Human metapneumovirus (HMPV)is a recently discovered virus associated with respiratory tract infection. Most infections with HMPV occurred during winter and spring. Children, elderly subjects and immunosuppressed hostsare susceptible. The consequences of HMPV infections ranged from mild upper respiratory tract infection to severe bronchiolitis or pneumonia. There are three different kinds of methods for the diagnosis of HMPV infections, detection of virus antigen-antibody, virus isolation by culture, and RNA detection by reverse transcription-PCR. Symptomatic therapy is the main method of treatment.

Objective To investigate the inter-arm invasive blood pressure differences during hip replacement in patients with lateral position and its relationship with position.Methods Sixty-six patients having underwent hip replacement in orthopedic surgery with lateral position were enrolled.Invasive blood pressure measurements were obtained from bilateral radial artery in all patients every 5 minutes.Simultaneously bilateral invasive blood pressure measurements were obtained and compared.Results At supine position,systolic pressure,diastolic pressure and mean arterial pressure of the uninjured side were (128.16 ±20.09),(69.47 ± 8.64) and (89.03 ± 10.42) mmHg (1 mmHg =0.133 kPa);systolic pressure,diastolic pressure and mean arterial pressure of the injured side were (127.90 ± 20.44),(69.86 ± 8.81) and (89.21 ± 10.71) mmHg.There was statistical difference in inter-arm diastolic pressure (P ＜ 0.05),but inter-arm systolic pressure and mean arterial pressure had no statistical differences (P ＞ 0.05).At left-lateral position,systolic pressure,diastolic pressure and mean arterial pressure of the uninjured side were (129.12 ± 21.93),(69.23 ± 8.92) and (89.19 ± 11.35) mmHg;systolic pressure,diastolic pressure and mean arterial pressure of the injured side were (129.01 ± 21.72),(69.51 ± 9.02) and (89.34 ± 11.35) mmHg.There was statistical difference in inter-arm diastolic pressure (P ＜ 0.05),but inter-arm systolic pressure and mean arterial pressure had no statistical differences (P ＞ 0.05).At right-lateral position,systolic pressure,diastolic pressure and mean arterial pressure of the uninjured side were (128.78 ± 20.34),(69.54 ± 9.06) and (89.29 ± 10.82) mmHg;systolic pressure,diastolic pressure and mean arterial pressure of the injured side were (128.27 ± 20.56),(70.00 ± 9.09) and (89.43 ± 10.89) mmHg.There were statistical differences in inter-arm systolic pressure and diastolic pressure (P ＜ 0.05),but inter-arm mean arterial pressure had no statistical difference (P ＞ 0.05).The bilateral radial artery blood pressure difference under different positions was ＜ 1 mmHg,and had no clinical practical significance.There was no correlation between blood pressure and age,sex,body mass index.Conclusion Bilateral radial artery in the same patients with invasive blood pressure has no clinical difference,and patients with lateral position operation for radial artery puncture pressure need not consider the differences of blood pressure between arms.

Objective To investigate the value of acoustic radiation force impulse (ARFI) in differential diagnosis between benign and malignant breast tumors.Methods Virtual touch tissue imaging (VTI) and virtual touch tissue quantification (VTQ) of ARFI elastography were used to estimate the properties and extent and measured the shear wave velocities (SWV) of the breast tumors,respectively.Results The mean SWV of breast cancer and benign lesion were (7.84 ±2.51)m/s and (2.79 ±0.92)m/s.There was significant difference in the SWV between benign and malignant breast tumors (P ＜ 0.01).The area under curve (AUC) of receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of the SWV in differentiating benign from malignant breast tumors was 0.886.With SWV 4.4 as cut-off,the sensitivity,specificity,accuracy,positive predictive value and negative predictive value in the diagnosis of malignant from benign breast tumors were 78.7％,100％,91.7％,100％,88％,respectively.Conclusions ARFI elastography could reflect the elastic characteristics of breast tumors,which might be useful for the differential diagnosis between benign and malignant breast tumors.

Objective To investigate the influence of Fasudil on oxidative stress in patients with early-stage diabetic nephropathy. Methods 48 patients with earl-stage diabetic nephopathy were randomly divided into control group treated with Alpha-lipoic acid and treametn group with Fasudil. All patients were under strict control of blood glucose. Changes in the levels of serum cysc, urinal mALB and 8-OHdG were observed after two weeks treatment were compared between the two groups. Results Compared to pre-treatment, the content of serum cysc, urinal mALB and 8-OHdG were significantly decreased in both groups after treatment. There was no significant difference in the content of urine mAlb , CTGF and MCP-1 between the two groups before and after treatment (P > 0.05). Conclusion Fasudil may protect kidney through a mechanism by which the level of 8-OHdG in kidney is decreased and oxidative stress is alleviated.

Visceral hypersensitivity is the core pathogenesis process of functional gastrointestinal disorders( FGIDs). Numerous studies showed that psychological stress plays a key role in the development of visceral hypersensitivity. Brain center is the key part involved in psychological stress-induced visceral hypersensitivity, especially senior central sensitization. However,the specific pathophysiological mechanism remains unclear. This article reviewed studies on central role mechanism of psychological stress-induced visceral hypersensitivity.

The abnormal expression of gastrins and their receptors have close relationship with the occurrenceand the development of some colorectal neoplasms.The high expression of gastrins and their receptors promote colorectal neoplasms cell proliferation and inhibit apoptosis.The biological behavior is mainly rely on the abnormal expression of protein.Using differential proteomics can screen differential expression protein of high expression of gastrin-based colorectal neoplasms in the occurrence and development process,and then with the regulation of specific proteins to achieve the prevention and treatment of colorectal neoplasms purposes.

Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) has been developed for two decades in order to treat portal hypertension accompanying with upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage and refractory ascites.TIPS may cause the development of hepatic encephalopathy (HE).TIPS induces portalsystemic shunt and leads to hemodynamics chaos. Hepatic encephalopathy belongs to the complications of the portal hypertension. There are many possible predictors of the post-TIPS HE. The relationship between TIPS and HE was reviewed.

Flow cytometric immunophenotyping has evolved from two-parameter quantitative measurement of peripheral blood lymphocytes to five-or more parameter qualitative evaluation of bone marrow and lymph node in hematopathology.Leukemia/lymphoma immunophenotyping represents an important addition to histomorphology in the diagnosis,classification and monitoring of hematolymphoid neoplasms.The complexity of five-or more parameter analyses and the interpretation of the data rely on standardization and validation of the instrument,the reagent and the procedure.In addition,clinical flow cytometry laboratories in U.S.A are required to document proficiency testing,sample preparation as well as accuracy,specificity,sensitivity and precision of methodology.CLSI and UCCC recommend that each laboratory should validate its own qualitative and quantitative procedures.This paper introduces the procedures for validation and quality control in a clinical flow cytometry laboratory in the United States.

Objective To investigate the status of urogenital Ureaplasma urealyticum (Uu) infection and their drug tolerance in our area,so as to guide rational administration for the clinic.Methods Mycoplasma culture and drug susceptibility test were performed for 771 patients with urogenital infaction. The culture,identification and drug resistance of mycoplasma were carried out with one complex mycoplasma kit.Results The positive rate of Uu was 49.9%. The proportional percentage of males was 12.5% and the Uu positive rate was 22.3%,for females,the proportional percentage and Uu positive rate was 87.5% and 60.6% respectively. The population aged 21-40 was susceptible to Uu infection. The most sensitive antibioties to Uu was clindamycin (95.12%),followed by doxycycline (87.57%) and roxithromycin (86.24%).Conclusion The difference of Uu drug sensitivty was significant in different areas. So it is necessary to select antibioties by drug sensitivity. Clindamycin,doxycycline and roxithromycin may are used as preferred antibioties in treating Uu infection in our area. The drug-resistance status of spectinomycin and lincomycin was serious.
