NO is an important signal factor existing in expiratory air of normal person.Different kinds of airway inflammation can cause the increase of NO,especially eosinophilic inflammation.Fractional exhaled nitric oxide(FENO) can result in airway inflammation,which is noninvasive,repeatable and easily performed.It can be very helpful in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of airway symptoms such as recurrent wheezing and chronic cough.It can also help determine the state of the disease and prognosis.It is a very useful tool in the assessment and management of airway diseases,especially asthma.

Objective To elucidate the characteristics of dermatosis in air force pilots and to improve its prevention and treatment scientifically. Method We carried out an investigation on 288 air force pilots hospitalized for dermatosis over the past 20 years. Results The results showed that 57.99% of the patients studied were admitted to hospital due to psychoimmunodermatosis, with high person-time (61.39%) and significantly longer average hospitalization time than that of the patients with the other two kinds of dermatoses. With improvement in flight skill and intensity as well as prolongation of flight time, the incidence and number of relapse of psychoimmunodermatosis in pilots were correspondingly increased. Conclusion The results indicate that among various dermatoses, psychoimmunodermatosis should become the focus of prevention and treatment as far as air force pilots are concerned. Besides drug treatment, we should also put emphasis on health education and psychological persuasion.

BACKGROUND: Artificial nerve grafts of human hair keratin are a kind of biological products. It has low antigenicity,absorbability and stimulation to nerve fiber growth following specific biochemistry. It is hoped to have better effect than otherartificial nerve grafts.　 OBJECTIVE: To investigate the anatomy and histocompatibility of artificial nerve grafts of the human-hair keratin, and toobserve its effects on the repair of peripheral nerves. 　 DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: Randomized, controlled, animal experiment. The study was performed at the Animal CentralLaboratory of Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University Medical College between November 2006 and June 2008. MATERIALS: Artificial nerve grafts of human hair keratin is a compound of human hair processed by specific controlledbiochemistry based on ground substance, embedded with a layer of biological membrane. It has low antigenicity, absorbabilityand stimulation to nerve fiber growth following specific biochemistry. METHODS: Eighteen Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups. The sciatic nerve, 10 mm, was removed andtransplanted with human-hair keratin graft, skeletal muscle and untreated hair, respectively.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The characteristics of histomorphology and anatomy were observed at 8, 12, 24 weeks afterthe surgery. RESULTS: White tissues appeared between the broken ends of the sciatic nerve at 8 post-operative week in the graft group,and appeared in the graft space in human-hair keratin at the 12th week. At the 24th week, a large amount of infantile myelinatednerve fibers were observed under optical microscope regenerating around the human hair, which was partially degraded andabsorbed. Schwann cells were observed under an electron microscope and myelinization. 　 CONCLUSION: The artificial nerve grafts of the human-hair keratin are well compatible with the body tissues, and couldinduce nerve regeneration.

0.05). Conclusion We di d not find the difference between the two CYP2C19 phenotypes in relation to the acid-suppressing effect of esomeprazole.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of radiopaque markers method on gastrointestinal motility.Methods Using self-made markers,2 mm?2 mm,20 markers were put into a capsule.42 patients with functicnal dypepsia(FD),50 patients with chronic functional constipation(CFC)and 20 healthy controls were included in the study.Each subjects ingested a capsule together with standard food and plain abdominal films were made after 4 h,48 h and 72 h.Gastric emptying rate at the fourth hour,gastrointestinal emptying rate at 48 h and 72 h and emptying index at 72 h were calculated.Results 66.6%(28/42)FD patients had delayed gastric emptying rate.Gastrointestinal emptying rate at 48 h and 72 h were lower in CFC patients than in controls (?

Objective To understand the prevalence and epidemiological features of clonorchiasis sinensis based on inpa-tients in Zhongshan City. Methods All of the 23 town hospitals in Zhongshan City were selected as the surveillance hospitals in 2016. Among the inpatients from those hospitals,those lived in the city longer than 6 months were selected as the surveillance subjects. The stool specimens of the subjects were collected and examined by the modified Kato-Katz thick smear method for the eggs of Clonorchis sinensis. The crude infection rates of C. sinensis of the subjects were standardized according to the age and sex compositions of the population in Zhongshan City,2016. Meanwhile,the infection rates of the subjects from different towns and those combined with related clinical diseases were analyzed. Results A total of 2667 people were included in the surveil-lance,among which 219 were tested as positives,with a crude infection rate of 8.21％. For the positives,the male accounted for 81.74％(179/219),and their age ranged from 4 to 89 years with the mean value of(62.20±13.80)years. After standardization by age and sex composition,the infection rate was 3.62％for the whole population,the rates of the male and the female were 5.46％and 1.53％,respectively,and the former was 3.57 times as high as the latter. Both the infection rates of the male and the female rose as the age increasing(χ2 male=99.91,χ2 female=16.51,both P<0.01). The standardized infection rates among the subjects in different towns ranged from 0 to 10.40％,and the rates in the north towns were higher than those in the south towns. The standardized rate was 9.22％for the subjects combined with gallstone,3.40％for those not combined with gallstone,and the former was 2.71 times as high as that of the latter. Conclusion The people aged 30 years and above,with gallstone or living in towns with high C. sinensis infection rates are the key population for prevention and control of clonorchiasis in Zhongshan City.

Objective To investigate motor activity of gastrointestinal tract in patients with slow transit constipation(STC). Methods 42 patients with STC and 20 healthy controls were included in the study. Each subject underwent colonic transit test, gastric emptying, orocecal transit time, electromyography and anorectal manometry. Results According to transit index, 42 STC patients were divided into 3 types: ①0.5

Obiective To investigate acid-suppression efficacy of proton pump inhibitors(PPls) in relation to CYP2C19 genetic polymorphism on patients with peptic ulcer. Methods By an open, randomized and control trial, fifty nine patients with active peptic ulcer were randomly assigned to receive one of three PPIs on a single dose (20 mg of each drug): omeprazole group (n=19), rabeprazole group (n=20) and esomeprazole group (n=20). lntragastric pH was recorded 1 hour before and 24 hours after administration. CYP2C19 genotype was tested in all patients. Resuits The EMs/PMs ratio of each group was 16/3,17/3 and 17/3, respectively. The total time that intragastric pH＞4, time percent pH＞4 and median pH in PMs patients were significantly higher than those in EMs patients of omeprazole group (P＜0.05). But all these differences were not found in rabeprazole group and esomeprazole group. The pH of nocturnal acid breakthrough (NAB) in both rabeprazole group and esomeprazole group was higher than that of omeprazole group, while there was no significant difference between rabeprazole group and esomeprazole group. Gonclusion The acid-suppression efficacy of omeprazole is highly dependent on CYP2C19 genetic polymorphism, while CYP2C19 genetic polymorphism may have a little influence on the acid-suppression efficacy of rabeprazole and esomeprazole. The acid-suppression action of rabeprazole and esomeprazole is superior to omeprazole, especially on night acid secretion.

Objectives To compare the migrating motor complex (MMC) in irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) patients with that in healthy controls. To explore whether discrete clustered contractions (DCC) are connected with abdominal pain in IBS patients. To improve the method of measuring gastroenteric motility (esp. jejunum). Methods By using 16-channel water-perfused catheter and manometry instruments, MMC in 16 cases of IBS with constipation (IBS-C), 18 cases of IBS with diarrhea (IBS-D) and 18 cases of healthy controls were monitored. Results The MMC durations of IBS-C and IBS-D patients were (127.5±25.5) min and (74.5±18.7) min, respectively. Comparision with those in the control group [(87.5±24.2) min]showed significant differences (P<0. 001). The contraction amplitudes of stage Ⅲ in different sites of IBS-C patients decreased significantly as compared with those in the controls [jejunum, (39.8±11.7) mm Hg vs. (61.1±14.1) mm Hg,P<0.001,1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa]. The propagation velocities of stage Ⅲ in different sites of IBS-C patients also decreased significantly as compared with those in the controls [jejunum, (1.8±0.9) cm/min vs. (2.6±0.8) cm/min,P<0.01].The contraction amplitudes of stage Ⅲ in different sites of IBS-D patients increased significantly as compared with those in the controls [jejunum, (69.7±20.5) mm Hg vs. (61.1±14.1) mm Hg, P<0.01]. The propagation velocities of stage Ⅲ in different sites of IBS-D patients also increased significantly as compared with those in the controls [jejunum, (4.1±2.5) cm/min vs. (2.6±0.8) cm/min, P < 0. 01]. DCC incidences of IBS-C and IBS-D were 87.5% and 88. 8%, respectively. Comperision with those in the normal group (83.3%) did not show significant difference (P>0.05). The prevalences of abnormal stage Ⅲ contractions (include disturbances and interferences of stage Ⅲ contractions) in IBS-C and IBS-D patients were 68.8% and 66. 7%, respectively; there were no significant differences between the two groups (P > 0. 05). However abnormal stage Ⅲ contractions did not exist in healthy controls. Conclusions (1) The MMC of IBS-C and IBS-D patients are changed, as compared with that in healthy people; this implies that small intestinal motility dysfunction is one of the pathogenetic factors of IBS. The abnormal stage Ⅲ contractions in jejunum may be a predominant change in IBS gastroenteric motility. (2) No apparent connection is found between DCC and pain in IBS. (3) By using 16-channel water-perfused catheter, we first carried out the method of monitoring jejunum contractions in China. Parameters of MMC in Chinese healthy people were investigated, esp. those of jejunum.
