Objective To study the effect of dexamethasone on pulmonary fibrosis model induced by bleomycin in rats and the expression of STAT1 and PDGF in lung tissue,and to discuss the possible mechanism.Methods Forty-five Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups(15 in each group).They were dexamethasone group(DXM group),bleomycin group(BLM group) and control group(NS group):① The DEX group were intratracheally instilled with belomycin(BLM)(5mg/kg,in 1ml 0.9% NaCl solution),and then were treated with dexamethasone 3mg/kg via celiac injection daily;② BLM group were intratracheally instilled with BLM(5mg/kg),and then were treated with saline 3mg/kg via celiac injection daily;③ NS group were intratracheally instilled with saline(5mg/kg),and then were treated with saline 3mg/kg via celiac injection daily.Five rats in each group were sacrificed at 7,14,and 28 days after intratrachel instillation.Histological changes of the lungs were evaluated by HE stain.The bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF) of right lung was gotten and the cells counting as well as differentiation were figured out.The expression of STAT1 and PDGF protein was assessed by immunohistochemistry.Results(1) The total number of inflammatory cells in BALF in BLM group was the highest at day 7 and diminished at day 14 and 28,which was significant different compared with that of the NS group(P

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of acupuncture at the six mind-calming points plus the four gate points in treating migraine.Method Totally 128 eligible migraine patients were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 64 cases in each group. The treatment group was intervened by acupuncture at the six mind-calming points plus the four gate points, while the control group was by ordinary acupuncture. The Numerical Rating Scale (NRS), headache attack frequency, headache duration, headache intensity, complicated symptoms, Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS), and Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) were observed before and after treatment and in the follow-up study.Result The NRS scores and the headache symptoms and functions scores were significantly changed respectively after 2-week and 4-week treatment in both groups (P<0.01,P<0.05). The NRS score, headache duration, and headache intensity in the treatment group were significantly different from that in the control group after 4-week treatment and in the follow-up study (P<0.05,P<0.01). The SDS and SAS scores were significantly changed after 2-week and 4-week treatments as well as in the follow-up study in the treatment group (P<0.01). The SDS and SAS scores were significantly changed after 4-week treatment in the control group (P<0.01). There were significant differences in comparing the SDS and SAS scores between the two groups after 2-week and 4-week treatment as well as in the follow-up study (P<0.05,P<0.01). In the treatment group, the SDS and SAS scores in the follow-up study were significantly different from that after 2-week treatment (P<0.01).Conclusion Acupuncture at the six mind-calming points plus the four gate points is an effective method in treating migraine, and it can reduce headache intensity, and improve the anxiety and depression state.

Objective　To analyze the clinical features, etiological examination, laboratory examination, imaging examination, and treatment of patients with diabetes combined with Klebsiella pneumoniae liver abscess (KPLA), and to provide a reference for clinical work. Methods　The clinical data of patients with diabetes combined with KPLA in the First People's Hospital of Neijiang City from 2021 to 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Results　Among the 12 patients with diabetes combined with KPLA, there were 8 males and 4 females, aged 47-74 years old. Five cases were combined with biliary tract diseases, 3 cases were combined with syphilis, and 2 cases were combined with hepatitis B.The main clinical manifestations included fever (12 cases), anorexia (10 cases), stomachache (6 cases), dizziness (2 cases), weakness (3 cases), cough and sputum (2 cases), disturbance of consciousness (2 cases), and visual impairment (1 case). Laboratory test results showed an increase in the percentage of neutrophils, glycosylated hemoglobin, transaminase, C-reactive protein, and procalcitonin, as well as a decrease in platelets and albumin. Abdominal CT findings were predominantly unilateral lesions, mostly found in the right liver, mainly manifested as mass, flaky, and nodular shadows. Two patients presented with invasive syndromes, 2 cases had lung abscesses, and 1 case had concomitant endophthalmitis and meningitis. The etiological examination of 12 patients with Klebsiella pneumoniae showed that they were all sensitive bacteria. After actively controlling blood glucose, effectively using antibiotics, and performing liver puncture and drainage, 11 cases improved, while 1 case was left with permanent blindness. Conclusions　The clinical features of diabetes combined with KPLA are atypical and easy to misdiagnose, thus early imaging and etiological examination should be performed. Aggressive glucose control, and selection of sensitive antimicrobial drugs based on drug sensitivity tests combined with liver abscess puncture and drainage can help to improve the prognosis.

Clinical data of 13 patients with primary pulmonary lymphoma(PPL),treated in Tianjin Medical University Cancer Hospital from January 1999 to December 2009,were retrospectively reviewed.There were 8 patients with mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue(MALT)marginal zone lymphoma,2 patients with diffuse large B cell lymphoma,1 patient with NK/T cell lymphoma,1 patient with nodular sclerosis Hodgkin's lymphoma,and 1 patients with lymphocytic predominance Hodgkin's lymphoma.The main clinical symptoms were cough,fever,night sweat and weight loss.Two patients did not have any symptoms.Pulmonary consolidation shadows and multiple nodules were the main findings of CT scan.An air bronchogram was often seen in the consolidation imaging.The overall 5-year survival rate was 9/13 for all patients;while that was 7/8 for MALT marginal gone lymphoma.

The effect of gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogue(GnRHa) on lineafity growth and final height in 82 girls with central precocious puberty (CPP) was evaluated. The growth velocity in the second year was positively correlated with the difference value of bone age between the first year and the second year after treatment. The height standard deviation score for bone age and predicted aduh height increased after treatment. Twenty-six girls who had been followed to final height obtained better adult height than target height. GnRHa in combination with aerobic exercise increases linear growth and final height in girls with CPP.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the prevalence of human papillomavirus in nasopharyngeal carcinomas of Fujian province in China. METHOD: Samples from 70 patients with NPC and 25 controls. All samples were detected HPV DNA by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) suing GP5+/6+ and MY09/11 primers and genotyped by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and HPV 16/18 E6 and LMP-1 using immunohistochemistry and EBER using in situ hybridization. RESULT: Only 2 cases of 70 patients were showed evidence of HPV DNA by PCR, the 2 HPV positive cases subtype HPV-70 and HPV-18 were genotyped by SPR, both the 2 HPV positive cases are non-keratinizing carcinomas (the HPV-70 positive one is differentiated and the HPV-18 positive one is undifferentiated), both the 2 HPV positive cases do not show any evidence of EBV. Data showed that 57 of 70 NPC detected EBER positive, but only 25 out of 70 NPC samples were detected LMP-1 positive. CONCLUSION Our study showed a low prevalence of human papillomavirus in NPC patients of Fujian province in Southern China, there is no evidence about HPV and EBV co-infection.

Objective To evaluate the method, clinical efficacy and safety of one phase treat-ment of renal calculi associated with pyonephrosis by percutaneous nephrolithotripsy(PCNL) by pneu-matic combined with ultrasonic lithotriptor. Methods Sixty-six cases of renal calculi accompanied with pyonephrosis were treated with PCNL. The renal calyx was punctured under ultrasound gui-dance, then the tract was dilated from F8 to F16 by peel-away vascular access sheathes. After the in-sertion of the flexible sheath, metallic dilator was inserted and the flexible sheath was pulled out. The tract was dilated by metallic sheath to F21 and the operation sheath and nephroseope were placed into working tract. EMS III LithoClast Master was used. Ultrasonic powered lithotriptor probe with suc-tion was used to clear the liquor puris and calculus fragments with low-pressure or no-pressure. The combined pneumatic and ultrasonic powered lithotriptor was used to break and clear the calculi. Re-salts Of the 66 cases, there was no bacteremia or pyaemia intraoperatively and postoperatively. And there was no other severe complication occurred intraoperatively. One phase PCNL was successfully completed in 60 cases. Other 4 cases had residual calculi less than 1.5 em in diameter and received ESWL to break the calculi, 2 cases had bigger residual calculi and accepted second PCNL 1 week after the first intervention. In the follow-up period, the 3 month post-operative serum Cr was 56-203 μmol/L with an average decrease of 40 μmol/L, GFR was 5.0-56.2 ml/min with an average increase of 23.6 ml/min compared with the pre-operative data. At 6 months postoperative serum Cr was 56-158 μmol/L with average decrease of 31 μmol/L, GFR was 5.0-79.2 ml/min with an average in-crease of 30.2 ml/min. Conclusion Application of PCNL in the treatment of patients with renal cal-culi accompanied with pyonephrosis is safe, cost-effective and clinically efficient by pneumatic com-bined with ultrasonic lithotriptor.
