Objective To observe the glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (GIOP) in children with kidney diseases by quantitative ultrasound (QUS), and to analyze its influencing factors.Methods The tibia/radius bone mineral density(BMD) was checked obtained in 67 cases with childhood kidney diseases treated with glucocorticoid by QUS,BMD was measured in children over the age of 12 by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry(DXEA) ,and BMD was measured with QUS consistency and different stages of osteoporsis were compared.The clinical data of gender, age,body mass index(BMI) ,administration duration and daily dosage of glucocorticoid were analyzed.The association between the duration of glucocorticoid use,and daily dosage of glucocorticoid and the different degrees of BMD was analyzed by Logistic regression analysis.Results Sixty-seven patients(male 45 ,female 22) were divided into 4 groups according to the reference standard of Asian children BMD data provided by Sunlight Company:the normal BMD group(41 cases), the mild osteoporosis group (18 cases), moderate osteoporosis group (5 cases), and severe osteoporosis group (3 cases).Both QUS and DEXA were highly correlated with BMD in patients measured (P ＞ 0.05).The duration of glucocorticoid treatment and daily dosage of glucocorticoid in 3 abnormal BMD groups were all significantly longer and larger than those of the normal BMD group (all P ＜ 0.05).Correlation analysis showed that BMI was positively correlated with the bone mass of the tibia(r =0.395 ,P ＜ 0.01).The duration of glucocorticoid treatment and daily dosage of glucocorticoid were negatively correlated with those of radius BMD(r =-0.474,-0.381 ,all P ＜ 0.01).Analysis showed that both the duration of glucocorticoid,and the daily dosage of glucocorticoid were the risk factors for GIOP.Conclusions QUS is a better method for evaluating of BMD and diagnosing of GIOP compared with DEXA in children.The daily dosage of glucocorticoid and the duration of glucocorticoid treatment are both the risk factors for GIOP.

Objective To investigate the changes in the concentration of myocardin in children with lupus nephritis (LN) under different degree of vessel damage.Methods Forty-nine children diagnosed with LN by routine tissue immunolfuorescence, light microscope, and electron microscope were included, and 30 healthy children were included as control group. The pathological classiifcations were performed according to the ISN/RPS 2003 LN pathological classiifcation criterion. According to the Katafuchi evaluation method, the semi quantitative assessment of glomerular and kidney tubule damage was carried out, and the degree of vascular damage was evaluated at the same time. Double antibody sandwich method was used to detect the concentration of serum myocardin.Results The glomerular and kidney tubules damage in children with LN were signiifcantly aggravated with higher pathological classification (P<0.05). Glomerular damage was positively correlated with renal interstitial damage (r=0.96, P<0.01). The degree of vascular damage was related to the degree of glomerular injury and renal interstitial injury, while it was no related with the results of clinical tests. There were different concentrations of myocardin among mild-, moderate-, severe-vessel damage and control groups (F=378.61,P<0.001), and the concentration of myocardin in moderate- and severe-vessel damage groups were obviously lower than those in control group and mild-vessel damage group (P<0.01) while there was no difference between control group and mild-vessel damage group (P>0.05). According to pathological type, there were signiifcant differences in the concentration of myocardial between control group and different pathological types (F=626.793,P<0.01). FromⅡ,Ⅲ,Ⅲ+Ⅴ,Ⅳ toⅣ+Ⅴ, the concentrations of myocardial were decreased systematically, and there were statistic differences between groups (P all<0.05).Conclusion The concentration of myocardin in children with LN can relfect the renal vascular damage to a certain extent. Elevation of myocardin concentration may be helpful for the repair of vascular damage.

Objective As members of CNEDERT, we were trusted to take the mission of medical rescue in April of this year in Yushu area of Qinghai province. As soon as we heard of the news of earthquake with shock of 7.1 on Richter scale happened on 14th April 2010, our team of 32 members from the General Hospital of Armed Police Force rapidly rushed to get there at 19 o'clock on 14th April. It is a cold plateau with 4000 meters in average above sea level. Of course, they would face many difficult problems and some of them could not be figured out in advance. It was really a new and big challenge. First of all, we had to bear the very low barometric pressure,threatening lives of team members. In order to fulfill the mission of medical rescue, and to prevent the acute mountain sickness (AMS) ,we monitored the physiological changes of every member. Method A total of 32 members aged from 27 - 42 years old with average age of (33.26 + 12.54) years, 6 male and 6 female, gathered at Peking, 50 meters above sea level, 6 hours ahead of getting to Yushu and received physical examination with measurements of SaO2, HR, Hb and breath holding test. The team worked in Yushu area for 13 days and returned back to Peking on 27th April at 13 o'clock. The measurements of SaO2, HR and He were kept on from 14th April to 4th May, 21 days in total. The occurrence of AMS was surveyed by questionnaire from 18 to 48 hours after arrival,and the AMSA was diagnosed and scored according to the Lake Louise consensus on the definition and quantification of altitude illness. When the score was equal or above 3, it was considered to be AMS. Our work activities included searching the victims under the collapsed building, carrying out treatment and operation as soon as possible in the mobile hospital, doing medical round visiting, public health and disease prevention, work of joint rescue of multiple professions and psychological counseling. Results Of them 26 (81.25%) members suffered from AMS of various severities and few of them had pulmonary edema and hematuria, and those with SaO2 below 60% were sent down to the plain of low level above sea. The average level of SaO2 at Peking was ( 98.21 + 2.63) %, and it suddenly dropped to (66.31 ± 4.24)% on the first day of entering Yushu area, and from the 2nd day on, it gradually increased to (84.80 ± 4.20)% on the 13th day of stay in Yushu. On the 14th day, we returned back to Peking, the average SaO2 gradually went up from ( 85.57 + 2.73) % to (85.70 + 3.11 ) % on the 15th day,(87.93±2.63)% on the 17th day, (92.21 ±3.62)% on the 18th day, and (98.2333 ± 1.78)% On the 21st day (5th May ). At plain the average HR was (78 ± 11 ) beats/min, and it went up abruptly to ( 121 ± 18) beats/min on the first day of arrival to Yushu, and from the 2nd day on, it slowly lowered down to (99± 12) beats/min at the end day of stay in Yushu area. When we got back to Peking, the average HR gradually normalized from (91± 18) beats/min to (77 + 16) beats on the 5th May. The average Hb in Peking was ( 118 ± 32) g/L, and it gradually increased to ( 137 ± 18) g/L on the 5th day and to ( 161 ± 27) g/L on the 11th day after arrival, and it gradually dropped to (127:± 13) g/L on the 17th day and to (120± 13) g/L on the 21st day. Various measures were taken to treat and prevent the AMS with Chinese herbal medicines such as hongjingtian (Rholiola sacra [Prain ex Hamet] Fu), droplet-sized pill of danshen (salva miltiorrhiza Bge), slice of xiyangshen (Panax quinquefolium L)for lozenge which had some effect of minimizing the symptoms of AMS, and with easily digestible diet catered for in less amount of food in each meal and more meals every day, and diet was composed of mainly carbohydrate and vitamins. Large amount of fluid was required at least 4000 - 6000 mL daily guided by the number of urination at least once or twice a day. For the severe case with shortness of breath and sense of oppression over chest, the oxygen inhalation and intravenous glucose saline with small dose of hydrocortisone were given. Conclusions There were great changes in SaO2, HR and Hb of individuals rushed into high altitude area from plain of low level above sea in a short length of time. But those individuals had the capability of adaptation to ameliorate bit by bit those changes day by day until 13 days of stay, the end of stay at high altitude. On that day, the levels of SaO2, HR and He were still far away from normal. And those changes took 6 days to resume the original levels after the members retumed to the plain. Of them, 81.25% (26/32) members suffered from AMS of various severities. Various measures taken to treat and prevent the AMS are very important. In addition, working at high altitude area, the medical equipment and facilities should be miniaturized for easy portability on the rugged and narrow footpath in order to preserve the energy of medical members.

Aim To investigate the effects of dual COX-2/5-LOX inhibitor darbufelone on the inhibition of gastric adenocarcinoma in vitro.Methods MTT assay was used to detect the inhibition of gastric adenocarcinoma cell line SGC-7901 by darbufelone in different concentrations and at different times.TUNEL staining was used to evaluate the apoptosis of SGC-7901 cells.The changes of 5-LOX and COX-2 mRNA expression were studied by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction.5-LOX and COX-2 protein expressions were analyzed by immunocytochemistry in SGC-7901 cells.Results darbufelone could decrease the proliferation significantly in a dose-dependent and time-dependent manner in SGC-7901 cells.After treating SGC-7901 with darbufelone at concentration of 1.5?10-5,1.0?10-5,5?10-6 mol?L-1 for 72 hs,apoptosis index(%) of SGC-7901 was(30.3?2.1)%,(23.0?2.0)%,(15.0?1.5)%,respectively,which was significantly higher than(0.6?0.1)% that in control group(P

Objective:To know about the prevalence rates of depression and anxiety and its related factors a-mong human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected men who have sex with men (MSM)in China.Methods:Under the help of MSM group,totally 600 HIV-infected MSM were recruited by snowballing sample among HIV-positive MSM,and 541 effective electronic questionnaire were received.Participants completed self-made question-naire of HIV-positive MSM healthy condition which included social demographic and health behavior et al.The Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale(CES-D)and Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS)were used to survey the condition of depression (CES-D score ≥16)and anxiety (SAS score ≥50)respectively.Results:The percentage of having depression and anxiety symptoms was 44.7% (242 /541)and 25.1% (136 /541)respective-ly.Multiple unconditioned logistic regression analysis showed that the risk of having depressive symptoms included considered suicide in the past year (OR =3.31,95%CI:1.73 -5.34),nondisclosure their HIV infection to male primary sexual partners (OR =0.47,95%CI:0.30 -0.73),discrimination experience (OR =1.19,95%CI:1.11 -1.29).Compared with monthly income of 1500 yuan or less,participants who earned >5000 yuan monthly were less likely to have depressive symptoms (OR =0.34,95%CI:0.17 -0.71).Factors associated with anxiety symp-toms included considered suicide in the past year (OR =2.43,95%CI:1.40 -4.21),accepted antiviral therapy (OR=1.74,95%CI:1.06 ~2.84),discrimination experience (OR =1.12,95%CI:1.05 ~1.20).Participants earned >5000 yuan monthly (OR =0.44,95%CI:0.20 ~0.94)could decrease the risk of having anxiety symptom compared with whose monthly income of 1500 yuan or less.Conclusion:The prevalence rate of depression and anxiety symp-tom among HIV-infected MSM is high and need more attention.It may be helpful to call for the strategy of promo-ting mental health on decreasing social discrimination,communicating with sexual partners,and improving their eco-nomic status.

Objective To explore the effect of stromal cell-derived factor-1 ( SDF-1 ) in combination with transplantation of peripheral blood endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) for the treatment of nude mice hindlimb ischemia. Methods Hindlimb ischemia model was established in nude mice, mice were then divided into five groups randomly: ischemic control group, peripheral blood EPCs transplantation group, SDF-1 local application group, SDF-1 combined with EPCs group, SDF-1 combined with AMD3100 treated EPCs group. Local CD34+VEGFR+ cells in the hind gastrocnemius were detected at day 3,7 after transplantation. The intensity of neovasculorization were evaluated at day 28. Results The double-positive cells number of control group, EPCs group, SDF-1 group, SDF-1 + EPCs group, SDF-1 + AMD3100 EPCs group were 0.00 ±0.00,5. 30 ±0.65,0.00 ±0.00,10. 31 ±0. 63,1. 86 ±0. 17 at day 3 and 0. 00 ±0. 00, 7.05 ±0. 18,0. 00 ±0. 00,11. 81 ±0. 53,2. 83 ±0. 48 at day 7. The number of new capillaries were 3. 00 ± 0.13,6.15 ± 0. 04,6. 20 ± 0. 10,10. 65 ± 0.08,6. 21 ±0. 08 at day 28. SDF-1 increased the CD34 + VEGFR+ cells (P ＜0. 05) and the number of new vessels (P ＜0.05). SDF-1 combined EPCs further increased the number of new vessels (P ＜ 0. 05 ). Conclusions SDF-1 enhances blood vessel formation and promotes angiogenesis by promoting EPCs homing, which could be blocked by AMD3100.

Objective To investigate the risk factors for postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) in colorectal cancer patients.Methods From January 2014 to June 2016,risk factors for postoperative pulmonary complications in colorectal cancer patients were analyzed retrospectively.The data was analyzed by individual elcment,then the statistically significant factors were analyzed by logistic regression analysis.Results Forty-one out of 352 had PPCs,the incidence rate was 11.6％.The incidence of PPCs was significantly increased in patients with age over 65,a history of smoking,the combined chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD),body mass index (BMI) over 25 kg/m2,operation time (3 h) or longer and preoperative neoadjuvant chemotherapy (P ＜ 0.05) with single factor analysis.In the six kinds of risk factors,age over 65,body mass index (BMI) over 25 kg/m2,COPD and operation time (3 h) or longer wcre the independent risk factors for multiple factors analysis (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion For elderly patients with colorectal cancer,especially with a history of COPD or obesity,if the operation time was long,more attention should be paid for the happen of PPCs.

Objective To understand the status quo of ICU nurses career situations and its influencing factors in Shandong province. Methods A total of 247 ICU nurses were investigated by questionnaires on career condition. Results The career condition score was 79.19 ± 11.63. In addition, statistical significances were revealed by occupational career questionnaire of ICU nurses in different aspect of the scores with age, gender, working years in the ICU, access years to ICU nurses specialist, whether to participate in career training. The scores of career condition and career identity ICU nurses were different, the 40-years-older group was higher than 31-40 years group (P=0.007, P=0.005). The dimension scores of male nurses organizational commitment was higher than that of female nurses(P=0.002). The scores of career condition whose ICU working life more than 16 years were higher than those of within 5 years(P=0.013). The career condition scores of the ICU nurses with access years of specialist qualifications 7-9 years was higher than those of within 3 years(P=0.011). Conclusions The career condition score of ICU clinical nurse specialists was at a medium level, it still needs to be further improved, managers should pay attention to the different levels of nurses to provide career training, in order to promote the professional development of critical care nurses.

Objective To investigate the clinical characterstics of bone Langerhans-cell histiocytosis (LCH) and evaluate its diagnosis,therapy and prognosis.Methods 25 cases with biopsy confirmed bone LCH during the last 8 years were retrospectively analyzed.Results The patients included 18 males and 7 females,13 children and 12 adults,ranging from 1.5 to 55 years old with a median age of 17.Cases with unifocal lesions were 17,including 11 cases of skull LCH,and the remaining 8 were with multifocal lesions.First symptoms were predominantly pain and local masses,and rarely constitutional symptoms.The manifestation of radiography was osteolytic bony lesions.12 cases had masses in soft tissues.Patients with solitary lesions underwent surgical operation,followed by radiotherapy or chemotherapy.Cases with multifocal lesions received chemotherapy and radiotherapy.Pathological examination showed proliferation of well differentiated histiocytes,and large numbers of infiltrating eosinophils.Positive rates of CD1a,S100,Vimentin and CD68 were higher in immunohistochemistry.Patients with restricted involvement in bones can achieve a satisfactory therapeutic effect.2 cases died when multiple systems were compromised.Conclusion Bone LCH occurs predominantly in children and teenagers,involves solitary bones,and morbidities in males are much higher than females.Skull is most commonly affected.Principal clinical manifestations are pain and local masses.Diagnosis of bone LCH depends on microscopic examination.Combination therapy appears to be an effective method of treatment.Prognosis of disease is related to the degree of bone involvement,histological classification and simultaneously encroachment of other organs.Most patients have good prognosis.

Objective To analyze characteristics and prophylaxis of pulmonary embolism (PE) after greater saphenous vein ligation and stripping.Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical characteristics and treatment of 11 inpatients with postoperative PE in Anhui Provincial Hospital and other hospitals from January 2008 to June 2013.Results In this group 6 patients died after failed cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and other treatments,the mortality was 54.5％.5 patients recovered after anticoagulation,thrombolysis and other treatments.During the process of thrombolysis,floating thrombus was found within the femoral vein in 2 patients and inferior vena cava filter was implanted.After 8-25 months follow-up,all 5 patients were free of difficulty of breathing,chest tightness,chest pain and other symptoms.Among many clinical manifestations,dyspnea (90.9％) was the most common,other clinical manifestations included chest pain (27.3％),syncope (18.2％),sudden death (18.2％).There was no typical triad of dyspnea,chest pain and hemoptysis in these patients.Conclusions Early diagnosis and early treatment of PE are most important to decrease mortality and to improve the prognosis of patients suffering from postoperative PE.
