Bronchial asthma is the most common chronic diseases in children.Asthma can not be fully explained by imbalance of Thl/Th2.With the research progress of CD4+ CD25+ Treg cell,it has been found that CD4+ CD25+ Treg cell related factors such as forkhead/winged helix transcription factor,heine oxygenase-1,transforming growth factor-?,cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 are closely linked to asthmatic mechanisms.

Objective To explore the relationship between genetic variation in PAF-AH V279F and coronary heart disease among Han population in Beijing.Methods A case-control study was held which enrolled 124 patients with coronary heart disease and 103 normal subjects.The genotype of PAF-AH V279F was determined with allele-specific polymerase chain reaction(AS-PCR)method. Results The highest frequency of PAF-AH V279F genetic variation was VV genotype(92.2%),the next was VF genotype(5.8%)and the lowest was FF genotype(2.0%)among the studied Han population in Beijing.In the coronary heart disease group the frequency of 279 V→F carriers was significantly higher than in the control group(19.3% vs.7.8%,P＜0.05)and F allele frequency was also higher(12.1% vs.4.9%,P＜0.01).Among the coronary heart disease group,the V279F variation frequency and the F allele frequency were significantly higher in patients with myocardial infarction than in those without myocardial infarction(27.3% vs.13.0%,17.3% vs.8.0%,both P＜0.05).In multiple logistic regression analysis,the odds ratio(OR)of V279F genetic variation for coronary heart disease was 1.919(95% CI:1.448-2.544,P=0.033).Conclusions The PAF-AH V279F genetic variation may be a novel genetic marker for high risk of coronary heart disease.

Objective To survey the biliary flora in patients with obstructive jaundice due to pancreatic head cancer,also the multiple factors which affect the positive findings of bile culture in these patients.Methods The information of 65 patients with obstruetive jaundice due to pancreatic head eancer,who admitted to surgery in Huashan Hospital from Oetober 2007 to October 2008 were reviewed retrospectively.The factors which may potentially affect the detection of bile pathogen in patients with malignant obstructive jaundice were studied with univarite analysis and muhivariate analysis,including age,history of biliary surgery,yellow stained time,serum alanihe aminotransferase level,serum bilirubin level,CA19-9 level,tumor size,site of obstruction,with or without clinical manifestations of biliary infection,and APACHE Ⅱ score.Results Twenty-five positive cultures happened in 65 bile samples (38.5％),including 21 strains of Gram-negative baeilli (72.4％),6 strains of Gram-positive bacteria (20.7％),and 2 strains of fungi (6.9％).Univariate analysis showed that the relevant factors which may affect the rate of positive bile culture in patients with malignant obstructive jaundice were age,history of biliary surgery,biliary obstruction site,biliary tract infection symptoms and APACHE Ⅱ score.Multivariate analysis showed that age,history of biliary surgery,biliary obstruction site and APACHE Ⅱ seore were independent risk factors.Conctusion Age,history of biliary surgery,biliary obstruction site and APACHE Ⅱ score were independent risk factors which led to positive findings of bile cultures in patients with obstructive jaundice due to pancreatic head cancer.

Objective To identify the types of pulmonary complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy,and to discuss the prevention and management of these complications.Methods Clinical data of 165 cases of pancreaticoduodenectomy in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed.Pulmonary complications were identified,therapeutic effects were observed.Results The incidence rate of pulmonary complications was 19.4％ ( 32/165),case-fatality rate was 6.25％ (2/32),two patients died from pneumonia,respiratory failure and ARDS.Complications mainly included pneumonia 13.9％ (23/165),pleural effusion 4.2％ (7/165),atelectasis 3.6％ (6/165),pneumothorax 1.8％ ( 3/165 ),respiratory failure 2.4％ (4/165) and ARDS 1.2％ (2/165).Conclusion Pulmonary complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy are not rare,especially for pulmonary infection and most are hospital acquired pneumonia.To understand rules and particularity of respiratory physiopathological changes after pancreaticoduodenectomy is very important for patients to safely pass over the perioperative period.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of pancreatic gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST). Methods We reported a case and reviewed the medical literature on pancreatic malignant GIST. We searched the Pubmed and main domestic database. The clinical data of the reported cases were studied, and their predictive factors for postoperative recurrence and metastasis were analyzed. Results Between January 1980 and July 2010, 16 cases of pancreatic GIST were reported. There were 7 males and 9 females, with a median age pf 56.5 (31-72)years. The clinical symptoms were nonspecific. The main presentation was upper abdominal pain or discomfort. A preoperative diagnosis was suspected on radiological examination. The tumor mainly appeared as a well-defined solid-cystic mass. Irregular enhancement appeared in the circumferential and solid portion of the tumor on enhanced CT scan sequences. The pancreatic and biliary ducts were rarely dilated. Endoscopic ultrasound guided fine needle aspiration cytology (EUS-FNA) was helpful in preoperative diagnosis. Of the 15 surgical patients, 14 underwent complete resection, while the remaining received cyst-jejunostomy. A correct diagnosis was made on histopathology and immunohisto-chemistry. On a mean follow up of 21 months (range, 1-60) in 14 patients, all patients were alive.Recurrence or metastasis occurred in 4 patients with tumors of high malignant potential. On univariate analysis, the only significant predictor for adverse outcome was mitoses≥10/50 HPF. Conclusions Pancreatic GIST is a rare tumor of relatively low malignant potential. It has a better prognosis than ductal adenocarcinoma. It is important to arrive at a correct diagnosis and treat the tumor with radical resection. Aggressive surgical resection is potentially curative. Imatinib is recommended in the treatment of patients with tumors with high malignant potential.

Objective To explore a new model of medical humanity education in new situation. Methods Extensive survey was carried out among medical students,and discussion and consultation were hold to faculty and education administers.A new teaching model was established. Results A curriculum system with 1 or 2 core courses supported by some elective courses and social practice is under the process of implementation and achieved preliminary success.Conclusion The medical humanity education should pay attention to the development of connotation instead of pursuing the extension of quantity blindly,which means that students' school work must be eased by focusing on self-study and self-education.Medical students'life path with high-minded personality training should be strengthened.

Objective To verify the detection ability of experimental animal quality detection laboratories in China for Staphylococcus aureus.Methods The testing samples for Staphylococcus aureus detection were prepared by bacterial culture, homogeneity test and stability test, according to the study plan approved by CNAS.Then the samples and operation instruction were sent to the participant laboratories.The detection reports from these laboratories should be submitted before the deadline expires, and the collected data were summarized and analyzed.Results There were 28 laboratories which joined to this test plan.Among them 22 laboratories ( 78.57%) achieved satisfactory test results, and six laboratories (21.43%) had unsatisfactory test results.27 Laboratories used the national standard detection assay, while only one labo-ratory used PCR assay.Conclusions Most of experimental animal quality testing laboratories in China have sufficient pro-ficiency in detection of Staphylococcus aureus.The obtained information are very helpful for the laboratory ability verification testing in future.

Objective To assess the value of multi-slice computed tomography angiography (MSCTA) in the preoperative detection of aberrant hepatic arteries in patients scheduled to undergo pancreaticoduodenectomy.Methods Patients with pancreatic and peri-ampullary tumors were preoperatively studied using contrast-enhanced abdominal CT angiography (CTA).The results on hepatic arterial anatomy were compared with those obtained from digital subtraction angiography (DSA) and on surgical findings.Results Eighty-one patients were included into this study.DSA was carried out in 29 patients to evaluate tumor resectability,and 66 patients received surgery.Anomalous hepatic arteries were detected in 17 (21％) patients on CTA.Thirteen (16.0％) patients had a single arterial variant,and 4 (4.9％) patients had two arterial variants.One patient each was seen in the Michels type Ⅳ,Ⅶ,and Ⅷ respectively,while 2 patients each were seen in the Michels type Ⅲ and Ⅴ respectively.Five patients were diagnosed as the Michels type Ⅵ,and four as the Michels type Ⅸ.One patient demonstrated a rare variant which was not included into the Michels classification.MSCTA had an accuracy of 100％,a sensitivity of 100％,and a specificity of 100％.Regarding the traceability scores of hepatic arterial segment,there were no statistically significant differences between MSCTA and DSA.Conclusions MSCTA is an effective imaging tool to assess arterial anatomical variation around the pancreatic head.It is non-invasive,and it provides valuable information on the peri-pancre atic vascular anatomy before pancreaticoduodenectomy.
