Objective To study the curative effect of endoscopic dilatation in children with benign esophageal stricture. Methods 98 patients with benign esophageal stenosis from June 2013 to June 2016 were selected as the subjects of group A, group B and group C, 11 patients in group A were reflux esophageal stenosis, 43 children in group B were congenital esophageal atresia and in group C were 44 patients with chemical burn esophageal stricture. Then compare the three groups of children before the expansion of stenosis before the situation, the number of expansion and complications occurred. Results There was no significant difference in the average diameter of stenosis among the three groups (P > 0.05). The average length of the children in group C was higher than that in group A and group B, and group B was higher than group A, the difference was statistically significant (P > 0.05). The average number of expansion in group C was higher than that in group A and group B, and group B was higher than that in group A and group B higher than group A, the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The incidence of complications in group C was higher than that in group A and B. The difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of complications between group A and group B (P > 0.05). Conclusion Endoscopic dilatation has a good clinical effect on children with benign esophageal stricture, but children with chemical burn esophageal stricture need to be expanded more often, while the complications are higher and the treatment is more difficult.

An immunogenic peptide sequence of B cell dominant epitope of human Toll like receptor 4 (TLR4) was selected basing on predication of B cell epitope of TLR4.bALB/c mice were immunized with synthetic peptide of TLR 4 and one clone (B4) of hybridoma cells was picked out by ELISA and limited dilution. High titer McAb prepasations against TLR 4 were obtained from ascites fluid of BALB/c mice infravenously inoculated with the McAb inducing hybridoma cells.The titer of ascites fluid was 1∶ 100 000 .The subclass of the McAb was IgG2,k.The specificity of McAb was identified. by indirect ELISA,and a single strong blot was shown in molecular weights of 90 Kd.using Western blot analysis.

Schistosomiasis is a neglected tropical disease which is socioeconomically devastating and a significant cause of morbidity in endemic countries or regions. Some countries and regions have brought down the prevalence of schistosomiasis through positive prevention and control programs. However in the past few years with the social and economic development and globalization re?emergence and spread of schistosomiasis led to a growing concern that new endemic areas may occur. This article analyzes the epidemiological situation and the strategies to control schistosomiasis in China and African countries.

Objective To investigate the temporal and spatial distribution of Schistosoma infection of population and its risk factors in Eastern Dongting Lake area in 2012 and 2014,so as to provide the reference for formulating effective intervention mea-sures. Methods Junshan District was selected as a study field in Eastern Dongting Lake area. The method of spatial autocorre-lation analysis was applied to analyze the change of spatial distribution of Schistosoma infection in Junshan District in 2012 and 2014. The spatial regression model was fitted to detect the risk factors for human infection. Results The livestock infection rate in 2013 was lower than that in 2011. The average infection rate of schistosome was reduced to 0.55%in 2014. The spatial auto-correlation existed on the distribution of schistosomiasis in Junshan District in both 2012 and 2014 and 4 high incidence villages were identified. The results of the spatial error model showed that the prevalence of human infection was positively correlated with the infection rate of the livestock and the area of the susceptible environment in 2012. The spatial lag model showed that the prevalence of human schistosomiasis was positively correlated with the area of the susceptible environment ,but not with the in-fection rate of livestock. Conclusion The measures involving grazing prohibition and phasing out cattle and sheep are remark-ably effective and should continue on the basis of the current spatial distribution of schistosomiasis in this area.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of intra-arterial thrombolysis with stenting for acute cerebral infarction. Methods Using a prospective case-control design, 24 patients with acute cerebral infarction who remained angiostegnosis ( ＞ 50%) after intra-arterial thrombolysis were randomly divided into stent treatment group and drug treatment group. They were treated with stenting + drug treatment and conventional drug treatment. The rates of vascular complete revascularization and residual stenosis, and the modified Rankin scale scores at 3 months in both groups were evaluated. Results The rate of complete revascularization in the stent treatment group was significantly higher than that in the drug treatment group (54. 5% vs.0%,χ2 =6.382, P ＜0. 001), and the rate of residual stenosis was significantly lower than that in the drug treatment group ([4.5 ±5.2]% vs. [82. 5 ±10. 5]%, t =7.464, P＜0.001). The rate of favorable clinical outcome in the stent treatment group was significantly higher than that in the drug treatment group (100% vs. 76. 9%,χ2 = 14. 263, P = 0.038). Conclusion The efficacy of intra-arterial thrombolysis with stenting in the treatment of acute cerebral infarction is superior to that in the drug treatment group, and it is safer.

Objective To observe the dynamic changes of serum inflammatory factors after vertebral artery stenting and to investigate its clinical significance. Methods A total of 48 patients treated with vertebral artery stenting were included, and 48 patients only received cerebral angiography were used as a control group. The levels of soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and tumor-necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were detected before procedure (angiography), at 24 h, 48 h, 3 d, and 1 and 3 weeks after procedure (angiography). Results The serum levels of hs-CRP (4. 85 ± 0. 53 mg/L vs. 2. 57 ±0. 36 mg/L,P＜0. 05), TNF-α (2.42 ±0. 34 μg/L vs. 1. 08 ±0. 37 μg/L,P ＜0. 05) and sICAM-1 (449.43 ± 47. 16 μg/L vs. 269. 15 ± 37. 46 μg/L, P ＜ 0. 05) at 24 hours after procedure in the stenting group were significantly elevated compared with those before procedure. The Hs-CRP level (6.24 ± 0.59 mg/L) reached the peak at 48 hours after procedure. At week 3 (2. 51 ±0.29 mg/L), it returned to the level before procedure (2. 57 ±0. 36 mg/L); TNF-α level reached the peak at day 3 (2.30 ± 0.25 μg/L), and it remained higher level at week 3 (1. 89 ±0. 13 μg/L); the sICAM-1 level continued to rise at week 3 (296. 95 ± 59. 72 μg/L). The serum hs-CRP, TNF-α and sICAM-1 levels at 24 hours after procedure in the stenting group were significantly higher than those (3. 25 ±0.40 mg/L、J. 18 ±0. 19 μg/L and 336. 57 ± 50. 18μg/L) in the control group (all P＜0.05). Conclusions The serum hs-CRP, TNF-α, sICAM-1 levels were significantly elevated after vertebral artery stenting. It was suggested that the stenting caused a longer duration of inflammatory response.
