Recent studies have showed that nanotechnology pro-vides a new revolution for the treatment of complex,refractory autoimmune or inflammatory diseases.Nanoparticles combined with specific autoantigens can restore the peripheral tolerance and reduce immunopathological damage in a variety of autoimmune disease models.In this paper,we review the progress and trends of nanomedcine for treatment of autoimmune or inflammatory dis-eases as immunomodulatory therapy from the physical and chemi-cal characteristics of nanoparticles,the route of administration, and the role and mechanism of induction or reconstitution of im-mune tolerance,which provides a theoretical basis for seeking new treatments to treat inflammatory diseases.

Objective To investigate the alterations of serological endothelin(ET) in patients with kawasaki disease(KD) and its relation with coronary dilatation(CAD).Methods Serological ET were measured in 50 cases of patients with KD in acute phase as well as subacute phase; 30 cases of patients with acute febrile infection(IC) in infective phases and 30 healthy children(HC).Results 1.ET in subacute phase significantly increased than that in acute phase.2.In both acute and subacute phases of KD, ET significantly elevated higher than that in HC; and ET in subacute phase significantly elevated than that of IC. 3. Fifty-four percentage patients with KD were complicated with CAD. For CAD subgroup, ET had no difference with CAD subgroup in subacute phase.Conclusion ET has still increases in subacute of KD,which indicates the relation with coronary artery lesion.

Objective To evaluate the clinic efficacy of sufentanil and remifentanil by target- controlled infusion (TCI) combined with propofol in patients undergoing endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA).Methods Sixty patients,ASA Ⅰ ～ Ⅱ,undergoing elective EBUS-TBNA were randomly divided into group S ( sufentanil group),group R (remifentanil group) and group SR (sufentanil + remifentanil group),each group were twenty patients.The anesthesia of all groups is propofol intravenous anesthesia with 2％ lidocaine topical anesthesia,to controll BIS between 50 and 60 during surgery.Heart rate(HR),mean arterial pressure(MAP) pulse oxygen saturation( SpO2 ) and respiratory rate (RR) were recorded and compared 5mins after entering room(T0),30mins after the beginning of surgery(T1 ) and after surgery(T3).Arterial blood gas and the times of cough during surgery were also recorded and compared in all groups.The use of propofol and lidocaine,the wake-up time,satisfaction with anesthesia and adverse reactions in 6 hrs after surgery were also obtained.Results ( 1 ) RR decreased distinctly in group R and PaCO2 increased distinctly in group S and group R compared with that of group SR (P ＜0.05) during surgery.(2)The times of cough and the wake-up time lessened distinctly in group R and group SR compared with that of group S ( P ＜0.05 ).(3) The use of propofol and lidocaine,satisfaction with anesthesia and adverse reactions in 6 hrs after surgery were similar in all groups ( P ＞ 0.05 ).Conclusion Sufentanil compounded remifentanil by TCI combined with propofol is a safe and feasible anesthesia option for EBUS-TBNA,which provides better efficacy,high satisfaction and less side effects compared with using alone of sufentanil and remifentanil respectively.

METHODS:Retrieved from CNKI, CBM,VIP and Wanfang Database,Medline,PubMed and Cochrane Library,randomized controlled trials (RCT) about Bushen huoxue herb(test group)and celecoxib(control group)in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis were collected. Meta-analysis was per-formed by using Rev Man 5.3 software after data extraction and quality evaluation. RESULTS:Totally 15 RCTs were included,in-volving 1 129 patients. Results of Meta-analysis showed,the total effective rate [RR=1.09,95%CI(1.04,1.14),P<0.01] and visu-al ache(VAS)score [MD=-0.49,95%CI(-0.94,-0.03),P<0.05] in test group were significantly higher than control group, the differences were statistically significant;there was no significant difference in knee function score [Lequesne:MD=0.24,95%CI (-1.20,1.68),P>0.05;Lysholm:MD=2.32,95%CI(-1.95,6.58),P>0.05;WOMAC:MD=-2.87,95%CI(-6.38,0.64), P>0.05] and the incidence of adverse reactions in 2 groups[RR=0.49,95%CI(0.22,1.09),P=0.08]. CONCLUSIONS:Bushen huoxue herb shows better efficacy and analgesic effect than celecoxib in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis,and is similar to cele-coxib in terms of improving knee function score and safety.

The index components contents of different time and different stubbles in honeysuckle were measured by HPLC, and were analysis by using the method of SPSS. Results showed that the content of index ingredients of different time had differences, and firstly decreased, then increased with time. The content of index ingredients of different stubbles had significantly differences, and firstly decreased, then increased with time. The chlorogenic acid contents were 2.059%-3.593%. The luteolosid contents were 0.110%-0.171%. Results indicated that the best picking buds time is before seven o'clock in the morning and evening at before and after seven o'clock, the index component content is higher. Picking buds in spring and at autumn index component content is higher; Picking buds in summer index component content is low. The experiment provides theoretical support for quality control in the whole process of the honeysuckle harvested and comprehensive utilization of honeysuckle.

OBJECTIVETo compare the effect of transurethral resection of the prostate combined with endocrine therapy (TURP + ET) with that of αlA-blockers combined with ET ((αlA-b + ET) in the treatment of bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) in patients with advanced prostate cancer (PCa), and to investigate the safety of the TURP + ET for the treatment of PCa with BOO.

METHODSWe retrospectively analyzed 63 cases of PCa with BOO, 28 treated by αlA-b + ET and the other 35 by TURP + ET. We obtained the residual urine volume (RV), maximum urinary flow rate (Qmax), International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), and quality of life score (QoL) before and after treatment along with the overall survival rate of the patients, followed by comparison of the parameters between the two methods.

RESULTSAt 3 months after treatment, RV, IPSS, and QoL in the TURP + ET group were significantly decreased from (137.8 ± 27.6) ml, (22.3 ± 3.6), and (4.2 ± 0.8) to (29 ± 13.6) ml, (7.8 ± 2.1), and (1.6 ± 0.5) respectively (P < 0.05), while Qmax increased from (5.6 ± 2.1) ml/s to (17.6 ± 2.7) ml/s (P < 0.05); the former three parameters in the αlA-b + ET group decreased from (133.6 ± 24.9) ml, (21.5 ± 3.2), and (4.7 ± 1.1) to (42 ± 18.3) ml, (12.8 ± 2.6), and (2.5 ± 0.7) respectively (P < 0.05), while the latter one increased from (6.3 ± 2.4) ml/s to (11.7 ± 2.3) ml/s (P < 0.05), all with statistically significant differences between the two groups (P < 0.05). The overall survival rate of the TURP + ET group was not significantly different from that of the αlA-b + ET group (51.4% vs 46.4% , P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONTURP + ET is preferable to αlA-b + ET for its advantage of relieving BOO symptoms in advanced PCa without affecting the overall survival rate of the patients.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate clinical outcomes of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstruction under arthroscopy combined with limited open repair of medial collateral ligament (MCL) for the treatment of multiple ligament injuries of knee joints.

METHODSFrom March 2006 and June 2012,the data of 14 patients (14 knees) with multiple injuries of ACL, PCL, and MCL were collected. There were 8 males and 6 females with an average age of (31.8 +/- 8.1) years old (ranged, 20 to 49 years old). All the patients were performed with X-ray and MRI examination, and the results showed that 10 patients had combined with injuries of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) and medial collateral ligament (MCL); 4 patients had ALC,PCL and posterolateral corner (PLC) injuries. Four patients had medial meniscus injuries and 2 patients had lateral meniscus injuries. The MCL,PLC and meniscus injuries were treated with operation on the first stage, and functional exercises were performed 3 weeks after fixation. The reconstruction operation of ACL and (or) PCL was performed at the second stage under arthroscopy 3 to 6 months later when the movement range of knee joint recovered to the normal level with obvious relaxation.

RESULTSAll incisions healed by primary intention. All the patients were followed up with a mean duration of 48.9 months (ranged, 24 to 80 months). The Lysholm score was improved from preoperative 19.6 +/- 0.9 to the latest follow-up 87.1 +/- 2.8 (t=12.3, P<0.01). The International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) rating: 9 cases nearly recovered to normal, 5 cases were abnormal.

CONCLUSIONFor multiple ligament injuries in the knee, staged repair and reconstruction can effectively restore knee joint stability and function.
