Objective To discuss the value of combining the physiological and operative severity score for enumeration of mortality and morbidity(POSSUM)and acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ(APACHE Ⅱ)in severe acute pancreatitis(sAP).Methods 60 cases of SAP were divided into surgery group(n=15)and non-surgical group(n=45),Non-surgical group was vahde with APACHE Ⅱ score,the surgery group with POSSUM score,decided to continue conservative treatment or surgery treatment,Observation of two ways with the complications and death.Results The rates of compHcafions and death were(0.37±0.08)and(0.27±0.09)in Single-operation group(n=15)higher than(0.76±0.14)and(0.61±0.15)in surgical group(n=11)(t1=3.125,t2=3.211,P＜0.01);APACHEⅡ score of mortality in operation group and non-surgical group were no significant difference(x2=2.28,x2=1.98,P＞0.05);APACHE Ⅱ score were(10.12±6.27)in survival group(n=46)were lower than (25.75±7.90)in death group(n=14)(t=2.525,P＜0.05.Conclusion The score of dynamic APACHE Ⅱ has better effect to judge the timing of surgery,and the score of POSSUM has high value to predict post-operative complications and deaths occurred in patients with severe acute pancreatitis.

Objective To express soluble single chain variable fragments (ScFv) of monoclonal antibody MC3 recognizing colorectal carcinomas in E. coli HB2151 and to purify the soluble ScFv and identify its antigen binding activities to find new target vectors for the diagnosis and therapy of colorectal carcinomas. Methods The phage clones displaying ScFv fragment of the monoclonal antibody MC3 were used to infect E. coli HB2151 to express soluble antibodies. The soluble ScFvs were identified by Dot blot and Western blot and their antigen binding activities were determined by ELISA. The VH and VL DNAs of the ScFv DNA derived were sequenced based on the dideoxy method. Results The soluble MC3 ScFvs were expressed successfully. The expression products with a proximate MW of 32?10 3 were mainly secreted into the periplasm. The soluble ScFv containing periplasmatic extracts derived from three clones could inhibit the binding of MC3 with its antigen, and the inhibition rates were 41.19%, 36.89% and 33.77% respectively. The sequences of the VH and VL DNAs of the MC3 ScFv showed that the variable antibody genes belonged to the IgG1 subgroup and ? type. Conclusion Generation of E. coli HB2151 expressed ScFv of monoclonal antibody MC3 paves the way for further use of the antibody.

Objective To study the application value of serum umbilical cord blood bilirubin and hemolysis three test in the prediction of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia.Methods 1 200 cases of healthy newborn were selected,whose mothers were type O blood and fathers were not type O blood.According to the situation of maternal and infant blood type,they were divided into the same maternal and child blood type group with 539 cases and different blood type group with 661 cases;According to the umbilical cord blood bilirubin concentration range was divided into five groups,and analyzed umbilical cord blood bilirubin and hemolysis three test in the prediction of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia.Results (1) The concentrations of umbilical cord blood bilirubin,the incidence of ABO-HDN,the incidence of hyperbilirubinemia in the maternal-fetal blood(O-A/B) group were (38.1 ± 10.3) μmol/L,47.35％,26.02％,respectively,which were all significantly higher than (33.4 ± 7.9)μmol/L,15.21％,14.66％ in the maternal blood type (O-O) group (t =5.8,x2 =120.7,x2 =20.1,all P =0.000) ; (2) When the concentrations of umbilical cord blood bilirubin was higher,the incidence of hyperbilirubinemia was higher,but the sensitivity and the specificity both were bad; (3) According to the result of hemolysis three to predict the neonatal hyperbilirubinemia,when the concentrations of umbilical cord blood bilirubin was less than 21μmol/L or more than 55μmol/L,the positive predictive value and the specificity both were 100.00％,and the sensitivity was not low(75.00％ and 86.96％).Conclusion Detection of umbilical cord blood bilirubin and hemolysis three test in the maternal-fetal blood group incompatibility could predict early hyperbilirubinemia of newborn,which had certain clinically practical value.

Objective To explore the changing rule of schistosomiasis endemic situation in Gaoyou City,so as to provide the evidences for schistosomiasis control in lake and marshland regions. Methods The endemic data of schistosomiasis of Gaoy?ou City from 1970 to 2009 were collected to analyze the endemic patterns of schistosomiasis in different control stages compre?hensively. Results In the first years of infection control stage(1970-1975),transmission control stage(1976-1994)and transmission interruption stage(1995-2009),the prevalence rates of schistosomiasis were 4.20%,0.80%and 0 in human and 3.00%,0.51%and 0 in cattle respectively. In 1984,the positive rate of crowd stool tests fell to 0.04%,which was reduced by 99.05%compared with that in 1970. From 1970 to 1980,the positive rates of stool tests of people and livestock were positively correlated significantly(r=0.67,P<0.05). After 1985,no local infection patients or cattle were found. No schistosome infect?ed Oncomelania hupensis snails were found from 1970 to 2009. Conclusion The comprehensive control measures have been insisted in Gaoyou City in different prevention and control stages. Although the snail situation is undulate,the prevalence of schistosomiasis steadily declines and the interruption of transmission has achieved.

Objective To investigate the correlation between spot albuminuria to creatinine ratio (ACR) and 24 h urinary protein excretion in women with preeclampsia and determine the optimal cut-off values of spot ACR in mild preeclampsia and severe preeclampsia.Methods Twenty-eight women with mild preeclampsia and 22 with severe preeclampsia at Nanfang Hospital,Southern Medical University between October 2010 and June 2011 were recruited.Maternal serum cystatin,uric acid,mea nitrogen,creatinine and albumin levels were collected and analyzed.Twenty-four hours urinary protein excretion was measured with immunoturbidimetric assay and ACR with automatic analyzer DCA2000.The correlation between ACR and 24 hours urinary protein excretion was explored.And the optimal cut-off values of the spot ACR for mild and severe preeclampsia were determined with receiver operating characteristic curve.Results ( 1 )Maternal serum biochemical parameters:uric acid levels in mild and severe preeclampsia were (359 ± 114)μmol/L and (450 ± 132) μmol/L,while cystatin levels were ( 1.3 ±0.3) mg/L and ( 1.6 ±0.5) mg/L respectively.The differences were statistically significant ( P ＜ 0.05 ).Serum urea nitrogen,creatinine and albumin in mild preeclampsia were(3.6 ± 1.6) mmol/L,(52 ± 38 ) μmol/L and ( 33 ± 3 ) g/L,while in severe preeclampsia were( 6.2 ± 3.1 ) mmol/L,( 78 ± 59 ) μmol/L and ( 29 ± 6 ) g/L respectively.There were no statistical significant differences ( P ＞ 0.05 ).(2) Twenty-four hours urinary protein excretion and ACR:24 hours urinary protein levels in mild and severe preeclampsia was (700 ± 160) mg and (4800 ±2200) mg (P＜0.05).ACR in mild and severe preeclampsia was (72.7 ± 12.4) mg/mmol and (401 ±245) mg/mmol respectively (P ＜ 0.05 ).(3) There was a strong correlation between the spot ACR and 24hours urine protein excretion ( r =0.938 ; P ＜ 0.05 ).( 4 ) The optimal spot ACR cut-off point for the diagnosis of preeclampsia:the optimal spot ACR cut-off point was 22.8 mg/mmol for 300 mg/24 hours of protein excretion in mild preeclampsia,the area under curve was 0.956,with a sensitivity,specificity of 82.4％,99.4％ respectively.And the optimal spot ACR cut-off point was 155.6 mol for 2000 mg/24 hours of protein excretion in severe preeclampsia,the area under curve was 0.956,with a sensitivity,specificity of 88.6％,91.3％ respectively.Conclusions Compared with 24 hours urinary protein excretion,the spot ACR may be a simple,convenient and accurate indicator of early diagnosis of preeclampsia.Spot ACR may be used as a replacement for 24 hours urine protein excretion in assessment of preeclampsia.The optimal spot ACR cut off points were 22.8 mg/mmol for mild preeclampsia and 155.6 mg/mmol for severe preeclampsia.

Objective To evaluate the effects of penehyclidine hydroehloride as an atropine alternative on angioearpy and glandular secretions when premedieated in ketamine complex total intravenous anesthesia(TIVA)in children.Methods Forty patients aged 3-10 years undergoing ketamine and propofol complex TIVA were randomly divided into two groups.Penehyclidine hydrochloride(group P,n=20)or atropine(group A,n=20)was premedicated intramuscularly 30 min before anesthesia.Heart rate(HR),mean arterial pressure(MAP),breath rate(R)and the amount of saliva secretion(SS)were recorded before premedication(0 min),10 min,20 min,30 min,60 min and 150 min after.Results (1)SS reduced significantly 20 min,30 min and 60 min after premedication in both groups(P＜0.01),and in 150 min,it was still in a significantly reduced level in group P(P＜0.01),which was significantly lower than that in group A(P＜0.01).(2)MAP,HR and R in group P showed no significant differences before and after premedication(P＞0.05).But in group A,HR increased significantly at 20 min,30 min and 60 min after premedication(P＜0.05 or＜0.01),MAP increased significantly at 30 min and 60 min after premedication(P＜0.01),and meanwhile of them were also significantly higher than those in group P(P＜0.05 or＜0.01).Conclusions Penehychdine hydrochloride can effectively reduce respiratory glandular secretion with longer persistence,and nearly has no influence on HR and blood pressure,which suggests it could be a superior to atropine alternative as an anesthesia premedication in children.

Objective To investigate immunological relationship between early induction of food allergy and occurrence of later asthma in mice, and explore the pathological changes in lung tissues. Methods Thirty-seven female BALB/c mice aged 6 weeks were randomly divided into blank control group ( n = 12), food allergy group ( n = 13) and asthma group (n = 12). After being challenged by ovalbumin (OVA), the levels of serum IgE, IL-4 and INF-γ in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid ( BALF) were detected. The numbers of inflammatory cells and eosinophils ( EOS) in BALF were counted. Lung tissues were obtained for pathological sections, and thickness of bronchial wall and EOS infiltration were observed. Results The level of serum IgE and level of IL-4, ratio of IL-4/IFN-γ and number of EOS in BALF in food allergy group and asthma group were significantly higher than those in control group (P <0.05). The level of IL-4 and number of EOS in BALF in asthma group were significantly higher than those in food allergy group (P <0.05) , while there was no significant difference in serum IgE level between these two groups (P > 0.05), and levels of IFN-7 in BALF in both groups were significantly lower than that in blank control group (P<0.05). There were more EOS infiltration in lung tissues and thicker bronchial wall in food allergy group and asthma group than that in blank control group (P < 0.05), and the number of EOS in asthma group was significantly higher than that in food allergy group ( P < 0.05). Conclusion IgE-mediated immune response is involved in both food allergy and asthma mouse models. Lung immune imbalance of Thl/Th2 and inflammatory cell infiltration caused by food allergy may participate in the occurrence of later asthma.

Objective To study the protective effect of vitamin C on UV-induced photoaged skin structure in rats and provide a basis for clinical medicine and health care.Methods Photoaging skin models were set up by chronic ultraviolet radiation in 24 SPF female Sprague-Dawley rats, irradiated twice weekly for 4 weeks.The rat photoaged skin was induced by exposure to a total dose of 123 J/cm2 UVA and 5 J/cm2 UVB for 4 weeks.Vitamin C was administered by gastric gavage in a dose of 50 mg/kg once daily for 30 days during the model development.We compared the pathological changes in the irradiated skin using HE, Masson’ s trichrome and Victoria blue B staining, and compared the ultrastructural changes by electron microscopy.Results Rat models with photoaged skin were developed successfully.The vitamin C group showed significant reduction of pathological severity including erythema, ulcers, epidermal cell proliferation, epidermal thickness, dermis vasodilation, inflammatory cell infiltration, fibroblast proliferation, endoplasmic reticulum dilatation, mitochondrial swelling and vacuolization, elastic fibers degeneration and focal accumulation, collagen fibers swelling with uneven thickness,compared with the rats of model group at the irradiation site.Conclusions Vitamin C is effective in reducing the structural damage of UV-induced photoaged skin in rats.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of integrated traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)and western medicine in treatment of acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(AECOPD)combined with respiratory failure,TCM syndromes of spleen-kidney-yang deficiency and phlegm-dampness by comparison between the integrated therapy and simple western therapy in treatment of the disease. Methods 160 patients with AECOPD combined with respiratory failure,spleen-kidney-yang deficiency and phlegm-dampness syndrome in the intensive care units(ICU)of Affiliated Hospital of Chengdu University of TCM and other four hospitals were randomly allocated into two groups in this double-blinded,multicenter,prospective,randomized,controlled trial. In the control group (78 cases),western medicine and placebo were given to the patients,and in the treatment group(82 cases), conventional western medicine plus fei-shuai mistura 25 mL were administered,four times per day,the therapeutic course lasting for 2 weeks in both groups. The all-cause mortality,respiratory failure-cause mortality,improvement of modified Medical Research Council(mMRC)Dyspnea Scale grades,6 minutes walk distance(6MWD),the forced expiratory volume in 1 second/forced vital capacity(FEV1/FVC)were observed in the 28 days after the end of treatment. Results In the comparisons between the control and treatment groups,there were no statistical significant differences in the all-cause mortality〔54.87%(45/82)vs. 64.10%(50/78)〕and the cases of FEV1/FVC(both P>0.05)in the 28 days after the end of treatment;the 28 day respiratory failure-cause mortality was significantly decreased〔19.51%(16/82)vs. 33.33%(26/78),P<0.05〕,the number of patients with mMRC Dyspnea Scale grades (1-2)was obviously increased(22 cases vs. 7 cases,P<0.05),and the number of patients with 6 MWD grades (4-6)was markedly enhanced in the treatment group(21 cases vs. 8 cases,P<0.05). Conclusions The integrated TCM and western medicine has better therapeutic results in improvement of the patients' degree of dyspnea, 6 MWD and respiratory failure mortality than simple treatment with western therapy for treatment of patients with AECOPD combined with respiratory failure, spleen-kidney-yang deficiency and phlegm-dampness syndrome. However,in regard to the effect on pulmonary function and all cause mortality,the integrated therapy for treatment of such patients in short term has no significant effect.
