Objective To explore the mechanism of cerebral infarction caused by hyperhomocystinemia.Methods A hundred and nineteen paitents with acute cerebral infarction were chosen for case group.According to their levels of plasm total homocystine,they were divided into two groups: hyperhomocystinemia group and nonhyperhomocystinemia group.Forty patents without cerebrovascular disease,hepatophy,nephrosis and thyroid gland disease were chosen as control subjects.Plasm levels of total homocystine,serum levels of MDA and IL-8 were measured respectively,their correlations were also studied.Results Plasma levels of tHcy(?mol/L)and serum levels of MDA(nmol/L)and IL-8 (ng/ml)showed a significant increase in case group(19.97,4.41?0.84,0.23?0.08)in comparison with control subjects(9.83,3.24?0.64,0.12?0.08),t values were 8.139,8.021,7.767 respectively(P

Objective:To study the effect of bronchoscope lavage on the inflammatory mediators and pulmonary function of patients with refractory pneumonia.Methods:100 cases of patients with refractory pneumonia who were treated in our hospital from January 2010 to December 2015 were selected and randomly divided into two groups,the control group was treated with routine clinical treatment,and the observation group was treated with bronchoscope lavage.The curative effect and the changes of inflammatory mediators and pulmonary function of the two groups after treatment were compared.Results:After treatment,the effective rate of observation group was 90.00%(45/50),which was significantly higher than that of the control group (76.00%,38/50) (P<0.05);the levels of endotoxin,IL-6,TNF-2 and LPO in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of both groups were significantly decreased (P<0.05),which were decreased more significantly in the observation group (P<0.05),the pulmonary function of both groups were significantly improved(P<0.05),which improved more significantly in the observation group(P<0.05).Conclusions:Bronchoscope lavage had good therapeutic effect on the patients with refractory pneumonia,it could effectively reduce the level of inflammatory mediators and improve the lung function.

Objective To explore the age related decline in spine muscle volume and fat content in healthy elderly males . Methods Totally 88 males aged 50-79 years were selected from the patients who underwent quantitative CT (QCT) exam of lum‐bar spine .They were subgrouped by 50- <60 years ,60- <70 years and 70-79 years .The muscle fat area ,skeletal muscular area , muscle fat infiltration (MFI) ,abdominal visceral fat volume and subcutaneous fat volume ,abdominal total fat volume were measured by the QCT software .Statistical analysis was performed using intraclass correlation coefficient ,ANOVA with post hoc Bonferroni correction ,Pearson correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis .Results Compared to other two groups ,subjects in 70-79 years subgroup had highest muscle fat area/MFI and least skeletal muscular mass(P<0 .05) .Age‐dependent correlation was found in muscle fat mass(r=0 .381 ,P<0 .05) and MFI(r=0 .358 ,P=0 .001) ,but no obvious correlation was found between age and skeletal muscular mass .Age was the only factor entered into the all three paravertebral muscle composition regression equations , meaning age may had an important influence on paravertebral muscle degeneration .Conclusion Lumbar paravertebral muscle de‐generation in elderly men is correlated with the aging and MFI ,which may play a important role in the normative age‐related decline of skeletal muscle .

Objective To explore the suicide ideation and related factors in elderly with depressive disorder.Methods A sample of 60 old patients meeting the criteria of ICD-10 for depressive disorder and 60 normal controls were assessed by the Self-rating Idea of Suicide Scale(SIOSS),Trait Coping Style Questionnaire (TCSQ),Self-Rating Anxiety Scale(SAS),Self-Rating Depression Scale(SDS) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI).Results The score of despair factor,optimistic factor,sleep factor,conceal factor and total score of SIOSS in patients with depressive disorders (6.22±3.28,2.43± 1.47,1.87± 1.58,1.17± 1.1 1 and 10.51±4.91,respectively) were significantly higher than those of normal controls(t=5.83-14.03,P<0.01).The scores of SIOSS in patients were significantly positively related with the scores of SAS,SDS,PSQI and N C (r=0.311-0.792,all P<0.05),but negatively related with the scores of PC(r=-0.761,P<0.01).Moreover,regression analysis showed that the suicide ideation was increased in accordance with serious depression,anxiety,sleep quality,higher level of education and decreased ability to positive response in elderly with depressive disorder(R 2=0.853,F=62.768,P<0.01).Conclusion The suicide ideation in elderly with depressive disorder is more serious than that of normal people,and may be influenced by depression,anxiety,sleep quality and coping style.

Objective: To evaluate the feasibility,the safety and the effect of early postoperative enteral nutrition in patients with esophageal cancer.Methods: On the first postoperative day,40 patients were randomly divided into two groups.One group was given isocaloric total parenteral nutrition through central vein(TPN group) and the other group was fed with enteral nutrition through nasoenteric tubes or jejunostomy tubes which were inserted during the operation(EEN group).All variables were measured before operation and on postoperative day 1 and 8.Blood was drawn at different time points to assess albumin,prealbumin and transferrin.Immune response was determined by immunoglobins,total lymphocytes,T-lymphocyte subsets and NK cells. Inflammatory response were determined by C-reactive protein,IL-6 and TNF-?.Morbidity,mortality and length of hospital stay were also evaluated. Results: Tolerance of enteral nutrition was excellent.Neither mortality nor serious morbidity occurred in all patients during the period of study.After the study,the levels of serum prealbumin,total lymphocytes,CD3,CD4 and CD4/CD8 ratio in the EEN group were significantly higher than the levels in the TPN group.The concentrations of IL-6 and the length of hospital stay in the EEN group were significantly lower than in the TPN group.Conclusion: Early postoperative enteral nutrition in patients with esophageal cancer is safe,and also has the benefit effects of enhancing the body status of nutrition and immune function,and reducing the inflammatory response and the length of hospital stay.

Purpose To study the expression of HNF-1β in different type ovarian carcinoma and to explore the diagnostic value of HNF-1β in the diagnosis of ovarian clear cell carcinoma. Methods Immunohistochemical EnVision method was used to detect the ex-pression of HNF-1βin 27 clear cell carcinomas, 35 high-grade serous carcinomas, 21 endometrioid adenocarcinoma, 10 mucious carci-nomas, 13 metastatic Krukenberg tumors, and 2 transitional carcinomas. Results All of ovarian clear cell carcinomas variably ex-pressed HNF-1β and the positive rate of HNF-1β in ovarian cleat cell carcinoma was 85. 2%. Of 21 ovarian serous carcinomas, the nuclear positive of HNF-1β was 4 and HNF-1βpositive rate was 2. 9%. There was 5 HNF-1βexpression in endometrioid adenocarci-noma and the positive rate of HNF-1β was 23. 8%. The positive rate of HNF-1β in mucious carcinoma and metastatic Krukenberg tumor was 60. 0% and 53. 8%, respectively. No HNF-1βexpression was seen in transtional cell carcinoma. The sensitivity and speci-ficity of HNF-1β in the diagnosis of ovarian clear cell carcinoma was 85. 2% and 76. 5%. Conclusions HNF-1β may be a higher sensitive marker for the diagnosis of ovarian clear cell carcinoma. The diffuse and strong positive of HNF-1βmay have higher specific for diagnosis of ovarian clear cell carcinoma.
