According to clinical epidemiological researches, the usage of antibiotics in infant increases the risk of childhood asthma morbidity. The mechanism of this link is not entirely clariifed, and it is assumed of being related to side effects of antibiotics, which changes the colonization of normal intestinal lfora and reduces the diversity. It is clear that normal intestinal lfora of infant help to construct innate immune system and adaptive immune system, and forge immune tolerance. Therefore, normal intestinal lfora might be helpful in reducing allergies. The usage of antibiotics in early life changes the quantity and the composition of intestinal lfora, and breaks the balance of immune homeostasis, which might increase the risk of asthma morbidity. The abuse of antibiotics in children is a general phenomenon in China which needs attention from pediatricians.

Objective To establish a kind of simple,rapid,accurate and reliable method to analyze the concentration of alcohol in blood by headspace gas chromatography (HS-GC) with dual-column and dual-detector.Methods The samples were pre-treated by headspace sampler,which was the basis on the extraction principle of the gas extracting volatile substances.Next,these samples were analyzed by HS-GC that the tertiary butyl alcohol was acted as the internal standard substance.The HS-GC was equipped with two chromatographic column (the DB-ALC2 chromatographic column of 001 channel;the DB-ALC1 chromatographic column of 002 channel).At the same time,the HS-GC was also equipped with two hydrogen flame ionization detector (FID1 detector;FID2 detector).The retention time of the peak was finally performed as qualitative parameter and the standard curves method of internal standard were acted as quantitative basis.Results The liner range of the method was 0.2-2.0 mg/mL.The linear regression equation of 001 channel was Y=1.057 7X+0.048 2 and the correlation coefficient was R2=0.999 05.Besides,the linear regression equation of 002 channel was Y=1.039 5X+0.046 5 and the correlation coefficient was R2=0.999 25.In short,the average recovery rate of the method was 99.70%.Relative standard deviation(RSD) was less than 4% between the analysis results of 001 channel and 002 channel for the determination of the plan sample.Conclusion The method shown satisfactorily that it could not only be applied to determine the alcohol of blood of forensic toxicological analysis,but also be applied to determine the plan sample of ability test and verify of laboratory ability accreditation.

Objective To identify the dynamic influence of antibiotics use on T helper cell(Th) 1/Th2 cytokine balance in neonatal rats in their early life.Methods Twenty-four newborn SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groups including 2dCef group,7dCef group and a control group (n =8).SD rats at 2 or 7 days of age were injected Cefotaxime sodium intraperitoneally for 3 consecutive days.The control group was injected the same amount of phosphate buffer saline.Serum and bronchoaveolar lavage fluid (BALF) samples were collected on 35 days old and diffe-rential cell count in BALF was done.Enzyme linked immunosorbent was used to detect the concentration of interleukin(IL)-12,interferon-γ(IFN-γ),IL-4 and IL-5 in serum and BALF,and real-time quantitative PCR was used to detect mRNA expression of those cytokines in lung tissues.Results The number of total cells,neutrophils,and lymphocytes in Cefotaxime treated on 2nd day after birth were significantly higher than those in the controls and 7th day group (F =93.78,15.84,7.36,all P ＜0.05).For Thl cytokines detection:the IL-12 secretion in BALF and serum and INF -γsecretion in BALF of the 2 antibiotic groups were lower than those in control group (F =26.53,12.95,47.18,all P ＜ 0.05),the decrease in 2dCef group were more obviously than 7dCef group [(127.72 ± 12.35) ng/L vs (198.15 ± 18.93) ng/L,(105.91±13.61) ng/Lvs (133.63 ±13.82) ng/L,(147.23 ±24.10) ng/Lvs (178.52±12.46) ng/L,all P ＜0.05].The mRNA expression of IL-12 in antibiotic groups were lower than those in control group (F =33.60,P ＜0.05),and the decrease in 2dCef group was more obvious than that in 7 dCef group (0.073 ± 0.023 vs 0.093 ± 0.028,P ＜0.05).For the Th2 cytokines:the IL-4 secretion concentration and mRNA expression in the 2 antibiotic groups were higher than those in the control group (BALF,serum and lung) (F =64.26,13.79,11.54,all P ＜ 0.05),the increase in 2dCef group was more obvious than that in 7dCef group[(103.65 ± 7.68) ng/L vs (82.04 ± 8.77) ng/L,(87.81 ± 4.72) ng/L vs (69.69 ± 7.79) ng/L,(0.067 ± 0.036) ng/L vs (0.051 ± 0.055),all P ＜ 0.05];however,no significant differences of IL-5 either mRNA or cytokine secretion being detected among these 3 groups (F =0.50,0.75,0.08,all P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Antibiotic use during early time of neonate rats alters postnatal immune cells distribution in the lung and promotes the shift in cytokine balance towards a Th2 profile,and the earlier the antibiotic use,the more serious the impact.

BACKGROUND:Currently, there is no effective treatment for keloids that often recur. Its pathogenesis is stil entirely unclear, and fibroblast proliferation and apoptosis have become a research hotspot.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the expression of Livin, Smac and Caspase-3 in keloids and to analyze their relationship so as to preliminarily explore the significance of Livin, Smac and Caspase-3 in the pathogenesis of keloids.
METHODS:RT-PCR and immunohistochemical methods were used to detect the mRNA and protein expressions of Livin, Smac and Caspase-3 in keloids (n=20) and normal skin tissues (n=20).
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the normal skin tissue, the mRNA and protein positive expressions of Livin were significantly higher in keloids (P < 0.05), while the mRNA and protein positive expressions of Smac and Caspase-3 were lower in keloids (P < 0.05). There was a negative association between Livin and Smac, Caspase-3 protein expression in keloids. These findings indicate that the high mRNA expression of Livin may cause the imbalance between proliferation and apoptosis of fibroblasts by inhibiting the mRNA expression of Smac and Caspase-3, and eventualy lead to the formation of keloid.

Objective To explore the lateral neck lymph node metastasis (LNM) in patients affected by papillary thyroid carcinoma(PTC) with clinically negative neck (cN0-PTC) and to discuss the necessity of prophylactic lateral neck lymph node dissection.Methods Clinical data of 651 cN0-PTC patients who underwnt surgical procedure in Tumor Hospital of Zhengzhou University from Jan.2012 to May.2015 were retrospectively analyzed.Chi-square test was used for univariate analysis.Results Of the 651 cN0-PTC patients,62.9％ had LNM (51.3％ in central neck,41.0％ in lateral neck,and 11.7％ with "skip" metastasis).The lateral neck metastasis rate was 50.9％ in men and 37.7％ in women (P＜0.05),61.9％ in patients with tumor diameter ＞1.0 cm and 25.9％ in patients with tumor diameter ≤ 1.0 cm (P＜0.001),47.2％ with multifocal cancer and 40.3％ with unifocal tumor(P＜0.05),63.1％ with extrathyroidal extention and 34.3％ without extention (P＜0.001),64.1％ with ≥3 positive nodes in central neck and 48.3％ with ＜3 positive nodes (P＜0.05),52.4％ with upper lobe cancer and 32.9％ with other locations(P＜0.001),41.0％ in patients ≤45 years and 40.9％ in patients ＞45 years(P＞0.05).Conclusion Central neck dissection should be performed in all cN0-PTC patients.Prophylactic lateral neck dissection should beselectively performed in cN0-PTC patients with following high-risk factors:male,tumor diameter ＞1.0 cm,multifocal cancer,extrathyroidal extention,≥ 3 positive nodes in central neck and upper lobe cancer.

Objective To investigate the related factors of central regional lymph node metastasis (CLNM) in patients with papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC).Methods The clinical and pathological fea tures of 550 cases of PTMC with clinical lymph node negative (cN0) were retrospectively analyzed.x2 test and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the related factors of CLNM.ROC curve was used to analyze tumor diameter and CLNM of PTMC.Results The CLNM rate was 35.6％.Univariate analysis showed that patients aging less than 45 y(x2=13.983,P＜0.001),with tumor diameter≥7 mm (x2=14.263,P＜0.001),with capsule invasion (x2=7.316,P=0.006),multifocality (x2=14.321,P＜0.05) and bilateral tumors (x2=9.265,P=0.002) were more likely to have CLNM.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age ＜45 y,tumor diameter ≥7 mm,invasion of capsule and multifocal are all independent risk factors of CLNM for patients with PTMC.The optimal cutoff value of CLNM by diameter was 8 mm.Conclusion The CLNM of PTMC is related to many factors.When the age of the patient is less than 45 y,the diameter of the tumor is more than 7 mm,the invasion of the capsule and the multifocal lesion,the central lymph node dissection should be performed.

Objective To explore the influencing factors of weight gain in women with schizophrenia after treatment.Methods From January 2016 to December 2016,180 patients with schizophrenia who admitted to the Second People′s Hospital of Lishui for the first time and were treated with antipsychotics (APD) were followed up at hospital and 4 months after discharge.The height,weight and body mass index were observed.The joint general situation questionnaire,brief psychiatric scale(BPRS),negative symptoms(SANS),positive symptom scale(SAPS) and the clinical curative effect overall rating scale subscales of overall curative effect (CGI-GI) were comprehensively evaluated.The data were analyzed statistically.Results The weight gain was related to the type of antipsychotics (χ2＝37.3,P＜0.01),and the effect of aripiprazole and ziprasidone on body weight was significantly less than that in the case of weight(χ2＝31.1,P＜0.01).Single factor analysis showed that a medication time correlation (F＝4.92,P＜0.05),and each point GⅠscore had no correlation with weight gain,and weight gain was associated with BPRS,SAPS subtraction score at discharge (r＝0.079,0.092,all P＜0.01),and during follow-up weight gain was correlated with SANS score reduction (r＝-0.063,-0.086,P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Stepwise regression analysis showed that at the alpha＝0.05 level,entered the regression equation factors in the order : APD types,maximum doses and taking the product of time,the negative symptoms,the best functional level at 1 year before disease.Conclusion It is important to control the weight gain of young women.The mediating role of diet and activity should not be underesti-mated.Appropriate APD was chosen to adjust the maintenance treatment strategy as appropriate,improve the negative symptoms and improve the level of individual social function as the main intervention measure .

Objective:To investigate the in vitro anti-cancer effect of Vinorelbine (NVB) combined with adriamycin (PLD) on human breast cancer MCF-7 cells and related mechanisms.Methods:The effects of NVB and PLD alone or in combination on the proliferation of breast cancer cells were detected by CCK-8 experiment. Flow cytometry was used to detect cell apoptosis and changes in reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. Western blot experiment was carried out to detect protein expression.Results:The results of CCK-8 showed that compared with the blank control group, the inhibition rates of the vinorelbine treatment group, the adriamycin treatment group and the combined treatment group were 27.6%, 31.2% and 65.4%, compared with the NVB group and PLD group, the difference between the combined treatment group was statistically significant ( P=0.005 vs 0.001) . The results of flow cytometry showed that the proportion of apoptotic cells in each group was 3.54%, 16.95%, 15.01% and 32.24%, compared with the NVB group and PLD group, the difference between the combined treatment group was statistically significant ( P=0.006 vs 0.005) . The levels of reactive oxygen species in each group were 1, 1.03, 1.06 and 1.57, compared with the NVB group and PLD group, the difference between the combined treatment group was statistically significant ( P=0.008 vs 0.007) . Western blot results showed that the expression of p-ERK and p-STAT3 decreased after the combination of NVB and PLD, which inhibited the ERK/STAT3 signaling pathway. Conclusions:The combination of NVB and PLD can promote the apoptosis of breast cancer cells and inhibit the proliferation of breast cancer cells with high efficiency and low toxicity. Its mechanism of action may be related to the up-regulation of ROS levels in cells, thereby inhibiting the activation of the ERK/STAT3 pathway.
