Objective To explore the clinical characteristics and treatment of Caroli′s disease in children.Methods The clinical data,laboratory examination and radiological feature of 8 children with Caroli′s disease between Feb.1998 and Dec.2007 were analyzed retrospectively.All children underwent CT and abdominal ultrasonogram.Results Five cases of the 8 children were male and 3 cases were female.The mean age was 6.3 years old.The cases′ history were from 5 days to 4 months.The clinical symptoms showed that 3 cases had hematemesis,5 cases had hepatosplenomegaly,and 1 case had fever and turbid urine.Of the total 8 cases,5 cases were hepatic fibrosis and liver cirrhosis and hepatosplenomegaly,3 cases were portal hypertension,and 1 case had cholangitis.The other 3 cases were simple types.One case had infantile polycystic kidney disease.Laboratory analysis revealed 2 cases had dysfunction of liver and 1 dysfunction of renal.The imaging characteristics showed multiplied irregular dilatation of the intrahepatic bile ducts in enlarged liver,with central dot sign on CT scan.One case presented enlarged gastroesophageal vein.The 8 cases undertook conservative treatment,with no surgery.Conclusions The symptoms of Caroli′s disease are highly variable.Caroli′s disease should be focused especially on children with abdominal pain and hepatomegaly.CT is important for diagnosis of Caroli′s disease at earlier stage.The disease can be conservatively treated,and(or) surgically operated.

Objective To study and analyze the clinical efficacy of zoledronic acid in the treatment of osteoporotic intertrochanteric fracture in elderly patients. Methods 100 elderly patients with osteoporotic unstable intertrochanteric fracture treated in our hospital from February 2014 to July 2016 were selected and randomly divided into the control group and the experimental group. There were 50 patients in each group. The control group received routine treatment (calcitonin), and the experimental group was treated with zoledronic acid.The clinical indicators of the two groups were compared and analyzed. Results After the corresponding treatment, the VAS scores of the experimental group and the control group were (0.36±0.42) and (0.34±0.40), and there was no statistical significance. The excellent rate of hip joint function was 82% in the control group, and the excellent and good rate of hip joint function in the experimental group was 80%, which was not statistically significant. In addition, there were no statistically significant differences in fracture healing time and complications between the two groups. After 1 years, the hip bone mineral density and the lumbar vertebral bone mineral density were (0.78±0.05) g/cm2, and (0.85±0.06) g/cm2 were significantly higher than those in the control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). Conclusion Zoledronic acid in the treatment of senile osteoporotic unstable intertrochanteric fracture clinical effect is remarkable,can increase bone mineral density in a large extent, the joint recovery had no effect, has clinical significance.

Ethnic medicine industry is facing many problems such as narrow market, exhaustion of resource, decline of ethnic medicine and no qualified successors. Sustainable development theory was utilized to analyse the elements and problems of ethnic medicine industry, and the counter measures were put forward to get rid of the predicament and to realize the sustainable development which depends on the ethnic medicine resources, national medicine, industrial policy, personnel training and modern technology. The development issues of ethnic medicine industry can be solved by the coordination of enterprise, government and public. Finally the ethnic medicine can provide better services for society.

OBJECTIVETo observe the effect of low molecular weight heparin calcium (LMWHC) combined Compound Danshen Injection (DI) on nephrotic syndrome patients with early onset severe preeclampsia.

METHODSTotally 80 nephrotic syndrome patients with early onset severe pre-eclampsia were randomly assigned to four groups voluntarily, i.e., Group A (22 cases, treated by magnesium sulfate), B (19 cases, treated by magnesium sulfate plus LMWHC), C (21 cases, magnesium sulfate plus DI), D (18 cases, magnesium sulfate plus LMWHC and DI). Umbilical arterial S/D ratios, amniotic fluid index (AFI), prolonged gestational age, placenta weight, neonatal weight, and Apgar score were compared among the four groups.

RESULTSCompared with before treatment in the same group, umbilical arterial S/D ratios decreased in the four groups (P <0. 05). AFI decreased in Group A, while it increased in Group B, C, and D (P<0. 05). Compared with Group A at the same time point, umbilical arterial S/D ratios decreased, and AFI increased in Group B, C, and D (P <0. 01 , P <0. 05). Prolonged gestational age and neonatal weight were increased in Group B, C, and D (P <0. 01, P <0. 05). Placenta weight were increased in Group B and D (P <0. 05). Apgar scores at 1 and 5 min were improved in Group D (P <0. 05). Compared with Group B and C at the same time point, umbilical arterial S/D ratios decreased, and AFI increased in Group D (P<0. 05). Compared with Group B, prolonged gestational age and placenta weight were decreased in Group C, but prolonged gestational age and placenta weight were increased in Group D (P <0.05). Compared with Group C, prolonged gestational age, placenta weight, and neonatal weight were increased in Group D (P <0. 05).

CONCLUSIONTreatment of nephrotic syndrome patients with early onset severe pre-eclampsia by LMWHC combined DI could prolong gestational ages, obviously improve prenatal outcomes, with better effect obtained than using any of them alone.

Objective The presence of alloreactive memory T cells in recipient is a critical handicap to achieve transplantation tolerance.To make a mouse model which mimics the present transplant patient is important for research at this subject.Thus,we developed a novel re-transplant model and compared the alloresponse in this model with that in the conventional memory T cellstransfer model (transfer control).Methods The re-transplant model was established via microsurgery and vessel cannula techniques,and the experiment was composed of three groups:the re- transplant group,memory T cell-transfer group (transfer control) and the conventional blank group (blank control).The research indexes included survival time of donor heart,rejection score of allograft,and detection of proliferation and differentiation of the alloreactive memory/effector T cells by by flow cytometry (FCM) and in vitro mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR).Results The median survival time of allograft in re-transplant recipients was significantly shortened compared to that of transfer control,but there was no significant difference in rejection score of graft between them (the score in retransplant group was the most intense of the three groups). Moreover, proliferation and differentiation of the alloreactive effector T cells were more intensive in re- transplant recipients than in the transfer control,which was confirmed by in vitro MLR and by FCM of the splenocytes for detecting CD44highCD62L-memory/effector phenotype cells.Conclusion The recall alloresponse in retransplantation is more intensive than that in memory-transfer setting and this re-transplant model is more close to the clinic situation than the memory-transfer model in rodents.
