1.Perinatal infection and asthma in the infant
International Journal of Pediatrics 2010;37(1):20-22
Epidemiological and clinical studies have provided compelling evidence that suggests a link between the relative lack of infectious diseases and the increase in allergic disorders. Asthma usually starts early in life. The early occurrence of asthma suggests that prinatal influences are of importance.Prenatal or postnatal exposure to endotoxins and other bacterial products may protect against the development of asthma in the infant. We will briefly outline the current state of the relationship of the perinatal infection and asthma in the infant, and focus our review mainly on possible rneehanism of perinatal infection providing protection against asthma in the infant, such as Th1/Th2 immune system, transcription factors, protection by maternal antibodies, endotoxin tolerance, pulmonary inflammation and genetic influences.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the risk factors of professional exposure among medical staff and explore the preventive strategies.METHODS The influence of factors including profession,exposure process,exposed materials,treatment process,and follow-up among 110 medical staff with professional exposure was analyzed.RESULTS The general incidence of professional exposure was 52.73%,35.45% and 6.36% for clinical doctors,nures,and workers,respectively.Among all exposure cases,we found the incidence was 62.73% for pricking wound,20% for various liquid contamination,4.55% for glass injury,2.73% for scalpel cutting,and 4.55% for other instrument related damage.The reasons leading to exposure were treatment and nursing care,surgery assistance,and instrument and materials manipulation,which accounted for 40%,31.82%,and 18.18% of total incidence,respectively.All of the exposure cases had been properly treated.None of the investigated cases had been found illed with blood derived transmitted disease caused by professional exposure.CONCLUSIONS It is critical to intensify the training of medical staff for the knowledge of professional exposure and to improve their personal protective awareness,so that the incidence of professional exposure could be reduced.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of acupuncture in treating Oxycodone hydrochloride-induced constipation in cancer pain patients.Method Sixty cancer pain patients with Oxycodone hydrochloride-induced constipation were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 30 cases in each group. The treatment group was intervened by acupuncture, while the control group was by oral administration of lactulose oral solution. The therapeutic efficacies were compared after 2-week treatment, and the quality of life was evaluated before and after treatment.Result The total effective rate was 90.0% in the treatment group versus 73.3% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) score was significantly changed in the treatment group after intervention (P<0.05). There was a significant difference in comparing the KPS score between the two groups after treatment (P<0.05).Conclusion Acupuncture can produce a significant efficacy in treating Oxycodone hydrochloride-induced constipation, and also improve the patients’ quality of life.

Objective To provide basis for the diagnosis,treatment,prevention and control of pertussis by analyzing serological test findings and clinical features of inpatients.Methods Serological test findings (including outpatients and inpatients) of suspected cases and medical records diagnosed as pertussis (severe group and non-severe group) were analyzed in Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong University from January 1,2012 to December 31,2014.This retrospective study was conducted to explore the epidemiological characteristics,clinical manifestations,image manifestations of pertussis in recent years.Results The incidence of pertussis was obviously higher in 2014 than the previous 2 years,nearly 10 times than that of 2013;summer and autumn were high-occurrence seasons;pertussis was found predominately in children under 6 years old,as 68%-80%,and the majority of them were 3 months-1 year old and 4-6 years old,and there was a notable increase in children more than 6 years old in 2014;the clinical manifestations tended to be atypical,primarily spasmodic cough (79.01%,64/81 cases),cyanosis (60.49 %,49/81 cases),vomiting after cough (35.80%,30/81 cases),conjunctiva haemorrhage (22.22 %,18/81 cases) apnea or heart rate decrease(9.88%,8/81 cases),and whooping cough (7.41%,6/81 cases).There were significant differences(all P < 0.05) in age (t =2.940),paroxysmal cyanosis (x2 =4.505),elevated white blood cell count (x2 =4.410),and lymphocyte percentage increase(x2 =7.830) between severe group and non-severe group.There was no statistical difference in sex(x2 =0.847),season (x2 =0.178),spasmodic cough (x2 =0.097),whooping cough (x2 =0.002),conjunctiva hemorrhage (x2 =0.395),apnea (x2 =0.395) and fever (x2 =0.301) between the 2 groups (all P > 0.05).Mixed infection with mycoplasma was most common.Imaging manifestations of pertussis were not specific,and they might manifest uneven density,patchy inflammatory infiltrates and atelectasis.Conclusions The morbidity of pertussis is rising and atypical cases is increasing in these years,and severe cases are seen most frequently in small infants,it is necessary to perfect the laboratory test methods and immunization strategy.

Background:
Overactive bladder (OAB) is a prevalent condition that substantially degrades patient quality of life. Acupuncture is recognized as an effective therapeutic approach for various urological diseases. However, there is limited evidence validating the effectiveness and safety of acupuncture for OABs.
Objective:
To assess the therapeutic efficacy of acupuncture for OAB and to investigate the potential mechanisms by analyzing its effects on relevant urinary biomarkers.
Methods:
This is a randomized, participants and outcome assessors blinded, sham acupuncture controlled trial. A total of 110 patients with OABs will be randomly divided in a 1:1 ratio between the acupuncture and sham acupuncture groups. Participants in the acupuncture group will undergo 30-min authentic acupuncture, while their counterparts in the sham acupuncture group will undergo sham acupuncture needling non-acupoints superficially three times weekly for a duration of 8 weeks. The two co-primary outcomes will be the change in the mean number of micturitions per 24 h from baseline to the end of the 8-week treatment and 20-week follow-up. The secondary outcomes will encompass the change in Overactive Bladder Symptom Score, Overactive Bladder Questionnaire Short Form, and average 24 h values of urgency, daytime micturition, nocturia, and mean volume voided per micturition from baseline to weeks 8 and 20. Urinary nerve growth factor, brain-derived neurotrophic factor, and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 levels will be measured at baseline and week 8. Adverse events will also be documented.
Discussion
The results of this trial will provide evidence for the effectiveness and safety of acupuncture in the management of OAB.
