1.Study on the safety of influenza vaccination
International Journal of Pediatrics 2011;38(4):370-373
Seasonal influenza is a common respiratory infectious disease with high morbidity and strong infectivity, and it is harmful to people. Influenza vaccination is an effective measure to prevent influenza and reduce the spread of the influenza. People who are in great risk of influenza or tend to have adverse reactions should be considered as a special population, including the young child less than 2 years, the men or women older than 65 years, children with egg allergy and pregnant women. The attitudes about the safety and efficacy of influenza vaccine in special populations should be changed following the improvement of the influenza vaccine production and the deeply research. This paper reviewed the production of common flu vaccines and the safety of influenza vaccination in special populations.
2.Progress of fructose-1, 6-bisphosphatase deficiency
International Journal of Pediatrics 2017;44(8):535-538
Fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase(FBPase) deficiency is a rare inherited metabolic disease,which is an autosomal recessive metabolic disorder.Affected patients usually present with metabolic crisis including severe hypoglycemia and metabolic acidosis.Each attack occurred with a similar sequence.The triggering factors are removed and then clinical status is improved dramatically.As patients are usually symptomless in the plateau stage,it is often misdiagnosed.Metabolite assay in blood and urine is very useful for the diagnosis of FBPase deficiency.FBPase is a key enzyme in gluconeogenesis.Deficiency of FBPase impairs the formation of glucose from all precursors.FBP1 gene mutation contributes to the disease.More than 30 mutation types have been reported.There is no specific treatment.Early diagnosis and appropriate life-style can prevent repetitive metabolic derangements,improving life quality of these children and ensuring successful pregnancy.
3.Efficacy comparison of menopausal irritability between acupuncture and medication: a randomized controlled trial.
Chinese Acupuncture & Moxibustion 2014;34(5):455-458
OBJECTIVETo observe the differences in the clinical efficacy on menopausal irritability between acupuncture and medication.
METHODSSixty cases of menopausal irritability were randomized into an acupuncture group (31 cases) and a medication group (29 cases). In the acupuncture group, the warming needling manipulation was applied at the key acupoints such as Hegu (LI 4) and Taichong (LR 3), once a day, 10 treatments made one session. Totally, 2 sessions were required. In the medication group, 2.5 mg diazepam tablets were prescribed, three times a day, for 23 days totally. The clinical efficacy, the modified Kupperman score and self-rated health measurement scale (SRHMS) were compared before and after treatment in the two groups. RESULTS The total effective rate was 87. 1% (27/31) in the acupuncture group and 82.8% (24/29) in the medication group. The difference in the clinical efficacy was not significant between the two groups (P > 0.05). The modified Kupperman score and SRHMS score were both reduced obviously after treatment in the two groups, indicating the significant difference (all P < 0.05). The reduction of two scores in the acupuncture group was more obvious than those in the medication group (Kupperman: 15.23 +/- 6.19 vs 18.45 +/- 5.37; SRHMS: 116.29 +/- 38.24 vs 140.34 +/- 42.15, both P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONThe acupuncture and medication are effective in the treatment of menopausal irritability, but the efficacy of warming needling manipulation is better than that of diazepam tablets.

4.The application of healthcare integration model in patients after PCI
Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing 2014;30(4):29-31
Objective To investigate the application effect of the health care integration mode after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of patients in cardiology department.Methods 100 patients (the experimental group) were randomly selected from 200 patients to implement integrated health service management model,usual care service mode was given to the other 100 patients (the control group).After 12 months,the incidence of haemorrhage and hematoma,the average length of hospital stay,the patients' quality of life,patients' satisfaction degree in two groups of patients were compared.Results Compared with the control group,the incidence of postoperative haemorrhage and hematoma decreased,the average length of stay shortened,the patients' quality of life and satisfaction degree significantly improved after PCI in the experimental group.Conclusions Compared with ordinary care model,health integration model can reduce the incidence of haemorrhage and hematoma in patients after PCI,alleviate the suffering of patients; shorten the average length of stay and reduce the economic and emotional burden of patients; improve the patients' quality of life and satisfaction degree,deepening nursing work connotation,and promote the development of nursing.
5.Effects of Porphyromonas gingivalis on focal adhesive components paxillin and FAK of gingival epithelial cells
Journal of Practical Stomatology 2010;26(1):10-14
Objectives: To explore the destructive mechanism of P.gingivalis on periodontium and to better understand the pathogenic effects of P.gingivalis fimbriae. Methods:Western blotting was used to detect the degradation effects of P.gingivalis ATCC 33277 and its fimA-deficient mutant on focal adhesion components paxillin and focal adhesion kinase (FAK) of Hela cells and immortalized gingival epithelial cells (IHGE cells). Results:P.gingivalis ATCC 33277 wild strain and its fimA-deficient mutant induced degradation of paxillin and FAK both in Hela cells and in IHGE cells. fimA-deficient mutant had a remarkable weaker degradation ability than the wild strain. In IHGE cells, paxillin and FAK were degraded in a time-and MOI-dependent manner. Conclusion:P.gingivalis fimbriae-mediated adhesion and invasion to epithelial cells may promote the degradation of focal adhesion components. IHGE cells may be more suitable for the study of periodontal pathogens than Hela cells.

8.Cytokines and their relationship to the symptoms and outcome of cancer
Journal of International Oncology 2010;37(3):188-190
Cytokines can have either pro-or anti-inflammatory activity and immunosuppressive activity,depending on the microenvironment.Tumors contain immune cells and a network of pro-and anti-inflammatory cytokines,which collaborate in the development and progression of cancer.Cytokine might prove to be prognostic.The systemic effects of pro-inflammatory cytokines are associated with fatigue,depression,cognitive impairment,anorexia,cachexia,pain,toxicity of treatment and resistance to treatment,which can affect quality of life.

Journal of Practical Stomatology 1995;0(04):-
Objective:To study the effects of green-tea polyphenol, (epigallocatechin gallate,EGCg) on the cellular inflammatory responses of gingival epithelial cells. In order to find out a safe and efficient inflammation-inhibitor for periodontitis prevention and treatment. Methods:A model of cellular inflammatory responses of gingival epithelial cells stimulated by Porphyromonas gingivalis vesicles in vitro was established. The effects of EGCg on PGE2 production of gingival epithelial cells was detected by ELISA. Further more, the effects of EGCg on COX (cyclooxygenase)-2 and MMP (matrix metalloproteinase)-3 mRNA expression were determined by Real-time RT-PCR. Results:EGCg dose-dependently inhibited PGE2 production and COX-2, MMP-3 mRNA expressions. Conclusion:EGCg has inhibitory effects on cellular inflammatory responses of gingival epithelial cells and possesses the potentiality to be a periodontal inflammation-inhibitor.
10.Detection of anti-F(ab')_2 antibody in patients with SLE and evaluation of its clinical significance
Chinese Journal of Immunology 1985;0(03):-
Anti-F(ab')_2 and anti-dsDNA-F(ab'):fragment(idiotype)Were prepared from digested normal human IgG and anti-dsDNA antibody with pepsin.Anti-F(ab')_2 antibody was determined by ELISA in 46 patients with SLE.A significant correlation between titers of anti-dsDNA-F(ab')_2 and anti-F(ab'):antibodies was observed.Results show high levels of anti-F(ab')_2 and low levels of anti-dsDNA antibodies in patients with remisson SLE activity.These findings suggest that the general IgG-F(ab')_2 antibodies and the anti-dsDNA-F(ab')_2 idiotypes in SLE sera may express some common structural epitopes.The measurement of anti-F(ab')_2 antibody levels may prove usefuladditional parameters assessing the clinical status.
