Objective:To study the expression of IFN-γ,IL-4 and IL-17 in peripheral blood of patients with oral lichen planus(OLP). Methods:The level of IFN-γ,IL-4 and IL-17 in peripheral blood were detected by ELISA in 60 OLP patients(including 30 erosive ca-ses and 30 non-erosive cases)and 25 healthy volunteers(controls).Data were statistically analyzed by SPSS 13.0.Results:(1 )The level of IFN-γin serum of patients with non-erosive OLP and erosive OLP were significantly lower than that in the controls(P<0.01);while the level of IL-4 in the patients were significantly higher than that in the controls(P<0.01),and the IFN-γ/IL-4 ratio in non-ero-sive OLP and erosive groups were significantly lower than that in the control group(P<0.01);(2)The level of IL-17 in erosive OLP pa-tients was significantly higher than that in the controls(P<0.05),while no statistical difference was seen between non-erosive OLP group and the control group(P>0.05).Conclusion:The down-regulated level of IFN-γand up-regulated level of IL-4,which result in the decrease of IFN-γ/IL-4 ratio,might be one of the immune etiological factors of OLP,while the up-regulated level of IL-17 protein in OLP may be mainly related with the inflammatory processes of OLP.

Objective To investigate the risk factors for deep vein thrombosis (DVT) of lower limbs after laparoscopic surgery.Methods A total of 230 patients underwent laparoscopic surgery were selected in Huanggang Central Hospital from January 2014 to August 2016.The patients were divided into DVT group and non-DVT group according to DVT of the lower limbs,and the related risk factors for DVT of lower limbs after laparoscopic surgery were analyzed.Results In the 230 patients,there were 10 patients with DVT of lower limbs and 220 patients without DVT of lower limbs,the incidence of DVT of lower limbs was 4.35％ (10/230).Logistic regression analysis showed that age ≥40 years old,operation time ≥120 min,postoperative ambulation time ≥ 30 h,the intraoperative position of high-head and low-foot,plasma D-Dimer level ≥0.5 mg · L-1 were the independent risk factors for DVT of lower limbs after laparoscopic surgery (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion There is a certain incidence of DVT of the lower limbs after laparoscopic surgery.The effective prevention measures should be taken to reduce the incidence of DVT after laparoscopic surgery according to the related factors of DVT.

Objective: To investigate the quality of life (QOL) and its influence factors in the scattered elderly in Shanghai, and to evaluate the effect of nutrition status on the QOL. Methods: Ninty-five randomly-selected elderly were investigated with QOL questionnaire, food frequency questionnaire and 24 h dietary recalls, their nutrition status were awarded by nutrient intake and medical examinations. Results: The percentage of poor, moderate and good QOL were 1.05%, 61.05% and 37.89%. The significant influence factors of QOL were health status, nutrition status, livelihood satisfaction, mentality health, family harmony, medical examination and income. The main nutrition intake of the 95 cases were sufficient, such as energy, protein, but the intake of diet fat and salt were overtaken. The rate of overweight and obesity were 26.3% and 40.0%. Conclusion: Nutrition status is the main influence factor of QOL in the elderly. To improve the QOL of the elderly, health education and balance nutrition guidance should be strengthened.

Objective To study the synthesis and degradation of collagen at the transcription level during liver fibrosis in rabbits with schistosomiasis japonica. Methods New Zealand rabbits infected with Schistosoma japonicum cercariae were served as animal models of liver fibrosis. The liver specimens were collected through operations at 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 20, 24 and 28 weeks after infection. TypeⅠcollagen, type Ⅲ collagen, type Ⅳ collagen, MMP\|1 and MMP\|9 mRNA levels of liver tissue were detected by RT\|PCR plus dot blotting, and the size of egg granulomas and the degree of liver fibrosis were measured by histopathological examinations. Results TypeⅠcollagen, type Ⅲ collagen, type Ⅳ collagen, MMP\|1 and MMP\|9 mRNA levels increased simultaneously in the early stage after the infection, mostly reaching their peaks at 10 weeks after infection. Compared with normal controls, type Ⅰ collagen, type Ⅲ collagen, type Ⅳ collagen, MMP\|1 and MMP\|9 mRNA levels increased by 12\^0 , 11\^0 , 6\^6 , 10\^0 and 11\^0\|fold, respectively, coinciding with the changes of egg granulomas. Thereafter, both collagen and collagenase mRNA levels decreased. TypesⅠ, Ⅲ and Ⅳ collagen mRNA levels declined to 2\|fold to 3\|fold compared with normal controls ( P 0\^05) at 28 weeks. This study showed that the synthesis and degradation of collagen remained dynamic balance in the early stage of schistosomiasis, while in the later stage the metabolism of collagen synthesis was higher than that of collagen degradation. Conclusion It was confirmed at the transcription level that when the metabolism of collagen synthesis was higher than that of collagen degradation in rabbits with schistosomiasis japonica, liver fibrosis might be produced.

No. Ⅱ fluorocarbon blood substitute in divided doses was infused into the rats in a 12-day-period. Pathomorphological changes of the various organs of the animals were observed dynamically in the first year after the completion of the infusion. Fluorocarbon particles mainly accumulated in the organs with abundant reticulo-endothelial tissue particularly the liver and spleen. The changes of the weight of the liver and spleen and the existence of foam cells could be considered as the criteria to indicate the severity of the accumulation. It was found that at the end of the first year after the completion of No. Ⅱ fluorocarbon blood substhue infusion, the liver and spleen essentially resumed their normal weight but a small number of foam cells still existed, However, accumulated fluorocarbon particles exerted no harmful effects on the functions and structures of the organs observed.

Objective To assess the effects of p27mt gene transfection on the proliferation and apoptosis of human hepatocellular carcinoma cell (HCC) lines SMMC-7721. Methods A replication deficient adenovirus vector encoding p27mt (Ad-p27mt) was used and p27mt cDNA was transfected into human SMMC-7721 cell lines in vitro. The synthesis of DNA in SMMC-7721 cells was determined by using 3H-thymidine incorporation; the cell apoptosis was determined by flow cytometry, TUNEL method and DNA fragmentation analysis. Results The virus titer was 7.95?1012 cfu/ml, the transduction efficiency was 100 % when multiplicity of infection ≥50, FCM analysis revealed a sub-G1 cell peak in Ad-p27mt transduced hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines. Agarose electrophoresis showed marked ladder .The difference of apoptotic index between the Ad-p27mt group and the control group was statistically significant (58.6?4.3, vs 4.5?1.6, P

Objective To compare different methods for developing rat model of the syndrome of cold fluid retention in lung ( CFRL) , so as to find an easier and more reliable modeling method for CFRL. Methods Twenty rats were divided into 4 groups, namely normal group, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) group, tobacco group, and cold bath group, 5 rats in each group. Lipopolysaccharide group was given intratracheal drip of LPS, tobacco smoking and cold bath, tobacco group was given tobacco smoking and cold bath, and cold bath group was given cold bath and intragastric gavage of cold water. The modeling time in the three groups lasted for 15 days. After the experiment, we compared the general health state, body weight, sputum volume and pathological changes in rats of the four groups. Results (1) Compared with the normal group, activities of rats in the three modeling groups were lowered, body temperature decreased, and the signs of panting, cyanotic nose and lips with excretion, and sneezing (cough) were obvious. (2) Compared with the normal group, the decrease of body weight was obvious (P<0.01), expelling sputum volume was increased (P<0.05) in the model groups. However, the differences among the three model groups had no statistical differences ( P>0.05). ( 3) The results of lung tissue slice examination showed that the injury of lung tissue was severe in LPS group, mild in tobacco group and slight in cold bath group. Conclusion Rat model of CFRL has been established successfully in all of the three modeling groups, and in consideration with all respects, the method for tobacco group is the best.

Objective To investigate the relationship between acute biliary pancreatitis (ABP) and anomalous pancreaticobiliary duetal union (APBDU). Methods 131 patients with ABP were enrolled to test the serum total bilirubin (TB), alanine amintransferase (ALT), aspartate amintransferase (AST), alkaline phosphates (ALP), γ-glutamyl transferase (γ-GT). All the patients received medical treatment, and then these tests were performed again. Thereafter, all the patients underwent selective surgery and intra-operative cholangiography was performed to observe the pancreaticobiliary duetal union. Results 27 patients (20.6%) with APBDU were found in 131 patients. Among them, 8 cases (29.6%) was B-P subtype (TypeⅠ), 16 cases (59.3%) was P-B subtype (TypeⅡ) , and the remaining 3 cases was mixed subtype (TypeⅢ). A significant decrease of ALT, AST, ALP, γ-GT after non-surgical treatment in both group of APBDU and NAPBDU was noted (P＜0.05). The serum levels of ALT, AST,γ-GT in APBDU patients were (71.81± 23.19) U/L, (47.85±27.87) U/L, (52.86±31.49) U/L, respectively; and in NAPBDU patients were (51.96±15.40) U/L, (40.77±16.58) U/L, (34.86±26.47) U/L. The difference was statistically significant (P＜0.05). Condusions APBDU is an important etiology of ABP.
