ObjectiveTo explore the early diagnosis and effective treatment of redundant colon,and to reduce the misdiagnosis and shorten the medical treatment time before the diagnosis.MethodsClinical data of twentyseven patients with redundant colon from February 2005 to December 2011 were retrospectively analyzed in General Surgery Department of 117th and 322th People's Liberation Army Hospital.ResultsThe clinical symptoms of 27 patients nainly as early recurrent intractable constipation,bloating,abdominal pain,weight loss and other symptoms,were likely to be in a misdiagnosis.In addition to three patients with redundant sigmoid colon concurrent reverse came to hospital emergency with surgery,twenty-four cases' symptoms persisted and came to many hospitals with medical treatment up to 32 years,diagnosed by the out-patient barium enema.After surgical resection disease bowel,7-11 months follow-up,patients abdominal distension,abdominal pain,constipation,weight loss and other systemic unwell symptoms disappeared.ConclusionThis disease is rare,we must raise the medical staff's awareness of this disease.X-ray examination with barium enema is the best way to diagnose this disease.After diagnosis,surgery is the most effective treatment.

The prevalence of acute flaccid paralysis (AFP) associated with EV71 and the genetic variation in Fujian , China from 2003 to 2012 was investigated in this study .Descriptive epidemiology was used to analyze the epidemiologic and clinical features of AFP cases associated with EV 71 .Phylogenetic analysis was performed to explore the genetical characteris-tics of EV71 based on the complete VP1 nucleotide and amino acid sequences .Results showed that the mean incidence of EV71-associated AFP in children under 15 years old was 2 .24/10 000 000 in Fujian Province during 2003 and 2012 ,based on the number of EV71 isolates and the reported AFP cases .And the incidence has increased since 2008 .The EV71 strains isolated from the AFP cases or from the healthy contacts were distributed in 9 prefectures of Fujian Province ,most in the months of May and June .Of 76 .0% (19/25) of AFP cases associated with EV 71 were the children under 3 years and the male-to-female ratio was 1 .5 :1 .Twenty out of twenty-two cases (90 .91% ) had fevers before the onset of paralysis .Most cases had unilater-al limb paralysis (14/22 ,63 .6% ) .Typical manifestations of hand-foot-and-mouth disease (HFMD) were observed in five cases before the onset of paralysis .Residual paralysis was observed in two cases during the follow-up visits .The strains isolated from 25 cases belonged to genotype C4 .All other strains belonged to subtype C4a except the subtype C4b strains isolated in 2003 .The homology among the strains was high in 2009-2011 ,and the homology among these strains and the representative strains in Fuyang ,Anhui Province was also in the high level .Therefore ,it was possible that the isolated strains had the same origin and might cause the epidemic .In conclusion ,an AFP surveillance system could be developed for analyzing the incidence of AFP associated with EV71 ,determining the features of the isolates ,and describing the intensity and trends of EV71 epidem-ics .

AIM:TodetecthemoglobinA1c(HbA1c)andparametersofbloodglucosefluctuationinChinesenewlydiag-nosed type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients, and further to specify the factors that were related to mean blood glucose (MBG) in this population.METHODS:Newly diagnosed T2DM patients (n=90) from 4 hospitals in Guangdong province were enrolled, and subjected to 3 d continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) after testing for HbA1c and other laboratory tests.Blood glucose data collected during CGM were used to calculate MBG and parameters of blood glucose fluctuation.RESULTS: Correlation analysis revealed that MBG was significantly related to all parameters of blood glucose fluctuation, HbA1c, fast plasma glucose ( FPG) and 2 h postprandial glucose (P<0.01), but not to sex, age or blood lipid profile.Further analysis utilizing step-wise general linear model showed that HbA1c, absolute means of daily difference ( MODD) , difference between maximal and minimal glucose ( DMMG) and FPG had the strongest relation to MBG.CONCLUSION: Factors affecting MBG of the newly diagnosed T2DMpatients in our country include HbA1c, FPG, DMMG and MODD, and thus it may be prone to misleading results that only HbA1c is applied to estimate MBG in this population.

Objective:To investigate the teaching effect of the single-circulation organ system integration course Nervous System and Disease for pediatrics 5+3 program, to guide the teaching practice of the integration course, and to promote the education and teaching reform of pediatrics.Methods:A total of 56 students of the class of 2019 in the pediatrics 5+3 program of Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine were selected as subjects, and the single-circulation organ system integration course was used for teaching. With the course of Nervous System and Disease as an example, evaluation results and questionnaires were used to assess the teaching effect of the single-circulation organ system course for pediatrics from the aspects of general information, course scores, student satisfaction, and expert supervision. SPSS 22.0 was used to perform descriptive statistics and analyses.Results:The course of Neurological System and Diseases integrated the contents of 11 related disciplines, with a mean score of (74.60±7.52) points. The scores of the students for course content, teaching mode, teaching resources, teaching effect, and the degree of overall satisfaction with the course were (4.71±0.54), (4.35±0.81), (4.50±0.69), (4.50±0.72), and (4.30±0.66), respectively. The score of expert supervision was (26.38±2.06) for teaching content and (26.52±2.03) for teaching methods, which still needed to be improved.Conclusions:The construction of the single-circulation organ system integration course provides new ideas for the curriculum reform of pediatrics; however, it is necessary to improve the construction of system and mechanism, explore the coordinated development of teachers, and strengthen deep integration and student guidance, thereby improving the teaching effect of the integrated course of pediatrics and promoting the training of medical talents in pediatrics.

Objective In this study,we attempted to investigate whether Electroacupuncture(EA)could promote the autophagy function in macrophages of inflammatory skin tissues by activating CB2 receptor,thus relieving inflammatory pain induced by CFA in mice,and whether activation of CB2 receptor in NR8383 macrophages cell line can simulate the effect of EA on the autophagy function and mitochondrial damage.Methods Inflammatory pain model was induced by CFA injection into the planta the hind paw of wildtype and CB2 knockout mice.EA or sham EA was applied on the left Huantiao(GB30)and Yanglingquan(GB34)sites.Thermal hyperalgesia was determined with the Hargreaves test.Mechanical sensitivity was assessed with von Frey filaments.NR8383 microphage cell line was used to study the effect of CB2 activation on macrophage function induced by CFA.The expression level of autophagy protein LC3 and p62 in wildtype and CB2 knockout mice skin tissue and NR8383 cell line were determined by Western blot.And flow cytometry analysis was applied to detect damaged mitochondria and mitochondrial superoxide.Results CFA significantly reduced the thermal and mechanical pain threshold in both wildtype and CB2 knockout mice,comparing with the vehicle control groups(P<0.01).EA significantly inhibited thermal and mechanical hyperpathia induced by CFA in wildtype mice(P<0.05),but had no effect on CB2 knockout mice with CFA(P>0.05).CFA significantly increased the expression of p62 protein and decreased LC3-II/I ratio,which was inversed by EA in wildtype mice but wasn't affected by EA in CB2 knockout mice.CFA increased the expression of p62 protein and decreased LC3-II/I ratio in NR8383 cell line,which were inversed by CB2 agonist AM1241.CFA increased mitochondria damage,which were then attenuated by CB2 agonist AM1241.Conclusion The analgesic effect of EA on inflammatory pain induced by CFA was mediated by activation of CB2 receptor,which promoted the autophagy function and the clearance of damaged mitochondria in macrophage.

Objective: To explore age-based clinical and immune parameters in Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP) to determine clinically useful markers reflecting disease characteristic. Methods: A cohort of 502 patients with HSP were enrolled into this retrospective study to evaluate their clinical and immune data. Results: Majority HSP cases occurred at age ≤14 years and showed significant immune imbalances of ESR, CD3⁺ cells, CD4⁺ cells, CD3^-CD16⁺CD56⁺ cells, CD4⁺/CD8⁺ cells, IgG, IgA, IgM, IgE, complements C3/C4 and ASO in the acute phase. Compared to patients aged >14 years, symptoms of joint were more frequent at disease onset in patients aged ≤14 years (20.8% vs 7.6%, χ²=13.547, P<0.001) , and involvement of digestive tract and joint were also more frequent (57.4% vs 33.8%, χ²=24.106, P<0.001; 55.9% vs 32.5%, χ²=23.768, P<0.001, respectively) , but not for involvement of kidney (21.4% vs 51.3%, χ²=42.440, P<0.001) . The patients aged ≤14 years had distinct immune state, reductions of CD3⁺ cells, CD4⁺ cells and IgG were more frequent than patients aged >14 years, also increase of ASO (33.1% vs 20.0%, χ²=6.656, P=0.010) , but not increase of IgA (2.6% vs 39.4%, χ²=15.582, P<0.001) . In addition, reduction of IgG and increase of IgE were positively associated with digestive tract involvement (P<0.001, P=0.001, respectively) , reduction of CD3⁺CD4⁺ cells and normal IgM were positively associated with joint involvement (P=0.004, P=0.003, respectively) , increase of CD3⁺CD8⁺ cells and normal CD3⁺ cells were positively associated with kidney involvement (P=0.032, P=0.014, respectively) . Conclusion HSP showed significant immune imbalance in the acute phase, patients between aged ≤14 and >14 years had distinct clinical and immune characteristic, and abnormal immune parameters were significantly associated with organ involvements.

Objective:To collect the simple interventions in pediatric biomedical research and analyze the risk condition, to establish the minimal risk evaluation criteria, thus to provide the scientific method for the ethical re-view of pediatric biomedical research. Methods:The expert consultation was carried out on the minimal risk evalu-ation of the simple interventions for pediatric biomedical research, and 25 experts from 11 medical institutions car-rying out children' s clinical research were selected to conduct 2 rounds of expert consultation. Results:25 valid questionnaires were collected, and the positive coefficient of the respondents was 100％. The judgment and famili-arity or degree of attention on the related problems was 0 . 764 . The minimal risk evaluation criteria of 25 simple in-terventions in 4 dimensions were determined. Conclusion: We determine the minimal risk evaluation criteria for simple interventions in pediatric biomedical research using the Delphi method, and the research results were relia-ble and could provide a reference for the ethical review of pediatric biomedical research.

Background: Both type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) and metabolic syndrome (MetS) are associated with an elevated risk of morbidity and mortality yet with increasing heterogeneity. This study primarily aimed to evaluate the prevalence of MetS among adult patients with T1DM in China and investigate its associated risk factors, and relationship with microvascular complications. Methods: We included adult patients who had been enrolled in the Guangdong T1DM Translational Medicine Study conducted from June 2010 to June 2015. MetS was defined according to the updated National Cholesterol Education Program criterion. Logistic regression models were used to estimate the odds ratio (OR) for the association between MetS and the risk of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) and diabetic retinopathy (DR). Results: Among the 569 eligible patients enrolled, the prevalence of MetS was 15.1%. While female gender, longer diabetes duration, higher body mass index, and glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) were risk factors associated with MetS (OR, 2.86, 1.04, 1.14, and 1.23, respectively), received nutrition therapy education was a protective factor (OR, 0.46). After adjustment for gender, age, diabetes duration, HbA1c, socioeconomic and lifestyle variables, MetS status was associated with an increased risk of DKD and DR (OR, 2.14 and 3.72, respectively; both P<0.05). Conclusion Although the prevalence of MetS in adult patients with T1DM in China was relatively low, patients with MetS were more likely to have DKD and DR. A comprehensive management including lifestyle modification might reduce their risk of microvascular complications in adults with T1DM.

Objective:To explore the anatomical and clinical effects of lateral-perineal approach in treating the fracture of inferior ramus of pubis-ischium ramus.Methods:The lateral approach of the perineum was simulated on 10 side of 5 intact wet adult cadavers to determine the surface symbols of incision design and to expose the operative field of the approach and to observe the anatomical characteristics of the perineal branch of the posterior femoral cutaneous nerve and the incision of the surgical approach. Five points were selected at the incision of the approach. The distance (L 1-L 5) between each point and the body surface projection of the perineal branch of the posterior femoral cutaneous nerve was measured. A total of 11 patients, including 5 males and 6 females with an average age of 41.55±14.32 years, ranging from 18 to 62 years, were treated by this approach in clinical practice. All patients had a reduction and fixation to the fracture of inferior ramus of pubis-ischium ramus. The operation duration, incision length, intraoperative blood loss and surgical complications were recorded. The quality of fracture reduction was evaluated according to Matta radiographic criteria. The strength of the adductor was measured. The pelvic function was evaluated according to Majeed Pelvic Score at the last follow-up. Results:Anatomical studies shown that the line between the two points. One point was 4 cm lateral to the level of the apex of the pubic arch. Another point was 4 cm from the ischial tubercle on the line from the ischial tuberosity to the point that 4 cm lateral to the level of the apex of the pubic arch was the axis of the approach lateral of the perineum. Anatomical studies showed that the lateral-perineal approach could expose the range from pubic symphysis to sciatic tuberculum. The distance between the points selected at the incision of the approach and the body surface projection of the perineal branch of the posterior femoral cutaneous nerve: L 1 was 19.40±1.17 mm, ranging from 18 to 21 mm; L 2 was 16.60±2.76 mm, ranging from 10 to 20 mm; L 3 was 18.30±1.89 mm, ranging from 16 to 21 mm; L 4 was 19.20±1.93 mm, ranging from 16 to 22 mm; L 5 was 14.70±1.83 mm, ranging from 13 to 18 mm. All patients were followed up for 17.91±4.09 months, ranging from 13 to 26 months. The incision length was 8.18±0.98 cm, ranging from 7 to 10 cm. The operation duration was 59.64±12.17 min, ranging from 43 to 85 min. The intraoperative blood loss was 100 ml, ranging from 50 to 130 ml. All incisions were healed in all patients. The fractures were healed in 13.36±2.06 weeks, ranging from 10 to 16 weeks. According to Matta radiographic criteria, the quality of fracture reduction was excellent in 6 cases, good in 4 cases and fair in 1 case. At the last follow-up, the adductor muscle strength reached grade 4 in 4 patients and grade 5 in 7 patients. Furthermore, according to the Majeed Pelvic Score, the score of every patient was 86.55±9.59, ranging from 66 to 100, and 8 cases were excellent, 3 cases were good at the last follow-up. The heterotopic ossification occurred in 2 patients, the pain during intercourse occurred in 2 patients. No patient had sensory disturbance or pain in the perineal area. Conclusion:A certain safe distance is between the lateral to the perineum and the perineal branch of the posterior femoral cutaneous nerve with limited risk of injuring posterior femoral cutaneous nerve via the lateral approach of the perineum. The advantages in treating the fracture of inferior ramus of pubis-ischium ramus by this approach have concealed incision, short operation duration and less bleeding with satisfied short-term clinical effects.

Objective:To describe the current status and efficacy of additional acarbose combined with insulin therapy in adult patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) .Methods:Adult T1DM patients with acarbose combined with insulin (acarbose group) or insulin alone (insulin group), age≥18 years and disease course≥1 year, who were registered in the T1DM Translational Medicine Research Project of Guangdong Province from June 2011 to December 2014 were enrolled in the study. The hemoglobin A1c (HbA 1c), body weight, body mass index (BMI), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), insulin dosage and hypoglycemia of acarbose group and insulin group after 1 year were compared. Results:A total of 717 adult patients with T1DM were included (62 cases in acarbose group and 655 cases in insulin group). At the time of enrollment, the onset age of acarbose group was higher than that of insulin group [(31.1±12.3)years vs (27.4±12.4)years, P=0.019]; There were no significant differences in gender, age, course of disease, body weight, BMI, WHR, proportion of carbohydrate heat ≥50%, proportion of exercise time ≥150 min per week, HbA 1c, dosage of insulin, occurence of hypoglycemia and proportion of patients with dyslipidemia between the 2 groups (all P>0.05). After 1 year of follow-up, the HbA 1c in acarbose and insulin group decreased from baseline ( P=0.014, P<0.001), the body weight and BMI increased from baseline (all P<0.05), but WHR, insulin dosage and hypoglycemia occurrence were not statistically significant between the two groups (all P>0.05). After 1 year of follow-up, there were no significant difference in changes of HbA 1c, body weight, BMI, WHR, insulin dosage and hypoglycemia occurrence in acarbose group compared with insulin group from baseline (all P>0.05). Conclusions:In the clinical practice of T1DM treatment, acarbose is used more frequently in patients with a slightly older age of onset. Treatment of T1DM with insulin combined with acarbose did not increase the incidence of hypoglycemia, and no benefit was observed in improving HbA 1c, maintaining body weight, and reducing insulin use.
