Objective To learn about the state of anxiety, related factors and demand of the family members of youngster patients with eye traumas during the operations, to improve the quality of nursing care by effectively relieve the anxiety of family memebers through appropriate intervention. Methods The anxiety and needs of family members of 148 children patients with eye traumas were investigated during the perioperative period with self-rating anxiety scale and self-designed questionnaires, and appropriate nursing was given according to the survey results. Results The anxiety score of family members was (56.93 ± 14.72), which was at higher level when the patients were just admitted. The scores statistically de creased after nursing care. The anxiety was related to factors such as the security and the effect of the operation, the technical level of the surgeon, the anesthesia method (general anesthesia),the age of the children patients and the emergency operation. Conclusions Nursing staff can effectively relieve the anxiety of the family members of children patients during perioperative period by supplying special care according to their different demands.

Objective To explore the influence of intestinal trefoil factor (ITF) on interleukin-6(IL-6) in neonatal rat with necrotizing enterocolitis(NEC) ,and to discuss the protective machanism of ITF on NEC.Methods Thirty-two neonatal rats were divided randomly into four groups,group A as control group,group B as NEC group,group C as NEC+NS 0.2 mL group,group D as NEC+ITF 0.2 mg group.NEC model of neonatal rats were established.On the 4th day,all the subjects were put to death.Intestinal tissue within the boundary of ileum and cecum was obtained to observe histological changes.Other intestinal tissue was treated into homogenate.After the homogenate was centrifuged,supernates were used to test the density of IL-6.Results The density of IL-6 significantly decreased in group A,D than those in group B and C (Pa0.05).The pathological lesions indicated that intestinal tissue necrosis was severe in group B and C,which was graded as 3 points,but obviously lessen in group D,which was graded as 1 point,with ITF interfering.Conclusions Intestinal inflammation is ameliorated after ITF are injected hypodermically or intraperitoneally.ITF may provide a brand-new way for the therapy of NEC in neonatal rats.

Objective To explore the property and diagnostic significancec of transnasal gastroscope(EG-470N5)in children with upper gastrointestinal tract disorders.Methods Sixty children with upper gastrointestinal tract disorders were examined by using EG-470N5.The scope was inserted either through nose(n=28)or via mouth(n=32).Beside the routine preparations,nasal spray of lidocaine or nasal drib of ephedrine was added to those who received nasal intubation.Results Examination of upper gastrointestinal tract subjects in all succed with no obvious side response in 28 cases(46.7%)who received the examination via nose,27 cases(45%)had mild nausea and 5 cases(8.3%)had serious nausea and dysphoria.Children with esophagostenosis and pyloristenosis and 2-day-old neonate were examined without adverse effect.Conclusions Transnasal gastroscope is preponderant to children due to its slim diameter and supple body,especially to those having swallow difficulty and confined tract.It is more favorable practical prospect than routine gastroscope.

Chronic osteomyelitis is one of the most common disorder in clinic. In recent years due to diabetes, peripheral vascular disease and trauma induced disease increased, the prevalence rate increased. With the development of magnetic resonance imaging and CT imaging technology, it greatly improved the accuracy of clinical diagnosis of chronic osteomyclitis and ability to describe the infection characteristics, and provide a reliable basis for clinical treatment. The current research on chronic osteomyelitis mainly concentrated on the aspects of imaging applications and ways of using antibiotic optimization control inflammation, defect restoration and reconstruction of blood supply and treatment. But the best time to the antibiotic therapy and the use of program is still uncertain, for after debridement, bone grafting time and defect repair function of fast recovery still need further research.

Objective To study the association between functional genetic polymorphisms of IL-1B(T-31C,C-511T),IL-1RN and the susceptibility to gastric cancers. Methods A case-control study was conducted in 180 gastric cancer cases and 308 age-and sex-matched cancer-free controls.Genotypes were detected by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism(PCR-RFLP) assays,and association between genotypes,environmental factors and risk of gastric cancers were determined. Results IL-1B T-31C was in strong linkage disequilibrium with IL-1B C-511T(D'=0.862,R2= 0.721,P=0.000).Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the variant genotypes of IL-1B T-31C and C-511T were not significantly associated with risks for gastric cancers(adjusted OR,0.95 and 95% CI,0.62-1.47 for IL-1B T-31C;and adjusted OR,0.85 and 95% CI,0.55-1.31 for IL-1B C-511T).The variant genotypes(1/2,2/2) in IL-1RN were associated with a non-significantly increased risks for gastric cancers(adjusted OR,1.32 and 95% CI,0.71-2.36) in all subjects and with a significantly increased risks for gastric cancers in subjects with H.pylori infection(adjusted OR,2.03 and 95%CI,1.02-4.80).Conclusion The functional genetic polymorphisms of IL-1RN may contribute to the risks of gastric cancers in high-risk population,particularly in those with H.pylori infection.

Objective To investigate the effects of heparin coating on intimal hyperplasia in implanted decellularized xenografts.Methods The resected canie carotid arteries were decellularized,and heparin coating was partially performed.Eighteen rabbits were divided into non-heparin-coated group(n=9)and heparin-coated group(n=9).During implantation,only the left carotid between the anastomotic stoma was ligated.Doppler ultrasonography was performed 1,3 and 12 weeks post-implantation to measure the luminal diameter,and the hemodynamic parameters such as PSV,RI and PI were calculated.All animals were sacrificed,histological observations were conducted at 12 weeks post-implantation,and I/(I+ M)was calculated.Results Except for 1 week post-implantation in the ligated side,the luminal diameters in non-heparin -coated group were significantly smaller than that of pre-implantation.Besides,those of the non-ligated side at each time points were significantly smaller than the ligated side(P

OBJECTIVETo investigate the significance of cytokine interleukin-12p40 (IL-12p40) and interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) in tissues formation and development of human oral lichen planus (OLP).

METHODSThe tissues of 11 cases of normal oral epithelium and 43 cases of OLP were investigated for the expression of IL-12p40 and IFN-gamma proteins by using Envision two-step immunohistochemistry. The correlations between the expressions of these two cytokines, and their clinical and pathological significance in OLP were analyzed.

RESULTS1) IL-12p40 and IFN-gamma proteins were up-regulated in OLP comparing with that in normal oral mucosa and there was statistical significance between their difference (P < 0.05). 2) The percentage of positive IL-12p40 staining in OLP of IFN-gamma positive group was higher than IFN-gamma negative group and there was statistical significance between their difference (Chi2 = 5.828, P = 0.016). A positive correlation was found between IL-12p40 and IFN-gamma proteins in OLP (Spearman r = 0.357, P = 0.019). 3) The percentage of positive IL-12p40 staining in OLP with short course (< 6 months) was higher than that in OLP with long course (> 6 months; Chi2 = 7.935, P = 0.005), and a significant association was found between IFN-gamma over expression and the degeneration of base cells in OLP lesions (Chi2 = 9.070, P = 0.011).

CONCLUSIONThese results indicate that at the primary phase of OLP, IL-12 may drive the pathological destruction in OLP lesions by elevating IFN-gamma protein locally. IFN-gamma may play an important role for the pathological destruction in OLP lesions.

Osteoclasts are multinucleated giant cell, which derived from mononuclear myeloid hematopoietic stem cells with the function of bone absorption. Osteoclasts plays a key role in bone metabolism, therefore the body is very strict to regulation of osteoclastogenesis. Mobilization and differentiation of osteoclast maturation is a complex and sophisticated multi-level regulatory processes. In the relevant regulatory mechanisms, OPG/RANKL/RANK system plays a pivotal role in the process of osteoclast differentiation and maturation. Recent studies revealed that immune cells and osteoclasts were closely connect with each other in the field of bone metabolism, also provide a new therapeutic target for the treatment of bone diseases. The apoptosis of osteoclasts in bone metabolism have been payed more attention,while its mechanism is still not clear, which need further research.
