Objective:To explore the effect of bifidobacterium tetravaccine tablets combined with low-dose erythromycin on the efficacy and motilin (MTL) levels in the treatment of children with functional dyspepsia (FD).Methods:One hundred and fifty children with FD admitted to Shanghai Public Health Clinical Center from January 2019 to June 2020 were selected and were divided into two groups by random number table, with 75 cases in each group. The control group was treated with bifidobacterium tetravaccine tablets, and the observation group was treated with low-dose erythromycin on the basis of control group. The clinical efficacy and the disappearance time of the clinical symptoms of the two groups were compared. The changes in the frequency of gastric antrum contraction (ACF), the amplitude of gastric antrum contraction (ACA), the gastric antral movement index (MI) were detected by ultrasonic developing-out unit before and after treatment. The levels of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), nitric oxide (NO), gastrin (GAS) and MTL were detected before and after the treatment using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. The incidence of adverse reactions was counted. The recurrence rate was recorded after 6 months of the treatment.Results:The total effective rate in the observation group was higher than that in the control group:93.33% (70/75) vs. 78.67% (59/75), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 6.700, P<0.05). The disappearance time of symptoms of nausea and vomiting, loss of appetite, abdominal distension, and abdominal pain in the observation group were shorter than those in the control group: (2.58 ± 0.45) d vs. (3.22 ± 0.68) d, (3.56 ± 0.62) d vs. (4.10 ± 0.70) d, (2.54 ± 0.46) d vs. (3.24 ± 0.69) d, (2.66 ± 0.56) d vs. (3.40 ± 0.67) d, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The levels of ACF, ACA and MI in the observation group after the treatment were higher than those in the control group: (4.32 ± 0.90) times/min vs. (3.58 ± 0.83) times/min, (0.34 ± 0.12) vs. (0.30 ± 0.10) mm, (1.33 ± 0.42) vs. (1.14 ± 0.30), and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The levels of 5-HT and NO in the observation group after the treatment were lower than those in the control group: (164.77 ± 30.34) mg/L vs. (184.45 ± 28.90) mg/L, (38.27 ± 10.20) mmol/L vs. (46.54 ± 9.48) mmol/L; and the levels of GAS and MTL were higher than those in the control group: (115.23 ± 15.70) ng/L vs. (98.50 ± 14.29) ng/L, (266.67 ± 32.76) ng/L vs. (238.40 ± 28.97) ng/L, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The treatment of pediatric FD with bifidobacterium tetravaccine tablets combined with low-dose erythromycin can significantly improve the efficacy, quickly improve the clinical symptoms of children, promote physical recovery, and regulate MTL levels to improve gastric motility. The recurrence rate is low.

Objective To investigate the expressions of cell phenotypes CD_8 and CD_(28) of peripheral blood lymphocytes in patients with colorectal cancer. Method CD_8 and CD_(28) of cell phenotypes were measured by flow cytometry in 50 patients with colorectal cancer (cancer group) and 30 nontumorous patients (control group). Results The expression of CD_8 in cancer group was significantly higher than that in control group [(32.24±8.38)% vs (22.18±7.55)%](P < 0.01). CD_(28) and CD_8~+/CD_(28)~+ were much lower than those in control group [(52.03±10.94)% vs (60.60±7.98)%,12.18±4.28 vs 16.38±4.94](P<0.01). CD_8~+/CD_(28)~+ in Dukes D stage patients were significantly lower than that in Dukes B stage patients (P<0.05). CD_(28) and CD_8~+/CD_(28)~+ in lymph node metastasis patients were much lower than those in lymph node negative patients (P < 0.01). CD_(28) and CD_8~+/CD_(28)~+ in serosa involved patients were lower than those in no serosa involved patients (P < 0.01). Conclusions The expressions of cell phenotypes CD_8 and CD_(28) of peripheral blood lymphocytes in patients with colorectal cancer are closely related to biological characteristics of the tumor. The assays of cell phenotypes CD_8 and CD_(28) might be useful for evaluating the immunal statement and prognosis of patients with colorectal cancer.

ObjectiveTo investigate the delineation of gross tumor volume (GTV) in locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (LANC) according to imageological changes before and after induction chemotherapy (IC) in order to decrease high dose area and protect normal tissue better.MethodsBetween Mar 2010 to Jan 2011,11 patients with LANC were enrolled and treated with TPF regimen followed by intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) with concurrent chemotherapy,target volumes were delineated based on fused CT imaging before and after IC following project determination.Tumor target volumes after and before IC were respectively delineated according to imaging tumor residues and were overlaid by CTVnx in order to ensure radical doses for the imaging tumor volume before IC,the resulting differences of tumor target volumes of IC before and after were measured and analyzed by paired t-test.ResultsBefore and after IC,the average volumes of GTVnx were respectively 44.72 cm3 and 28.87 ( t =3.89,P =0.003 ),the average volumes of GTVnd were respectively 32.76 cm3 and 19.82 cm3 ( t =2.47,P =0.033 ),the volumes of maximum dose area in brainstem and spinal cord as well as eyeball decreased ( t =2.93-4.59,all P ＜0.05).ConclusionsLANC treated by 3 cycle TPF regimen followed by IMRT with concurrent chemotherapy showes significant shrinkage of tumor volume.The volume of high dose region which caused by normally recovered tissues were decreased by re-delineation of target volume in brainstem and spinal cord as well as eyeball of CT images after IC.

Objective To investigate the relationship between 4G/5G polymorphism in the promotor of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) gene and pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE). And to detect whether it plays an important role in the pathogenesis of PTE. Methods The 76 patients with PTE, 74 gender and age matched healthy controls were recruited in this study. Genome DNA was extracted from whole blood using phenol-chloroform. Subjects were genotyped for the 4G/ 5G polymorphism of PAI-1 gene using polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis. Results Significant difference was found in the frequency of 4G/4G genotype between PTE group and control group (50.0% vs.24.3%,P<0.01). And there were no significant differences in 4G/5G and 5G/5G genotype between the two groups. The 4G allele frequency was higher in PTE group than in control group (72.4% vs. 55.4% , P<0.01) . The recessive allele model was informative and the odd ratio of 4G/4G genotype was much higher than of other two genotypes (OR=3.40, P<0.01). Further stratification showed 4G/4G genotype was associated with high risk of PTE for those individuals without traditional environment risk factors. Conclusions The 4G/5G polymorphism of PAI-1 gene is associated with PTE and 4G allele is recessive. 4G/4G genotype increases the risk of PTE for individuals who have no traditional risk factors of PTE.

Objective To study the general shape of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) insertion in rabbits and establish an animal model of ACL reconstruction using oval tunnels.Methods Eighteen mature white New Zealand rabbits were used in this study.Eight of them were used for anatomy study and the other 10 were for building an animal model.After removal of the medial femoral condyle and other soft tissues around ACL,the morphology of the ACL insertion was examined and the diameter of ACL insertions was measured using a caliper.An oval-tunnel dilator (1.6 mm×2.5 mm) was designed to make an oval-tunnel in the right knee of the rabbits while a round tunnel was drilled using a 2 mm diameter Kirschner wire in the left knee of the rabbits.Their hamstring tendon grafts were harvested as grafts for both sides and the compatibility between the bone tunnel and graft was examined for both groups.Right after the surgery,the knees of both sides were given the three-dimensional CT scan.Results The shape of ACL insertion of rabbits was oval.In the femur side,the average major and minor diameter of the ACL insertion was 5.28 ± 0.83 mm and 2.61 ± 0.33 mm respectively.In the tibial side,the major and the minor diameter of the ACL insertion was 5.33 ± 0.40 mm and 2.68 ±0.11 mm.The bone tunnel was compatible with the graft in both groups.In the oval tunnel ACL reconstruction group,the cross sectional area of the femoral bone tunnel was 3.18 ± 0.09 mm2 and the cross sectional area of the tibial bone tunnel was 3.26 ± 0.15 mm2.In the round tunnel ACL reconstruction group,the corresponding measurements were 3.13 ± 0.10 mm2 and 3.11 ± 0.11 mm2 respectively.There was no significant difference between the two groups.Conclusion The shape of ACL insertion in rabbits is oval.Using the self-made oval tunnel dilator we have successfully built an oval tunnel ACL reconstruction animal model with a good compatibility between the bone tunnel and graft.This lays the foundation for further research in the future.

Objective To study the gene mutation of a Chinese family with Alport syndrome and to perform preimplantation genetic diagnosis before embryo implantation.Methods Next generation sequence analysis was done for checking COL4A3,COL4A4 and COL4A5 genes in the Alport syndrome family members.Array comparative genomic hybridization(CGH) was used to detect the embryos.Results A mutation c.2605G ＞ A was found and identified in COL4A5 gene of all of the Alport syndrome patients in the family,but COL4A3 and COL4A3 genes were normal in all of the detected people.After searching for the mutation database,the mutation c.2605G ＞ A of COL4A5 gene was related to the X-linked dominant Alport syndrome.Three embryos were detected by using the preimplantation genetic diagnosis.Among these embryos,there were two male and one female.One of the male embryos was chromosomal aneuploidy,which was 45,XY,-16 and the other was normal.This normal embryo was implanted,and after 20 weeks the prenatal amniocentesis diagnosis approved that the fetus was normal.Conclusions The mutation of COL4A5 gene (c.2605 G ＞ A) is the cause of Alport syndrome in this family,which indicates that next generation sequence analysis proves to be an accurate and rapid method to detect Alport syndrome disease.Meanwhile array CGH can be used to reduce birth rates as a useful preimplantation genetic diagnosis method.

Objective To investigate the correlation between XRCC1 R280H,XRCCl TSS+29C/T genetic polymorphisma and susceptibility to non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). Methods The MassARRAY method was applied to detect the DNA repair gene XRCC1 genetic polymorphisms in 73 cases of NHL and 540 cases of normal healthy controls. Chi-square test was performed to calculate the adjusted odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI). Results For XRCCl R280H genotypes, there was a significant difference between frequencies of the G and A among patients and controls (P=0.001). However, XRCCl TSS+29C/T genotypes had no statistical difference as for the T and C frequencies between patients and controls (P = 0.383). The frequency of XRCCI R280H with at least one A genotype was lower in the NHL cases than in controls, indicating a decreased risk for NHL development (OR=0.309, 95 % CI =0.168-0.567), comparing with GG genotype. In XRCC1 TSS+29C/T genotypes, the frequeney of TC and CC genotype was higher in NHL cases than in controls and associated with an increased risk of NHL development (P=0.472, OR =1.262, 95 % CI =0.669-2.379). Conclusion DNA repair XRCCl gene possesses significant correlation with NHL.
