Objective To evaluate the clinical,epidemiological,and viral molecular biology features of 26 patients infected with H7N9 avian influenza A virus. Methods Clinical and epidemiological data of 26 patients with con-firmed avian influenza A (H7N9)infection in 2013 and 2014 were collected,virus isolated from human and poultry were identified and typed through sequencing.Results Of 26 patients,fever and cough were the most common symptoms,all patients had pneumonia;20 patients (76. 92% )developed acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS);25 patients (96.15% )had leucopenia or normal leukocytes at the initial diagnosis;treatment with antivi-ral drugs was initiated in 25 patients at a median of 10 days after the onset of illness;10 patients (38.46% )died. Gene sequencing indicated Gln226Leu and Gly186Val substitutions in human virus H7 gene and the PB2 Asp701Asn mutation. Conclusion Acute respiratory system damage is the main clinical manifestation of avian influenza (H7N9)virus infection in humans,live poultry exposure is an important risk factor for H7N9 infection in humans, adaptive mutation occurred at partial site of avian virus gene,which can be more easily be spread from birds to hu-man and cause serious diseases,it is necessary to strengthen the pathogen monitoring.

Objective To study the effect of electrical stimulation of the fastigial nucleus of the cerebellum (FNS) on learning,memory and the expression of growth-association protein-43 (GAP-43) after cerebral ischemia and reperfusion.Methods Sixty healthy,adult,male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into a normal group,a sham-operation group (sham group),a model group and an FNS group,with 15 rats in each.Left middle cerebral artery occlusion and reperfusion (MCAO/R) was administered to the rats in the FNS and model groups using the thread embolism method.The rats of the FNS group were given FNS treatment using a pair of needle electrodes inserted into the cerebellar fastigial nucleus 3hrs after the MCAO/R.Needle electrodes were similarly inserted in the model group rats,but no electrical stimulus was applied.Then the rats' learning and memory abilities were tested using a Morris water maze on days 1,3 and 7 after the MCAO/R modeling.The expression of GAP-43 mRNA on the side of the cerebral infarction was detected using a quantitative,real-time polymerase chain reaction.Results The average escape]atencies of the rats in the model and FNS groups were significantly longer than those of the normal and sham groups at all time points,but the FNS group rats demonstrated a significantly shorter average escape latency than the rats of the model group at each time point.The normal and sham groups showed a significantly lower expression of GAP-43 mRNA than the model and FNS group rats at all time points.The FNS group rats had a significantly higher level of GAP-43 mRNA than the rats of the model group.Conclusion FNS improved the rats' learning and memory abilities.This might be associated with the up-regulation of GAP-43 mRNA in neurons on the side of the cerebral infarction which could promote the regeneration and repair of peripheral nerve axons in the area of the infarction.

Smoking and exposure to second hand smoke are the deadly killer of human health. Tobacco kills more than one million people each year in China. According to 2015 Chinese adult tobacco survey, the number of smokers in China increased by 15 million during five years, from 301 million in 2010 to 316 million in 2015. Smoking addiction is a chronic recurrent disease, and its pathogenesis is associated with the mesolimbic dopamine system. In recent years, domestic and overseas scholars studied the brain function of smoking addicts through resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), and found that the brain functional activity of smoking addicts has changed. fMRI can help us understand the mechanism of tobacco dependence, and provide the evidence of diagnosis, treatment and health management of tobacco dependence. In this paper, the present study situation and the application in the field of the treatment and management of smoking cessation of fMRI in smoking addicts are reviewed.

Objective To compare the effectiveness and safety of continuous and intermittent ice compression therapy following total knee arthroplasty surgery. Methods Eighty patients were divided into two groups receiving continuous or intermittent 30 minutes every 2 two hours within 48 hours after the operation. The subjective pain (VAS score), additional pain-killer use, swelling of extremity, drainage, range of motion were observed and compared. Results Patients in the observation group had less pain than those in the control group (Z values in the first 3 postoperative day was-2.722,-3.359,-2.039, respectively, P<0.05). Less pain-killers were required in the experimental group (Z=-2.559, P<0.05). The postoperative swelling by the thigh circumferences in the first day in the observation group was (1.84 ± 1.11) cm, which was milder than the (3.30 ± 1.69) cm of the control group (t=4.565, P<0.01). So was it in the calf circumferences, (0.94 ± 0.89 ) cm vs. (1.46 ± 0.91) cm (t=2.627, P=0.01). Within the first 3 days after the operation, this mildness still existed in aspect of thigh circumferences, which was (3.09±1.39) cm in the observation group vs the (4.09 ± 1.71) cm in the control group, t=2.869, P < 0.01. Conclusions Continuous ice compression therapy has better effects than intermittent 48 hours after total knee replacement, with functional training and exercise not disturbed. It is considered safe and assured, and is therefore recommended.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of Saccharomyces boulardii adjuvant with aluminium phosphate on symp-toms and signs disappearance time,immune function and inflammatory factors in children with acute diarrhea. METHODS:Totally 110 children with acute diarrhea were chosen from our hospital during Mar. 2013-Mar. 2016,and then randomly divided into con-trol group and observation group according to random number table,with 55 cases in each group. Control group was given Alumini-um phosphate gel 2.5 g,po,qd,on the basis of conventional treatment. Observation group was additionally given S. boulardii cap-sules 0.25 g,po,bid,on the basis of control group. Both groups were treated for 3 d. Clinical efficacies,symptoms and signs(di-arrhea,abdominal pain,vomiting,abnormal stool routine)disappearance time as well as stool frequency,stool character scores, immune function indexes(CD3+,CD4+,CD8+,CD4+/CD8+),inflammatory factors(IL-6,IL-10,TNF-α)before and after treat-ment,the occurrence of ADR were compared between 2 groups. RESULTS:The total response rate of observation group (90.91%)was significantly higher than that of control group(70.91%);the symptoms and signs disappearance time was signifi-cantly shorter than control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in stool frequency,stool character scores,immune function indexes or inflammatory factor levels between 2 groups(P>0.05). After treatment,stool frequency,stool character scores and inflammatory factor levels of 2 groups were significantly lower than before, and the observation group was significantly lower than the control group;the levels of CD3+,CD4+,CD4+/CD8+ were significantly higher than before treatment and control group,and the level of CD8 + was significantly lower than before treatment and control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). There was no significant difference in immune function indexes of control group be-fore and after treatment(P>0.05). Total incidence of dry mouth and constipation was 5.45% in control group and 9.09% in obser-vation group,without statistical significance(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:S. boulardii adjuvant with aluminium phosphate in the treatment of pediatric acute diarrhea can efficiently improve symptoms and signs,shorten disease duration,improve immune func-tion and reduce inflammatory reaction with good safety.
