Objective: To systematically evaluate the effect of colostrum on immunoglobulin A (IgA) levels among premature infants, so as to provide the evidence for improving premature infants' health with colostrum feeding. Methods: Randomized controlled clinical trials (RCTs) or controlled clinical trials (CCTs) pertaining to the effect of colostrum and IgA levels among premature infants were retrieved in national and international databases from inception to September 30, 2022, including CNKI, Wanfang Data, PubMed and Web of Science. Standardized mean difference (SMD) was used as an effect index for meta-analysis. The robustness of the results was evaluated using sensitivity analysis, and the publication bias was evaluated using Begg's test, Egger's test and funnel plot. Results : A total of 650 publications were retrieved initially, and 10 studies were finally included, including 9 RCTs and one1 CCT, with 677 participants. Meta-analysis showed higher secretory salivary secretory IgA levels among premature infants with colostrum feeding than among controls (SMD=0.49, 95%CI: 0.08-0.89), and there were no significant differences between groups in terms of urinary secretory IgA levels (SMD=0.19, 95%CI: -0.39-0.77) or blood IgA levels (SMD=0.29, 95%CI: -0.01-0.59). Sensitivity analysis showed robustness of meta-analysis results, and no publication bias was examined. Conclusion Colostrum feeding may increase salivary secretory IgA levels among premature infants; however, it has no effect on urine salivary secretory IgA levels or blood IgA levels.

Objective To compare the mRNA expressions of interleukin (IL)-17 and IL-23 in peripheral blood of patients with psoriasis vulgaris versus healthy individuals,assess the relationship of these parameters with psoriasis area and severity index (PASI) score,and to investigate the therapeutic mechanisms of total glucosides of peony (TGP) for psoriasis vulgaris.Methods Fifty patients with psoriasis vulgaris and 40 healthy individuals were enrolled in this study.Of these patients,42 were treated with TGP of 600-900 mg twice a day for 8 weeks.Blood samples were obtained from all the healthy individuals,50 patients before treatment,42 patients after 4-week treatment,and 23 patients after 8-week treatment.Real-time fluorescence-based quantitative reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) was used to determine the mRNA expression levels of IL-17 and IL-23 in the blood samples.The severity of psoriasis was evaluated using PASI score before and after the treatment.Statistical analysis was done by t test,rank sum test,and Pearson correlation analysis using the SPSS16.0 software.Results The IL-17 and IL-23 mRNA expression levels (given in △Ct value) in the patients before treatment were significantly higher than those in the healthy controls (IL-17,-5.32 ± 0.80 vs.2.79 ± 0.76,t =47.71,P ＜ 0.05; IL-23,-5.43 ± 0.68 vs.-3.77 ± 0.86,t =10.38,P ＜ 0.05),and positively correlated with the PASI score (r =0.61,0.52 respectively,both P ＜ 0.05).A significant decrease was observed in the mRNA expression levels of IL-17 and IL-23 as well as PASI score in the 42 patients after 4-week treatment with TGP compared with those before treatment(IL-17,-2.24 ± 0.61 vs.-5.30 ± 0.78,t =20.40,P ＜ 0.05; IL-23,-1.97 ± 0.74 vs.-5.44 ± 0.68,t =21.69,P ＜ 0.05; PASI,5.8 ± 2.7 vs.9.4 ± 4.2,t =4.68,P ＜ 0.05),and in the 23 patients after 8-week treatment compared with those after 4-wek treatment(IL-17,-1.51 ± 0.78 vs.-2.21 ± 0.59,t =3.50,P ＜ 0.05; IL-23,-1.27 ± 0.81 vs.-1.89 ± 0.72,t =2.70,P＜ 0.05; PASI,3.8 ± 1.8 vs.7.3 ± 2.5,t =5.47,P＜ 0.05).Conclusions It seems that both IL-17 and IL-23 are involved in the pathogenesis of psoriasis vulgaris,and TGP treatment can reduce the mRNA expression levels of IL-17 and IL-23 as well as PASI score in patients with psoriasis vulgaris.

Objective:To observe the effects of ischemic postconditioning (I-postC)on the lung injury after limb ischemia reperfusion (LIR)in the rats,and to investigate the protective effect and the possible mechanisms. Methods:24 Wistar rats were randomly divided into control group, ischemia-reperfusion group (IR group)and I-postC group (n=8 ). Referring to routine method in our department, the model rats which underwent 4 h ischemia and 4 h reperfusion of hind limbs were made.In control group,the rubber band around the limb was loose and the blood flow was not blocked. In I-postC group, before reperfusion, ischemia 5 min and reperfusion 5 min were performed in the rats,repeated for 3 times and then perfusion 4 h was taken,The blood and lung tissue from every rat were taken accurately. The percentages of CD1 8 positive cells in peripheral blood,the levels of soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1)and P-selectin in plasma,the myeloperoxidase (MPO)activities in lung tissue,the levels of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1)and P-selectin in lung tissue of the rats in various groups were detected. The partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2 ) and partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2 )were measured.The morphological changes of lung tissue under light and electron microscopes were observed.Results:Compared with control group,the percentage of CD18 positive cells and the levels of sICAM-1 and P-selectin of the rats in IR groups were increased (P<0.01);PaO2 and PaCO2 were decreased significantly;the MPO activity in lung tissue was also significantly increased (P<0.01).The HE staining results showed lung interstitial vascular dilation, congestion, PMN infiltration, the increased gap blood vessel, alveolar septal thickening,alveolar exudation, bronchial epithelial cell shedding and necrosis of the rats in IR group. Compared with IR group,the values of biochemical indicators mentioned above were decreased obviously (P<0.01);PaO2 and PaCO2 were increased significantly (P<0.01);the activities of inflammatory factors in plasma and lung tissue were decreased (P < 0.01 ); the pathological changes of lung damage were improved significantly. Conclusion:I-postC can reduce the lung injury after LIR in the rats,and the mechanism may be related to inhibiting the inflammatory reaction.

Objective To observe the effects of ischemic postconditioning (I-postC) on lung injury after limb ischemia reperfusion (LIR) in rats, and to investigate the protective effect and the mechanisms. Methods Twenty-four Wistar rats were divided into three groups:control group (group Control), ischemia-reperfusion group (group IR) and ischemic postcondi?tioning group (group I-postC). Referring to routine method in our department, the model rats underwent 4-hour ischemia and 4-hour reperfusion of hind limbs were made. In group Control, the rubber band around the limb was loose,which did not block the blood flow. Rats in group I-postC were given repeated 3 times of 5 min ischemia-5 min reperfusion, and then did perfusion 4 h before reperfusion. The blood and lung samples were collected for detecting arterial gas of partial pressure of oxygen [p(O2)] and partial pressure of carbon dioxide [p(CO2)]. The plasma and lung tissue levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and xanthine oxidase (XOD) were detected. The morphological changes of lung tissue were ob?served under light microscope and electron microscope. Results It was found that after suffering from ischemia-reperfu?sion, levels of p(O2) and p(CO2) decreased significantly. The activity of SOD in plasma and lung tissues decreased, but XOD and MDA increased significantly (P<0.05). With microscope, lung interstitial vascular dilation, infiltration of neutrophils, the width of the alveolar space, alveolar septal thickening and alveolar exudate were found. Compared with IR group, it was found that p(O2) and p(CO2) increased significantly in group I-postC. The activity of SOD in plasma and lung tissues in?creased, but XOD and MDA decreased significantly(P<0.05). The mild damage of pathological changes were found. Conclu?sion Ischemic postconditioning can reduce the lung injury after limb ischemia reperfusion in rats, which may be related to the inhibition of lipid peroxidation.

Objective To investigate the effect of splenectomy on infarct volume in middle cerebral artery occlusion in focal cerebral ischemia rats and its possible mechanisms.Methods Eighteen male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into spleneetomy,sham splenectomy,and control groups (n =6 in each group).A model of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) was induced by the intraluminal suture method 2 weeks after spleneetomy.The rats were decapitated and their brains were removed after 24 hours.The infarct volume was measured with Nissl body staining The number of macrophages in ischemic cortex was detected with immunofluorescence staining Results The infarct volume in the splenectomy group (34.93％ + 3.23％ )was significantly smaller than that in the sham splenectomy group (74.33％ + 2.36％ ; q =39.399,P ＜ 0.001 ) and the control group (77.30％ + 2.62％ ; q =42.369,P ＜ 0.001 ).However,there was no significant difference between the sham splenectomy group and the control group (q =2.970,P =0.082).The number of macrophages of the ischemic cortex in the splenectomy group (3.4 ± 1.07/per high power field) was significantly less than that in the sham splenectomy group (20.7±4.37/per high power field; q =17.300,P＜0.001) and the control group (18.87 ±4.17/per high power field; q =15.467,P ＜0.001).However,there was no significant difference between the sham splenectomy group and the control goup (q =1.833,P =0.384).Conclusions Splenectomy may reduce the infarct volume by reducing the number of macrophages in ischemic corticalregion.

Objective To discuss the clinical characteristic of middle ear malformation with cholesteatoma.Methods From September,2011 to November,2016,23 cases of middle ear malformation with cholesteatoma were collected.Their symptoms,ENT examination,temporal bone high resolution computed tomography (HRCT) and intraoperative findings were analyzed.Results All 23 patients had hearing loss.90.0％ patients had ear discharge and tinnitus.86.96％ patients had perforation in pars flaccida of tympanic membrane.95.7％ patients had poor mastoid gasification.73.9％ patients had undeveloped or dysplastic tympanic antrum.100％ patients had destruction of the ossicular chain.56.5％ patients had malformation of the ossicular chain.52.2％ patients had exposed facial nerve.30.4％ patients had hyperplasia of the attic bone.Conclusion The symptoms and physical examinations of middle ear malformation with cholesteatoma are the same as middle ear cholesteatoma.Poor mastoid gasification can usually be detected on temporal bone HRCT.The most common malformation is dysplastic tympanic antrum,followed by malformation of the ossicular chain,exposed facial nerve and hyperplasia of the attic bone.Temporal bone HRCT can indicate the malformation and destruction quite well.

Objective To master the area scope and epidemic situation of Kaschin-Beck disease (KBD) in Harbin,and to accumulate data and information for the midterm examination and evaluation of the 12th Five-Year Plan of the National Endemic Disease Prevention and Control.Methods In the original 10 counties (districts,cities) of Harbin with KBD,2 surveys were carried out from 2011 to 2015,5 townships were extracted in each county (district,city),3 villages were extracted in each township,clinical investigation and X-ray examination of 7-12 years old children were carried out;according to the criteria for Diagnosis of Kaschin-Beck Disease,a clinical survey was conducted in 2013 in the 10 counties (districts,cities) with KBD.According to the KBD prevalence and X-ray examination results in each county (district,city),reference to Criteria for Control of Kaschin-Beck Disease Areas,Criteria for Delimitation and Classification of Kaschin-Beck Disease Area,Evaluation Methods for Endemic Diseases Control and Elimination,the types of the disease areas,control and eliminating situation were determined;organization and management of the control and prevention measures were evaluated.Results Currently,there were 10 counties (districts,cities),373 villages,6 969 patients with KBD in Harbin.According to the KBD area division and control standard,369 villages were light KBD areas (prevalence of clinical degrees Ⅰ and above patients or detection rate of 7-12 children by X-ray for local residents ≤ 10％) and 4 villages were medium KBD areas (prevalence of clinical degrees Ⅰ and above patients or detection rate of 7-12 children by Xray for local residents ＞ 10％-≤20％).Clinical census showed that the people under 20 years had no cases with degree Ⅰ and above in each village,X-ray detection rate was 0 in 7-12 years old children,in line with the standards of history KBD areas.There were no clinical KBD cases in 7-12 years old children in all villages of KBD areas,positive detection rate of children by X-ray was 0 in the sampling KBD area villages,in line with the standards of eliminate technical standards of KBD area village.The management index scores of KBD were from 85 to 95 points in every area county (district,city),getting to the eliminating requirement which was more than 85 points.Conclusion The KBD areas have narrowed down and prevalence has declined significantly in Harbin,which has reached the area eliminating standards and the index of basically eliminating KBD proposed by the 12th Five-Year Plan.

Objectives To investigate the effects of seasonal changes on peritoneal dialysis associated peritonitis (PDAP) in patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD),and to provide evidence for clinical prevention and treatment of PDAP.Methods All episodes of PD-related peritonitis during clinic follow-up in maintenance PD patients from Jan 1st,2007 to Dec 31st,2015 in Peking University People's Hospital were reviewed.The incidence of peritonitis,laboratory indexes,pathogens and clinical outcomes in different seasons were recorded and analyzed.One-way ANOVA and chi square test were employed to compare the incidence of PDAP and related data in different seasons,and Pearson correlation was used to analyze correlations between PDAP rate and monthly mean temperature and mean humidity.Results During nine years,a total of 119 PD patients occurred 190 times of peritonitis during home PD.The PDAP rate in summer was the highest,0.21 episodes/year,followed by spring (0.16 episodes/year) and autumn (0.16 episodes/risk year),but there was no significant difference among peritonitis rates in four seasons.There were significant positive correlation between monthly mean temperature,monthly mean humidity and the peritonitis rate (mean temperature:r=0.828,P ＜ 0.01;mean humidity r=0.657,P ＜ 0.05).(2) As for bacteria,in Summer the PDAP rate caused by Staphylococcus aureus and Coagulase negative staphylococcus (CoNS),and Gram-negative bacteria was higher than that in other seasons,but there was no statistical difference.There were significant positive correlation between monthly mean temperature,mean humidity and the rate of CoNS peritonitis (mean temperature:r=0.704,P ＜ 0.05;mean humidity:r=0.607,P ＜ 0.05).(3) There were no statistical difference among results of PD related peritonitis in different seasons about general situation,clinical manifestation,causes of peritonitis and laboratory index before peritonitis episodes.PD procedure-related problems were the main cause of peritonitis in summer and autumn.(4) The cure rate of all peritonitis was 90％.The highest cure rate was in autumn and winter,while the lowest cure rate was in summer,but no statistical difference.Among the peritonitis episodes with treatment failure,52.6％ occurred in summer.Conclusions There is some correlation between the rate of PDAP and seasons.Higher temperature and higher humidity were significantly correlated with higher peritonitis rate,especially the rate of CoNS peritonitis.The prognosis of PDAP in summer was relatively poor,with higher proportion of hospitalization and lower cure rate.
