemangioma at Hypopharynx and laryngeal under suspension laryngoscopy. METHOD: To ananysize the medical records of 12 Patients with giant hemangioma at hypopharynx and laryngeal. Patients were underwent polysomnography before operation. Inseted the suspension laryngoscopy to pars laryngea by mouth to exposing the hemangioma under general anaesthesia, then injected Pingyangmycin by a long-tube needling (one time per three weeks, accumulated dose less than 50 mg). RESULT: Among all patients, ten were cured and two showed obvious improvement. The data of PSG after operation indicates that the symptom of anoxia of post-operation were significantly ameliorated than that of pre-operation, no recurrence occurred during one year follow-up of the hemangioma. CONCLUSION The methods of pingyangmycin injection under suspension laryngoscopic surgery is significantly enhanced clinical effect and improved the life quality of patients with huge hemangioma, which with low risk, high security, can ameliorating anoxia, complete cure, and is a ideal therapeutic measure.
