Objective To explore the effect of responsibility system of family doctors( RSFD) for community management of the patients with diabetic retinopathy ( DR ) .Methods Fifty -two cases with non -proliferative diabetic retinopathy( NPDR) found in annual health examination in community health care centers were selected and randomly divided into intervention group(30 cases) and control group(22 cases).The intervention group received RSFD service mode and the control group received conventional management mode for 1 year.Patients'visual acuity, fundus,fasting blood-glucose(FBG),glycosylated haemoglobin(HbA1c) were observed and compared before and after intervention.Results In this study,the efficacy in improving patients'visual acuity and retinopathy was 73.3%in the intervention group and 45.5%in the control group,there was statistically significant difference between the two groups(χ2 =4.168,P=0.041).Before intervention,the control rates of patients'FBG were 36.4% and 30.0%respectively,and HbA1c was 27.3%and 33.3%.There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups(P>0.05).After intervention,the control rates of patients'FBG and HbA1c were 86.6% and 80.0% in intervention group,and 59.1%and 54.5%in the control group,there were statistically significant differences between the two groups (χ2 =5.147,P=0.023;χ2 =3.861,P=0.049).Conclusion RSFD service mode was conductive to control patients'blood sugar and improve visual acuity and retinopathy,we could disseminate and apply it to manage-ment of DR in community.

Objective To investigate the role of dendritic cell (DC) subsets and T cell subpopulations expressing different intracellular cytokines in the pathogenesis of syphilis. Methods Flow cytometry was utilized to measure the frequencies of peripheral DC subsets and IFN-γ-, IL-2-, IL-4-, IL-10-expressing peripheral CD4+ and CD8+ T cell subpopulations in 20 patients with syphilis before and after therapy, and in 15 healthy human controls. Results The frequency of CD11c+ DC was significantly lower in pretreated patients than that in treated patients (P<0.01), but higher than that in the normal controls (P<0.05), and the same was true for the frequency of IFN-γ-expressing T cells, IL-2-expressing T cells, and IL-12-expressing T cells. By contrast, a decrease was noticed in the frequency of IL-4-expressing T cells and IL-10-expressing T cells in pretreated patients compared with that in the normal controls. Furthermore, in patients with syphilis, the frequency of CD11c+ and CD123+ DC was unrelated to the percentage of IFN-γ-expressing and IL-12- expressing T cells (both P>0.05). Conclusions IFN-γ, IL-2 and IL-12 may exert an immunoregnlatory effect in the eliminating of Treponema pallidum, whereas IL-4 and IL-10 may perform an imrnunoinhibitory effect.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of alemtuzumab in renal transplant recipients treated with induction therapy. Methods Eighty-nine cadaveric renal transplant recipients in our department were randomly divided into experimental group (n = 43) treated with alemtuzumab induction, 15 mg i. v. and control group (n = 46). Main immunosuppressive therapy regimen consisted of steroids, tacrolimus or cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil in all recipients. Post-transplant kidney function, acute rejection,infection, DGF, graft survival, lymphocyte counts were recorded within 1 year. ATP values in CD4+ T cells after transplantation was determined by using Cylex ImmuKnow assay. Results There was significant difference in the incidence of biopsy-proven acute rejection, but no significant difference was found in ImmuKnow ATP values during 6 months after transplantation and lymphocyte counts during 3 months, graft survival and the incidence of infections between the two groups. Conclusion Induction therapy with alemtuzumab appeared to be effective in the prevention of acute rejection.

OBJECTIVETo observe the efficacy on primary osteoporosis treated with spreading moxibustion for warming yang and activating blood circulation so as to provide the effective clinical therapeutic methods for osteoporosis.
METHODSSixty cases of primary osteoporosis were randomized into a spreading moxibustion group (30 cases) and a calcium tablet group (30 cases). In the calcium tablet group, caltrate was prescribed for oral administration, 600 mg per day. In the spreading moxibustion group, on the basis of the treatment as the calcium tablet group, the spreading moxibustion was applied at Dazhui (GV 14) to Yaoshu (GV 2) for warming yang and activating blood circulation. The duration of treatment was 12 weeks. Visual analogue scale (VAS) score, TCM clinical symptom score and bone mineral density (BMD) were observed and compared before and after treatment in the patients between the two groups.
RESULTSVAS scores were reduced apparently after treatment in the two groups (both P < 0.01) and the results in the spreading moxibustion group were obviously superior to that in the calcium tablet group (2.36 +/- 0.43 vs 4.52 +/- 0.35, P < 0.01). BMD were all increased in the two groups (P < 0.05, P < 0.01) and the results in the spreading moxibustion group were superior to those in the calcium tablet group (both P < 0.05). The total clinical effective rate was 86.67% (26/30) in the spreading moxibustion group, apparently better than 63.33% (19/30) in the calcium tablet group (P < 0.05). TCM clinical symptom scores after treatment were all reduced apparently in the two groups (both P < 0.01), and the result in the spreading moxibustion group was obviously superior to that in the calcium tablet group (4.72 +/- 1.90 vs 6.82 +/- 2.30, P < 0.01). The total effective rate of TCM symptoms was 93.33% (28/30) in the spreading moxibustion group, apparently better than 70.00% (21/30) in the calcium tablet group (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONThe combined therapy of spreading moxibustion for warming yang and activating blood circulation and the oral administration of caltrate apparently relieves pain and TCM clinical symptoms, improves BMD in the patients of osteoporosis and achieves definite clinical efficacy in the patients of osteoporosis.

OBJECTIVETo explore causes of shoulder pain and propose prevention measures in treating acromioclavicular joint dislocation.
METHODSFrom January 2005 to January 2013, 86 patients with acromioclavicular joint dislocation (Tossy III) were treated with hook plate fixation, and were divided into two groups. Bsaed on recovery of shoulder function mostly, the patients who suffered from rest pain, motion pain were named as shoulder pain group, while the patients without pain were named as painless group. In shoulder pain group, there were 21 cases including 15 males and and 6 females ranging the age from 22 to 62 years old with an average of (40.6±11.2) years old. There were 8 cases were on the left side and 13 cases were on the right side. In painless group, there were 65 cases including 36 males and and 29 females ranging the age from 19 to 65 years old with an average of (40.0±11.3) years old. There were 33 cases were on the left side and 32 cases were on the right side. The time from injury to operation ranged from 3 h to 8 d with an average of 34.6 h. Shoulder function of all patients were normal before injuried. Postoperative pain, activity of daily living (ADL), range of motion, deltoid muscle strength were compared. Anteflexion,rear protraction, abduction and upthrow of shoulder joint were also compared. Postoperative complications between two groups were observed and compared.
RESULTSAll patients were followed up from 12 to 48 months with an average of 18.5 months. Constant-Murley score were used to evaluate clinical efficacy at the least following up, and 13 cases got an excellent results, 5 moderate, 2 good and 1 poor in shoulder pain group ; while 61 cases were obtained excellent results, 3 moderate and 1 good in painless group. There were significantly differences between two groups in Constant-Murley score and activity of shoulder joint (P<0.05). In shoulder pain group, 3 cases were disconnected, 1 case occurred stress fracture, 9 cases were subacromial impingement syndrome, 5 cases occurred subluxation, 1 case occurred plate breakage and 11 cases were acromioclavicular arthritis.
CONCLUSIONChosing individual clavicular hook plate, fulfilling anatomic reset, paying attention to the repair of articular capsule ligament, and reducing hook and bone antagonism between stress is the key point of preventing and decreasing postoperative shoulder pain.
