OBJECTIVE: To study the influence of Xuanfeijiedu granules on trace elements, immunoglobulin E (IgE), eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) of allergic rhinitis. METHOD: One hundred and ten cases of allergic rhinitis ere randomly divided into two groups, 55 cases of the observation group were treated with budesonide, 55 cases of the control group were treated with Xuanfeijiedu granules, the treatment efficacy and serum trace elements, IgE, ECP level were observed. RESULT: The total effective rate of observation group and control group were 92. 7% and 96. 4%, there was no significant difference between two groups (P>0. 05). Before treatment, the serum zinc (Zn), copper (Cu), manganese (Mn) and IgE, ECP levels of two groups were compared, there was no significant difference (P>0. 05); after treatment, the serum Zn level was significantly increased, the serum Cu, Mn, IgE, ECP levels were significantly reduced, and the observation group changed more significantly, there were significant differences between two groups (P<. 05). CONCLUSION Xuanfeijiedu granules in the treatment of allergic rhinitis can significantly improve the patient's serum trace elements and IgE, ECP levels, improve the state of patient's disease, and promote the rehabilitation of patients.

The effects of anisodamine (654-2) on blood lactate, plasma glucose and hepatocytic glycogen levels were observed in 25 endotoxin-treated dogs. The results showed that the elevated blood lactate level decreased more rapidly and was sign-ificanly lower in the 654-2 treated group compared with the control group at 4,5 and 6h after endotoxin administration (P

Objective To investigate the role of tracheotomy in children with severe hand foot and mouth disease.Methods Eight children with severe hand foot and mouth disease collected from July 2009 to August 2011 in PICU were retrospectively reviewed.Clinical manifestation and laboratory data were analyzed and followed up.Results Eight patients were enterovirus 71 (EV71) positive.Hormones,intravenous immune globulin,mechanical ventilation and vasodilators had been administered in patients with cardiopulmonary failure.They had severe neurologic sequelae,requiring prolonged intubation.MRI imaging of 7 cases showed abnormal brainstem,pons and medulla oblongata,1 case showed swelling of brain tissue.A total of 8 patients underwent a tracheotomy in mean (25.63 ± 8.86) d.The older was 22 months,the younger was 8 months and the mean age was (13.13 ±4.22) months.Four cases died,the other survived.Two cases were successfully decannulation,the other two were still in the tracheotomy.Conclusion Tracheostomy play an active role in reducing airway resistance,clearing airway secretions,providing the opportunity for subsequent rehabilitation.Eight patients were followed up for three years,neurological sequelae could not be restored.Four cases repeatedly suffer from pneumonia,atelectasis,leading to a serious decline in quality of life.

Tick-borne encephalitis ( TBE) is a well-known central nervous system ( CNS) infection in children. The disease in children is generally milder,although severe illness may occur and even lead to perma-nent impairment of the quality of life due to neuropsychological sequelae. We review the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of tick-borne encephalitis,and summarise biological and virological aspects that are impor-tant for understanding the life-cycle and transmission of the virus. Tick-borne encephalitis virus is a flavivirus that is transmitted by ixodes persulcatus. Tick-borne encephalitis causes acute meningoencephalitis. The serologi-cal diagnosis is usually straightforward. No specific treatment for the disease exists,and immunisation is the main preventive measure.

Objective To investigate the association between the EPHX2 polymorphism G860A and the risk of hypertension in mild ages. Methods In a hospital based case-control study, one common polymorphism C860A in EPHX2 gene in a case-control study of 100 hypertension and 300 age- and sex frequency - matched disease-free controls were genotyped in a Southern Chinese population. SAS 9. 13 was used toanalysis the polymorphism and hypertension risk. Results Genotype frequencies of EPHX2 G860Alocus between the cases and the controls were significantly different (P =0. 01). Compared with the most common 860GG genotype, the 860GA heterozygote had an increased risk of hypertension (adjusted OR =1.98; 95%CI = 1.19 -3.51), the AA homozygote had a further increased risk of hypertension (adjusted OR =2. 84; 95%CI = 1.01 -6. 11). There was a significant trend for an allele dose effect on risk of hypertension (P trend = 0. 03). Conclusions EPHX2 polymorphism G860A is associated with an increased risk of hypertension, and the 860A variant may be a marker for susceptibility to hypertension.

Objective To observe apoptosis of primary cultured synoviocytes from patients with rheumtoid arthritis (RA) which induced by transfected recombinant plasmid carring Fas ligand (FasL) gene, aimed to detect the aim targets and develope gene therapy for RA by intra-articular injection. Methods FasL cDNA was introducted into the plasmid pcDNA3.1-neo by reverse transcriptase-polymerse chain reaction (RT-PCR) to set up the recombinated human FasL gene expression carrier, Then the pcDNA3.1-FasL was transducted into the primary cultured synovial cells by catholyte liposomes. After screened by G418, transgenic synovial cells were choosen. Finally through the microscope, TUNEL, Annexin Ⅴ-FITC and PI staining with flow cytometry, we observed the apoptosis state of each synovial cell. Results Prokaryotic and eukaryon carrier with FasL gene were established successfilly. The gene sequencing had completely coincident with the lierature. When eukaryon carrier with FasL (pcDNA3.1-FasL) was transducted into the index number livinging RA synovial cells after 15 h, most synovial cells presented distortion transformation, and the minority sheded from the bottom wall. The transgenic RA synovial cells after screened by G418, only a little amount survived about 1~2 per sight, and the cells grew slowly, the normal matched cells were cloned after 2~4 weeks. The FasL gene transgenic RA synovial cells presented positive findings by TUNEL staining. Early apoptosis cells by Annexin Ⅴ/PI staining, but the difference wasn′t significant. Conclusion The eukaryon carrier with FasL (pcDNA3.1-FasL) can be transferred into RA synovial cells. It can induce synovial cell apoptosis.

Objective To research the relationship between the expression of cyclooxygenase-2(COX-2),vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF),microvessel density(MVD)and the CT appearances of lung cancer.Methods CT scans were performed respectively in 35 patients with benign disease and 25 patients with lung cancer confirmed pathology.The immunohistochemistry of all pathologic specimen was analysed using P-V method.The relationship between the expression of COX-2,VEGF,MVD and the CT appearances,histological types,clinic stages,lymph nodes metastasis of lung cancer was evaluated.Results The expression level of COX-2,VEGF,and MVD in lung carcinoma was(64.8?13.8)%,(76.4?14.1)% and(62.5?14.6)/HP respectively,it was higher than that in the lung benign disease group.The level of expression of COX-2,VEGF and MVD was closely related to the CT appearances,histological types,clinic stages and lymph nodes metastasis of lung cancer,but there was no relationship with differentiation of carcinoma.Conclusion COX-2,VEGF and MVD may be important molecular biological predictors in diagnosing lung cancer early and can evaluate prognosis of patients with lung cancer.CT appearances can reflect the vascular characteristics of lung cancer,and can predict the involvement,metastasis and prognosis of lung carcinoma according to the appearances of CT.
