In recent years,the incidence of allergic diseases is rising.The mild symptoms in allergic diseases are partial performance,but the severe symptoms in allergic diseases can induce anaphylactic shock and even death.With the unclear pathogenesis,there is lack of the effective treatment.Early detection and control of risk factors that cause allergic disease may be helpful in reducing the incidence of allergic disease.This review describes recent progress in the study of epidemiology, risk factors of allergic diseases, hypotheses of mechanism and the direction of future researches in risk factors of allergic diseases.

More and more studies suggest that endocrine-metabolic diseases and liver diseases influence each other. Endocrine-metabolic diseases may lead to abnormal liver function, and liver diseases are found also to cause disturbance of endocrine-metabolic system.

Objective To investigate the causes and therapeutic method for children with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome. Methods 72 patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome were treated by adenctonsillectomy, operation and precaution of postoperation complication. Results 62 patients (86.1% )were cure.8 patients(11.1% ) were better. 2 patients(2.7% ) were no change. Conclusion The children with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome caused by glandular organ and hypertrophyoftonsil, can improve the surgical results and late results.

Graves' disease is a common autoimmune disease triggered by the susceptibility genes and environmental factors.Among the 9 risk genes related to Graves' disease,SCGB3A2 is the first Graves' disease-predisposing gene identified by our group using tagSNPs,strategy of candidate genes,and positional clones.The association between SCGB3A2 and Graves' disease has been confirmed by two independent cohorts from UK and Russia.So far,the geneticists on Graves' disease regard SCGB3A2 as a validated susceptibility gene of that disease.

Objective To observe the effect of carvedilol and motoprolol on the weight of cardiac muscle in patients with hypertensive heart disease.Methods One hundred patients with hypertensive heart disease were divided into two groups by random number and treated with carvedilol(n =54) and motoprolol(n =46) respectively for 12 months.Data were recorded (left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (LVEDD),left ventricular end-systolic dimension (LVESD),left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF),interventricular septal thickness (IVST),and left ventricular posterior wall thickness (LVPWT)) before and after the treatment.Left ventricular muscle mass(LVW),left ventricular mass index(LVWI) were calculated.Results After treatment,both groups improved with declined LVEDD (motoprolol group:(43.60 ± 4.43) mm vs.(46.70 ± 3.21) mm,t =18.143,P ＜ 0.01 ; carvedilol group:(42.50 ± 2.56) mm vs.(46.5 ± 3.18) mm,t =18.232,P ＜ 0.01),thinner IVST (motoprolol group:(9.68 ± 1.65) mm vs.(12.01 ± 1.56) mm,t =12.785,P ＜ 0.01 ; carvedilol group:(9.05 ± 1.04) mm vs.(11.59 ± 1.54) mm,t =7.865,P ＜ 0.01),and increased LVEF (motoprolol group:(52.89 ± 8.78)％ vs.(50.23 ± 7.88)％; carvedilol group:(54.65 ± 8.87％)％ vs.(50.22 ±7.89)％).In the carvedilol treatment group,LVMI significantly (t =4.987,P ＜ 0.01) declined from (133.75 ±25.89) g/m2 to (109.25 ± 22.53) g/m2.In the motoprolol treatment group,LVMI declined from (134.76 ± 25.87) g/m2 to (119.78 ± 23.65.53) g/m2 (t =5.689,P ＜ 0.01).After the treatment,each index of carvedilol group improved significantly compared with metoprolol group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Both medications are able to reduce the weight of cardiac muscle of patients with hypertensive heart disease,and carvedilol is better than motoprolol.

A migraine is a common essential headache in clinical practice. Studies in recent years have found that cortical spreading depression (CSD) may be one of the important mechanisms for the cause of migraine. This article reviews the relationship between SCD and neurobiological mechanism of migraine,particular expounding the significance in the gene mutations of familial hemiplegic migraine, CSD in migraine pathophysiological mechanisms and their prophylactic treatment.

Cerebral salt wasting syndrome (CSWS) is a common cause of refractory hyponatremia. Early diagnosis and treatment of CSWS can greatly improve the patient′s condition and improve the prognosis. Clinically by supplying sodium hydrate, most patients can resume normal serum sodium level, and get remission. But a few patients with low serum sodium, high urine sodium and low blood volume can not improve and even worse. Fludrocortisone and adrenal cortical hormone can rapidly and effectively reduce the urinary sodium level and urine volume, correct hyponatremia and low blood volume and improve the prognosis in such patients.

Objective To observe the effect of heat-producing needling (Shao Shan Huo) and cool-inducing needling (Tou Tian Liang) on the gait cycle after operation for gluteus contracture. Method Sixty-six patients after operation for gluteus contracture were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 33 in each group. The control group was intervened by rehabilitation, while the treatment group was by acupuncture in addition to the rehabilitation training. The topical points Zhibian (BL 54), Huantiao (GB 30), and Juliao (GB 29) were treated with reducing cool-inducing needling technique; Biguan (ST 31), Futu (ST 32), Zusanli (ST 36), Fenglong (ST 40), Xuehai (SP 10), Diji (SP 8), and Yanglingquan (GB 34) were treated with reinforcing heat-producing needling technique. The motor time parameters were observed before and after intervention.Result After intervention, the supporting phase of the affected side, supporting phase of the healthy side, gait cycle, swinging phase of the affected side, swinging phase of the healthy side, and bilateral supporting phase of the treatment group were significantly different from that of the control group (P<0.05).Conclusion Heat-producing and cool-inducing needling techniques can effectively shorten the gait cycle after operation for gluteus contracture, and can improve the walk function.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of long-pulsed 1064nm laser combined with amorolfine hydrochloride in the treatment of patients with onychomycosis. Methods:Totally 106 cases of patients with onychomycosis were randomly divided into the observation group (n=53) and the control group(n=53) according to the random number table. The control group was given 5%amorolfine hydrochloride liniment, while the observation group was treated with long-pulsed 1064nm laser additionally. The course of treatment was 6 months. The clinical efficacy, length of deck in ward areas, length of deck in health zone, clearance of mycology and adverse reactions were compared between the groups. Results:The total effective rate of the observation group(90. 57%) was signifi-cantly higher than that of the control group(75. 47%, P<0. 05). After the treatment, the length of deck in ward areas in both groups were significantly decreased, while the length of deck in health zone were significantly increased (P<0. 05). The length of deck in ward areas in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group, while the length of deck in health zone was significantly higher than that in the control group(P<0. 05). The clearance rate of mycology in the observation group (86. 79%) was significantly higher than that in the control group (67. 92%, P<0. 05). There were no serious adverse reactions during the treatment course. Conclusion:Long-pulsed 1064nm laser combined with 5% amorolfine hydrochloride liniment in the treatment of patients with onychomycosis has remarkable, safe and reliable clinical effects, which shows important study value.
