To investigate the curative effect of individualized treatment on peripheral facial paralysis. Methods:A treatment group of 121 patients was treated with acupuncture under an individualized plan based on the condition of disease. For a control study,118 patients were treated with conventional acupuncture. The courses of treatment and the curative effects were compared. Results:The cure and marked efficacy rate was 90.9% in the treatment group and 69.5% in the control group. There was a significant difference (P＜0.01).There was also a significant difference in the cure and marked efficacy rate in each courses of treatment between the two groups (P＜0.01). Conclusion:Individualized acupuncture treatment is better in the effect and shorter in the courses than conventional acupuncture treatment for peripheral facial paralysis.

Objective To observe the effects of whole body γ-ray radiation on hematopoiesis and cytokines related to T cell subsets in mouse,to detect the expression of transcription factors of splenic T cell subsets,and to investigate the correlation between hematopoiesis injury and abnormal immune function.Methods Totally 50 BALB/c mice were divided into radiation group and blank control group with the random number table method.The former group were given 5.5 Gy 60Co γ-ray radiation on whole body and another received sham radiation.The numbers of white blood cells and platelets of radiation group were counted at 4,8,12 and 20 d after radiation,and these numbers of blank control mice were counted only at 20 d.Hematopoietic tissue proliferation was evaluated by biopsy sections of mice femur.The contents of Th1,Th2,and Th17 in peripheral blood were detected with cytometric bead array (CBA).The expressions of T-bet/GATA-3 and RORγt/Foxp3 proteins related to the differentiation of T cell subsets in spleen tissue were measured by Western blot.Results The numbers of white blood cells and platelets of radiation group mice were reduced obviously (t WBC =18.48,15.72,9.79,3.30; t PLT =22.52,19.74,11.78,4.70,P ＜ 0.05) compared with blank control group.Biopsy sections showed that bone marrow hematopoietic cells of the radiated mice were less than those of blank group,and adipocytes became more.At 8 d,the marrow suppressions were more obvious than those at 20 d.Serum contents of Th1 cytokines IFN-γ,TNF-α and Th2 cytokines IL-4,IL-6 in the radiation group were higher than those in the blank control group at 8 and 12 d(t IFN-γ =2.93,3.36,t TNF-α =6.09,8.11,6.43,4.49,tIL-4 =4.49,3.18,t IL-6=5.11,8.67,6.67,8.55,P＜0.05).IL-17A secreted mainly by Th17 cells was also higher than the blank (t =3.68,6.24,5.32,4.06,P ＜ 0.05).Compared with the blank control group,the expression of T-bet protein increased significantly (t =5.64,2.75,3.56,4.65,P ＜ 0.05),and the expressions of GATA-3,RORγt,and Foxp3 proteins decreased at 4,8 and 12 d except the RORγt at 20 d (tRORγt =6.79,4.31,4.47,tGATA-3 =3.88,8.06,2.84,3.23,tFoxp3 =10.00,8.06,2.89,5.93,P＜ 0.05).Conclusions 5.5 Gy whole body γ-ray radiation inhibits bone marrow hematopoiesis of BALB/c mice and makes the differentiation and function of T cells to be abnormal,which may be associated with bone marrow hematopoiesis obstacle.

Objective To study the benzo(a)pyrene (B[a]P)-induced mRNA expression of aromatic hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) and cytochrome P4501A1 (CYP1A1) genes in rat liver. Methods Rats were injected intraperitoneally with 5, 10 and 15mg/kg of B[a]P. The total RNAs were extracted from rat livers by RNA purification kit, and the mRNA expression of AHR and CYP1A1 genes was determined by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). β-actin was used as the internal control. The mRNA expression of both AHR and CYP1A1 genes was measured at indicated time points (24, 48 and 72h) after B[a]P treatment at three different concentrations (5, 10 and 15mg/kg). Results The mRNA expression of AHR gene increased in a time-dependent manner at the concentration of 10mg/kg but not at 5 and 15mg/kg of B[a]P. The mRNA expression of CYP1A1 gene differed significantly at 48h and 24h in rat livers treated with 10 and 15mg/kg dosage of B[a]P. The mRNA expression of AHR and CYP1A1 genes increased with B[a]P treatment in a concentration-dependent manner. The time-dependent increase in mRNA expression was shown by AHR but not by CYP1A1 gene with B[a]P (10mg/kg) treatment. Conclusion This study demonstrates that toxic B[a]P increases the mRNA expression of both AHR and CYP1A1 genes in vivo, suggesting that B[a]P may play a role in cancer genesis by this way.

Objective To estimate the relative risk for lung cancer associated with genetic polymorphism of T6235C mutation in 3' non-coding region (Msp Ⅰ) of cytochrome P450 1A1 (CYP1A1) and glntathione S-transferase M1 (GSTM1) in the Mongolian population in Inner Mongolian Region of China. Methods Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) and multiplex PCR methods were used to analyze blood samples obtained from 263 case subjects and 263 control subjects to determine their genotypes for CYP1A1 and GSTM1.Control subjects were matched with case subjects by ethnic background, age and gender. Results The frequencies of the variant CYP1A1 genotypes (CYP1A1C) and GSTM1-null in lung cancer groups were higher than those in control groups (38.4% vs. 28. 5% and 57.8% vs. 48.0%). The individuals who corried with CYP1A1C genotype had a significantly higher risk of lung cancer (OR=1.56, 95% CI=1.08 to 2.25, P=0.016) than those who carried with non-variation CYP1A1 genotype. The ones who carried with GSTM1-null genotype also had a significantly higher risk of lung cancer (OR=1.49, 95% CI=1.06 to 2.10, P=0.023) than these who carried with GSTM1-present genotype.When combination of polymorphisms of CYP1A1 and GSTM1 genotypes was analyzed, the risk of lung cancer for combination of CYP1A1C and GSTM1-null genotypes was increased significantly (OR=2.084, 95e CI=1.27 to 3.42, P=0.003). Susceptibility to lung cancer was related to smoking (OR=2.10, 95% CI=1.48 to 2.98, P=0.000). Considering smoking status, the risk of lung cancer for combination of smoking and CYP1A1C genotype was remarkably increased (OR=2.76, 950/0 CI=1.74 to 4. 37, P=0.000). It was the same case with combination of smoking and GSTM1-null genotype (OR=4. 38, 95% CI=2.35 to 8.15, P=0.000). Conclusion The polymorphisms of CYP1A1C genotype and GSTM1-null are the risk factors of lung cancer in the Mongolian population in Inner Mongolia Region of China. Smoking is also related to susceptibility to lung cancer. There may be a synergetic interaction between CYP1A1C and GSTM1-null in the elevated susceptibility of lung cancer. Smoking may have a synergetic interaction with CYP1A1C and GSTM1-null in the elevated susceptibility of lung cancer.

Objective: To understand the public health emergency response capacity in primary and secondary schools, and to explore the problems and challenges in the prevention and control of public health emergency in primary and secondary schools for specific strategies. Methods: By using the stratified group sampling method, a questionnaire survey on general situation, knowledge, attitude and training, as well as public health emergencies response capacity among 2 988 teachers or leaders responsible for school emergency response in primary and secondary schools from Beijing, Chongqing and Yunnan. Results: Participants varied on their positions, titles, educational background and knowledge accuracy. Higher knowledge accuracy was associated with higher educational background ( χ 2=50.73-203.36, P < 0.05 ). The implementation of regular public health emergency related programs was poorly conducted in high schools (50.0%). Urban schools (42.0%) had higher proportion of qualified health care professionals than rural schools (18.2%), and private schools (48.5%) was higher than public schools (24.7%). The primary challenges included the shortage of guidance from professionals and the lack of related testing equipment (84.91%, 74.03%). Conclusion Although the ability of emergency handling of public health emergencies in schools in the three regions is advancing with the times, there are still many deficiencies, some omissions in the mastery of knowledge. It is suggested to inerease pre service and special training of school health work CDC should strengthen technical guidance and work supervision of infectious disease management in schools.

Objective: To analyze the changes in the expression of hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) and inflammatory cytokines and to investigate the role of HIF-1α in regulating the production of inflammatory cytokines during influenza A (H1N1) virus infection. Methods: BALB/c mice were injected with H1N1 virus to establish the mouse model of H1N1 virus infection. Fifteen BALB/c mice were randomly divided into three groups: control group, H1N1 virus group and H1N1 virus+ HIF-1α inhibitor group. Inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-10) in samples of serum and lung tissues were detected by Luminex and ELISA. Levels of HIF-1α in serum and lung tissue samples were detected by Western blot and ELISA, respectively. Results: Compared with the control group, the levels of inflammatory cytokines in serum (IL-6, TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-10) and lung tissues (IL-6 and TNF-α) and the expression of HIF-1α in serum and lung tissues in the H1N1 virus group were significantly increased. The levels of HIF-1α, IL-6, TNF-α IL-1β and IL-10 in lung tissues in H1N1 virus+ HIF-1α inhibitor group were significantly lower than those of the H1N1 virus group. Conclusion During H1N1 virus infection, the levels of inflammatory cytokines and HIF-1α were significantly increased. The production of inflammatory cytokines was significantly reduced after inhibiting HIF-1α expression, suggesting that HIF-1α might promote the production of inflammatory cytokines.

OBJECTIVE：To discuss the inhibitory effect of lanthanum chloride on the calcification of vascular smooth muscle cells（VSMCs）induced by high phosphorus and its mechanism. METHODS ：On the basis of screening the action concentration and time of lanthanum chloride by MTT method ，human VSMCs were divided into control group （1 mmol/L phosphorus solution ）， lanthanum chloride high concentration control group （1 mmol/L phosphorus solution+ 60 μmol/L lanthanum chloride），model group （3 mmol/L phosphorus solution ），sodium chloride group （3 mmol/L phosphorus solution+ 180 μmol/L sodium chloride），nuclear factor κB（NF-κB）signaling pathway agonist+lanthanum chloride group （3 mmol/L phosphorus solution+ 1 μg/mL lipopolysaccharide+ 60 μmol/L lanthanum chloride），positive control group （3 mmol/L phosphorus solution+ 100 μmol/L sodium pyrophosphate），and lanthanum chloride low ，medium，and high concentration groups （3 mmol/L phosphorus solution+ 15，30，60 μmol/L lanthanum chloride）. Alizarin red S staining and Von Kossa staining were used to detect cell calcification in each group after treated with phosphorus solution for 6 d and relevant medicine for 2 d. Western blot assay was used to detect the protein expression of TNF-α receptor associated protein 6（TRAF6），nuclear factor κB inhibitor protein α（IκBα），NF-κB p65，bone morphogenetic protein 2 （BMP-2），smooth muscle 22 α（SM22α）and Runt related transcription factor 2（Runx2）. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to detect mRNA expression of TRAF 6，IκBα，BMP-2，SM22α and Runx2. RESULTS ： Compared with control group ，no cell calcification was observed in the lanthanum chloride high concentration control group ，while obvious cell calcification and significant increase of OD value were observed in model group and sodium chloride group （P＜ 0.01）；protein and mRNA expression of TRAF 6 and BMP- 2 in cytoplasm as well as mRNA expression of Runx 2，protein expression of NF-κB p65 and Runx 2 in nucleus were significantly increased （P＜0.01）；protein and mRNA expression of IκBα and SM22α as well as protein expression of NF-κB p65 in cytoplasm were significantly decreased （P＜0.01）. Compared with model group，cell calcification was significantly improved in lanthanum chloride groups and positive control group ，while OD values were significantly reduced ；the expression levels of the above-mentioned protein and mRNA were reversed to varying degrees （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared with lanthanum chloride high concentration group ，obvious cell calcification was observed in NF-κB signaling pathway agonist + lanthanum chloride group ，and OD value was significantly increased ；the above indexes were significantly reversed in cytoplasm and nucleus （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. CONCLUSIONS ：Lanthanum chloride can inhibit the calcification of VSMCs induced by high phosphorus ，and its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of NF-κB signaling pathway activation.
