Objective To explore the risk factors of asthma in children with bronchiclitics.Methods One hundred and two cases hospita-lized patients with bronchiolitis were analyzed and followed-up for 2-7 years,items of follow-up included sex,morbidity age,food feeding,severity of disease,atopy physique,family history of atopy/asthma,environment exposure,passive smoking,and so on.The factors were carried on the Logistic regression analysis to determine the influence on later years to having recurrent asthma.Results Forty-seven cases had transferred asthma,which was remarkably higher than the domestic urban survey data(0.12%-3.34%).The multi-factors Logistic regression analysis demonstrated that environment(OR 6.099,95%CI 1.824～20.396),passive smoking(OR 49.222,95%CI 8.219-294.774),atopy physique (OR 45.548,95%CI 6.799-305.117)and family history of atopy/asthma(OR 47.921,95%CI 8.626-266.226)were the risk facter of asthma( Pa

AIM: To investigate the expression pattern of apolipoprotein M (apoM) protein in renal cortex of a-cute renal failure ( ARF) rats with reperfusion. METHODS: Seventy - five male rats were randomly divided into sham operation group (re =25) , ARF group (n =25) and pyrrolidine dithiocarbamat (PDTC) group (n =25) , five subgroups at time points of 3 h, 6 h, 12 h, 24 h and 48 h after reperfusion were set up in each group. The expressions of apoM in cytoplasm and NF - κB p65 in nucleus of renal cortex were detected at the indicated time points. RESULTS: The expression of apoM in ARF group was obviously higher than that in sham operation group ( P <0.01 ) , and two peaks were detected, the first peak was at 6 h after reperfusion, while the second one was from 24 h to 48 h. The tendency of apoM expression in PDTC group was similar to that in ARF group, while the expression in every subgroup was prevalently lower than that in ARF group (P < 0.01). Otherwise, a significant correlation ( r = 0.852, P < 0.01) was found between the expression of apoM and NF -κB p65.CONCLUSION: The results indicate that apoM feasibly take part in the pathogenesis of ARF through the inflammatory reaction mediated by NF - κB.

Objective To investigate the feasibility and the preliminary curative effect of the deep inferior epigagtrie perforator(DIEP)flap for child's foot and malleolus reconstruction.Methods A series of 5 child patients were treated with DIEP flap from August to December in 2007.All of them had foot and malleolus defects secondary to traumatic injuries and significant exposure of the tendons and skeleton.The maximum defect Wag 17 cm×6 em in size,the minimum defect Was 11 cm x 6 cm in size.In 2 eases,suture the inferior epigastric artery(vein)to the anterior tibial artery(vein).In 1 case,suture the inferior epigagtric artery(vein)to the dorsal artery (vein)of foot.In 2 cases,suture the inferior epigastric artery (vein)to the posterior tibial artery(vein).The minimum flap in size was 12 cm×7 cm.The maximum flap in size was 18 cm×7 cm.The donor site of the DIEP flaps Wag always closed primarily.Results Donorsite and receptor-site weIe primary healing in all patients.The mean follow-up was 3 months(range from 1to 5 months),all flaps survived with excellent color and quality,and no extremely fat contour.In 4 cases,a protective sensation Wag regained.The patient has obtained the good function of foot and malleohs.The abdomen contour resumes satisfaction, and the abdominal wall competency is preserved. Conclusion Abdominal wall competency is preserved because no muscle or fascia is included.DIEP flap is so thin that not required second-stage operation for debulking.In brief,it is believed that the DIEP flap is an ideal technique for foot and malleolus reconstruction of child patients, which meets the new concept of mieresurgery.

METHODS:Seventy-five male rats were randomly divided into sham operation group (n=25),ARF group (n=25) and pyrrolidine dithiocarbamat (PDTC) group (n=25),five subgroups at time points of 3 h,6 h,12 h,24 h and 48 h after reperfusion were set up in each group. The expressions of apoM in cytoplasm and NF-?B p65 in nucleus of renal cortex were detected at the indicated time points. RESULTS:The expression of apoM in ARF group was obviously higher than that in sham operation group (P

Objective To explore the changes of the plasma motilin(MTL)and serum gastrin(GAS)levels and their relationship with course of disease,the severity,the complication of digestive system in neonates with intracranial haemorrhage(ICH).Methods The objects were 26 cases of term newborns with ICH,the healthy control group contained 30 cases of healthy term newborns.Plasma motilin and serum gastrin concentration were measured by radioimmmunoassay in 26 cases of newborns with ICH in the 2 d,3-5 d,7-10 d,and 12-15 d after birth,and compared with the healthy control group.Results Compared with healthy control group,the blood GAS and MTL levels of neonatal ICH group increased dramatically(Pa

AIM: To evaluate the relationship between damages of visual field and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness in primary open angle glaucoma (POAG)with highly myopia. POAG with highly myopia group (21 eyes of 17 cases), POAG with non-highly myopia group (17 eyes of 16 cases), highly myopia without POAG group (25 eyes of 20 cases) and normal control group (19 eyes of 17 cases).automated perimeter and thickness of RNFL was measured by optical coherent tomography(OCT). Main outcome mean deviation (MD), pattern standard deviation (PSD) and mean sensitivity at superior, inferior, nasal and temporal sectors in total deviation probability plots. Thickness of RNFL at superior, inferior, nasal and temporal sector.total deviation probability plots of the early POAG with highly myopia than that of POAG without highly myopia,and the early visual field defects of glaucoma in pattern deviation probability plots of this group. MD of POAG with highly myopia was more than those of others (P＜0.05).The differences of MD, PSD and mean sensitivity between POAG with highly myopia and others were significant(P＜0.05).Mean sensitivities in each sector of POAG without highly myopia were similar to those of highly myopia(P＞0.05). The thickness of RNFL of POAG with highly myopia was thinner than that of others and the thickness of RNFL of normality was thicker than that of others. The relationship between mean sensitivity and the thickness of RNFL in each quadrant was significant(P＜0.05).judgment of the visual field changes in POAG with highly myopia. The relationship between RNFL thickness by OCT and visual field damage may provide clinically relevant information in diagnosis of POAG with highly myopia. Field; optical coherent tomography

AIM: To investigate the expression of EMMPRIN, MMP1, MMP9 and TIMP2 in retinoblastoma (RB) and normal retinal tissues and their clinicopathological significance and interrelationship.METHODS: Envision immunohistochemistry stainings of EMMPRIN, MMP1, MMP9 and TIMP2 were performed in 30 enucleated eyeballs with retinoblastoma and 15 specimens of normal retina tissue, which had been routinely imbedded with paraffin.RESULTS: Positive rate of EMMPRIN, MMP1, MMP9 expression was higher in RB tissue than in normal control (P<0.01), while TIMP2 expression was lower in RB than in normal retinal tissue (P<0.01). Samples from RB cases of clinical stage Ⅰ, differentiated type, and life span≥2 years had lower positive rate in expression of EMMPRIN, MMP1, MMP9 than those from RB cases of clinical stage Ⅲ, undifferentiated type, and life span<2 years (P<0.05 or P<0.01), while samples from RB cases of differentiated type, optic nerve unaffected, and life span≥2 years had markedly higher positive rate in expression of TIMP2 than those from RB cases of undifferentiated type, optic nerve involved and life span<2 years (P<0.05 or P<0.01). In RB tissues, EMMPRIN, MMP1, MMP9 expressions were highly consistent (P<0.05), whereas TIMP2 expression is highly inconsistent with EMMPRIN, MMP1, MMP9 expression levels (P<0.05).CONCLUSION: The expression level of EMMPRIN, MMP1, MMP9 and TIMP2 may be an important marker of RB progression, invasion and prognosis. There exist internally mutual regulation relations among them.
