Objective To evaluate the effect of pidotimod combined with antibacterials on the immunologic functions and clinical curative efficacy for patients undergoing recurrent respiratory tract infections.Methods Patients with recurrent respiratory tract infections (150 cases) were enrolled in Matemal and Child Health Hospital of Guangyuan from August 2013 to January 2016,which divided to two groups randomly,Group A (n =75) accepted traditional antibacterials treatment,and Group B (n =75) adopted pidotimod combined with antibacterials.The clinical symptom and immunologic functions of patients during treatment were tested,and the clinical curative efficacy of patients was evaluated in the follow-up period.Results After treatment,the disappear time of cough,fever,tonsil inflammation and pulmonary wheezing in treatment group was significantly shorter than that of control group (P ＜ 0.05).After treatment,the levels of serum immunoglobulin in two groups were higher than those before treatment (P ＜ 0.05),and the treatment group was significantly higher than control group (P ＜ 0.05).After treatment,the relative activities of CD3+,CD4+,CD8+,and NK cells in two groups increased significantly (P ＜ 0.05),the relative content of CD4+/CD8+ was also increased (P ＜0.05),and the improvement of above indexes in the treatment group was more obvious than those in control group (P ＜ 0.05).After treatment,total effective rate of treatment group was significantly higher than that of control group (P ＜ 0.05),the recurrence of infection in the treatment group is significantly lower than that in the control group (P ＜ 0.05),and the recurrence duration was significantly shorter than control group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The clinical curative of pidotimod combined with antibacterials was remarkable for patients of recurrent respiratory tract infections,which deserved popularization not only improving the immunologic functions,but also decreasing the times of recurrence.

Objective To investigate the relations between cigarette smoking and the morbidity and prognosis of coronary artery disease(CAD).Methods A total of 3186 patients were divided into 3 groups: non-smoking group(n=1714),stop-smoking group(n=462) and the smoking(n=1010).All the patients came from the registry study of DESIRE-plus(Drug-Eluting Stent Impact on Revascularization plus).We intended to investigate the relations between cigarette smoking and CAD by analyzing the information of genernal clinical data,coronary angiography(CAG),Revascularization and major adverse cardiac cerebral vessels events(MACCE).Results The mean age of patients in the non-smoking group,the stop-smoking group and the smoking group was 62.5?9.8,60.5?9.9 and 55.3?10.3 years old,respectively(P

ObjectiveTo investigate the expression and localization of midkine (MK) in human hepatocellular carcinoma. MethodsIn situ hybridization and immunohistochemical analysis for MK were performed on samples of both tumor tissues and paratumor tissues from HCC and benign liver tumors. ResultsThe distribution and localization of the MK transcripts′ signals determined by in situ hybridization were similar to those obtained by immunohistochemical analysis. Most HCC tissues showed enhanced positive reaction within cytoplasm to both MK probe and MK immunostaining. There was no significant difference in clinicopathological parameters between MK negative and positive cases of HCC. ConclusionsHuman hepatocellular carcinoma overexpresses MK at the mRNA and protein level.

[Objective]To observe the clinical effect of the treatment of hyperplastic nonunion of the tibia with interlocking intramedullary nailing,fascia pedicled callus flap and bone grafting.[Method]Twelve cases of nonunion of the tibia were treated with intramedullary interlocking nailing,fascia pedicled callus flap and bone grafting,and there were 8 males and 4 females.The patients age ranged from 26 to 64 years,with an average of 45 years.[Result]All cases were followed-up for an average of 48 months and achieved a solid union within 4～6 months.[Conclusion]Intramedullary interlocking nailing,fascia pedicled callus flap and bone grafting have the design of the reasonable biomechanics,the function of untispinning and unticurtailing,less partial blood decompose.The fascia pedicled callus flap and iliac bone grafting could result in solid union and it is a recomment method for promoting bone-healing up after grafting and forming.

Malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) is a common soft tissue sarcoma, which shows a strong predilection for distant metastases. Due to its limited response to radiotherapy and chemotherapy , poor prognosis is generally observed. A patient with MFH, who developed pulmonary metastases, postoperatively took ZD1839, an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor, because it was found that there was EGFR expression on the surface of the tumor cells. After a course of treatment (28 days), the pulmonary metastases disappeared, and the patient enjoyed a complete remission.

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of injection of consciousness promoted drug through carotid artery on persistent vegetate state (PVS).Methods33 PVS cases were divided into the treatment group (n=15) and control group (n=18). All patients were treated with routine therapy, but the treatment group added with injection of consciousness-promoted drug through the carotid artery. The therapeutic effects of two groups were evaluated.ResultsAfter the treatment, the therapeutic effects of patients in two groups were better than that of before treatment (P<0.05), and the treatment group was better than control group(P<0.05).ConclusionInjection of consciousness-promoted drug through the carotid artery is effective to PVS patients.

This study was aimed to analyze the clinical features of paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesia (PKD) and extend the understanding of this disease. From August, 2008 to October, 2010, 9 patients were diagnosed with PKD in the Department of Neurology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University, China. The data involving clinical demographic characteristics, somatosensory evoked potentials, results of electromyography, video electroencephalography (EEG), brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computerized tomography (CT) were collected. All PKD patients exhibited unilateral or bilateral recurrent episodic dyskinetic attacks triggered by sudden voluntary movements. The duration of the attacks ranged from several seconds to one minute. The attack frequency ranged from approximately once in several months to more than 10 times in a day. Patients suffered from no conscious disorders during the attack, and no neurological signs were found during the period between attacks. No abnormal somatosensory evoked potentials were found. Routine EEG, video EEG monitoring or brain imaging showed normal findings. Classical treatment for anti-epilepsy, including carbamazepine and topiramate, was administered to the patients and proved to be effective. It was concluded that PKD is characteristically triggered by sudden voluntary movement; no abnormal electroneurophysiological findings are observed in PKD, and antiepileptic drugs are effective in treating the disorder.

Objective To explore the indications, superiority and surgical technique of periareolar approach in the management of benign breast diseases. Methods 132 patients with benign breast disease (91 cases of Fibroadenoma, 12 cases of limited gland hyperplasia, 8 cases of cyst, 2 cases of benign phyllodes tumor and 6 cases of male gynecomastia) underwent operation through areolar incision. Results All patients were followed up for 1-10 months. 107 cases were satisfied with their treatment,19 cases were not quite satisfied with the relatively long incision, and 6 cases were not satisfied with the front incision. The one-month-later reexamination showed that 117 cases feel good and 15 cases had partial numbness of the nipple (15/132, 11.36%). All but two patients wound healing delayed because of local hematoma (2/132, 1.52%). Neither necrosis nor infection was found. Conclusions With the advantages of fewer complications and cosmetic effect, periareolar approach can be applied in management of various benign breast diseases. Factors such as indications, anatomical layer, postoperative molding, appropriate drainage, pressure dressing should be taken into consideration for the success of operation.
