Objective To determine the effects of prostaglandin E_2 alone and the combination with omeprazole for poisoning related acute mucosal lesion. Methods Forty-two healthy SD rats were randomly divided into 7 groups: control group (control), methamidophos poisoning model group (intox), 10 mg/kg omeprazole group (ome1), 50 mg/kg omeprazole group (ome2), 10 μg/kg prostaglandin E_2 group (PG1), 50 μg/kg prostaglandin E_2 group (PG2), 10 μg/kg prostaglandin E_2 combined with 10 mg/ kg omeprazole group (union). The gastric ulcer index was counted and the content of serum cholinesterase, endothelin, and tumor necrosis factor were measured, and dependability was analyzed. Results There was no obvious difference between the prostaglandin group and the poisoning model group in gastric ulcer index, endothelin, and tumor necrosis factor. The omeprazole alone and the combination treatment could improve the acute gastric mucosa lesion induced by methamidophos poisoning. Conclusion Prostaglandin E_2 alone can not obviously improve the acute gastric mucosa lesion by methamidophos poisoning. The combination with omeprazole may be a promising treatment.

Objective: To explore the clinical effect of two disinfectors on prevention for central line-associated blood stream infection (CLABSI) in hemodialysis. Methods: 168 patients received blood purification through central venous indwelling catheter were divided into control group (82 cases) and observation group (86 cases) as random table. The patients of control group were disinfected by using iodophor disinfectant on central venous catheter and skin around puncture, while the patients of observation group were disinfected by using medical chlorhexidine gluconate (2% chlorhexidine gluconate, 70% isopropanol and 28%injection) on the same positions. In different stages, before and after central venous indwelling catheter and 24 hours after central venous indwelling catheter, the colony count and incidence of CLABSI of patients between two groups were compared. Results: There was no significant difference between the two groups for colony count around puncture before central venous indwelling catheter (t=-1.478, P>0.05). The colony count of observation group was lower than that of control group after 24 hours of disinfection. According to the diagnosis standards of CLABSI, the incidence of CLABSI in observation group was significant lower than that in control group (x2=6.048, P<0.05). Conclusion: The disinfector of chlorhexidine gluconate can decrease the incidence of CLABSI in hemodialysis and its bacteriostatic time is longer than that of iodophor disinfectant. Therefore, this method is worthy for promotion in clinical practice.

Objective To observe the changes of Endothelin,Tumor Necrosis Factor in different stress; and to explore the corelation between the changes of Endothelin,Tumor Necrosis Factor and the occurrence of stress-related gastric mucosal disease.Methods The models of the acute methamidophos poison and the acute myocardial infarction in rats were made.The gastric ulcer index was counted and the content of blood plasma Endothelin and blood serum Tumor Necrosis Factor were checked.Results Models of the acute methamidophos poison and the acute myocardial infarction in rats were set up successfully. The gastric ulcer index of rats in the stress groups increased.The blood plasma Endothelin and blood serum Tumor Necrosis Factor in the stress group were significantly higher than those in the control group.Conclusion The gastric mucosal disease under different stress was observed with the gastric mucosal ulcer index.The blood plasm Endothelin and blood serum Tumor Necrosis Factor under different stress were increased,suggesting they play an important role in this phenomenen.

Background Currently,the recommendation when treating acute biliary or pancreatic disease during pregnancy is to perform endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) without radiation exposure,either empirically (with no radiographic guidance) or with ultrasound guidance.However,few published studies compared these two ways.This study aimed to compare ultrasound-guided ERCP with the procedure without radiographic guidance in the treatment of acute pancreaticobiliary disease in pregnant patients.Methods The clinical data of 68 pregnant patients with acute pancreaticobiliary disease admitted to our hospital between January 2004 and May 2010 were reviewed retrospectively.ERCP was performed without radiographic guidance in 36 cases (group A) and with ultrasound guidance in 32 cases (group B).Data on the following variables were compared between the two groups:surgical success rate,rate of complete stone removal,time to resolution of clinical manifestations and laboratory indicators,length of hospital stay,complications,outcome and differences in efficacy of ERCP during different stages of pregnancy.Results In group A,the rates of surgical success and complete removal of stones were 69％ and 60％,respectively; the corresponding values were 91％ and 89％ in group B (P ＜0.05).Postoperatively,clinical manifestations improved rapidly in all patients; there was no statistically significant difference between the groups (P ＞0.05).Leukocyte counts and liver function had improved significantly after one week in all patients; they recovered more quickly in group B ((8.64±1.83)days vs.(14.57±3.74) days,(14.29±4.64) days vs.(20.00±5.40) days,P ＜0.01).The hospital stay was shorter in group B ((16.28±7.25) days vs.(28.00±6.83) days,P＜0.001).The complication rate was 14％ in group A and 3％ in group B (P ＜0.05).There were no significant differences between the two groups in the procedure's efficacy during different stages of pregnancy.Conclusions In the treatment of acute pancreaticobiliary disease during pregnancy,ultrasound-guided ERCP is safer and more effective than performing the procedure empirically without radiographic guidance when performed by experienced practitioners.Its more widespread use is recommended.

Objective To observe the recent clinical efficacy of the sequential therapy hormone in the treatment of active rheumatoid arthritis.Methods In accordance with the principle of digital sheet,160 patients with active rheumatoid arthritis were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group,80 cases in each group.On the basis of methotrexate and leflunomide in both groups,the hormone sequential therapy was given in the observation group,but prednisone was given in the control group.The clinical efficacy of treatment after 1 week and 3 months were compared in two groups.Results In the observation group,the indicators in 7 d after treatment were significantly reduced,compared with untreated(t =19.90,7.63,14.73,7.58,6.84,14.09,all P ＜0.01),In the control group,three indicators of the duration of morning stiffness,joint tenderness index and joint swelling index in 7d after treatment were significantly reduced,compared with untreated (t =13.42,3.34,7.24,all P ＜ 0.01),Compared the indicators in the two groups in 7 d after treatment,there were statistically significant differences (t =13.07,4.92,10.51,5.23,5.74,15.03,all P ＜ 0.01).The indicators in the 3 months after treatment in both groups were signifi cantly decreased,buttherewasnosignificantdifferencebetweenthetwogroups (t =1.80,1.73,1.59,1.22,1.21,1.35,all P ＞ 0.05).The total effective rate was 80% in the observation group; but the rate was 75 % in the control group;there was no statistically significant difference in the two groups(x2 =0.57,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion The sequential hormone therapy is an effective means for the treatment of active rheumatoid arthritis,by controlled the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis effectively and alleviated the patient's condition.

Objective: To observe the clinical efficacy of acupoint injection of Chuankezhi plus acupoint sticking treatment for bronchial asthma, and provide clinical evidence for the synergy of the two therapies, and explore their synergistic mechanism. Methods: A total of 70 patients were randomized into an acupoint injection plus sticking group and an acupiont sticking group by the random number table, with 35 cases in each group. The treatment took place in July and August. The acupoint injection plus sticking group was treated with acupoint injection and acupiont sticking, while the acupiont sticking group was treated only with acupiont sticking therapy. The treatment course was 4 weeks. After the treatment, the scores of symptom scale in the two groups before treatment, 3 months and 6 months after the treatment were observed. Results: During the treatment, there were 5 dropouts in the acupoint injection plus sticking group with 30 cases remained, and 4 dropouts in the acupiont sticking group with 31 cases remained. Before the treatment, there was no significant difference in the total scores of symptom scale between the two groups. Three months after the treatment, the total scores of symptom scale of both groups were lower than those before treatment, and the intra-group differences were statistically significant (bothP<0.05). In the inter-group comparison, there was no significant difference in the difference values of the scores before treatment and 3 months after treatment (P>0.05). Six months after the treatment, the total scores of symptom scale in both groups were lower than those before treatment, and the intra-group differences were statistically significant (bothP<0.05), so were the differences in the difference values of the scores before treatment and 6 months after treatment (bothP<0.05). Conclusion: Acupoint injection of Chuankezhi plus acupoint sticking or acupoint sticking alone both can improve the symptoms of patients with bronchial asthma. Acupoint injection of Chuankezhi plus acupoint sticking has a higher total effective rate than single acupoint sticking therapy.
