Objective To investigate the effect and mechanism of compound glycyrrhizin on airway inflammation in asthmatic rats. Methods Forty wistar rats were randomly divided into health group (group Ⅰ), asthma group(group Ⅱ), treating group (group Ⅲ) and treating control group (group Ⅳ) (n=10 in each group). Group Ⅱ, group Ⅲ and group Ⅳ received intraperitoneal injection of ovalbumin (OVA) and aluminum hydroxide gel for sensitization and OVA aerosol by ultrasonic nebulization for challenge, in addition, group Ⅲ re-ceived intraperioneal injection of 200 μg of compound glycyrrhizin 1 hour before OVA aerosol challenging every time, and group Ⅳ were in-jected with normal saline instead of compound glycyrrhizin. Group Ⅰ were injected and nebulizated with normal saline instead of OVA and alu-minlum hydroxide. All rats were sacrificed at the 6th hour after the last challenging, venous blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF) were collected, the IgE in venous blood were determined and the concentration of IL-4, IL-5, IL-13 and IFN-γ in BALF were detected, the cells in BALF were counted and detached. Results The concentration of IgE, IL-4, IL-5, IL-13 and the count of neutrophilic granulocytcs, lymphocytes, cosinophils in group Ⅱ were significantly higher than those in group Ⅰ and group Ⅲ(P<0.01), and the concentration of IFN-γ in group Ⅰ and group Ⅳ were significantly lower than those in group Ⅰ and group Ⅲ(P <0.01). There was no significant difference be-tween group Ⅱ and group Ⅳ(P >0. 05). The concentration of IgE, IL-4, IL-5, IL-13 and the count of neutrophilic granulocytes, lympho-cytes, cosinophils in group Ⅲ were higher than those in group Ⅰ, and the concentration of IFN-γ and the count of mononucleat macroplile cells in group Ⅲ were lower than those in group Ⅰ, but there were no significant difference(P>0.05). Conclusion Compound giycyrrhiz-in alleviated the airway inflammation and reduced the airway hyperresponsiveness in asthmatic rats, which mechanism may be related to regu-lating the balance of Th1/Th2 cytokines, suppressing the immune ability of Th2 and promoting the immune ability of Th1.

Objective To detect the frequency of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes(fMNPCE) in mice bone marrow after irradiated with X-ray by flow cytometer(FCM) to study whether fMNPCE detecting method could become a rapid biodosimeter for early radiation damage. Methods BALB/c mice were randomly assigned to receive the X-ray irradiation at dose of 0.5,3.0,6.0 Gy(n=4 for each irradiation dose),and the bone marrow was collected in 6,12,24 h after irradiation.Another 4 mice were intraperitoneally injected with cyclophosphamide twice as positive control,of which the bone marrow was collected in 42 h after intoxication began and 4 treated with spurious radiation as normal control.Results fMNPCE in mice bone marrow increased remarkably in 24 h after exposure to 0.5 Gy X-ray(P

Purpose To observe white matter structure features of patients with early stage (Hoehn-Yahr 1-2 phase) Parkinson''s disease (PD) by using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) based on the fiber bundle analysis tract-based spatial statistics (TBSS); and to explore the brain regions of PD patients in which DTI parameters are significantly correlated with unified Parkinson''s disease rating scale (UPDRS) score elevation. Materials and Methods DTI sequence was performed on 27 cases of PD and 30 cases of healthy volunteers. DTI parameters including fractional anisotropy (FA), mean diffusivity (MD), axial diffusivity (AD), and radial diffusivity (RD) were analyzed in all participants by using TBSS technique, and the parameters of two groups were compared. The correlation of clinical UPDRS score with FA value, MD and RD value in the PD group were analyzed.Results Compared with that in the control group, FA values of several brain regions in PD group decreased, while MD and RD value increased (P<0.05). AD showed no obvious change (P>0.05). UPDRS score of PD group was correlated with FA, MD and RD value (P=0.001). The brain regions that showed FA value decreased, MD and RD value increased included corpus callosum, left anterior limb of internal capsule, bilateral anterior radial crown, bilateral superior radial crown and left posterior thalamic radiation (P=0.001).Conclusion There is some changes in white matter structure of the patients with early stage Parkinson''s disease, which may due to demyelination or fiber integrity damaged.

Objective To explore the clinical significance of detecting homocysteine (Hcy), C-reactive protein (CRP)and ankle brachial index (ABI)in elderly patients with lower limb artherosclerosis.Methods A total of 85 elderly patients with lower limb artherosclerosis in our hos-pital from Feb.2007 to Oct.2010 were divided into plaque group (37 cases)and non-plaque group (48 cases)according to the intima-media thickness (IMT)detected with ultra-sound.And another 40 elderly patients with non-lower limb artherosclerosis served as control group.Hcy,hs-CRP and ABI characteristics were retrospectively analyzed among 3 groups and cardiovascular events were compared between plaque and non-plaque groups.Results Hcy and hs-CRP expression levels de-creased gradually whereas ABI increased gradually and there were significant differences among 3 groups (P <0.05 or P <0.01).The rates of cardiovascular events of plaque and non-plaque groups were 10.81% (4 /37)and 4.17% (2 /48),respectively,but the difference was not statistically sig-nificant (P >0.05).Conclusion Elderly patients with lower limb artherosclerosis have abnormal Hcy metabolism,and increased CRP expression and decreased ABI value can provide significant ref-erences for clinical diagnosis.

Objective To evaluate the safety and curative effect of nanoknife ablation in the treatment of unresectable hilar cholangiocarcinoma.Methods 15 patients with unresectable hilar cholangiocarcinoma received nanoknife ablation treatment from March 2016 to May 2017.The clinical variables of the patients before and after operation were analyzed.Results The operations in all the patients carred out successfully.Cardiac arrhythmia occurred in some patients during the operation accidentally.The level of CA19-9 increased significantly on postoperative day 1,3 and then gradually decreased in 13 patients;one patient had no significant change of CA19-9,and the data for another patient was always in the normal range.The liver function of all patients gradually improved after operation,and the level of total bilirubin,AST and ALT showed a downward trend.The myocardial enzyme in all the patients increased on postoperative day 1,then returned to normal within the following 5 days.Postoperative complications included atrial fibrillation (1 case),upper gastrointestinal bleeding (1 case).The recanalization rates of the bile duct at 2 weeks,1 month,and 2 months after surgery were 66.6％,86.6％,and 93.3％,respectively.Conclusion Nanoknife ablation has superior safety,noteworthy efficacy and less complications in the treatment of the unresectable hilar cholangiocarcinoma in the short term.

Objective:To study the role of neonatal panel detection based on next generation sequencing (NGS) combined with multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) in the etiological differentiation of neonatal hypotonia.Methods:The clinical characteristics and gene test results of newborns with hypotonia as the main clinical manifestation treated at the Department of Neonatology of Jiangxi Provincial Children's Hospital from March 2017 to March 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.Results:A total of 23 children with hypotonia and feeding difficulties diagnosed by gene tests were included. 17 cases (73.9%) had obvious abnormal appearance, and 11 cases (47.8%) had congenital heart disease (atrial septal defect and/or patent ductus arteriosus). Among the 23 infants, 21 were detected by panel gene, 10 by methylation specific MLPA (MS-MLPA) and 4 by MLPA (SMN1 / SMN2). 14 cases of Prader-Willi syndrome, 4 cases of spinal muscular atrophy, 3 cases of congenital myopathy and 2 cases of Schaaf-Yang syndrome were diagnosed. 11 cases died (47.8%), 9 cases had growth retardation (39.1%), 2 cases had normal growth and development (8.7%), and 1 case survived without detailed information (4.3%). Newborns with unknown etiology and low muscle tone are often complicated with abnormal appearance and congenital heart disease. Neonatal panel combined with MLPA is helpful for accurate diagnosis.Conclusions:The detection of neonatal panel combined with MLPA is cheap, and can provide accurate diagnosis for most newborns with unexplained hypotonia in a short diagnosis cycle, which is conducive to the early formulation of clinical decision-making, and guide the treatment, follow-up and genetic consultation of children.

Objective:To analyze the correlation between 1H-MRS in hippocampus and peripheral blood cytokines and T lymphocyte subsets in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy, and to explore the relationship between immune dysfunction and the degree of neuronal injury. Methods:Fifty patients with temporal lobe epilepsy were selected from Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from October 2020 to July 2021.Clinical data of all patients were collected and they were divided into two groups according to MRI results of epileptic sequence: abnormal hippocampal MRI group ( n=20) and normal hippocampal MRI group ( n=30). Bilateral 1H-MRS scanning of hippocampal and detection of T lymphocyte subsets and cytokines in peripheral blood during interictal period were performed in both groups. The levels of hippocampal metabolites NAA, NAA/(Cr+ Cho), T lymphocyte subsets and cytokines in peripheral blood of the two groups were compared.At the same time, the levels of NAA and NAA/ (Cr+ Cho) in the hippocampus on the abnormal side and the normal side in the abnormal hippocampal MRI group were compared within the group. Finally, the correlation between the levels of metabolites NAA, NAA/ (Cr+ Cho) in the hippocampus on the abnormal side obtained by 1H-MRS scanning and T lymphocyte subsets and cytokines in the abnormal group of MRI was analyzed. The data were statistically analyzed by SPSS 26.0 software. Independent sample t-test or Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison between the two groups. Paired sample t-test was used for intra group comparison of different sides. Spearman correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between each index. Results:The NAA and NAA/(Cr+ Cho) values of the abnormal MRI group(normal side NAA: (1.22±0.37), NAA/(Cr+ Cho): (0.56±0.15). abnormal side NAA: (1.02±0.34), NAA/(Cr+ Cho): (0.48±0.13)) were significantly lower than those of the normal MRI group (NAA: (1.51±0.36), NAA/(Cr+ Cho): (0.73±0.19))(NAA: t=2.705, 4.800, both P<0 05; NAA/(Cr+ Cho): t=3.394, 4.914, both P<0 05). The values of NAA and NAA/(Cr+ Cho) in the abnormal side in the MRI abnormal group were significantly lower than those in the normal side( t=6.467, P<0 05). The levels of IL-1β(11.19(3.56, 20.98)pg/ml), IL-5 (3.12(1.86, 6.41)pg/ml), TNF-α(2.55(1.19, 8.28)pg/ml), CD4+ T lymphocytes((43.13±6.82)%) and Th/Ts((1.96±0.66)) in the hippocampal MRI abnormal group were significantly higher than those in normal MRI group (IL-1β: 3.27(1.63, 6.17)pg/ml, IL-5: 1.15(0.96, 2.96)pg/ml, TNF-α: 1.34(1.02, 2.36)pg/ml, CD4+ T: (38.01±7.21)%, Th/Ts: (1.48±0.53))( Z=-3.041, -2.516, -2.496, all P<0.05; t=2.511, 2.810, both P<0 05). The level of CD8+ T ((23.48±5.33)%) in peripheral blood of abnormal MRI group was significantly lower than that of normal group CD8+ T((27.18±6.08)%)( t=2.210, P<0.05). In the abnormal MRI group, the levels of NAA and NAA/ (Cr+ Cho) in the abnormal hippocampus were negatively correlated with the levels of IL-1β, IL-5 and TNF- α ( r=-0.612--0.463, all P<0.05), and positively correlated with CD8+ T lymphocytes ( r=0.537, 0.478, P<0.05). Conclusion:There is neuronal damage and dysfunction in the abnormal hippocampal region of patients with temporal lobe epilepsy with abnormal hippocampal formation, and the degree of neuronal damage is highly correlated with CD8+ T lymphocytes, IL-5, IL-1β and TNF-α in peripheral blood. The imbalance of interictal lymphocyte subsets and chronic inflammatory response may play an important role in the pathogenesis of epilepsy and neuronal injury .

Objective:To study the complications of irreversible electroporation (nano-knife) ablation on locally advanced pancreatic cancer, and to analyse the causes of complications and related treatment.Methods:The clinical data of 36 patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer treated with nano-knife ablation at the Fifth Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2016 to March 2019 were studied retrospectively. The types and incidence of postoperative complications were analyzed. The complications were classified according to the Clavien-Dindo classification, and the severity of the complications was evaluated.Results:There were 15 patients (41.7%) who developed various degrees of complications, including splenic infarction, atrial fibrillation, portal vein thrombosis, pancreatic fistula, pseudoaneurysm, gastrointestinal bleeding, liver abscess and severe pancreatitis. Among them, 6 patients (16.7%) had grade III complication or above. Three (8.3%) patients with grade Ⅲ complications died of upper gastrointestinal bleeding 3 months after operation.Conclusions:Various complications might occur after nano-knife ablation, with postoperative gastrointestinal and abdominal bleeding being the main complications which resulted in death. Measures which can effectively reduce occurrence of complications need to be studied.
