Objective To investigate the effect of doxycycline on the Th1/Th2 cell balance in experimental allergic encepha-lomyelitis(EAE)rats.Methods Forty female Wistar rats were randomly divided into the EAE control group,low,medium and high does DOX treatment groups,10 cases in each group.The onset situation in rats was observed.The IL-4 and IFN-γlevels secreted by peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC)at the peak stage were detected.The levels of IL-1β,IL-10,TNF-αin brain tissue,and the albumin content in cerebrospinal fluid and serum were detected.The QA value was calculated.Results In each DOX group,the clinical symptoms of rats were alleviated compared with the EAE control group.In each DOX group,the PBMC secreting IFN-γlev-el and IFN-γ/IL-4 ratio in the onset peak stage were lower than those in the EAE control group,while the IL-4 level was higher than that in the EAE control group(P <0.01).Compared with the medium-dose DOX group,the increase of IL-4 level in the high-dose DO group was unapparent(P >0.05),but the difference between other DOX groups had statistical significance(P <0.01).The IL-1βand TNF-αlevels of brain tissue and QA value during onset peak stage in various doses DOX groups were decreased compared with the EAE control group,while the IL-10 level was increased compared with the EAE control group(P <0.05).With the DOX dose increasing,the levels of IL-1β,TNF-αand QA value in various doses DOX groups became lower,the IL-10 level became high-er,there was statistically significant difference among various doses DOX groups (P <0.05 ).Conclusion DOX can obviously alle-viate the clinical symptoms of EAE rats,its mechanism may be related with that DOX could decrease the level of Th1 cytokine and increase the level of Th2 cytokine,correct the Th1/Th2 cell balance,thus protect the blood brain barrier(BBB).

Objective:To determine the prevalence of sarcopenia and explore related influencing factors of sarcopenia in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients.Methods:MHD patients aged ≥18 years old and receiving therapies of ≥3 months from March 2019 to December 2019 in Blood Purification Centre of Ruijin Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine were retrospectively enrolled in this study. General data of the patients were collected. Grip strength was measured by the Jamar dynamometer and the chair stand was measured by a chair of standard height to assess skeletal muscle strength and appendicular skeletal muscle mass was measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry. Baseline data between MHD patients with and without myasthenia were compared. Logistic regression analysis method was used to analyze the influencing factors for sarcopenia in MHD patients.Results:A total of 125 MHD patients were enrolled, with 68 males (54.4%), age of (59.4±14.9) years and median dialysis age of 51.0(23.5, 101.0) months. Sarcopenia was diagnosed in 39 cases (31.2%). Compared with MHD patients without sarcopenia, age, tumor necrosis factor-α, von Willebrand factor (vWF) and proportion of using α ketones were higher, and serum carbondioxide combining power (CO 2CP), prealbumin, albumin and proportion of regular exercise were lower in MHD patients with sarcopenia (all P<0.05). Multivariable logistic regression analysis results showed that low CO 2CP ( OR=0.717, 95% CI 0.576-0.892, P=0.003), high vWF ( OR=1.037, 95% CI 1.016-1.058, P<0.001) and no regular exercise ( OR=0.309, 95% CI 0.118-0.810, P=0.017) were independent influencing factors of sarcopenia in MHD patients. Conclusions:The prevalence of sarcopenia in MHD patients is high. Low CO 2CP, high vWF and no regular exercise are independent influencing factors for sarcopenia in MHD patients.

This study was aimed to explore clinical functions of consensus-based clinical practice guidelines (CB CPGs) in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). Under the guidance of the State Administration of TCM, 42 TCM hospitals in China had conducted a questionnaire survey for 73 CB CPGs and 2993 questionnaires had been included and analyzed. According to the category of good, general and bad, the proportion of the good in improving safety performance was 69.43%, controlling cost was 58.57%, regulating medical behavior was 55.50%, improving clinical effectiveness was 46.74%. It was concluded that the CB CPGs had played a good role in improving safety performance and controlling cost in TCM clinical practice.

China is currently in a critical stage of controlling the outbreak of novel coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19). As ophthalmologists working in the center of Wuhan city, the virus’s front line, we recently found conjunctivitis in five COVID-19 patients of a total of 92 COVID-19 patients.One of these five patients had conjunctivitis as the first symptom and was then diagnosed with COVID-19.These observations suggest: the mechanism and pathway of transmission of the novel coronavirus need to be further clarified; the symptoms of conjunctivitis accompanying novel coronavirus infection and conjunctiva as an important entrance point of the virus need to be further verified; early diagnosis, implementation of medical isolation, and giving appropriate treatment to patients with asymptomatic and mild-symptom conjunctivitis are essential to prevent the spread of the epidemic; those with conjunctivitis symptoms should be distinguished from other types of viral conjunctivitis; strict personal protection measures should be taken; and more sensitive techniques should be developed as soon as possible for virus detection in tear and conjunctiva swabs.

As the frontline health care workers at the center of the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak, we have encountered many asymptomatic COVID-19 patients or patients with mild symptoms since December 2019.A number of COVID-19 cases with conjunctivitis or conjunctivitis as the first symptom have been observed in our clinical work.This paper reports the diagnosis and treatment of one COVID-19 patient with conjunctivitis as the first symptom and one COVID-19 patient with conjunctivitis.In case one conjunctivitis occurred at the third day after patient came in close contact with determined COVID-19 patient and visited an eye doctor, and the symptom of conjunctivitis following the topical administration of anti-viral eyedrops for 1 week, followed by COVID-19.Her 2019-nCoV RNA detection of nasopharynx swab was positive but that of conjunctival sac swab was a negative result.Case two had a positive epidemiological history and simultaneous onset of COVID-19 and conjunctivitis.She presented positive results of 2019-nCoV RNA detection in both nasopharynx and conjunctival sac swabs, and other lab results supported the diagnosis of COVID-19 but she had a normal CT findings of the chest.The ocular symptoms were disappeared after topical administration of anti-viral eyedrops for 1 week.

Objective Recent evidence has implicated Larp1,an RNA-binding protein,in cell motility and EMT therefore prompting the study of Larp1 in EOC.This project aims to examine the potential role of Larp1 in cell invasion.Methods Ovarian cancer cells SKOV-3 and OVCAR-3 were transfected with DNA constructs to overexpress Larp1 and transfect cells were used to assess the overexpression of Larp1 in cell invasion and metastasis using several functional assay.Results Larp1 overexpression in both OVCAR-3 and SKOV-3 cells appear to enhance the invasive ability of cells and the accumulation of Larp 1 in these chemoinvasive protrusions strongly suggests the potential role of Larp1 in invadopodia formation.Cell spot chemoinvasion assay demonstrated increased chemoinvasion of Larp1 overexpressing SKOV-3 and OVCAR-3 cells towards a gradient of TGF-β,EGF and bFGF.Conclusions With its potential role in EMT and cell invasion,a deeper understanding of the physiological role of Larp1 in cancer cell motility will be potentially beneficial in the diagnosis and treatments of ovarian cancer.

Objective To explore effects of strengthen pelvic floor muscle training on patients with urinary incontinence after transurethral anatomical enucleation of the prostate (TUAEP).Methods A total of 100 patients with urinary incontinence after TUAEP from October 2014 to March 2016 were randomly divided into control group and intervention group (50 respectively). Patients in control group received normal pelvic floor muscle training. Patients in intervention group received strengthen pelvic floor muscle training. Recovery of patients from urinary incontinence was analyzed using ICI-Q-SF at 1 week, 1 month and 3 months after training. Results Repeated measurement of variance analysis showed that scores of ICIQ and quality of life were significant different before and after the training in both groups (Ftime=832.918,287.139;P<0.05). Differences in scores of ICIQ and quality of life between two groups were statistically significant (Finterval=6.174,20.521;P<0.05). Measurements and interventions were not interacted (Finteraction=0.769,1.590;P>0.05). One month after training, 6 out of 50 cases (12.0%) in intervention group had urinary incontinence, while in control group 14 out of 50 cases (28.0%) had urinary incontinence. Three months after training, all the patients in intervention group recovered from urinary incontinence, while in control group 6 patients (12%) still presented urinary incontinence (P<0.05).Conclusions Strengthen pelvic floor muscle training improves the recovery of urinary incontinence in patients after TUAEP, with better effects than normal pelvic floor muscle training.
