Objective To investigate the effect of 17?-estradiol (E2) on the expression of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) mRNA in the myocardial tissues in rats during myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) process, and explore the relationship between HGF mRNA expression and myocardial apoptosis. Methods Using the random number table, 40 male SD rats were divided into 2 groups (20 rats in each group) randomly, ischemia-reperfusion (control) group and E2 treatment group. Myocardial I/R models of rats were duplicated by ligating the left anterior descending coronary artery for 20 min then reperfusion for 30 min. The expression of HGF and the apoptosis of myocardiocytes were observed with RT-PCR, TUNEL and flow cytometry. Results At the points of cardiac ischemia for 20 min and reperfusion for 30 min, in the E2 treatment group, the expressions of HGF mRNA were significantly higher than corresponding points of the control group (P

Ultraviolet light hardening therapy is an effective method for the treatment of polymorphic light eruption (PLE) . Recent studies have shown that narrow-band ultraviolet B (NB-UVB) is effective and safe for the prevention of recurrence of PLE. However, its treatment mechanisms still need further elucidation, and clinical studies with large sample size are needed for long-term tracking and assessment of initial dose of photohardening, dose-addition principle, treatment frequency and maintenance treatment protocols, in order to confirm the clinical application value of ultraviolet light photohardening therapy.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the clinical pathologic characteristics of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade III (CINIII ) and to explore optimal surgery for CINIII patients. METHODS: The clinical pathologic characteristics, surgical treatments, prognosis and history of 383 CINIII patients, who hospitalized from August 2005 to December 2010, were reviewed and analyzed. Among the patients, 213 (55.6%) received cold-knife conization surgery and 170 (44.4%) received ordinary electric knife conization surgery. RESULTS: There was no significant statistic difference between cold-knife conization group and ordinary electric-knife conization group on the level of clearance of the pathologic tissues and the cervical cone diameter and cone high. Intraoperative blood loss was (13.1±5.2) mL and (25.5±17.2) mL. Bleeding of electric knife conization group, compared with that of the cold knife conization group, decreased by nearly 50%. The difference between the 2 groups was significant (P<0.01). Pathological examination after conization operation indicated that 350 out of the 383 patients didn't show pathological upgrade while 33 patients showed pathological development, among which 21 were diagnosed with invasive cervical cancer at Ia1 clincal stage, 7 atIa2 clincal stage and 5 atIb1 clincal stage. In 3 cases (14.3%) Ia1 cervical cancer patients, fertility requirements and negative margins with cervical conization were closely followed up, and one patient (4.8%) with positive margin and fertility requirements had re-conecut. The remaining 17 (80.9%) had resected the uterus outside the fascia (or plus attachments) . All the 12 patients with invasive cervical cancer at Ia2 orIb1 clinical stage received radical hysterectomy. No tumor recurrence was observed in the 383 patients. CONCLUSION Treatment optimazation of CINIII patients should be based on clinical pathological diagnosis and individual requirements. Both cervical conization surgery and total hysterectomy have been proved safe and practical for CINIII patients.

Objective To observe the nutritional biochemical indicators of paraquat poisoning patients, analyze and compare the nutritional status of patients and understand the changing trend of each indicator. Methods A total of 104 patients with acute paraquat poisoning who were admitted to the emergency department of the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University from December 2015 to December 2017 were enrolled, and divided into the cure group (patients who survived >30 days) and the death group. Nutritional biochemical indicators including serum protein (ALB, PA, TP) and serum lipids (TCh, TG, LDL) were selected for dynamic observation. The observation time points were set as follows: immediate treatment of poisoned patients (day 1 on admission), on day 4, 7, 10, 13 and 16 after admission, and on day 30 after follow-up. The nutritional biochemical indicators of the two groups on day 1 and 4 were statistically analyzed and compared by t test. The nutritional status of the patients in the cure group was analyzed, and the Repeated Measures Anova was performed to understand the trend of each indicator over time. Results In the cure group, the TP level decreased from (73.34±5.75)g/L on day 1 to (51.95±6.05)g/L on day 4, t=20.34, P<0.01; and the TCh level decreased from (4.37±0.98) mmol/L on day 1 to (3.03±1.01)mmol/L on day 4, t=7.56, P<0.01. In the death group, the TP level decreased from (72.25±8.80)g/L on day 1 to (49.07±5.48)g/L on day 4, t=12.38, P<0.01, and the TCh level decreased from (4.38±0.88)mmol/L on day 1 to (2.51±1.07) mmol/L on day 4, t=7.94, P<0.01. Compared with the cure group, serum levels of ALB, TP and TCh in the death group decreased greater from day 1 to day 4 (all P<0.05). In addition, dynamic observation of the indicators in the cure group within 16 days after admission showed that, after treatment, the levels of ALB and TP recovered slowly and were still lower than normal . While the levels of PA and lipid rose rapidly after 10 days of admission. Conclusions Paraquat poisoning seriously affects the nutritional status of patients, and the serum protein levels decline significantly and can not be recovered easily. Therefore, sufficient attention should be paid to the treatment, and timely and appropriate nutritional support should be provided.

Objective To study the mechanism of paraquat (PQ)-induced renal injury in rats,the expression changes of ICAM-1 to assess the protective effect of Melatonin in PQ poisoning.Methods Ninety adult healthy Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were divided into three groups at random.Control group:30 rats;Poisoned group:30 rats;Melatonin group:30 rats.Control group and Poisoned group were treated intragastrically with 1 ml of PQ (50 mg/kg) diluted with normal saline.Control groupwere treated with the same dose of normal saline as Poisoned group and Melatonin group.Melatonin group were given 1 ml of Melatonin at a dose of 10 mg/kg diluted with normal saline (once daily,intraperitoneally) Control and Poisoned group were treated with the same dose of normal saline (once daily,intraperitoneally) as Melatonin group.Pathology of renal tissue were oberserved by HE staining,and electron microscope.The histopathological changes and the expression of ICAM-1 were observed with mmunohistochemistry (IHC).Results (1) There were no obvious pathological changes in Control group.Poisoned group Renal glomerulus had hyperemia and distension.Renal tubule epithelial cell had edema and vacuolar degeneration and renal tubule lumina was narrowing on day 1,There were serious edema exudation and necrosis on day 5,which gradually lessened furthermore;Compared with Poisoned group,the aforementioned pathological lesion was more palliative in Melatonin group.(2) No obvious abnomal changes in ultrastructure of renal tissues in Control group.There were swelling of mitochondrion and rupture of renal tubule epithelial cell and endoplasmic reticulum had extension,lysosome was mult and had much phagocytosis in Poisoned group.(3)There was a very weak expression of ICAM-1 in Control group.while in Poisoned group,there was already a significant higher expression of ICAM-1 of renal tubule on day 1 after PQ poisoning,Immunohistochemistry score (IHS) of Poisoned group on day 1,3,5,7,14 were (0.1561 ±0.0295、0.2572±0.0259、0.3028±0.0153、0.2083 ±0.0227、0.9309 ±0.0059),compared with Control group (P＜0.01);Melatonin group were (0.1259±0.0061、0.2109±0.0280、0.2679±0.0233、0.1771 ±0.0186、0.0791 ±0.0135),compared with Control group (P＜0.01),compared with Poisoned group (P＜0.05);Conclusion ICAM-1 was involved in the procedures of renal injury;MT surely had a protective effect,which might be mediated by ICAM-1 in the paraquat-induced renal injury,but its regulation path still need a further exploration.

In order to improve the clinical attention to the poisoning of chlorfenapyr, the diagnosis and treatment strategy of chlorfenapyr poisoning were discussed. This paper collected 4 cases of chlorfenapyr in the emergency department of the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University and 4 cases of literature review, summarized the clinical characteristics of pesticide poisoning cases containing chlorfenapyr in China, and summarized and analyzed the clinical data of the cases. Seven of the 8 patients died from poisoning by chlorfenapyr. Exposure to chlorfenapyr through respiratory tract and digestive tract showed high mortality. Fever, hyperhidrosis, elevated muscle enzymes and progressive central nerve damage were its prominent clinical characteristics. Most of the initial symptoms of exposure were not serious. Some patients, especially those with low exposure dose, had a relatively stable stage with or without clinical diagnosis and treatment. In case of sweating, obvious fever and disturbance of consciousness, the condition would deteriorate rapidly, respiratory and circulatory failure and eventually die. With the increase of production capacity and market launch, people have more opportunities to be exposed to chlorfenapyr. It is urgent to strengthen the basic and clinical research of chlorfenapyr poisoning; Attention should be paid to the observation and treatment in the initial stable stage of poisoning, which can be used as a reference for the treatment of oxidative phosphoric acid dissolving coupling agent (sodium pentachlorophenol) poisoning.
