Objective To study the function difference of T helper cells(Th)and dendritic cells (DCs) in patients with different hepatitis B virus (HBV) genotypes. Methods IL-12,IL-2 and IL-4 released by Th was measured in 30 patients with different HBV genotypes. After DCs were differentiated and proliferated, DCs’ configuration and amounts were observed, and IL-12 released by DCs was measured in 20 patients. Then the data were statistical analyzed. Results IL-12, IL-2 and IL-4 were significantly higher in patients with hepatitis B than the controls (t=2.9272,t=2.7350,P

Objective To identify endoscopic and the endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) features of esophageal tuberculosis.Methods We retrospectively analyzed the data of 39 cases (mean age 50.7) of esophageal tuberculosis diagnosed by endoscopy and EUS in past 6 years.Results A total of 29 lesions were found in the middle part of esophagus,and 5 in upper and lower part,respectively.The lesions under endoscope demonstrated as protrusion in 30 and ulceration in 9.EUS found esophageal wall thickness in 9 cases,intra-wall occupying lesion in 17,mediastinum occupying lesions involving esophagus in 13,and calcified lymph nodes in mediastinum which was integrated with esophageal outer wall in 28 cases.Conclusion The esophageal tuberculosis occurs mainly in the middle part of the esophagus,and appears as protrusion and ulceration under endoscopy.EUS can find occupying lesions intra-or out of the esophageal wall,and full layer thickness,which can accompany calcified lymph nodes in meidastinum,and can be the basis of diagnosis.

Objective:To detect the interleukin-22(IL-22) levels in peripheral blood of the asthma patients and analyze the relationship between the IL-22 levels and IgE,pulmonary function,fractional exhaled nitric oxide(FENO),and to investigate the role of IL-22 in the pathogenesis of bronchial asthma. Methods:Seventy-eight patients with asthma were selected as experiment group.The asthma patients were divided into increased IgE group (n=46)and normal IgE group(n=32)according to the IgE levels.The asthma patients were also divided into acute attack stage and clinical control stage according to patients' clinical symptoms.In addition, twenty healthy controls were chosen as healthy control group.The plasma IL-22 levels, IgE,forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) and FENO levels of the subjects in various groups were detected and compared between various groups.The correlations between the plasma IL-22 levels and IgE, FEV1,FENO were analyzed.Results:The plasma IL-22 level and FENO level of the patients in asthma group were higher than those in healthy control group(P<0.05).The IL-22 level and FENO level of the patients in clinical control stage were lower than those in acute attack stage,but they were still higher than those in healthy control group(P<0.05).The plasma IL-22 level of the patients in increased IgE group was higher than that in normal IgE group(P<0.05).There were significant negative correlations between the IL-22 levels and FEV1 in the asthma patients in acute attack group and clinical control group(r=-0.365 3,P<0.05;r=-0.267 2,P<0.05),but there was no significant correlation between the IL-22 levels and FENO(r=0.011 9,P>0.05;r=0.059 8,P>0.05).Conclusion:The increased expression of IL-22 in peripheral blood of the patients with asthma may participate in the pathogenesis of asthma,and may aggravate the deterioration of pulmonary function of the asthma patients.

Objective To analyze the magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)features of multiple sclerosis(MS)patients both in the brain and the spinal cord and to explore its relationship with factors such as quality of life,disability of MS patients and so on.Methods A total of 170 MS patients confirmed clinically underwent MRI examination and answered the questionnaires of Multiple Sclerosis Quality Of Life-54 instrument,Expanded Disability Status Scale,Hamilton Anxiety Scale and Hamilton Depression Scale.Results The lesions on brain MRI were usually seen in the white matter around the lateral ventricles,the centrum ovale majus and frontal lobe.The commonly seen length of the single lesions on the spinal cord was as long as that of 1-2 vertebral bodies,but that of the fused lesions was as long as that of 4-5 vertebral bodies.The distribution of the lesions was significantly correlated with the quality of life,the degrees of the disability,anxiety and depression.Conclusion MRI examination is useful for early and better diagnosis of MS and can provide guidance for treatment,and thus can improve the prognosis and the quality of life of patients.

Objective To evaluate the performance of nested PCR in the detection of different fungi in paraffin wax embedded tissues. Methods Forty-four tissue samples were resected from rats infected with Fonsecaea monophora, patients with chromoblastomycosis, sporotrichosis or penicilliposis marneffei followed by preparation of paraffin wax embedded tissue sections for pathological examination and DNA extraction. Nested PCR was performed by using specific primers targeting the ribosomal DNA of Fonsecaea, Sporothrix and Penicillium marneffei, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of nested PCR were analyzed and compared with those of pathological examination. Results The nested PCR showed positive results in 8 of 20 samples from rats with chromoblastomycosis, 7 of 10 samples from patients with sporotrichosis and all of the 10 samples from patients with penicilliposis marneffei, but not in the control samples. In the detection of Fonsecaea,Sporothrix schenki and Penicillium marneffei, the sensitivity was 40% ,70% and 100%, respectively, and the specificity was consistently 100%, for the nested PCR. Pathological examination revealed fungal elements in 95%, 70% and 80% of the corresponding samples, respectively. Conclusion Detection of fungal DNA in paraffin wax embedded tissue by nested PCR can be applied to the diagnosis of deep mycosis, especially to the diagnosis of penicilliposis marneffei.

Objective To investigate the prevalence,characteristics and risk factors of fatigue in a large cohort of subjects with early Parkinson's disease (PD).Methods A total of 391 individuals with PD,recruited in Linzhi trial,were re-screened.Early,non-depressed subjects [Center for epidcmiological survey depression scale (CES-D)＜16]underwent further fatigue assessment.Subjects who scored＞4 on fatigue severity scale (FSS) were classified as fatigue.Motor symptoms and PD severity were assessed using the unified Parkinson's disease rating scale (UPDRS) and Hoehn-Yahr scale.Other clinical measures,including sleep disorder by Pittsburg sleep quality index (PSQ-Ⅰ),mental function by Alzheimer's Disease assessment scale-cognitive sections (ADAS-Cog) and quality of life by medical outcomes study short form 36 (SF- 36) were also evaluated.Results Among 204 subjects who completed fatigue measures,82 (40.2％) were classified as fatigue.The fatigue group had significantly more neurological impairment by higher scores on each subsets of UPDRS including mentation (P＜0.05),activities of daily living (P＜0.01) and motor (P＜0.01),while the subjects with fatigue had worse scores on SF-36 (P＜0.01).Multiple regression analyses showed that motor subset of UPDRS was the variable that had the predictive value for FSS score.The full model explained 6.4％ of the variance of the FSSscore (β=0.039,95％CI:0.019-0.059).However,other factors,including levodopa dosage,PSQ-Ⅰ,and ADAS-Cog score did not significantly contribute to the model.Conclusions Fatigue is a frequent symptom in carly,non-depressed patients with PD,affecting over 40％ of the patients in this cohort.The small correlation between fatigue and motor score,and the lack of association with dosage of dopaminergic treatment suggest that dopaminergic pathways might be only moderately involved in pathogenesis of fatigue.

Objective To investigate the differences of histopathological diagnosis between the endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) specimens and the biopsy specimens,and to evaluate the value and the limitation of EMR in diagnosis of early esophageal cancers and its precursor lesions.Methods A retrospective analysis on 217 lesions with early esophageal cancers or the precursor lesions treated by EMR was performed.The differences between pathological diagnoses of biopsy and EMR were compared.Results Compared with pathologic diagnosis after EMR,the yield of biopsy consisted of 41.9％ (91/217) as under-diagnosed,15.7％ (34/217) as over-diagnosed,and 42.4％ (92/217) as consistent.EMR diagnosis also explicated the differentiation,the grade,the invasive depth and the lympho-vascular infiltration of the lesions.Conclusion The endoscopic biopsy diagnosis is limited for the pathological diagnosis of early esophageal cancer and precancerous lesions,while the EMR sample can provide objective diagnosis and provide the guideline for the further treatment.
