Objective IFN-? is a pleiotropic cytokine with potent immunomodulatory effects and antiviral activity. To study the mechanism of IFN-? clearing duck hepatitis B virus (DHBV) in ducks, it is essential to establish a method to quantify expression of DuIFN-? in immune response. In the present study,a semi-quantitative competitive RT-PCR was developed to quantify expression of duck IFN-?(DuIFN-?) mRNA by PBMCs. Methods Based on ?-actin consensus sequence, fishing the ?-actin gene as house keeping gene from duck PBMC by RT-PCR. A competitive internal control was constructed and the competitive RT-PCR system could be used to quantify the transcription of DuIFN-? mRNA. Results After duck PBMCs were stimulated in vitro with PHA, the peak of DuIFN-? expression was at 24-36h. Then RT-PCR method was applied to detect DuIFN-? mRNA transcription by PBMCs from DHBV infected ducks immunized with DuIFN-? plasmid plus DNA vaccine or DNA vaccine alone. Results showed that expression of DuIFN-? in ducks co-immunized with DuIFN-? plasmid were higher than other groups immunized without DuIFN-? plasmid as adjuvant. Conclusions The results indicated that DuIFN-? gene could be a useful adjuvant to develop vaccines. The semi-quantitation of DuIFN-? mRNA by competitive RT-PCR provides the basis for future study of the mechanism of IFN-? in duck hepatitis B virus persistent infection.

Purpose Blast lung injury is severe, and is the main causes of death in explosion. This paper aims to explore the imaging features of blast lung injury, and to provide reference for clinical diagnosis and care. Materials and Methods The clinical data of 37 patients with primary blast lung injury stricken in the 8.2 Kunshan explosion in 2014 were retrospectively studied, with regard to the degree of burn, area, auxiliary emergency treatment and medical history. The imaging manifestations of X-ray and/or CT were also analyzed. Results ① The X-ray and/or CT findings of chest showed that 6 cases (16.2%) presented no obvious abnormality of lung parenchyma, 14 cases (37.8%) manifested increase of lung markings and spot-like clouding opacity, 6 cases (16.2%) presented ground glass opacity, 7 cases (18.9%) manifested patchy shadow, 4 cases (10.8%) showed diffuse consolidation. 6 cases (16.2%) with pleural effusion, 6 cases (16.2%) complicated with pneumothorax and hydropneumothorax, 4 cases (10.8%) with enlarged podoid and pericardial effusion, 2 cases (5.4%) with mediastinal hematoma, 9 cases (24.3%) with rib fracture. The positive rate of X-ray film inspection was 72.2% (13/18), yet that of CT reached 92.9% (13/14). ② Five patients who had not been seen obvious abnormal in emergency lung examination appeared mottling shadows or flake fuzzy shadows in the examination on the second day; 9 cases with aggravated symptoms and infection signs displayed relieved signs, expanded or changed primary lesions. Conclusion Imaging examination is an important tool in the diagnosis of primary blast lung injury. CT is superior to X-ray film on the detection of lesions; therefore, CT examination on chest should be carried out as soon as possible if conditions are allowed.

Objective To compare the effectiveness and safety of radiofrenquency ablation(RFA) with other therapeutic methods for patients with early hepatocelluar carcinoma(HCC). Methods Randomized clinical trials(RCTs)which compared the efficacy or safety of RFA with other therapeutic methods for primary hepatocellular carcinoma in Cochrane library,EMBASE,PubMed,OVID and CBM were searched.Trials were considered of high quality if methodological quality score was 3 or more according to Jadad standard.Statistical heterogeneity between trials was evaluated bv STATA 9.0 and considered to exist when P＜0.1.Heterogeneity of the included articles was tested and used to select proper effective model for calculation.Sensitivity analysis was performed and publication bias was investigated through visual inspection of funnel plots and Egger regression model.Results Six RCTs including 862 cases were analyzed.As compared with other therapeutic approaches,RFA significandy increased 3-year overall survival rate and reduced local recurrence rate of early hepatocelluar carcinoma:the total OR were 2.06(95%CI being 1.54-2.77,P=0.000)and 0.40(95%CI being 0.28-0.57,P=0.000)respectively.As compared with other therapeutic approaches,the total OR of new HCC recurrence rates,extrahepatic metastasis rate and major complications in patients with HCC treated with RFA were 0.92 (95%CI being 0.68-1.24),0.98(95%CI being 0.30-3.22),1.35(95%CI being 0.49-3.77)respectively,showing no significant differences(P＞0.05).Inspection of the funnel plots for all outcome measures did not reveal evidence of publication bias(P=0.670,0.160,0.884,0.087,0.317,respectively,by Egger regression model).Conclusions RFA is superior to other treatment methods with respect to local recurrence and 3 year overall survival in early HCC and is the preferred tberapeutic method for small HCC because it is minimally invasive,simple and convenient.

AIM: To study the changes of iNOS mRNA ,protein and the production of nitric oxide(NO) as well as whether puerarin regulates the expression of iNOS mRNA during the formation of diabetic rat cataract. METHODS: One hundred and eight Sprague-Dawley(SD) rats were randomly divided into three groups, thirty-six rats were taken as control group, seventy two rats were injected peritoneally with streptozotocin(STZ,45mg/kg) to establish animal model of diabetic cataract, and then divided into STZ (36) and puerarin(36) treatment groups. Morphologic changes of lens were observered with slit lamp and light microscope; Samples were taken at 20th, 40th, 60th day and the changes in iNOS mRNA and protein expression of lens epithelium cells(LEC)as well as production of NO and NOS activity were determined with reverse transcription -polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR), western blot, and biochemical method ,respectively. RESULTS: Morphologyic changes of LEC, up-regulation of iNOS mRNA and iNOS protein as well as increase in NO production and NOS activity in the LEC were observered during the formation of rat diabetic cataract. Compared with TZ group, puerarin treatment group showed distinctly down-regulation of iNOS mRNA and iNOS protein and decrease in NO production and NOS activity as well as attenuation of morphologic changes. CONCLUSIONS: There are morphologic changes of LEC and up-regulation of iNOS mRNA and as well as increase in NO production and NOS activity in the LEC during the formation of diabetic rat cataract , and treatment with puerarin can reverse the above changes.

Abstract BACKGROUND: Large amounts of data have shown that Chinese herbal monomer has a neuroprotective effect, and can improve the quality of life in stroke patients with cerebral nervous system injury. Nuclear-factor-erythroid 2-related (Nrf2) factor has neuroprotective effect on hemorrhagic stroke and ischemic stroke, which is an important way to reverse the damage of nervous system through the natural non-toxic Chinese herbs or composition, but it is rarely reported systemicaly. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the neuroprotective effect of Chinese herbal monomersvia the Nrf2 signal pathway in stroke patients. METHODS:The first author retrieved the CNKI, VIP, Medline, and PubMed databases by computer. The keywords were “Nrf2, ARE, stroke, traditional Chinese medicine, neuroprotection” in Chinese and English,respectively. Articles concerning the neuroprotective role of Chinese herbal monomervia Nrf2 were analyzed and discussed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Totaly 85 articles were retrieved. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 46 articles were included in result analysis. The results show that a variety of monomers can exert neuroprotective effectsvia the Nrf2 pathway. Chinese herbal monomers include organic acids, phenols, saponins, terpenes, flavonoids, alkaloids, and other single or composite components. Traditional Chinese medicine has the clear neuroprotective effect after stroke, but it is lack of regularity, and it is stil need to expand the data and further research as the basis.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of itopride in the treatment of functional dyspepsia (FD) according to the data of published clinical studies.Methods The papers about randomized controlled trials (RCT) of itopride in treatment of FD were searched from Cochrane library,EMBASE,PubMed,Elsevier,web of science (ISI),China national knonledge internet (CNKI),VIP Chinese Scientific and Technologic Periodical Database and Wanfang data,and the feature information in the studies were extracted.The relative risk (RR) value was used for count data and the weighted mean difference (WMD) was used for measurement data.The proper effect model was selected according to the results of heterogeneity test and the publication bias was investigated through visual inspection of funnel plots.Results A total of nine RCT met the inclusion standard.Of 2620 FD cases,1372 received itopride treatment and 1248 cases received placebo or other medicine as control treatment.The RR value of total effective rates,postprandial fullness and early satiety effective rates in itopride treated FD patients was 1.11 (95％CI:1.01,1.21; P=0.02),1.18 (95％CI:1.04,1.33; P=0.009),1.24 (95％CI:1.01,1.53; P=0.04),which showed the curative effects of itropride group were all better than those of control group.However there was no statistical significance in epigastric discomfort.The WMD of effective rates evaluated with the leeds dyspepsia questionnaire (LDQ) score was-1.38 (95％CI:-1.75,-1.01; P＜0.01),which showed the curative effect of itropride group was better than that of control group.For safety,the adverse effects rates of itopride groups were similar with control groups.The funnel plots of each inspection index presented wide bottom,narrow up and symmetrical graphics,which indicated that there was no publication bias.Conclusion Itopride has better efficacy in general symptoms,postprandial fullness,early satiety and LDQ score in FD patients,and few effects are detected.
