Kawasaki disease(KD) is the most common reason for acquired heart disease in children,which is closely related to autoimmune response and the release of cytokines in vascular endothelial cells.Steroids are strongly effective in countering inflammation as well as immune response.In the time of being,it has become a hot spot that steroids play an important role in the initial treatment for acute KD and for incomplete and refractory KD.

Kawasaki disease (KD) is one of the most common causes of acquired heart disase in children,the development of which is closely related to the allergic diseases.Recent studies have manifested that the incidence of allergic diseases in children with KD is far higher than that in those children without KD.Meanwhile,the morbidity of KD in allergic children is significantly higher than that in those who do not have family medical history of allergic diseases.By far,the mechanisms causing interaction between KD and allergic diseases still remain unclear.Possible mechanisms include IgE-meditated immune response,release of large quantity of cytokines and inflammatory meditators as well as atopic family history.

Magnetic resonance imaging diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) as a non-radiation and noninvasive examination method,has great help in diagnosis and staging of lung cancer,and the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) determination has demonstrated clinical application value in the therapeutic assessment.As an essential complement of CT,MRI-CT imaging infusion improves the accuracy of the target volume sketching in the radiotherapy of lung cancer.

Objective To inspect the rate of success of anastomosis and tissue damage with different power levels of photocoagulation in the treatment of experimental branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) by laser induced chorioretinal venous anastomosis. Methods Forty pigmented rabbits (80 eyes) were divided into four groups in random, and 10 (20 eyes) in each. Chroioretinal venous anastomosis was attempted to create using the krypton red laser with 4 different power levels (group A: 400 mW,group B: 600 mW,group C: 800 mW,group D: 1000 mW) in these animals in which BRVO had previously been created photodynamically. Fundus photography and fundus fluorescein angiography were performed at various times after the treatment and histological examination was taken at the end of the study. Results The model of BRVO was successfully set up. At the lowest power of 400 mW there was an absence of anastomosis formation and the damage to the retina and choroid was mild, Bruch′s membrane showed no evidence of rupture. At the power levels of 600 mW and 800 mW an anastomosis formed in 15% and 55% respectively and the damage was medium in degree. At the highest power level of 1 000 mW a 80% rate of success was obtained, however, the damage to the retina and choroid tended to be severe. The difference of the rate of success of anastomosis between different groups was highly significant ( P =0 001), the difference between group B and group C was also highly significant ( P BC =0.008), and the difference between group A and group B, group C and group D was not significant ( P AB =0 072、 P CD =0 091). Conclusion The optimal power level of krypton red laser induced chorioretinal venous anastomosis is 800 mW, 0.1 s, 50 ?m in our study.

Lung transplantation is the only effective treatment for final stage pneumonopathy. However, bronchitis obliterans, as the main of complication, can prevent the long term survival after lung transplantation. Tracheal epithelium cell is the main target organ of the tardive reject reaction. This paper briefly explains the immunologic mechanism regarding the development of bronchitis obliterans, and the role of tracheal epithelium cell in the study, with aim of exploring the initial relationship between tracheal epithelium cell and bronchitis obliterans, and to find a method to solve the long-term survival of lung transplantation.

Neurological complications of viral hepatitis mainly include hepatic encephalopathy,hepatic myelopathy,peripheral neuropathy,meningoencephalitis,and epilepsy.Hepatic encephalopathy is a common complication with mature diagnosis and treatment methods,and the other complications are relatively uncommon and lack treatment methods.This article introduces the classification,clinical manifestation,and treatment of each complication,in order to find the optimal therapies for neurological complications of viral hepatitis.

Uihgur medicine is not only an important component of medicine for ethnic minorities in China,but an vital supplement to modern medicine.With the development of modern science,in recent years good progerss has been made in basic sciences and applied research of Uighur medicine.According to the property of Uighur materia medica,medicine can be divided into hot,cold,wet,dry,dry-hot,wet-hot,wet-cold,and dry-cold types,and according to strength of medicinal properties,this medicine is divided into four classes.Most of the drugs of levels 3 and 4 are credited with toxicity.This article summarizes the property and toxicity of medicines of levels 3 and 4 which are includel in Pharmaceutical Standards-Uighur Medicine (1998) edited by the former State Ministry of Health of the People's Republic of China.

Among esophageal cancer patients who had undergone radical surgery, the overall 5-year survival rate ranges from 20% to 30%. Postoperative radiotherapy is important adjunctive and remedial treatment. However, currently, there is no clear consensus on the indication of postoperative radiotherapy, the optimal radiation fields and dose. We review and summarize the relevant studies for clinical references.
