Objective To evaluate the efficacy of entecavir treatment on hepatitis B patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure. Methods Eighty-four hepatitis B patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure were treated with entecavir 0.5 mg daily and Other routine drugs. Another 99 hepatitis B patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure were treated with only routine drugs as control. The survival, liver functions, hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA level, prothrombin time (PT) were observed. The survival rates of patients with early, middle or late stage of liver failure were analyzed. The comparison of rates were done using chi-square test. The numeration data were compared by t test. The survival rates were compared using Kaplan-Meier method. Results Among patients with early stage of acute-on-chronic liver failure, the survival rate in treatment group was 63.3% (31/49), which was significantly higher than that in control group (39.7%, 23/58) (χ2=5.923, P=0.015). Among patients with middle stage of acute-on-chronic liver failure, the surviral rate in treatment group was 63.0% (17/27), which was significantly higher than that in control group (35.1%, 13/37) (χ2=4.854, P=0.028). Among patients with late stage of acute-on-chronic liver failure, four out of eight cases survived in treatment group, while one out of four cases survived in control group. In patients with serum total hilirubin (TBil) level > 342 μmol/L, the survival rate was 56.0% in treatment group, which was significantly higher than that in control group (26.8%) (χ2=9.351,P=0.002). At week 4 of the treatment, the HBV DNA reduction in treatment group was 3. 95 lg copy/mL, which was higher than that in control group (1.78 lg copy/mL) (t=5.847, P=0.001). Conclusions Entecavir treatment could improve the survival rate of hepatitis B patients with early or middle stage of acute-on-chronic liver failure. And the further study with larger population is needed in patients with late stage of liver failure. In addition, entecavir therapy could also improve the survival rate of patients with TBil >342 μmol/L.

Objective: To detect anti tubular basement membrane antibodies in sera from patients with tubulointerstitial nephritis (TIN) and investigate its clinical significance. Methods: The sera were studied from 46 patients with renal biopsy proven TIN. The normal human renal cortex was obtained from patients with nephroectomy, far from carcinoma. Tubules were isolated by a differential sieving technique. The fragments of renal epithelia were removed from tubular basement membrane enriched materials by sonication and centrifugation. Tubular basement membrane antigens were solubilized with 6 mol/L guanidine HCl. The soluble proteins were used as antigens in Western blot analysis to detect autoantibodies in sera from patients with TIN. The clinical characteristics of positive and negative patients were statistically analyzed. Results: Eleven patients with tubulointerstitial nephritis had anti tubular basement membrane antibodies by Western blot analysis, and seven protein bands could be blotted by the TIN sera. The positive prevalence of anti 55?10 3 antibody (63.8%) was higher than that of other antibodies. Eight of 27 (29.6%) patients with acute tubulointerstitial nephritis and four of 19 (21.1%) patients with chronic tubulointerstitial nephritis had anti tubular basement membrane antibodies. ESR,serum IgG and IgM in patients with acute TIN with positive anti tubular basement membrane antibodies were higher than those of the negative group There was no significant difference in the other clinical variables such as gender,age,hemoglobin,complement C 3,serum IgA,serum creatinine,blood urea nitrogen and creatinine clearance in patients with acute TIN between the positive and negative groups .There was no significant difference in clinical variables mentioned above in patients with chronic TIN between the positive and negative groups. Conclusion: Circulating anti tubular basement membrane antibodies could be detected in sera from some patients with TIN, and autoimmunity may play a role in the pathogenesis of TIN.

Objective To investigate the prevalence rate of complications in children with cerebral palsy (CP).Methods 80 CP children were recruited.Their parents were interviewed for high risk factors and feeding his- tory.Each case was assessed neurologically for type of CP and diagnosed for complications.And all cases were detect- ed by magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)of the brain.Results Among 80 patients,60 cases(75%)suffered from complications,the majority patients had difficulty in taking in food,intelligence retardation,hearing impediment and vision impediment.The prevalence rate of complications with mixed CP was 85 %.MRI abnormalities of the brain were accounted for 74.5 % and periventrieular leakomalacia(PVL)was more common(45.1%).Conclusion This study suggested timely rehabiliatation and interventions must be started to significantly improve the levels of intelli- gence.And the epilepsy and nonepileptic events must be identified to avoid mistakes in diagnosis.

Objective To investigate the effects of external fixator with dynamic device under low frequency and controlled micromovement on the callus calcification and mechanical property of healing bone.MethodsForty-five sheep were performed transverse osteotomy with a gap of 2 mm on the mid-shafts of both tibias,and the hind limbs were fixed with unilateral external fixators connected to a controlled micromovement device.Ten days after osteotomy,one hind limb of each sheep was randomly selected for micromovement(30 min/d).According to different micromovement frequencies,the sheep were randomly divided into 3 groups: 0.5 Hz group,1 Hz group and 5 Hz group(n=15).The amplitude of micromovement was 0.25 mm and the micromovement stopped by the end of the fourth week postoperation.The other hind limb of each sheep was served as control group without micromovement.Morphometry of callus was done at the end of 4,6 and 9 weeks after osteotomy.Bone formation velocity,bone mineral density and biomechanical properties were compared at the end of 9 weeks.Results The areas of mineralized bone and osteoid in different miromovement groups were larger than that of control group at the end of 4,6 weeks postoperation(P

Objective To explore the influence of type 2 diabetes mellitus combined with subclinical hypothyroidism on diabetic vascular complications.Methods One hundred and two patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were selected.The serum free triiodothyronine (FT3),free thyroxine (FT4),thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH),anti-thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPO-Ab),thyroglobulin antibody (TG-Ab) levels were measured by chemiluminescence method.The patients were divided into type 2 diabctes mellitus combined with subclinical hypothyroidism group (47 cases) and type 2 diabetes mellitus with normal thyroid function group (55 cases) according to the thyroid function.The glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c),total cholesterol (TC),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C),triacylglycerol (TG),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C),urea nitrogen,creatinine and albumin levels were measured.The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was calculated according to the formula of modification of diet in renal disease (MDRD).The presence of diabetic retinopathy was examined by fundus examination,and the presence of lower limb artery lesions was measured by vascular ultrasound.All indicators were compared between 2 groups.Results There were no statistical differences in age,disease course,HbA1c,body mass index (BMI),TC,TG,HDL-C,LDL-C,incidence of lower limb artery lesions and incidence of diabetic retinopathy between 2 groups (P＞ 0.05).TheeGRF in type 2 diabetes mellitus combined with subclinical hypothyroidism group was significantly lower than that in type 2 diabetes mellitus with normal thyroid function group:(83.74 ± 21.55) ml/(min· 1.73 m2) vs.(115.02 ± 12.29) ml/(min· 1.73 m2),and there was statistical difference (t =4.274,P ＜ 0.01).The incidence of diabetic nephropathy in type 2 diabetes mellitus combined with subclinical hypothyroidism group was significanlty higher than that in type 2 diabetes mellitus with normal thyroid function group:48.9％ (23/47) vs.23.6％(13/55),and there was statistical difference (x2 =7.103,P＜ 0.01).Logistic regression analysis showed that subclinical hypothyroidism was a risk factor for diabetic nephropathy (OR =0.524,95％ CI 0.12-0.93,P ＜ 0.05),but it was not the risk factor for diabetic retinopathy (OR =0.618,95％ CI0.19-2.16,P =0.475) and lower limb artery lesions (OR =0.485,95％ CI 0.32-2.13,P =0.689).Conclusion Subclinical hypothyroidism in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus has no obvious effect on lower limb arterial complications and diabetic retinopathy,but may increase the risk of diabetic nephropathy.

Objective To explore the clinical value of urethral dilation in treatment of female bladder outlet obstruction. Methods Thirty-five female bladder outlet obstruction patients were selected, and all the patients failed for more than 1 month inαreceptor blocker treatment. The patients underwent urethral dilation under local anaesthesia, once a week, for a total of 12 times. The international prostate symptom score (IPSS), quality of life score (QOL) and residual urine volume before and after treatment were examined. Results The IPSS, QOL and residual urine volume after treatment were significantly lower than those before treatment: (10.23 ± 6.31) scores vs. (21.41 ± 3.71) scores, (2.31 ± 0.65) scores vs. (5.43 ± 0.60) scores and (20.73 ± 10.59) ml vs. (85.23 ± 12.15) ml, and there were statistical differences (P<0.01). Conclusions The urethral dilation is one of the effective treatments for female bladder outlet obstruction patients who fail in αreceptor blocker treatment. It can make a part of patients avoid invasive examination and surgery, and it is worth to be popularized in clinic and primary hospital.
