Objective To discuss nursing of patients with early severe acute pancreatitis undergoing laparoscopic treatment and in comparison with open surgery. Methods Totally 56 patients with early se-vere acute pancreatitis were admitted from October 2002 to October 2007,among which 30 cases (group A) received laparoscopic.treatment and the other 26 cases (group B) was given open surgery.The average time of hospital stay,incidence of complication and re-operation were compared between the two groups. Re-sults The average time of hospital stay,incidence of complication and re-operation of group A were lower than those of group B (P<0.05). Conclusions Treatment of severe acute pancreatitis with laparoscopy proved to be a desirable method in that it performs good effect with little trauma and low fatality.Other basic treatment,regulation of water and electrolyte balance and acid-base balance,enforcement of nutritional sup-port,fasting and gastrointestinal decompression should not be ignored.

OBJECTIVE To study the diagnostic and therapeutic conditions in a general hospital,and try to find out the measures to decrease cross infection in hospital. METHODS From Dec 2003 to Nov 2004,2 037 cases of infectious diseases were diagnosed and treated in our hospital.All these cases were analyzed. RESULTS Among the 2037 cases,the most common diseases were viral hepatitis and pulmonary tuberculosis.And others were infectious diarrhea,gonorrhea,syphilis,typhoid,paratyphoid,epidemic parotitis,bacillary dysentery,epidemic encephalitis B,measles,tetanus of newborn and rabies. CONCLUSIONS To control cross infection in hospital effectively,we must pay more attention to standardized management of infections diseases,strengthen the isolation and protective conciousness of medical personnel for infectious diseases,and tighten up the management of sterilization and isolation.

OBJECTIVEThis study investigates the immune status of T helper (Th) 17 cells in mice with periodontitis.

METHODSSeven-week-old C57BL/6 female mice were randomly divided into the control and periodontitis groups. Each group comprisedfour mice. Experimental periodontitis was induced in mice by oral infection with Porphyromonas gingivalis in the periodontitis group. Phosphate-buffered saline solution was used in the control group. All mice were sacrificed 4 weeks after the last P. gingivalis infection. CD4⁺retinoid-related orphan receptor (ROR) γτ⁺(Th17) cells were analyzed by flow cytometry. The protein expression of Th17 cell-related cytokine interleukin (IL)-17A was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbentassay (ELISA).

RESULTSFlow cytometry showed that the percentage of CD4⁺RORγτ⁺(Thl7) cells in all CD4⁺ cells and the cell number in gingival tissues, cervical lymph nodes (CLNs), and the peripheral blood obviously increased (P < 0.01) in the periodontitis group. ELISA showed that compared with the control group, the periodontitis group exhibited an obvious increase in the protein expression of IL-17A (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONTh17 cell-mediated cell response is enhanced, and the gingival tissues, CLNs, and the peripheral blood are probably the main locations of Thl7 cell-mediated cell response during the development of periodontitis.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of specific immunotherapy (SIT) to allergic rhinitis in children.Methods Sixty-four patients with mite allergy allergic rhinitis in children,were divided into two groups by random digits table:treatment group and control group,each group with 32 cases.Treatment group was given SIT with standardized allergen vaccine for 3 years on the basis of symptomatic therapy,control group only received symptomatic therapy.Observation indexs included rhinitis symptoms score,drug score,skin index (SI),serum specificity IgE (sIgE),peripheral eosinophil (Eos) counting,development of asthma and the new sensitization.Results The Eos counting,SI after treatment 3 years in treatment group were significantly better than those before treatment and those in control group after treatment 3 years[(0.14 ± 0.12) × 109/L vs.(0.74 ± 0.18) × 109/L,(0.78 ± 0.36) × 109/L and 1.03 ± 0.13 vs.1.51 ± 0.32,1.51 ± 0.37] (P ＜ 0.01).There was no statistically significant difference in sIgE between two groups (P ＞0.05).The rhinitis symptoms score,drug score in two groups after treatment 1,2,3 years were significantly better than those before treatment (P ＜ 0.01).The rhinitis symptoms score,drug score in treatment group after treatment 1,2,3 years were significantly better than those in control group(P ＜ 0.01).The rate of new sensitization in treatment group was significantly lower than that in control group [3.1％ (1/32)vs.34.4％ (11/32),P ＜ 0.01].Conclusion Keeping long-term SIT is effective and safe for children's allergic rhinitis induced by mite,it also prevents new allergen appeared and allergic rhinitis development for asthma.

Objective:To explore the effects of class career psychological guidance(CCPG)on the career planning abilities of college students.Methods:By random sampling and control study methods,one class of college students were regarded as the experimental class of subjects,the other class was regarded as the control.The experimental class received 3 months of group training of CCPG,while the control class did not.They were assessed with the effect assessment scale of CCPG and the experimental class was retested 3.5 months later.Results:The overall level of career planning abilities had been improved in the experimental class after 3 months of CCPG,such as in the career planning confidence and the ability to solve problems relating to career,not in the control class. Most of the improved factors in the experimental class were still good after 3.5 months.Conclusion:The class career psychological guidance has a positive role in promoting the career planning abilities of college students.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy of mite allergen specific immunotherapy (SIT) to patients of allergic rhinitis. METHOD: A total of 102 patients with mite allergy were recruited into the study. They were randomly divided into two groups: SIT group (n = 51) and ST (symptomatic therapy) group (n = 51). They were given SIT with standardized allergen vaccine for 3 years or only symptomatic therapy respectively. Observation items include: rhinitis symptom scores, drug score, skin prick test result, serum specificity IgE (sIgE), peripheral eosinophil counting. The development of asthma and new allergens sensitization was also assessed. RESULT: The blood eosinophil numbers, skin test index, rhinitis symptom scores and drug scores were all decreased significantly after the treatment with SIT for 3 years compared to that of ST group (P < 0.01). Although the level of serum slgE was decreased, no statistic diferences were found. No patients developed asthma in SIT group, and only 2.1% of patients had new allergen sensitization; 17.4% of those in ST group developed asthma, 32.6% had new sensitization. No severe adverse events occurred. CONCLUSION Keeping long-term SIT is effective and safe for patients with allergic rhinitis induced by mite, which can also prevent new allergen sensitization and development for asthma.

Objective To study the clinical and endoscopic features of Gastric mucosa－ associated lymphoid tissue(MALT) lymphoma. Methods Clinical and endoscopic data of thirty two patients with gastric MALT lymphoma diagnosed pathologically after opration were analyzed. Results Patients with gastric MALT lymphoma had a median age of 51.3years with male predominance and a bimodal age distribution pattern, aged 30～ 39 and 60～ 69 years respectively. The symptoms were not characteristic.The tumor originated from antrum in 12 cases,corpus in 8 and multifocal lesions were found in 12 instances. The tumor appeared infilitrative in 12, ulcerative in 16 and nodular in 6 patients endoscopically. Lymphatic metastasis was detected in infiltrative type, before the serosa was involved. Immunohistochemistry showed B－ cell lymphoma in all the 32 cases.And Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori) infection was found in 27 cases(84.4％ ).Nocorrelation was found between endoscopic types and manifestations.Metastasis to local lymph nodes was found early in infiltrative tumor.Conclusions It is suggested that H.pylori infection may play a role in the pathogenesis of gastric MALT lymphoma.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of allergen specific immunotherapy (SIT) in the treatment of allergic rhinitis. Methods A total of 132 patients with seasonal ragweed allergic rhinitis were enrolled in this study. The patients were randomly divided into two groups. SIT group, in which 68 patients were treated with ragweed SIT for six months before July for 3 years. ST (symptomatic therapy) group, in which 64 patients were treated with ST during seasonal symptomatic period. The healthy control group included 40 subjects. The levels of serum total IgE (tIgE), specific IgE (sIgE), ECP, IgG and IL-4, IL-5, IFN-? were measured, and eosinophil numbers were counted. The symptom score, lung-function test and skin prick test were performed before and after the treatment. Results The elevated levels of tIgE, ECP, IL-4, IL-5 in the sera and eosinophil counts in peripheral blood of the patients were significantly reduced, whereas the levels of IgG and IFN-? were increased following SIT. The levels of serum sIgE were not changed in both SIT and ST groups. 30.88% of the patients were clinically cured, the effective rate was 41.18%, the improvement rate was 20.59% after SIT, and only in 7.39% of patients there was no clinical improvement. In 16.18% of patients there were mild side effects to SIT. In the ST group, there was on change in all the laboratory results and clinical symptoms, and 25% of the patients developed asthma. Conclusion SIT was able to improve the symptoms and laboratory results of the patients with allergic rhinitis. The results indicated that SIT may be an effective and safe therapy for patients with allergic rhinitis.
