Objective To discuss the changes of serum Th1/Th2 cytokine levels of allergic rhinitis patients and the intervention effect of montelukast.Methods 40 cases of allergic rhinitis patients were selected as treatment group,who were given montelukast tablets (10mg) through the mouth one time daily for 8 weeks.The changes of interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and interleukin-4 (IL-4) in peripheral blood (PB) before and after medical treatment were observed,as well as the clinical curative effect and security.Accordingly 30 cases of healthy people were also selected as the control group.Results The IFN-γlevel in culture supernatant of patients in the treatment group [(8.74 ± 1.37) ng/mL] was lower than that in the control group before the medical treatment [(15.13 ± 3.16)ng/mL],while the IL-4 level of patients in the treatment group [(1.64 ± 0.47) ng/mL] was higher than that in the control group [(0.72 ± 0.21) ng/mL] (t =2..93,3.52,all P < 0.01).After 8 weeks' medical treatment,the IFN-γ level in culture supernatant of patients [(12.36 ± 2.56) ng/mL] increased obviously than that of before [(8.74 ± 1.37) ng/mL],while the IL-4 level [(1.21 ± 0.28) ng/mL] declined obviously than that of before [(1.64 ± 0.47) ng/mL] (t =2.36,2.31,all P < 0.05).The total clinical efficiency of patients in the treatment group was 92.5 % (37/40).No serious drug adverse reaction (DAR) appeared during the medical treatment.Conclusion The Th1/Th2 cytokine unbalances in peripheral blood (PB) of allergic rhinitis patients.Montelukast has reliable curative effect with high security,whose mechanism of action has close effect on lowering the IL-4 in peripheral blood (PB),increasing the IFN-γ level in peripheral blood (PB),correcting the balance disorders of Th1/Th2 cytokine,and the transformation of immunity reaction from Th2 to Th1.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the bacteriological characteristics of nasal secretions of chronic rhinosinusitis(CRS)in our hospital,and conduct drug sensitivity test in order to provide theoretic reference for clinical treatment. METHODS:87 CRS patients underwent nasal endoscopic surgery were selected and the nasal secretions of patients were taken for bacterial culture. Automatic microbial analyzer was used to identify the bacteriological characteristics,and disk diffusion test was adopted for drug sensitivity test. RESULTS:Of 87 patients,bacterial strains were detected from 77 cases of nasal secretions,with positive rate of 88.5%. 112 strains were detected,including 81 strains of aerobic bacterium and 31 strains of anaerobic bacterium,and the most common bacterium were Staphylococcus aureus (20.54%). Antibiotics with the highest sensitivity was moxifloxacin (89.29%), followed by ciprofloxacin(87.50%),vancomycin(87.50%). CONCLUSIONS:The bacterial in nasal secretions of CRS patients has high positive detection rate and mainly are aerobic bacterium. Antibiotics should be used rationally according to the results of drug sensitivity test.

AIM:To explore the effect of CXCL16 deficiency on streptozocin ( STZ)-induced diabetic nephrop-athy in mice.METHODS:CXCL16 knockout ( C16 KO) mice (8 years old) were used to build up diabetes model by treating with STZ.Age-and gender-matched wild-type ( WT) C57BL/6J mice treated with STZ were used as control.All mice were fed with chow diets for 12 weeks, and the development of diabetic nephropathy was evaluated.RESULTS:Compared with the WT mice treated with STZ, C16 KO mice treated with STZ presented lower fasting glucose levels and better glucose tolerance power.C16 KO mice treated with STZ also had lower urine protein levels and smaller areas of glo-merular injury as compared with WT mice treated with STZ.Furthermore, CXCL16 deficiency decreased the contents of re-nal reactive oxygen species ( ROS) , malondialdehyde ( MDA) and oxidized low-density lipoprotein ( ox-LDL) and the mR-NA expression of lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor 1 (Lox-1), and attenuated the expression of renal in-flammatory factors including tumor necrosis factor α( TNF-α) and interleukin 6 ( IL-6) , as well as chemokines including intercellular cell adhesion molecular 1 (ICAM-1) and chemokine C-X-C motif ligand 1 (CXCL1).CONCLUSION:CX-CL16 deficiency obviously inhibits the development of STZ-induced diabetic nephropathy in mice.

Objective:
To prepare the monoclonal antibody against ankyrin repeat domain 22(ANKRD22)and to investigate its expression in colorectal cancer tissues.
Methods :
The recombinant human ANKRD22 was expressed through E. coli and pET-42a and then used to immunize Balb/c mice after purification. Anti-human ANKRD22 specific monoclonal antibodies were selected by Western blotting with 293T cell lysate highly expressing ANKRD22 as antigen. The expression of ANKRD22 in the tissue microarrays of 112 patients with colorectal cancer was detected by immunohistochemical staining.
Results :
Four specific monoclonal antibodies against human ANKRD22 were screened out of 93 hybridoma cells,which reacted well with natural human ANKRD22. ANKRD22 was mainly distributed in the cytoplasm of colorectal cancer cells. In 112 cases of colorectal cancer,94 cases were detected positive for ANKRD22 expression,with the positive rate of 83.93%. The expression of ANKRD22 was statistically correlated with the expression of p53 and β-catenin(P<0.05),but not with age,sex,location of tumors,AJCC stage,Dukes stage,degree of differentiation,lymph node metastasis and mismatch repair gene expression(P>0.05).
Conclusion
The expression level of ANKRD22 was high in colorectal cancer. ANKRD22 might be involved in the carcinogenesis of colorectal epithelium and be a potential diagnostic marker.

Objective To study the value of cooperative training for general hospital and community hospital based on network in improving the cancer pain management ability of community health care workers. Methods From January 2015 to May 2016, 60 community health workers were recruited as research subjects and randomly divided into experimental group and control group. The experimental group received the general hospital-community hospital cooperative network training, the control group accepted the traditional training methods. After the training, 180 cancer patients who were in the charge of the relevant community from June 2015 to December 2016 were selected as the study subjects. Patients in the control group and experimental group were randomly assigned to cancer pain management for 6 months. After 6 months, the pain management knowledge of two group nursing staff was compared. The NRSscores of two groups of patients, the satisfaction of medical staff and the quality of life of the patients were compared. Results In the aspect of cancer pain knowledge, the score of experimental group was significantly higher than that of control group (P<0. 05). In both groups, NRSscore of experimental group was significantly lower than that of control group (P<0. 05). The Chinese version of QLT-C30 V3. 0 in both groups showed that the experimental group was better than the control group(P<0. 05) except for three aspects: shortness of breath, diarrhea and economic difficulty (P>0. 05). Conclusion Cooperative training based on Internet can better improve cancer care management in community health care.
