To evaluate the efficacy of interferon inhalation by PARI inhaler boy with bronchiolitis, 110 children were randomly divided into two groups. Group 1 included 64 cases who received interferon inhalation by PARI inhaler boy(made in Germany) and the other 46 patients who didn' t received interferon by PARI inhaler boy served as group 2. The effects were compared between the two groups in term of wheezing rale disappearance time, rale absorbing time and hospital stay time. Our results showed that wheezing rale disappearance time in group 1 was shorter than that in group 2( t = 6. 143, P＜ 0.01 ); rale absorbing time in group 1 was significantly shorter than that in group 2 ( t = 2.03, P＜0.05); hospital stay time in group 1 was significantly shorter than that in group 2( t = 3. 195, P＜0.0). It is concluded that interferon inhalation by PARI inhaler boy is an effective auxiliary treatment forbronchiolitis.

Objective To investigate the clinical effectiveness of dynamic hip screw (DHS) internal fixation and proximal femoral nail (PFN) internal fixation for intertrochanteric femoral fractures.Methods One hundred and sixty-five patients with intertrochanteric femoral fractures were randomly divided into 2 groups,85 patients were in DHS group and 80 patients were in PFN group.The clinical effectiveness,index in operative procedure and complications were compared between two groups.Results The fine rate of DHS group and PFN group was 75.3％(64/85 ) and 83.8％( 67/80 ) (P ＞ 0.05 ).The indexes of function recover time,fracture healing time,amount of bleeding in operation,operation time in PFN group were significant lower than those in DHS group [(54.3 ± 11.7 ) d vs.(92.6 ± 10.5 ) d,(63.8 ± 12.2) d vs.(71.3 ± 10.6) d,(453.3 ± 50.7) ml vs.(627.5 ± 46.8) ml,(77.9 ± 25.2) min vs.( 115.7 ± 32.8) min](P＜0.05 ).The rate of short-term complications was 16.2％ (13/80) in PFN group,and 12.9 ％ ( 11/85 ) in DHS group(P ＞ 0.05 ).The rate of long-term complications was 1.2％( 1/80 ) in PEN group and 4.7％(4/85 ) in plts group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions As the treatment of intertrochanteric femoral fractures,PFN internal fixation has less bleeding and better efficacy,and can improve function recovery.PFN internal fixation is a better method for unstable femoral fracture.

Objective To preliminarily test the value of gastroesophageal reflux disease questionnaire (GERD-Q) in auxiliary diagnosis of gastroesophageal reflux disease(GERD) in infants and young children.Methods From January 2011 to February 2014,148 infants and 87 young children with suspected GERD symptoms were enrolled in the outpatient and inpatient departments of Wuhan Women and Children's Medical Care Center.The diagnosis of GERD were made through 24 h esophageal pH monitoring and upper gastrointestinal hysterosalpingography.Those with any examinations being positive were brought into GERD group,and the others into the control group.All cases had been surveyed with GERD-Q.Using SPSS17.0 statistical software,the ratio was compared with chi-square test,and the difference of the scores between groups with t test.Results In infants (1 to 11 months),the individual symptom scores (ISS) of the 6 symptoms in the GERD group (n =111) were all higher than those in the control group (37 cases) (P ＜ 0.05),and the composite and symptom scores (CSS) [(131.43 ± 66.56) scores] in the GERD group was higher than that [(33.70 ± 40.03) scores] in the control group (t =8.42,P ＜ 0.05).In young children (1 to 3 years old),the ISS in the GERD group(55 cases) were all higher than those in the control group(32 cases),and the CSS[(98.58 ± 66.75) scores] in the GERD group was also higher than that [(28.50 ± 35.95) scores] in the control group(t =5.49,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions There is a good correlation for age-specific GERD-Q to distinguish GERD symptoms in infants and young children,which is suitable for the assessment of GERD.

ABSTRACT:Objective To construct V-set and immunoglobulin domain containing 4 (Vsig4)nanobodies (Nbs) as specific macrophage probes so as to use them as molecular probes of macrophagocytes.Methods A nanobody phage library was generated by using peripheral blood lymphocytes isolated from an alpaca immunized with recombinant Vsig4 protein.After three rounds of selection against recombinant Vsig4.The Nbs were subjected to sequencing and genome alignment to obtain VHH sequence.Nbs were isolated and tested for Vsig4 specificity in an ELISA using recombinant Vsig4.The affinity capacity of Nbs was verified by the cell line stably expressing Vsig4. Results A nanobody phage library with an estimated 7.27 × 107 clones with 70% insertion was successfully constructed.Totally 1 3 6 Vsig4-positive clones were sequenced and aligned according to different CDR3 sequences. In summary,1 5 Vsig4 nanobodies were obtained and grouped into 3 different CDR3 epitopes.The affinity of representing nanobody and Vsig4 was analyzed via ELISA;Nb1 1 9 showed the highest affinity against both recombinant and native Vsig4.Conclusion We successfully constructed and screened Vsig4 specific nanobody number 1 1 9 with high affinity and specificity.It can help with macrophage detection and in vivo monitoring.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and 30-day clinical outcomes in patients with spontaneous cerebral hemorrhage and whether adding NLR to ICH score improve the accuracy of predicting poor outcomes.Methods:Patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage admitted to the Department of Neurology, the Second People's Hospital of Hefei from March 2018 to April 2019 were enrolled retrospectively. The demographic and baseline clinical and imaging data were documented. The absolute neutrophil counts and absolute lymphocyte counts within 24 h of onset were obtained and NLR was calculated. At 30 d after the onset of cerebral hemorrhage, the modified Rankin Scale was used to evaluate the outcomes. Good outcome was defined as ≤2, and poor outcome was defined as >2. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent risk factors for poor outcomes. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of baseline NLR, ICH score and NLR+ ICH score for poor outcomes in patients with spontaneous cerebral hemorrhage. Results:A total of 159 patients with spontaneous cerebral hemorrhage were enrolled, including 106 males (66.67%), age 62.29±15.10 years. Neutrophil count was (7.30±3.95)×10 9/L, lymphocyte count was (1.41±0.67)×10 9/L, and NLR was 6.94±7.66. Baseline hematoma volume was 17.93±25.87 ml, median ICH score 0 (interquartile range 0-1). The outcomes of 60 patients (37.7%) were poor at 30 d. Univariate analysis showed that coronary heart disease, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, fasting blood glucose, white blood cell count, neutrophil count, NLR, hematoma broken into the ventricle, hematoma volume, NIHSS and ICH scores in the poor outcome group were significantly higher than those of the good outcome group (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that NLR was an independent predictor of poor outcomes at 30 d after the onset of spontaneous cerebral hemorrhage (odds ratio 1.135, 95% confidence interval 1.092-2.321; P=0.038). The ROC curve analysis showed that the best cut-off value of NLR was 6.679, and the sensitivity and specificity of predicting poor outcomes were 51.67% and 76.77% respectively; the best cut-off value of ICH score was 1.0, and the sensitivity and specificity of predicting poor outcomes were 69.71% and 89.80% respectively; the sensitivity and specificity of the combined application of NLR + ICH score to predict poor outcomes were 74.58% and 82.65% respectively. Conclusions:NLR was independently associated with poor outcomes at 30 d after the onset of spontaneous cerebral hemorrhage. Adding it to the ICH score could improve the accuracy of predicting poor outcome.
