Objective To discuss the clinical effect of urinary kallikrein in the treatment of progressive cerebral infarction and its influence on hs -CRP.Methods 92 patients with progressive cerebral infarction were ran-domly divided into the observation group(n =46)and the control group(n =46)according to the digital table.The control group was treated with conventional therapy,the observation group was treated with urinary kallikrein based on the control group.The clinical effects and the influence on hs -CRP were compared between the two groups.Results The explicit efficiency and the effective rate of the observation group were 71.7% and 89.1%,which were significant-ly higher than 43.5% and 69.6% in the control group(χ2 =7.522 0,5.372 7,P <0.05 or P <0.01).After treat-ment,the hs -CRP levels in the two groups were (11.79 ±3.92)mmol/L and (10.04 ±3.90)mmol/L,which were significantly lower than (13.48 ±3.89)mmol/L and (13.54 ±3.93)mmol/L before the treatment(t =4.287 4, 2.075 5,P <0.05 or P <0.01),and hs -CRP of the observation group was significantly lower than the control group (t =2.146 5,P <0.05).After treatment,NIHSS scores in the two groups were (9.91 ±4.35)points and (6.82 ± 4.32)points,which were significantly lower than (15.39 ±4.34)points and (15.43 ±4.37)points before treatment (t =6.048 6,9.503 2,all P <0.01 ),and NIHSS score of the observation group was significantly better than the control group(t =3.418 5,P <0.01 ).After treatment,the Barthel in the two groups were (53.87 ±18.12)and (68.21 ±18.14),which were significantly higher than (34.35 ±18.08)and (34.42 ±18.11 )before treatment (t =5.172 1,8.943 4,all P <0.01),and Barthel of the observation group was significantly better than the control group(t =3.793 3,P <0.01).There was no obvious adverse reactions and side effects in the treatment.Conclusion Urinary kallikrein can effectively improve the local blood flow perfusion,restore nerve function damage and improve the living ability of the patients in the treatment of progressive cerebral infarction,it has curative effect,and it's safe and reliable,which is worthy of promotion.

Objective To determine the coagulation status as well as circulating levels of complement and inflammation markers in patients with chronic urticaria (CU) during acute attack and in remission,and to estimate the relationship of coagulant and anticoagulant factors as well as fibrinolytic markers with the development of chronic urticaira.Methods This study included 40 patients with CU (22 during acute attack and 18 in remission) and 40 healthy blood donors from the Guangzhou Blood Center.Venous blood samples were obtained from these subjects,and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was performed to measure the plasma levels of prothrombin fragrnent 1 +2 (F1 +2),tissue factor (TF),thrombomodulin (TM),high molecular weight kininogen (HMWK),tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA),C5a and serum levels of C3,C4,antistreptolysin O antibodies (ASO),rheumatoid factor (RF) and C-reactive protein (CRP).Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) was also determined in these patients.Comparisons of these parameters were carried out by using t test,and the correlation of these factors with CU was evaluated by using Spearman correlation coefficient.Results Compared with the healthy controls,the patients with CU showed significantly higher plasma levels of F1+2 and HMWK (both P ＜ 0.01),but lower levels of TF,TM and t-PA (all P ＜ 0.01).The plasma levels of F1 +2,HMWK,t-PA were significantly correlated with the symptom scores in patients with CU (r =0.81,P ＜ 0.01; r =-0.39,P ＜ 0.05; r =0.35,P ＜ 0.05).A significant increase was observed in the plasma concentration of F1 +2 in patients during acute attack compared with those in remission (P ＜ 0.01),whereas no significant differences were noted in the plasma levels of TF,TM,HMWK,t-PA,C5a,serum levels of C3,C4,ASO,RF and CRP or ESR between the two groups of patients (all P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions It seems that coagulation,anti-coagulation and fibrinolysis are all involved in the development of urticaria.There is an obvious difference in the plasma level of prothrombin F1 +2 between patients with CU during acute attack and in remission,suggesting that coagulation factors play a certain role in the initiation and progression of CU.

Objective To evaluate the relationship of clinical symptom to plasmic levels of D-dimer, activated factorⅦ (FⅦa) and tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI)/X a in patients with urticaria. Methods A total of 27 patients with chronic urticaria (CU), 27 patients with acute urticaria (AU) and 26 normal human controls were included in this study. Symptom score was determined and disease course was surveyed in these patients. ELISA was used to detect the plasma levels of D-dimer, FⅦa and (TFPI)/Xa in patients and controls. The relation of clinical symptom and disease course to plasma levels of these parameters was assessed. Results In patients with AU and normal controls, the plasma level of D-dimer was 450.57± 242.13 ng/mL and 266.81±40.68 ng/mL, respectively, the level of FⅦa, 2.23± 0.74 ng/mL and 5.23±1.35 ng/mL, respectively, and the level of TFPI/Xa 0.87±0.13 nmol/L and 0.88 ~ 0.12 nmol/L, respectively. There was a significant difference in the level of both D-dimer and FⅦa (both P < 0.01 ), whereas no differ-ence was observed in that of TFPI/X a (P > 0.05) between patients with AU and normal controls. In addi-tion, increased level of D-dimer and decreased level of FⅦa were noticed in patients with CU compared with those in normal controls (593.80±294.04 ng/mL vs 266.81±40.68 ng/mL, 3.98±0.35 ng/mL vs 5.23± 1.35 ng/mL, both P < 0.01 ), but there was no significant difference in the plasma level of TFPI/Xa (0.87± 0.16 nmol/L vs 0.88±0.12 nmol/L, P > 0.05). Significant difference was observed in the plasma level of D-dimer and FⅦa between patients with AU and CU (450.57±242.13 ng/mL vs 593.80 ±294.04 ng/mL, P < 0.05; 2.23± 0.74 ng/mL vs 3.98± 0.35 ng/mL, P<0.01 ). The plasma level of D-dimer positively corre-lated to the symptom score of patients with CU and those with AU (r= 0.68, P< 0.01; r= 0.82, P< 0.01),but was independent of discase course (P> 0.05). Neither the level of FⅦa nor that of TFPI/Xa correlated to symptom score or disease course of patients (all P > 0.05). Conclusions There is an overactivation of coagulation cascade, consumption of blood coagulation factors and secondary fibrinolysis in patients with urticaria, suggesting that plasma D-dimer and FⅦa may be associated with the clinical symptoms of urticaria.

Objective To investigate the role of ATP￣binding cassette ( ABC ) family on the resistance of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) stem cells (CSCs) to cisplatin. Methods We compared the differences between the drug extravasation capability of CNE￣2 and CNE￣2S by using Rhodamine￣123 efflux assay. We determined the mRNA and protein expression levels of ABC transport family members, including ABCA3,ABCB1,ABCB5,ABCC1,ABCC2 and ABCG2,after 48 h being treated with 1 μmol.L-1 cisplatin by RT￣PC and Western blotting.Rhoamine￣123 efflux and apoptosis by cisplatin in two kinds of cells was examined by ABCA3 gene silencing with specific small￣interfering RNA. Results The IC50 of cisplatin on CNE￣2S was 4.1 fold to that on CNE￣2(P<0.05).For the relative drug effluent activity and Na+K+ ATPase activity,CNE￣2S was 4.8 fold to CNE￣2(P<0.05),suggested that CNE￣2S expressed more ABCA3,ABCB1,ABCC1 and ABCG2 in comparison to CNE￣2(P<0.05).After 48 h treatment with 1 μmol.L-1 cisplatin,ABCA3 specifically highly expressed in CNE￣2S (P<0.05), and knocking down of ABCA3 resulted in reduction of rhodamine￣123 efflux and increase of apoptosis. Conclusion The cisplatin resistance of NPC CSCs is associated with enhanced expression of ABCA3,ABCC1 and ABCG2, suppression of ABCA3 could reverse the resistance of NPC CSCs to cisplatin.

Objective To construct human canstatin gene eukaryotic expression vector and investigate the therapeutic effect of intramuscular canstatin gene delivered by electroporation on tumor growth.Methods Canstatin cDNA was amplified from total RNA extracted from fresh fetal liver by reversing transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).The canstatin cDNA fragment was in serted into pEGFP-N1 eukaryotic expression vector.The recombination plasmid was delivered to the quadriceps of the mice with Lewis lung carcinomas by electroporation intramuscular.Fluorescence intension measured by fluorescence microscope,reverse-PCR assay,and immunohistochemistry assay were performed to detect the expression of canstatin gene in the muscle and in circulation.The tumor weight and volume were used to detect the biological effects of canstatin gene delivery.Results Recombinant eukaryotic expression vector of recombinant human canstatin was successfully constructed.The canstatin mRNA was significantly increased in the skeletal muscle and intramuscular delivery of canatatin gene by electroporation acquired the expression of enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP)/canstatin protein in the circulation and significantly inhibited tumor growth.The percent of the inhibition of tumor weight was 57.7 ％.Conclusions Electroporation mediated gene transfer efficiency in skeletal muscle was compared to simple plasmid injection and lasted for a long time.It was an efficient and safe,convenient and economic,gene transfer methods and might have certain clinical application value.Electroporation mediated canstatin gene transfer in skeletal muscle had obvious inhibitory effect on Lewis lung cancer in mice subcutaneous xenograft tumor growth.

Objective To investigate the way that nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) and NPC stem cells develops resistance to cisplatin through anti-reactive oxygen species mechanism. Methods Using CCK-8 cell counting kit, we measured the half inhibitory concentration of cisplatin against NPC cellsCNE-2and NPC stem cellsCNE-2S, and compared their resistant index. We examined the differences in the reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, total glutathi?one (GSH) levels, and total superoxide dismutase (SOD) levels between CNE-2 and CNE-2S at different concentrations of cisplatin administration (0.1,0.5 and 1.0μmol·L-1). Using q-PCR, we determined the mRNA expression level of GSS, GCLC, GCLM, SOD1 and SOD2 after 48 hours administration of cisplatin at 1 μmol · L-1. Protein expression level of SOD2 was also tested using Western Blot after 48 hours administration of cisplatin at 1μmol · L-1. Upon silencing the SOD2 in NPC cell through siRNA, Trypan blue was used to analyze cell survival after cisplatin was administrated at 1μmol · L-1. Results The inhibition concentration of cisplatin against CNE-2 was higher than that against CNE-2S (μmol · L-1:9.8 ± 1.1 vs 2.4 ± 0.6,P<0.05). ROS levels in CNE-2 and CNE-2S both rise with cisplatin administration, but ROS levels of CNE-2 before and after cisplatin treatment were both higher than those in CNE-2S (P<0.05). The total gluta?thione levels in CNE-2 and CNE-2S were both increased after 1μmol·L-1 cisplatin treatment but there is no significant dif?ference in levels of glutathione between these two cell lines. After treated with cisplatin, SOD level were increased in both CNE-2S and CNE-2, but it is higher in CNE-2S than that in CNE-2 (P<0.05). The mRNA levels of GSS, GCLC, GCLM, and SOD1 were not different significantly between in CNE-2 and in CNE-2S with or without cisplatin treatment. However, SOD2 in CNE-2S were higher than that in CNE-2 on both mRNA and protein levels (P<0.05). Silenced SOD2 disrupted the resistance of cisplatin in CNE-2S. Conclusion These data suggest that NPC stem cells (CNE-2S) enhance its drug re?sistance to cisplatin through highly expression of SOD2 which posed anti-ROS capacity.

Based on the requirements of military professional education reform and in view of the problems existing in the operation and maintenance of first-aid medical equipment in grass-roots forces. We put forward a construction scheme of online course which named operation and maintenance of first-aid medical equipment in grass-roots forces, and then expound the scheme from teaching content construction and teaching mode construction. The teaching content construction consists of two parts: the management theory of conventional medical equipments and the operation and maintenance teaching of specific first-aid medical equipments. In the construction of teaching mode, we elaborate on the organization forms of teaching, answering questions, training and examination units in detail. The design scheme of the online course is in line with the learning characteristics and meets the demand of learning the knowledge of the operation and maintenance of first-aid medical equipment systematically, so as to improve the post competency of the grass-roots forces.

Objective:To investigate the self-defect sensation and its influencing factors in patients scheduled for photodynamic therapy for port wine stains.Methods:A total of 183 patients scheduled for photodynamic therapy for port wine stains in our hospital were selected and investigated by online questionnaire. The data of the respondents were collected by means of online filling in the questionnaire star using the General Data Survey Scale and the Defect Perception Scale (FIS) at admission.Results:The total score of self-defect in 183 patients with bright red nevus treated by photodynamic therapy was higher than that of the domestic norm. Age ( t=4.19), place of residence ( F=14.90), co-resident ( F=3.21), education level ( F=4.39), marital status ( F=2.47), income level ( F=9.51) and occupation ( F=5.82) had significantly related with the level of self-deficiency of patients ( P<0.05). The results of multiple linear regression analysis indicated that residence and income level were the main factors affecting patients′ sense of self-deficiency ( F=4.96, P<0.05). Conclusions:The overall self-defect sense of 183 patients with port wine stains treated with photodynamic therapy in this survey is more serious, their own comprehensive conditions and family structure will affect the self-defect sense of patients with port wine stains. We should pay special attention to the mental health of patients from municipal cities and low-income levels, timely carry out clinical nursing education and psychological guidance, jointly improve the compliance and cooperation of patients with treatment, and promote the rapid recovery of patients.

Objective: To investigate the initial HRCT manifestations and clinical features of imported novel coronavirus pneumonia (NCP) in Guangzhou. Methods: A retrospective analysis of 91 NCP patients admitted to the Guangzhou Eighth People’s Hospital from January 22 to 30, 2020 was performed including 39 males and 52 females, with a median age of 50 (33-62) years, then their clinical features and HRCT characteristics were analyzed. Results: The main clinical presentations included fever in 70 cases and cough in 57 cases(mainly dry coughin39 cases). The first time HRCT showed that 24 cases with NCP were normal, however other 67 cases were abnormal. The ground glass opacity in the lung on HRCT was found in 65 cases, including 64 cases with dilated blood vessel crossing the lesion, 50 cases with thickened adjacent pleura, and 47 cases with thickening of interstitial septum. The patchy opacity was seen in 42 cases, and no enlarged lymph nodes were observed in all patients. As for the lesion distribution, there were two cases with bilateral diffuse changes, 57 cases with multiple lesions, 8 cases with the lesion in only one lobe. The lesions were mainly located under the pleura area in 46 cases, including 39 cases in the lower lobe and other 7 cases in the upper lobe. And there were 13 cases without characteristic distribution in the lung. Conclusions The initial images of NCP in Guangzhou mainly showed multiple ground glass opacity, which were mostly seen in the subpleural and lower lung fields, most of them with thickened pulmonary interstitium. Guangzhou has a higher proportion of NCP patients with mild and general patients, and some confirmed patients show negative HRCT for the first time. Patients without HRCT changes should be reviewed in a timely manner.
