Pulmonary fibrosis is a common respiratory disease in the clinic. Until now, the pathogenesis is still un-clear. Using clotting mechanism as the starting point, this article mainly explored abnormal changes of the coagula-tion - fibrinolysis system in the development of pulmonary fibrosis. The effective treatment through the activation of blood circulation to remove stasis in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) point of view was also observed on the man-agement of interstitial pulmonary fibrosis. It considered that to carry out the anticoagulant therapy for abnormal coag-ulation, which may become a new target for clinical treatment of interstitial lung diseases. It provided new ideas and theoretical support for clinical treatment of pulmonary interstitial fibrosis.

Objective: To analyze the etiological characteristics of an outbreak of Campylobacter foodborne disease in a middle school in Suzhou City, so as to provide insights into the identification of pathogenic factors of Campylobacter foodborne disease outbreaks. Methods: Eighteen anal swabs from patients, 10 anal swabs from canteen workers, 43 food samples, 2 drinking water samples, 2 food original material samples and 31 environmental samples were collected, and the pathogens were rapidly screened using the gastrointestinal infection detection strip. The pathogens were isolated and cultured using the double-pore filtration membrane method, and cluster analysis of bacterial isolates was performed using pulsed field gel electrophoresis ( PFGE ). In addition, the susceptibility of Campylobacter isolates to antibiotics was tested using the Campylobacter agar dilution method. Results: A total of 63 cases with Campylobacter infections were reported, and the major clinical symptoms included diarrhea ( 51 cases, 80.95% ) and fever ( 39 cases, 61.90% ), while no inpatients or deaths were found. Twelve Campylobacter-positive samples were detected, including 11 anal swabs sampled from patients and one food original material sample. Among the 11 positive anal swabs, there were 10 samples positive for Campylobacter jejuni and one sample positive for C. coli, and of the one positive food original material, C. coli was identified. PFGE analysis showed that 10 C. jejuni isolates of had 100.0% homology, and these 10 isolates were 100.0% resistant to naphthyridic acid, ciprofloxacin and tetracycline, appearing multidrug resistance. Conclusions This is an outbreak of foodborne disease caused by C. jejuni infections. Gastrointestinal infection detection strips, double-pore filtration membrane and PFGE typing are rapid and accurate to identify pathogenic factors.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of endoscopic push?radial dissection (EPRD)for benign esophageal stricture(BES). Methods Clinical data of 24 patients diagnosed as having BES who received EPRD were analyzed. The procedure and efficacy were evaluated. Results All 24 patients underwent EPRD successfully with mean operation time being 32 min(15?45 min).The mean esophageal stric?ture incision length was 3?? 2 cm (1?? 0?8?? 0 cm).No severe complications related to EPRD occurred, or trans?ferred for surgery. Patients were followed up for 1?5 months (mean 2?? 8 months). Dysphagia was relieved signif?icantly during the follow?up in 23 patients where endoscopy could go through smoothly. But dysphagia re?oc?curred in one patient 2 weeks after the operation, who underwent a second EPRD and stent implantation, then dysphagia was relieved. Conclusion EPRD is safe, feasible and effective for benign esophageal stricture.

This paper is aimed to study a method and feasibility of early diagnostic system using hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) in the newborns. Fifteen non-invasive indicators with high sensitivity and specificity were selected for the early diagnosis of HIE on the basis of related researches from the literature and the researches in our laboratory. The diagnostic test was done with 140 cases with the HIE, using the fussy BP neural network experiment system. The initial results showed that the accuracy rate was 100% for the training set and 95% for the testing set, and the error rate was 5%. The data suggested that the fuzzy back-propagation neural networks, with the clinical comprehensive indicators, exhibited a high accuracy for the early diagnosis of HIE. This method provides an objective and convenient new way for the early clinical diagnosis of the HIE.
