Objective To investigate the clinical effect of mosapride combined acupoint massage on diabetic gastroparesis(DGP)in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes.Methods 150 cases of DGP in our hospital from April 2015 to May 2016 were collected and randomly divided into three groups:the conventional treatment group(n=35,in insulin treatment),the control group(n=52,in mosapride treatment),and the experimental group(n=63,in mosapride combined with acupoint massage treatment).All patients received the conventional diabetic therapy.Clinical efficacy,gastric emptying rate and the levels of serum gastrin and fasting blood glucose were observed and compared before versus after treatment among the three groups.Results After treatment,the total effective rate was 92.1% in the experimental group,versus 51.4% and 73.1% in the conventional treatment group and control group respectively,showing a statistically significant difference(P<0.05).There were significant differences in gastric emptying rate,the levels of serum gastrin and fasting blood glucose among the 3 treatment groups before versus after treatment.And gastric emptying rate,the levels of serum gastrin and fasting blood glucose were improved in the experimental groups compared with the conventional treatment and control groups(all P<0.05).The follow-up results showed that the adverse reactions and the recurrence rates were significantly lower in the experimental group than in conventional treatment group and control group(all P<0.05).Conclusions Mosapride combined with acupoint massage in the treatment of diabetic gastroparesis have significant clinical effect,low recurrence rate and high safety,and is worthy of promotion.

Objective To observe the effect of intra-articular injection of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA)on the experimental osteoarthritis in rabbits and study the mechanism.Methods Forty rabbits un derwent unilateral anterior cruciate ligament transection(ACLT)and then divided into two groups randomly. 100?mol/L DHEA resolved in the dimethylsulphoxide were injected into the knees of experimental rabbits 4 weeks after transection,once a week for five weeks.Rabbits in the control group were treated under the same schedule using dimethylsulphoxide.All rabbits were killed 9 weeks after ACLT and the knee joints were evalu- ated by gross morphology and histology.The mRNA expression of metalloproteinases-3(MMP-3),tissue in- hibitor of metalloproteinases-1(TIMP-1)and interleukin-lbeta(IL-1?)in the cartilage and synovium was analyzed using reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).Results Gross morphologic in- spection and histological evaluation showed that the extent and grade of cartilage and synovium damage in the experimental group were less severe than the control group.The mRNA expression of MMP-3 in cartilage and synovium decreased significantly in the experimental group(both P＜0.05).The mRNA expression of TIMP-1 in cartilage and synovium increased significantly in the experimental group compared with that in the control group(both P＜0.05).No significant difference of IL-1?mRNA expression in cartilage was found between the experimental and the control groups(P＞0.05).The mRNA expression of IL-1?in the synovium was signifi- cantly suppressed in the experimental group compared with that in the control group(P＜0.01).Conclusion DHEA protects against cartilage degradation,alleviates synovium inflammation and inhibits the progression of osteoarthritis in the experimental model.Down-regulation of MMP-3 and up-regulation of TIMP-1 in cartilage and synovium and IL-1?in the synovium may be the mechanism of the protective effect of DHEA on os- teoarthritis.

0.35 U?L-1 was taken as standard of positive detection.Among all the 20 allergen,atopy could be diagnosed by one positive allergen detected.The controlling non-atopy group were the controlls.Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction assay was used to detect viruses in the nasopharyngeal secretions of these patients,including respiratory syncytial viruses,rhincvirus,influenza virus,parainfluenza,human metocpneumo virus,human bocavirus,enterovirus.The virus-positive patients were then divided into 2 groups,atopic virus-positive group and non-atopic virus-positive group.Cytokines IL-12 and IL-27 were further determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay me-thod.Results A total of 65 cases(56.0%) and 77 cases(66.4%) out of 116 cases of recurrent wheezing children,were found to be allergen-positive and virus-positive,respectively.The virus-positive rate was 75.4% in atopic group and 54.9% in non-atopic group.There was a significant difference in the virus-positive rates between the atopic and non-atopic group(?2=5.37,P0.05).Furthermore,serum IL-12 and IL-27 in the atopic group were significantly higher than those in the non-atopic group(t=2.579,2.573,Pa

OBJECTIVE: To explore the related risk facts of pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE) and analyze the relation between PTE and the trauma or medical behavior by investigating the cases of PTE. METHODS: Thirty-three cases were selected from Institute of Forensic Science (IFS) from 2000 to 2014. RESULTS: In 33 cases, 16 decedents were male, 17 decedents were female; different degrees of dyspnea, chest tight- ness and syncope symptoms were the clinical manifestation of the deceased; the thrombus was mainly distributed in the left and right pulmonary arteries. The main source of embolism was the deep vein of lower limb and the left probability was higher. Trauma, limited position, operation and cardiovascular disease showed high-risk factors of PTE; D-Dimer test, hemolytic test and computer tomography pul- monary angiography were the diagnostic tools for PTE. In some cases, trauma and medical malpractice could be involved in the cause of death. CONCLUSION Non-typical clinical symptoms present in the most cases caused by PTE, and these cases always show many high-risk factors. The relation between PTE and injury or medical behavior should be considered carefully in the forensic pathological practice.

OBJECTIVETo study the clinical characteristics of human bocavirus (HBoV) infection in children.

METHODSNasal and throat swab samples were collected in 843 children with lower respiratory tract infection. The multiple RT-PCR method was used to detect HBoV and six other common respiratory tract viruses. The clinical characteristics of HboV positive cases were investigated.

RESULTSAmong 843 cases, 90 were HboV positive (10.7%), 131 were respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) positive (15.5%), 117 were influenza virus positive (13.9%), 84 were parainfluenza virus positive (10.0%), 55 were rhinovirus positive (6.5%), 48 were coronavirus positive (5.7%), and 33 were human metapneumovirus positive (3.7%). Of the 90 HBoV infected patients, 45 (50%) showed a co-infection with other respiratory tract viruses. Among them, 33 were infected with one other type of virus (37%), 11 (12%) were infected with two other types of virus, and 1 case (1%) was infected with other three viruses. The HBoV positive rate in children with wheezing was significantly higher than those without wheezing (17.0% vs 9.2%; P<0.01). The common clinical manifestations of HBoV-infected patients included frequent coughing, wheezing and fever. There were no significant differences in the frequency of wheezing between HBoV and RSV infected patients.

CONCLUSIONSHBoV positive rate detected from children with wheezing is higher than from children without wheezing, suggesting that apart from RSV, HBoV is another virus causing wheezing in children with respiratory tract infection. Co-infections of HBoV with other respiratory track viruses can be present in some patients.

OBJECTIVETo explore the correlation between hand and face-mouth, so as to provide nerve reflex basis for the theory "Hegu (LI 4) regulates face and mouth".

METHODSSeven hundred and sixty-three participants who met the inclusive criteria were divided into different age groups. The skin around participants' thenar eminence was gently scraped to be observed whether there was an involuntary movement around the face or mouth, which was palmomental reflex. The results of palmomental reflex were recorded.

RESULTSThe total occurrence rate of palmomental reflex was 46.26%. For those who were 0 to 1 years old, the palmomental reflex was all positive; for those who were 21 to 36 years old, the positive rate was 20.45%, which was the lowest; for those who were 65 to 85 years old, more than half of them were positive. The majority of those who were 0 to 2 years old were bilateral positive palmomental reflex, while the majority of those who were 65 to 85 years old were unilateral positive palmomental reflex.

CONCLUSIONThere is a certain connection between hand and face-mouth. The occurrence rate of palmomental reflex changes from high to low over age increasing, and then changes from low to high with the aging, presenting a "high-low-high" U-shaped curve, which is possible related to the growth and recession of nervous system.
