There is a variety of gut microbiota in human body, which is closely associated with the health and disease. Normal gut microbiota can produce colonization resistance to pathogens. Antibiotics can affect the composition of gut microbiota and change the intestinal microenvironment, resulting in intestinal microecological disorders, which in turn cause intestinal pathogenic infections and other diseases. In this paper, the concept of intestinal microecology, the mechanism of intestinal colonization resistance, the effect of antibiotics on intestinal microecology, and the treatment methods were reviewed, aiming to provide the information for the rational use of antibiotics and the development of more effective treatment methods to maintain the stability of intestinal microecology.

Objective:To understand and compare the online learning effect of students majoring in stomatology and dental technology under the background of COVID-19 epidemic prevention and control, and to analyze the advantages and challenges of online teaching, so as to provide reference for the reform of teaching mode of stomatology education.Methods:A questionnaire survey on online learning was carried out among 267 students majoring in stomatology and 92 students majoring in dental technology in Chongqing Medical University. The results were statistically analyzed by SPSS 21.0, and chi-square test or rank sum test was used to count the data.Results:Computers and mobile phones are the main tools for students to study online. 52.92% of students used computers and 38.72% used smart phones. About 80% of the students said that they could adapt to online learning, and there was no statistical difference between the students of two majors. The online learning time of students majoring in stomatology was mainly 4-6 hours, while that of students majoring in dental technology was 2-4 hours, with statistical significance. However, the latter were more likely to ask questions to teachers than the former, and the proportion of students who often asked questions to teachers was 29.35% and 20.60%, respectively, with statistical significance. A small number of students of both majors failed log on the platform to learn and complete all the teaching materials on time. More than 50% of the students thought that online teaching was not as effective as offline teaching, and offline teaching was more conducive to mastering curriculum knowledge, without statistical differences between the students of two majors. They thought that the unsmooth learning platform, poor network conditions at home, and insufficient teaching materials prepared by teachers were the main reasons that affected the online learning effect.Conclusion:The online teaching is an important and also an advisable way to maintain teaching activities during the epidemic prevention and control of COVID-19. It will be the direction of further research on the education and teaching reform to make full use of information technology, combine the advantages of online teaching and traditional classroom teaching, and actively explore the blended teaching mode from the perspective of specialty and course characteristics.

Objective To evaluate the clinical significance of improving the goal attainment rate by management of timely feedback of hypertension patients, which is carried out by using existing communication network. Methods Totally 423 hypertension patients who were hospitalized for treatment in Daping Hospital from Jan. 2012 to Jan 2013, the random numbers table was used to randomize the patients into 2 groups: control group (212 cases) and experiment group (211cases), the conventional treatment was used in control group. Besides the conventional treatment measures, the modern way of communication and network information platform was used by patients who timely feed back the blood pressure changing, and implement the cognitive treatment of hypertension at the same time in the experiment group. The Chi square test was used to compare the patient's medication compliance, the attainment rate and so on , the t test was used to compare the blood pressure in two groups of patients after the intervention. Results At the end of the intervention, the difference of heavy salt diet (reduced to 16.59%), regularly drinking (reduced to 13.74%), heavy sugar diet (reduced to 10.43%), abnormal blood lipid (reduced to 19.91%), smoking (reduced to 27.96%), the number of people who have a stable mood (up to 91.47%), body mass index (reduced to 29.38%) and exercise at ordinary times (reduced to 36.02%) were statistically significant (P< 0.05). Hypertension patients compliance increased significantly, of which the medical behavior of 84.83%, compared with 13.21%in the control group, there was statistically significant difference (χ 2=8.54,P< 0.05). And the awareness, treatment, success rate of blood pressure control were 94.79%, 84.36%, 82.94% in experimental group and 50.94%, 40.09%, 27.83% in control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion Use of the existing information interaction platform in order to strengthen the management of the blood pressure of hypertension patients and related cognitive behavioral intervention, the control of risk factors and treatment compliance have improved significantly. The remote interaction platform used to patients with hypertension management improve the attainment rate of high blood pressure.

AIM: To identify the non-steroid transcription factors upregulating the expression of L-plastin in hormone-independent prostate cancer, and partly elucidate the mechanism of hormone-refractory prostate cancer. METHODS: TF SEARCH software was used to analysis the possible binding sites of transcription factors in the 3’ end of L-plastin promoter that had been identified as important part of regulation response elements. Gel shift assay and supershift assay were used to confirm the transcription factors binding the speculated response elements. PCR site-mutagenesis technique was performed to delete the binding site of transcription factor and luciferase activity assay was carried out after deletion of the binding site. RESULTS: SP-1 respond element GGTGGGGCGGGGA located at -54- -41 of L-plastin promoter was identified with the TF SEARCH software. Gel shift assay and supershift assay confirmed that SP-1 was the transcription factor binding to GGTGGGGCGGGGA. Mutant deleted the SP-1 binding-site had low-luciferase activity than that of the naive. CONCLUSION: SP-1 plays an important role in the up-regulation of L-plastin expression in hormone-independent prostate cancer.

Objective To evaluate abdominal CT scan in predicting complications and mortality of acute pancreatitis patients. Methods CT imaging data of 606 AP patients from June 2010 to October 2011 were analyzed retrospectively. Fatty liver, pleural effusion, suprahepatic space effusion, biliary tract disease,gastric bare area involvement (GBAI),adrenal gland involvement (AGI) and perirenal space involvement (PSI) were evaluated,and the relationship between CT findings and complications and mortality was analyzed. Results (1) The Logistic regression analysis showed six risk factors for complications of AP,including obesity,fatty liver,PSI,AGI,GBAI and suprahepatic space effusion.The sensitivity,specificity and accuracy of Logistic regression model for predicting complications were 81.3％,89.1％ and 85.3 ％,respectively. (2) The Logistic regression analysis showed four risk factors for mortality of AP,including obesity,AGI,GBA and suprahepatic space effusion.The sensitivity,specificity and accuracy of Logistic regression model for predicting mortality were 33.3％, 98.6％, 96.0％, respectively.Conclusions Abdominal CT scan effectively indicates the signs of tissue and organ involvement in AP.These CT findings relate with the prognosis of AP.

Objective To investigate the protective effects of simvastatin on cobalt choride ( CoCl2 ) -induced hypoxia and reoxygenation injury on alveolar type Ⅱ cells and the underlying mechanisms.Methods CoCl2 was used to establish the hypoxia and reoxygenation injury model on AT Ⅱ cells.Blank,control and variant doses simvastatin-treated groups ( 5,10,20,30,50,100 μ mol/L) were designed in the present study.The proliferation of AT Ⅱ cells was evaluated by Cell Counting Kit-8 ( CCK-8 ) assay.The percentage of apoptotic cells was assessed by flow cytometry AV/PI double-staining.The protein levels of surfactant protein-C (SP-C) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in AT Ⅱ cells was determined by Western blot.Results As compared with the control group,pretreatment with low dose (5 - 20 μmol/L),but not high dose simvastatin (50 - 100 μmol/L) markedly reduced A549 cells apoptosis,and increased their proliferation and the protein levels of SPC and PCNAin vitro.The protective effect could be reversed in vitro by L-mevalonate,a simvastatin competitive inhibitor,which indicated that the inhibition of mevalorate pathway was involved in the simvastatin induced AT Ⅱ cells function restoration.Condusion Low doses simvastatin reversed CoCl2-induced hypoxia and reoxygenation injury of AT Ⅱ cells.The inhibition of mevalonate pathway contributed to simvastatin induced AT Ⅱ cells function restoration.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics, operation time and methods for patients with central brain herniation caused by bifrontal contusions. Methods A retrospective study was performed on the medical records of patients with central brain herniation caused by bifrontal contusions admitted from January 2000 to December 2006. There were 45 males and 18 females, at age range of 20-72 years (average 43 years). The majority of the patients were victims of falls and traffic accidents. There were 29 patients treated with immediate operation and 34 with emergency operation. All the operations involved simultaneous bilateral craniectomy for decompression, including 17 patients treated with bilateral decompressive craniectomy and 46 with unilateral decompressive craniectomy. Results The prognosis was favorable in 19 patients with GOS score of 5 or 4 points, severely disabled in seven with GOS score of 3 points, vegetative in four with GOS score of 4 points and the worst in seven with GOS score of 1 point. Of all, 19 patients suffered severe mental disorders especially personality change and disturbance of intelligence. Seven patients were complicated by epilepsy and three by hydrocephalus. Conclusions Based on early clinical manifestations of central brain herniation combined with imaging manifestations, bilateral balance decompression craniectomy can reduce the mortality and morbidity and improve the cure rate of patients with central herniation caused by bifrontal brain contusions.

Objective To explore the clinical value and typing characteristic of prenatal ultrasonography for fetal cystic adenomatoid malformation of the lung(CAML).Methods Ultrasonographic features and typing of fetal CAML in 41 cases detected by prenatal ultrasonography were analyzed retrospectively.All cases were followed up until to the induction of labor or birth.Results (1)Site of tumor: in the 41 cases,there were 22 cases on the left side,15 on the right side and 4 on bilateral.(2)Typing diagnosis of prenatal ultrasonography: three cases were CAML type Ⅰ,14 were type Ⅱ,and 24 cases were type Ⅲ.(3)Pathology diagnosis: thirty two cases were induced abortion.CAML was confirmed in 29 cases by autopsy and the classifications were consistent with the prenatal diagnosis of ultrasonography.Three pulmonary sequestration cases were prenatally misdiagnosed as CAML type Ⅲ by ultrasonography.(4)The other nine cases were followed up to birth.Three masses decreased gradually and then disappeared.Six newborns were confirmed as CAML by CT.Their typings were consistent with the postnatal diagnosis.(5)The diagnostic accuracy rate of prenatal ultrasonography for CAML was 92.7%(38/41).Its misdiagnostic rate was 7.3%(3/41).Conclusions Prenatal ultrasonography has a high accuracy rate for the diagnosis and classification of CAML and is the first choice to detect CAML early in pregnancy.It has an important clinical value.Pulmonary sequestration should be distinguished from CAML type Ⅲ because they tend to be confused.

Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of recombinant human epidermal growth factor (rhEGF) on the treatment of chronic tympanic membrane perforation and the function of inner ear. Methods From 2005 to 2008, the outpatients were randomly divided into three groups (A:control group, B:kangfuxin group, C:rhEGF group) . The patients were also divided into three groups (small, medium and large) . The hearing level and the function of inner ear in three groups were compared. Results The hearing level of rhEGF group was 4.5, which was significantly than that of other groups (7.3 and 9.4 respectively, <0.05) . There was no significant difference in the function of inner ear among the three groups ( >0.05) . Conclusion rhEGF can decrease the healing time significantly and increase the healing rates in the treatment of chronic tympanic membrane perforation, and it has no obvious adverse effects on the inner ear.

Objective To retrospectively review the PET/CT imaging features of sarcoidosis and improve the diagnostic accuracy of this benign disease.Methods The PET/CT imaging characteristics and clinical data, including lesion size, distribution, standardized uptake value (SUV) and the ratio of misdiagnosis, of 11 sarcoidosis patients (5 confirmed pathologically and 6 clinically) were retrospectively analyzed.Results (1) Eleven patients had lymph node involvement:mediastinum and hilar lymphadenopathy in 11/11, supraclavicular fossa lymphadenopathy in 8/11, retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy in 8/11, pelvic cavity lymphadenopathy in 3/11.(2) Extrathoracic lesions were found in 7/11 with 4 lung involvement, 2 liver involvement, 1 parotid gland and temporalis involvement and 1 bilateral iliac and sacral bone involvement.(3) The size of the lesions ranged from 1.0 to 4.6 cm and the CT density ranged from 30 to 40 HU.The lesions in the lung are hypodense and in the liver are slightly hypo-or iso-dense.18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake of all lesions was definitely increased in 6 cases; 18F-FDG uptake of some lesions was moderately or definitely increased in 2 cases, and slightly increased uptake in 3 cases.(4) The PET/CT diagnosis was consistent with the final diagnosis in 6/11.The 5 cases of misdiagnosis were malignant lymphoma (4/11) and lung cancer ( 1/11 ).Conclusions Differentiation between sarcoidosis and lymphoma in patients presenting with hilar lynphadenopathy can be difficult.Whole-body PET/CT may be helpful in the differentiation of the two diseases.
