Objective To evaluate the effects of intrathecal TRESK gene recombinant adenovirus on inflammatory responses mediated by chemokine in the spinal cord of rats with neuropathic pain ( NP ) . Methods Thirty?six male Sprague?Dawley rats, weighing 200-250 g, were randomly divided into 6 groups (n=6 each) using a random number table: control group (group C); sham operation group (group S);NP group; TRESK?overexpressed adenovirus group ( group TRESK ); negative adenovirus group ( group Virus); normal saline group ( group NS) . Spinal nerve injury was produced by exposing the sciatic nerve and its branches and ligation and transection of tibial nerve and common fibular nerve in anesthetized rats. In TRESK, Virus and NS groups, pAd∕CMV∕V5?DEST?TRESK 25 μl (109IU∕ml), negative adenovirus 25 μl and normal saline 25 μl were intrathecally injected, respectively. At 1 day before operation ( base?line, T0 ) and 1, 3, 7 and 14 days after operation ( T1-4 ) , the mechanical paw withdrawal threshold ( MWT) and thermal paw withdrawal latency were measured. Six rats in each group were sacrificed after measurement of pain threshold at T3 . The L4,5 segments of the spinal cords were removed for determination of monocyte chemotactic protein?1 ( MCP?1) , MIP?2, tumor necrosis factor?alpha ( TNF?α) , interleukin?1 beta ( IL?1β) and IL?6 mRNA expression by real?time PCR. Results There was no significant difference in thermal paw withdrawal latency at each time point between groups. Compared with C and S groups, MWT at T1-4 in NP and TRESK groups and at T1-3 in Virus and NS groups were significantly decreased, and the expression of MCP?1, MIP?2, TNF?α, IL?1βand IL?6 mRNA was up?regulated in NP, TRESK, Virus and NS groups. Compared with group NP, MWT was significantly increased at T1-4, and the expres?sion of MCP?1, MIP?2, TNF?α, IL?1β and IL?6 mRNA was down?regulated in group TRESK. Conclusion The mechanism by which intrathecal TRESK gene recombinant adenovirus reduces NP is re?lated to inhibition of inflammatory responses mediated by chemokine in the spinal cord of rats.

Objective To study the application of multi-slice spiral CT(MSCT) portography in diagnonsis of pancreatic portal hypertension. Methods Forty-seven patients with lesion in body or tail of pancrease,47 normal subjects and 126 patients with portal hypertension underwent MSCT portography with LightSpeed 16 CT scanner. The inner diameter of portal system and the main collateral veins were measured in maximun intensity projection (MIP) image. The volume of liver and spleen were also measured in volume rendering (VR) image. The liver parenchyma and main portal vein enhancement in portal vein phase were also taken. The endoscopy examination was made in 57 patiens with portal hypertension. Results In 47 patiens with lesion in body or tail of pancreas , stenosis or occlusion of spleen vein were found in 38 patients(pancreatic portal hypertension in 27 patients, chronic and acute pancreatitis in 11 patients). In 38 patients with pancreatic portal hypertension, esophageal varices was found in 5 patients(13.2%), gastric fundus varix in 25 patients (65.8%), gastric body variees in 22 patients (57.9%), short-gastric vein/post-gastric vein(SGV/PGV) in 26 patients (68.4%), coronal gastric vein in 26 patients (68.4%),dilated gasto-omenta vein in 24 patients(63.2%), mesenterica varicesin 1 patient, splenic vein occlusion in 14 patients (36.8%), splenic vein stenosis in 23 patinets(63.2%). Conclusions The patients with pancreatic portal hypertension were demonstrate characteristic changes in MSCT portography. The MSCT portography is helpful in etiological diagnosis of pancreatic portal hypertension by supplying images in vessel morphology.

ObjectiveTo study the effects of group BStreptococcus (GBS) colonization in late pregnancies on neonatal GBS infection.MethodsA total of 17 019 pregnant women who received antenatal care and delivered in Xiamen Maternal and Child Care Hospital from June 1, 2014 to May 31, 2015 were enrolled in this study. Secretions from the lower third of the vagina in the pregnant women at 35-37 weeks of gestation or having premature baby(regardless of gestational age) were obtained to test GBS by standard bacterial culture, and 1 472 cases underwent GBS DNA test by real-time fluorescent quantitative-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) meanwhile. The pregnant women colonized with GBS (GBS culture and/or PCR DNA test positive) were given intrapartum antibiotic prophylaxis (IAP) during parturition or rupture of fetal membranes. Detection rate of the two methods was compared, and the effects of GBS colonization and IAP on neonatal GBS infection were analyzed to identify the risk factors of neonatal early-onset GBS disease (GBS-EOD). Two independent samplest-test,Chi-square test and Logistic regression analysis were used for statistical analysis. ResultsThe detection rate of GBS culture and PCR DNA test was 14.43% (2 456/17 019) and 14.13%(288/1 472), respectively. The total colonization rate was 14.52%(2 472/17 019). Based on the culture results as golden criteria, the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of PCR assay were 95.05%, 98.74%, 92.31% and 99.21%, respectively. There were 17 332 deliveries from the 17 019 pregnant women, of which 31 cases had GBS-EOD. The incidence of neonatal GBS-EOD in maternal GBS colonization [1.05%(26/2 472)] was 31 times higher than in pregnant women without GBS colonization [0.34‰(5/14 547)]. Among the 31 infants with GBS-EOD, 24 had pneumonia, five had sepsis, and two had meningitis. The case fatality rate was 6.45%(2/31). Logistic regression analysis found that chorioamnionitis was an independent risk factor of neonatal GBS-EOD (OR=40.425, 95%CI: 7.514-379.782,P=0.000). Compared with the non-IAP group,IAP group had a lower incidence of GBS-EOD among the pregnant women colonized with GBS [0.94%(23/2 443) vs 10.34%(3/29),χ2=24.350,P<0.01].ConclusionsGBS colonization in late pregnant women has adverse effects. Therefore, routine maternal rectovaginal culture of GBS may be necessary and IAP should be applied in those with GBS colonization.

ObjectiveTo measure the expression of divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and to explore its clinical and pathological significance. MethodsFifty-seven liver cancer specimens collected from patients with HCC and preserved in paraffin in Second Affiliated Hospital of Shantou University Medical College from July 1999 to July 2011 were established as HCC tissue group, and 7 specimens of normal liver tissues from autopsy and 8 specimens of liver tissues from patients with intrahepatic bile duct stones and preserved in paraffin were established as normal control group. SP immunohistochemistry was applied to measure the expression of DMT1 in 15 specimens of normal liver tissues and 57 specimens of HCC tissues. One-way analysis of variance was applied to analyze the difference in expression of DMT1 in HCC tissues with varying degrees of differentiation, and χ2 test was applied for the comparison of rates; the correlation between expression of DMT1 and tumor size was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis. ResultsDMT1 in the liver tissues in normal control group was negative or weakly positive, with a positive rate of 20% (3/5); in HCC tissue group, the positive rate was 789% (45/57), with a strong positive rate of 15.8% (9/57); the two groups showed a significant difference in positive rate (P＜0.05). The expression of DMT1 varied significantly between patients with varying degrees of differentiation in HCC tissues (F=4.011, P＜0.05), while the positive rate of DMT1 showed no significant differences between patients with different clinical stages and with or without blood vessel infiltration (all P＞0.05). Correlation analysis did not find the correlation between expression of DMT1 and tumor size (r=-0.047, P＞005). ConclusionThe positive expression rate of DMT1 increases significantly in HCC tissues and is closely related to the degree of tumor differentiation, which is potentially valuable for clinical and pathological grading of liver cancer.

Objective:To investigate the changes of inflammatory factors and immune function in bronchial asthma children with Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection.Methods:From March 2019 to March 2020, 78 children with bronchial asthma and Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection in Wenling Maternal and Child Health Hospital were selected as observation group, and 50 bronchial asthma children without Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection during the same period were selected as control group.The levels of inflammatory factors, including tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), interleukin-8(IL-8) and interleukin-13(IL-13), immunoglobulin A(IgA), immunoglobulin G(IgG) and immunoglobulin M(IgM) were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and the changes of T lymphocyte subsets in peripheral blood were measured by flow cytometry.Results:The serum levels of TNF-α[(76.42±16.51)ng/L], IL-8 [(130.92±25.45)ng/L] and IL-13 [(172.35±28.39)ng/L] in the observation group were higher than those in the control group [(58.93±13.24)ng/L, (89.65±17.42)ng/L and (108.47±21.42)ng/L] ( t=6.708, 11.025, 14.665, all P<0.05). The serum levels of IgA [(0.64±0.16)g/L] and IgG [(7.31±1.26)g/L] in the observation group were lower than those in the control group [(1.04±0.19)g/L and (8.64±1.35)g/L], while the serum level of IgM [(1.29±0.24)g/L] was higher than that in the control group [(0.97±0.18)g/L] ( t=12.587, 5.864, 8.714, all P<0.05). The CD 3+ [(62.08±3.87)%], CD 4+ [(38.98±3.31)%] and CD 4+ /CD 8+ (1.29±0.13) in the observation group were lower than those in the control group [(71.38±4.35)%, (45.37±3.18)% and (1.87±0.25)] ( t=12.549, 11.103, 15.512, all P<0.05). Conclusion:Children with bronchial asthma and Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection have obvious inflammatory reaction and low immune function.

Objective To compare the therapeutic effect of Midodrine hydrochloride plus oral rehydration salts,Metoprolol plus oral rehydration salts and simple oral rehydration salts on children with postural tachycardia syn-drome(POTS). Methods One hundred and ninety - two children with POTS were divided into Midodrine hydrochlo-ride plus oral rehydration salts group(84 cases),Metoprolol plus oral rehydration salts group(54 cases)and oral rehy-dration salts group(54 cases). The patients were followed up at the outpatient department after 3 - months treatment. Short - term effect was analyzed by reevaluating the symptom scores,repeating upright test and studying the side effects of the drugs. All the children were followed - up by telephone,mainly investigating on the syndrome recurrence and symptom - free survival by Kaplan - Meier analysis. The follow - up time was 3 to 122(42. 7 ± 24. 3)months. Results Short - term effect showed that the symptom scores were decreased after treatment(t = 21. 536,P ﹤ 0. 001). Head -up test showed that delta heart rate was decreased. The effective rates in the Midodrine hydrochloride plus oral rehydra-tion salts group and the Metoprolol plus oral rehydration salts group were significantly higher than those of the simple oral rehydration salts group(χ2 = 10. 905,P = 0. 004). But no statistical difference was found between the Midodrine hydrochloride plus oral rehydration salts group and the Metoprolol plus oral rehydration salts group(χ2 = 0. 042,P =0. 837). Long - term effect by Kaplan - Meier curve showed that the therapeutic effect of Midodrine hydrochloride plus oral rehydration salts group was significantly higher than any of the other two groups(χ2 = 13. 299,P ﹤ 0. 01),but no statistical difference was found between the Metoprolol plus oral rehydration salts group and the simple oral rehydration salts group(χ2 = 0. 150,P = 0. 699). Conclusions In terms of the short - term result,the effective rates in the Mido-drine hydrochloride plus oral rehydration salts group and the Metoprolol plus oral rehydration salts group were signifi-cantly higher than those of the simple oral rehydration salts group. The therapeutic effect of the Midodrine hydrochloride plus oral rehydration salts was superior to that of the Metoprolol plus oral rehydration salts and the simple oral rehydra-tion salts for POTS children by the long - term follow - up study.
