Objective To analysis the features of Montreal classification,serum markers,treatment and prognosis of Chinese patients with Crohn's disease(CD),and to estimate the relationships between clinical classification and anti-sarccharomyces cerevisiae antibody(ASCA),treatment and prognosis.Methods A retrospective study of 102 consecutive definite CD eases were performed and all subjects were classified into subtypes according to Montreal classification.The results of ASCA,extra-intestinal manifestation,treatment and disease behavior at follow-up were recorded and compared among different subtypes.Results The A2 subtype(52.9%)was dominated in Chinese CD patients.Ileocolon location(40.2%)and stricture lesion (53.9%)were common.The complication rate was dependent on disease course(P＜0.05),and intestinal fistula was associated with disease location(P=0.074).B1 subtype had higher progressive rate than B2 subtype(P=0.018).ASCA was not associated with disease loeation,disease behavior,treatment and disease progression(P＞0.05).Conclusions Crohn's disease mainly attack young people with male predominance.Early-onset CD patients have higher ASCA positive rate and disease progressive rate.The disease behavior progresses associated with disease course,and the rate of complication and the increase of surgery.The penetrating behavior is the main cause for surgery.Montreal classification is useful to predict the disease course,the need for surgery as well as the prognosis.

Objective To observe the clinical effects of prostaglandin E1 on liver cirrhosis patients and evaluate its security. Methods 68 cases with liver cirrhosis admitted in Luqiao hospital were randomly divided into experimental group(34 cases)and control group(34 cases)equally. Patients in control group were received normal therapy,while in experimental group were added prostaglandin E1 on basis of normal therapy. The efficacy and adverse reactions were observed and compared. Results Compared with before treatment,the average value of albumin in two groups were increased obviously,which in experimental group from (27.9 ±4.1)g/L to (36.5 ±4.3)g/L,control group from (27.8 ±4.0)g/L to (31.7 ±4.2)g/L,the differences were significant(P<0.05 ),and the difference between two groups was significant(P<0.05 ),too. The content of alanine aminotransferase and aspartase aminotransferase in two groups were decreased significantly(P<0.05 ),and experimental group was more lower than control group(P<0.05 ). The number of effcacy in experimental group was 28 and account for 82.35%,while in control group was 1 1 and account for 32.35%,the difference was significant(P<0.05). Conclusion Prostaglandin E1 can improve liver function,and has good clinical effects and high security in treatment with liver cirrhosis patients.

Objective To investigate the incidence and risk factors of hallucination in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) by using a questionnaire. Methods Ninety-one patients with PD from outpatient and inpatient departments of Neurology and 38 healthy subjects were recruited. Mini-mental state examination (MMSE), unified Parkinson's disease rating scale-Ⅲ(UPDRS-Ⅲ), Hoehn-Yahr, interleukin 6 (IL-6) and C-reactive protein (CRP) were examined in all PD. According to the PPQ-B scores, the PD patients were divided into two groups:the hallucination group (PPQ-B≥1) and non-hallucination group (PPQ-B=0). Logistic regression model was used to explore the risk factors. Results Twen?ty-nine of 91 patients had hallucination and the incidence was 32%. Age and the levels of IL-6 and CRP were signifi?cantly higher in hallucination group than in non-hallucination group. Meanwhile, the duration of illness and MMSE were significantly higher in hallucination group than in non-hallucination group. Logistic regression revealed that the age and duration of illness were independent risk factors of hallucination and the Odds Ratios (OR) were 1.09 (95% CI:1.04~1.32, P<0.05) and 1.43 (95%CI:1.21~1.87, P<0.05), respectively. The risk of hallucination increased by 51%and 59%for each doubling of IL-6 and CRP levels in PD patients and the ORs were 1.51 (95%CI:1.13~2.11, P<0.05) and 1.59 (95%CI:1.07~2.66, P<0.05), respectively. Conclusions Controlling the levels of serum IL-6 and CRP plays an impor?tant role in delay or prevention of the hallucination of PD patients.

Objective To investigate the role of sonoporation and the deblic of microbubbles with perfluoropropane gas and albumin in the mechanisms of microbubble-mediated gene enhancement by experimenting in skeletal muscle in C57B10/mdx mice.

Purpose: The purpose of the current study was to explore the functions and potential mechanism of miR-451a in breast cancer (BC). Methods: Quantitative reverse transcription real-time polymerase chain reaction was used to analyze the expression of miR-451a in human normal mammary cells (MCF-10A) and BC cells. Colony formation assay, terminal-deoxynucleoitidyl transferase mediated nick end labeling assay and transwell assays were conducted to validate the effect of miR-451a on proliferation, apoptosis, migration and invasion of BC cells, respectively. RNA pull-down, RNA immunoprecipitation and luciferase reporter assays were applied to investigate the upstream and downstream mechanisms of miR-451a in BC cells. Results: MiR-451a was expressed at a low level in BC cells. Overexpression of miR-451a repressed BC cells proliferation, migration and invasion. Moreover, long non-coding RNA AC092127.1 acted as a sponge of miR-451a to enhance the expression level of AE binding protein 2 (AEBP2) that was demonstrated to be the target gene of miR-451a in BC cells. Finally, rescue experiments validated that miR-451a and AEBP2 involved in AC092127.1-mediated BC cell growth, migration and invasion. Conclusion In a word, AC092127.1/miR-451a/AEBP2 axis contributes to BC cell growth, migration and invasion. Our results may help to find novel potential targets for BC treatment.
