Objective To observe the nasal flush combined budesonide suspension liquid atomizing inhaled treatment of allergic rhinitis in infants,explore the allergic rhinitis treatments in infants. Methods 137 cases diagnosed as allergic rhinitis were collected and randomly divided into 70 cases as the treatment group and 67 patients as the control group. The patients in control group were washed the nasal cavity with 2.8% warm sodium chloride solution using 50ml and 0.5% metronidazole injection 30ml by turn. At the first week, 1 time/d, then one time every other day,while according to age,body mass the patients were given to loratadine, 1 time/d. Treatment group were used budesonide nasal inhalation of 1 ml at the base of treatment of the control group. Before and after the treatment , nasal congestion,sneezing, flow clear nose, sleep snoring and sleep quality score index were observed and compared.Results 70%of the treatment group the nasal congestion,sneezing,flow clear in 3 times after treatment with ease.The children sleep quality improved and the snoring fewer over night,only 56.7% of the control group of these symptoms improved. After the treatment the efficiency evaluation of treatment group and control group respectively was 95.1% and 77.7% ,there was statistically significant difference( x2 =9.83 ,P <0. 01 ). 137 cases of patients without a side effects. Conclusion curative effect of nasal flush combined budesonide suspension liquid nasal spray inhaled treatment of allergic rhinitis was distinct,infant effect-acting quickly,without side effects,easy to use.

Objective To evaluate the safety of cetuximab combined with intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) plus concurrent cisplatin chemotherapy in locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) in a Chinese multicenter clinical study.MethodsFrom July 2008 to April 2009,100Patients with primary stage Ⅲ- Ⅳb non-keratinizing NPC were enrolled.The planned dose of IMRT to gross tumor volume and positive cervical lymph nodes was 66.0-75.9 Gy and 60-70 Gy in 30-33 fractions.Cisplatin (80 mg/m2,q3 week (w)) and cetuximab (400 mg/m2 one w before radiation,and then 250mg/m2 per w) were given concurrently.The adverse events (AEs) were graded according to common terminology criteria for adverse events v3.0.ResultsThe compliance of the entire group of patient was satisfactory.Actual median dose to gross tumor volume was 69.96 Gy,and the median dose to positive cervical lymph nodes was 68 Gy.Median dose of cisplatin was 133 mg,median first-dose of cetuximab was 690 mg,and median weekly dose was 410 mg.AEs were well tolerated and manageable,mainly consisting of acneiform skin eruptions,dermatitis and mucositis.Grade 4 mucositis was observed in 2% of the patients and no other grade 4 AEs were observed.ConclusionsThe combined treatment modality of IMRT +concurrent chemotherapy + cetuximab in loco-regionally advanced NPC is well tolerated.

Objective:To explore the relationship between the Spike and the Gamma rhythm of the local field potential (LFP) in Alzheimer's disease (AD) transgenic mice during fear memory activity.Methods:Six-month-old APP/PS1/tau three transgenic (3xTg) mice and wild-type (WT) mice were divided into 3xTg group and WT group, with 10 mice in each group. The electrodes were embedded into the hippocampus of mice under sterile conditions, and the behavioral experiment of conditioned fear box test was carried out two weeks later. The changes of Gamma rhythm, Spike and Burst firing were recorded and analyzed by the wireless telemetry device which embedded in the mouse head. Finally, the correlation between Gamma rhythm and Spike was calculated by entropy value.Results:(1) In behavioral experiments, the freezing ratio caused by conditioned stimulation (CS) in 3xTg mice was ((54.07±2.32)%), which was significantly lower than that of WT mice ((76.21±2.88)%) ( t=4.796, P<0.01). (2) Simultaneously recorded the average power of the Gamma oscillation in the Pre-CS period of the WT mice was ((11.574±1.147) dB), which increased to ((18.108±1.177) dB) after CS ( t=3.386, P<0.01). After CS administration, the average power of Gamma in 3xTg group((12.346±1.345) dB) was significantly lower than that of WT group ( t=3.423, P<0.01). (3) The frequency of Spike release in WT mice during the Pre-CS period was ((5.667±1.475)times/s), significantly increased to ((11.008±1.335) times/s) after CS ( t=3.542, P<0.01). The frequency of Spike release of 3xTg mice after CS ((5.249±1.033) times/s) was significantly lower than that of WT group ( t=4.788, P<0.01). (4) The Burst duration of WT group in pre-CS and CS period were ((0.550±0.043)s) and ((1.075±0.034)s), respectively. It suggested that the Burst firing frequency of WT group increased significantly after conditional stimulation ( t=5.188, P<0.01). However, the release interval of 3xTg group after CS ((0.619±0.033)s) was significantly lower than that of WT group ( t=3.352, P<0.01). (5) After CS, the Spike-Gamma entropy curve of WT mice was always higher than that of 3xTg mice. The maximum correlation of WT group and 3xTG group were (0.403±0.031) and (0.314±0.028), respectively. The Spike-Gamma correlation of the 3xTg group was significantly lower than WT mice ( t=3.372, P<0.01). Conclusion:The defect of fear memory in Alzheimer's disease may be caused by the disharmony of Spike-LFP (Gamma) distribution.

Objective:
To study the alterations of mitochondrial biological characteristics during both cellular replicative and premature senescence induced by hydrogen peroxide in human embryonic lung fibroblasts (HEFs).
Methods:
The premature senescence was induced by 400 μmol/L H2O2 once a day at the same time and with 2 hours each time, after four consecutive days the premature senescence models were classified into premature senescence initiation group (PSi) and premature senescence persistence group (PSp). Based on the life span of HEFs, the cell replicative senescence was divided into five groups included young-age (22 PDL), middle-age (35 PDL), replicative senescence (49 PDL), PSi and PSp. The mitochondrial distribution, relative content, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) contents, 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) levels, the relative mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) as well as mitochondrial DNA methyltransferase 1 (mtDNMT1) mRNA levels, mtDNA copy number, the relative TFAM protein level and the total enzyme activity of mitochondrial DNA methyltransferases (mtDNMTs) were detected in five senescence groups.
Results:
The mtDNA copy number, 8-OHdG contents, level of mtDNMT1 mRNA and mtDNMTs activity in 49 PDL group were higher than those in 22 PDL group (all
