The patient presented with dry cough, lending, fever and progressive dyspnea for two weeks. The patient had a prior respiratory infection history and the symptoms were not obvious, Early X-ray showed lung infection. Under the fibrolaryngoscope, the lingual surfaces of the epiglottis, epiglottic vallecula, and bilateral vocal cords were covered by yellow pseudomembrane. The motion of vocal cords was normal with poor glottic closure, and no ulcer was noted. Endotracheal mucosa was swelling and congested with an uneven surface, and purulent discharge and pseudomembrane was formed. Pathological examination revealed Aspergillus. The disease was diagnosed as Aspergillus laryngotracheobronchitis.

Objective Analyze the factors which have influenced the quality of life (QOL) of the patients with cancer, and then put up the corresponding nursing measures. Method Using the EROTCQOLQ- C30 and the social support scale to analyze 600 patients with cancer. Results The value which can indicate the QOL of patients with cancer was 83.00 ? 22.00. The factors which have influenced the QOL of patients with cancer were age, gender, occupation, marriage, cultural degree, social support, disease, and so on. Conclusion Using the positive methods and the social support to raise the QOL of cancer patients according to the concreted condition of them.

Objective To explore and evaluate the effect of 32P and pinyangmycin injected in combination for the treatment of maxillofacial hemangioma. Methods The patients were randomly divided into three groups. The first group of patients was treated with 32P; 100 patients were enrolled in this group, of which 37 were male and 63 female. 32P dosage between 0.37 and 0. 74 MBq per cm3 was prepared together with 0.5 ml of 2 %lidocaine, and appropriate normal saline, and then the mixture was injected into hemangioma every two weeks. The second group was given pinyangmycin, and the third group received both 32P and pinyangmycin. The second group included 30 male and 60 female, and the third group 64 male and 136 female. The dose and frequency were given as the same to the first group. Results 88.5 % of patients were cured using both 32P and pinyangmycin, and the cure rate was 77.0 % and 71.7 % with either 32P or pinyangmycin. Conclusion These results prove that 32P and pinyangmycin injected in combination for the treatment of maxillofacial hemangioma is more effective than either 32P or pinyangmycin alone, and furthermore, the method is easy, safe and has less complications.

Objective Rapid elevation of the IgG antibody against Candida Enolase ( Eno ) has been observed in patients with invasive candidosis in an early stage .The present study was to confirm the association of Candida colonization with humoral im-mune anamnestic response of the dominant antigen . Methods Twenty-four mice were randomized into group 1 treated by oral Candi-da colonization plus intraperitoneal infection ( immunocompetent , n=8) , 2 treated with immunosuppressant in addition to the treatment of group 1 ( immunocompromised , n=8) , 3 treated by oral Candida colonization only ( immunocompetent , n=4) and 4 treated by in-traperitoneal injection only( immunocompetent, n=4).The number of Eno-specific memory B-cells in the spleen and the levels of IgG , IgM and IgA antibodies were determined in the peripheral blood of the immunocompetent and immunocompromised invasive candidiasis mice . Results At 7 days after invasive infection , there were significantly more Eno-specific memory B-cells in the mice of groups1 ( 47.25 ± 13.81) and 2 (43.14±15.95) than in groups 3 (8.00±3.74) and 4(8.50±2.38) (P<0.01), with no statistically significant differences between either groups 1 and 2 or groups 3 and 4 (P >0.05).Eno-IgG antibodies were detected in the serum of the mice of the first two groups in the early stage of invasive infection and positively corre -lated with antigen-specific memory B-cells (r=0.737,P <00.1 ). Conclusion Rapid elevation of the Eno-IgG antibody level in the early stage of invasive infection after Candida colonization may be attributed to the rapid proliferation of humoral immune memory cells.

Objective To investigate the comprehensive prevention strategy in the prevention of oral mucositis (OM) during allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Methods A total of 721 patients who received HSCT from January 2010 to December 2011 at the Institute of Hematology, Peking University were enrolled. All the patients received the comprehensive prevention strategy of OM. Results A total of 315 patients (43.7 percents) suffered from OM during HSCT, the median time from HSCT to OM occurrence was 5 days. There were 173 (54.9 percents), 91(28.9 percents), 37(11.7 percents), and 14(4.4 percents) patients suffered from gradeⅠ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ, and IV OM, respectively. Tongue OM was most common. A total of 111 patients suffered from multiple OM (≥2 locations). Multiplicity showed that duration of agranulocytosis≥15 days was the only independent risk factor of OM in HSCT [ hazard ratio (HR) value 1.5, P<0.05 ]. Neutrophil engraftment time≥12 days was significantly associated with prolonged OM (≥8 days) (HR=2.1, P<0.05). Patient age ≥20 was independent risk factor for occurrance of grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ OM (HR=2.7, P<0.05). Conclusions Comprehensive prevention strategy can overcome the risk factors of OM and prevent the occurrence of OM during HSCT.

Objective To investigate the effect of continuous veno-venous hemofiltration (CVVH) on pulmonary vascular permeability in the early stage of septic shock.Methods Fifty-one patients of septic shock admitted in intensive care unit of the First Affiliated Hopsital of Medical College,Zhejiang University between June 2010 and December 2011 were randomized into two groups by simple random method.Routine treatment was carried out to patients in group A,and routine treatment plus CVVH to patients in group B in the first 72 hours.Repeated respiratory mechanic hemodynamic measurements were done at baseline (Tb) before treatment,at 48 hours (T48) and 72 hours (T72) after the treatment.Pulmonary compliance (Cst),platform pressure (Pplat),oxygenation index (PaO2/FiO2),extravascular lung water index (EVLWI) and E-selectin determined at each time point were recorded in two groups.Results (1) Pplat were decreased significantly after treatment in two groups,and the Pplat in group B were all lower than those in group A at T48 and T72 (t =2.215,P ＜ 0.05 ; t =4.266,P ＜ 0.01).Cst were elevated after treatment in two groups,and Cst in group B were all higher than those in group A at T48 and T72 (t =2.516,P ＜0.05 ; t =3.052,P ＜ 0.01).(2) Compared to before treatment,PaO2/FiO2 increased significantly after treatment in two groups,and PaO2/FiO2 in group B were all higher than those in group A at T48 and T72 (t =2.732,P ＜0.01 ; t =3.511,P ＜0.01).(3) EVLWI were decreased significantly after treatment in two groups,and the EVLWI in group B were all lower than those in group A at T48 and T72 (t =2.597,P ＜0.05; t =2.125,P ＜ 0.05).ITBVI,CI,SVRI and MAP did not change over time in two groups compared with those at Tb (all P ＞ 0.05).(4) E-selectin were decreased significantly after treatment in two groups,and the E-selectin in group B were all lower than those in group A at T48 and T72 (t =2.154,P ＜0.05 ; t =3.581,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion CVVH in early stage of septic shock can improve pulmonary vascular permeability and oxygenation,increase Cst,and decline EVLWI,with neither increased hemodynamics.

Objective Invasive candidiasis is associated with a significant mortality clinically.The purpose of this study was to observe the T cells immune response to fructose bisphosphate aldolase (Fba), an immunodominant antigen of Candida albicans, and determine whether the antigen has the possibility of priming cellular immune protection in invasive candiasis.Methods Using ELISPOT assay, we determined the frequencies of positive spot-forming cells (SFCs) of Fba antigen-specific T cells secreting IFN-γ, IL-4 and IL-17A in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of 26 healthy individuals.Results After Fba stimulation, the frequencies of positive SFCs of IFN-γ, IL-4 and IL-17A in the 26 healthy subjects were 23 (9.75, 42.50), 0 (0, 0.25) and 1.5 (0.75, 8.25), respectively, with statistically significant differences among the three (P<0.01).The response rates of IFN-γ (100% [26/26]) and IL-17A (76.92% [20/26]) were significantly higher than that of IL-4 (15.38% [4/26]) (P<0.01).Fba-induced strong response (SCFs ≥20) for IFN-γ was observed in 57.69% (15/26) of the healthy individuals, that for IL-17A in only 1, while that for IL-4 in none.Responses of both Th1 and Th17 cells to Fba were found in 65.38% (17/26) of the subjects, that of Th1 cells in 19.23% (5/26), but that of Th2 cells in none.Conclusion Fba of Candida albicans can induce immunodominant responses of Th1 and Th17 cells and is a potential vaccine against invasive candiasis.
