Objective To investigate the expression of CDX2 and its clinical significance in gastric intestinal epithelial tissue,and investigate the relationship between expression of CDX2 and infection of Helicobacter pylori.Methods The expression of CDX2 was studied by immunohistochemical technique in 93 cases of gastric mucosa (including 7 cases of normal gastric mucosa,21 cases of superficial gastritis,22cases of atrophic gastritis,43 cases of atrophic gastritis with intestinal metaplasia).14C urea breath test was used to detect the Helicobacter pylori infection.Results Helicobacter pylori was negative in 7 cases of normal gastric mucosa,the positive rate of Helicobacter pylori infection in atrophic gastritis and atrophic gastritis with intestinal metaplasia was 77.27％ (17/22),65.12％ (28/43),significantly higher than that of superficial gastritis [ 19.05％(4/21 )] (P ＜0.01 ).No expression of CDX2 was observed in normal gastric mucosa and superficial gastritis.The positive rate of CDX2 in atrophic gastritis with intestinal metaplasia was 83.72％(36/43 ),which was higher than that in atrophic gastritis [40.91％(9/22)](P＜ 0.01 ).Conclusions The infection of Helicobacter pylori and the expression of CDX2 are significantly associated with intestinal metaplasia.The abnormal expression of CDX2 might be the origin of intestinal metaplasia.The detection of gastric mucosa of CDX2 expression can be used to identify the intestinal metaplasia of gastric mucosa,predict the progress of gastric precancerous lesions,and provide a basis for the selection of treatment program.

Objective To investigate clinical characteristics of patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and hypokalemia and the effects of hypokalemia on prognosis. Methods Consecutive 216 cases with STEMI who underwent emergency PCI were divided into group A (serum potassium ＜ 3.5 mmol/L) and group B (serum potassium＞3.5 mmol/L). Infarct site, infarct interrelated artery, peak level of CK-MB and cTnT were compared between two groups. Post-infarctional angina pectoris, arrhythmia, heart failure and cardiac death were compared. Results (1 )The percentage of anterior wall myocardial infarction , left anterior descending artery (LAD) lesions in group A were significantly higher than those in group B [61.2%(41/67) vs. 44.3%(66/149),55.2%(37/67)vs. 38.9%(58/149),P = 0.022,0.026]. The peak levels of CK-MB and cTnT in group A were significantly higher than those in group B [(194.39 ± 101.27) μg/L vs. (115.35 ±78.62)μg/L,(19.16 ±11.48)μg/L vs. (9.07 ±7.65) μg/L,P = 0.004,0.002].(2)Left ventricular ejection fraction in group A was significant lower than that in group B (P - 0.003). The incidence rates of post-infarctional angina pectoris, ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation and heart failure were significantly higher in group A [43.3%(29/67),32.8%(22/67), 11.9%(8/67),37.3%(25/67)] than those in group B [24.8%(37/149),18.1%(27/149),4.0%(6/149),20.8%(31/149)](P = 0.006, 0.017, 0.029, 0.010). Conclusions Hypokalemia is associated with infarct site and infarct interrelated artery. Hypokalemia has bad effect on prognosis of STEMI.

Objective To understand the status of comprehensive health function impairment in elderly patients with rheumatoid arthritis, and to explore its influencing factors. Methods A total of 80 elderly patients with rheumatoid arthritis were enrolled in the first Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University from December 2014 to October 2016. The quality of life SF-36 score was used to measure the physical health, mental health, daily activities and social health to assess the overall health status of patients. The factors influencing the comprehensive health function of the patients were analyzed by univariate analysis and multivariate linear regression analysis. Results The univariate and multivariate analysis showed that the low level of education, general occupation, marital misfortune, poor economic condition and self-treatment expense were the risk factors affecting the comprehensive health function in elderly patients with rheumatoid arthritis ( P<0.05). Conclusion Elderly patients with rheumatoid arthritis have problems of the functions of daily life, physical health, mental health and social health. To alleviate the high medical costs, improve the level of medical treatment, improve the people 's health and education level and maintain a good mood are the key to improve the overall health in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

Objective To find a new therapy for chronic bacillary prostatitis (CBP) with intervention. Methods According to Seldinger way, the catheter was inserted into internal iliac artery or inferior vesical artery percutaneously and was perfused medicine. Results Of which 10 cases recovered and 2 increasingly improved. And there was no positive prostate bacterial culture. But after 3 to 6 month survey, one patient relapse. Conclusion The arterial-cathertered perfusion is a safe, simple and low recurrence way for CBP and available to further study.

Objective To study whether the leakage of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) can lead to pulmonary embolism in vertebroplasty (VP), and to observe the correlation of embolism degree with the doses of PMMA. Methods Fifteen canines were randomly divided into 3 groups: group A, B, C, and were injected 0.5, 1.0, 2.0 ml PMMA into the femoral veins, respectively. Before and after the injection, chest CT and angiography of pulmonary artery were performed, the pressure of pulmonary artery was measured, and the blood gas analysis of femoral artery was done. At last, the canines were euthanized and examined and histologically after HE-stained. Results In group C, the pressure of O_2 decreased obviously, and significant difference was found between before and 10 min after injection (P<0.05). The pressure of CO_2 increased quickly in group C, significant difference was detected between before and 1 min after injection (P<0.05). Pressure of pulmonary artery in both group B and C were significantly different between before and after injection (P<0.05). Conclusion The leakage of PMMA can lead to pulmonary embolism. The degree of pulmonary embolism is correlated to the doses of PMMA. The large dose of bone cement leakage can lead to disorder of respiratory function.

The effect of pioglitazone on the expression of genes relative to differentiation and function of primary brown adipose tissue cells was detected for the new treatment of obesity and type 2 diabetes.The results showed that pioglitazone promoted the differentiation and function of brown adipocytes( P＜0.05 ).

This study is to evaluate the therapeutic effect of fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) on NAFLD in MSG-IR mice and to provide mechanism insights into its therapeutic effect. The MSG-IR mice with insulin resistance were treated with high dose (0.1 micromol.kg-1d-1) and low dose (0.025 micromol.kg-1d-1) of FGF21 once a day for 5 weeks. Body weight was measured weekly. At the end of the experiment, serum lipids, insulin and aminotransferases were measured. Hepatic steatosis was observed. The expression of key genes regulating energy metabolism were detected by real-time PCR. The results showed that after 5 weeks treatment, both doses of FGF21 reduced body weight (P<0.01), corrected dyslipidemia (P<0.01), reversed steatosis and restored the liver morphology in the MSG model mice and significantly ameliorated insulin resistance. Additionally, real-time PCR showed that FGF21 significantly reduced transcription levels of fat synthetic genes, decreased fat synthesis and promoted lipolysis and energy metabolism by up-regulating key genes of lipolysis, thereby liver fat accumulation was reduced and liver function was restored to normal levels. In conclusion, FGF21 significantly reduces body weight of the MSG-IR mice, ameliorates insulin resistance, reverses hepatic steatosis. These findings provide a theoretical support for clinical application of FGF21 as a novel therapeutics for treatment of NAFLD.

OBJECTIVEThis study aimed to observe the postoperative pain rate and degree of pain in preschool children with cleft lip and palate, and investigate the effect of nursing intervention on pain relief.

METHODSA total of 120 hospitalized cases of three- to seven-year-old preschool children with cleft lip and palate were selected from May to October 2011. The subjects were randomly divided into the control group and experimental groups 1, 2, and 3. The control group used conventional nursing methods, experimental group 1 used analgesic drug treatment, experimental group 2 used psychological nursing interventions, and experimental group 3 used both psychological nursing intervention and analgesic drug treatment. After 6, 12, 24, and 48 h, pain self-assessment, pain parent-assessment, and pain nurse-assessment were calculated for the four groups using the pain assessment forms, and their ratings were compared.

RESULTSThe postoperative pain rates of the four groups ranged from 50.0% to 73.3%. The difference among the four groups was statistically significant (P < 0.001). The differences among the control group and experimental groups 1 and 2 were not statistically significant (P = 0.871), whereas the differences among experimental group 3 and the other groups were statistically significant (P < 0.001).

CONCLUSIONPostoperative pain in preschool children with cleft lip and palate is common. Psychological nursing intervention with analgesic treatment is effective in relieving postoperative pain.

Objective To determine the best endoscopic treatment for acute obstructive suppurative cholangitis (AOSC).Methods Data of 93 patients who were diagnosed as having AOSC in endoscopic center in the last three years were retrospectively analyzed.All patients were divided into three groups according to the different treatment methods:ENBD group,ENBD+ERBD group and double ERBD group.Postoperative temperature,bilirubin levels and mortality were compared.Results For patients with high level obstruction,incidence of fever in ENBD+ERBD group and double ERBD group were significantly higher than that of ENBD group (1/18 VS 4/10,P ＜ 0.05;0 VS 4/10,P ＜ 0.05).There were no significant differences in incidence of fever(1/18 VS 0) or bilirubin level decrease (17/18 VS 14/15) between ENBD+ERBD group and double ERBD group.For high level obstruction,if the patient had biliary imaging with contrast medium during operation,they would have higher incidence of high fever[(4/10 VS 3.45％ (1/28)] and mortality(3/11 VS 0),lower declining rate of bilirubin level [10/14 VS 96.55％(28/29)] than those without.Conclusion Both left and right hepatic ducts drainage should be recommended for high level biliary obstruction.During the operation,contrast medium should be limited to minimum dose,and should be avoided in high level obstruction cases.Air biliary imaging could be used when necessary.
