Objective To explore the mechanism of combined treatment with methotrexate (MTX) and Ga-Al-As laser irradiation for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and to assess the effectiveness of Ga-Al-As laser therapy for RA. Methods Twenty-two patients with RA were randomly and evenly divided into two groups: the treatment group treated with Ga-Al-As laser irradiation combined with MTX and the control group treated with MTX only. Ten age-matched normal subjects were observed as normal controls. The amount of CD4 + CD25 + regulatory T cells in peripheral blood (PB) of the normal controls and that in the PB and synovial fluid (SF) of the 22 patients before and after therapy were counted by flow cytometry. Meanwhile, the amount of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in synovial fluid of the patients was measured before and after treatment by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). Results After combined treatment the clinical symptoms of the patients were improved significantly, and the amount of PGE2in SF decreased significantly. The count of CD4 + CD25 + regulatory T cells in PB of RA patients was ( 3.84 ±3.20) % , compared to ( 10.05 ± 7.04) % in healthy individuals. The count of CD4 + CD25 + regulatory T cells in SF of RA patients was ( 14.89 ± 12.30) % , much higher than that in PB. The count of CD4 + CD25 + regulatory T cells in SF decreased significantly in treatment group compared to control group (P ＜0.05). Conclusion Ga-Al-As laser irradiation eombined with MTX can effectively improve the clinical symptoms of RA patients. It may be related to the decrease of amount of PGE2 and count of CD4 + CD25 + regulatory T cell in PB and SF.

Objective To observe the effect of ritodrine hydrochloride on peripheral blood and tocolysis rate of patients with threatened premature labor.Methods89 cases of patients with threatened premature labor were selected from October 2015 to September 2016 and randomly divided into two groups, research group with 45 cases treated with ritodrine hydrochloride and control group with 44 cases treated with epsom salt.The peripheral blood, extinction time of uterine contraction, extended days of pregnancy, postpartum hemorrhage, neonatal birth weight and tocolysis rate were compared between two groups.ResultsAfter treatment, CRH, NO, PGE2 and IL-8 of control group were obviously higher than research group, the difference was statistically significant (t=10.826,3.839,7.534,8.075,P<0.05).The extinction time of uterine contraction in control group was obviously longer than research group, while extended days of pregnancy and neonatal birth days in research group were obviously longer than control group, the difference was statistically significant (t=4.566,7.855,3.237,P<0.05).There was no significant difference in postpartum hemorrhage between two groups (t=0.889,P>0.05).The overall efficacy of tocolysis in control group was 70.5%, while that in research group was 86.7%, which was obviously higher than the control group, the difference was statistically significant (χ2=7.801,P<0.05).ConclusionRitodrine hydrochloride can effectively control uterine contraction factor in peripheral blood and extend gestational days of patients with threatened premature labor, so as to improve tocolysis rate and birth quality.

Objective To investigate the effect of Propess on cervical collagen remodeling and cervical ripening in full-term pregnancy.Methods 94 cases of mid-term pregnant women enrolled in obstetrics and gynecology of our department from January 2016 to January 2017 were divided into two groupaccording to the random number table method.47 cases of the control group, taking oxytocin intravenous infusion;observation group of 47 cases, taking propess suppository vaginal medication.Labor time, medication to labor time, cervical Bishop score, mode of delivery, postpartum hemorrhage and neonatal situation of two groups were compared.Results Compared with the control group, the Bishop score of the cervix was increased, the total effective rate of cervical ripening was improved, the labor was shortened, the time of medication was shortened, and the delivery rate of vaginal delivery was improved(P<0.05), while the two groups were bleeding, neonatal Apgar score and the incidence of fetal distress were not statistically significant.Conclusion It can promote cervical collagen remodeling, promote cervical ripening, thereby reducing the rate of cesarean sectionwith taking propess in the vaginal.

25 year).The patients were analyzed for the clinical characteristics.Autoantibodies to glutamic acid decarboxylase 65(GAD65-Ab),insulin(I-Ab)and autoantobodies to protein tyrosine phosphatase-like proteins(IA2-Ab)were assayed.HLA-DRB1,DQA1,DQB1 alleles(HLA-DRB1*03,*04,*09,*15,DQB1*0201,*0302,*0601,DQA1*0301,*0501)were typing by PCR-sequence specific primer(PCR-SSP).Results A little higher proportion of males,a longer duration of disease; a higher BMI and WHR characterized the adult-onset patients.The adults have a higher level of triglycerides and 120 min C-peptides than adolescent.The frequency and level of IA2-Ab of the adolescents were higher than adults(47.1% vs 15.1% and 0.46 U?mL~ -1 vs 0.07 U?mL~ -1 ,respectively,P

Objective: To construct a prediction model for sleep disorders in shift workers of a chemical fiber enterprise, so as to provide the basis for early identification and prevention of sleep disorders in shift workers. Methods: Shift workers were sampled from a chemical fiber enterprise in Tongxiang City, Zhejiang Province using a cluster sampling method from August 2022 to July 2024. Demographic information, length of service and average weekly working hours were collected through questionnaire surveys. Depressive symptoms, anxiety symptoms and sleep disorders were evaluated using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Patient Health Questionnaire and Generalized Anxiety Disorder Questionnaire, respectively. The shift workers were randomly divided into a training set and a validation set at a ratio of 7∶3. Predictive factors were selected using a multivariable logistic regression model based on the training set, and a nomograph model for prediction of sleep disorders in shift workers was established. The predictive values of the model were evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and calibration curve based on the training set and validation set. Results: Totally 673 shift workers were included, with a median age of 32 (interquartile range, 12) years. There were 493 males, accounting for 73.25%. There were 471 (69.99%) workers in the training set and 202 (30.01%) workers in the validation set. There were 274 workers with sleep disorders, accounting for 40.71%. The equation for the prediction model was ln[p/(1-p)]=-8.391+1.906×average weekly working hours+1.822×depressive symptoms+1.667×anxiety symptoms. The area under the ROC curve was 0.769 (95%CI: 0.661-0.835) for the training set and 0.655 (95%CI: 0.593-0.737) for the validation set, and Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed a good fitting effect (both P>0.05). Conclusion The nomograph model constructed by average weekly working hours, depressive symptoms and anxiety symptoms can be used to predict the risk of sleep disorders in shift workers of a chemical fiber enterprise.

BACKGROUND: There are some reports about the relationship between atherosclerotic cerebral infarction and apolipoprotein E and B, but the results are still controversial. The relationship between apolipoprotein E and B and young adult atherosclerotic cerebral infarction has not been reported yet in China.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between the polymorphism of apolipoprotein E and B gene and young adults atherosclerotic cerebral infarction (ACI).DESIGN: A controlled case analysis of young adult atherosclerotic cerebral infarction patients.SETTING: Department of Neurology, Shengjing Hospital of Chinese Medical University.PARTICIPANTS: This study was conducted in the Department of Neurology, Shengjing Hospital of Chinese Medical University from January of 1998 to December of 2000. Thirty-six young adult patients with atherosclerotic cerebral infarction, including 30 males and 6 females, with the meaage of (41.6±6.54) years, and 100 healthy young adults, including 66 males and 34 females, with the mea age of (36.16±6.12) years were included in this study.METHODS: 8 Ml venous blood was collected after fasting for 12 hours to assay serum lipid and apolipoprotein. The gene polymorphism of apolipoprotein E and B were detected with PCR method. Enzymic method was used to detect total cholesterol, total triglycerides and high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C). Apolipoprotein AI.B was measured with immunoturbidimetry method and lipoprotein (a) with ELISA method.Lipids, lipoprotein and apolipoprotein of six control blood samples couldn't be measured because of hematolysis.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① The distribution characteristics of genotypic frequency of apolipoprtein E and B in the two groups. ② The relationship between gene polymorphism of aoplipoprotein E and B and the level of blood lipids, lipoprotein and apolipoprotein. ③ The correlation intensity between genotypes of apolipoprotein E and B and onset of young adult atherosclerotic infarction.RESULTS: ① In ACI group, ε3/4 counted for 36.1% and ε2/4 for 27.7%, but was 12% and 7% in control group respectively. The gene frequency of ε4 was 0.320. All these values were higher than that in control group 0.95 (P ＜ 0.05). ② The levels of TG, TC, and LP (a) in ACI group were higher than that in control group. The level of HDL-C was much lower than the control group's (P ＜ 0.05-0.01). ③ ε4 allele caused the increase of the content of TG, TC, and LP (a) so as to induce the relative risk rates of decrease of HDL-C which were 8.23, 4.85, 29.9,4.39 (P ＜ 0.01-0.001) respectively. ④ AI content of the gene frequency of ApoB XbaⅠ X+X- was (1.01±0.30) g/L in ACI group, which was lower than (1.33±0.15) g/L in X-X- subgroup (t=2.55, P ＜ 0.05). The level of ApoA I in X+X group (244.3 mg/L) was remarkably different from that (183.0 mg/L)in control group (t=4.50, P ＜ 0.01). ⑤ Three cases had both ε3 and X+X-in ACI group, 10 had both ε3 and X-X-, 2 had both ε4 and X+X-, and 19 had both ε4 and X-X-. The risk of ACI was 2.85 with the linkage of allele ε4 and allele X-X- in ACI patients (x2=1.52, P ＞ 0.05).CONCLUSION: Allele ε4 is a genetic facilitated factor of young adults ACI. Xba Ⅰ X+X- is another probable genetic symbol. The correlation between atherosclerotic cerebral infarction of young patients during the combination of apolipoprotein E and B should be researched further.

Objective To investigate value of real-time three-dimensional echocardiography timingexcursion parametric index and 17 segment volume curves index in patients with restrictive cardiomyopathy and constrictive pericardits.MethodsSeventeen patients with restrictive cardiomyopathy (proven by biopsy) ,six patients with constrictive pericardits (proven by CT or surgical),twenty subjects with normal left ventricular(LV) function were examined by Philips iE33 with X3-1 probe.Results Parameter index of Tmsv 16-SD,Tmsv 12-SD Tmsv 6-SD,Tmsv 16-Dif,Tmsv 12-Dif,Tmsv 6-Dif,Tmsv 16-SD(%) ,Tmsv 12-SD(%),Tmsv 6-SD(%),Tmsv 16-Dif(%),Tmsv 12-Dif(%),Tmsv 6-Dif(%) was significantly higher in patients with restrictive cardiomyopathy than that in subjects with normal LV function(all P ＜0.05).Average and maximum value and minimum of excursion was significantly lower in patients with restrictive cardiomyopathy than that in subjects with normal LV function (all P ＜0.005).Whereas,compare with subjects with normal LV function,the parametric indexes of timing-excursion and 17 segment volume curves were not significantly difference in patients with constrictive pericardits(all P ＞0.05).Conclusions Realtime three-dimensional echocardiography can evaluate and diagnose fastly restrictive cardiomyopathy and constrictive pericardits.

Objective To explore the effect of medical cooperation health education after conservative surgery placed Mirena treatment with uterine gland myopathy.Methods 30 patients were collected and divided into general group and cooperation group by random number table method,with each group including 15 cases.General group accepted regular health education,while cooperation group received medical cooperation health education.6 months of home visits and telephone follow-up of two groups,statistical comparisons of menstruation,menstrual days,life satisfaction,adverse symptoms and satisfaction of diseases,Mirena,nursing methods between the two groups before and after the treatment.Results Patients' satisfaction and disease knowledge,Mirena knowledge,nursing knowledge the cooperation group scored higher than the conventional group (x2=2.184-6.184,P ＜0.05 or 0.01);the number of higher anxiety level was lower than the conventional group (x2=13.258,P ＜ 0.05);after treatment,dysmenorrhea severity score,menstrual flow,menstrual days,the quality of life the cooperation group were (0.35±0.08) points,(14.20±16.54) ml,(4.21±1.14) d,(9.01±1.36) points while the conventional group were (1.37±0.34) points,(39.64±8.62) ml,(6.74±1.07) d,(7.81±1.30) points,and the difference was statistically significant (t =2.47-11.31,P ＜0.01).the number of adverse symptoms of cooperation group was lower than that of the conventional group (x2=13.594,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Compared with single health education,cooperative medical health education has more advantage after conservative surgery placed Mirena treatment uterine gland myopathy which should be promoted in clinic.

Objective To explore the difference involved in the activation of inflammation pathway and the plasma level of inflammatory factors in the subjects with different sorts of insulin sensitivity. Methods The study was carried out in 38 women, consisting of obesity (n = 22 ) and control (n = 16 ) groups according to body mass index. The insulin sensitivity was assessed by homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMAIR). Plasma concentrations of interleukin-6 (II-6) and IL-1β were determined by enzyme immunoassay. Western blot analysis was used to examine total protein expression and phosphorylation levels of IκB kinase (IKK) ,inhibitor of nuclear factor-κB ( IκB ) in peripheral blood leukcocytes. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA)was used to detect the binding activity of NFκB. Results The levels of fasting plasma insulin[62.2 ( 20.0-127. 0) pmol/L vs 19. 15 ( 14. 2-47. 8 ) pmol/L, P<0. 01], HOMA-IR[2. 32 ( 0. 76-5.49 ) vs 0.70(0.53-1.7),P<0.0l], HbA1 C[(5.42±0. 45 ) % vs ( 5.08 ±0. 38) %, P<0. 05], triglyceride[( 1.75 ±0. 68 vs 1.22 ±0. 58 )mmol/L, P<0. 05], plasma IL-6[3. 15 (0. 03-22. 2) pg/ml vs 1.26 (0. 74-6.06 ) pg/ml, P<0. 01], and IL-1 β[6. 53 ( 0. 84-36 ) pg/ml vs 3. 16( 1.48-8. 86 ) pg/ml, P<0. 01]in obesity group were significantly higher than those in control group. Compared with control group, the levels of IKKo, IKKβ expression and IκBα serine phosphorylation in obesity group were markedly increased, while the expression of IκBα was significantly reduced. Accompanied with the degradation of IκBα protein, the binding activity of NFκB in obesity group was significantly increased. Conclusions The plasma levels of IL-6 and IL-1β were significantly raised in obesity group. The activation of IKK-IκB-NFκB pathway is closely associated with the genesis and development of insulin resistance in obese subjects.
