Allergic rhinitis is a kind of nasal mucosal chronic noninfectious inflammatory disease, which is caused by an imbalance in the body cytokine network,a number of intracellular signaling pathways being actived. Many studies have shown that mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) involved in the activation process of allergic rhinitis. p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), as one kind of that, plays a key role in the process of inflammatory cells proliferation and differentiation, as well as production of inflammatory cytokines, and involved in airway inflammatory mechanisms of chronic airway disease. In vitro experiments have confirmed that p38 MAPK inhibitors have anti-inflammatory effect by blocking the downstream related response.

Objective: In order to better understand the influencing factors of vertical rural health services integration and put forward policy suggestions for its sustainable development.Methods: 288 residents were investigated through questionnaire survey in three sample areas of Jiangsu province in August 2015.Results: In this study, 4 common factors have been found, namely organizational management, incentive mechanism, policy and supporting measures, as well as information sharing and business communication.The overall scores given by health managers, doctors and nurses, and public healthcare professionals were 0.03, 0.04 and-0.02 respectively.Conclusions: Therefore, in order to succeed, it is very necessary to introduce targeted supporting policies, establish a mutual communication mechanism, and make an effective incentive mechanism.

Currently,there are a lot of targets for the treatment of HBV infection,both for the host,and for the virus itself.However,existed clinical drugs can only control HBV infection,and can not remove the HBV,especially cccDNA.Therefore,the chronic persistent infection caused by HBV related diseases is still seriously threat to human health.People are still impatient for the development of new effective anti-HBV drugs.In this paper,we review the recent research of the anti-hepatitis B virus based on the host as the target.

Objective:To study the expression and significance of apoptosis-related gene tfar19 in normal oral mucosa, oral leukoplakia and oral squamous cell carcinoma.Methods:The expression of TFAR19 was observed in 17 cases of oral normal mucosa, 60 of oral leukoplakia and 30 of oral squamous cell carcinoma by immunohistochemical stain.Results:①Positive expression of TFAR19 was observed in 88.2% of the cases of oral normal mucosa, 63.3% of oral leukoplakia, and 30% of oral squamous cell carcinoma. There was statistical difference between each two groups (P

Objective To strengthen the understanding of the imaging features in congenital aberrant left pulmonary artery (CALPA). Methods All 4 patients underwent chest film and Doppler echocardiography. Thres cases were examined by enhanced spiral CT examination. In addition, MRI and DSA were performed in 2 cases respectively. Thres cases were proven by surgery or autopsy. Results (1) appearances on chest films included cardiomegaly, pulmonary overvascularity, left hilum a little lower than the right one, emphysema, atelectasis, and pneumonia. (2) bronchography showed stenosis of trachea and/or bronchia. (3) Barium esophagram showed an imprint on the left anterior wall of esophagus. (4) Contrast-enhanced spiral CT and MRI showed marked dilatation of main pulmonary artery (MPA) and the root of MPA extended backward to become right pulmonary artery (RPA), the left pulmonary artery (LPA) arose from the RPA directly. (5) echocardiography indicated LPA arose from RPA. (6) DSA showed MPA was marked dilated, and LPA arose from RPA. (7) other abnormalities included 3 PDA, 2 PLSVC, and ~1 ASD. Conclusion CT and MRI are the best methods to diagnose CALPA.

Objective To observe the change of serum homocysteine (Hcy) ,plasma von willebrand factor (vWF) and whole blood tissue factor procoagulant activity (TF-PCA) within 48 h of onset in the patients with coronary heart disease (CHD).Meth-ods The relevant instrument was adopted to detect the level of serum Hcy ,plasma vWF and whole blood TF-PCA in 300 CHD pa-tients and 100 individuals undergoing the healthy physical examination ,and then the statistical analysis was performed.Three hundreds cases of CHD were divided into the stable angina group (SAP group ,n= 96) ,unstable angina group (UAP group ,n=100) and acute myocardial infarction group (AMI group ,n=104).Results The Hcy ,vWF and TF-PCA levels in the CHD patients were higher than those in the control group ,the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).The Hcy level:the AMI group>UAP group> SAP group ,the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).The vWF and TF-PCA levels in the AMI group and UAP group were higher than those in the SAP group with statistical difference (P<0.05).The Hcy level in SAP ,UAP and AMI patients complicated with diabetes and hypertension was significantly increased compared with the patients without complicating di-abetes and hypertension ,the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).The vWF and TF-PCA levels had statistical differ-ence between the UAP group and AMI group(P<0.05).Conclusion Routinely detecting the levels of Hcy ,vWF and TF-PCA has an important clinical value for the diagnosis and curative effect observation in the patients with CHD.

To develop a patient-reported outcome instrument for chronic gastrointestinal diseases and to select items by analyzing the data from clinical investigation.

Clinical evaluation proceedings from patient-reported outcomes (PRO) are being concerned increasingly. Based on the concept of PRO, the report discusses the findings in the research recently made at home and abroad. PRO from apoplexy patients with spastic paralysis was taken as an example in the exploration of how to evaluate the curative effects in clinical practice on the basis of PRO.

Objective To learn the psychological needs of the hospital staff in terms of their life,medical care and psychological health.Methods 2910 hospital staff were interviewed with questionnaires and the outcomes analyzed with x2 test and descriptive analysis.Results 96.9％of the surveyed found themselves in need of psychological counseling; considerable consulting needs of the staff; most of them turn to friends to complain instead of their leaders.Conclusion The psychological counseling should be enhanced to build effective communication channels and ease stress of the staff.

Objective To explore the relationship among absolute income,big five personality and life satisfaction,and the mediating effect of relative income.Methods 5927 citizens from different cities were assessed by NEO five-factor inventory (NEO-FFI) and satisfaction with life scale (SWLS).Results (1) The mean score of life satisfaction was 19.61 ± 5.99.Female scored higher than male,and there were statistically significant differences between them (19.98 ± 5.92 vs 19.14 ± 5.95,t =-5.08,P ＜ 0.01).(2) The absolute income,extraversion and conscientiousness had a significant main effect on life satisfaction (β =0.13 ～ 0.19,P ＜ 0.01),neuroticism,openness and agreeableness had a significant main negative effect on life satisfaction (β =-0.04--0.15,P＜0.01).(3)The relative income had a significant main effect on life satisfaction (β =0.35,P ＜0.01).(4)Relative income had a mediating effect on the relation between absolute income,neuroticism,extraversion,agreeableness,conscientiousness and life satisfaction (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion Relative income has a mediating effect on the relation between absolute income,personality and life satisfaction.
