Objective To compare the clinical efficacy and safety of esomeprazole in treatment of elderly and young patients with gastric ulcer.Methods 120 cases of elderly patients with gastric ulcer and 95 cases of young and middle-aged patients with gastric ulcer were selected this study.Two groups of patients were treated with amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium dispersible tablets 0.457 g,tinidazole tablets 0.5 g and esomeprazole magnesium enteric coated tablets 20mg orally,once daily treatment 1 week for a course of treatment,1 week after continue to every morn-ing fasting taking esomeprazole 20mg,1 times/D,treatment for 3weeks.The clinical curative effect,Hp clearance rate and incidence of adverse reactions between two groups of patients after treatment were compared.Results The total effective rate in the treatment of elderly group patients (87.50%)compared with young and middle -aged group (92.63%),there was no significant difference (χ2 =1.52,P>1.52).Elderly group of patients with helicobacter pylori clearance rate (71.67%)compared with young and middle-aged group (76.84%),there was no significant difference (χ2 =0.74,P>0.74).The incidence of adverse reactions (8.33%)of elderly group had obvious differ-ences by comparing with young and middle -aged group (2.1 1%),and the difference was statistically significant (χ2 =3.90,P<0.05).Conclusion Application of esomeprazole based triple therapy in the treatment of the elderly and young people in the gastric ulcer could heal ulcers and eradicate Hp,but young and middle -aged patients is superior to the elderly group in terms of adverse reactions.

Objective:To investigate the mechanism of lung injury after cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR) in rats. Methods: Cardiac arrest was induced by asphyxiation(succinylcholine) and ice-cold 0.5 mol/L KCl in rats and CPR was carried out 5 min after arrest. Sixteen adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly allocated into 2 groups:control group(n=8) and CPR group(n=8). The blood gas analysis,serum level of tumor necrosis factor ?(TNF-?),lung tissue wet mass/dry mass ratio(W/D),lung malondialde-hyde(MDA) content and myeloperoxidase(MPO) activities were measured 3 h after CPR. The histological appearances of the lungs were observed under light and electron microscope. Results: Compared to the control group,the lung W/D,serum TNF-?,pulmonary MDA and MPO activity increased dramatically in CPR group while PaO 2 decreased 3 h after resuscitation(P

Objective To explore the therapeutic effects of electroacupuncture on regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) in patients with post-stroke depression. Methods 21 patients with post-stroke depression were randomly divided into electroacupuncture group (n=11) and drug group (n=10). The electroacupuncture group received electroacupuncture on double Hegu (LI4) and Taichong (LR3) once a day for 8 weeks, while the drug group took fluoxetine hydrochloride dispersible tablets 20 mg a day for 8 weeks. They were evaluated with Hamilton Self-rating Scale for Depression (HAMD) before, and 2 weeks, 4 weeks and 8 weeks after treatment respectively. The rCBF were measured with single positron emission computerized tomography (SPECT) before and 8 weeks after treatment. Results The score of HAMD decreased more in the electroacupuncture group than in the drug group 2 weeks after treatment (P<0.05), and there was no significant difference between the two groups 4 and 8 weeks after treatment (P>0.05). The rCBF was significantly greater in the electroacupuncture group than in the drug group. Conclusion That electroacupuncture is effective on post-stroke depression, which may be related with the increase of the rCBF levels.

Objective To evaluate the prevalence of low bone mineral density in patients with inflammatory bowel disease(IBD) and to identify its risk factors. Methods A cross-sectional survey was carried out in IBD patients. Anthropemetric measures, biochemical markers of nutrition and bone mineral density measurement were completed for these patients as well as healthy control subjects. Results Seventy-seven Crohn's disease (CD) and 43 ulcerative colitis(UC) patients were enrolled, and 37 healthy volunteers were recruited as healthy controls(HC). The T value of CD patients, UC patients and HC was -1.72±1.20,-1.26±1.12 and-0.62±0.87 respectively and the T value of CD patients was significantly lower than that of HC (P=0.000). The prevelance of osteoporosis in CD, UC and HC was 23.3%, 14.0% and 0 respectively. The prevelance of osteoporosis in CD was higher than that in HC (P=0.003). Logistic regression analysis indicated that low BMI(BMI≤18.4 kg/m~2) was an independent risk factor for osteoporosis both in CD (OR=11.25,95% CI 3.198-39.580, P=0.000) and in UC (OR= 14. 50,95% CI 1.058-88.200, P=0.045) patients. Age, disease duration, clinical activity active index (CDAI), oral steroid therapy, immunosuppressant treatment and serum vitamin D concentration were not found to be correlated with osteoperosis in IBD patients. Conclusions Low bone mineral density is common in both CD and UC patients and low BMI is an independent risk factor for osteoporosis in IBD patients.

Objective:pH low insertion peptide (pHLIP)-variant 7 (var7)-fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) was used to explore an accurate imaging tool that targeted burn wounds to better perform burn debridement.Methods:Twelve rat models of burn wound were established and pHLIP-var7-FITC with different concentrations (0.5, 1.5 and 2.0 mg/ml) were injected from the rat tail vein for in vivo fluorescence imaging. By determining the concentration of fluorescent conjugates to the burn wound, the scope of wound injury necrosis was judged by combining pathological sections, and its residue and toxicity in important organs such as heart, liver, kidneys, and brain were detected. The Kruskal-Wallis rank sum test, Bonferroni correction method and one-way analysis of variance were used for data analysis. Results:Within 24 h, the fluorescence photons per unit area of the burn wound in the group of 0.5 mg/ml, 1.5 mg/ml and 2.0 mg/ml were 1.49(1.31, 1.65), 2.46(1.88, 2.68), 2.77 (1.94, 3.10)×10 7 p·s -1·cm -2·Sr -1, with significant differences in the overall distribution of fluorescence photons ( H=73.55, P<0.001). The fluorescence intensity was stronger in the group with higher concentration, but with no significant difference in the number of fluorescence photons between the group of 1.5 mg/ml and 2.0 mg/ml ( P=0.263, Bonferroni correction method). At 14 time points (0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 12, 24 h), there was no significant difference in the overall mean of fluorescence photons ( F=1.04, P=0.419), and the tissue with burn necrosis seen in tissue sections was highly consistent with the fluorescence imaging region. There was no obvious fluorescence residue in the heart, liver, kidney and brain sections. Conclusion:In superficial second-degree burn tissue, pHLIP-var7-FITC can accurately target and gather on the burn wound within 24 h, showing a clear boundary between burn tissue and normal tissue, which can assist clinical surgical debridement to determine the extent of injury.

Objective To elucidate the mechanism underlying eletroacupuncture's (EA's) amply-documented analgesic effect.To observe its effect on the pain threshold and on the expression of P2X4 receptor and microglia activation in the spinal cords of rats with neuropathic pain.To demonstrate whether or not interfering with A1 receptors and P2X4 receptors at the same time could enhance the analgesic effect.Methods A total of 40 SpragueDawley rats weighing 150 to 180 g were randomly divided into a sham group,a CCI group,an EA group,a 2-chloroN(6)-cyclopentyladenosine (CCPA) group and a CCPA+EA group,each of 8.Chronic constriction injury (CCI)was induced successfully in the rats of all groups except the sham group.Five days later,EA and 20 μL injections of 0.1 mm/L CCPA were applied to the rat analogues of the Zusanli (ST36) and Yanglingquan (GB34) acupoints once a day for 15 days for the rats in the appropriate groups.The mechanical withdrawal threshold (MWT) and the thermal withdrawal latency (TWL) were measured before the CCI operation and 20 days afterward.L4-L6 spinal cord tissue was then resected and the fluorescence intensity of P2X4 and OX42 receptors was detected using double label immunohistochemical staining.The correlation between the mean fluorescence intensity and the pain threshold gap was analyzed.Results The average MWT and TWL of the CCI group were significantly lower than in the other four groups.The expression of P2X4 receptor and OX42 in the spinal cord increased significantly in the CCI group compared to the other four groups.There was significant correlation between the mean fluorescence intensity of P2X4 and OX42 receptors and the gap in pain threshold,with correlation coefficients of 0.907 and 0.717 respectively.Conclusion P2X4 receptor and microglia activation might be involved in the development of neuropathic pain.CCPA and EA can inhibit the activation of microglia and reduce the activity of P2X4 receptors.The interaction between A1 receptors and P2X4 receptors can strengthen the analgesic effect of EA.

Objective:To have a better understanding of congenital leukemia by summarizing its clinical features and prognosis.Methods:This study retrospectively recruited 10 neonates with congenital leukemia treated in Beijing Children's Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2006 to December 2018. Clinical data including clinical manifestations, laboratory examinations, treatment and follow-up were described.Results:The 10 patients consisted of six boys and four girls. In all cases, symptoms presented within 11 d after birth. The admission complaints were jaundice ( n=4), polypnea ( n=3), fever ( n=2) and rash ( n=2). Physical examinations of the 10 patients showed eight with splenomegaly, seven with hepatomegaly and seven with petechia/skin rash. All patients had significantly increased white blood cell count (from 45.8×10 9/L to 553.0×10 9/L), complicated by different degrees of anemia and thrombocytopenia. By bone marrow biopsy, two cases were diagnosed as acute lymphoblastic leukemia and the other eight cases as acute myeloid leukemia. All cases refused chemotherapy on the preliminary diagnosis. Three cases lost follow-up and six died within two months after discharge requested by their parents. One baby had spontaneous remission, but relapsed two years later. Complete remission was achieved after strict management and no relapse was reported until ten years old. Conclusions:Congenital leukemia is a severe condition with high mortality. Some cases may achieve spontaneous remission, but long-term follow-up is needed.

BACKGROUND:There are many kinds of cell media with different components,which have a great influence on cell growth.Several studies in and outside China have used serum-free media containing fetal bovine serum for in vitro amplification culture,but the use of media containing human peripheral blood serum to directionally induce human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells to neural stem cells and human peripheral blood serum to promote neural stem cells to differentiate into other nerve cells,so far there are few relevant studies. OBJECTIVE:To observe the feasibility of inducing human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells cultured with human peripheral blood serum into neural stem cells. METHODS:(1)Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells were cultured in DMEM/F-12 culture medium containing 10%human peripheral blood serum by volume fraction.Flow cytometry analysis was performed at the third passage to identify surface markers and alizarin red staining was used to detect osteogenic differentiation function.(2)The third-generation human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells were induced into neural stem cells using DMEM/F-12 medium containing 0.5%N2,1.5%B27,20 ng/mL basic fibroblast growth factor,and 20 ng/mL epidermal growth factor,and their surface markers were identified.(3)Well-growing human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell-derived neural stem cells were taken to prepare a single cell suspension.They were evenly inoculated into 96-well plates and incubated with DMEM/F-12 culture medium containing 10%human peripheral blood serum for 8 days.Then,hematoxylin-eosin staining,microtubule-associated protein 2,and glial fibrillary acidic protein immunofluorescence staining were performed to detect the differentiation of neural stem cells into other neural cells. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells cultured with human peripheral blood serum grew in a spiral-like pattern and were distributed in multiple layers,with directional arrangement.The surface of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells highly expressed CD44,CD105,CD29,and CD73.Cells stained with alizarin red showed a color reaction.(2)Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells cultured with human peripheral blood serum could be induced to differentiate into neural stem cells,and the surface of neural stem cells was highly expressed with CD44,CD105,CD29,CD73,Nestin,NF-L,and GALC.(3)On day 8 of induced differentiation of neural stem cells,after staining with hematoxylin and eosin,it was found that the protruding protrusions were longer,with more branches and adjacent cells connected,presenting typical neural cell morphology.Immunofluorescence staining for microtubule-associated protein 2 and glial fibrillary acidic protein was positive.It is concluded that human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells cultured by human peripheral blood serum can be directly induced to differentiate into neural stem cells.Under the action of human peripheral blood serum,neural stem cells can differentiate into other neural cells as the culture time prolongs.

Objective To observe the influence of spinal cord injury (SCI) in hypothalamus AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) expression,and explore the mechanism of SCI-induced type 2 diabetes or insulin resistance.Methods Eighteen SD rats were randomly divided into model group,High Fat/High Sucrose/High Cholesterol Diet group and SCI group (n=6).The animals in the model group and High Fat/High Sucrose/High Cholesterol Diet group underwent a T10 laminectomy without weight-drop injury,and SCI models were induced by MASCIS Impactor method.Blood glucose and glucose tolerance tests were performed before experiment and 8 weeks after the experiment.At 8 weeks,the levels of serum inflammatory factors,tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α,interleukin (IL)-1β,and IL-6,were observed by ELISA;Western blotting was used to detect the expression of phosphorylated (p) -AMPK in the hypothalamus.Results Blood glucose levels in the rats of High Fat/High Sucrose/High Cholesterol Diet group and SCI group were significantly higher than that in the model group (P＜0.05).Blood glucose levels 15 and 60 min after SCI in rats of SCI group were significantly higher than those in the model group (P＜0.05);Blood glucose levels 15,30,60 and 120 min after SCI in rats of High Fat/High Sucrose/High Cholesterol Diet group were significantly higher than those in the model group (P＜0.05).As compared with those in the model group,the expression of p-AMPK in the hypothalamus were significantly decreased,and the TNF-α,IL-1β and IL-6 levels were statistically increased in rats of High Fat/High Sucrose/High Cholesterol Diet group and SCI group (P＜0.05).Conclusion SCI could inhibit AMPK expression in the hypothalamus,activate inflammatory signaling pathway and enhance chronic systemic inflammation,and therefore,insulin resistance is induced.
