Objective To further investigate the pathohistology of chronic gastritis in children and the relationship between helicobacter pylori(Hp) infection and mucosal chronic inflammatory.Methods Gastric antrum biopsies were carried out from children who had chronic gastritis confirmed by gastroendoscopy during the past 3 years in our hospital.The results of pathohistological observation were analyzed by retrospectire method.Results One thousand six hundred cases of chronic gastritis were included,in which 1007 cases without Hp infection,593 with Hp infection.Among the patients without Hp infection,mild inflammatory were much more than mode-(rate) or severe inflammatory(86% vs 14%).Although,in patients with Hp infection,mild inflammatory were the most common presentation(63%),moderate and severe inflammatory were more predominant in patients with Hp infection.The degree of inflammatory was increased with the quantity of Hp infection.The ratio of lymphocytes,neutrophils and lymphoid follicles in gastric mucosa was much higher in Hp positive group than negative one(94%,40%,22% vs 60%,11%,5%,respectively),and the difference was significant in statistic analysis.Gastric mucosal atrophy was found more in Hp positive group(16.5%) than negative one(7%).The proportion of intestinal metaplasia in cases with Hp infection was 1.5% compared with 0.1% in these children.Conclusion The study shows that there is a close relationship between Hp and antrun chronic inflammation and mucosal atrophy.

Objective To establish an ultraviolet-irradiation damage model in cultured fibroblasts derived from human skin and to explore the potential protective effects and mechanisms of amyloid precursor protein 17-met peptide (APP17-mer peptide) on the oxidative damage and collagen metabolism in cultured fibroblasts after ultraviolet irradiation. Methods Human dermal fibroblast cultures were established by outgrowth from foreskin biopsies of a healthy donor and were irradiated by a single exposure to ultraviolet rays and cultured in a series of concentrations of APP17-mer peptide (0, 20, 40, 80 μmol/L).The activity of fibroblasts was detected by the assay of MTT. The intracellular ROS level was measured with a confocal microscope. The expression of MMP-1 mRNA was analyzed real-time quantitatively following RT-PCR. Results Primary cultures of human skin fibroblasts were established from human foreskin in DMEM supplemented with 10 % fetal bovine serum. UV irradiation depressed cellular activity and increased intracellular level of ROS (P<0.05). 40μmol/L and 80μmol/L APP17-mer peptide increased the cellular activity in both UV irradiated fibroblasts and unirradiated fibroblasts (P<0.05), however,20 μmol/L did not show such protective effects (P>0. 05). 40μmol/L APP17-mer peptide could depress the level of ROS in irradiated libroblasts. A single exposure of fibroblasts to UV irradiation resulted in 1.78 foldup-regulation of MMP-1 mRNA compared with unirradiated sample, 40μmol/L and 80μmol/L APP17-mer peptide decreased the expression of MMP-1 mRNA (P<0.05 and P<0.01, respectively).Conclusion APP17-mer peptide can enhance cellular activity under UV-induced oxidative stress and in-hibit collagen degradation in fibroblasts irradiated with ultraviolet rays. Inhibition of ROS production may be involved in the protective mechanism of APP17 peptide.

Objective To explore the three ultrasonic technologies of two -dimensional ultrasound(2D -US),ultrasonic elastography(UE) and contrast -enhanced ultrasound(CEUS) for the measurement error in breast cancer and the correlation with the expression of ER,PR,VEGF.Methods 50 patients with breast cancer were meas-ured by 2D -US,UE,CEUS preoperatively,and the pathological specimen were measured postoperatively.Then used the immunohistochemistry to detect the expression of ER,PR,VEGF in tumor,and analyzed the correlation with the measurement errors.Results The results of differences between 2D -US,UE,CEUS and pathology were respectively as follows:( -0.59 ±-0.34)cm,( -0.20 ±-0.14)cm,( -0.40 ±-0.31)cm,and the differences were statistically significant(F =20.497,P <0.001).The positive expression rate of ER and PR was high if the difference between UE and 2D -US was less than or equal to 0.44cm.And the positive expression rate of VEGF was low if the difference between CEUS and 2D -US was less than or equal to 0.19cm.Three ultrasonic technologies in the measurement of breast cancer were different,the trend of difference between UE and 2D -US was smaller if the ER and PR were positively expression,and the trend of difference between CEUS and 2D -US was bigger if the VEGF was positively expression.Conclusion There is correlation between different immunohistochemical expression of breast cancer with measurement error in three different ultrasonic imaging technologies.The results suggest that the molecular pathology difference of breast cancer can impact on ultrasonic imaging,which contributes to know the reason and regulation of measurement error in different ultrasonic imaging technology.

OBJECTIVETo observe the short-term clinical results of the adjacent segment degeneration after the implantation of Coflex system at the interspinous space of adjacent segment to lumbar fusion.

METHODSFifty patients with grade III disc (Thompson MRI classification) of adjacent segment to lumbar fusion were included and divided alternately into two groups according to the order of hospitalization from January to November 2009. Coflex system was implanted at the interspinous space of adjacent segment to lumbar fusion in 25 patients as Coflex group, the other 25 patients did not have any surgical treatment were as control group. The followed up time was 2 years. Visual analogue scale (VAS) score of low back pain, changes of disc height and motion range of adjacent segment to lumbar fusion on X-ray imaging were evaluated by independent sample t-test or paired samples t-test.

RESULTSThere were 22 patients in Coflex group and 21 patients in control group were followed up 2 years post-operation. The difference of VAS score between two groups was no significance (P > 0.05). In Coflex group, the change of postoperative disc height was no significance (P > 0.05), but the motion range was significantly reduced to 47% of the preoperative value (t = 7.99, P < 0.05). In control group, the postoperative disc height decreased slightly, without significant difference to the preoperative value (P > 0.05). Between the two groups, no differences of the disc height and motion range were found before operation, but the differences of the disc height changes (t = 6.7, P < 0.05) and motion rang (t = -14.5, P < 0.05) were significant in 2 years post-operation. No complications such as Coflex system loosen, immigration and spinal process fracture were occurred.

CONCLUSIONSCoflex system can obviously limit the motion range and maintain the disc space height of adjacent segment to lumbar fusion, and prevent its degeneration in some degree.

AIM: To explore and analyze the image features, diagnosis and treatment of the central serous chorioretinopathy ( CSCR) fundus.
METHODS:From May 2008 to May 2014, 97 cases of 121 eyes with central serous chorioretinopathy were treated in in our hospital. The imaging features were compared and analyzed through different methods.
RESULTS:Sixty-one cases (61 eyes) were ≤45 years, including 13 case with disease in both eyes, single stove leak accounted for 48. 6%, multifocal leakage (25. 7%), atypical leakage accounted for 25. 7%. Thirty-six cases (47 eyes) were >45 years, 11 cases with disease in both eyes, single focal leakage ( 8. 5%), multifocal leakage (48. 9%), atypical leakage accounted for 42. 6%. FFA results showed acute hairstyle at the beginning of 89 eyes, chronic deferment type 32 eyes. OCT examination showed that the main features were neuroepithelial detachment, as well as the change of the retinal pigment epithelium ( RPE) layer, which was divided into RPE layer detachment 93 eyes, accounting for 76. 9%, rough and RPE little ridges in 28 cases, accounting for 23. 1%. The average thickness of macular center concave on the cortex of microns was 137. 87 ± 19. 21μm, and there was no significant difference conpared with normal ( 137. 32 ±4.98μm) microns (t=0. 30, P>0. 05). The closer leakage area to macular fovea, the worse of eyesight. .
CONCLUSION: Different imaging examination on central serous chorioretinopathy can show different features. For clinical diagnosis and treatment it had different and complementary roles, but were given significant help for diseases treatment.

Objective: To study the biocompatibility of CFR/PEEK composite in bone tissue after implanted in lumbar intervertebral space and to evaluate its role in the interbody fusion compared to the allograft bone. Methods: Thirteen beagles were chosen among which 7 were implanted with the disk-like CFR/PEEK composite in the lumbar intervertebral space and the other 6 were implanted with allograft bone. X-ray, QCT and histological examination were employed at 6, 12 and 24 months postoperatively. Results: The X-ray results of fusion segment were in conformity with the QCT's as well as that of histological results. All animals obtained a complete fusion at 24 months. Histological examination revealed that the anterior soft tissue to the implant exhibited a nonspecific foreign body reaction with connective tissue embed the biomaterials. Carbon fragment were seen in the surrounding tissue and some of the debric were phagocytosed by foreign body giant cell. Histological examination of bone and material revealed that new bone grew along the hole of CFR/PEEK implant. Conclusion: CFR/PEEK has an excellent biocompatibility to bone tissue.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of influenza split vaccine.

METHODSAccording to the criteria of No.2002SL0043, instruction of application for new drug in clinical trial issued by the State Food and Drug Administration, 876 healthy persons were divided at random into vaccine group and control group. The trial was performed with the double blind method. Local and systemic adverse reactions were observed within 3 days after the vaccine group subjects were vaccinated. The antibody response to vaccines was detected with hemagglutination inhibition (HI) test. Numbers of seroconversions and HI titers greater than or equal to 40, as well as the mean geometric titer increase in HI were analyzed.

RESULTSThere was no significant difference in local and systemic adverse reaction between vaccine and control groups. Meanwhile there was also no significant difference in seroconversions and protective level between two groups. However, there was obvious difference in mean geometric titer increase of antibody against H1N1 virus, while there was no significant difference in that of antibodies to H3N2 and type B viruses.

CONCLUSIONSThe safety and immunogenicity of both vaccines are excellent.

OBJECTIVETo understand mental health status of the students and adults in the earthquake disaster areas, as to providing guidance on intervention for post-disaster psychological crisis.

METHODSThe Self-Reporting Questionnaire (SRQ-20), an appendix of The Ministry of Health of "emergency psychological crisis intervention guiding principles", was used among 1222 victims in Wenchuan earthquake, Sichuan province. This questionnaire survey was conducted in 729 students and 493 adult victims in a randomized method. Of the 734 questionnaires distributed and received in students, 729 were validly responded with efficiency rate of 99.32%; while for adults, 496 questionnaires distributed, 496 received, 493 were valid with efficiency rate of 99.39%.

RESULTS(1) In students victims, 65% responded that they did feel "uneasy, nervous or worried", followed by "easy to be scared", "feel unhappy", "easy fatigue" and "hard to make a decision". For adult victims, 80.5% replied that they felt "uneasy, nervous or worried", followed by "feel unhappy", "easy fatigue", "difficult sleeping", "easy to be scared". (2) The average of the SRQ score of student victims was 6.58 +/- 3.99, and 6.07 +/- 4.02 for males, 7.03 +/- 3.91 for females. The average of the SRQ score of student victims was 7.36 +/- 3.98, male 6.68 +/- 3.82, female 7.99 +/- 4.03. The significant differences (t(women) = 2.985, P < 0.01; t(total) = 3.332, P < 0.01) was observed in women and the total group of students and adults. (3) The SRQ positive screening rate of students group was 46.50%, the adult group was 52.33%, SRQ >or= 7 points and SRQ < 7 sub-group of students and adults of the total score there were significant differences (t(1) = 39.771, P < 0.01; t(2) = 31.961, P < 0.01). SRQ >or= 7 sub-group of students and adult women in between there was a significant difference (t = 23.641, P < 0.01), SRQ < 7 sub-group of students and adults in general and women there were significant differences (t(1) = 3.092, P < 0.01; t(2) = 2.911, P < 0.01). (4) SRQ scores with gender and age had had a positive relation (r(SRQ total-sex) = 0.118, P = 0.000; r(SRQ total-age) = 0.103, P = 0.000).

CONCLUSIONThe emotional suffering symptoms of students victims and adult victims should be "nervous, unhappy, vulnerable on issues such as fatigue", the adult group had a higher symptom rate than the group of students, the mental health was more serious than that of students, as influenced by some factors including age and gender. Students, being a special population group should be paid more attention to focusing a designated behavior intervention, as a planned manner of intervention.

OBJECTIVETo recommend the successive "Z" incision and skin flaps as a method for repairing the wound in penile lengthening procedures.

METHODSWe performed penile lengthening surgery by successive "Z" incision for 5 patients complaining of short penis, who ranged in age from 16 to 34 years (22.4 +/- 7.2), and 3 of whom had a history of urethroplasty, circumcision and penile reconstruction, respectively. The superficial suspensory ligament and part of the deep suspensory ligament of the penis were exposed and severed to release the penis, and the "Z" skin flaps sutured in a tensionless state. Drainage was necessitated by exudation and the catheter removed in 24-48 hours. The penis was wrapped up by an elastic bandage, and the stitches taken out 8-10 days after the operation.

RESULTSWe achieved a mean erectile length of 8.4 cm (range 7.8-9.2 cm) after the operation, as compared with 4. 8 cm (range 4.0-5.8 cm) before the surgery. Two students of the patients obviously became active and confident. No penile contraction was noted during the 12-48 months follow-up, and both the patients and their family members were satisfied with the outcomes.

CONCLUSIONCompared with the V-, M- and Z-incision, the successive "Z" incision and skin flaps can yield longer penile length, solve the problem of insufficient skin flap to cover the wound and reduce such complications as skin necrosis and infection. It is well worth recommending for patients complaining of short penis because of penile abnormality, post-operation scar on the penis or circumcision.
