Objective To compare the clinical effect of VATS and thoracotomy pulmonary wedge resection in treatment of pulmonary inflammatory pseudotumor. Methods 46 patients with pulmonary inflammatory pseudotumor were randomly divided into the observation group(24 cases) and the control group(22 cases) ,the control group were treated by thoracotomy pulmonary wedge resection and the observation group were treated by VATS wedge resection,the intraoperative blood loss,hospital stay, prognosis and complications were compared. Results All patients of two groups were cured and discharged. The intraoperative blood loss of observation group[(46. 0±12. 3 ) ml] was significantly less than the control group [(95.2 ± 18. 6) ml] ( t = 3. 19, P < 0. 05 ), and the hospital stay was significantly shorter than the control group( t = 3.01,P < 0. 05 ), the difference of the incidence of complications of two groups was not statistically significant( P > 0. 05 ). Conclusion VATS wedge resection of pulmonary inflammatory pseudotumor had features of less bleeding and quicker healing characteristics,could be worthy of clinical application.

This research based on the analysis of spontaneous reporting system (SRS) data which the 9 601 case reports of Shuxuening injection adverse drug reactions (ADR) in national adverse drug reaction monitoring center during 2005-2012. Apply to the association rules to analysis of the relationship between Shuxuening injection's ADR and the characteristics of ADR reports were. We found that ADR commonly combination were "nausea + breath + chills + vomiting", "nausea + chills + vomiting + palpitations", and their confidence level were 100%. The ADR and the case reports information commonly combination were "itching, and glucose and sodium chloride Injection, and generally ADR report, and normal dosage", "palpitation, and glucose and sodium chloride injection, and normal dosage, and new report", "chills, and generally ADR report, and normal dosage, and 0.9% sodium chloride injection", and their confidence level were 100% too. The results showed that patients using Shuxuening injection occurred most of ADRs were systemic damage, skin and its accessories damage, digestive system damage, etc. And most of cases were generally and new reports, and patients with normal dosage. The ADR's occurred had little related with solvent. It is showed that the Shuxuening injection occurred of ADR mainly related to drug composition. So Shuxuening injection used in clinical need to closely observation, and focus on the ADR reaction, and to do a good job of drug risk management.

Objective To improve the accuracy of X-ray diagnosis of the deltoid ligament injury by evaluating the influence of plantar flexion on the diagnosis.Methods Twenty-four patients with ankle supination-extemal rotation fracture which was distal fibula fracture but no medial malleolus fracture were treated from February 2010 to December 2010.All the patients were taken Mortise radiograph with the ankle in four positions of plantar flexion(0°,15°,30° and 45°)applied with rotational stress and the deltoid ligament injury was identified with MRI.The medical clear space(MCS)and the superior clear space(SCS)on each radiograph were measured.The results were tested by a one-way analysis of variance model(ANOVA),based on the following criteria:(1)the MCS≥ 4 mm and MCS > SCS,or when MCS≥5 mm and MCS >SCS.The MRI examination was taken as the gold standard to compare the influence of X-ray diagnosis of the deltoid ligament injury with different plantar flexions and different standards.Results The average MCS in four positions of plantar flexion(0°,15°,30°,and 45 °)with rotational stress were(4.10 ±0.79)mm,(4.55 ±0.72)mm,(4.99 ±0.56)mm and(5.71 ±0.86)ram,with statistical difference(P <0.05).The average SCS in four positions of plantar flexion(0°,15°,30°,and 45°)were(3.56 ±0.41)mm,(3.50 ±0.43)mm,(3.71 +0.44)mm and(3.93 ±0.51)mm,with no statistical difference in the four groups(P >0.05).With the MSC≥4 mm and MSC > SCS as the diagnostic criteria,the prevalence of false-positive findings of deltoid injury based on the ratio with the four positions of plantar flexion(0°,15°,30° and 45°)were 50.0%,66.7%,88.9% and 94.4% respectively.With the MSC≥5 mm and MSC >SCS as the diagnostic criteria,the prevalence of false-positive findings of deltoid injury based on the ratio with the four positions of plantar flexion(0°,15°,30° and 45°)were 5.6%,11.1%,38.9% and 77.8% respectively.Condusions Different plantar flexion angle is an important factor for X-ray diagnosis of deltoid ligament injury of the ankle joint.The prevalence of false-positive findings of deltoid injury increases with the increase of plantar flexion.

To compare the frequency distribution differences of allele and genotype of two sites among different ethnic. Methods:The polymorphism of rs10975521A/T and rs1929992A/G of IL-33 gene in 283 subjects were analyzed with the methods of Single base extension (PCR-SEB) and DNA sequencing,and the distribution frequency and the differences between groups of that were analyzed statisticaly. Results:Three genotypes of AA,AT and TT were found in rs10975521A/T with the frequency distribution of 12. 7%,53. 0% and 34. 3% respectively and there was no significant difference between sexes of each genotype and allele frequency in the Guangxi population ( P>0. 05 ) . There were significant differences of the allele frequency of rs10975521A/T in the Guangxi population compared with that in the European (P< 0. 05), han Chinese in Bejing (P< 0. 05) and Japanese people (P< 0. 01). Three genotypes of AA,AG and GG were found in rs1929992A/G with the frequency distribution of 23. 9%,53. 7% and 13. 4% respectively and there was no significant difference between sexes of each genotype and allele frequency in the Guangxi population(P> 0. 05),but the differences of genotype frequency of rs1929992A/G was statistically significant compared with that in the European,han Chinese in Bejing and Japanese people ( P< 0. 05 ) . There were significant differences of the allele frequency between Guangxi population and European (P< 0. 01),han Chinese in Bejing(P< 0. 05). Conclusion: There are different degrees of discrepancy of rs10975521A/T and rs1929992A/G polymorphism of IL-33 gene among different race and region.

Objective To study the expression of Rho kinase and its functional activation in lung tissue from hypoxic pulmonary hypertension(HPH) rat model,and the effects of fasudil on HPH.Methods Seventy-two male Spraque-Dawley rats were randomly divided into the control group,hypoxic model group,and fasudil-intervention group[group with hypoxia and fasudil for 15 mg/(kg?d)],respectively.Mean pulmonary arterial pressure(mPAP) and right ventricle hypertrophy index(RVHI) were measured.Expression of Rho kinase mRNA and protein were examined by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) and Western blot,respectively.The phosphorylation of binding subunit of myosin phosphatase(MBS)-a substrate of Rho kinase was detected by Western blot and defined,as the mark of functional activation of the kinase.Results The expression of Rho kinase mRNA in hypoxic model group was markedly upregulated even before the onset of the third day after the experiment(HPH),and it was much lower in rats of fasudil group than that of hypoxic model group.The phosphorylation of MBS was significantly higher in hypoxic model group than that in control group,and it was positively correlated with the mPAP and RVHI(all P

To examine the relationship between genetic variants in the interleukin-6 receptor gene and obesity. The result showed that the carriers of Asp358 homozygotes had higher risk in developing obesity when compared with Ala358 homozygotes (OR = 1.32,95% CI 1.07-1.68, P = 0. 041). Interleukin-6 receptor gene pulymorphism was significantly associated with obesity.
