Objective To study the clinical significance of C-reactive protein(CRP),neutrophil granulocyte ratio(N% ) in acute exacerbations of hospitalized patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ( COPD ). Methods The serum CRP levels,the gross of N% were detected of the same 71 patients with acute exacerbations of COPD before treatment and after getting better. And the correlations among above-mentioned indexes,the days counter before getting better and the days counter during hospitalization were observed. Results (1) The levels of CRP and N% of patients after getting better were significantly lower than those before treatment(P <0. 01). (2) There was a significant correlation between N% and the days counter before getting better(r =0.240,P <0.05) and also a significant correlation between the days counter before getting better and the days counter during hospitalization (r = 0. 567, P <0.01). Conclusion The serum CRP level and N% were objective markers in estimating pulmonary infection in COPD patients with acute exacerbations. And N% was a reliable indicator of judging the days counter before getting better and better than CRP.
8.Atorvastatin reduces atherosclerosis in rabbits with hypercholesterolemia by inhibiting inflammatory response
International Journal of Cerebrovascular Diseases 2014;22(5):381-386
Objective To investigate the roles of interleuldn (IL)-17,IL-10,and matrix metalloproteinase12 (MMP-12) in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and further to understand the intervention mechanism of atorvastatin for atherosclerosis.Methods Eighteen Japanese white rabbits were randomly divided into 3 groups:control,model and intervention groups (n =6 in each group).The control group,model group and intervention group were fed basic diet,high-fat diet,and high-fat diet plus atorvastatin (5 mg/(kg·d),respectively for 12 weeks.The levels of serum total cholesterol (TC) and triglyceride (TG) were determined by enzymatic colorimetric method; the levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) were determined by selective precipitation method; the levels of IL-17,IL-10,and MMP-12 were measured by double antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA); the pathological morphology changes of atherosclerotic plaque was observe by HE staining; and the thickness of the intima,intima/media ratio,plaque area,and plaque proportion were calculated by image analysis software.Results The expression levels of serum TC,TG,LDL-C,and IL-17,as well as those of IL-17 and MMP-12 of the intervention group were significantly lower than those of the model group (all P <0.05),but they were still higher than the control group (all P <0.05),while there was no significant difference in the level of HDL-C.The level of serum IL-10 of the intervention group was higher than that of the model group and the control group (all P<0.05).The thickness of intima,intima/media ratio,plaque area,and plaque proportion of the intervention group were all significantly lower than those of the model group (all P <0.05).Correlation analysis showed that the plaque proportion was significantly positively correlated with IL-17 (r =0.847,P =0.001) and MMP-12 (r =0.839,P =0.001),and was negatively correlated with IL-10 (r =0.794,P =0.002); IL-17 was significantly positively correlated with MMP-12 (r =0.709,P=0.001),and was significantly negatively correlated with IL-10 (r =0.738,P<0.001).MMP-12 was significantly negatively correlated with IL-10 (r =0.563,P =0.015).Conclusion The increased levels of IL-17 and MMP-12,as well as the decreased level of IL-10 illustrate that inflammatory factors play an important pathological role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis.In addition to lipid-lowering effect,atorvastatin may decrease the degree of chronic arterial inflammatory response and play a role in anti-atherosclerosis by decreasing the expression of IL-17 and MMP-12,as well as increasing the expression of IL-10.
9.Long-term clinical efficacy of sublingual immunotherapy in children with allergic rhinitis.
Journal of Clinical Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery 2014;28(14):1011-1014
OBJECTIVE:
To evaluate the sustained efficacy of 2-year sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) and 1 year after 2-year SLIT in children with allergic rhinitis (AR).
METHOD:
This study is a randomized, open and prospective trial. One hundred twenty children (between 4 and 11 years old) suffering from AR duo to mite were chosen from November, 2008 to June, 2009 in department of otolaryngology in our hospital divided into two groups: 60 underwent 2-year course of SLIT and one year follow-up combined with 3-year drug therapy as SLIT group; 60 received only drug therapy as control group. The patients were evaluated at three time points (baseline, end of SLIT and 1 year after SLIT discontinuation) regarding symptom scores including total nasal symptom score (TNSS), sneezing, rhinorrhoea, nasal obstruction, nasal itching and total medication scores (TMS) and adverse reaction.
RESULT:
(1) At the end of SLIT, the symptom scores excepting sneezing and total medication scores in SLIT group are obviously lower than those in control group (P < 0.01). At 1 year after SLIT discontinuation, all of the score including sneezing (P < 0.05) in SLIT group are lower than those of control group. (2) At the end of SLIT and 1 year after SLIT discontinuation, all of the scores are lower than those at baseline in SLIT group (P < 0.01); the scores were no different in SLIT group between the end of SLIT and 1 year after SLIT discontinuation (P > 0.05). But at the end of SLIT and 1 year after SLIT discontinuation, TMS was higher than it at baseline in control group (P < 0.01). At 1 year after SLIT discontinuation, nasal obstruction score was higher than it at baseline (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION
SLIT can obviously improve the AR and the efficacy can sustain after 1-year SLIT discontinua tion. Drug increased in 3 years without SLIT.
