OBJECTIVE To discuss the clinical traits,pathogenesis and TCM stepwise treatments of fungal urinary tract infection.METHODS According to the risk factors and clinical character of fungal urinary tract infection,we clarified the mechanism of the disease.The principal aspect was spleen-kidney vacuity detriment and the secondary incidental was accumulated damp-heat and static blood in the lower burner,viz weaken healthy qi and excessive pathogenic factor.Hence during the clinical treatment we should regulate faculty condition.In the acute infection period we should give priority to dispel evils supplemented by the recovery of right qi.In the convalescence we should pay more attention to support right supplemented by dispelling.RESULTS The most common pathogen of fungal urinary tract infection was Candida albicans.The TCM stepwise treatments of fungal urinary tract infection together with regulatiy entire faculty condition had the characteristics of high efficacy and few side effects.CONCLUSIONS The TCM stepwise treatments of fungal urinary tract infection has more potentiality which deserves further study.

Objective To assess the perioperative hidden blood loss in aged patients with femoral intertrochanteric fracture.Methods Clinical data of 243 patients (111 males and 132 females) with intertrochanteric fracture admitted from 2009 September to 2015 September were retrospectively reviewed.Two hundred and seventeen patients aged 60-98 years received surgical treatment and 26 patients aged 62-91 years received conservative treatment (non-surgical group).In surgical group,17 cases were operated within 1 d after fracture,71 within 3 d,73 within 7 d,31 within 14 d,and 25 cases were operated after 14 d.Hidden blood loss was evaluated and blood routine was tested.Results The hidden blood loss was (340 ± 216) ml in non-surgical patients,(602 ± 216) ml in patients operated after 14 d,(671 ± 327) ml in patients operated 8-14,(596 ± 362) ml in patients operated 4-7 d,and (505 ± 119) ml in patients operated 2-3 d,(498 ± 244) ml in patients operated within 1 d;there was significant difference among groups (F =14.758,P =0.001).The hemoglobin level in non-surgical group was (121.8 ± 17.6) g/Lwithin 1 d after fracture,(101.1 ±23.3) g/L on 1-3 d,(91.5 ±31.9) g/L on4-7 d,(92.2 ±31.6) g/L on 8-14 d,and (108.3 ± 22.4) g/L after 14 d;there was statistically significant among groups (F =12.457,P =0.001).Conclusions Hemoglobin level in elderly patients with femoral intertrochanteric fracture is dynamically changed,and reaches the lowest point within 1-2 weeks after injury;and operation is an important factor of hidden blood loss in femoral intertrochanteric fracture patients.

Lipase gene from Penicillium expansum(lip07) was cloned and over-expressed in Pichia pastoris.a random mutant named ep8,which contained a single amino acid substitution,was obtained by using the lip07 as an error-prone PCR template in previous study.ep8 shows higher thermostability than that of lip07,To further improve the thermostability of the lipase,the Lys of wild-type(lip07) and mutant(ep8) in 202 were substituted by Ala using the Overlap extension PCR technique respectively.The mutant genes(lip07-K202A and ep8-K202A) were subcloned into pAO815,and then transformed into the Pichia pastoris GS115 for extracelluar expression,respectively.15% SDS-PAGE analysis indicated that the molecular mass of PEL-ep8-K202A and PEL-lip07-K202A are both about 28kDa,which is same with the wild-type lipase.The Tm of PEL-ep8-K202A is 41.66℃,2.63℃ higher than that of the wild-type(39.03℃) and 1.21℃ higher than the random mutant(PEL-ep8:40.45℃);the Tm of single mutant(PEL-lip07-K202A) is 37.08℃,2℃ lower than that of the wild-type lipase.

BACKGROUND: Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) can result in intestinal mucosal barrier (IMB) dysfunction. This study was undertaken to demonstrate the effect of IGF-I on the intestinal mucosal barrier in rats with SAP and its possible mechanisms. METHODS: Seventy-two male Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups: a sham operation (SO group,n=24), a SAP group not treated with IGF-I (SAP group,n=24), and a SAP group treated with IGF-I (IGF-I group,n=24). SAP was induced in the rats by injecting 5.0％ sodium taurocholate into the biliary-pancreatic duct. The SO rats were given an infusion of normal saline instead. The rats in the IGF-I group underwent the SAP procedure and were given a subcutaneous injection of IGF-I at 30 minutes before the operation and at 3 hours after the operation. Eight rats in each group were sacrificed at 6, 12 and 24 hours after operation. Apoptosis of mucosal cells in the small intestine was determined by TUNEL. The levels of endotoxin and DAO and serum amylase were also measured. Pathologic changes in the small intestine were monitored. Changes of bax and bcl-2 mRNA expression in the small intestine were determined by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). RESULTS: The levels of serum amylase were lower in the IGF-I group than in the SAP group at all three time points (P<0.05). The levels of endotoxin in the IGF-I group were higher than those in the SAP group at 6 hours, but lower in the IGF-I group than in the SAP group at 12 and 24 hours (P<0.05). The levels of diamine oxidase were higher in the IGF-I group at 6 hours but lower than those in the SAP group at 12 and 24 hours. The pathological score of the small intestine was lower in the IGF-I group than in the SAP group, and the difference was statistically significant at 12 and 24 hours. The pathologic changes observed under electron microscopy were better in the IGF-I group than those in the SAP group. The apoptosis index of intestinal epithelial cells was significantly decreased in the IGF-I group compared with the SAP group. Compared with the SO group, the mRNA expression levels of bax were increased at each time point in the SAP group, and were significantly decreased in the IGF-I group as compared with the SAP group at each time point (P<0.05). The expression levels of bcl-2 were weak and not different between the SO group and the SAP group (P>0.05). They were significantly increased in the IGF-I group versus the SO and SAP groups (P<0.05). The ratio of bax and bcl-2 mRNA expression levels at each time point in the SAP group were significantly higher than those in the SO group, but they were obviously decreased in the IGF-I group. CONCLUSIONS: Exogenous IGF-I seems to protect mucosal cells in the small intestine against SAP-induced apoptosis and could alleviate SAP-induced injury of the intestinal mucosa. The underlying mechanisms include enhanced mRNA expression of bcl-2 and inhibition of bax mRNA expression.

OBJECTIVETo establish osteoblast model, primary cilla model was removed by chloral hyrate, observe effects of osteoblast primary cilla moved on enhancing ALP staining and calcified nodules staining in electromagnetic field.

METHODSThree 3-day-old male SD rats weighed between 6 and 9 g were killed, cranial osteoblast was drawed and adherencing cultured respectively. Cells were subcultured and randomly divided into 4 groups until reach to fusion states. The four groups included chloral hydrate non-involved group (control group), 2 mM, 4 mM and 8 mM chloral hydrate group, and cultured in 37 °C, 5% CO2 incubator for 72 h. Morphology of primary cilla was observed by laser confocal scanning microscope, and incidence of osteoblast primary cilia was analyzed by Image-Pro Plus 6.0 software. Cells in the correct concentration group which can removed cillia most effectively were selected and divided into 3 groups, including control group (C), Electromagnetic fields group (EMFs), and EMFs with 4 mM chloral hydrate group. DMEM nutrient solution contained 10%FBS were added into three groups and cultured for 9 days and formation of ALP were observed by histochemical staining of alkaline phosphatase. After 12 days' cultivation, formation of mineralization nodes was observed by alizarin red staining.

RESULTSCompared with control group and 2mM chloral hydrate group,4 mM chloral hydrate group could effectively remove osteoblast primary cilla (P<0.01). Removal of osteoblast primary cilla could weaken the formation of ALP and mineralization nodes in osteoblast in EMFS. Compared with EMFs group, the area of ALP and mineralization nodes in EMFs with 4 mM chloral hydrate group were decreased obviously (P<0.01).

CONCLUSION4mM chloral hydrate could effectively remove osteoblast primary cilia. Primary cilla participate in EMFs promoting formation of ALP and mineralization nodes in osteoblast and provide new ideas for exploring mechanism of EMFs promoting osteoblast maturation and mineralization.
