Objective To analyze the distribution and clinical characters of cyanotic congenital heart diseases in newborns.Method We examined the suspicious cases with color doppler ultrasonic cardiogram(CFM),and compared with the results of autopsies.Results The most common congenital diseases in the group were complete transposition of the great arteries,with the proportion of 34.4%, and most of them were compounded cardiovascular disorders. The most common symptom was cyanosis, took the proportion of 84.3%; some patients had no cyanosis, tachypnea and murmurs.The cases with cardiovascular disorders most were combined with type Ⅱrespiratory failure and metabolic acidosis.Conclusions There are many types of congenital heart diseases, the symptoms are untypical,so the suspicious cases shall examine with CFM as early as possible.

Objective To investigate the early-pathologic changes in children′s antrum infected with different types of Hp and study the Hp isolate′s pathogenic.Methods The serum types of CagA and VacA from Hp were determined by Westen-Blot in 70 patients with Hp positive and 36 patients with Hp negative.The standard of gastritis pathologic classification was accordance with that of international made in Sydney. The pathogenic of Hp affecting was evaluated by the degree of inflammation, severity of active gastritis,lymph follicles and atrophy.Results The detection rate of type Ⅰwith high virulence in Hp isolates was 68.1%,mid-type isolates was 27.7% and type Ⅱ with low virulence isolates was 4.2%.To observe the pathologic distinction in 49 patients with type Ⅰisolate,20 patients with mid-type isolate and 3 patients with type Ⅱ isolate,the type Ⅰ and mid-type isolates had significant difference in inflammation and their activity in either antrum or duodenal ampulla.Three patients with type Ⅱ isolate have not active gastritis.Type Ⅰand mid-type isolates had significant difference in lymph follicles,and the lymph follicles caused by type Ⅰwere significant higher than those caused by mid-type.But there were no significant differences in intestinal metaplasia and atrophy.Conclusions TypeⅠisolate with high virulence is the main detection isolate of children infected by Hp in our district.There is inflammation occurrence in antrum specimens in childhood who infected with Hp.
3.Influence of Thyroid Status on Serum Levels of Leptin and Leptin mRNA in Rats

Objective To explore the influence of thyroid status on serum level of leptin and expression of leptin mRNA in rats with hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism.Methods Fifty rats were artificially rendered hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism by L-thyroxine or methimazole and divided into 5 groups.The serum of T 3,T 4,TSH,leptin concentration and expression of leptin mRNA were measured in 5 groups.Results Serum leptin concentration was significantly correlated with weight of rats in 5 groups(P

Objective To explore the clinical characteristics and treatment of infants with cytomegalovirus(CMV)pneumonia.Methods The clinical and auxiliary examination data of 24 patients with CMV pneumonia,which were diagnosed by detection of serum CMV-IgM used enzyme immunodot technique.All patients were treated with ganciclovir (GCV).Results The most common clinical manifestations of CMV pneumonia were cough,breathlessness,fever,crackles and wheezing rale.Chest X-ray findings predominately revealed increased and thickened bilateral lung markings and patchy areas of increased opacity in both lungs.Sixteen cases were cured,8 cases improved.Conclusions Clinical manifestations of infant CMV pneumonia lack specificity.The presence of serum CMV-IgM antibody is a laboratory diagnostic evidence.GCV is the best choice of drug in treatment of infants with CMV pneumonia.

Objective To investigate the changes of serum troponin I (cTnI) in children with severe pneumonia in the early time and its significance in the diagnosis of myocardial damage.Method cTnI was measured by automatic chemo-immuno-analyzer in 47 patients with severe pneumonia during acute stage and 25 patients during recovery stage.Results The levels cTnI in blood of 33 patients with severe pneumonia during the acute stage were obviously higher,with the abnormal rate 70.2%.There was a remarkable difference compared with control group(P

Objective To analyze the clinical features,curative effect and prognosis of extra-pulmonary infections by mycoplasma pneumoniae(MP).Methods ELISA was used to detect anti-MP IgM and IgG.Case histories of 226 patients,whose nasopharyneal lotione and respiratory secretions were positive of virus and bacteria respectively,was analysed retrospectively.Results One hundred and eighteen of the 226 (52.2%) cases suffered from extra-pulmonary infection.Of these infections 38.98%,33.89%,21.11% and 17.79% were found in digestive, urinary, cardiovascular systems and serous membrane respectively.All of the cases were improved after treatment with macrolides antibiotics.All cases were MP IgM positive,35.5% cases were IgG positive.Spatum MP positive rate was 32.2%.Positive rate of cold-agglutination test was 47.46%.Conclusions MP infection may cause many extra-pulmonary complications.When multi-organ infections can not be explained with bacterial and viral infections,MP infection should be considered.

Objective To explore the relationship between cough variant asthma (CVA) and mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) infection.Methods Fifty children with CVA were chosen as the experimental group at random,and 50 children with acute upper respiratory infection,who went to the hospital in the same time and with similar age,were chosen as control group.The MP-IgM of children in both groups were tested by the granule agglutinating method.Results Significant difference (? 2=9.013 P

Objective To determine a possible role for Clara cell secretary protein(CCSP)during acute RSV infection.Method CCSP-deficient [CCSP (-/-)]and wild-type (WT) mice were intratracheally infected with RSV and the lung inflammatory response to RSV infection were assessed.Results RSV-F gene expression increased in the lungs of CCSP (-/-) mice compared to WT mice following RSV infection, consistent with increased viral persistence. Lung inflammation was significantly worsened in CCSP (-/-) mice compared to WT mice after RSV infection. Th2 cytokines and neutrophil chemokines increased in the lungs of CCSP (-/-) mice following RSV infection.Conclusion These findings suggest that lack of CCSP may promote the inflammatory and Th2 immune response to RSV infection.
