Objective To reproduce a rabbit model of alginate immune pneumonia, and to study the pathogenic role of alginate on lung tissue. Methods Rabbits of group A, being challenged by saline, served as the control group. Rabbits of group B and C were immunized with seaweed alginate and bacterial alginate respectively. Body temperature,peripheral blood cells and the serum level of circulating immune complex (CIC) were measured after the challenge. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) specimens were incubated and bacterial colonies were counted. The cell number and differential count of BALF were made. The pathological changes of the lung tissue were observed under microscopy. Results In both seaweed alginate and bacterial alginate groups, the peripheral blood cell count and the number of bacterial colonies in BALF were similar to that of the saline group. However, the serum CIC levels and the cell count of BALF were increased significantly after the challenge. Under light microscopy, lymphocyte infiltration and lymphoid follicle formation around the bronchiolus were found in all alginate immunized groups, and there was also narrowing of bronchioli. Conclusion Both seaweed alginate and bacterial alginate could be used to establish the model of alginate immune pneumonia in rabbits. Alginate can cause inflammatory reaction and pathological changes in the rabbit lung, manifesting mainly peribronchilar lymphocytic infiltration and lymphoid follicle formation around the bronchioli.

Posterior capsular opacification (PCO) is the most common complication that leads to loss of vision after cataract surgery.Neodymium doped:Yttrium-Aluminum-Garnet (Nd:Yag) laser capsulotomy is a common treatment for PCO, but still associated with several complications.In the past decades, the prevention and treatment of PCO have always been a hot spot of research in ophthalmology.This review will address the advances in the prevention and treatment of PCO in the aspects of surgical techniques and types of intraocular lens (IOL).

Objective:To detect the pain status and the pain management of home-based advanced cancer patients, and to investigate the key factors impacting the satisfaction on pain management.Methods:Totally the data of 138 cases from the hospice department in the duration from Jan. 2019 to Jun. 2019 were collected and analyzed by χ2 test with SPSS 23.0. Results:109 cases in 138 cases received analgesics treatment before, 54.13% of these participants expressed satisfaction with the effect of their pain management, and 45.87% showed unsatisfied on their pain management. Cancer clinical stage and PMI (pain management index) were both detected to be the significant factors for satisfaction of pain management ( P<0.05, P=0.029; P<0.01, P=0.001) . Conclusions:Cancer clinical stage and PMI are found to be related to the satisfaction for pain management. The percentage of patients who use opioids increased. while there was still a part of patients suffering from inadequacy of pain management. The pain management for home-based advanced patients needs to be paid more attention by medical staff.

Objective To investigate the role of erythrocyte complement receptor type 1 (CR1) in the pathogenesis of chronic urticaria.Methods Venous blood samples were collected from 59 patients with chronic urticaria (including 14 cases of dermatographism and 45 chronic idiopathic urticaria) and 29 healthy human controls.Flow cytometry was carried out to quantify the expression level of CR1,and double-antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to determine the serum level of immunoglobulin E (IgE),complement C3,C4 and 50％ complement hemolytic activity (CH50).Differences in these parameters were analyzed by one-way ANOVA and independent samples t-test,and correlation between these paramenters by Pearson correlation analysis.Results The expression level (expressed as mean fluorescence intensity per 10 000 erythrocytes) of CR1 was significantly higher in patients with dermatographism and chronic idiopathic urticaria than in the healthy controls (35.06 ± 2.06 and 29.17 ± 1.53 vs.20.46 ± 2.57,t =4.20 and 3.33,both P ＜ 0.05),while no statistical difference was observed between the patients with dermatographism and chronic idiopathic urticaria (P ＞ 0.05).Increased total serum IgE levels were observed in patients with dermatographism and chronic idiopathic urticaria compared with the healthy controls ((769.89 ± 123.0) μg/L and (340.09 ± 29.74) μg/L vs.(107.63 ± 88.79) μg/L,t =5.58,5.85,both P ＜ 0.05),and in patients with dermatographism compared with those with chronic idiopathic urticaria (t =3.49,P ＜ 0.05).For patients with chronic urticaria,there was a statistical difference in the expression level of CR1 between individuals (n=22) with total serum IgE levels ranging from 0 to 240 μg/L and those (n =17) higher than 500 μg/L (24.45 ± 10.83 vs.33.09 ± 11.86,t =3.33,P＜ 0.05).The total serum IgE levels were positively correlated with the level of CR1 (r =0.27,P ＜ 0.05),but uncorrelated with that of complement C3 (r =0.16,P ＞ 0.05) or C4 (r =-0.08,P＞ 0.05).The level of complement C3 was positively correlated with that of C4 (r =0.54,P ＜ 0.01).One-way ANOVA revealed no significant difference in the serum levels of complement C3,C4,or CH50 between the patients with dermatographism,patients with chronic idiopathic urticaria and healthy controls (all P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion CR1 is abnormally expressed in patients with chronic urticaria.

Objective To explotr clinical application of impulse oscillation system(IOS)determining bronchodilator reversibility test and the impact of age factor on positive values of bronchoddilator reversibility test in children.Methods Two hundred and fifteen patients during asthma attack were recruited randomly for this study.They were divided into three groups according to their age(4-7 year-old group,8-11 year-old group and 12-16 year-old group).Mensurated MEFV and IOS lung function.Carried on the bronchial dilation test with the results.Forced expiratory volume in first second(FEV1),the sensitivity and specificity of IOS parameters,total respiratory impedance(Zrs),respiratory resistance at 5 Hz(R5)and 20 Hz(R20),reactance at 5 Hz(X5)and resonant frequency(Fres)for diagnosing asthma at different improvement levels after inhalation of bronchedilator were calculated respectively through using FEV1 as a "sold standard"in the different age groups.Results After inhalation of bronchodilator,Fres,Zrs,R5,X5 and R20 of IOS were improved significantly.The improvement of X5 was the most obvious,however the decline of R20 was the lowest.The improving rate of Fres,Zrs,R5 had very significant difference in the three age groups(P＜0.01).It displayed that the age factor was very important impact factor on the improving rate of Fres,Zrs,R5,however the improving rate of X5 was on difference in the three age groups(P＞0.05).In the three age groups,there were significantly positive correlations between X5,R5,Zrs and FEV1(P＜0.01).there wash't correlations between R20 and FEV1 in the 4-7 year-old group and the 12-16 year-old group(P＞0.05).Furthermore,when an increase of FEV1 equaling to or greater than 15% was used as reference for positive bronchial reversibility,the improve rate of Fres,Zrs,R5,and X5 equaled to or greater than 13%,23%,17%,31%,respectively in 4-7 year-old group,18%,26%,25%,32%,respectively in 8-11 year-old group,25%,28%,28%,36%,respectively in 12-16 year-old group. Conclusions IOS can be used to assess bronchodilator reversibility test in children,and age factors should be paid attention.

Objective To study the antidepressant effect of total timosaponin(TT)and its mechanism.Methods The antidepressant effect of TT was examined by mice forced swimming test(FST),learned helplessness(LH)experiment,chronic mild stress(CMS)model,yohimbine induced lethality test and 5-HTP induced head-twitches test.Results TT(25 or 50 mg?kg-1,ig,qd?14 d)markedly shortened the immobility time in the FST,but didn't affect the autonomic activity.TT(12.5,25 or 50 mg?kg-1,ig,qd?14 d)significantly decreased the number of escape deficits in the LH mice.TT(25 or 50 mg?kg-1,ig,qd?21 d)markedly enhanced the locomotor activity and increased consumption of sucrose solution in CMS mice.TT(50 mg?kg-1,ig,qd?14 d)enhanced the mortality of mice after administration of yohimbine for 4 h,and distinctly increased the head-twitch number in the 5-HTP induced head-twitches test.Conclusion TT has antidepressant effects in various depression mouse models.Its mechanism may be related to the reinforcement of NE and 5-HT nerves system.

Objective To studythe efficacy of levosimendan in treating refractory heart failure complicating severe renal in sufficiency.Methods Sixty-seven cases of refractory heart failure complicating severe renal insufficiency in the internal medicine department of our hospital were randomly divided into the levosimendan treatment group(L group,n=33)and dopamine treatment group(D group,n=34).The changes of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide(NT-pro-BNP),left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF)and glomerular filtration rate(GFR)before treatment and on 1,3,7,30 d after treatment were compared between the two groups and analyzed.Results Before the treatment,there were no statistically significant differences in the baseline indicators between the two groups(P＞0.05).The group L:the NT-pro-BNP level on 1,3,7 d after treatment was decreased significantly(P＜ 0.05),LVEF on 3,7 d was significantly increased compared with th baseline(P＜0.05)and GFR on 1,3,7,30 d was significantly increased compared with the baseline(P＜0.05).The group D:the NT-pro-BNP level on 7 d of treatment was significantly decreased(P＜0.05),LVEF on 7 d of treatment was significantly increased compared with the baseline(P＜0.05),and no statistically significant changes were observed in GFR on 1,3,7,30 d(P＞0.05).After treatment,NT-pro-BNP,LVEF and GFR significant level values in the group L were better than those in the group D.Conclusion Levosimendan is superior to dopamine in improving heart and renal function for the patients with refractory heart failure complicating severe renal insufficiency.
