Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is the most common hemorrhagic disease in childhood,and immunological abnormality is the most common cause of this disease.Humoral immune abnormalities are the major cause of ITP,involving platelet,platelet membrane surface glycoproteins associated antibodies,impaired Breg cells and upregulation of platelet Toll like receptors.Cellular immune abnormalities include the imbalance of Th1/Th2 cells results in increased inhibitory cytokines [interleukin (IL)-2,interferon-α,tumor necrosis factor-β],IL-17 and Th17 cells in patients with chronic ITP are higher than those in control group,and Treg decline is also common seen in ITP.Increased expression of apoptosis related genes Bak and Bax are also the cause of chronic ITP.Helicobacter pylori is an important cause of chronic ITP,which can be eased in some cases but not effective in new diagnosed cases.Vaccination can lead to ITP,repeated vaccines are applied usually in 3-6 months after the onset.

The hospital is a dynamic, discrete, flexible, open and complicated system. The paper offered an analysis of the hospital system from the Wuli-Shili-Renli perspective, simplifying the complex process of medical activities into a clear-cut diagram of the system architecture. It also gave an account of the construction of a simulation model of specialized knowledge in hospital management by means of KBS, with the integration of the Wuli-Shili-Renli ideology into the KBS, and expounded the significance of Renli in the model of hospital management.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) in diagnosis of atypical cancerization nodules (CNs) of liver cirrhosis. Methods Totally 34 patients with atypical CNs of liver cirrhosis confirmed pathologically underwent routine MR, dynamic enhancement, and DWI (b=0, 500, 1000 s/mm~2). The detection rate of CNs of liver cirrhosis between routine MR and DWI was compared. Results Totally 21 patients with 28 cancerization nodules were diagnosed with routine and dynamic enhancement MR, while 27 patients with 37 cancerization nodules were detected with DWI. Significant difference was found in the detection rate between routine scan and DWI (P=0.025). Conclusion DWI shows more advantage than routine and dynamic enhancement MR for detection of liver cirrhosis with atypical CNs.

Objective To observe the effects of exercises on early stage of steroid-induced necrosis of the femoral head in rabbits with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Methods 24 adult rabbits were divided randomly into three groups, i.e. control group (group A), routine model group (group B) and experimental group (group C) with 8 animals for each group. Dexamethasone (DXM) was administrated in a dosage of 2.5mg/kg via intramuscular route to reproduce the aseptic necrosis of femoral head (ANFH) model in groups B and C, while only isotonic physiological saline was given to the animals in group A. MRI examinations were done at 2nd, 4th, 6th and 8th week after administration of DXM for bilateral femoral heads, and also on a medial coronary area of the hip joints with a fixed area of circumambient soft tissure of 3 mm in diameter. Results At 2nd, 4th, 6th and 8th week after the reproduction of the model, the t2-de3d-sag spot-signals given by MRI in the circumambient soft tissue of hip joints were 56.26?0.45, 58.05?0.27, 59.04?0.29 and 59.23?0.25 in group A, 61.40?0.41, 63.71?0.34, 69.65?0.28 and 71.84?0.3 in group B, and 59.54?0.39, 60.06?0.32, 62.71?0.19 and 63.18?0.40 in group C, respectively. Significant differences existed between each of two groups (F=84.93, P

ObjectiveTo evaluate the significance of ankler-brachial index (ABI) to predict the extent of intracranial artery stenosis in ischemic stroke patients. Methods243 ischemic stroke patients were enrolled, brain angiography were examined and all of the ABI and basic data were collected. ResultsABI≤0.9 was associated with a specificity of 84.6% and a sensitivity of 16.8% for predicting the presence of severe stenosis in intracranial artery. The area under receiver operating characteristic curve was (0.591±0.046) (P<0.05). ConclusionABI≤0.9 has a relative specificity and sensitivity for predicting the presence of severe stenosis of intracranial artery.

Objective To investigate the effect of cystatin C (CysC) concentration on outcome of intravenous thrombolysis in patients with acute ischemic stroke.Methods The consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke who underwent intravenous thrombolysis were enrolled retrospectively.They were divided into a good outcome group (≤2) and a poor outcome group (＞2) according to the Rankin scale.They were also divided into a hemorrhagic transformation (HT) group and a non-HT group according to whether they had HT or not.Their demographic data and clinical data were compared.Results A total of 103 patients with acute ischemic stroke treated with intravenous thrombolysis were enrolled,44 in the good outcome group,59 in the poor outcome group; 23 in the TH group,and 80 in the non-HT group.The age (62.34 ± 13.41 years vs.68.09 ± 9.74 years; t-2.521,P =0.013),baseline CysC concentration (1.008±0.28 mg/L vs.1.27±0.86 mg/L; t=2.237,P=0.027),incidence of HT (14％ vs.34.9％; x2 =6.016,P =0.014) and National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score (10.39 ± 3.11 vs.18 ±2.65; t =13.35,P ＜0.001) in the good outcome group were significantly lower than those in the poor outcome group.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that there was no significant independent correlation between CysC and clinical outcome (odds ratio 1.783,95％ confidence interval 0.443-7.185 ; P =0.416).The baseline CysC concentration (1.41 ± 0.54 mg/L vs.0.96± 0.18 mg/L; t =3.941,P=0.001) and the NIHSS score (15.96 ± 3.7 vs.13.05 ±4.87; t =3.017,P =0.004) in the non-HT group were significantly lower than those in the HT group.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the plasma CysC concentration ＞ 1.03 mg/L (odds ratio 9.050,95％ confidence interval 2.384-34.359; P =0.001) was an independent risk factor for HT.Conclusions The increased baseline plasma CysC concentration was associated with the occurrence of HT in patients with acute ischemic stroke after intravenous thrombolysis therapy,but it was not associated with the outcomes.

Objective To investigate the serum level of visfatin, C-reactive protein (CRP) and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) in patients with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), and provide the basis for understanding the pathogenesis of PCOS. Meth-ods 94 patients with PCOS and 100 healthy subjects were divided into 4 subgroups according to their body mass index(BMI), including obese PCOS subgroup(n = 52), non - obese PCOS subgroup (n = 42), obese healthy subject subgroup (n = 43) and non - obese healthy subject (n = 57). Serum visfatin, CRP, MCP-1, sex hormone levels and metabolic parameters were measured by enzyme-linked immu-nosorbent assay (ELISA), automatic chemistry analyzer or chemiluminescent immunoassay. Results Serum levels of testosterone (T), lu-teiizing hormone (LH) and prolactin (PRL) in the PCOS group were significantly higher than those in healthy subjects group(P <0.05～0.01), and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels were significantly decreased in PCOS group(P<0.01). Serum levels of Visfatin, CRP, MCP-1,fasting insulin(Fins) and insulin resistance homa model (HOMA-IR) in the obese or non - obese PCOS subgroup were signif-icantly increased than that in the obese or non - obese healthy subjects subgroup respectively (P<0.01). Pearson correlation analysis showed that the visfatin, CRP and MCP-1 levels were positively related to BMI, FINS and HOMA-IR(r=0.323～0.675, P<0.01). Par-tial correlation showed that serum visfatin levels were correlated with HOMA-IR(r=0.491, P<0.01), and serum MCP-1 levels were cor-related with LH (r=0.267, P<0.05) in the PCOS group. Conclusion The patients with PCOS had higher visfatin, CRP and MCP-1 lev-els, and visfatin levels were positively correlated with insulin resistance. Obesity were involved in the chronic inflammation course in patients with PCOS.

AIM: To study the protective effects of HIF-1α gene transfection on hypoxic injury in human HepG2 cells. METHODS: After gene transfection, HepG2 cells were randomly divided into 4 groups: normoxia with Ad-GFP transfected group, normoxia with Ad-HIF-1 transfected group, hypoxia with Ad-GFP transfected group and hypoxia with Ad-HIF-1 transfected group. LDH leaking rate, cell viability, contents of NO and ROS, the iNOS activity were measured. RESULTS: High levels of HIF-1α mRNA and protein were detected in Ad-HIF transfected HepG2 cells. Cell viability was significantly lower in Ad-GFP transfected-hypoxia group than that in Ad-GFP transfected-normoxia group (P<0.05). No marked difference of cell viability was found between Ad-HIF transfected-hypoxia group and Ad-HIF transfected-normoxia group. ROS was significantly higher in Ad-GFP transfected-hypoxia group than that in Ad-GFP transfected-normoxia group (P<0.05), while no marked difference was found either between Ad-HIF transfected-hypoxia group and Ad-HIF transfected-normoxia group or between Ad-HIF transfected-hypoxia group and Ad-GFP transfected-hypoxia group. The content of NO and iNOS activity were significantly higher in Ad-HIF transfected-normoxia group and Ad-GFP transfected-hypoxia group than those in Ad-GFP transfected-normoxia group (P<0.05), no marked difference was found either between Ad-HIF transfected-hypoxia group and Ad-GFP transfected-hypoxia group or between Ad-HIF transfected-hypoxia group and Ad-HIF transfected-normoxia group. CONCLUSION: Higher HIF-1α expression is contributed to protective effects against hypoxic injury in HepG2 cells, the mechanisms of which may be correlated with promoting expression of gene regulated by HIF-1 and restraining over-expression of injure factors.
