1.The immunological and clinical significance of IgM in primary biliary cirrhosis
Chinese Journal of Laboratory Medicine 2013;(3):201-205
Primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) is a slowly progressive autoimmune disease of the liver.Studies on the pathphysiology of this disease have demonstrated the immune-mediated destruction of the intrahepatic bile ducts and portal infammation seem to be the result of an intense autoimmune response directed against the autoantigens located in the biliary epithelium.Immunologically,PBC is characterized by the presense of antimitochodrial antibodies,elevated serum IgM and lymphoid infiltration in the portal tract.Indeed,the relationships between IgM and PBC have been a major focus of research on its pathphysiology,which lead to an increased understanding of the abnormal immune responses involved in PBC.This review summarizes data on the biological and clinical significance of Hyper-IgM in PBC,and highlights the potential role of IgM for the diagnosis and treatment of PBC.

China Pharmacy 1991;0(06):-
OBJECTIVE: To explore the regularity and characteristics of ADR induced by levofloxacin. METHODS: Retrieved from, CHKD of CNKI and Wanfang database, a total of 205 literatures about levofloxacin-induced ADR were collected and analyzed statistically in respect of patients’ gender, age, case history, administration route, clinical manifestation and result of treatment. RESULTS: 483 cases(92.9%) were given levofloxacin intravenously in total of 520 ADR cases. 156 cases were characterized with lesion of skin and its appendants (30.0%), followed by lesion of nervous system (n=133, 25.6%), lesion of cardiovascular system (n=65, 12.5%) and anaphylactic shock (n=45, 8.7%). The earliest ADR occurred within 2 min after administration while the latest occurred in 34 d after administration. 514 cases recovered when drug withdrawal or treatment were taken. However, there were 2 cases of sequelae, 4 cases of death and 62 cases of unexpected serious ADRs. CONCLUSION:ADRs induced by levofloxacin present complicated and various symptoms caused by several factors in which the most serious result in death. Clinical doctors should pay more attention to levofloxacin-induced ADRs.

With the development of medical imaging technology, hemodynamics-based functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has gradually become one of the major tools to investigate human brain function, however, it is of limited temporal resolution. In recent years, neuronal current MRI (nc-MRI) was proposed as a new imaging method to directly map the magnetic field change caused by neural activities. Theoretically, nc-MRI can non-inva- sively locate brain activities with very high spatial and temporal resolution, thus it may greatly improve the study of human brain function. This paper reviews the construction mechanism of nc-MRI, including theoretical model of the neuronal magnetic field and signal source. Arithmetic simulation of nc-MRI signal with an illustration of our work on simulation of a dendrite branch magnetic field is presented. New development of the experimental studies and foreground of nc-MRI area are discussed.

Objective To evaluate the timing of postoperative parenteral nutrition support for gastrointestinal tumor patients with a definite nutritional risk.Methods Using a randomized control clinical research methods,80 gastrointestinal cancer patients were randomly divided into study group (40 cases) and control group (40 cases).In the study group parenteral nutrition support started on postoperative day 2,while in the control group it started on postoperative day 1.Flatus passing,the rate of infectious complications,the rate of systemic inflammatory response syndrome,postoperative nutrition support related expenses,and the duration of postoperative hospital stay were recorded.Results There was no significant differences between the two groups (P > 0.05) in age,sex,body mass index,use of glutamine,disease and type of surgery.Compared with the control group,patients in the study group had earlier postoperative flatus passing [(3.33± 1.10) d vs.(4.03 ± 1.51) d,P =0.020],less systemic inflammation response syndrome (8/40 vs.17/40,P =0.030),shorter postoperative hospital stay [(3.33±1.10) d vs.(4.03±1.51) d,P=0.020] and lower nutrition support costs [(2144.49 ±1210.96) RMB vs.(2915.99 ± 1615.68) RMB,P =0.018].There was no significant difference in postoperative nutrition index,peristalsis recovery time and infectious complications between the two groups (all P > 0.05).Conclusions In patients undergoing surgery for GI tumors,parenteral nutrition support started on post-op day 2 promotes the recovery of gastrointestinal function,while decreasing medical cost.

The medical education has long paid great attention to students' specialized knowledge education and neglected the humanities education for all-around development excessively. Diagnostics is a bridge curriculum between basic medicine and clinical medicine. Enhancing the quality education by fully combining the process of diagnostics teaching plays an important role in qualified medical talents training.

Selective protein degradation by the ubiquitin 26S proteasome pathway has emerged as a key regulatory mechanism in a wide variety of cellular processes.The ubiquitin/26S proteosome pathway mainly consists of ubiquitin activating enzyme(E1),ubiquitin conjugating enzyme(E2),ubiquitin protein ligase(E3),and 26S proteasome.In an ATP-dependent reaction,uibquitin(Ub) is conjugated to E1,the activated Ub is then transferred to an E2.Finally,the Ub-E2 intermediate delivers the Ub to the target protein by E3 recognition.Polyubiquinated proteins are eventually degraded by the 26S proteasome.In plants,regulated protein degradation by /26S proteasome pathway contributes significantly to development by affecting a wide range of progress,including hormone signaling,photomorphogenesis,self-incompatibility and cell cycle.The recent progress towards understanding the role of the Ub/26S proteasome pathway during plant development was reviewed.

Objective: To explore influence of bisoprolol on neuroendocrine factor levels in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF), and its therapeutic effects.Methods: A total of 116 CHF patients, who were treated in our department from Jan 2014 to Nov 2015, were selected.According to random number table, they were randomly and equally divided into routine treatment group and bisoprolol group.Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (LVEDd), 6min walking distance (6MWD), serum levels of brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), endothelin (ET) and atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) before and three months after treatment, and therapeutic effect were compared between two groups.Results: There were no significant difference in above indexes between two groups before treatment, P>0.05 all.Compared with routine treatment group after three-month treatment, there were significant rise in LVEF [(28.13±4.16)% vs.(36.02±5.14)%] and 6MWD [(245.74±44.62)m vs.(315.23±53.12)m], significant reductions in LVEDd [(62.73±10.14)mm vs.(52.82±9.47)mm], serum levels of BNP [(424.51±62.26) ng/ml vs.(324.35±50.46) ng/ml], ET [(80.14±13.25) ng/ml vs.(57.91±10.32) ng/ml] and ANP [(233.24±42.35)ng/ml vs.(164.83±31.26) ng/ml] in bisoprolol group, P<0.05 all.Compared with routine treatment group, there was significant rise in total effective rate (72.4% vs.86.2%) in bisoprolol group, P=0.04.Conclusion: Bisoprolol can significantly reduce BNP, ET and ANP levels, then delay ventricular remodeling and improve cardiac function in patients with chronic heart failure.The therapeutic effect is significant, which is worth extending.
