Objective:To determine the inflammatory factor levels and inflammatory cell percentages in the patients with cough variant asthma (CVA ), and to clarify their potential role in the pathogenesis of CVA unresponsive to bronchodilator treatment.Methods:60 patients with CVA were randomly selected and divided into CVA unresponsive to bronchodilator treatment group (n=30)and CVA responsive to bronchodilator treatment group (n=30).As the same time 30 cases of healthy persons were used as normal control group.The levels of interluekin-8 (IL-8)and esoinophil cationic protein (ECP)in their induced sputum were detected,the classification of inflammatory cells in their induced sputum were observed, and their scores of cough symptom were recorded. Results:The IL-8 level in the induced sputum of the patients in CVA unresponsive to bronchodilator treatment group was higher than that in CVA responsive to bronchodilator treatment group and normal control group (P<0.05).The ECP level in the induced sputum of the patients in CVA unresponsive to bronchodilator treatment group was lower than that in CVA responsive to bronchodilator treatment group (P<0.05),but it was similar to the level in normal control group (P>0.05).The neutrophil percentages in the induced sputum of the patients in CVA unresponsive to bronchodilator treatment group were higher than those in CVA responsive to bronchodilator treatment group and normal control group (P<0.05).The scores of cough symptom of the patients in CVA unresponsive to bronchodilator treatment group was positively correlated with IL-8 level (r=0.764,P<0.01), and the scores of cough symptom of the patients in CVA unresponsive to bronchodilator treatment group was positively correlated with the neutrophil percentage in induced sputum (r=0.889,P<0.01).Conclusion:IL-8 and neutrophil may be associated with the incidence of CVA unresponsive to bronchodilator treatment. They can aggravate the inflammation and hypersensitivity of airway and cough symptom. The determination of IL-8 and neutrophil can be used as an accessory method in the diagnosis and j udgement of severity degree and curative effect of CVA in clinic.

Objective To investigate the expression of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase(IDO)in renal tissues of crescent nephritis and its correlation with cell proliferation and pathologic tubulointerstitial lesion.Methods Immunohistochemistry was used to detect IDO expression in renal tissues of crescent nephritis and normal renal tissues.The correlation between IDO expression and the number of proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA)positive cells or pathologic tubulointerstitial lesion were analyzed.Results IDO expression was found in the renal tubular epithelial cells of crescent nephritis,while that in the normal renal tissues was negative by immunohistochemical staining.The expression of IDO protein in tubular epithelial cells showed a significantly negative correlation with the number of PCNA positive cells or tubulointerstitial lesion of crescent nephritis.Conclusion IDO may participate in the pathogenesis of crescent nephritis by inhibiting the cell proliferation.

Objective:To investigate the rationality of prophylactic antibiotics application during perioperative period in the pa-tients with type Ⅱ incision operation in gynecology and obstetrics in our hospital after the intervention. Methods:Totally 274 medical records of obstetrics and gynecology patients with typeⅡincision operation in our hospital from April 2012 to March 2013 were collect-ed as the control group, another 321 medical records of obstetrics and gynecology patients with typeⅡincision operation in our hospital from April 2013 to March 2014 were collected as the intervention group. The rationality of prophylactic antibiotics application before and after the intervention was compared. Results:Compared with those in the control group, the average administration time, the hos-pitalization time and the cost of antimicrobial agents were significantly decreased in the intervention group (P<0. 05). The incidence of adverse drug reactions and operation incision infection between the two groups was not significant difference (P>0. 05). Compared with those in the control group, the incidence of irrational choice of antibacterial drugs, the combined use without indication, irrational medication time,over-time use, inappropriate use and improper choice of solvents in the intervention group was significantly reduced ( P<0. 05). Conclusion:After the intervention, the rationality of prophylactic antibiotics application during perioperative period in the patients with type Ⅱ incision operation in gynecology and obstetrics in our hospital is improved significantly.

A total of 144 patients with Graves disease were divided into 3 groups according to their disease courses (≤ 1 year,1 year ＜ course ≤ 5 years,＞ 5 years).The bone metabolic biochemical markers and bone mineral density (BMD) of 144 patients with Graves disease and 26 normal controls were observed.Compared with control group,serum levels of calcium,phosphate,alkaline phosphatase and urinary levels of phosphate and magnesium in Graves disease patients were significantly increased(P ＜ 0.01 or P ＜ 0.05),but serum levels of magnesium and 25 (OH) D3,1,25 (OH)2D3 were significantly decreased (P ＜ 0.01 or P ＜ 0.05).BMD of all sites in patients were significantly lower than that of normal controls (P ＜ 0.01 or P ＜ 0.05).

[ABSTRACT]OBJECTIVETo explore the clinical characteristics of benign paroxysmal positionalvertigo(BPPV) after sudden hearing loss and to observe the curative effect. METHODS36 patients with BPPV after sudden hearing loss were observed.And their therapeutic findings were compared with that of the 50 patients with primary BPPV and 40 patients of sudden hearing loss without vertigo. RESULTSBPPV after sudden hearing loss occurred in the hearing loss ears, of which 27 cases were posterior semicircular canal lithiasis and 3 cases were horizontal semicircular canal lithiasis. The 36 patients with BPPV after sudden hearing loss and 40 patients with primary BPPV were cured after several times of reposition maneuver treatment.The efficiency of 40 patients of sudden hearing loss without vertigo was higher than that of 36 patients with BPPV after sudden hearing loss.CONCLUSIONBPPV after the sudden hearing loss mainly occurs in the posterior semicircular canal. The therapeutic efficacy of canalith repositioning maneuver for the secondary BPPV was similar to that of the primary BPPV.The therapeutic efficacy of sudden hearing loss without vertigo was superior to sudden hearing loss with BPPV.

A new organic-soluble co-reactant of N,N,N’,N’-tetrakis(propyl)-pentanediamine (TPPD) was synthesized and co-immobilized with tris ( 2, 2’-bipyridine ) ruthenium ditetrakis ( 4-chlorophenyl ) borate ([Ru(bpy)3][4-(Clph)4B]2) on an indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode for electrochemiluminescent (ECL) study. The hydrophobicity of TPPD prevented its leakage from the electrode surface, thus the long-term stability of the ECL electrode was enhanced. The TPPD/[Ru(bpy)3][4-(Clph)4B]2 modified-ITO electrode exhibited strong, stable and reproducible ECL signal. The ECL signal could be quenched efficiently by phenol with a quenching efficiency of 95. 4% in the presence of 0. 1 mmol/L phenol, demonstrating the potential of the modified electrode in determination of phenolic compounds. The transient-state of the electrogenerated chemiluminescence reaction was also investigated, which revealed that the TPPD/[Ru(bpy)3][4-(Clph)4B]2 modified-ITO electrode had a longer lifetime than conventional TPA-Ru(bpy)2+3 co-reactant system.

Neurolymphomatosis(NL) is characterized by lymphomatous infiltration of the peripheral nervous system. We report a case of neurolymphomatosis(NL) which was confirmed by sural nerve biopsy. Sural nerve specimen from a 49-year-old female patient with weakness of limbs was examined with routine histochemical and immunohistochemistry staining, in which the first antibodies against CD3, CD20, CD45, CD45RO and CD68 were used. Numerous T-lymphoma cells invaded in the adipose tissue of epineurium of sural nerve. The nerve biopsy showed marked axonal degeneration of myelinated fibers. The clinical and histopathologic findings confirmed the diagnosis of neurolymphomatosis.
