Measles is an acute viral disease, almost all deaths cases of measles in children occur in developing countries each year.Despite the availability of a safe and effective vaccine, measles is still one of the main causes of death of children in global area.2015 report of Committee on Infectious Diseases of American provided evidence of clinical diagnosis, treatment and prevention of measles.

Neonatal pain is a common phenomenon. For a long time neonatal pain had not been focus on properly and managed appropriately. American Academy of Pediatrics Committee on Fetus and Newborn and Section on Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine published policy statement to emphasize the necessity of neonatal pain assessment,and summarize the neonatal operability pain assessment method,drug and non-drug control measures,also update prevention and management of procedural pain in the neonate in 2016. Until today the guideline for neonatal pain management has not yet been released in China. As the reference for clinicians in domestic,the content of policy statement will be reorganized and introduced.

Bronchiolitis is a common lower respiratory tract viral infection in infants.Incidence of bronchiolitis is greatly increasing in recent years,and seriously affecting the health of children.In order to better manage bronchiolitis,American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) convened a new subcommittee to review and revise the 2006 bronchiolitis guideline.This evidence-based guideline amended to provide new evidence of diagnosis,treatment and prevention bronchiolitis for the clinician.

Background Retinal angiomatous proliferation (RAP) is a subtype of neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD).There are currently very few studies on RAP.Objective This study was to explore the pathogenic mechanism of RAP in apolipoprotein E-deficient (ApoE-/-) mice with dyslipidemia.Methods Twenty-four 2-month-old SPF ApoE-/-mice were randomly divided into the high fat diet group and the normal diet group,and twelve 2-month-old C57BL/6 mice received the normal diet as controls.A diet with a higher content of fat was given for 4 consecutive months in the high fat diet group,and normal diet was given in the same way in the mice of the normal diet group.The mice were sacrificed at 6 months of age.The expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in the retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells,the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) in the outer plexiform layer (OPL),microvascular density (MVD) and microvascular area (MVA) in the OPL were examined by immunohistochemistry and semi-quantitatively by histopathology with the Mias 2000 Imaging Analyzer System.The expression of VEGF protein in the retina was examined by Western blot.Results The MVD in the retinal OPL were (20.67±3.20) and (19.50± 1.87),respectively,in the ApoE-/-mice of the high fat diet group and the normal diet group,which were significantly higher than that (12.50±1.87) of the C57BL/6 normal diet group (all at P＜0.01).MVA in the retinal OPL were (626.49± 120.99) μm2 and (514.06±88.83) μm2 in the ApoE-/-mice of the high fat diet group and the normal diet group,respectively,showing a significant increase in comparison with the (336.52±84.96) μm2 of the C57BL/6 normal diet group (P＜0.01).The staining area of VEGF in RPE cells was (21 048±1849) μm2 in the ApoE-/-mice of the high fat diet group,showing a significant increase in comparison with the (17 116±2023) μm2 of the C57BL/6 normal diet group.However,no significant difference was found in the staining area of VEGF between the ApoE-/-mice with normal diet group and the C57BL/6 normal diet group ([17 854±2967] μm2 vs.[17 116±2023] μm2) (P＞0.05).Significant elevation was also seen in the staining area of VEGFR-2 in the retinal OPL of the ApoE-/-mice of the high fat diet group (12 193±3806)μm2 and the ApoE-/-mice of the normal diet group (11 969± 3616)xm2 compared with C57BL/6 mice of the normal diet group (5387±2225)μm2(all at P＜0.01).The relative expression values (VEGF/β-actin) of VEGF in the retinas were (1.51 ±0.32) and (1.17±0.39) in the ApoE-/-mice of the high fat diet group and the normal diet group,respectively,showing a significant increase in comparison with (0.28±0.14) of the C57BL/6 normal diet group (P＜0.01).Conclusions The expression of VEGF and VEGFR-2 in the retinas increases in the ApoE-/-mouse,which leads to the enlargement of MVD and MVA in the retinal OPL and subsequent RAP occurrence.

Objective To assess the feasibility of a novel 99Tcm labelled polypeptide analogue for interleukin-11 receptor ( IL11R) imaging in a bone metastases model for prostate cancer. Methods A novel circular polypeptide analogue of IL11 ( c( CGRRAGGSC ) ) was indirectly labeled with 99Tcm and the product was named as 99Tcm-DTPA-IL11 RR. The labeling efficiency, radiochemical purity and stability of the product were measured with paper chromatography and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The biodistribution of 99Tcm-DTPA-IL11RR was investigated in 28 ICR normal mice. The organ radioactivity was measured as percentage activity of injection dose per gram of tissue ( %ID/g). The models of bone metastases from prostate cancer were established at the tibias of BALB/c nude mice bearing human prostate cancer PC-3 cells. The tumor bearing ( n= 5 ) and standard closed fracture nude mice models underwent both 99Tcm-DTPA-IL11RR and 99Tcm-methylene diphosphonate (MDP) scintigraphy study. The images were acquired at 0.5, 1,2, 4, 6, 8, 24 h after intravenous injection of the tracers. The competitive inhibition imaging was perfomed in three tumor bearing mice. One-way variance analysis was used. Results The labeling efficiency was 90.7%. The radiochemical purity of 99Tcm-DTPA-IL11RR in normal saline solution was (99.57 ±0.09)%, (99.29 ±0.18)%, (98.95 ±0.78)%, (98.67 ±0.11)%, (96.53 ±0.91)%, (95.20±0.70)%, (88.38 ±0.22)% and (36.17±1.29)% at room temperature after0, 1,2, 3, 4, 6, 8 and 24 h, respectively. The tracer radiochemical purity in the blood of ICR mice remained over 90% at 37 C for 6 h. The labeling compounds were excreted mainly through kidney. The peak uptake of bone ( ( 1.910 ±0.109) %ID/g) and liver ( (0.366 ±0.030) %ID/g) was at 4 h after injection. In the tumor bearing mice, the uptake of spine marrow and large joints of extremities was mild. The highest uptake at tumor region was at 4 h and persistent at 6-8 h after injection. The tumor to non-tumor ratios (T/NT) were 1.17 ±0.17, 2.20 ±0.29, 3.20 ±0.15, 3.67 ±0.23, 13.61±0.85, 9.45 ±0.37 and 3.33 ±0.30 at 0.5,1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 24 h, respectively (F=621.54, P＜0.05). In the standard closed fracture models,high uptake of 99Tcm-MDP was shown at the fracture site, with no increased 99Tcm-DTPA-IL11RR uptake noted. The tumor uptake was significantly depressed after a pre-injection of the unlabeled polypeptide analogue. Conclusions The synthesis of 99Tcm-DTPA-IL11RR is stable and the labeling efficiency is high. It may be a potential molecular probe in metastatic bone imaging for prostate cancer.

Abstract:Alcoholic liver disease (ALD) is one of the most common liver diseases in the world. Long-term alcoholism causes a series of pathological changes in the liver, which eventually leads to the occurrence of liver diseases with an increasing incidence. At present, significant progress has been made in the pathogenesis and pathological development of alcoholic liver disease, but the relevant mechanism of ALD has not been thoroughly studied. It is necessary to improve the existing animal model or establish a new, more comprehensive animal ALD model to simulate human ALD. Experimental animal models of ALD, especially rodents, are often used to simulate human ALD, and the ideal rodent ALD model can effectively simulate all aspects of alcohol in human liver. But so far, the commonly used animal models all have certain defects, and there is no complete animal model that can simulate human ALD. This paper reviewed the pathogenesis of ALD, related methods and influencing factors of ALD model, and provided a theoretical basis for relevant researchers to establish the ALD rodent model.

Objective To investigate the tendency of distribution and drug-resistance of the causative organisms of urinary tract infections(UTIs)in Wuhan,and provide reliable evidence for clinical treatment.Methods Analyzed the 5 378 stains of pathogen isolated from the urine of patients in hospital.The bacteria isolates were identified with BD Phoenix-100 while can-dida isolates were identified by color plate.Results A total of 5 378 stains of pathogen had been isolated.There were 2 945 stains (54.8%)of Gram-negative bacteria,1 657 stains (30.8%)of Gram-positive bacteria,776 stains (14.4%)of fungus. The rates of Escherichiacoli resistant to penicillin were highest (>83%),and there were no carbapenem-resistant strains. There were vancomycin and linezolid-resistant Enterococcispp strains,the lowest dection rates of which were 0.3%.The de-tection rate of MRCNS was over 83%.Conclusion Escherichiacoli was the most common pathogens of urinary tract infec-tion,and theβ-lactamase inhibitor complex can be used as empirical treatment of E.coli infections.Thedetection rate of MRCNS increased,which shoud be kept a watchful eye on.

Objective To explore the correlation between lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) with prostate volume and peak flow rate in aging staff men with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Methods A total of 180 elderly patients were randomly enrolled. They were diagnosed with BPH by rectal touch and transected ultrasound from April 2008 to December 2008. The international prostate symptom score (IPSS), prostate volume (PV) as well as peak flow rate (QMAX)were analyzed respectively. Results IPSS were ( 9. 1 ± 0. 7 ) scores, ( 12. 1 ± 0. 7 ) scores and (14.0±1.3) scores in 60-69 years old group, 70-79 years old group and more than 80 years old group. PV were (40. 6±1.9) ml, (42. 4±1.9) ml and (48. 7±2.8) ml in corresponding groups, and PV was elevated along with aging (F= 5. 705, 2. 983, P＜0. 05). QMAX were ( 14.7 ± 0. 6) ml/s,(14.0±0. 5) ml/s and (12.6±0.9) ml/s, and QMAX was decreased along with aging (F=2. 131, P＞0. 05). Along with aggravation of LUTS, PV (ml) increased (39. 2±18. 1 vs. 45.7±16.9 vs. 47. 9± 16. 5) and QMAX (ml/s) decreased ( 15.0 ± 4.8 vs. 13. 5 ± 5.06 vs. 11.5 ± 4. 7, F= 3. 427, 4. 742, P ＜0.05). Conclusions The LUTS of patients with BPH is aggravated with aging, at the same time, the degree of LUTS increases with PV and decreases with QMAX. If get active treatment of drugs if available, they may improve their quality of life.
