Helicobacter pylori(Hp)is one of the most frequently seen pathogenic bacteria in human beings. Hp infection is closely related to the occurrence and development of chronic gastritis,peptic ulcer and gastric cancer. Therefore,eradication of Hp is very important for the prevention and treatment of such diseases. This article reviewed the progress in research on therapeutic regimen for Hp eradication.

Background: Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection is associated with a variety of gastrointestinal diseases.Studies have shown that Hp eradication rate may be affected by the disease type and stage of disease progression.Aims: To investigate the influence of endoscopic ulcer stage on Hp eradication rate.Methods: A total of 423 peptic ulcer (PU) patients with Hp infection from January 2015 to July 2016 at the People's Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region were enrolled.Of them,133 were gastric ulcer (GU) and 255 were duodenal ulcer (DU).A 14-day bismuth quadruple therapy was given for Hp eradication,and the eradication rates were analyzed with the endoscopic ulcer stage.Univariate analysis was conducted to identify factors influencing the eradication rate.Results: There was no significant difference in Hp eradication rates between GU and DU groups (82.7％ vs.83.9％,P>0.05).The eradication rates according to endoscopic ulcer stage were significantly different in GU group (active stage vs.inactive stage: 89.0％ vs.75.0％,P＜0.05);but in DU group,the eradication rate in active stage was similar to that in inactive stage (85.6％ vs.83.0％,P>0.05).Univariate analysis revealed that ulcer stage was correlated with the success rate of eradication;the eradication rate in active stage was significantly higher than that in inactive stage (87.8％ vs.80.3％,P＜0.05).Conclusions: Endoscopic ulcer stage is correlated with the Hp eradication rate in PU,especially GU patients.Hp eradication therapy performed in patients with active PU could yield a higher eradication rate.

OBJECTIVE: To explore whether there are beta-amyloid protein (Abeta) binding elements in heart-beneficial recipe (HBR, a compound traditional Chinese herbal medicine), which can ameliorate the cytotoxicity of Abeta. METHODS: The extract of HBR and Abeta(1-40) were co-precipitated, and the Abeta(1-40) in pellets was detected by immunoblotting. Affi-gel-Abeta(1-40) was constructed, and Affi-gel-Abeta(1-40) affinity elements from the extract of HBR were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The assay of lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) release from the primary cultured rat cortex neurons was used to evaluate the cytotoxicity of Abeta(1-42), and the protection effects of the HBR serum and the Affi-gel-Abeta(1-40) treated HBR serum. RESULTS: Immunoblotting examination showed Abeta(1-40) could be co-precipitated with components of HBR following co-incubation, and the amount of Abeta(1-40) within pellets decreased when the HBR extract was diluted. Abeta(1-40) affinity elements from the extract of HBR, eluted from Affi-gel-Abeta(1-40) by glycine solution (pH=2.5), could be detected by HPLC-fluorescent detector system. The analysis of LDH release showed that exposure of neurons to 5 micromol/L Abeta(1-42) for 48 h caused a significant increase of LDH release in either a serum free or 10% serum contained culture condition (P<0.01). The rat HBR serum was able to suppress Abeta(1-42) induced LDH release (P<0.05), whereas Affi-gel-Abeta(1-40) treated HBR serum still maintained the ability to attenuate Abeta(1-42) induced LDH release although the effect was somewhat decreased compared with Affi-gel treated HBR serum. CONCLUSION: There are Abeta affinity components in HBR, which could not increase the Abeta cytotoxicity, but might be able to inhibit the cytotoxicity of Abeta. The results implied that the exploration of Abeta affinity elements from Chinese medicinal recipe which is effective for Alzheimer disease, might be an important direction in Alzheimer disease therapeutic research area.

Objective To construct and identify the siRNA eukaryotic expression vector targeting gene CXC chemo-kine receptor-4 and explore its role in invasion process of breast cancer cells in vitro. Methods Two siRNAs were designed and synthesized according to the coding sequence of CXCR4 gene and cloned into eukaryotic expression plasmid pGE-1-U6/kna. The constructed CXCR4-siRNA expression vector was transfected into MDA-MB-231 cells by liposome. Western blot was used to evaluate the suppression of CXCR4 expression in different groups. The inva-sion and migration of MDA-MB-231 cells were evaluated by cell invasion assay in vitro. Results Enzyme digestion and DNA sequencing confirmed that the CXCR4-siRNA expression vector was successfully constructed. After trans-fection,the CXCR4-siRNA obviously suppressed the expression of CXCR4 compared with control groups and the ability of cell migration was decreased markedly. Conclusion CXCR4-siRNA expression vector can effectively sup-press CXCR4 expression in the breast cancer cells and decrease potential of cell invasion, which may provide a no-vel strategy for gene therapy of breast cancer metastasis.

Objective To investigate the epidemiological features of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) in Zhejiang and to analysis factors associated with outcomes for providing evidence on improving the success rate of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Methods Clinical data of 493 patients with OHCA collected from the emergency department (ED) of Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital, Ningbo Emergency Medical Service Center and Shaoxing Emergency Medical Service Center from January 2012 to August 2016 were analyzed retrospectively. All the data were recorded following the Utstein style included causes of arrest, location of arrest, first arrest rhythm, witnessed by bystanders, bystander CPR, pre-hospital defibrillation, pre-hospital intubation, pre-hospital epinephrine administration, emergency medical services (EMS) response time, return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) at scene/enroute, ROSC at ED, admission to hospital, survival to hospital discharge and neurological outcomes at discharge. Factors associated with 30 days survival rate of patients with OHCA were analyzed. Results 493 patients were enrolled, of whom 342 were male and 151 were female. The average age was (58.8±21.4) years. The causes of arrests consisted of cardiac etiology (219 cases), trauma (155 cases), respiratory disease (22 cases), drowning (19 cases), electrocution (8 cases) and others (70 cases). Most of the events occurred at home (65.1%) and public places (22.7%). 55.2% patients were witnessed by bystanders while bystander CPR was performed in only 2.6% cases. Asystole was the predominant rhythm (78.7%) observed by the ambulance crew at the arrest site while only 5.5% first arrest rhythms were ventricular fibrillation/ventricular tachycardia (VF/VT). Only 6.9% patients underwent pre-hospital defibrillation. Pre-hospital intubations were attempted in 16.4% patients. Epinephrine was administered in 56.4% patients at scene or in ambulances. EMS response time was (13.6±8.0) minutes. 4.5% patients had ROSC at scene/enroute and 7.7% had ROSC at ED. Only 9.7% patients were admitted to hospital and 1.2% discharged alive. 0.8% patients were still in hospital on 30th day. The 30-day survival rate was 2.0% (10/493) and only 0.8% patients had neurologically favorable survivals [with the cerebral performance category (CPC) score of 1 or 2]. Witnessed by bystanders (3.31% vs. 0.45%), VF/VT as the first arrest rhythm (7.41% vs. 1.72%), bystander CPR (15.38% vs. 1.67%), pre-hospital defibrillation (8.82% vs. 1.53%) and EMS response time < 10 minutes (3.57% vs. 0.74%) could improve 30-day survival rate of OHCA significantly (all P < 0.05). Conclusion Resuscitation survival of OHCA in Zhejiang province was unsatisfactory. Improvements are required in series aspects of OHCA survival chain.

Objective To study the phonetic characteristics of patients with abnormal plosive consonant of functional articulation disorders (FAD) and the possible treatment approaches.Methods A total of patients of 4~26 years old with abnormal plosive consonant of FAD received speech assessment and the phonetic characteristics.Incorrect articulation patterns and forms of plosive consonant /b/,/p/,/d/,/t/,/g/ and /k/ were analysed.The targeted speech treatment was established to correct the erroneous places and types of pronunciation.Results The error rate of /t/ (82/87)was the highest,followed by /k/(77/87),/d/(67/87),/g/(60/87),/p/(59/87) and /b/(3/87) which was the lowest.The error rate of fricative was 65.52% as the highest among all the erroneous patterns,followed by unaspiration(63.22%),forward movement of the tongue(54.02%),distortion(33.33%),bilabial(32.18%),and backward movement of the tongue(18.39%).Seventy-one cases were completely cured,and 16 cases partially cured after 2 to 10 times of treatment.The number of incorrect words of plosives decreased to 4.03±2.71 after the speech therapy from 67.97±18.56 prior to that.The differences were statistically significant (t =34.301,P<0.001).Conclusion The articulation errors of plosives occur mainly on /t/,/k/,/d/,/g/and /p/,/b/.The incorrect types of pronunciation are fricatives,unaspiration,distortion and omission.The incorrect places of articulation are forward movement of the tongue,bilabial and backward movement of the tongue.The targeted speech therapy established according to the erroneous places and types of articulation is significantly effective.
