Objective To compare and analyze differences in clinical characteristics, auxiliary examination and im?munotherapy between children with anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate(NMDA) receptor encephalitis and adults. Methods Clinical data was retrospectively collected from 34 cases anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis. All people were divided into the child group and the adult according to the age of onset and the inpatient department. Score of Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) before and after treatment and follow-up period (6 months~24 months) were compared to estimate the neurologi?cal outcomes. Results Data from 34 patients including 19 children and 15 adults was analyzed. Hypoventilation, epilep?sy and status epilepticus were more common in the adult group than in the child. The positive rate of EEG delta brush was higher in child group than in adult group. Two women were complicated by suspicious ovarian teratoma. Intravenous immune globulin was used commonly in the child group, while the plasma exchange or immunosuppressant used common?ly in the adult group. Time of onset to hospital admission and final diagnosis were shorter in the child group than in the adult. Patients requiring ICU were fewer in the child group than in the adult. The scores of mRS were significantly lower in the child group than in the adult at hospital discharge (P<0.05). Conclusion Clinical characteristics is more compli?cated in adults with anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis compared with children including a worse disease severity and a poorer short-term outcome.

Objective To analyze tissue vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1 (VEGFR-1)and VEGFR-2 and their soluble form (sVEFGR-1 and sVEGFR-2) in the plasma in patients with preeclampsia,and to explore its clinical significance.Methods sVEGFR-1 and sVEGFR-2 expressions in plasma of normal pregnancy women and preeclampsia patients were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbnent assay (ELISA) ; VEGFR-1,VEGFR-2,sVEGFR-1 and sVEGFR-2 mRNA expressions of normal pregnancy women and preeclampsia patients in placenta were detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).Results ELISA results showed that the level of sVEGFR-1 in plasma of normal control group before and after delivery was (12.33 ± 1.52) ng/ml and (4.55 ± 0.31) ng/ml,respectively,while that of preeclampsia group was (77.25 ± 9.47) ng/ml and (8.13 ± 0.74) ng/ml,respectively; the differences between before and after delivery in the two groups were of statistical significance.The level of sVEGFR 2 in plasma of normal control group before and after delivery was (8.74 ± 1.24) ng/ml and (6.43± 0.55) ng/ml,respectively,while that of preeclampsia group was (5.69 ± 0.75) ng/ml and (4.96 ±0.67) ng/ml,respectively.RT-PCR results were consistent with ELISA results.Conclusions Rapid decrease of plasma sVEGFR-1 and continuously low-level expression of plasma sVEGFR-2 indicated that VEGFR-1 might be closely related to preeclampsia,and decrease of plasma sVEGFR-2 in preeclampsia women might be taken as a marker of endothelial cell function disorder.

Objective To study the effect of combining recombinet interferon α -2b gel and loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) to treat cervical intraepithehal neoplasia (CIN). Methods Prospective, randomly and control study was progressed in 80 patients with CIN Ⅱ-Ⅲ. Before carrying out LEEP, all women were performed high-risk HPV DNA detection by the method of HC2. Among them, forty women were. assigned to be the study group, in which the patients were added to use recombinet interferon α -2b gel for three courses of treatment before and after LEEP, the other forty women who carried out LEEP simply were assigned to be the control group. All patients were examined by hquid-based thinprep cytology test (TCT) and colposcopic site-specific biopsies to doubtful focus of infection in the 3rd, 6th, 9th and 12th month after treatment, and judged the effect by using HC2 in the 6th and 12th month after treatment. Results Eighty patients were not detected residue and recidivafion of CIN diagnosed by coiposcopic site-specific biopsies to doubtful focus of infection. In the study group, 3 women were abnormal detected by TCT, 37 women were negative detected by HC2, the negative rate was 92.5% when LEEP ended 6 months. The cure rate was 100.0% when LEEP ended 12 months. In the control group, 21 women were abnormal detected by TCT, 19 women were negative detected by HC2, the negative rate was 47.5% when LEEP ended 6 months, 8 women were negative detected by TCT, 25 women were negative detected by HC2, the cure rate was 62.5% when LEEP ended 12 months.In the 6th and 12th month after LEEP, the difference was distinguished in the cure rate between two groups. Conclusions There is double interrupted effects by combining recombinets interferon α -2b gel and LEEP to treat CIN. It can raise the one-time cure rate of the patients with CIN.

Objective To explore the long-term efficacy of botulinum toxin type A injections on facial beauty and its long-term safety.Methods A total of 33 beauty-seekers with botulinum toxin type A treatment for more than five years were reviewed as observation group,using digital muscle palpation meter (Myoton PRO) for the determination of the orbicularis oculi muscle and masseter muscle tension (F),the muscle characteristic parameters,such as muscle hardness (S) using a homemade facial questionnaire test for satisfactory rate of beauty from both beauty-seekers and physicians.At sametime,33 normal adults that never accepted botulinum toxin injection with matched age and gender were collected as control group.The same-sex indicators were dtermined and compared with using statistic analysis t test.Results The pairwised parameters of the same sex and site were comparied between the two groups;average F and S values in the observation group were lower than those of the control group,but no statistically significant difference were observed between the two groups (P＞0.05);in the observation group,average appearance age was 7.3 years younger than the control group,and the facial shape improved significantly.Conclusions Long-term and repeated application of botulinum toxin A is able to remove crow's feet and decrease the masseter and so the injection is safe with high satisfaction to beauty-seekers.

Objective: To investigate the cause of an incident of occupational contact dermatitis in a farm in Tianjin Prefecture, so as to provide insights into occupational safety. Methods: The disinfection process, use of disinfectants and individual protective measures in this farm were collected, and a field epidemiological investigation was conducted to collect the demographic characteristics, history of occupational contact, clinical symptoms, diagnosis and treatment data, and onset of disease among individuals with the same type of job. The cause of this incident was analyzed. Results: There were ten interns exposed to potassium hydrogen sulfate compounds simultaneously in this farm, and then, nine interns developed skin flushing across the body, and swelling and itching of the skin. Among these ten interns, five individuals were admitted to hospitals because of severe symptoms and were then clinically diagnosed as systemic contact dermatitis. All five individuals were cured following treatments. Epidemiological survey showed that all cases had a definite history of occupational contact with potassium hydrogen sulfate compounds but without use of any protective agents. In addition, there were thirty-five individuals with the same type of job in this farm that developed similar symptoms when they joined in the disinfection for the first time, and these individuals were self-cured following cessation to contact; however, recurrence of symptoms was found following contacts again. Conclusion This is a cluster of occupational contact dermatitis caused by exposure to potassium hydrogen sulfate compound.

ObjectiveTo explore the feasibility and efficacy of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy combined with mild hypothermi on severe craniocerebral injury (SCI).MethodsAll 80 SCI patients were randomly divided into therapeutic group (52 cases) and control group (28 cases). All patients received general synthesis treatment; while the hyperbaric oxygen combined with mild hypothermia treatment was added to the therapeutic group. Changes of Vm, Vs and PI of middle cerebral artery (MCA) in systolic stage were detected by transcranial-Doppler (TCD) before and after treatment. The plasma level of endothelin (ET) was also tested and prognosis of patients was analyzed.ResultsVm, Vs and PI of MCA in systolic stage improved obviously and ET reduced greatly in therapeutic group compared with those in the control group (P<0.01), and prognosis was also superior to control group.ConclusionHyperbaric oxygen combined with mild hypothermia can improve the consciousness state and prognosis of SCI patients as a result of the relaxation of the cerebral vascular spasm and the reduction of ET, which may contribute to the abatement of the cerebral ischemia and hypoxia.
