Objective To master the area scope and epidemic situation of Kaschin-Beck disease (KBD) in Harbin,and to accumulate data and information for the midterm examination and evaluation of the 12th Five-Year Plan of the National Endemic Disease Prevention and Control.Methods In the original 10 counties (districts,cities) of Harbin with KBD,2 surveys were carried out from 2011 to 2015,5 townships were extracted in each county (district,city),3 villages were extracted in each township,clinical investigation and X-ray examination of 7-12 years old children were carried out;according to the criteria for Diagnosis of Kaschin-Beck Disease,a clinical survey was conducted in 2013 in the 10 counties (districts,cities) with KBD.According to the KBD prevalence and X-ray examination results in each county (district,city),reference to Criteria for Control of Kaschin-Beck Disease Areas,Criteria for Delimitation and Classification of Kaschin-Beck Disease Area,Evaluation Methods for Endemic Diseases Control and Elimination,the types of the disease areas,control and eliminating situation were determined;organization and management of the control and prevention measures were evaluated.Results Currently,there were 10 counties (districts,cities),373 villages,6 969 patients with KBD in Harbin.According to the KBD area division and control standard,369 villages were light KBD areas (prevalence of clinical degrees Ⅰ and above patients or detection rate of 7-12 children by X-ray for local residents ≤ 10％) and 4 villages were medium KBD areas (prevalence of clinical degrees Ⅰ and above patients or detection rate of 7-12 children by Xray for local residents ＞ 10％-≤20％).Clinical census showed that the people under 20 years had no cases with degree Ⅰ and above in each village,X-ray detection rate was 0 in 7-12 years old children,in line with the standards of history KBD areas.There were no clinical KBD cases in 7-12 years old children in all villages of KBD areas,positive detection rate of children by X-ray was 0 in the sampling KBD area villages,in line with the standards of eliminate technical standards of KBD area village.The management index scores of KBD were from 85 to 95 points in every area county (district,city),getting to the eliminating requirement which was more than 85 points.Conclusion The KBD areas have narrowed down and prevalence has declined significantly in Harbin,which has reached the area eliminating standards and the index of basically eliminating KBD proposed by the 12th Five-Year Plan.

Objective To investigate the effect of methylprednisolone on T helper 17 cell (Th17 cells) related cytokines (interleukin (IL)-23,17A,21,22,6,and tansforming growth factor (TGF)-β) in serum and cerebrospinal fluid from patients with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis and their effects on the pathogenesis.Methods We recruited relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis group (38 patients)and noninflammatory neurological disease group (20 controls),and detected the levels of IL-23,IL-17A,IL-21,IL-22,TGF-β and IL-6 in serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) with ELISA kit in both controls and patients before and after treatment by methylprednisolone.Results After treatment in relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis patients,IL-17A,IL-23,IL-21,and IL-22 levels in cerebrospinal fluid and serum were significantly decreased,however,they were still higher than that in the non-inflammatory neurological disease patients.TGF-β levels was significantly increased (serum:(17.2 ± 5.9) pg/ml vs (34.1 ± 6.5) pg/ml,t =14.351,P =0.000 ; CSF:(26.4 ± 4.7) pg/ml vs (73.2 ± 19.7) pg/ml,t =16.352,P =0.000).The levels of TGF-β in serum and CSF in patients before treatment were lower than those of in non-inflammatory neurological disease patients (serum:(30.2 ± 8.9) pg/ml,t =6.769,P =0.012 ; CSF:(3 1.4 ± 7.5) pg/ml,t =9.368,P =0.017).However,the levels of TGF-β in CSF in patients after treatment were significantly higher than those in non-inflammatory neurological disease patients (t =9.138,P =0.000).Correlation analysis showed that IL-23 and IL-17A were positive correlation in the serum of relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis patients before treatment.Moreover,positive correlations among IL-23,IL-17A and IL-21 were detected in the CSF of relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis patients before treatment.Conclusions Decreased levels of IL-23,IL-17A,IL-21 and IL-22,and elevated levels of TGF-β were detected in serum and CSF of patients with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis after methylprednisolone treatment.IL-23,IL-17A,IL-21,IL-22 and TGF-β might involve in the pathogenesis of relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis.

Objective In order to accumulate data for the final evaluation and acceptance of the Twelfth Five-Year Plan of National Endemic Disease Prevention and Control,we investigated the endemic scopes and basic situation of Keshan disease (KD) in Harbin.Methods According to the Criteria for Diagnosis of Keshan Disease (WS/T 210-2011),we conducted clinical survey of KD prevalence in 10 KD endemic counties in Harbin in 2013.2011-2015,we detected and searched for cases in 10 ward counties of Keshan disease.According to the Delimitation and Classification of Keshan Disease Areas and the Evaluation of Endemic Disease Control and Elimination,we determined the regional type,the situation of control and elimination of the disease,at the same time all KD patients were positioned by global positioning system (GPS).Results There were 2 KD endemic counties,12 endemic townships,and 37 KD patients in Harbin.All 12 townships were the light endemic regions of KD.Other townships were conformed to be the history regions with KD.The management index scores of KD reached the elimination requirements which were more than 85 points in every region county (city).Ten region counties got to technical standards for KD elimination.Harbin basically reached the index of KD elimination.The GPS satellite positioning of KD patients were concentrated in the 45.1-45.5 degrees north latitude,and 127.7-128.3 degrees east longitude.Conclusion The regions of KD endemic areas have narrowed down and the prevalence rate has declined significantly in Harbin,which have reached the basic elimination standards of KD by the 12th Five-Year Plan.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the characteristics and clinical significance of changes in gamma delta T cells in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB), including during the immune tolerant (IT) phase and the immune activated (IA) phase.

METHODSFlow cytometry was used to analyze the frequencies and absolute numbers of γδT cells and their subsets in peripheral blood and in liver from 80 CHB cases, including 20 IT carriers and 60 IA patients. Blood samples were obtained from all CHB cases and 5 healthy controls (HCs). Liver biopsies were collected from 22 IA patients and 5 IT carriers undergoing diagnosis, and from the 5 HCs.

RESULTSCompared to HCs and IT carriers, the IA patients displayed significantly lower levels of peripheral and intrahepatic γδT cells as well as the Vδ2 subsets. The levels of peripheral and intrahepatic VγδT cells were closely associated with the liver histological activity index and serum alanine aminotransferase levels.

CONCLUSIONγδT cells, especially the Vδ2 subsets, may play a protective role in decreasing liver damage in CHB patients.

Objective To investigate the main risk factors of respiratory complications in patients with cervical spinal cord injury so as to provide reference for early nursing assessment and personalized nursing intervention model. Methods A retrospective case series study was conducted on the clinical data of 303 patients with cervical spinal cord injury admitted to the Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University between January 2015 and September 2016. There were 248 males and 55 females, aged (44.9 ±13.8)years (range, 14-70 years). There were 109 cases at fracture site C14 and 194 cases at C5-8. According to ASIA classification, 131 cases were grade A, 26 cases grade B, 42 cases grade C, and 104 cases grade D. The duration from injury to operation was (23.2 ± 69.9) hours (range, 6-48 hours). Univariate analysis was performed on the risk factors of respiratory complications, including gender, age (14-54, 55-65, and 66-70 years old), occupation, hospital stay, smoking history, previous history, ASIA grade (grades A to D), injury cause, complications (abdominal distension, hyponatremia, hypoproteinemia, and anemia). Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the significant risk factors in the univariate analysis so as to further identify risk factors associated with respiratory complications. Results Univariate analysis showed that age (55-65 and 66-70 years), ASIA grade A, ASIA grade B, smoking history, injury cause, complications (abdominal distension, hyponatremia, hypoproteinemia, and anaemia) were related to respiratory complication of patients with cervical spinal cord injury (P ＜0.05). The gender, occupation, length of hospital stay, and previous history were not associated with respiratory complications of patients with cervical spinal cord injury (P＞0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that age between 55 and 65 years (OR = 3.989, P ＜ 0.05), age between 66 and 70 years(OR =0.301, P＜0.05), AISA grade A (OR=30.300, P＜0.05), ASIA grade B (OR =5.784, P ＜0.05), smoking history (OR=5.238, P ＜0.05), abdominal distension (OR = 1.975, P＜0.05), hypoproteinemia (OR =6.212, P ＜ 0.05), and hyponatremia (OR =3.233 ＜0.05) were independent risk factors for respiratory complications in patients with spinal cord injury. Except for ASIA classification, other factors might be easily ignored by doctors and nurses, leading to poor prognosis of patients. Conclusions Age (above 55 years), ASIA grades A and B, smoking history, abdominal distention, hypoproteinemia, and hyponatremia are the risk factors of respiratory complications in patients with cervical spinal cord injury. Based on the results, early nursing assessment can be carried out and personalized nursing measures can be taken to reduce the incidence of respiratory complications. It can also provide reference for constructing standardized nursing intervention model.

Objective To explore the variation and clinical value of the degradation of endothelial glycocalyx in the patients with septic shock. Methods A prospective case control study was conducted. Patients of 18 years or older diagnosed with septic shock and admitted to Department of Critical Care Medicine of Affiliated Hospital of Binzhou Medical University from June 2014 to May 2015 were enrolled. The levels of degradation products, including hyaluronic acid (HA) and heparin sulfate (HS), at 0, 6, 12, 24, 48 hours were determined, while 20 healthy people were enrolled and served as controls. The changes of HA and HS were analyzed in the patients with septic shock. The differences of HA and HS between survival group and death group after 28 days were also analyzed. The relationships between HA, HS and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score, arterial blood lactate (Lac), platelet, albumin were analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis. The receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted to assess the prognostic value of HA and HS for patients with septic shock. Results Thirty-one patients diagnosed as septic shock were enrolled, among whom 17 patients died after 28 days, with a mortality of 54.8%. The levels of HA and HS in patients with septic shock were increased significantly as compared with those of health control group, peaked at 48 hours, and the levels of HA and HS at 48 hours were significantly higher than those at 0 hour [HA (μg/L): 119.47±32.44 vs. 94.84±23.63, HS (μg/L): 72.83±19.03 vs. 58.83±16.63, both P < 0.05]. The levels of HA and HS at 0 hour and 48 hours in death group were significantly higher than those of the survival group [HA (μg/L): 130.42±27.67 vs. 93.29±29.80, 105.14±19.18 vs. 70.82±13.24; HS (μg/L): 67.23±25.01 vs. 39.23±14.58, 79.74±19.84 vs. 56.17±14.53, all P < 0.05]. The levels of HA and HS in patients with septic shock were remarkably positively correlated with the levels of TNF-α, SOFA score, Lac, and platelet, but were remarkably negatively correlated with albumin levels (r value of HA was 0.595, 0.462, 0.545, 0.466, -0.534, respectively; r value of HS was 0.607, 0.468, 0.563, 0.547, -0.455, respectively; all P < 0.05). It was demonstrated by ROC curves that the areas under ROC curve (AUC) of HA and HS at 0 hour and 48 hours for predicting the prognosis of patients with septic shock were 0.881, 0.940 and 0.833, 0.821, respectively, the sensitivities of HA and HS were 87.5%, 100.0% and 83.3%, 81.3%, respectively, and the specificities of HA and HS were 82.6%, 78.3% and 91.3%, 78.3%, respectively. Conclusions The concentrations of degradation products generated by endothelial glycocalyx in the blood of the patients with septic shock are remarkably increased. The elevated levels of the degradation products are closely associated with the severity of septic shock, microcirculation disturbance, and the levels of inflammatory factors.

Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of all the patients with tibial plateau fracture admitted to the Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University in the past 10 years.Methods The picture achieving and communication system was used to collect the general information and disease-related information from the hospitalized patients with tibial plateau fracture who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria from January 1,2009 to December 31,2018.The patients from January 1,2009 to December 31,2013 were assigned into group A while those from January 1,2014 to December 31,2018 into group B.The 2 groups were compared to find out the epidemiological characteristics and trends of tibial plateau fractures in the past 10 years in gender,age,occupation,injury cause and Schatzker classification.Results A total of 1,936 patients with tibial plateau fracture were included in the study,including 1,352 males and 584 femaleswith a male to female ratio of 2.32∶ 1.The peak age ranged from 50 to 59 years,with 40 to 49 years for males and 50 to 59 for females.There were 793 cases in group A (a male to female ratio of 1.89∶1) and 1,143 ones in group B (2.69∶1),showing a significant difference between the 2 groups in the male to female ratio (P ＜ 0.05).The peak age ranged from 40 to 49 years (25.09％,199/793) in group A and from 50 to 59 years (23.27％,266/1,143)in group B.There were significant differences between the 2 groups in the constituent ratios of age groups from ≥50 years (P ＜ 0.05).Physical workers accounted for the highest proportion in group A (57.12％,453/793) and group B (52.58％,601/1,143).There were significant differences between the 2 groups in the constituent ratios of occupations (P ＜ 0.05).In all the 1,837 patients with a definite injury cause,the fall and indoor activity accounted for the highest proportion(41.92％,770/1,837),the traffic accident(33.25％,248/769) in group A did and the fall and indoor activity(48.88％,522/1,068) in group B did too.There were significant differences between the 2 groups in the injury causes (P ＜ 0.05).Of all the 1,658 patients with X-ray films available,by the Schatzker classification,types Ⅱ and Ⅵ were the most common.Type Ⅵ accounted for the highest proportion in group A (33.25％,248/769) while type Ⅱ did in group B (48.88％,522/1,068).There were significant differences between the 2 groups in the proportions of Schatzker types (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The tibial plateau fractures admitted to the Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University in the past 10 years were more common in males than in females,and predominant in physical workers.Fall and indoor activity was the most common injury cause.Schatzker types Ⅱ and Ⅵ prevailed.The fractures showed an aging trend by comparing the former 5 years and the latter 5 years.
