Objective To understand the clinical and pathological features of hepatitis B virus-associated glomerulonephritis(HBV-GN).Methods Twenty children with HBV-GN were analysed including 17 cases of nephritic syndrome (4 cases of simple nephrosis, 13 cases of nephritic nephrosis),2 cases of isolated proteinuria, 1 case of nephritic syndrome according to the clinical classification.Results On the basis of pathology of kidney biopsy, there were 15 cases of membranous glomerulonephritis(MN),3 cases of manbranoproliferative glomerulonephritis(MPGN),2 cases of mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis(MsPGN).Eight of 20 cases were treated with recombinated human alpha-interfeon. The average follow-up time was 5.7 years. As the result, complete remission clinically was on 5 cases,partial remission on 2 cases and ineffectiveness on one case. Besides, serum HBsAg, HBeAg were converted to negative on 3 cases , HBeAg disappeared and anti-HBe appeared on one case.Conclusion MN is common in childhood with HBV-GN.It also indicates the prognosis of the associated nephropathies is quite favorable.

Objective To explore the relationship between clinical and pathological changes of complement 1q(C1q) nephropathy. Methods Clinical manifestation, pathologic features including glomerulus change, renal tubule - interstitial change and im-munopathology were compared between 10 cases of C1q nephropathy in children, who were diagnosed by renal biopsy. Results Presentation included idiopathic nephritic syndrome(6 cases), simple hematuria(2 cases), nephritic syndrome(1 case), rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis( 1 case); Renal biopsy revealed focal segmental glomerulosclerosis( FSGS) in 5, minimal-change disease( MCD) and mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis (MsPGN) respectively in two and crescentic glomerulonephritis in one. In addition, there were renal - tubule interstitial changes with 3 cases of grade I and grade II each other, 2 of grade III , 1 of grade IV . The prominent immunofluorescent features was the presence of bright mesangial deposition of C1q. The average follow - up time was 25.7 months. Six cases presenting nephrotic syndrome were resistant to steroid, but 5 were released after immunosuppressive therapy, the other had progressive renal insufficiency. Conclusions C1q nephropathy falls with the clinical - pathologic spectrum of FSGS generally. It is also presented as steroid - resistant nephritic syndrome. Moreover, the prognosis of C1q nephropathy is related to renal tubulointerstitial pathologic lesions not to C1q deposition.

Objective To compare the clinical efficacy of intramedullary pin versus plate fixation for displaced mid-shaft clavicle fractures.Methods The databases,PubMed,CENTAL and CBM,were searched according to the standards of the Cochrane Collaboration for all the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and clinical controlled trials (CCTs) comparing intramedullary pin with plate fixation for treatment of displaced mid-shaft clavicle fractures.In addition,hand search was also conducted in relevant journals.Time limit for search was from the beginning till December 2013.Trial quality was assessed using the modified Jadad scale and effective data were pooled for Meta analysis with software RevMan5.2.7,including wound infection,hospital stay,wound size,intraoperative blood loss,operation duration,implant irritation,implant problems,delayed union,malunion,nonunion,total complications and Constant scoring.Results Three RCTs and 7 CCTs with 697 patients were included in our study.The modified Jadad scoring showed fine quality of the 10 trials.Intramedullary fixation was significantly superior to plate fixation in wound size,intraoperative blood loss,operation duration,hospital stay,wound infection,and symptomatic hardware (P ＜ 0.05),but led to a significantly higher rate of implant problems (P ＜ 0.05).However,no significant differences were identified in total complication rate,delayed union,nonunion,malunion or Constant score (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The superiority of intramedullary fixation for displaced mid-shaft clavicle fracture lies in its advantages of minimally invasion,such as limited incision,less intraoperative bleeding,shorter operation time and hospital stay,less wound infection and implant irritation.Ahhough intramedullary fixation may lead to a higher rate of implant problems,it shows no significant differences from plate fixation in bone healing and functional recovery.

Objective To investigate the relationship of iPTH levels, calcium and phosphorus metabolism with cardiovascular event status in the chronic renal failure (CRF) patients. Methods This article retrospectivly studied the clinical and laboratory data of 87 CRF patients. 66 patients of A group didnt occur cardiovascular events,and 21 cases of B group occurred cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events. This article analyzed iPTH levels,serum calcium, phosphorus, calcium and phosphorus product and therelationship between cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events between the two groups. Results Decreased iPTH,increased serum C reactive protein and increased lipoprotein(a) had relationship with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events in patients with chronic renal failure,but calcium,phosphorus,calcium and phosphorus product has nothing to do with the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events. Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events increased significantly in dialysis patients than in non - dialysis patients. Conclusiou Chronic renal failure patients on dialysis levels of serum iPTH, CRP level, LP(a) level and dialysis could lead to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events.

AIM:The model of Salvia miltiorrhiza extracted by alcohol based on adaptive network-based fuzzy inference system(ANFIS)was studied in this paper.METHODS:The ANFIS model was set up by a set of experimental data which were gained on a pilot extraction condition.Then the tanshinone ⅡA content of the alcohol extract from Salvia miltiorrhiza in processing conditions could be predicted by this ANFIS model.The Radix Salvia miltiorrhiza was extracted by alcohol thermal reflux;then initially created a fuzzy inference system model based on network and trained by mixing learning arithmetic.RESULTS:The relative errors between the predicted values and the experimental values were in a allowable range,there were only 4 points greater than 10% of totally 90 calibration points.CONCLUSION:The analytical and experimental results show that the method can effectively forecast the content of the effective ingredient according to preset extraction conditions.

Object To study the inhibitory effects and mechanism of pseudolaric acid B (PAB) on the growth of LiBr cell line. Methods PAB in different concentrations was added into the medium in which LiBr cells were cultured. The changes of cell morphology were observed by phase contrast microscope. Cytotoxicity of PAB was detected by MTT. The number of apoptotic cell was calculated by double fluorescent staining. The level of p21 WAF1 protein was measured with immunocytochemistry. Results The growth of LiBr cell line was remarkably inhibited by PAB. The IC 50 values of PAB for LiBr cells was 2.5?10 -5 mol/L. The inhibitory rate and the apoptotic cell rate were related with the medicine concentration. The level of p21 WAF1 protein in LiBr cells treated with PAB was obviously increased. Conclusion PAB can effectively inhibit the proliferation of LiBr cell line.

Authentications of Chinese herbal medicine have a critical effect in Chinese clinical medicine. DNA molecular marker, as an important component for true or false authentication, is more and more widely used in iden-tification of Chinese medicinal materials. At the same time, many new methods for authentication of Chinese medici-nal materials are continuously emerging. But the systematically comparative analysis of these new methods is lack. The present study taking Lonicera japonica as an example, systematically compared principles, characteristics, ex-periment methods, detection time and the application scope of express sequence tag-simple sequence repeat (EST-SSR), polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP), allele-specific PCR (AS-PCR), DNA barcoding and loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP), and put forward corresponding improve-ment opinions. This study can help to screen appropriate approach for rapid authentication of L. japonica and offer demonstrating to other Chinese herbal medicines.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of modified total pelvic reconstruction for pelvic organ prolapse in elderly women.Methods 105 patients required operation for treatment of pelvic organ prolapse were enrolled in this study.Patients were divided into experimental group (n =68,treated with the modified total pelvic reconstruction) and control group (n=37,receiving prolift procedure).Objective indexes including bleeding volume,operative time,residual urine volume,postoperative complications,medical expenses,hospitalization time were recorded.Clinical efficacy and follow-up results were recorded and compared between the two groups at 6 months after operation.Results Bleeding volume and hospitalization costs were lower in experimental group than in control group (both P＜0.05),while the operative time,residual urine volume,time out of bed,anal exhaust time,the maximum body temperature,mean postoperative hospital stay showed no significant differences between the two groups (all P＞0.05).Vaginal perforation was observed in 7 cases,with 4 cases in experimental group and 3 cases in control group.No serious complications such as bladder and rectum perforation were observed.According to pelvic organ prolapse quantitation (POP-Q) score,64 cases (94.1％) were cured and 4 cases (5.9％) were invalid in experimental group,while 36 cases (97.3％) were cured and 1 case (2.7％) was invalid in control group.The noninferiority test showed that clinical efficacy in experimental group was non-inferior to that in control group (u=2.252,P＜0.05).Conclusions Modified total pelvic reconstruction is an effective and safe minimally invasive surgery,which is similar to prolift surgical operation,but it is relatively inexpensive,which is easier to be accepted by Chinese patients,with a great perspective in clinical application.
