Objective To investigate the efficacy of autologous peripheral hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in the treatment of adult dermatomyositis. Methods A 21-year-old patient with dermatomyositis received autologous peripheral hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and was followed up for 6 years. Autologous peripheral hematopoietic stem cells were mobilized by recombinant human granulocyte colony stimulating factor (rhG-CSF) before the transplantation, and the conditioning regimens consisted of cyclophosphamide,methylprednisolone and cyclosporin. Rabbit anti-human T lymphocyte immunoglobulin began to be applied on day 3 after retransfer of stem cells. The improvement in symptoms, physical signs and biochemical indicators was observed, and hematopoietic restructuration and immunity resurrection were evaluated after the transplantation. Results After the transplantation, skin eruption greatly improved and gradually subsided. The muscle force of extremities restored from level Ⅳ before transplantation to level Ⅴ. The level of creatine kinase declined sharply after transplantation, but gradually returned to previous level. Leucocyte count began to decrease on the day of retransfer, and returned to the normal level on day 8. Immune function remained normal before and after the transplantation. Conclusion Autologous peripheral hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is an alternative treatment for severe and refractory dermatomyositis.

Knee osteoarthritis is one of the common type of arthropathy, the clinical stage of the typical patients belongs to the middle-late stage, so it urges to improve the early diagnosis. At present, magnetic resonance imaging is most used in clinical diagnosis of knee osteoarthritis, and with the development of different MRI sequences, the sequences of early articular cartilage lesions are used in clinic. In the early diagnosis of knee osteoarthritis, the simple and practical methods such as ultrasonography is becoming a trend, and the specific biomarkers of early knee osteoarthritis have become the hot research. This overview article outlined the methods of early diagnosis from the ultrashort echo time MRI, ultrasonography and biomarkers.

Objective To explore the characteristics of pathogenic bacteria and risk factors for stroke‐associated pneumonia (SAP) in senile patients in order to privide basis for early clinical intervention .Methods A retrospective study was carried out to review the clinical data of 689 SAP patients treated at a university hospital between January 1 ,2011 and December 12 ,2013 . The pathogens from sputum and their antibiotic resistance profiles were analyzed .Multivariate Logistic regression model was used to screen relevant factors for stroke‐associated pneumonia (SAP) in a case‐control analysis at 1∶1 ratio .Results Of the 684 bacterial strains isolated from sputum , 545 (79 .7% ) were gram‐negative bacteria . The top bacterial species were Pseudomonasaeruginosa,Klebsiellapneumoniae,Acinetobacterbaumannii,and Enterobacterspp.Gram‐negativebacteria were highly resistant to most of the antimicrobial agents . About 31 .8% of the Acinetobacter strains were resistant to imipenem .A total of 139 (20 .3% ) gram‐positive strains were isolated . Staphylococcus aureus was the most frequently isolated gram‐positive pathogen (51 .8% ) , of which 63 .9% were resistant to methicillin (MRSA) .Most gram‐positive bacteria were sensitive to vancomycin , teicoplanin and linezolid . Multivariate Logistic regression suggested that age ( OR = 5 .632 ) , NIH stroke scale (NIHSS) score (OR= 4 .126) ,dysphagia (OR= 3 .481) , totally bedridden (OR=3 .431) ,mechanical ventilation (OR=4 .214) ,hyperglycemia (OR=2 .076) ,hypoalbuminemia (OR=2 .008) ,and high serum cortisol (OR=1 .825) were the major risk factors for SAP in senile patients .Conclusions Multiple antibiotic‐resistant pathogens are usually identified in the senile SAP patients .Early intervention to control the risk factors of SAP is important for prevention of SAP in senile patients .

Objective To investigate the effect of autophagy in radiosensitivity of nasopharyngeal carcinoma CNE-2 cells.Methods The expression of ATG5 in CNE-2 cells was inhibited by lentiviral mediated RNA interference.The cells were divided into three groups:control group,NC group and ATG5 group.Cell proliferation,apoptosis and radiosensitivity were detected by CCK-8 method,flow cytometry and colony-forming assay,respectively.Results Compared with the NC group and control group,the survival of ATG5-interfected cells was reduced (F =3.755,46.086,8.609,44.160,P < 0.05).After 6 Gy X-ray irradiation,the apoptosis index of the ATG5 group significantly higher than that of NC group and control group (F =394.876,P < 0.05).In addition,the radiosensitivity of ATG5 group was also higher than that of control cells.Conclusions Suppression of autophagy activity enhances the radiosensitivity of human nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells.

Objective To evaluate the effect of the conspecific bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) infusion on the platelets count and the ratio of CD4+ CD25highCD127low regulatory T (Treg) cells in mice with immune thrombocytopenia and the mechanisms.Method ITP mice models were induced by daily intraperitoneal injection of 200 μL phosphate buffer solution [containing 2 μg rat anti-platelet membrane CD41 antibody (MWReg30)] into female Balb/c mice.MSCs were got from male mice.Then different number of MSCs was injected into ITP mice through the tail veins.After 5,7 and 14 days,the number of blood platelets was counted and the ratio of Treg cells was detected by flow cytometry,and compared with those in the healthy mice.Result Twenty-four h after injection of CD41 antibody,platelet counts were reduced sharply to the lowest point,which was about a quarter of the normal level.Then ITP mice models were induced successfully.Platelet counts were increased after the injection of MSCs.On 7th day after injection of MSCs,the platelet counts were significantly higher than those in control mice,and the greater the degree of injection dosage,the greater the elevated platelets (P<0.05 for all).The ratio of Treg cells in ITP mice models was significantly lower than in the normal mice.The ratio of peripheral blood Treg cells in ITP mice was increased after injection of MSCs and the higher the dose,the greater the effect (P<0.05 for all) but did not reach the normal level.Conclusion The conspecific bone marrow MSCs infusion can increase the platelet counts in mice with ITP,which may be related to the increase of CD4+ CD25highCD127low Treg cells.
