Chinese Journal of Gastroenterology 2017;22(6):374-376
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a group of intestinal chronic non-specific inflammatory disease with unknown etiology, and includes ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn''s disease (CD).Studies have indicated that environmental factor, genetic factor, disorder of immunity are associated with the pathogenesis of IBD.More and more basic and clinical studies focus on treatment with helminths in IBD.The accumulated evidences have shown that helminths infection has beneficial effects on the alleviation of IBD and is relatively safe.This article reviewed the advances in study on helminths in the treatment of IBD.

Objective To investigate the immunological pathogenesis of Kawasaki disease( KD)through examination of changes in the expression of suppressors of cytokine signaling 1(SOCS1)and SOCS3,helper T cells and CD4 + CD25 + regulatory T cells(CD4 + CD25 + Treg)in peripheral blood from children with acute KD. Methods Six-teen children[10 boys,6 girls,aged 1 - 2 years old,averaged(1. 6 ± 0. 3)years old]in the acute phase of KD(KD group),16 children[9 boys,7 girls,aged 1 - 3 years old,averaged(1. 5 ± 1. 1)years old]with pneumonia(pneumo-nia group)and 8 normal children[5 boys,3 girls,aged 1 - 5 years old,averaged(2. 0 ± 1. 1)years old]of the same age(normal control group)from the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University who were admitted from October 2012 to March 2013 were recruited. The mRNA levels of SOCS1 and SOCS3 in the T cells from peripheral blood were examined by way of reverse transcription - polymerase chain reaction(RT - PCR). Interferon - γ( IFN - γ),interleukin - 4 (IL - 4)and CD4 + CD25 + Treg were quantified by means of fluorescence activated cell sorting(FACS). Results The expressions of SOCS1 and SOCS3,the percentage of IL - 4 T cells observed in the peripheral blood of the pneumonia group were similar to the normal control group(P ﹥ 0. 05),but significantly decreased in the percentage of INF - γ and the level of CD4 + CD25 + Treg(t = 3. 71,12. 81,all P ﹤ 0. 05). Compared to the normal control group and the pneumo-nia group,the expressions of SOCS1 and SOCS3,the percentage of INF - γ and IL - 4 T cells decreased significantly in the peripheral blood of the KD group(t = 2. 27,4. 48,17. 64,2. 73,2. 74,1. 25,2. 36,2. 59,all P ﹤0. 05 ). On the other hand,the level of CD4 + CD25 + Treg in the peripheral blood of the KD group was markedly lower than that in the normal control group(t =7. 70,P ﹤0. 05),but similar to the pneumonia group(P ﹥0. 05). Conclusions The function of helper T cells is inhibited in acute KD. The CD4 + CD25 + Treg may be involved in the immunological pathogenesis of KD.

Objective To investigate the protein and gene expression of bcl-2, bcl-6 in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Methods 73 cases of DLBCL were selected for study using the Envision immunohistochemistry method with a panel of antibodies CD3, CD10, CD20, bcl-6, bcl-2, MUM-1. The bcl-2gene expression in 57 of 73 cases with chromosome translocation t (14; 18), breakage and amplification of 3q27 chromosome in 54 of 73 cases were detected by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) method. Results The percentages of tumor cells expressing CD10, bcl-6, MUM-1, bcl-2 were separately 15.1%, 38.4 %, 71.2 %, 79.2 %. t (14;18) chromosomes were detected in 16 of 57 cases (28.1%). The expression of bcl-2 protein have significantly correlated with immunophenotype subtype (P=0.035), and t (14;18) was significantly correlated with the prognosis (P=0.045). There were no association between the expression of bcl-2 protein and t (14;18)(P=0.710). 11 of 54 cases were presented with 3q27 chromosomal breakage (20.4 %), and 14 cases were chromosomal amplification (25.9 %). The prognosis of cases with positive bcl-6 protein was better than that with negative protein obviously. There was no relationship between bcl-6 and 3q27 chromosomal breakage or amplification (P=1.000). Conclusion The expression of bcl-2, bcl-6 protein and gene were different events and had the different significance on DLBCL. The expression of bcl-2 protein was a prognostic marker correlated with immunophenotype subtype, and GCB type with the positive expression of bcl-2 protein had the poor prognosis. Conversely, t(14;18) was an independent event for the prognosis, and the positive expression have the poor prognosis. Patients who require the target therapy should be detected for the t(14;18). The expression of bcl-6 protein was beneficial to the judgment of DLBCL prognosis, it could be an independent factor of the prognosis. 3q27 chromosomal breakage may be a hint to the poor prognosis.

Teaching and research section of orthodontics of the Affiliated Hospital of Stomatology of Chongqing Medical University took the lead in carrying out ‘ three early education' Students of stomatology in Chongqing Medical University established ‘ social practice volunteer team' and conducted ‘ three early education' in orthodontic clinic during winter,summer holiday and weekend.This let students of low grades contact with society,clinical practice and scientific research at early stage thus to comprehensively improve their overall quality.Questionnaire for student volunteers of the Affiliated Hospital of Stomatology of Chongqing Medical University showed that ‘ three early education' can effectively improve medical students' comprehensive quality.In the early stages of learning for students of stomatology,we cultivated students' occupation spirit,innovation consciousness,scientific literacy,clinical thinking and teamwork ability by strengthening training of students' social practice ability,communication ability,organization and coordination ability,professional interests,professional senses of belonging,team spirit and moral emotion.We achieved certain results and our experiences are worth extending.

Objective:To explore the impact of clinical pharmacists involved in the treatment team on the reasonable drug use rate in medical orders. Methods:Totally 782 medical records including hypertension and 1-3 kinds of hypertension associated diseases in our hospital from January 2011 to December 2011 were used as the pre-intervention group, and 1 061 ones with the same conditions from September 2012 to August 2013 were used as the post-intervention group. The patients of the two groups were divided into 8 dis-ease subgroups, clinical pharmacists performed timely intervention on the medical orders in the post-intervention group, and the rational drug use rate between the two groups was compared. Results:In hypertension, hypertension associated coronary heart disease, hyper-tension with heart failure and hypertension with diabetes subgroups,the difference in the rational drug use proportion before and after the intervention was statistically significant(P<0. 01), in hypertension with coronary heart disease and heart failure, hypertension associ-ated coronary heart disease and diabetes, hypertension with heart failure and diabetes subgroup, the difference in the rational drug use proportion before and after the intervention was statistically significant(P<0. 05), while in hypertension with coronary heart disease, heart failure and diabetes subgroups, the difference was not statistically significant(P>0. 05). After the medical records in the 8 sub-groups were aggregated, the difference in the rational drug use proportion before and after the intervention was statistically significant( P<0. 01). Conclusion:Clinical pharmacists should involve in the clinical treatment to intervene irrational drug use,which can signifi-cantly improve the medical record rationality, avoid the health risks as much as possible and ensure the medication safety and treatment effectiveness for patients.
