Objective To analyze the clinical, endoscopic and histopathological features of eosinophilic gastroenteritis ( EG) in children. Methods A retrospective study of 76 children with EG was performed to analyze clinical symptoms, laboratory and imaging results, endoscopic and pathological features, status of Helicobacter pylori ( H. pylori) infection, treatment and outcomes. Results The main clinical symptoms were abdominal pain in 55. 3%(42/76) cases, vomiting in 39. 5% (30/76) cases and hematochezia in 38. 2% cases( 29/76) . The hemoglobin level decreased significantly in 34 cases ( 44. 7%, 34/76). Peripheral blood eosinophil (EOS) count increased significantly in 9 cases (11. 8%,9/76) and EOS percentage increased significantly in 13 cases(17. 1%,13/76). Total serum IgE elevated in 32 cases ( 54. 2%, 32/59 ) . There were also 18 cases ( 36. 7%, 18/49 ) positive in serum allergen?specific immunoglobulin E ( sIgE) test and 25 cases ( 32. 9%,25/76) positive in fecal occult blood test. Among 51 cases of abdominal ultrasound examination, there were 7 cases of ascites, 4 cases of pelvis fluid and 3 cases of intestinal wall change. Endoscopic examination in 76 cases showed 63 cases ( 82. 9%) of mucosal hyperemia/edema,20 cases ( 26. 3%) of ulceration, 17 cases ( 22. 4%) of erosion, 11 cases ( 14. 5%) of nodularity or hyperplasia and 9 cases ( 11. 8%) of normal mucosa. The pathological examination showed mucosal inflammation with a large number of EOS infiltration(≥20 per HPF).There were 12 cases(15. 8%, 12/76) of H. pylori infection. Among the 76 cases, clinical symptoms improved significantly in 74 patients after treatment with dietary allergen avoidance, anti?allergy medications, antacids, montelukast and corticosteroid, and the total efficacy was 97. 4%. The efficacy of dietary allergen avoidance, anti?allergy medications, antacids and montelukast was 93. 8%( 61/65 ) . The efficacy of corticosteroid was 86. 7%(13/15). Conclusion The clinical manifestations and endoscopic characteristics of EG in children lack specificity. In terms of diagnosis, the elevated total serum IgE and the positive sIgE test may be taken as reference for the diagnosis of EG. The definite diagnosis is based on pathological examination ( EOS infiltration≥20 per HPF).While in terms of treatment, dietary allergen exclusion, anti?allergy medications, antacids and montelukast are highly effective, which can be taken as the first option. There is no need of corticosteroid as routine therapy.

Objective:To prepare a progressive gradient-aperture scaffold composed of silk fibroin(SF)-chitosan(CS)-nano-hydroxyapatite(nHAp)for osteochondral repair.Method:The SF solution, CS solution and nHA suspension were mixed in vitro at equal proportions.The progressive gradient osteochondral(OC)scaffold-1(2%), scaffold-2(3%)and scaffold-3(4%)was respectively prepared by using centrifugation, vacuum freeze-drying, chemical cross-linking and three shaping steps.General conditions, porosity, hot water dissolution rate, water swelling rate, compression water swelling rate, water swelling rate after dissolution, mechanical properties, internal structure observation and pore size were measured.Rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs)were cultured and the scaffold extract was prepared.The effect of scaffold extract on the proliferation of BMSCs was detected by the cell counting kit-8(CCK-8)method.BMSCs were co-cultured with the scaffold, and the distribution and morphology of the cells around the scaffold were observed.Results:The structure of scaffold was regular in each group and the porosity was more than 80%.Along with the increase of the material concentration, the water swelling rate of the scaffold was decreased gradually( P<0.05). Compared with before compression, the water swelling rate of scaffold-1 was decreased after compression( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the hot water dissolution rate among all groups( all P>0.05), and the complete dissolution of the scaffold-1, scaffold-2 and scaffold-3 in vitro required 65.9, 60.9, and 73.9weeks, respectively.The elastic modulus of scaffolds in above three groups were 0.0955, 0.1762 and 0.3468 MPa, respectively.The examination results of scanning electron microscope(SEM)showed that the internal structure of scaffold was honeycomb in each group, the pore shape was regular, which showed an inter-connected pore network.The pore distribution was gradually dense and the pore diameter gradually decreased from the cartilage side to the osteogenic side( P<0.05), and the nHAp content increased gradually.The scaffold extract had no obvious toxicity to the growth and proliferation of BMSCs in each group.After BMSCs were seeded on scaffolds and co-cultured for 5 days, the cells grew well without obvious cell death or morphological abnormalities. Conclusions:In this study, a progressive gradient pore size OC scaffold is successfully prepared with good physical properties and biocompatibility, which is expected to be a new bio-mimetic composite scaffold material for repairing OC defects.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the plasma levels of coagulation factor VII (FVII) and polymorphisms of FVII gene in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD), and evaluate the effect of plasma FVII levels and FVII gene polymorphisms on CHD.
METHODSPlasma FVIIa, FVII: Ag and FVIIc were measured and polymorphisms of FVII gene were analyzed in 149 control cases and 60 CHD cases, including 33 acute myocardial infarction (AMI) cases by a combination of polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) and agarose gel electrophoresis.
RESULTSFVIIa, FVIIc in AMI group were significantly higher than that in control group, but FVII: Ag wasn't. There were no significant difference in plasma FVIIa, FVII: Ag and FVIIc between CHD and control group. The IVS7 genotypic frequency in AMI group was significantly different from that in control group. There was no significant difference in genotypic frequencies and allelic frequencies in other polymphism sites. FVII: Ag was significantly higher in -402A homozygote than that in -402G homozygote.
CONCLUSIONSIncreased FVII levels, especially FVIIa and FVIIc in plasma, may contribute to coronary artery thrombosis. There was significant difference in IVS7 genotype frequency between control and AMI groups, but the rest weren't significantly different. FVII: Ag was significantly higher in -402A homozygote than that in -402G homozygote. Polymorphism of -402 G/A may play an indirect role in AMI by regulating plasma FVII levels.

At present, a common lack of basic scientific research training in the undergraduate education is one of the reasons restricting the innovation ability of undergraduates. Cultivating scientific research ability of undergraduates is one of the effective ways to improve the undergraduate professional education as well as the innovation ability. Therefore, after exploration and summary for years, we have formed a relatively mature new mode that cultivates the undergraduates' comprehensive abilities in scientific research, namely, the training system of scientific research ability of medical undergraduates guided by literature reading. It has improved the basic scientific quality and innovation ability of medical undergraduates in our university, and trained a group of outstanding undergraduates who have obtained various achievements, contributing to the construction of excellent postgraduate talents in our university. In addition, it is also an effective and feasible new teaching mode.

Objective To investigate distribution and antimicrobial resistance among nosocomial pathogens from 13 teaching hospitals in China in 2009. Methods Non-repetitive pathogens from nosocomial BSI, HAP and IAI were collected and sent to the central lab for MIC determination by agar dilution method.WHONET5.6 software was used to analyze the data. Results A total of 2 502 clinical isolates were collected. The top three pathogens of BSI were Escherichia coli [27. 1% (285/1 052 )] , coagulase-negutive staphylococcus [12. 6% ( 133/1 052)] and Klebsiella pneumoniae [10. 8% ( 114/1 052)]. The top three pathogens of HAP were Acinetobacter baumannii [28. 8% (226/785)], Pseudomonas aeruginosa [16. 1% (126/785)] and Klebsiella pneumoniae [14.6% (115/785 )] . The top three pathogens of IAI were Escherichia coli[31.0% ( 206/665 )], Klebsiella pneumonia [11.3% ( 75/665 )] and Enterococcus faecium [10. 8% (72/665)]. Against Escherichia coil and Klebsiella spp. , the antimicrobial agents with higher than 80% susceptibility rate included imipenem and meropenem (98. 1%-100% ), tigecycline (95.3%-100% ), piperacillin-tazobactam ( 88.6% -97. 1% ) and amikacin ( 88. 3% -92. 5% ). Against Enterobacter spp. , Citrobacter spp. and Serratia spp. , the susceptibility rates of tigecycline were 93.5% -100% whereas the value of imipenem and meropenem were 92.9% -100%. Other antimicrobial agents with high activity included amikacin ( 85.2% -96. 7% ), pipcracillin-tazobactam ( 82.4% -96.4% ), cefepime ( 79. 6% -96. 7% ) and cefoperazonc-sulbactam (78. 7%-90. 0% ). Polymyxin B showed the highest susceptibility rateagainst Pseudomonas aeruginosa ( 100% ), followed by amikacin ( 81.9% ) and piperacillin-tazobactam (80.1% ). Polymyxin B also showed the highest susceptibility rate against Acinetobacter baumannii (98. 8% ), followed by tigecycline (90. 1% ) and minocycline (72. 0% ). The incidence of carbapenemresistant Acinetobacter baumannii was 60. 1%. The MRSA rate was 60. 2% and the MRSCoN rate was 84. 2%. All Staphylococcus strains were susceptible to tigecycline, vancomycin, teicoplanin and linezolid except for one isolate of Staphylococcus haemolysis with intermediate to teicoplanin. Two Enterococcus faecalis isolates which were intermediate to linezolid and one Enterococcus faecium isolate which was resistant to vancomycin and teicoplanin was found in this surveillance, while the MICs of tigecycline against these three isolates were 0. 032-0. 064 μg/ml. Conclusions Tigecycline, carbapenems, piperacillin-tazobactam,amikacin and cefepime remain relatively high activity against nosocomial Enterobacteriaceae. Pseudomonas aeruginosa exhibite high susceptibility to polymyxin B, while Acinetobacter baumanni shows high susceptibility to polymyxin B and tigecycline. Tigecycline, vancomycin, teicoplanin and linezolid remain high activity against nosocomial gram-positive cocci.
