Objective To investigate the clinical diagnostic significance of detecting T in peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets (CD4+,CD8+ and the ratio of pulmonary tuberculosis with diabetes) and explore drug therapy of the five thymus peptide combined anti-tuberculosis on the diabetes complicated with pulmonary tuberculosis.Methods Eighty cases of pulmonary tuberculosis complicated with diabetes mellitus were selected as our treatment subject,who were treated with anti-tuberculosis drug treatment and five thymus peptide regulating immunity treatment.T lymphocyte subsets (CD4 +,CD8 + and their ratio) were detected.Meanwhile acid-fast bacilli and image detection were performed.Another 80 cases were as our control group that treated with anti-tuberculosis drug.Results Following the thymus peptide five treatment for 1,2,and 6 months,T lymphocyte subsets were (CD4+:(34.34 ± 7.32) %,(39.23 ± 6.62) %,(41.06 ± 7.13) %),(CD8+:(31.42 ±8.91)%,(32.52 ±8.58)%,(32.12 ±8.59)%),(CD4+/CD8+:(1.23 ±0.31),(1.34 ±0.30),(1.36 ± 0.32),higher than that of before treatment (30.26 ± 8.25) %,(30.36 ± 9.86) %,(1.13 ± 0.42) CD4 +.Through 2 months treatment,CD4+,CD4+/CD8+ of patient in treatment groups were different with that of control group (P < 0.01 or P < 0.05).80 patients after anti-TB plus application thymopentin regulating immunity for 2 months,normal sputum negative conversion rate of CD4+ was 97.2% and improvement rate was 98.0%.However cases with high CD4+ T lymphocyte subsets showed 78.6% negative rate of acid-fast bacilli and 88.0 % cured rate,and there was significant difference (x2 =4.764,7.680,respectively,P < 0.05).Conclusion Thymic peptide five might have the ability of improving the cellular immune function in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis and diabetes.The prognosis is better when T lymphocyte subsets CD4+ of patient was back to normal through treatment.

Objective: To evaluate the inhibitory effect of Yichuanping capsule (易喘平胶囊) on the airway mucus overproduction in asthmatic mice and its mechanism. Methods: Thirty-two male BALB/c mice were randomly divided into normal control group, asthma group, dexamethasone group and Yichuanping capsule (YC) group (n=8 in each group). Asthmatic mouse model was established by intraperitoneal injection of ovalbumin. The number of goblet cells and secretion of mucus were detected with periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) staining, and mucus protein MUC5AC mRNA was detected with reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RTCD*2PCR). Number of total cells and eosinophil in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) were counted with special staining. The contents of interleukinCD*24 (ILCD*24) and ?CD*2interferon (IFNCD*2?) in lung tissue were assessed by enzyme-linked immunoadsorbent assay (ELISA). Results: Compared with asthma group, the number of goblet cells, MUC5AC mRNA levels and secretion of mucus in airway were reduced in dexamethasone group and YC group(all P

BACKGROUND:To overcome the disadvantages of traditional mechanical analysis of specimens, and establish the finite element model of realistic foot, are the important basements for the finite element mechanical analysis on foot.
OBJECTIVE:To establish three-dimensional finite element model of foot and lay the foundation for the finite element analysis of normal foot and foot injury.
METHODS:A healthy female volunteer was involved in this study and was detected with spiral CT scanning on the feet. The resulting image was used to reconstruct the three-dimensional model by using Mimics software. Then entity model was generated in Geomagic software. Final y three-dimensional finite element model was established based on the digital main structure in Ansys. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The established finite element digital model of human foot included al bone, cartilage and ligament, skin and soft tissue. The three-dimensional finite element model of human foot was established based on CT data and using Mimics, Geomagic, Ansys softwares. The established model had similar size and shape with skeletal mode, and can rotate freely in any angle for a variety of measurement, the foot bones can be arbitrarily split or merge, which is suitable for biomechanical analysis.
