Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy of acupuncture combined with tuina in treating patients with cervical vertigo. ＜br> Methods: According to the principle of randomization, 258 cases with cervical vertigo who met the inclusion criteria for the study were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, with 129 cases in each. The patients in the observation group received acupuncture combined with tuina therapy, while those in the control group were just treated by the same acupuncture therapy as in the observation group. After 10-day continuous treatments, the clinical efficacies of the two groups were analyzed and compared. ＜br> Results: The total effective rate of the observation group was 100%, versus 86.0% of the control group, and the difference was significant (P＜0.05). After treatment, cervical range of motion (ROM) scores in both groups were statistically significantly different from those before treatment (allP＜0.05); in addition, there was a statistically significant difference in inter-group comparison of ROM score (P＜0.05). ＜br> Conclusion: Compared with simple acupuncture treatment, acupuncture combined with tuina therapy has a better effect in improving the ROM of cervical vertigo patients, with higher clinical efficacy.

Objective To explore and compare the clinical efficacy of levetiracetam tablets and compound sodium valproate sustained release tablets in the treatment of children and adolescents with epilepsy.Methods From April 2017 to April 2018,80 children and adolescents with epilepsy treated in Chaonan Minsheng Hospital of Shantou were selected as study objects,and they were randomly divided into two groups by drawing lots,with 40 cases in each group.The observation group was given levetiracetam tablets,and the control group was treated with valproate.The improvement of EEG after therapy,the total effective rate,and the incidence of adverse reactions were observed and evaluated.Results The EEG improvement rates after treatment for 6 months in the observation group and control group were 41.17％,45.71％,respectively,the difference was not statistically significant(x2 =0.508,P ＞0.05).The EEG improvement rates after treatment for 9 months in the observation group and control group were 70.58％,74.28％,respectively,the difference was not statistically significant (x2 =0.225,P ＞ 0.05).The total effective rate in the observation group was 92.50％,which was 95.00％ in the control group,the difference was not statistically significant between the two groups (x2 =0.354,P ＞ 0.05).However,the incidence rate of adverse reactions of the observation group(22.50％) was significantly lower than that of the control group(45.00％)(x2 =6.864,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Both levetiracetam tablets and compound sodium valproate sustained release tablets have appreciable efficacy and safety in the treatment of epilepsy in children and adolescents,but levetiracetam therapy has less adverse reactions,which deserves further promotion in monotherapy of epilepsy in children and adolescents.

Objective To study the effects and security of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells transPlantation (UC-MSCs) for Patients with refractory systemic luPus erythematosus(SLE). Methods Forty Patients with refractory SLE were divided into two grouPs at random.All of Patients were treated for glucocorticoid and CTX, then Patients of the 2 grouP were transPlanted for UC-MSCs.All of Patients were observed before and 2 weeks after treatment,1 month,2 months,3 months,6 months,9 months and 12 months of clinical manifestations and laboratory Parameters . Results 2 weeks after treatment, 60%of the 1 grouP were SLEDAI<10 scores, and the 2 grouPs were 90%. There was statistically significant difference between the two grouPs (χ2=7.619, P=0.006). 1 year after treatment, PLT,ALB and C3 of the 2 grouPs were more than the 1 grouPs(P<0.05). SLEDAI,U-Pro,ESR and Hs-CRP of the 1 grouPs were more than the 2 grouPs(P<0.05). WBC,Cr and C4 of the two grouPs had not statistically significant difference(P﹥0.05). The recurrence rate of the 1 grouPs was 45%. Of the 2 grouPs was 15%.There was statistically significant difference between the two grouPs (χ2=4.286, P=0.038). Conclusion It is effective and safe for refractory SLE to transPlant UC-MSCs after using glucocorticoid and CTX. Further observation is required to evaluate long term efficacy and adverse reaction of UC-MSCs.

OBJECTIVE The objective of this study is to discuss when to dissect the lymph nodes behind the right recurrent laryngeal nerve (LN-prRLN) from the standpoint of the right cervical level Ⅵ-1 (superficial layer to the recurrent laryngeal nerve) lymph nodes in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) patients.METHODS The clinical data of 306 bilateral or right PTC patients from the Hangzhou First People's Hospital who underwent dissection of level Ⅵ-1 lymph nodes and LN-prRLN between March 2014 and September 2015 were analyzed. We measured the number of level Ⅵ-1 metastatic lymph nodes and size of level Ⅵ-1 lymph nodes metastasis loci to predict the metastasis of LN-prRLN.RESULTS The number of level Ⅵ-1 metastatic lymph nodes and size of level Ⅵ-1 lymph nodes metastasis loci were risk factors of LN-prRLN metastasis(P<0.05). When the number of the level Ⅵ-1 metastatic lymph nodes was greater than 1.5, the AUC was 0.813 (the sensitivity was 78.43%, the specificity was 76.65%). The ROC showed that when the size of level Ⅵ-1 lymph nodes metastasis loci were more than 0.45 cm, the AUC was 0.726 (sensitivity was 90.20%, specificity was 48.90%).CONCLUSION In bilateral or right PTC patients with metastasis of level Ⅵ-1 lymph nodes, especially when the number of level Ⅵ-1 metastatic lymph nodes was greater than 2cm and the metastasis loci were more than 0.45 cm, we should dissect the LN-prRLN.

Objective To identify the protein interacting with hepatitis E virus(HEV) recombi-nant capsomeric particles(P239). Methods Protein interacting with HEV was analyzed by the pull-down, MALDI-TOF-MS, co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) and CONFOCAL. Results A protein interacting with HEV recombinant particle (P239) was identified as HSP90 by MALDI-TOF-MS. The interaction between HSP90 and P239 was further confirmed by Co-IP. The protein level and localization of HSP90 and P239 in HepG2 were detected. The total quantity of HSP90 didn't change, and the movement of HSP90 from plasma membrane to perinuclei region with P239 was observed. Conclusion HSP90 may play an important role in the trafficking of P239. It suggests that HSP90 participate in the transportation of HEV after infection, which may contribute to the prevention and control of the disease.

OBJECTIVETo study genetic mutations and clinical features of a pedigree affected with MYH9-related disorders from Guangxi.

METHODSBlood platelets were counted with a hemocytometer. Blood smear was carried out to detect the inclusion body in peripheral blood neutrophils. DNA and mRNA samples were extracted from blood samples from the members of the pedigree. Fragments of the MYH9 gene were amplified with PCR and directly sequenced.

RESULTSThe affected individuals presented with a triad of giant platelets, decreased platelet count and inclusion bodies in the neutrophils with variable expressivity. A heterozygous deletional mutation (c.5803delG) in exon 41 of the MYH9 gene was found in all of the 8 affected individuals, which led to a frame-shift and change of 26 amino acids at the C-end of the tail domain of nonmuscle myosin heavy chain IIA (NMMHC-IIA) (p.Ala1935Profs*12). The same mutation was not found among healthy members of the pedigree.

CONCLUSIONThe c.5803delG mutation probably underlies the MYH9-related disorders in this pedigree. The mutation has altered the C-end of the tail domain of the NMMHC-IIA protein, resulting in mild clinical symptoms in the affected individuals.

Objective:To evaluate systematically the association between the c. 415>C polymorphism of NUDT15 gene and the toxicity of 6-mercaptopurine(6-MP)in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia(ALL).Methods:The literatures in domestic and foreign databases were retrieved: PubMed, EmBase, Cochrane Library, CNKI, CBM, VIP Chinese Sci-tech Journal Database, and Wanfang Database.The language was limited to Chinese or English.A case-control study or cohort study of 6-MP treatment in pediatric ALL related to the toxicity of the NUDT15 gene c. 415>C polymorphism was included.The time of search was set from the establishment of the database to October 1st, 2020.Two researchers screened the literature independently, extracted data from the literature that met the inclusion criteria, and evaluated the quality of the included studies.The association between locus polymorphism and toxicity during 6-MP chemotherapy was analyzed by Meta analysis with Rev Man 5.3 and Stata 12.0 software.Results:Nine studies were finally included, eight of which were cohort studies and one was a case-control study, with a total of 1 068 patients.The results showed that under the five genetic models, the mutation at c. 415>C of NUDT15 gene was significantly associated with the risk of leukopenia and neutropenia( P<0.01), while hepatotoxicity was with no significant association between the occurrence risk of damage( P>0.05). Conclusion:The mutation at c. 415>C of NUDT15 gene significantly increased the incidence of leukopenia and neutropenia during 6-MP chemotherapy, while there was no significant effect on the occurrence of hepatotoxicity.

Objective To investigate the value of multi?arterial phase differential sub?sampling with cartesian ordering (DISCO) technique in the evaluation of hepatic vascular anatomy with gadolinium?ethoxybenzyl?diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (Gd?EOB?DTPA). Methods Forty?eight patients with suspected hepatic malignancy were prospectively enrolled and underwent both of Gd?EOB?DTPA enhanced DISCO MRI and CTA within two weeks. The hepatic arterial anatomy of two examination methods were evaluated by four?point scoring method. The arterial scores between DISCO and CTA images were compared by Wilcoxon test. The difference among multiple arterial scores of DISCO and CTA were compared by Kruskal?Wallis H test respectively. Results There was no difference of arterial scores in celiac artery, common hepatic artery, proper hepatic artery, left hepatic artery, right hepatic artery, first branch of right hepatic artery, splenic artery, left gastric artery and gastroduodenal artery between DISCO and CTA (P>0.05), but the arterial score of first branch of left hepatic artery [2 (2,2)] was lower than that of CTA [2 (2,3)] (Z=-3.138,P=0.002). In the multiple comparison among different arteries, there were differences between PHA and LAH (P<0.05), B?LHA and B?RHA (P<0.05) in DISCO, but no difference was found in CTA (P>0.05). Conclusion The DISCO sequence with Gd?EOB?DTPA enhancement MRI can supply comparable image quality to CTA in hepatic artery and its main branches display, which has no ionizing radiation and can also provide more diagnostic information for clinic.
