Objective To study the expression levels of inducible costimulator (ICOS) on CD4+ T cells in peripheral blood in patients with chronic hepatitis B and its change after treated with interferon.Methods All 56 patients were divided into two groups (interferon group has 28 cases,lamivudine group has 28 cases),and interferon group treated by PEG-IFN-α 2a,lamivudine group treated by lamivudine,respectively.There were 20 healthy individuals as control group.The levels of ICOS on CD4+ T cells of patients with chronic hepatitis B were kinetically detected by flow cytometry.The copies of HBV DNA in sera were dynamically detected by real-time PCR.Results The levels of ICOS on CD4+ T cells in patients with chronic hepatitis B was higher than that of normal controls(P＜0.001 ).However,the expressions of ICOS on CD4+ T cells in patients could be deduced by PEG-IFN-α 2a and obviously decreased after treatment.There was significant difference between interferon group and lamivudine group (P＜0.05 in 24 weeks,and P＜0.01 in 48 weeks).After treatment,the change values of ICOS in interferon group was positively correlated with the change copies of HBV DNA (r =0.972,P＜0.001 ).However,the change values mentioned above that did not find correlation in lamivudine group(r=-0.101,P=0.608).Conclusion The study shows the patients with chronic hepatitis B have disordered in cellular immunity and increased with the expression of ICOS on CD4+ T cells.PEG-IFN-α 2a could decrease the expression of ICOS on CD4+ T cells in patients,and correct the Th2 type immune polarization to some extent,and that plays a positive role in antiHBV.

Objectives To compare the safety and efficacy of radial artery access versus femoral artery access for percutaneous coronary intervention in acute myocardial infarction population. Methods From June 2004 to December 2006, 446 patients with acute myocardial infarction treated with percutaneous stenting were reviewed retrospectively. The radial artery approach was used in 242 patients, and the femoral artery approach in 204 patients. The success of the procedure, procedure duration, X-ray exposition, volume of contrast, incidence of major adverse cardiac events and complications were compared between the radial artery and femoral artery approach. Results Total procedure duration, X-ray exposition, the immediate success of the procedure and the proportion of patients with reperfusion time above 60min are higher in patients with radial artery acess than that with femoral artery access [(62. 1 ± 23. 4) min vs(56. 8 ± 16. 7)min,(2829. 4 ± 1365.2) mGY vs (2352. 3 ± 903.1) mGY, 4% vs 0.9% and 7.44% vs 2.94%respectively, all P ＜ 0. 05]. Conclusions In non-selected patients with acute myocardial infarction treated with primary stent implantation, the success rate of the radial artery approach is lower than the femoral artery approach and could prolong the reperfusion time. It is suitable to change artery access immediately if abnormality is found via radial artery access.

Objective To compare the efficiency of enhanced T2* weighted angiography (ESWAN) sequence with that of a conventional T2*-weighted gradient-recalled-echo (GRE T2*WI) sequence for the detection of hemorrhagic shearing lesions in patients with diffuse axonal injury (DAI). And combined with MRI parameters, to further discuss the principles and virtues of ESWAN sequence. Methods Seventeen patients with DAI were enrolled in this study. The raw data acquired from ESWAN scan were postprocessed by using the mean square root of multi-echoes. Then, the postprocessed images were compared with the conventional GRE T2* weighted images. The global and regional (superficial, deep and posterior fossa) lesion numbers determined by both sequences were compared by using Wilcoxon signed ranks test (two-tailed). Differences were considered to be significant at P≤0.05. Results Hemorrhagic lesions were more obvious on ESWAN images than those on conventional GRE T2* weighted images. The median and range value of the detected lesion numbers on ESWAN images were 27 and (1-239) in whole brain, 13 and (1-89) in cerebral superficial region, 5 and (0-111) in cerebral deep region and 1 and (0-39) in posterior fossa region, respectively; whereas, on GRE T2* weighted images, they were 7 and (1-34) in whole brain, 5 and (1-27) in cerebral superficial region, 2 and (0-25) in cerebral deep region and 0 and (0-4) in posterior fossa region, respectively. There were significant statistical differences between the two sequences in revealing the lesions in all the four regions (Z=-3.519,-3.182,-3.185,-2.677,P＜0.05). Conclusion In ESWAN sequence, multi-echo acquisition ensured sufficient magnetic susceptibility for detecting small hemorrhagic lesions. So, ESWAN is more sensitive to small hemorrhage, which revealed more hemorrhagic lesions than conventional GRE T2*WI and presented more valuable information for the diagnosis of DAI.

Objective To explore the clinical effect of combination of vascularized fibular head epiphysis and peroneal neurovascular reverse flap repair defects of bone and skin in lateral malleolus in children.Methods Eight children with defects of bone and skin in lateral malleolus were recruited from May,2009 to September,2014.The age of children was ranging from 4 to 12 years old.Four children were injured by wheel twist,2 children were injured by traffic accident,1 was injured by machinery,and 1 was crashed with heavy object.The size of soft-tissue defect was ranging from 3 cm × 5 cm to 7 cm × 9 cm.The flap and bone healing along with ankle joint function scoring were evaluated.Patients were reviewed every 4 to 6 weeks during one year after their surgery,and they were reviewed every 6 months one year later.Results Secondary repair were conducted in all children.The curative effect got well after follow up for 6 months to 2 years(mean,12 months).The flap and fibular head epiphysis were well developed.The ossification of fibular head epiphysis did not found.According to American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle function evaluation criteria,the results were excellent in 5 cases,good in 2 cases and poor in 1 at 10 months after operation.The shape and function of ankle joint were good,with one exception.The average motion degree of ankle joint was (68±5.12)°.Conclusion Combination of vascularized fibular head epiphysis and peroneal neurovascular reverse flap repair defects of bone and skin in lateral malleolus in children is effective.

Objective To assess the clinical significance of antibodies against cyclic citrullinated peptide(anti - CCP) in a cohort of patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). Methods The anti - CCP was tested by an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in serum samples from 22 patients with JIA(9 boys, 13 girls), with a mean age of 9.1 years(range 1.1 - 16). As control groups, anti - CCP were also tested in sera of 20 healthy children, and 30 adult patients with rheumatoid arthritis(RA). Results Positive anti - CCP were found in sera of 2 patients with JIA(9.1 %), both with lower titre comparing with those of adult patients with anti - CCP positive. In the control groups, none of healthy children was positive for anti - CCP, but 16/30(53. 3%) adults with RA showed anti - CCP positivity. Conclusion Anti - CCP can be detected in children with JIA, but are less frequently present than in adults with RA, so anti - CCP has limited diagnostic value to JIA.

Objective:To investigate the changes of default network functional connectivity (FC) in resting state of patients with insomnia disorder (ID).Methods:Fifty-six patients with insomnia disorder and fifty healthy controls were recruited. All subjects were assessed with Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI), insomnia severity index (ISI), Epworth sleepiness score (ESS) and Hamilton depression scale (HAMD-17). All subjects were scanned with resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI). SPM12 and CONN18b were used to preprocess rs-fMRI data on MATLAB (R2013b).The medial superior frontal gyrus was defined as the seed point, and the differences in the functional connection strength of the two groups of subjects were compared. Pearson correlation analysis was performed between the FC value of the brain area with statistical significance and scores of PSQI and ISI.Results:(1)FC analysis showed that compared with the control group, patients with ID had abnormal default mode network (DMN) connection, as follows: FC of left medial superior frontal gyrus and left central anterior gyrus (MNI: x, y, z=-30, -15, 51) and anterior cingulate gyrus (MNI: x, y, z=-6, 24, 36), FC of right medial forehead between the last gyrus and the left central anterior gyrus (MNI: x, y, z=-48, -6, 48), FC of left anterior cuneiform and the left central back (MNI: x, y, z=-54, -18, 54) and left superior occipital gyrus (MNI: x, y, z=-21, -69, 30), FC of right precuneus and left central posterior gyrus (MNI: x, y, z=-60, -21, 48) was enhanced. The FC of left anterior cuneiform lobe and the right middle frontal gyrus (MNI: x, y, z=42, 33, 42) and the right angular gyrus (MNI: x, y, z=54, -51, 45), FC of right precuneus and left inferior temporal gyrus (MNI: x, y, z=-51, -12, -42) was weakened. (2)With the left medial superior frontal gyrus as the seed point, FC values in anterior cingulate gyrus ( r=0.451, 0.338, both P<0.01) and left anterior central gyrus ( r=0.324, 0.402, both P<0.05) were positively correlated with PSQI and ISI scores. With the right precuneus as the seed point, FC value of left posterior central gyrus was positively correlated with PSQI( r=0.333, P=0.013) and ISI scores( r=0.418, P=0.008), while FC value of left inferior temporal gyrus was negatively correlated with PSQI( r=-0.662, P=0.001) and ISI scores( r=-0.402, P<0.01).With the left precuneus as the seed point, FC value of left superior occipital gyrus was positively correlated with PSQI( r=0.438, P=0.001) and ISI scores( r=0.495, P=0.011). Conclusion:Patients with ID may have changes in the functional connection of multiple networks. The decrease of FC in DMN may be one of the potential causes of insomnia. The increase in FC between DMN and the visuospatial attention network may be the core of the mechanism of damage to the brain function network of insomnia link.

AIM: To investigate the effect of mfn2 on mitochondrial function in steatosis hepatocytes. METHODS: Plasmid pEGFP-mfn2 was transfected into hepatocyte strain L02 by Lipofectamine 2000 in vitro, then the steatosis model of hepatocytes was establish by oleic acid induction. RT-PCR was used to evaluate mRNA expression and Western blotting was use to detect the protein expression. ATP level was determined by firefly luciferase bioluminescent. ROS production was measured by fluorescence probe DCFH-DA. Chondrosome transmembrane potential of L02 was observed by labeling of JC-1 and FCM. RESULTS: The stable expression of ectogenesis mitofusin2 in L02 cells was confirmed by RT-PCR and Western blotting. In the model of oleic acids induced lipid formation, Mfn2 obviously inhibited the descent of chondrosome transmembrane potential and ATP level, and increased ROS production in L02 cells. CONCLUSION: Up-regulated expression of mfn2 attenuates mitochondria dysfunction caused by oleic acids induced lipid formation.

Objective To study the value of magnetic resonance diffusion tensor imaging(MR-DTI) in evaluating the severity of liver cirrhosis.Methods Seventeen patients with Child A liver fibrosis (age=35.0+11.8 years,14 males and 3 females),12 with Child B(age=44.7+14.0 years,5 males and 7 females) and 8 with Child C(age=48.7+7.6 years,3 males and 5 females) were recruited.All patients had clinical data and serum makers in full.Fifty normal controls (age=35.2+14.2,28 males and 22 females) were also recruited.Diffusion tensor imaging(DTI) was performed in all subjects using a GE Propeller HD 1.5T MR scanner by employing a spin echo single-shot EPI(echo planar imaging) sequence.Average diffusion coefficient(DCave) and fractional anisotropy(FA) maps were generated from each P articipants DTI scan using AW 4.2 functool software.All the statistic analysis was performed in SPSS 13.0 , and P value of less than 0.05 was deemed to be significant . Results DCave values were 1.54±0.25 ,1.33±0.18 ,1.02±0.12 ,0.66±0.27 in control group and Child A , B , C respectively , the FA values were 0.46±0.10, 0.42±0.08, 0.56±0.05,0.71±0.41 in control group and Child A, B, C respectively. Significantly low DCave and changed FA in liver fibrosis group were found(P< 0. 05). Among the four groups, significant differences were found in DCave values and FA values(P<0.05) except control group VS Child A group in FA values(P=0.54).Conclusion MR-DTI is relevant to the severity of liver cirrhosis, and may be a useful tool for evaluating the severity of liver cirrhosis.
