Objective To investigate the epidemiology and clinical features of epidemic cerebrospinal meningitis of children in Shanghai area in the last 2.5 years. Methods A retrospective study was conducted in 27 hospitalized patients with epidemic cerebrospinal meningitis by analyzing the clinical manifestation,epidemiology and laboratory test fingdings from Jan.2006 to Jun.2008.Statistical analysis of the clinical manifestations of cases in serogroup A,B and C was performed according to Neisseria meningitidis infection. Results There were sporadic cases of children with epidemic cerebrospinal meningitis in Shanghai area in the last 2.5 years.The seasonal distribution illustrated the peak occurrence from Feb.to Apr.Among all these cases,92.6% were floating children.Common types(74.1%) were the predominant clinical manifestations and the others were fulminate types(25.9%).Four cases in each of serogroup A and B,and 8 cases of serogroup C were identified by serotyping on 14 Neisseria meningitidis strains and genotyping on the other 2 cases′ cerebrospinal fluid specimens.All the patients in serogroup A with meningococcal diseases were not vaccinated before and 25.0% of them belonged to fulminate types.Half of the cases had petechia on the skin and the prevalence of skin necrosis was 25.0% and 50% had complications of nervous system.No fulminate type was present in cases of serogroup B meningococcal disease and only 1 case had slight petechia on the skin.However,intensive convulsions occurred in 75.0% of the patients,and all of them had complication of nervous system,with a few had sequela.Among the patients in serogroup C meningococcal disease,62.5% patients were vaccinated with serogroup A Neisseria meningitidis.In serogroup C,Neisseria meningitidis infection was found in each age group,with petechia on skin,skin necrosis,immunity correlation fever and complications of nervous system in 87.5%,50.0%,75.0% and 12.5% of the patients,respectively. Conclusions 1.Epidemic cerebrospinal meningitis occurred sporadically in children in Shanghai area,the majority of patients were floating populations.2.Clinical manifestation was typical in patients of serogroup A meningococcal disease.Subdural effusion or ventricalitis was more common in patients of serogroup B meningococcal disease.In serogroup C,Neisseria meningitidis was the most prevalent serotype leading to epidemic cerebrospinal meningitis.More cases were found in patients infected with serogroup C,Neisseria meningitidis with severe shock and immunity correlation fever compared with the other groups.Prophylactic vaccination of serogroup C polyvalent meningococcal organism should be recommended.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical application value of using needle electrode in transurethral plasmakinetic resection of bladder tumor around ureteral orifice. METHODS: Retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of 16 cases who had bladder tumors around ureteral orifice and underwent transurethral resection using plasmakinetic needle electrode in Department of Urology, Peking University International Hospital from June 2015 to December 2019. There were nine cases with the tumor of one to two centimeters from the ureteral orifice. The rest of the seven cases had tumor that was within one centimeter from the ureteral orifice, including two cases whose ureteral orifice was invaded by the tumor. All the patients studied were diagnosed before surgery and contraindications were excluded. The plasmakinetic needle electrode was used to treat the tumor with en bloc resection, and all the excised tissue was sent for pathological examination. Intravesical chemotherapy and postoperative follow-ups were performed. Statistical analysis was performed on the operation time, the incidence of obturator nerve reflex, the peri-operative bleeding, the parameters of indwelling ureteral catheter or double-J stent, the incidence of postoperative hydronephrosis, the clinical stage of tumor, and the recurrence rate. RESULTS: The operation was successfully completed for all the sixteen cases. The operation time was 16 to 57 minutes, with an average of (32.6±11.8) minutes. No obvious obturator nerve reflex and perioperative bleeding occurred in all the patients. Ureteral catheters were indwelled prior to the operation of tumor resection in seven cases. Four of the seven cases had the ureteral catheters remained while the rest three were replaced by double-J stent after surgery. Postoperative pathological analysis showed that all the tumors were urothelial carcinoma, including 9 cases of low grade and 7 cases of high grade. Pathological staging: 10 cases were in Ta stage, 5 cases in T1 stage, and 1 case in T2a stage. All tumor bases and lateral margins were negative. All the patients received 3-56 months, with an average of (26.0±18.1) months of follow-up. There was no case of upper urinary tract hydronephrosis or tumor recurrence. CONCLUSION The transurethral plasmakinetic resection of bladder tumor using needle electrode can realize en bloc tumor resection without obturator nerve reflex and reduce the risk of ureteral orifice injury. It is a safe and effective surgical method for treating bladder tumors around the ureteral orifice.

0.05). TNF-? in group EK and EKM was lower than that in group E (P0.05). Conclusions Ketamine can inhibit the release of TNF-? caused by LPS and increase myocardial cAMP level, protecting myocardium from sepsis. This may be one of the anti-septic shock mechanisms of ketamine. Combination of midazolam with ketamine does not affect the anti-septic shock property of ketamine.

Objective This experiment was designed to determine the effect of haloperidol on HSP70 induced by ketamine, and to explore the possibility of using haloperidol to prevent or treat the brain injury caused by ketamine.Methods 48 rats were divided into 8 groups, In group 1-3 different doses of haloperidol (1.0,5.0,10.0 mg/kg)were given 1h before the administration of ketamine. There were two control groups. In control group 1 normal saline was given twice with 1h interval between the two injections. In control group 2 ketamine 80.0 mg/kg was given 1h after the administration of normal saline.The volume of each injection was 3ml and intraabdominal injection was used as the route of administration.HSP70 mono-clone antibody immunocytochemistry was used to detect HSP70 expression in rat hippocampus, and MIAS-2000 photography analytic software to analyze HSP70 expression in hippocampus of the rat brain.Results Ketamine induced HSP70 expression in the rat brain. Pretreatment with haloperidol inhibited HSP70 expression induced by ketamine, and the inhibition was dose-dependent, but haloperidol given after the administration of ketamine could not decrease HSP70 expression.Conclusions Ketamine injures neurons of rat hippocampus and induces the expression of HSP70 and haloperidol pretreatment can prevent neuronal injury caused by ketamine, but haloperidol can not antagonize the injury caused by ketamine.

Objective To evaluate the myocardial protection afforded by ketamine midazolam in its septic shock and its possible mechanism by studying the impact of ketamine midazolam on myocardial HSP 70 expression in LPS induced septic shock in rats Methods 112 healthy adults SD rats of both sexes, weighing 180 205g were randomly assigned to one of following groups:(Ⅰ)control group received normal saline ip (group NS); (Ⅱ) endotoxin group received LPS 20mg?kg -1 ip(group E); (Ⅲ) endotoxin midazolam group received midazolam 0 5mg?kg -1 20 min before LPS (group EM); (Ⅳ) endotoxin ketamine group received ketmine 80mg?kg -1 20 min before LPS (group EK); endotoxin ketamine midazolam group received ketmine 80mg?kg 1 and midazolam 0 5mg?kg -1 20 min before LPS (group EKM) One hour later half of the initial dose of ketamine and/or midazolam was given to reinforce their effect Heart was harvested 2h after LPS or when the rats died of LPS induced septic shock(pupil did not respond to light) for determination of HSP 70 expression using monoclone antibody immunocytochemistry The survival time of every rat was recorded Results The expression HSP 70 was higher in group E than that in group NS and was lower than that in group EK and EKM The survival rate of group EK and EKM was higher than that of group E and EM (P0 05) Conclusions Ketamine can enhance myocardial HSP 70 expression in septic shock This may be one of the mechanisms of its myocardial protection Joint use of ketamine midazolam dose not affect the myocardial protective effect of ketamine

Abstract Objective: To study the relationshiop between the HBV pre-c mutant and the clinical the, the host immunity. Methods: Mu-tation specific PCR(msPCR) was employed for detecting pre-c mutant in 92 cases with HBV-DNA positive;T subpopulations were determinedby APAAP immune-bridge assay; the cytokines (TNF?、 sIL-2R ) levels by ELISA. Results: 57 cases had Pre-c mutant, the rate was ahaut 62 %;pre-c mutant existed popularly in different e systems status, mainly in anti-HBe(+) serum. The reat increased with the deterioration of liverfunction, and was highest in fulminant hepatitis, the percentage of CD4 T lymphocyte and the ratio of CD4/CD8 were aignificantly lower in mu-tational group than in wild group,but CD8 T lymphocyte was obviously higher, the quantity of sera TNF? and sIL-2R in mutational group wereobviously higher than in wild group, both groups were obviously higher than control group. Conclusion:PreC 1896 mutant existed popularly inpatients with HBV infection. There were more serious disturbance in host immunity in mutant group. The mutant may be associated with the pre-ssare of host immune system.The mutant type virus could provoke host immunity resulting in severe liver damage.
