Objective To investigate the clinical features,etiology and related clinical factors in neonatal anemia.Methods Two hundreds and sixty four infants admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit between January 2009 to March 2012 were retrospectively analysed with different levels,different age,different gestational age.Results Among 264 patients,the occupancy of blood loss anemia was 54.5 %.Mild and medium neonatal anemia were more than severe anemia (172 vs 92).Fetomaternal hemorrhage syndrome occurred commonly in severe anemia (16.3%,15/92).Early anemia was more than late anemia(182 vs 82).Hemorrhagic anemia in early anemia (64.3%,117/82)occurred mainly.Late anemia with infection mainly (67.1%,55/82).Fetomaternal hemorrhage syndrome were all early anemia and term to account for a higher proportion (94.4%,17/18);twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome occurred commonly among preterm term infants (96.7%,29/30).Conclusion Blood loss anemia was the main etiological factor resulting in neonatal anemia.The incidence of mild and medium neonatal anemia was quite high.Early anemia was more than late anemia.There might be some differences in the etiology between term and perterm infants.

Objective:To study the relationship between smoking behavior and self-esteem of adolescents.Methods:1307 students of the seventh and eighth grades of 8 private schools completed questionnaires about smoking behavior and self-esteem. Results: More cigarettes smoking, less score of self-esteem. Those had quit smoking had higher scores in self-esteem than those can not quit. Students who chose“will smoke in the future”had lower self-esteem than the students chose“won't smoke in the future”.Conclusion:Smoking behavior is a marker of low self-esteem.

Objective With eukaryote expression vector pEGFP-C2, to establish the HepG2 cell line which may stably express the P22e of hepatitis B virus (HBV), and may be used to study the existed relationship between HBVP22e and hepatitis B. Methods HBVP22e cDNA obtained by PCR from HBV adr subtype 1.2 copies genome plasmid p3.8II was inserted into universal vector pMD18-T for identification. The plasmids were transfected into HepG2 cells via liposome, while EGFP-HBVP22e was analyzed by Western blot, and observed with fluorescence microscope in HepG2 cells. Results Expression vectors of recombinant pEGFP-C2HBV P22e were constructed and expressed steadily in HepG2 cells. Conclusion The results can be used to explore biological activity of HBVP22e in hepatitis B.

Objective To study the clinical manifestations,etiology,magnetic resonance imaging features,prognosis of patients with bilateral medial medullary infarction.Methods The clinical information of two case reports were summarized with review of the literature.Results The 2 patients with bilateral medial medullary infarction reported here were manifested with progressive quadriplegia,both complicated with respiratory disorders.On etiology,both were due to atherosclerosis,and one was combined with congenital vascular variation.The Y shaped hyperintense signals were seen in diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) cross-section in the medulla oblongata level.And both had poor outcomes that one was dead and the other was discharged with tracheotomy and severe sequela.Conclusions Bilateral medial medullary infarction is presented with complicated symptoms such as quadriplegia,dysarthria,hypoglossoplegia,even respiratory failure,in which quadriplegia is most often seen,and it is associated with a poor clinical prognosis.DWI appears the characteristic Y Shaped sign.

Development of liver fibrosis is closely associated with angiogenesis and abnormal vascular remodeling. Recent studies have highlighted the importance of angiogenesis and vascular remodeling in fibrogenesis, the results that inhibition of angiogenesis is effective in suppression of liver fibrosis demonstrate that therapies with several molecular targets against angiogenesis, inflammation and fibrosis might be beneficial for the treatment of cirrhosis. However, there is some evidence that inhibition of angiogenesis can even worsen fibrosis. This article outlines recent advances regarding the interplay between inflammation, angiogenesis and fibrogenesis in terms of cellular and molecular mechanisms, and suggests a requirement of greater understanding to intervene in these key processes, such as liver sinusoidal endothelial cell fenestration and impact distinct chemokine actions driving monocyte migration and differentiation, for therapeutic benefit in the future.

Objective To evaluate the effect of sevoflurane on myocardial injury induced by hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation (HS/R) in pigs.Methods Twenty-four Bama miniature pigs (12 males, 12 females) , weighing 20-25 kg, aged 3-5 months, were randomly divided into 3 groups (n=8 each) using a random number table: sham operation group (group S) , HS/R group and sevoflurane group (group Sev).The left and right femoral arteries and right femoral vein were cannulated for blood pressure monitoring, blood-letting, blood sampling and fluid infusion.HS/R was induced by blood-letting maintaining for 1 h, followed by resuscitation with autologous blood reinfusion and infusion of lactated Ringer's solution 2 times the volume of the blood withdrawn.The pigs in group Sev were exposed to 2% sevoflurane for 30 min before resuscitation.After cannulation, at 30 min after hemorrhagic shock, before resuscitation, and at 30 min, and 1.5, 2.5 and 3.5 h after resuscitation, blood samples were collected from the femoral artery for determination of creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) activity and cardiac troponin Ⅰ (cTnI) concentration in serum using an automatic biochemical analyzer.Myocardial specimens were obtained at 3.5 h after resuscitation for detection of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-ot) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) contents (by ELISA) , and phosphor-signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (p-STAT1) expression (by Western blot), and for examination of the pathological changes (with light microscope).Results Compared with S group , the CK-MB activity and cTnI concentration in serum and contents of TNF-α and IL-6 were significantly increased, and the expression of p-STAT1 was up-regulated in HS/R and Sev groups (P<0.05).Compared with HS/R group, the CK-MB activity and cTnI concentration in serum and contents of TNF-α and IL-6 were significantly decreased, and the expression of p-STAT1 was downregulated (P<0.05) , and the pathological changes of myocardia were alleviated in Sev group.Conclusion Sevoflurane can alleviate HS/R-induced damage to myocardia of pigs, and inhibited STAT1 activity and attenuated inflammatory responses in the myocardium are involved in the mechanism.
