Objective: To evaluate the clinical effect of individualized enteral nutritional (EN) support in severe stroke patients.Methods: Totally 120 severe stroke patients with nutritional risk were divided into two groups according to single or double admission number.The 60 patients in the intervention group received an individualized EN with different formula and concentrations according to the clinical status,and supplemented trace elements as occasion required.In the routine group, the patients received EN with standard formula.The energy supply was 83-125 kJ· kg-1·d-1 in both groups.Blood albumin(Alb), pre-albumin(PA), hemoglobin(Hb) and vitamin C(VC) were examined before and after the 21-day nutritional support.The lung infection and gastrointestinal (GI) complications were observed, and the hospital stay and cost were recorded as well.Results: After 21 day''s nutrition support, the serum levels of Alb, PA and VC in the intervention group were not statisticly significant than before (P＞0.05), and the serum levels of Alb, PA and VC were significantly higher than those in the routine group(P＜0.05).The incidence of complications in the in the intervention group was lower than that in the routine group (P＜0.05), and the length of hospital stay and hospitalization was shorter than that in the routine group (P＜0.05).Conclusion: Individualized enteral nutritional support can significantly improve nutritional status, reduce inflammation reactions and GI complications in severe stroke patients, which is worthy of clinical use.

Objective To study the clinical application of the complete audiologic evaluation battery consisting of ABR,ASSR and behavioral audiometry in sound field for the identification of sensorineural losses in children.Methods In the study 48 children were divided as group PTA of the children assessed by pure tone audiometry and ABR and ASSR test,and group BA of the children unable to perform on behavioral evaluations.Results The analysis of the audiometric results of group PTA showed significant correlation between the ASSR thresholds and pure tone thresholds(P＜0.01) at various frequencies.The correlation coefficients were 0.75,0.76,0.76,and 0.83 at different frequencies.The ASSR-PTA linear regression was utilized.The comparison of the ABR and ASSR results of group BA indicated that 23 ears responded in ASSR but without responses in ABR.Those without ASSR responses also had no ABR There were 116 tests in total four frequencies for the 29 ears.83 responses were obtained from ASSR,89 responses from behavior audiometry and 96 from the use of the both tests.Conclusion The comprehensive audiologic evaluation battery could be used to test younger children with severe heating loss children as compared to the pure tone audiometry alone.More detailed data can be obtained thus from children to assist in rehabilitation in a more effective mariner.

Objective To study the expression and its clinical significance of Oct4 in prostate cancer.Methods The Oct4 mRNA expression levels in 2 normal prostate (NP) samples and 8 prostate cancer (Pca) samples were determined by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis.The Oct4 protein expression levels in 10 NP samples,10 benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) samples and 45 Pca samples were detected by immunohisochemical analysis.Results The relative expression levels of Oct4 mRNA were 0.91,0.76,0.66,0.63,0.55,0.50,0.48,0.42 in 8 Pca samples and 0 in 2 NP samples,respectively.The positive rates of Oct4 protein expression was higher in Pca tissues than in NP and BPH tissues (91.1％ vs.0.0％,91.1％ vs.0.0％,both P＜0.05).The level of Oct4 protein was increased with higher hostologic grade and clinical stage of prostate cancer.The strong positive rates of Oct4 expression were 72.7％ and 30.0％ in Pca tissues with and without lymph node metastasis respectively,and there was a significant difference in the strong positive rate between them (P＜0.05).Conclusions The Oct4 expression is closely related to the differentiation and invasion of tumor.Oct4 might be an important index for the prognosis of prostate cancer.

50 days),whereas third party skin grafts were vigorously rejected.Conclusion Blockade of CD28-B7 and CD40-CD40 ligand interactions resulted in long-term allograft survival and donor-specific tolerance in mouse cardiac transplantation without chronic rejection.

Objective:To study the effects of recombinant human platelet-derived growth factor-BB(rhPDGF-BB)combined with recombinant human transforming growth factor-β1 (rhTGF-β1 )on the expression of FAK mRNA of osteoclasts in the alveolar bone on the pressure side of orthodontic teeth in rats.Methods:Orthodontic tooth movement model was established in 160 male SD rats.The rats in experimental group were treated by injection of 10 ng rhPDGF-BB and 5 ng rhTGF-β1 in the buccal submucosal area of the mo-lar every other day from day 1 afterburner,while those in control group received equivalent volumes of PBS.The rats were sacrificed at 1,4,7,10 and 14 days(n=16)after appliance placement.Specimens were collected.Osteoclasts in the alveolar bone on the pres-sure side of the orthodontic teeth were observed by TRAP staining,the FAK mRNA expression was quantified by quantitative RT-PCR.Results:rhPDGF-BB combined with rhTGF-β1 significantly promoted an increasing number of osteoclasts on the compressing side(P<0.05),increased the expression of FAK mRNA at day 4 and 7(P<0.05),then decresed it to the control level(P>0.05) at day 14.Conclusion:Combination of rhPDGF-BB and rhTGF-β1 can increase the number of osteoclasts in the alveolar bone on compressing side,and promote FAK mRNA expression in osteoclasts.

0.05). Conclusion Preproghrelin-Leu72Met is not significantly associated with T2DM and DN in Shanghai Han populations,while T2DM with AA genotype is characterized by significant declination in urine microalbumin when compared with CA and CC genotypes.Leu72Met polymorphism(C→A)may postpone the development of microalbuminuria in T2DM subjects.

Objective To investigate the effect of parecoxib on postoperative hyperalgesia induced by remifentanil-based anesthesia.Methods One hundred ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients,aged 21-64 yr,weighing 50-80 kg,undergoing elective laparoscopic operation,were randomly divided into 5 groups ( n =20 each):parecoxib group (group P),small dose remifentanil group (group S),large dose remifentanil group (group L),small dose remifentanil + parecoxib group (group SP) and large dose remifentanil + parecoxib group (group LP).Parecoxib 40 mg was injected intravenously at 30 min before anesthesia in groups P,SP and LP.Anesthesia was induced with midazolam0.05 mg/kg,etomidate 0.2 mg/kg,cisatracurium 0.15 mg/kg and remifentanil 1 μg/kg (fentanyl 4 μg/kg in group P).The patients was tracheal intubated and mechanically ventilated.PETCO2 was maintained at 35-45 mm Hg.Anesthesia was maintained with infusion of remifentanil at 0.05 μg·kg-1 ·min-1 (in groups S and SP) or at 0.3 μg· kg- 1· min- 1 (in groups L and LP) combined with inhalation of sevoflurane and infusion of cisatracurium at 0.12 mg·kg-1·h-1.At 30 min after operation,numeric rating scale (NRS) was used to assess the degree of pain at rest and during activity.Tramadol 1.5 mg/kg was injected intravenously after operation if needed.NRS scores were maintained ≤5.The use of tramadol and adverse effects during 24 h after operation were recorded.Results Compared with group P,NRS scores at rest and during activity were significantly increased at 30 min after operation in groups S and L,the incidence of shivering and the number of patients who needed tramadol were significantly increased in group L,and no change was found in NPS scores at rest and during activity at 30 min after operation,the incidence of adverse effects and the number of patients who needed tramadol in groups SP and LP.Compared with group S,NRS scores at rest and during activity at 30 min after operation,the incidence of shivering and the number of patients who needed tramadol were significantly increased in group L,NRS scores at rest and during activity at 30 min after operation were significantly decreased and no change was found in the incidence of adverse effects and the number of patients who needed tramadol in group SP.Compared with group L,NRS scores at rest and during activity at 30 min after operation,the incidence of shivering and the number of patients who needed tramadol were significantly decreased in group LP.Conclusion Intravenous injection of parecoxib 40 mg at 30 min before anesthesia can attenuate postoperative hyperalgesia induced by remifentanil-based anesthesia.

Objective To investigate the effects of neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin(NGAL) on renal tubular epithelial cells apoptosis and apoptosis-regulated protein fas,bcl-2 in rat renal ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI).Methods Renal IRI models of rats were established.Rats were randomly divided into 3 groups,including control group,IRI model group and NGAL group.The pathological change of kidney tissue was investigated by hemotoxylin-eosin staining.Renal tubular epithelial cells apoptosis was detected by TUNEL method.Expression of fas and bcl-2 was measured by real-time PCR and Western blotting.Results Compared with IRI model group,NGAL group showed a decreased number of renal tubular epithelial cells apoptosis [(8.6±3.4)/HP vs (20.8±3.7)/HP,P＜0.05],down-regulated fas mRNA (2.34±0.51 vs 6.84±2.34,P＜ 0.05),fas protein (0.65±0.05 vs 0.95±0.08,P＜0.05) and up-regulated bcl-2 protein (0.33±0.05 vs 0.24±0.03,P＜0.05),but the bcl-2 mRNA had no significant change.Conclusion NGAL can protect renal tubular epithelial cells in renal IRI,which may be associated with decreasing cell apoptosis and adjusting protein expression by apoptosis-regulated cytokines.

Objective To study the protective effects of the coronary collateral circulation to ischemic myocardial regional function with coronary artery stenosis≥75%using 2D-strain technique.Methods Two-dimensional images of apical four-,two-chambers,long-axis views and LV short-axis views were obtained in 121 patients.According to the results of coronary angiogram,all the 121 patients were divided into 3 groups:group 1,with normal coronary artery;group 2,with stenosis≥75%in≥1 main coronary artery involved right coronary artery,left anterior descending branch and left circumflex branch and with the presence of coronary collateral circulation(CCC);group 3,with stenosis≥75% in≥1 main coronary artery but with no presence of CCC.The segments' systolic peak strain(Sps),strain rate (SRs),end systolic strain (Yes),early diastolic strain rate (SRe) and late diastolic strain rate (SRa) in longitudinal (L),radial (R),circumficial (C) directions and the rotation (Rot),rotation rate were analyzed with EchoPAC offline software.Results Compared with 1 group,LSps,LSes,LSRs,LSRa,RSRe,RSRa,CSRe,Rotsre,Rotsra of 2 group,LSps,LSes,LSRs,LSRa,LSRe,RSes,RSRs,RSRe,RSRa,CSps,CSes,CSRs,CSRe,CSRs,Rotps,Rotsrs,Rotsre,Rotsra of 3 group decreased significantly (P＜0.05) ;compared with 2 group,LSps,LSes,LSRs,RSes,RSRs,CSps,CSes,CSRs,CSRa,Rotps,Rotsrs,Rotsre of 3 group decreased markedly (P＜0.05).Conclusions Coronary collateral circulation provides a protection effection to ischemic myocardial regional function.2D-strain technique may serve as an efficient method to assess ischemic myocardial regional function.

Objective To assess the incidence,risk factors and mortality of acute kidney injury(AKI)in patients with chronic myelogeneous leukemia(CML)after myeloablative allogenetic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(HSCT). Methods Renal function in 93 CML patients undergone myeloablative allo-HSCT was retrospectively analyzed by the RIFLE criteria. Results Thirty-nine patients (41.9%) developed AKI at a median of 40 days after allo-HSCT, including 24 AKI-R patients(25.8%), 10 AKI-I patients(10.8%) and 5 AKI-F patients (5.4%). The morbidity of AKI in patients with ≥Ⅲ acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) and without ＜Ⅲ GVHD was (81.82±11.63)% and (36.59±5.32)% (P=0.0037)rospectively. The morbidity of AKI in patients with increased total bilirubin and without increased total bilirubin was (72.73±13.43)% and (37.04±5.37)%(P=0.0192) respectively. ≥Ⅲ aGVHD was peor-prognostic factor of AKI and RR was 2.773 [95%CI (1.073-7.167), P=0.035]. RR of AKI-I and AKI-F in patients with ≥Ⅲ aGVHD was 6.320195%CI (1.464-27.291), P=0.013]. The mortality within 100 days after allo-HSCT of patients with AKI was significantly different as compared to patients without AKI (P=0.001). Six-mouth survival rates of different class AKI patients after myeloablative allo-HSCT were (86.96±7.02)% (AKI-R), (70.00±14.49)% (AKI-I), 0 (AKI-F) (P=0.000)respectively. Conclusions AKI is one of the main complications in CML patients after myeloablative allo-HSCT. ≥Ⅲ aGVHD and increased total bilimbin are poor-prognostic factors of AKI, and higher morbidity of AKI-I and AKI-F can be found in patients with ≥Ⅲ aGVHD. With the deteriorated AKI, 6-month survival is decreased. RIFLE criteria is sensitive to the early diagnosis of renal function. Moreover RIFLE can monitor the progression of AKI and predict the clinical outcome.
