Observation group severe sequela incidence 11.32% was significantly lower than that of 39.62% of control group and statistically significant differences (P<0.05).Conclusion Xiyangping combined with vidarabine in treatment for children with infantile viral encephalitis can significantly increase the number of T cell subgroup, improve immune function in children with, and curative effect is remarkable and high security.

OBJECTIVE:To observe clinical efficacy and safety of Xuebijing injection combined with imipenem and cilasta-tion in the treatment of severe abdominal infection,and its effects on plasma endotoxin and inflammatory factors. METHODS:Dur-ing Apr. 2013-Apr. 2016,100 patients with severe abdominal infection in our hospital were divided into observation group and control group according to random number table,with 50 cases in each group. Both groups were given Imipenem and cilastation sodium for injection 0.5 g added into 0.9% Sodium chloride injection 500 mL,ivgtt(≥40 min),q12 h. Eight hours later,ob-servation group was additionally given Xuebijing injection 100 mL added into 0.9% Sodium chloride injection 500 mL,ivgtt, bid;Both groups were treated for 5-7 d. The levels of plasma endotoxin and inflammatory factors(TNF-α,IL-6,IL-6/IL-10) were compared in 2 groups before after treatment,and clinical efficacies and the occurrence of ADR was recorded. RESULTS:Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in plasma endotoxin or inflammatory factor levels between 2 groups(P>0.05). After treatment,plasma endotoxin and inflammatory factor levels of 2 groups were decreased significantly,and the obser-vation group was significantly lower than the control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). The excellent and good rate of observation group was 98.00%,which was significantly higher than 78.00%,with statistical significance(P<0.05). No obvi-ous ADR was found in 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS:Xuebijing injection combined with imipenem and cilastation show significant therapeutic efficacy for severe abdominal infection,can effectively control the release of endotoxin and inflammatory factors with good safety.

A retrospective study was carried out to analyze 3 cases of renal echinococcosis confirmed by surgery and pathology in the hospital during 1999-2008.The patients were examined by 64-CT plain scan and multiple period enhancement scan.Among them,2 were multi-daughter-cyst hydatid disease,and 1 appeared as solitary one.Two cases were once misdiagnosed as renal cyst and renal hamartoma,and the other was diagnosed correctly before operation.CT signscanning combined with epidemiological information can make an accurate diagnosis for renal echinococcosis.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of continuous suture by QuillTM SRS self-retaining suture for closing choledoch incision. Methods From January 2015 to October 2015, 66 patients with gall bladder calculi combined with common bile duct stones who received laparoscopic gallbladder excision, common bile duct explo-ration, laparoscopy choledochotomy, suture choledoch immediately were randomly divided into two groups, experi-mental group using QuillTM SRS self-retaining suture for closing choledoch incision and control group using tradi-tional absorbable suture for closing choledoch incision. Then observe the operation time, the risk of bile leakage oc-curred in the operation and the risk of bile leakage after operation. Results All patients successfully completed in laparoscopic surgery without laparotomy. Operation time, the risk of bile leakage occurred during operation in exper-imental group has statistically significant difference compared with control group ( < 0.05). The operation time and incidence of intraoperative bile leakage of the experimental group was less and lower than control group, while the risk of bile leakage after operation show no statistically difference ( >0.05). Conclusion Compared with interrupted suture by normal sutures, continuous suture by QuillTM SRS self-retaining suture for closing choledoch incision has the characteristics of shorter operation time and lower incidence of intraoperative and postoperative bile leakage.

AIM:To investigate the effects of pioglitazone on the quantity and function-related factors of regu-latory and effector T cells ( Treg and Teff ) of uremic apolipoprotein E knockout mice in vitro with or without the stimulation of atherosclerotic plaque-specific antigen oxidized low-density lipoprotein ( oxLDL) .METHODS:Uremic apolipoprotein E knockout mouse model was established by 2-step surgical procedure.After intervention with different concentrations ( 2μmol/L and 20μmol/L) of pioglitazone and PPARγantagonist GW9662 (5μmol/L) on splenocytes of uremic mice for 12 h in the presence or absence of oxLDL (2 mg/L), the levels of CD4 +CD25 +Foxp3 +Treg and IFNγ+CD4 +Teff were de-termined by flow cytometry.The mRNA expressions of Foxp3 and IFNγwas detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR.RESULTS:In vitro, oxLDL induced a Treg/Teff imbalance in splenocytes from the uremic mice.Pioglitazone up-regulated the level of Treg and mRNA expression of Foxp3 in the presence of oxLDL, which was not antagonized by GW9662.Meanwhile, pioglitazone downregulated the level of Teff and mRNA expression of IFNγin the presence or ab-sence of oxLDL, which was reversed by GW9662.CONCLUSION:oxLDL induces a Treg/Teff imbalance in uremic apo-lipoprotein E knockout mice.Pioglitazone modulates the Treg/Teff imbalance probably through PPARγ-independent and-dependent mechanisms.

OBJECTIVETo study retrospectively 20 hip revison patients treated by cementless total hip arthroplasty with structural allograft.

METHODSTwenty patients suffering from aseptic loosening of an uncemented cup complicated by a large defect underwent cementless total hip arthroplasty with structural allograft and were followed up for at least 5 years. Clinical results were evaluated by Harris score and leg length measurements. Radiographic analysis included implants migration, graft absorbance, osteolysis and liner wear.

RESULTSNo cup loosening or graft reabsorption was found at final follow-up. Clinical improvements in pain and functional status were demonstrated during the follow-up period. The mean Harris hip scores improved from 29 preoperatively (range 20-41) to 81 postoperatively (range 73-89).

CONCLUSIONOur study shows that cementless total hip arthroplasty with allograft is a good way for massive defect in acetabular bone stock.
