1.Diagnosis and treatment of hypocalcemia in critical illness children
Chinese Journal of Postgraduates of Medicine 2017;40(2):190-192
Hypocalcemia often exists in critical illness children. Most of the sick children do not have an underlying disease of calcium homeostasis, and the mechanism of the hypocalcemia is complicated. Abnormal values of blood calcium may be a sign of critical illness and normalize spontaneously with resolution of the primary disease process. Hypocalcemia may be a autoprotection , and it may be harmful if we try to correct it. This article focuses on the theory and clinical treatment of hypocalcemia in critical illness children.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate clinical efficacy and toxic and side effects of bevacizumab combined with chemothera-py in the treatment of advanced gastric cancer. METHODS:84 patients with advanced gastric cancer were randomly divided into combination group and chemotherapy group,with 42 cases in each group. Chemotherapy group received FOLFOX4 chemotherapy regimen(oxaliplatin+calcium folinate+fluorouracil);combination group was additionally given bevacizumab 7.5 mg/kg intravenous-ly,d1,on the basis of chemotherapy. A treatment course lasted for 21 d,and both groups received 3 courses of treatment. The short-term efficacy,the quality improvement of life,serum tumor marker before and after chemotherapy and the toxic and side ef-fects were compared between 2 groups. RESULTS:The effective rate in combination group(57.14%)was significantly higher than chemotherapy group(35.71%),improvement rate of life quality in combination group was higher than chemotherapy group,reduc-tion rate of life quality in combination group was lower than chemotherapy group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05);after chemotherapy,the serum CEA and CA199 levels were significantly decreased in both groups,the decrease of combina-tion group was more significant than that of chemotherapy,with statistical significance(P<0.05). The incidence of decrease in leu-cocytes,platelet and hemoglobin,periphery neurotoxicity,nausea and vomiting,liver and kidney function in combination group was higher than in chemotherapy,but there was no statistical significance (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Bevacizumab combined with chemotherapy is effective in the treatment of advanced gastric cancer and don’t increase toxic and side effects.

Objective:To construct a suppression subtractive library of suppression-related genes from c serotype Streptococcus mutans (S.mutans). Methods:After being isolated from virulent and avirulent strain of S. mutans respectively, the intact and high-pure genomic DNAs were digested with restriction enzyme AluⅠ. The digested DNA of the avirulent strain ligated with an adaptor was used as tester DNA, and that of the virulent strain as driver DNA. Then the suppression subtractive hybridization(SSH) was carried out, the efficiency of ligation and subtraction were detected respectively. The subtracted fragments were inserted into vector pCR2.1 using T/A cloning kit and transformed into E. coli TOP10F' competent cells. The white colonies were selected to construct the suppression subtractive library. Results: Through electrophoresis of AluⅠ-digested DNAs, a smear ranged from 0.1 to 2.0 kb was observed. The ligation efficiency of tester DNA with adaptor was at least higher than 25 percent. The subtraction efficiency confirmed the success in enrichment of differential genes between virulent and avirulent strain of S. mutans. In the subtracted group, the appearance time of the 23S rRNA gene in both tester and driver DNA was later than that in the unsubtracted group by twelve cycles. It suggested that suppression subtractive hybridization happened indeed. Then the subtracted fragments were cloned and the suppression-related gene library between virulent and avirulent strain of S. mutans was constructed. Conclusions:The suppression subtracted library of suppression-related genes has been constructed.

Objective To investigate the relationship between bacteria biofilm and bacterial culture in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). Methods Ninety patients with CRS were enrolled in the study. Five patients with deviation of nasal septum and 10 healthy subjects served as controls. Mucosa of uncinate process or near the ostium of the maxillary sinus was obtained during endoscopic sinus surgery. All specimens were processed for bacterial culture and scanned by electron microscopy. Pearson test was performed to analyze the relationship between the presence of bacterial biofilm and the results of bacteria culture. Results The scanning electron microscopy showed bacterial biofilms in 64 (71.1%) out of 90patients with CRS, while the positive rate of bacteria culture in the study group was 66.7% (60/90). No bacterial biofilm and bacterium was detected in the control group and 26 culture-negative individuals in study group. Pearson correlation analysis showed a statistically association between bacterial biofilm and bacterial culture in CRS ( r = 0. 901, P = 0. 000). Conclusion Positive results of bacteria culture are highly correlated with the presence of bacterial biofilm in CRS patients.
