The effect of colored noise on circadian oscillation and internal signal stochastic resonance(ISSR) has been studied in a Neurospora circadian clock system. The result shows that the correlation time of colored noise can affect strongly the strength of ISSR. For the case of no external signal(ES), the correlation time of colored noise plays a suppressive role for ISSR, and the suppressive role is increased with the increment of correlation time of colored noise. When the ES is injected to the system, with the increasing of the correlation time of colored noise, not only its suppressive role for ISSR is increased, but also the single peak ISSR can be transformed as internal single stochastic bi-resonance (ISSBR). There exists an optimal frequency of ES for the ISSR information amplification, while the ISSR is suppressed for another frequency of ES. In contrast to external colored noise, internal colored noise is more efficient to sustain and amplify the ISSR information. Furthermore, there exists a critical noise intensity for destroying the difference between white and colored noises.

Many surface proteins of Gram-positive bacteria are anchored to the cell wall by the action of sortase enzymes, a recently discovered family of cysteine transpeptidases. As the surface proteins of pathogens are frequently required for virulence, the sortase might be a suitable target for the development of anti-Gram-positive drugs. Recently, the mechanism and active sites of sortase was elucidated by the research of sortaseA(SrtA) in Staphylococcus aureus and a series of SrtA inhibitors have been identified for providing the basis for further development of potent inhibitors.

OBJECTIVE: To summarize the clinical datas of thepatients with invasive laryngeal fungal infections in, discuss pathogenesis and treatment methods. METHOD: Eleven cases of invasive laryngeal fmycosis who were collected from September 2006 to February 2010 with electronic laryngoscopy, aspirate smear and culture and tissue biopsy for pathological diagnosis, were restrospectively analyzed. Those patients were received iv fluconazole, treatment of Oxygen Atomization of amphotericin B solution and taking itraconazole orally. The hepatic and renal functions of the patients were monitored in the course of treatment. RESULT: All the cases were diagnosed of invasive laryngeal mycosis. 1 patient showed liver dysfunction in the second week during treatment. And continuing the treatment after using liver protection drugs. All symptoms of the patients were improved and no recurrence happened during the 1-6 years of follow-up. CONCLUSION Invasive laryngeal fmycosis was correlated with occupation exposure, abusing of antibiotics and low immunity. Laryngeal mycosis was Diagnosised mainly depended on the pathological examination. The positive rates of the secretion smear was low. The effects of iv fluconazole, Oxygen Atomization of amphotericin B 2-4 weeks, and 4 weeks of taking itraconazole orally were safety and reliable.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of enhanced immunosuppressive therapy in the treatment of refractory nephrotic syndrome (RNS). METHODS:Totally 76 RNS patients were selected from 2 hospitals during Jan. 2012-Mar. 2015,and then divided into control group and observation group according to random number table,with 38 cases in each group. Two groups were given Prednisone acetate tablet 50 mg,qd;decreasing to 15 mg,qd,after urine protein returned to normal. Based on it,control group was given Leflunomide tablets 50 mg,qd;decreasing to 20 mg,qd,3 days later. Based on con-trol group,observation group was additionally given Mycophenolate mofetil dispersible tablet 750 mg,bid;decreasing to 500 mg, qd,3 months later. Both groups were treated for 6 months. Clinical efficacies,follow-up recurrence rate as well as renal function in-dexes and inflammatory cell factors before and after treatment,and the occurrence of ADR were compared between 2 groups. RE-SULTS:The total response rate of observation group(92.11%)was significantly higher than control group(73.68%),and fol-low-up recurrence rate(5.26%)was significantly lower than control group(23.68%),with statistical significance(P<0.05). Be-fore treatment,there was no statistical significance in renal function indexes or inflammatory cell factors between 2 groups(P>0.05). After treatment,24 h urinary protein quantification,urinary IL-6 and IL-8 levels of 2 groups decreased significantly,while the content of serum protein increased significantly;the observation group was significantly better than the control group,with sta-tistical significance(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the content of serum creatinine between 2 groups before and after treatment(P>0.05). The incidence of ADR in the control group and the observation group was 34.21% and 44.74% respec-tively,without statistical significance between 2 groups(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Enhanced immunosuppressive therapy in the treatment of RNS can improve renal function,reduce inflammatory reaction and long-term recurrence risk,and have good therapeu-tic efficacy and safety.

Objective To report the clinical results of treatment of tarsometatarsal joint injuries by close reduction and percutaneous screw fixation. Methods From January 2003 to June 2005, 26 cases of tarsometatarsal joint injuries were treated with close reduction and percutaneous screw fixation. They were 13 cases of middle column injury, seven cases of medial-middle column injury and six cases of three-column injury according to Myerson’ s classification. Results In this series all the wounds healed primarily with a mean operative time of 40 min ( 30 to 70 min) and a mean incision length of 5 mm. A mean follow-up of 11.4 months (ranging from 6 to 17 months) revealed a mean score of 87 according to American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) midfoot scoring system. All the patients returned to normal daily life after a mean time of 5.3 months (3 to 11 months). Conclusions Tarsometatarsal joint injuries can be treated well by close reduction and percutaneous screw fixation with less operative lesion and lower incidence of soft tissue complications. Reduction of the middle column with screw insertion along the direction of the Lisfranc ligament is the key to reestablishment of the stability of the tarsometatarsal joint complex.

Objective To investigate the dynamic abnormality of colon and anorectum in elderly patients with chronic functional constipation(CFC). Methods Forty-two elderly patients with CFC and twenty elderly healthy controls were selected. Total and segmental colonic transit time(CTT) were assessed radiographically by using oral radiopaque markers. Eight-lead water perfusion pressure measurement system and balloon were used to test the pressure and the perception threshold values of anus and rectum. Results (1) Total colonic transit time (TCTT) and sigmoid-rectum transit time (SRTT) were (49.0±16.4) h and (20.1±13.5) h in elderly patients with CFC, which were significantly prolonged compared with the controls [(25.2±7.7) h and (7.8±4.1) h, t=6.16 and 3.97,both P<0.05]. (2) The pressure of anal canal during defecation was (39.6±15.7) mmHg in elderly patients with CFC and (17.6±9.3) mm Hg in controls (t=5.79, P

Objective To study the prognosis of polymyositis(PM) and dermatomyositis(DM) patients and its influence factors.Methods Sixty DM and 30 PM patients diagnosed according to the diagnostic criteria of Bohan and Peter in our hospital during 2000-2008 were used as study subjects.The patients were followed up till their death or to August 2009.Gender,age of disease onset,disease course,serum creatine kinase,interstitial lung disease,heart involvement,connective tissue disease(CTD),malignancies,and treatment with corticosteroids,immunoglobulin and immunosuppressive agents were assessed as predictive factors for the prognosis of patients.Characteristics of muscular biopsy from 20 cases were analyzed.Results The median age of the 90 patients(29 males and 61 females) was 51 years(range 6-74 years).The male and female ratio was 1∶2.The most commonly involved muscles were the proximal muscles of limbs(83.3%),followed by neck muscles(25.6%),laryngea pharyngeal muscles(12.2%) and masticatory muscles(2.2%).Among the 42 patients(46.7%)with lung disease,interstitial lung disease and hear involvement were found in 29(32.2%)and 13(14.4%)patients,respectively.Of the 13 patients complicated by connective tissue disease,DM and PM accompanying connective tissue disease were diagnosed in 9 and 4,respectively,and DM and PM accompanying malignancies were observed in 2 patients.Muscular or skin biopsy was performed for 23 patients,which showed typical inflammatory infiltration in 13,dermatomyositis in 3,and no significant lesion in 2 patients,respectively.Of the 18 patients who died during the follow-up,5(16.67%) and 13(21.67%) died of PM and DM,respectively.Seventy-two patients survived.Their 1-,5-,and 9-year survival rate was 90%,84.4%,and 80%,respectively.The complete and partial remission rate was 22.2% and 36.7%,respectively,with a relapse rate of 20%.Advanced age of disease onset(P=0.003 8),interstitial lung disease(P=0.011 3) and malignancies(P=0.004 9) were main causes of death.Malignancy(RR=6.34,P=0.001 2)was the factor for poor prognosis and long-term treatment with hormones and immunosuppressive agents is the protective factor for PM and DM.Conclusion Complete and partial remission can be achieved in 58.9% patients with DM and PM.Advanced age of disease onset,interstitial lung disease and malignancy are the factors for poor prognosis of such patients.Long-term treatment with corticosteroids and immunosuppressive agents are the protective factors.

The changes of cytochrome oxidase activity of retinal ganglion cell (RGC) caused by the artificial high intraocular pressure (HIOP) was presented in this paper. Normal saline was injected into the anterior chamber of the right eye of 36 rats. that resulted in an intraocular pressure up to 60 mmHg for 3 hours. The experimental rats were divided into 0-, 3- and 7-day groups according to their survival time. Both retinae of each rat were whole mounted on the same slide, the left one being used as control. Thirty-six pairs of retina were treated with the modified cytochrome oxidase (CCO) histochemical technique under similar conditions. The high CCO activity of RGC were counted. The extinction of the cytoplasm of RGC, which indicates the degree of CCO activity, was measured with microphotometer. As compared with the normal eyes, the high CCO activity RGC of experimental eyes were reduced significantly. It was found that the high CCO activity of RGC in the temporal side of retina has been reduced much more than that of the nasal side. However, the high CCO activity of RGC in 3- and 7-day groups were more than that of 0-day group, the extinction of CCO activity of RGC in 7-day group was lower than that of the 3-day group. These facts showed that the CCO activity might restore in various degrees followed by a longer survival time. This experiment emphasized the fact that the HIOP led to metabolic changes of RGC, which may be of value to the study of glaucoma.
