Objective To study the immune function of the subpopulation of T helper lymphocyte(Th), including Th1 and Th2 cells in myasthenic thymus and peripheral blood (PB).Methods Enzyme-linked immunospot (ELISPOT) method is adopted to detect the acetylcholine receptor (AChR)-reactive interleukin-2(IL-2)-, interleukin-4 (IL-4)-, interleukin-10 (IL-10)-, interferon-gamma(IFN-?)-secreting cell numbers in thymus and peripheral blood (PB). Results The AChR-reactive IL-2-,IL-4-,IL-10-, IFN-?-secreting cell numbers were increased in thymus as well as the AChR-reactive IL-10-, IFN-?-secreting cell numbers in PB. There is a positive correlation between thymus and PB in MG for the AChR-reactive IL-4-, IL-10-secreting cell numbers. After treatment, the AChR-reactive IL-2-,IL-4-, IFN-?-secreting cell numbers were decreased in PB, while there were 1 case and 2 cases showing a decrease and an increase in AChR-reactive IL-10-secreting cell number, respectively.Conclusions The immune dysfunction of the Th1 and Th2 subpopulation existed in the thymus and PB of MG, and the AChR-reactive IL-4-, IL-10-secreting cell numbers might be served as parameters to evaluate the degree of the immune dysfunction in the MG thymus. The role of the IL-10 in pathogenesis of MG needs further study.

Objective To analyze the factors which influence the treatment compliance of hypertensive patients in health management. Methods Data of 6 325 hypertensive patients who received physical examination in our department were collected; 4 132 male cases and 2 193 female were included, their ages ranged from 28 to 84 years old;the average age was 61.2 ± 5.8 years. The patients of the health intervention group were randomly divided into 3 groups (group 1, group 2 and group 3). They were provided with regular health management (including weight management, catering management, sports management, medication management and monitoring of blood pressure), respectively, given different frequency of telephone follow-up (1 time per 2 months, 1 time per month, and 1 time per month), evaluating treatment compliance. All the results were analyzed and compared respectively according to the level of education, age and mental status. Data of 1 892 hypertensive patients who received outpatient services were enrolled as the control group. Among them, 4 132 were male and 2 193 were female, aged 28-84 years old, average (61.2 ± 5.8) years old. They received the traditional outpatient follow-up (outpatient service review and health education), their treatment compliance, timely correcting unhealthy lifestyle and medication method and self-testing blood pressure were evaluated. ANOVA and chi square test were used to analyze the treatment compliances and blood pressure control rates of the two groups. Result Compared with the control group, health intervention for hypertension patients could significantly improve the treatment compliance and blood pressure control rate(64.8%vs. 41.3%, 56.7%vs. 29.6%;χ2=2.827,1.382;P=0.032,0.007). Comparing the results of telephone follow-up frequency, the treatment compliance and blood pressure control rate of the 3 intervention groups were higher than those of the two other groups(77.3%vs. 65.4%, 51.7%,χ2=3.414,P=0.041;69.6% vs. 57.3%, 43.2%,χ2=2.763,P=0.028). The treatment compliance of patients with high education level was significantly higher than that of patients with low education level(68.7% vs. 59.1%, 46.4%,χ2=3.257,P=0.037;60.1%vs. 47.2%,32.8%,χ2=1.234,P=0.009). And the treatment compliance of patients with good mental state was significantly higher than that of patients with anxiety(Intervention group1:64.3%vs. 55.1%,41.9%,31.0%,χ2=2.257, P=0.016;59.4%vs.46.1%,20.9%,21.8%,χ2=3.34 5 P=0.021;Intervention group2:75.5%vs. 64.3%,51.8%,41.2%,χ2=2.932, P=0.030;68.3%vs.57.1%,39.2%, 32.1%,χ2=2.382, P=0.032;Intervention group3:86.5% vs.73.2%,62.6%,52.4%,χ2=2.435, P=0.026;75.2% vs. 68.0%,51.7%,43.3%,χ2=3.251, P=0.036). Conclusion More frequently follow-up can improve the treatment compliance and control rate of blood pressure in hypertensive patients;education, age and psychological condition are factors influencing treatment compliance in hypertensive patients.

Objective:To analyze and summarize the clinical features of pyogenic liver abscess (PLA) patients treated in 10 years, so as to provide evidence to improve current diagnosis and corresponding treatment strategies of PLA.Methods:The clinical symptoms, signs, laboratory and imaging findings, etiology and different treatments as well as corresponding efficacy and prognosis of PLA patients treated in Xiangya Hospital of Central South University during January 2010 to December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed.The chi-square was used to evaluate the differences of the categorical variables.Results:A total of 528 PLA cases were included in this study.Diabetes mellitus (46.8%, 247/528), biliary tract diseases (34.7%, 183/528) and previous hepatobiliary surgery history (19.7%, 104/528) were three most common risk factors leading to PLA. Fever (80.9%, 427/528), loss of appetite (53.6%, 283/528) and abdominal pain (51.9%, 274/528) were most common clinical manifestations. The accuracies of ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were 95.5%(472/494), 97.0%(384/396), and 96.8%(92/95), respectively. The positive rate of pus culture (70.9%, 168/237) was higher than that of blood culture (20.0%, 42/210), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=115.746, P<0.01). The top three most common bacteria were Klebsiella pneumoniae (122 strains), Escherichia coli (29 strains) and Enterococcus faecium (10 strains). The drug resistance rate of Klebsiella pneumoniae to ampicillin was as high as 97.4%(112/115). The treatment programs included 200 cases of sole antibiotic treatments. Based on the antibiotic treatment, imaging guided percutaneous puncture therapy was the most commonly used treatment (45.6%, 241/528), included imaging guided percutaneous puncture and drainage (29.0%, 153/528) and imaging guided percutaneous catheterization (16.7%, 88/528). The surgical treatments included surgical catheter drainage (5.5%, 29/528) and surgical hepatectomy(11.0%, 58/528). The total number of cured cases was 495, and the cure rate was 93.8%. Conclusions:The common clinical manifestations of PLA are fever, loss of appetite, abdominal pain. Ultrasound is a routine and effective method to detect liver abscess. Klebsiella pneumoniae is the most common pathogen. Imaging guided percutaneous puncture is the most common treatment.
