Objective To study the clinical features, effects of therapeutic regimen and prognosis of patents with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). Methods Clinical data of 27 MCL patients admitted in Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute&Hospital from January 2008 to December 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. Cox regression analysis was used to analyze influencing factors of prognosis of MCL. Results The median age was 68 years old for 27 patients, and the male-to-female ratio was 4.4∶1. Ann Arbor staging showed that 25 cases were stageⅢ-Ⅳ(92.6%), 8 cases were heptosplenomegaly (29.6%), 7 cases showed extranodal involvement (25.9%). ECOG scoring showed that 4 cases with scores of 2-4 (14.8%), 8 cases were 0-3 (29.6%), 14 cases were 4-5 (51.9%) and 5 cases were 6-11 (18.5%). The Ki-67 index≤30%was found in 9 cases (33.3%), and>30%was found in 18 cases (67.7%). Patients with B symptom was found in 10 (37.0%). The elevated lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) was found in 17 cases (63.0%). The increased Beta 2- microglobulin was found in 8 cases (29.6%). Seven patients were found with bone marrow involvement. The total effective rate (ORR) was 81.8%in group with R-CHOP method, and the ORR was 68.8%in group with CHOP method. Multivariate analysis showed that age, LDH and Ki-67 were independent factors influencing the prognosis of MCL (P<0.05). Conclusion Most patients with MCL are found in advanced stage. Patients with age>60 years, elevated LDH and Ki-67 index>30%are with poor prognosis.

Objective To investigate the changes of serum cardiac troponin I(cTnI)and brain natriuretic peptide(BNP)in heart failure of children with pneumonia and their relationship with heart function.Methods Thirty healthy children aged from 5 months to 3 years old were randomly selected with 17 male and 13 female(healthy group).Thirty children with severe heart failure aged from 3 months to 2 years old were selected at the same time with 21 male and 9 female(heart failure group).Thirty children with ordinary pneumonia aged from 3 months to 3 years old were also sampled with 16 male and 14 female(ordinary pneumonia group).The peripheral bloods of 2-3 mL of all children were taken.The BNP level were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and the cTnI level was determined by micro-particle enzyme immunoluminescent.Left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF) and left ventricular fractional shor-tening(LVFS)were detected by echocardiography.SPSS 11.0 software was used to analyze the data.Results The levels of cTnI [(0.389?0.030) ?g/L] and BNP [(0.572?0.090) ?g/L] of heart failure group increased significantly compared with healthy and ordinary pneumonia group,while their LVEF and LVFS decreased significantly(Pa

BACKGROUND:The number of elderly patients with hip fracture is huge, and this population mainly combines with a variety of internal diseases. The general condition was bad. Compared to total hip arthroplasty, bipolar hemiarthroplasty can shorten operation time, reduce the time of anesthesia and improve surgical safety, but the operation using which fixation mode is always controversial.
OBJECTIVE:To compare the safety and curative effects of bipolar hemiarthroplasty with cementless or cement femoral stem prosthesis in elderly patients with osteoporotic complex hip fracture.
METHODS:From June 2007 to June 2010, 198 elderly patients with osteoporotic hip fracture aged more than 75 years old, who were treated with bipolar hemiarthroplasty in the People’s Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, China, were enroled in this study. Al patients were divided into cementless group (n=69) and cement group (n=129) according to the type of prognosis. Osteoporosis was treated conventionaly in both groups after replacement. Operation time, intraoperative blood loss, incidence of postoperative hip pain, out of bed activity time post surgery, Harris scores of last folow-up and loosening rate of the prognosis were compared between the two groups.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:176 of above 198 cases were folowed up for 48 to 84 months, including 122 in the cement group and 54 in the cementless group. Operation time was longer in the cement group than in the cementless group, but out of bed time was earlier in the cement group than in the cementless group post surgery, and there were significant differences (P < 0.05). The incidences of loosening and hip pain were more in the cement group than in the cementless group post surgery (P < 0.05). No significant difference in intraoperative blood loss and Harris scores of last folow-up was detected between the two groups (P > 0.05). The incidences of loosening rate were 5% and 4% in the cement and cementless groups, respectively, which showed significant differences (P< 0.05). These results indicate that bipolar hemiarthroplasty with or without cement for osteoporotic hip fracture in the elderly can obtain good middle- and long-term effects. Bipolar hemiarthroplasty with cement can reduce the out of bed time, but operation time was longer, and incidences of hip pain and loosening were higher in cement prosthesis than in cementless prosthesis.

Objective To explore the clinical manifestations of hypermastigote detected from bronchoalveolar lavage fluid in children with mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP).Methods The clinical data from 18 cases (7 male cases,11 female cases;the age raged from 5 months to 13 years;13 case lived in rural cottage,5 cases lived in town building;the course ranged from 2 to 60 days) of MPP coinfected with hypermastigote were retrospectively analyzed,including the symptomatic and physical examination data, laboratory test, chest imaging features, bronchoscopic manifestation imaging,treatment and prognosis.The clinical characteristics and treatment of MPP coinfected with hypermastigote were analyzed.Results Clinical symptoms showed that 18 cases had cough, 14 cases had fever and 4 cases had asthma;laboratory blood routine test detected that 13 cases had increased leukocytes,5 cases with increased eosinophils;11 cases with increased C reactive protein and 8 cases with increased erythrocyte sedimentation rate.Eleven of 18 cases received immunological examination,which showed that 3 cases had increased IgG,2 cases with increased IgM,5 cases with increased IgA,and 11 cases with decreased ratio of CD4 and CD8;bronchoalveolar lavage fluid test showed that 1 case had increased eosinophils and hypermastigote were detected in 18 cases.High density spotty shadow were seen in chest imaging.Mucosal congestion, attached with white sputamentum, longitudinal folds, floc floating and sputum bolt obstructing within the lumen were seen under the bronchoscopy.The macrolides antibiotics combined with metronidazole (5 cases received metronidazole lung lavage) were effective.Conclusions Hypermastigote is a new type pathogen isolated from the lower respiratory tract in Liaocheng.For patients with MPP who have unsatisfactory response, hypermastigote should be taken into account and combined with metronidazole in therapy for better effect.

Objective:To investigate Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP) infected by Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) in children of different age and gender admitted to the Pediatric and Respiratory Departments of 31 public hospitals in different regions of Shandong province in autumn and winter, and to further analyze the epidemiological characteristics of MPP in children.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted to collect and summarize basic information, epidemiological characteristics of children with MPP, laboratory and etiological test results of hospitalized from 31 public hospitals in Shandong Province from September 1, 2021 to December 15, 2021 through questionnaire issuance.The differences between groups were compared by the χ2 test. Results:Among 39 970 children hospitalized in 31 hospitals from September 1, 2021 to December 15, 2021, 17 613 were diagnosed with MPP, with a prevalence rate of 44.07%.There were more children diagnosed with MPP in Eastern Shandong than those in other regions.Serological tests were the main method of confirming the disease (16 730 cases, 76.06%). The combined infections in MPP patients were primarily caused by the influenza B virus and Streptococcus pneumoniae.A total of 33.03% (5 817/17 613 cases)of children with MPP underwent bronchoscopy.The main indication was atelectasis, and mucosal erosion/ulcers were found in most of the children.The main complication of MPP was pleural atelectasis (23.47%, 4 133/17 613 cases). Severe intrapulmonary and extrapulmonary complications also occurred in some patients, including necrotizing pneumonia (0.53%, 94/17 613 cases), pulmonary embolism (0.16%, 29/17 613 cases) etc. Conclusions:The prevalence of MPP in children in Shandong province is high in autumn and winter.It is necessary to pay attention to the clinical examination indicators of hospitalized children with MPP, actively give treatment to children with MPP, prevent the occurrence of complications, and promote the physical recovery of children.

OBJECTIVETo identify protein markers for the early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer by a comparative proteomic method.

METHODSComparative analysis on the pancreatic peripheral blood protein profiling from 20 pancreatic cancer patients, 10 chronic pancreatitis patients and 20 cancer-free controls from May 2007 to September 2008 was carried out by two-dimensional fluorescence electrophoresis (2D-DIGE). Differentially expressed proteins were identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS). The significance difference proteins were confirmed by Western-blot.

RESULTSA differentially expressed proteins: complement 3 (C3) was identified. The gray level of C3 in pancreatic cancer tissue, chronic pancreatitis, and normal control group were 1.63 ± 0.28, 0.65 ± 0.13 (t = 11.81, P = 0.00) and 0.88 ± 0.19 (t = 9.93, P = 0.00), respectively. C3 was high expression in pancreatic cancer group compared with normal control group. The expression of C3 was higher in pancreatic cancer group than in chronic pancreatitis group. The high expression of C3 in pancreatic carcinoma was confirmed by Western blot.

CONCLUSIONS2D-DIGE and MALDI-TOF-MS technology is a quick, easy and practical method to screen for specific biomarkers in serum of patients with pancreatic carcinoma. The identified protein C3 in this study may be as specific serum biomarkers of pancreatic carcinoma.

OBJECTIVETo investigate whether multiple coatings can improve the bond durability of one-step self-etching adhesive to primary dentin.

METHODSTwelve caries-free human primary molars were randomly divided into 2 groups. In group 1, each tooth was hemisected into 2 halves. One half was assigned to the control subgroup 1, which was bonded with a commercially available one-step self-etching adhesive according to the manufacturer's instructions; the other half was assigned to experimental subgroup 1, in which the adhesive was applied three times before light curing. In group 2, one split half tooth was bonded with a commercially available one-step self-etching adhesive according to the manufacturer's instructions; for the other half, three layers of adhesive were applied with each successive layer of light curing. Specimens were stored in 0.9% NaCl containing 0.02% sodium azide at 37℃ for 18 months and then were subjected to microtensile bond strength test and the fracture mode analysis.

RESULTSWhen the adhesive was applied three times before light curing, the bond strength of the experimental subgroup 1 was significantly higher than that of the control subgroup 1 (47.46∓13.91 vs. 38.12∓11.21 MPa, P<0.05). When using the technique of applying multiple layers of adhesive with each successive layer of light curing, no difference was observed in bond strength between the control subgroup and the experimental subgroup (39.40±8.87 vs. 40.87±9.33 MPa, P>0.05).

CONCLUSIONMultiple coatings can improve the bond durability of one-step self-etching adhesive to primary dentin when using the technique of light-curing after applying 3 layers of adhesive.

To make clear of the absorbed components of Tianzhusan (TZS) and its possible mechanism in preventing vascular dementia (VD), the rats' models of VD were prepared by a permanent ligation of the bilateral common carotid arteries. After 60 days, rats were administrated with TZS for 0.1 g x kg(-1), and the volume is 0.02 mL x g(-1). After 3 days, the medicated serum was prepared and detected by UPLC, and then we predicted the possible chemical structure of the absorbed components of TZS. According to the absorbed components, the potential targets of TZS were found by ligand profiling of Discovery Studio 3.5. All of these target genes were submitted to DAVID onine for gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA). The 5 absorbed components of TZS have been predicted, and four of them have been identified as parishin B, parishin C, parishin, pennogenin-3-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosy-(1-->2)-beta-D-glucoside. Through reverse finding targets, we got 861 pharmacophore models and 9 pathways from KEGG, BIOCARTA after document verification. These results showed that the efficacy mechanism of TZS on VD perhaps were be related with these absorbed components and pathways. If the traditional herbs could be proved effective by efficacy tests, the serum pharmacochemistry, computer-aided drug design, system biology and other technologies can be used in the next experiments, which will be beneficial to fast discovery of material basis and mechanisms of traditional medicine coming form ethnic minorities.
