Objective To study the influence of hydrocortisone sodium succinct by intravenous infusion or continuous intravenous micro pumping on the vital signs,shock duration,blood glucose and mortality in the patients with severe sepsis secondary shock.Methods Ninety patients with septic shock treated in our hospital from June 2014 to September 2016 were selected and divided into the control group and observasion group by using the random number table method,45 cases in each group.The control group was given hydrocortisone sodium succinct 200mg/d by slow intravenous drip for 2h,while the observasion group was given hydrocortisone sodium succinct 8.33mg/h by continuous intravenous micro pumping.The two groups were treated for continuous 5 d.The blood glucose,hemodynamics and prognosis were compared between the two groups.Results In the observasion group,the blood glucose indicators such as the time window of high blood glucose,LAGE,MBG and CV levels were lower than those in the control group,the difference had statistical significance (P<0.05).The hemodynamic indicators such as HR,CVP and MAP between the two groups before treatment and at 6,24 h and 5 d after treatment had no statistical difference between the two groups (P>0.05).The shock duration,ICU stay length,total hospital stay and 28 d mortality in the observasion group were lower than those in the control group,but the difference between the two groups had no statistical significance (P>0.05).Conclusion Continuous intravenous micro pumping of hydrocortisone sodium succinct can stabilize blood glucose fluctuation range in the patients with septic shock,but the hemodynamic indexes and prognosis have no obvious improvement.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) with scissors knife in difficult cases.Methods A total of 36 sessions of ESD in 34 patients were performed from May 2010 to May 2012 with application of new scissors knife.The complications and followup outcomes were recorded.Results All lesions were removed successfully with an en bloc resection rate at 91.7％.Delayed bleeding occurred in 2 patients (5.6％),and both of them were cured sucessfully with endoscopy.No perforation happened and the average hospitalization time was 5 days.Follow-up endoscopy performed 6 or 12 months after ESD in 6 patients revealed no recurrence or residual lesions.Other patients are under follow-up now.Conclusion The scissors knife is easy to manipulate,which can ensure the safety and efficiency of ESD.

Patrolling monocyte (PMo) is a subset of monocytes.Its main function is patrolling vascular endothelium and removing cellular debris from the microvasculature.Studies have revealed that PMo can inhibit the growth of tumor cells,recruiting NK cells to kill tumor cells.PMo can prevent tumor cells metastasis to the lung,which plays a role of immunosurveillance.PMo may be a target for cancer immunotherapy.

Background Proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) is one of the major causes of retinal detachment surgery failure.Based on proteomic studies of PVR vitreous,the insulin-like growth factor binding protein-6 (IGFBP-6) protein was specifically expressed in the vitreous and serum of PVR patients.Furthermore,its expression level is higher in the vitreous and serum in severe PVR patients than that in mild PVR patients.Objective This experiment was to detect the expression of IGFBP-6 in a PVR rat model.Methods Seventy 7-week old male SPF Wistar rats were included and were randomized into the PVR model group and control group.A mixture of RPE-J cell suspension(5 μl) and platelet-rich plasma (5 μl) was intravitreally injected in the left eyes of adult Wistar rats to establish the PVR model,and normal saline solution was administered in the same way in the control group.The rat eyes were clinically examined 1 week,2,3 and 4 weeks after injection,and PVR was graded based on the criteria of Francine.The animals were sacrificed after 1 week,2,4 or 8 weeks for the preparation of retinal sections and liver extraction.Expression levels of IGFBP-6 mRNA in the rat retina and liver were assayed by real-time Q-PCR.The expression of IGFBP-6 protein in the rat serum and vitreous was detected by ELISA.The use of animals complied with the Regulations for the Administration of Affairs Concerning Experimental Animals by State Science and Technology Commission.Results Purified IGFBP-6 RNA was extracted from the liver and retina of Wistar rat and quantified by real-time Q-PCR.The expression level of IGFBP-6 mRNA in retina was (3.79± 1.33) × 10-4 in the PVR model rats,showing a significant decline in comparison with the control rats with a level of(8.32±2.96) × 10 4,4 weeks after injection (t =3.42,P＜0.01).The expression of IGFBP-6 mRNA in the 4th week was significantly lower than that of 1 week,2 or 8 weeks after the establishment of the PVR model(P＜0.05).No significant difference was found in the IGFBP-6 mRNA level in the liver between the PVR group and control group(27.60± 14.01 × 10 4 vs.25.01 ± 12.04 ×10-4,respectively),as well as among the different time points(P＞0.05).IGFBP-6 mRNA content in the retina was significantly reduced in grades 1,2 or 3 of the PVR groups compared with the control group(P＞0.05),but there was no significant difference among the different grades of PVR groups (P＞0.05).Concentrations of IGFBP-6 protein in grades 1,2 and 3 of the PVR model group were (221.00 ± 19.32),(229.63 ± 18.89) and (225.70 ± 26.71) μg/L,with a significant elevation in comparison with (173.25 ±21.11) μg/L of the control group (t =2.14,P＜0.05).However,there was no significant change among the different grades of PVR groups(t=1.24,1.46,P＞0.05).The concentrations of IGFBP-6 protein in the vitreous and serum were higher in PVR rat samples (vitreous:225.44±19.36 μg/L;serum:108.48 ± 15.78 μg/L) than in control rats (vitreous:173.25 ± 21.11 μg/L,serum:95.96 ±17.40 μg/L)(P＜0.05).Conclusions The concentrations of IGFBP-6 protein in the vitreous and serum increase in PVR rats.The results indicate that the increased IGFBP-6 in the vitreous might be a localized autocrine secretion of the eye.

Objective: To understand the relationship between chloroquine resistance and the virulence of Plasmodium berghei. Met hods: Dynamic changes of histopathologic features of livers, spleens, brains, hearts, lungs and kidneys of mice infected with the chloroquine-sensitive (N) and the chloroquine-resistant (RC) strains of P. berghei were compared. Results: In mice infected with the N strain, deposition of heavy hemoz oin in livers and spleens, congestive edema in lungs, and congestion and embolis m in the brain capillaries were observed. The histopathologic features revealed ac ute inflammatory reaction. In mice infected with the RC strain, histopathologic variations of livers and spleens were associated with changes of parasitemia. In terstitial pneumonia was displayed in lungs. There were chronic histopathologic changes of the organs in the mice infected with RC strain. Conclusion: The mice infected by the N strain with potent virulence die due to adher ence of the erythrocytes to microvascular endothelia and embolism of the microva scula, especially in their brain. Immune responses of the mice infected by the R C strain with poor virulence may be a delayed-type hypersensitive inflammation a ssociated with CD4+Th1 at an early stage of the infection, but may become anti body-dependent immune response assisted with CD4+Th2, which play a key role in elimination of the malaria parasites at later stage of the infection.

The higher medical education in China starts late and needs further exploration and improvement.While in Germany,it is elite education with a long history.Compared with China,in curriculum setting,Sociology,Medical health security,Humanities and Social Sciences and Organ system classification courses are more emphasized,and in terms of degree,it only has Doctor degree but with higher quality in Germany.Higher medical education in China will also take the path of the elite education.We can learn from the German medical education development experience and pay attention to solving the lack of the curriculum by supplementing social medicine and medical health security,increase the autonomy of the instructors in the training process,strengthen the medical students' social responsibility,and improve the quality of higher medical education in China.
