OBJECTIVE:To analyze the effects of different disinfectants on results of antibiotics skin test,and to improve the accuracy of the judgment results of antibiotics skin test. METHODS:1 500 patients undergoing antibiotics skin test of penicillin and cephalosporin were randomly divided into group A and group B with 750 patients in each group. Group A was given 75% etha-nol disinfection,and group B was given iodine disinfection. The incidence of false positive results were compared after disinfected with 2 kinds of disinfectants. RESULTS:The incidence of false positive result in group B was lower than in group A,with statisti-cally significant difference (χ2=10.004,P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:For skin disinfection of antibiotics skin test,iodine is better and safer than 75%ethanol.

Objective:To compare the effects of different anesthesia methods on stress hormones and hemodynamic changes in the patients with gynecological laparoscopic surgery. Methods:Retrospective analysis was carried out. Totally 145 patients with gynecolog-ical laparoscopic surgery were divided into two groups according to the anesthesia method, the control group with 72 cases was given routine remifentanyl propofol intravenous anesthesia, and the observation group with 73 cases was given routine propofol isoflurane com-posite anesthesia. Such hemodynamic indices as SBP, DBP and HR, and plasma NE, E, cort and AT II levels at different time points in the two groups were studied and compared, and adverse drug reactions were also observed in the two groups. Results:The BP and HR at T2 and T3 time point in the two groups were significantly lower than those at T0 time point (P<0. 05), and those in the obser-vation group were lower than those in the control group at the same time point(P<0. 05). The levels of NE, E, cort and ATⅡat T2 and T3 time point in the two groups were significantly higher than those at T0 time point (P<0. 05), while the increase in the observa-tion group was lower than that in the control group (P<0. 05). The incidence of adverse drug reactions (ADR), such as respiratory depression, hypertension, bradycardia and so on, and the total incidence of ADR in the observation group were both lower than those in the control group (P<0. 05). Conclusion:Compared with remifentanyl propofol intravenous anesthesia, propofol isoflurane composite anesthesia can keep the hemodynamic stability more effectively and reduce the stress reaction with fewer ADR and promising safety, which is worthy of wider application in clinics.

Objective To compare the clinical efficacy of ilaprazole standard triple therapy with omeprazole standard triple therapy in the treatment of patients with Helicobacter pylori ( Hp ) positive duodenal bulb ulcer. Methods 100 patients with Hp positive duodenal bulb ulcer were randomly divided into the two groups by lottery, given ilaprazole standard triple therapy and omeprazole standard triple therapy respectively.After 5 weeks of the course,take gastroscopy and the enzyme 13C-urea breath test,and the Hp eradication rate,clinical efficacy,ulcer heal-ing rate and adverse reactions were observed.Results The Hp eradication rate is better than the omeprazole group (92%vs 78%,χ2 =3.853,P<0.05),while the ulcer healing rate were no significant (96%vs 90%,χ2 =1.561, P>0.05).Conclusion It is a good method in the treatment of Hp positive duodenal bulb ulcer for ilaprazole stand-ard triple therapy.

To screen potential human soluble epoxide hydrolase (hsEH) inhibitors, a high-throughput screening model in 384-well microplate with total volume of 50 microL was established. Recombinant hsEH was cloned and expressed in E. coli. and its specific substrate PHOME was synthesized. The HTS model was based on fluorescence analysis with enhanced sensitivity and specificity (Z' = 0.65). A total of 47 360 samples (including 25 040 compounds and 22 320 natural products) were screened, of which 950 samples with inhibition greater than 80% were selected for further rescreening. Finally, two compounds with high inhibitory activity were identified, whose IC50 value were 8.56 and 4.31 micromol x L(-1), separately. The results indicated that the method was stable, sensitive, reproducible and also suitable for high-throughput screening.

Objective To investigate the effects of edaranvone on lung injury induced by myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in rats. Methods Twenty-four male Wistar rats weighing 250-300 g were randomly assigned to one of 4 groups ( n = 6 each): group Ⅰ sham operation (group S); group Ⅱ myocardial I/R and group Ⅲ and Ⅳ different doses of edaravone ( group E1, E2 ). The animals were anesthetized, intubated and mechanically ventilated. In group Ⅱ-Ⅳ myocardial I/R was induced by occlusion of left anterior descending coronary artery for 45 min followed by 3 h reperfusion. In group Ⅲ and Ⅳ edavarone 3 and 10 mg/kg was administered via right femoral vein at 1 min before reperfusion respectively. The animals were sacrificed by exsanguination at the end of 3 h reperfusion. Blood was collected for determination of serum CK-MB activity and total protein content. The left lung was lavaged and the broncho-alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was colleted for determination of protein content. Pulmonary permeability index (PPI) was calculated. The lung tissue was obtained for determination of BD-2 mRNA and protein and TNF-α expression. Results The serum CK-MB activity, PPI,BD-2 mRNA and protein and TNF-α expression were significantly higher in group I/R, E1 and E2 than in group S,but significantly lower in group E1 and E2 than in group I/R and in group E2 than in group E1. Conclusion Edaravone can reduce myocardial I/R-induced lung injury by scavenging oxygen free radicals and inhibiting inflammatory response of lung tissues in rats.

Objective To explore the effects of 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3] on memory CD4+T cells of focal proliferative IgA nephropathy (IgAN)patients.Methods (1) Total of twenty incipient focal proliferative IgAN patients (Lee classification:Ⅲ level) were chosen as IgAN group and 20 healthy volunteers were chosen as healthy control group.The level of serum 1,25(OH)2D3 was measured by radioimmunoassay (RIA).Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were separated by the method of Ficoll density gradient centrifugation and were stimulated with anti-CD3/anti-CD28 in the absence or presence of various concentrations of 1,25(OH)2D3,Dexamethasone(DEX) and 1,25(OH)2D3and DEX combined.PBMCs were cultured for 72 hours and the levels of IFN-γ,IL-4,IL-17A,Foxp3 were measured by flow cytometry(FCM),standing for the levels of Th1,Th2,Th17,Treg.(2) IgAN group was divided into two subgroups (proteinuria ＜ 1 g/24 h subgroup,proteinuria≥ 1 g/24 h subgroup),then the serum levels of 1,25(OH)2D3,IFN-γ,IL-4,IL-17A,Foxp3 were compared.Results Compared with healthy control group,serum 1,25(OH)2D3 level of IgAN group was significantly lower (P ＜ 0.05).Serum 1,25(OH)2D3 level in proteinuria≥ 1 g/24 h subgroup was significantly lower than proteinuria ＜ 1 g/24 h subgroup and healthy control group (P ＜ 0.05).The level in proteinuria ＜ 1 g/24 h subgroup was lower than healthy control group,but the difference was not statistically significant (P ＞ 0.05).(2) The levels of IFN-γ and IL-17A and the ratios of IFN-γ/IL-4,IL-17A/Foxp3 in IgAN group increased significantly compared with healthy control group (all P ＜ 0.05),and the level of Foxp3 decreased significantly (P ＜ 0.05).The level of IL-4 also increased,but the difference was not statistically significant (P ＞ 0.05).The levels of IFN-γand IL-17A and the ratio of IL-17A/Foxp3 in proteinuria≥ 1 g/24 h subgroup increased significantly,and the level of Foxp3 decreased significantly,compared with urinary protein ＜ 1 g/24 h subgroup and healthy control group (P ＜ 0.05).The ratio of IFN-γ/IL-4 in proteinuria≥1 g/24 h subgroup and proteinuria ＜ 1 g/24 h subgroup all increased,compared with healthy control group,and the ratio in proteinuria≥ 1 g/24 h subgroup increased significantly (P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference in the level of IL-4 among all groups.(3) After treatment with 1,25(OH)2D3,the levels of IFN-γ and IL-17A and the ratios of IFN-γ/IL-4 and IL-17A/Foxp3 decreased significantly,and the level of Foxp3 increased significantly (P ＜ 0.05),and these effects were more obvious as the increase of the drug concentration.The level of IL-4 did not change significantly.The combination of 1,25(OH)2D3 and DEX had a synergistic inhibition on the production of IFN-γ,IL-4,IL-17A,and the ratios of IFN-γ/IL-4 and IL-17A/Foxp3,and had a synergistic promotion on the production of Foxp3.Conclusions There is a certain extent of vitamin D deficiency in focal proliferative IgAN patients,which may be associated with the severity of proteinuria.The disorder of immunomodulatory effects of memory CD4+ T cell might exist in the patients of focal proliferative IgAN.1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 might have beneficial effects on the immunoregulation of memory CD4+T cells of focal proliferative IgAN patients.
