Objective To analyze the prevention and control condition of infectious diseases of national health cities of prefecture and county level and non-national health cities in Shandong province according to the requirement to create national health cities.Methods To select 15 cities in Shandong province as the research object,including the 5 prefecture-level national health cities,5 county-level national health cities and 5 non-national health city closer to the national health situation.The survey status of infectious diseases,infectious morbidity and children′s vaccination status were analyzed,respectively.Results From 2005 to 2008,registration reporting rate,timeliness rate,accuracy rate and integrity rate of legal infectious diseases increased to 99％ or more.Direct reporting network coverage rate of 1infectious diseases and public health emergencies reached 100％.No type A and B infectious diseases outbreak occurred.The incidences of hepatitis B,dysentery and tuberculosis of national health city were all lower than the rates of non-state health cities and the national average level.The care rate of mobile children living more than 3 months and the immunization rate reached 100％ at county-level cities.Immunization rates of child 4 vaccines and hepatitis B vaccination were more than 99％ annually in the year 2007 and 2008.Conclusions The status of prevention and treatment of infectious diseases is effective.The national health city had a more powerful emergency response ability in Shandong province.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of extracellular regulating kinase (ERK) signaling pathway on the secretion of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in cultured rat hippocampal neurons induced by stromal cell derived factor-1 (SDF-1).

METHODSThe hippocampal neurons of newborn SD rats were cultured and identified in vitro; the phosphorylation level of ERK1/2 was examined by Western blot; ELISA was used to detect the effect of PD98059, a ERK1/2 specific blocker on GABA secretion of cultured hippocampal neurons and Western blot were adopted to measure the protein expression levels of glutamate decarboxylase (GAD65/67) and gamma aminobutyric acid transporter (GAT); after blocking ERK1/2 signaling pathway with PD98059; RT-PCR was used to detect the mRNA expression levels of GAT-1 and GAD65 after treated with PD98059.

RESULTSThe levels of ERKl/2 phosphorylation were increased significantly by SDF1 acting on hippocampal neurons, and CX-CR4 receptor blocker AMD3100, could inhibit SDF-1 induced ERK1/2 activation; SDF-1 could inhibit the secretion of GABA in cultured hippocampal neurons, and ERK1/2 specific inhibitor PD98059, could partly reverse the inhibition of GABA secretion by SDF-1. The effects of SDF-1 on cultured hippocampal neurons was to decrease the mRNA genesis of glutamic acid decarboxylase GAD65 and GABA transporter GAT-1, besides, ERK inhibitor PD98059 could effectively flip the effect of SDF-1. The results of Western blot showed that SDF-1 could inhibit the protein expression of GAT-1 and GAD65/67 in hippocampal neurons and the inhibition of GAT-1 and GAD65/67 protein expression could be partially restored by ERK1/2 blocker.

CONCLUSIONSDF-1 acts on the CXCR4 of hippocampal neurons in vitro, and inhibits the expression of GAD by activating the ERK1/2 signaling pathway, and this may represent one possible pathway of GABA secretion inhibition.

Objective:To analyse the methord and effects of intermaxillary traction(IMT)screws used in the treatment of jaw frac-ture.Methods:In the treatment of 1 68 cases of jaw fracture IMT screws were used for the restoration of normal and stable occlusion. The screw number,position,traction effect and postoperative complications of the treatment were analysed.Results:705 screws were used in 168 patients,4 screws were used in each of 147 cased (88%),6 in 12(7%),5 in 9(5%).336(47.7%)screws were fixed between the roots of first and second premolar,292(41 .4%)between the roots of canine and first premolar,50 (7.1%)be-tween the roots of second premolar and first molar,27(3.8%)between the other tooth roots.Normal postoperative occlusion relation was achived by the use of screws in 92 cases without traction.Occlusion disharmony or deviation was found in 76 cases by the used of screws and was restored to normlal by 1 4-day traction in 71 cases.The total efficiency of the treatment was 97%.Pain of the mucosa surrounding the screws was observed in 23 cases (1 3.7%).Root damage,traction screw loosening and adjacent tooth dislocation were observed in 1 3(1 .8%),1 1 (1 .6%)and 2(0.3%)cases respectively.Conclusion:For the fixation of IMT screws,the posi-tions between tooth root from canine to first molar were most common and safe.The fixation point should be in 5 ~8mm below the gin-gival margin.Use of 4-6 screws can meet treatment need.

Objective To explore the expression of TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB signaling and its correlation with the progression of acute intestinal graft-versus-host disease (iGVHD) after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation in mice.Method Recipient BALB/c female mice were lethally irradiated and were reconstituted within 4-6 h with a transplant of bone marrow cells (1 × 107) and different amounts of splenocytes (1 × 107,n =12 or 2 × 107,n =12) from MHC-mismatched C57BL/6 donors to induce iGVHD,and 6 healthy BALB/c mice served as controls.A globe survey observation of GVHD by survival,clinical manifestation,and histological detection was performed.RT-PCR,immunohistochemistry,and Western blotting technology were used to detect the mRNA and protein levels of TLR4,MyD88 and NF-κB p65 in the small intestine tissue.Result The exacerbation of iGVHD was associated with the increasing dose of allogeneic spleen lymphocytes.The mRNA expression of TLR4,MyD88 and NF-κBp65 was increased as the iGVHD progressed.All of them in severe iGVHD model were significantly increased as compared with the healthy controls (P＜0.05).The expression of corresponding proteins had the same tendency as mRNA.All of the three genes expression was not only positively correlated with each other,but also with the clinical GVHD score:TLR4 (R =0.814,P＜0.001),MyD88 (R=0.828,P＜0.001),and NF-κB p65 (R=0.568,P =0.034).Conclusion Excessive activation of TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway does exist in iGVHD,and the enhanced levels of gene transcription and translation are positively correlated with the deterioration of iGVHD.

Objective:To study the effects of the surgical treatment of nerve avulsion inside and outside the mandibular cannel.Methods:34 patients with trigeminal neuralgia of the third division,received neurotomy and avulsion of inferior alveolar nerve in the mandibular cannel above the lingual or through the mental foramen,concurrently with the avulsion of buccal nerve.Patients were fol-lowed up for 2-4 years.Results:All the operations were successfully completed,The wounds were well-healed.All patients felt that pain disappeared in the area innervated by inferior alveolar nerve.During the 2-4 years of follow-up,no recurrence was found.Conclusion:Inferior alveolar nerve neurotomy and avulsion in the mandibular cannel is simple,safe and effective in the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia of the third division.

Objective To observe the in vitro anti-Coxsackievirus B3m (CVB3m) effect of sophocarpine(SC) extracted from Sophora flavescens, a traditional Chinese herb. Methods HeLa cells were cultured and the micro-dose cytopathic effect (CPE) assays were applied to detect the toxicity of SC. CPE-inhibitory assays were used to observe the in vitro anti-CVB3m effect of SC. MTT and crystal assays were introduced to examine the anti-CVB3m effect of SC. HeLa cells were infected with CVB3m and added with SC in different concentrations 15 h later.The viability and number of survival of HeLa cells were determined by MTT and crystal violet assays, respectively. Results No toxicity was found on HeLa cells by SC with concentrations 100 ?g/mL, SC could accelerate and aggravate the CPE. SC could protect the CVB3m-infected HeLa cells with concentrations from 1.56 to 25 ?g/mL, and the viability and cell number measured by MTT and crystal violet assay in the SC-handled cells were higher and bigger than those in the virus infected ones. However, the inhibitory effect of virus was exacerbated with higher concentrations (50 and 100 ?g/mL), and the cell number and viability of the SC-handled cells were smaller and lower than those of the infected ones. Conclusion SC with a proper concentration has the in vitro anti-CVB3m effect and may protect HeLa cells from CVB3m infection.
