Objective To explore the application and efficacy of one-stage gastric transposition in long-gap esophageal atresia.Methods 11 patients of long-gap esophageal atresia who received one-stage gastric transposition treatment from March 2008 to December 2013 were analyzed.8 male and 3 female babies were included in the study.The diagnosis was made based on esophageal radiography.And there were 2 cases of type Ⅰ and 9 cases of type Ⅲ a.Results All procedures were completed,9 cases were cured,1 case died and 1 case refused further treatment after operation.6 cases developed pneumonia postoperatively,2 cases had signs of stoma leakage.All cases were followed up for 6 months to 5 years.3 cases had anastomotic stricture and they were cured by balloon dilation.6 cases had mild gastroesophageal reflux but no anti-reflux procedure was needed.And gastroesophageal reflux symptoms were improved by smaller meals and appreciate the feeding treatment.Conclusion One-stage gastric transposition is feasible and acceptable in treating long-gap esophageal atresia in neonates,it can avoid staging operation,shorten the treatment period,and help to improve the cure rate.

Objective To explore the expression of miR-21 and miR-19a in juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) and the relationship among the key target genes (SOCS3,STAT3) in JAK/STAT pathways.Methods The venous blood from 33 cases of active JIA in Guangzhou Women and Children Medical Center were collected.All cases were divided into two groups:the systemic group (n=20),polyarthritis group (n=13).Twenty subjects were used as the normal control group.Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were extracted and separated with Ficoll.miRNA was extracted and purified and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to obtain cDNA.Target genes of miRNA were detected through Targetscan and RNA22.U6 was used for reference of miR-19a,miR-21 and β-actin were used for STAT3,SOCS3,IL-6,TNF-α mRNA.All the expression were detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR among the groups and calculated the result in standardized 2-ΔΔCT value,non-parametric test was used to test the differences.Results The expression of miR-21 were significantly reduced in the case group than the control group (Z=2.11,P=0.036),in which miR-21 was 7(7-8.5) times reduced than the SJIA group,6.49 (6-7) times than the pJIA group,the difference was statistically significant (Z=2.615,P=0.014 9;Z=2.654,P=0.0291).But no significant difference of miR-21 expression could be found between the SJIA and PJIA groups (Z=0.221,P =0.827 1).The expression of miR-19a was significantly reduced in the case group than the control group (Z=2.41,P=0.014),in which miR-19a was 11.3 (10-12.1) times to the SJIA group,12.2 (12-13.5) times to the pJIA group,the difference was statistically significant (Z=2.334,P=0.015 7;Z=2.414,P=0.026 6).But no significant difference could be detected in the miR-21 expression between the SJIA and the PJIA groups (Z=0.538,P=0.596).Software estimated that STAT3,SOCS3,TNF-α were the target genes of miR-21 and miR-19a in the JAK/STAT pathways respectively.Fluorescence quantitative PCR had shown that mRNA expression of STAT3 [6.24(2.81,7.54) and 3.97(1.81,5.75),P=0.001,0.008],TNF-α [3.03(2.07,3.80) and 3.42(2.46,4.68),P=0.002,0.001],IL-6[4.75(3.59,6.32) and 3.52(2.31,7.51),P=0.006,0.036],SOCS3[2.54(1.77,4.00) and 3.57(1.95,3.83),P=0.003,0.001] was higher in the case Group (SJIA group,the PJIA group) than the control group;STAT3 mRNA expression was negatively correlated with the miR-21 (r=-0.585 4,P=0.006 7;r=-0.613 4,P=0.044 7) and there was statistically significant difference.TNF-α,SOCS3 mRNA expression in the case group (SJIA group,PJIA group) was negatively correlated with the miR-19a.TNF-α (r=-0.664 2,P=0.001 4),SOCS3 (r=-0.790 3,P=0.000 1) of the SJIA group,was higher than those of the PJIA group TNF-α (r=-0.626 1,P=0.039 3),SOCS3 (r=-0.8824,P=0.003),the difference was significant.Conclusion The expression of miR-21,miR-19a in PBMC in the JIA patients are lower than the control group.The high expression of the target genes,miR-21,miR-19a of STAT3,SOCS3,TNF-α suggest that these genes might associate with,activating of JAK/STAT pathway.

Objective To analyze tissue vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1 (VEGFR-1)and VEGFR-2 and their soluble form (sVEFGR-1 and sVEGFR-2) in the plasma in patients with preeclampsia,and to explore its clinical significance.Methods sVEGFR-1 and sVEGFR-2 expressions in plasma of normal pregnancy women and preeclampsia patients were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbnent assay (ELISA) ; VEGFR-1,VEGFR-2,sVEGFR-1 and sVEGFR-2 mRNA expressions of normal pregnancy women and preeclampsia patients in placenta were detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).Results ELISA results showed that the level of sVEGFR-1 in plasma of normal control group before and after delivery was (12.33 ± 1.52) ng/ml and (4.55 ± 0.31) ng/ml,respectively,while that of preeclampsia group was (77.25 ± 9.47) ng/ml and (8.13 ± 0.74) ng/ml,respectively; the differences between before and after delivery in the two groups were of statistical significance.The level of sVEGFR 2 in plasma of normal control group before and after delivery was (8.74 ± 1.24) ng/ml and (6.43± 0.55) ng/ml,respectively,while that of preeclampsia group was (5.69 ± 0.75) ng/ml and (4.96 ±0.67) ng/ml,respectively.RT-PCR results were consistent with ELISA results.Conclusions Rapid decrease of plasma sVEGFR-1 and continuously low-level expression of plasma sVEGFR-2 indicated that VEGFR-1 might be closely related to preeclampsia,and decrease of plasma sVEGFR-2 in preeclampsia women might be taken as a marker of endothelial cell function disorder.

Objective To exPlore the efficacy of nutritional interVention in Patients with chronic obstructiVe Pulmonary disease (COPD) and malnutrition risks. Methods From Jan. ,2008 to Dec. ,2012,829 COPD Patients with NRS2002 score≥3 in Qinzhou Second PeoPle's HosPital were enrolled in this study. Patients were randomized into control grouP (254 cases) and treatment grouP (575 cases) by random numerical table of SPSS 13. 0 statistic software. Patients without contraindication to enteral nutrition were giVen enteral nutrition suPPort,while those with contraindication to enteral nutrition were giVen Parenteral nutrition suPPort. Patients in the treatment grouP receiVed intensiVe suPPort with fortified nutrition,whereas Patients in the control grouP receiVed routine nutrition treatment. All other treatment methods were the same between the two grouPs. TelePhone follow_uP lasted for 3 years in both grouPs after discharge. Patients in the treatment grouP with NRS2002 score≥3 were giVen guidance on nutrition food intake. No nutrition guide was giVen to the control grouP. Times of acute attack,times and duration of mechanical Ventilation,mortality rate,and NRS2002 score three years after the treatment were comPared between the two grouPs. Data were analyzed by multi_factor Logistic regression analysis to understand the nutritional factors of COPD Patients affecting their mortality rate. Results After 3 years of follow_uP,times of acute attack,times and duration of mechanical Ventilation were lower in the treatment grouP than in the control grouP. Mortality rate was significantly lower in the treatment grouP (0. 696%) than the control grouP (4. 724%). After treatment,NRS2002 score was PositiVely correlated with mortality rate of COPD Patients with malnutrition risks. Conclusion For the COPD Patients with malnutrition risks, actiVe nutritional interVention can imProVe their nutrition status ( lower NRS2002 score) ,increase the number of resPiratory muscles to alleViate anoxia,enhance cellular immune function, and thus imProVe their Prognosis.

Background and purpose:hTERT is indistinct in the effect of neo-adjuvant chemotherapy. Our aim was to detect both expression of hTERT mRNA and protein in breast cancer tissue and their changes after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Methods:From Feb 2004 to Jun 2007, 53 cases with untreated advanced breast cancer were enrolled. All patients received CEF chemotherapy three cycles. The breast cancer tissue was collected before and after chemotherapy. hTERT mRNA and protein expression were detected by RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry techniques. Results:The positive hTERT mRNA and protein expression in breast cancer tissue before chemotherapy were 77.4% and 73.6% respectively, and after neo-adjuvant chemotherapy were 28.3%,22.6% respectively.The effective rate of the neo-adjuvant chemotherapy of the patients with positive of hTERT expression was higher than those with negative hTERT expression. Conclusion:The chemo-agents altered hTERT gene expression, improved negative rate of hTERT expression. Detecting expression of hTERT gene in breast cancer tissue would be an important index for predicting the effects of neo-adjuvant chemotherapy.
