The incidence of severe acute pancreatitis in children is lower.But it has abrupt onset and atypical symptoms.The fatality rate is relatively high.This paper will review the progress on the diagnosis and treatment of severe acute pancreatitis.

Objective To compare the effect of inhaled corticosteroids and montelukast in children with asthma .Methods Data were obtained from Pubmed ,Embase and Central databases ,CNKI and VIP .Only randomized controlled trials (RCT ) that evalua-ting inhaled corticosteroids and montelukast for children were included .The Cochrane collaboration risk bias tools was used to eval-uated the quality of literature .Results The patients with inhaled corticosteroids had a better effect in FEV 1% and PEF than pa-tients with montelukast ,the incidences of adverse drug reactions had no statistically significant difference .The patients with inhaled corticosteroids combined with montelukast had a better effect in FEV 1% or PEF than patients with inhaled corticosteroids only . Conclusion The effect of inhaled corticosteroids is better than montelukast ,the effect of inhaled corticosteroids combined with montelukast is better than inhaled corticosteroids only ,and has drug safety .

Objective To investigate the effect of fluoride on expression of Runx2 mRNA and protein in bone tissue of rats. Methods Fourteen SD rats were randomly divided into two groups: control group(tap water with fluoride ＜ 0.06 mg/L), and fluorosis group(fluoride 50 mg/L in water). After 4 moths, expressions of both mRNA and protein of Runx2 in rat bone tissue were determined by RT-PCR and Western blotting. Results The results showed that the expression of Runx2 mRNA and protein in fluoride-treated bone tissue were 2.287 ± 0.261 and 0.929 ± 0.229, respectively, both of which were significantly higher than those of control group(0.995 ± 0.123,0.317 ± 0.068, t = 11.85,6.78, P ＜ 0.05). Conclusions Fluoride can increase the expression of Runx2 mRNA and protein in bone tissue of rats, and Runx2 may be involved in the pathogenesis of bone injury caused by fluoride.

This study is to evaluate the HAART pharmacodynamics with dolutegravir as the "anchor" in vitro. A nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) resistant recombinant virus model (VSVG/HIV-1(RT-D67N,K70R,T215F)) and an integrase inhibitors (INIs) resistant recombinant virus model (VSVG/HIV-1(IN-G140S,QI48H)) were constructed and established. The anti-viral pharmacodynamics was evaluated with drug combinations including two NRTIs along with one INI or one NNRTI. The results showed that the combination with an INI gave a stronger synergism on wild type HIV-1 replication comparing to that with an NNRTI. Comparing the two INIs as the "anchor" for HAART, DTG exhibited an equivalent CI to that of RAL on wild type HIV-1 replication; but a greater synergy than RAL on INI-resistant HIV-1 replication. Besides of the pharmacodynamics results of DTG-based drug combination, the results may contribute to clinical antiviral therapy.

Chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) is a common disease in males, which is characterized by persistent discomfort or pain in the pelvic region. As currently used drug therapies fail to produce satisfactory results, it is an urgent task to find new and effective methods for the treatment of CP/CPPS. In recent years, many reports are seen on the extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) for CP/CPPS. ESWT can significantly improve the symptoms of pelvic pain and urination disorders in CPPS patients, and its therapeutic effect is attributed to the improvement of angiogenesis and block of pain nerves.

Objective To observe the changes of pulmonary oxidative stress after cigarette smoking exposure,its re-lationship with inflammatory cytokines,and the effects of smoking cessation. Methods Fifty male BALB / c mice were randomly divided into the smoke exposure group,smoke cessation group,and the controls. Mice in smoke cessation group were exposed to cigarette smoking for 16 weeks. On 4,8,and 12 week after smoking cessation mice were executed and the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)and lung tissue were collected. The morphologi-cal alternations of lung tissue were observed. Mean length of interval and mean alveolar number were measured. Total cell numbers in BALF were counted. Superoxide dismutase(SOD)activity was measured with hydroxylamine method,malondialdehyde(MDA)level was measured with TBA method. The levels of pulmonary interleukin-8 (IL-8)and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)in BALF and lung tissue homogenate were measured with ELISA. Re-sults Compared with the mice in the controls,emphysematous changes were remarkable in the lung of cigarette ex-posed mice,the total cell numbers in BALF were increased significantly(P < 0. 05)and reduced gradually after smoking cessation(P < 0. 05). SOD and MDA levels increased remarkably in the cigarette exposure group(P <0. 05),and declined gradually after smoking cessation. The levels of IL-8 and TNF-α in BALF and lung tissue ho-mogenate in the smoke exposure group increased significantly( P < 0. 05),and lowered time-dependently after smoking cessation,but not reached to normal level even 12 weeks after smoking cessation. SOD and MDA levels were positively correlated with the cytokine changes. Conclusion Abnormal oxidative stress in the airways caused by cigarette smoking exposure was merely partially reversed after smoking cessation. And the inflammation remains persistent concomitantly.

Objective To establish a non-traumatic mouse model of acid aspiration-induced lung injury which al-lows longitudinal studies.Method C57BL/6 mice were anesthetized and orotracheally intubated with a 20 gauge angio-catheter guided by optical fiber.The mice were subsequently placed in the right lateral decubitus position and external com-pression to the left lung was manually applied.A polyethylene catheter was advanced into the right lung and used to instill either hydrochloric acid (2.5μL/g, 0.1 mol/L, pH 1.5) or saline as control.Then the mice were recovered with supple-mental oxygen for 4 hours.The pulmonary physiological function and survival of mice within 2 weeks after surgery were as-sessed.Results Methylene blue instillation showed that the staining fluid went into the right lung of the non-traumatically intubated mice.The survival rate of the mice with non-traumatic instillation was 80%, statistically significantly higher than those with tracheostomy instillation.Histological examination and lung function ( wet/dry ratio, elastance and arterial oxy-gen saturation) assay demonstrated that acid instillation caused a profound pathological changes and functional impairment of the lung.Besides, acid aspiration into the mouse lung caused a significant increase in neutrophil infiltration in mouse pulmonary alveoli and high concentrations of inflammatory factors (TNF-α, IL-6, CXCL1 and CXCL2) in the bronchoalve-olar lavage fluid.Conclusions We successfully established a mouse model of acid aspiration-induced lung injury, which may serve as a reliable model for longitudinally studying pulmonary immune-inflammatory mechanism in humans.
