Objective To study the changes of serum IFN -gamma,TNF alpha and IL -10 levels in ulcera-tive colitis and its relevance to helicobacter pylori infection.Methods 80 UC patients were selected as the research object,and 50 cases of 80 patients were in the activity stage of UC,30 patients were in remission.In the 50 patients with active UC:14 cases were mild,26 cases were moderate,and 10 cases were severe.30 healthy subjects were set as healthy controls.Detection of serum IFN -gamma,TNF alpha,IL -10 levels and Hp infection were made.Results The serum TNF alpha and IL -10 levels of the activity group were higher than those of the remission group and the control group,the difference was statistically significant[TNF alpha :(54.75 ±5.92)ng/L vs.(23.69 ±4.15)ng/L vs.(20.45 ±4.01)ng/L,F =36.79,P =0.000;IL -10 :(35.16 ±6.72)ng/L vs.(25.12 ±5.37)ng/L vs.(23.96 ± 5.21)ng/L,F =35.68,P =0.000],the serum IFN -gamma level of the activity group was lower than those of the remission group and the control group,the difference were statistically significant[(14.98 ±3.15)ng/L vs.(26.06 ± 4.31)ng/L vs.(27.16 ±4.39)ng/L,F =35.68,P =0.000].As the aggravating of patients with UC in activity stage,TNF alpha and IL -10 levels showed a trend of increase(F =32.81,24.95,all P <0.05),while IFN -gamma showed a trend of reduce(F =22.29,P <0.05).In 50 cases of active UC patients,18 patients with Hp positive, 32 cases were Hp negative.In active UC group Hp positive patients'serum TNF alpha and IL -10 levels higher than the Hp negative patients,the difference was statistically significant(t =4.62,4.35,all P <0.01).Serum levels of IFN-gamma of active UC patients with Hp positive group was lower than the Hp negative patients,the difference was sta-tistically significant(t =5.91,P <0.01).Conclusion In active UC patients expression of TNF alpha and IL -10 are high,and IFN -gamma expression is low.The expression of IFN -gamma,TNF alpha and IL -10 are closely related to Hp infection.

Objective To investigate the effect of recombinant intestinal trefoil factor(rITF)on the intestinal mucosa of acute necrotizing pancreatitis(ANP)rats and explore the mechanism.Methods 60 male SD rats were randomly divided into control group(n=20),ANP group(n=20),rITF group(n=20).ANP was induced by retrograde injection of 5%sodium taurocholate(100μl/100 g)into biliopancreatic duct.Rats in rITF group were injected with rITF(0.5 mg/100 g)before and after ANP induction.The rats in ANP group and control group received same amount of normal sailne.Each group were sacrificed 12 h or 24 h later.respectively.Blood sample was taken to determine the serum level of amylase.Terminal ileum was resected to observe the pathologic changes;immunohistochemistry method was applied to detect the activity of NF-κB;the expression of TNF-α mRNA,ICAM-1 mRNA in intestinal mucosa was measured by RT-PCR.Results Intestinal injury score of ANP group was higher than that ofcontrol group(P＜0.05),intestinal injury score of ANP 12 h group was higher than that of rITF 12 h group(P＜0.05),but there was no significant difference between ANP 24 h group and rITF 24 h group.The number of positive NF-κB cells was 26±4,55±8,49±4,respectively;the relatively expression of TNF-α mRNA in terminal ileum was 0.050±0.005,1.040±0.031 and 0.792±0.0256,respectively;the relatively expression of ICAM-1 mBNA was 0.045±0.010,0.795±0.037 and 0.400±0.031,respectively,in control group,ANP group and rITF 12 h group.The corresponding values in the ANP group were significantly increased compared with those values in the control group (P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Conclusions rITF may protect the intestinal mucosa.the mechanism may include inhibit NF-κB activation,down-regulate TiNF-α mBNA,ICAM-1 mRNA expression.

Objective To assess the value of emergency interventional embolization in treating traumatic spleen rupture. Methods A total of 74 patients with traumatic spleen rupture, who were encountered at authors’ hospital during the period from July 2007 to July 2013, were enrolled in this study. The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into embolization group (n = 38) and surgery group (n = 36). Interventional splenic artery embolization was carried out in the patients of the embolization group, and surgical repair was employed in the patients of the surgery group. The operation time, the amount of blood loss during the procedure, the hospitalization days, the preservation rate of the spleen and the occurrence of procedure- related adverse events were recorded, and the results were compared between the two groups. Results No significant difference in the operation time existed between the two groups (P = 0.061). The amount of blood loss during the procedure, the hospitalization days and the occurrence of procedure- related adverse events in the embolization group were significantly lower than those in the surgery group (P < 0.05), while the preservation rate of the spleen of the embolization group was significantly higher than that of the surgery group (P = 0.026). Conclusion Emergency interventional embolization is a safe procedure for the treatment of traumatic spleen rupture, this technique can improve the preservation rate of the spleen when compared with traditional surgical repair treatment.

Objective To explore the effects of anxiety-like behaviors on the levels of sex hormones and severity of erectile dysfunction(ED) in young men.Methods A total of 120 young men with ED,between the ages of 23 and 35 years,were prospectively studied,and all of them were the outpatients from the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University from January 2012 to October 2013.Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) was used.According to the scores of SAS,the patients were divided into four groups.26 were rated by SAS as in the normal,36 in the mild,32 in the moderate and 26 in the severe state of anxiety.The levels of serum sex hormone (FSH,LH,PRL,T,E2) were detected by immunochemiluminometric assays.ED was assessed using the IIEF-5.Further,the responses were divided into three diagnosing groups on the basis of cutoff scores for IIEF-5.The relationship between the SAS scores of measuring anxiety,serum sex hormone levels,and the indicators for ED,Spearman rank correlations were carried out.Results Comparing with the normal control group,the levels of serum sex hormones (FSH,LH,PRL,E2) increased in other groups,but there were no significant differences (F=0.28,P=0.08 ; F=2.91,P=0.06; F=0.90,P=0.44; F=0.80,P=0.15).The levels of serum testosterone and the scores of IIEF-5 in the moderate and severe anxiety group decreased.The more severe symptoms of anxiety,the more likely that the ED would occur(x2=72.423,P=0.00),and ED was significantly positively correlated with anxiety(r=0.637,P=0.00).Testosterone played the partial intermediary role on the relationship between anxiety score and the IIEF-5 score.Conclusion Anxiety may contribute to ED through disturbing the sex hormone and lowering the level of serum testosterone.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of drug-coated balloon (DCB) with paclitaxel in the treatment of femoropopliteal artery in-stent restenosis.Methods:From Dec 2016 to Jul 2020, clinical and follow-up data of femoropopliteal artery in-stent restenosis (ISR) treated with paclitaxel DCB were retrospectively analyzed.Results:Firty-two patients (56 lower limbs) with femoropopliteal artery ISR underwent DCB therapy. According to Rutherford classification, 1 case was R2 (1.7%), 9 cases were R3 (23.2%), 23 cases were R4 (41.1%), 15 cases were R5 (26.8%) and 4 cases were R6 (7.1%). According to Tosaka classification of ISR, 46 (81.2%)limbs were Tosaka Ⅱ, 10(17.9%)limbs were Tosaka Ⅲ Mean lesion length of ISR was (240±122)mm. Bail-out stent implantation was performed in 25% cases. The median follow-up time was 18 months. The all-cause mortality rate was 11.8%, the major amputation rate was 5.9%, the primary patency rate was 53.4%, the primary assisted patency rate was 67.1%, the secondary patency rate was 93.2%, and the F-TLR was 77.2%.Conclusion:DCB is a safe and effective endovascular therapy for femoropopliteal artery ISR.

Objective To evaluate the clinical diagnosis and treatment of acute renal infarction.Methods Two cases (3 sides) of acute renal infarction were reported.The patients were 1 male and 1 female,with the age of 62 and 54 years.Case 1 presented acute left flank pain,and enhanced CT showed a non-enhanced area in the upper and mid pole of the left kidney.The diagnosis of focal renal infarction was made and treated with low-molecular heparin (6000 U ).Case 2 presented acute both right abdominal and flank pain,and enhanced CT showed right renal artery embolism and right renal complete infarction.Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) and catheter thrombolytic therapy was applied.4 months later,the patient presented acute left flank pain,and enhanced CT showed a low density area in left kidney without enhanced by contrast,and DSA and catheter thrombolytic therapy was applied again.Results In case 1,contrastenhanced MRI showed a still low signal area like enhanced CT after 2 days of treatment.The renal function remained normal in the follow-up of 36 months.In case 2,the right kidney resorted to moderate blood flow but became atrophy later.In the follow-up of 4 months,a recurrent focal infarction was confirmed in left kidney by enhanced CT.The left kidney also resorted to moderate bloodflow after DSA and catheter thrombolytic therapy.The renal function became normal after follow-up of 10 months and no new infarction was observed.Conclusions The diagnosis of acute renal infraction could be made by enhanced CT or MRI.Early diagnosis and location of the infraction renal artery is critical for recovery of the impaired renal function.Acute renal infraction should be suspected in patients with unexplained persistent and steady flank or abdominal pain in emergence department.

Objective:To evaluate the mid-term clinical efficacy of drug-coated balloons (DCB)in the treatment of femoro-popliteal artery TASC Ⅱ C/D de novo stenosis and in-stent restenosis.Methods:A total of 126 patients with TASC Ⅱ C/D femoro-popliteal artery stenosis treated with DCB in Renji Hospital and Pudong New Area People's Hospital from December 2016 to August 2020 were retrospectively enrolled, including 74 cases of de novo stenosis (de novo group) and 52 cases of in-stent restenosis (ISR group). The clinical data and lesion characteristics were analyzed; the primary patency rate, primary-assisted patency rate, secondary patency rate, and the freedom from target lesion revascularization (f-TLR)rate were evaluated; the perioperative complications, mortality and amputation rate were compared between two groups. Kaplan-Meier method was used to evaluate the patency rate of target vessel lesions, and Cox regression analysis was used to evaluate the relative risk factors.Results:There were 6 patients died in each group during the followup period. The lesion length of the de novo and ISR groups were (21.25±12.64) cm and (34.71±12.02) cm, respectively( t=33.74, P<0.001). The popliteal artery involvement was 33.8% (25/74) in the de novo group and 15.4% (8/52) in the ISR group (χ 2=5.35, P=0.021). The operational success rate was 100.0% in both groups, and the perioperative complication rate was 6.8% (5/74) in the de novo group and 1.9% (1/52) in ISR group. The median follow-up time was 22 month and 17 months; the mean follow-up time were(19.78 ± 11.02) months and (20.02 ± 11.32) months in the de novo group and ISR group, respectively. The primary patency rates at 6, 12 and 24 months after intervention were 89.1%, 73.4%, 50.8% in the Denovo group, and 87.8%, 68.8%, 42.0% in the ISR group, respectively; the primary assisted patency rate was 90.7%, 78.4%, 62.8% in the de novo group, and 89.3%,77.1%, 62.8% in the ISR group, respectively; the secondary patency rate was 95.1%,95.1%, 88.7% in de novo group, and 94.9%, 88.9%, 84.3% in ISR group, respectively; the f-TLR rate was 97.3%, 88.6%, 79.2% in de novo group, and 90.0%, 77.7%, 74.7% in ISR group, respectively (all P>0.05). Cox regression analysis showed that P2 and P3 segment involvement of the popliteal artery were independent factors affecting the patency rate of target lesion. Conclusions:The mid-term clinical efficacy of DCB in the treatment of TASC Ⅱ C/D femoro-popliteal artery de novo stenosis and in-stent restenosis is satisfactory.
