Medical has the dual attributes essentially , which is not only a science but also a humanology . Therefore , it needs to be nourished by rich humanistic spirit .At present , the generalization of medical technology , the abnormal development of medicine socialization and the less care from humanities to medical and many other reasons lead to the lack of humanistic spirit of medicine .To correct the phenomenon of the disorder, we should explore the effective means actively to provide powerful support for the returning of the medical humanism .There-fore, using an appropriate method to strengthen the humanities education of medical students and attention in the classroom will be regarded as good path in medical humanities spirit returning .

The pathogenic effects of crops from Keshan disease area were studied by rat-feeding. As double controls, another two groups were fed with crops from non-endemic area and synthetic diet. Those from disease area caused necrosis of heart muscle vascular changes of myocardial mitochondria and fatty degeneration of liver. Compared with the controls, the free radical and lipid peroxide content in heart and liver were significantly higher, while the ATP and AN contents in these organs were apparently lower. The multielement contents and its constituent patterns in the feeds, whole blood, heart, liver, kidney and brown adipose tissue of rats in experimetal group were apparently different from those in the control groups. The statistic analysis of multiple factors showed that eight elements Se, Mo, Cu, Mn, Cr, Fe, Zn and Pr might be the perilous factors, that is, under the condition of low selenium, the constituent pattern of selenium and the eight elements might be the complicated factors of endemic crops.

The cultured HUVE cells were infected with HFRS veruses. At different intervals after in-fection cytotoxicity of NK and LAK by 4 hours Cr release method. It was found that the infec-tion of endothelial cells inhibit the lytic activity of NK and LAK cells. Theinhibition. It is sug-gested that the deceased susceptibility of HFRS virus infected endothelial cells to NK and LAKcells may protect the viruses from the cellular immunity during the course of HFRS.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of the imbalance between regulatory T cells (Treg) and T helper 17 cells (Th17) in patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection.MethodsThe serum concentration of Treg/Th17 differentiation-related cytokines in 34 patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB),20 patients with HBV related acute on chronic liver failure (ACHBLF),and 20 healthy controls (NC) were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and proportion of peripheral Th17 and Treg cells were analyzed by flow cytometry.Numeration data was analyzed by Fisher's exact propability method and measurement data was tested by one-factor analysis of variance or Turkey multiple comparison.Results The levels of Th17 differentiation-related cytokines,II-1β (3.97±2.85) pg/mL,IL-6 (12.75±-8.87) pg/mL,and IL-21 (360.0±335.7) pg/ mL in patients with ACHBLF were significantly increased than those in NC,which were (1.87 ±0.94) pg/mL(q=4.559,P＜0.01),(5.28±0.72) pg/mL(q=7.309,P＜0.01) and (46.68±20.17) pg/mL(q=6.946,P＜0.01 ),respectively.The proportion of Th17 increased markedly in patients with ACHBLF than that in NC(q=3.972,P＜0.05).However,compared to NC and patients with ACHBLF,the Treg differentiation-related cytokine,TGF-β,in patients with CHB,increased significantly (q=4.536 and 5.323,respectively; both P＜0.01).And the population of Treg also increased markedly in CHB patients.The level of IL-17A which was the characteristic effector cytokine of Th17 was the highest in patients with ACHBLF.The peripheral Th17 cell proportion was positively correlated with the level of serum total bilirubin in patients with ACHBLF (γ=0.74,P＜0.01).Conclusions Th17 and Treg imbalance including cytokine profiles and cell numbers exists in patients with chronic HBV infection.The Th17 are active in patients with ACHBLF and Treg are active in patients with CHB.

Objective To judge the effect of plasma exchange (PE) to the patients with severe hepatopath of nonage according to evaluating the change of the liver function of reserve with 13C-methacetin breath test. Methods There are two groups: the case group and the control group. Each group has 30 patients. The patients in the case group were treated by PE. All the patients received 13C-methacetin breath test at before or one week after treatment. MVmax40, CUM40 and CUM120 were present. At the same time, clinical symptoms, glutamate-pyruvate transaminase (ALT), total bilirubin (TBiL) and prethrombin active (PTA) were observed. Results MVmax40, CUM40, CUM120 and PTA were higher, ALT and TBiL were lower in the case group after treatment (t=4.679, 4.752, 5.048, 5.413, 6.208, 7.413, P=0.000,P<0.01). After a week, MVmax40, CUM40, CUM120 and PTA were higher, ALT and TBiL were lower in the case group than that in the control group (t=2.260, 2.247, 2.476, 4.017, 3.250, 3.658, P<0.05). The total effective rates in the case group and the control group were 83.3 % (25/30) and 43.3 % (13/30),which are significant different(χ2 10.335,P<0.01). Conclusion PE can im-prove the liver reservation functionin the severe hepatopath of nonage.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of different optimal therapy strategies for hepatits B e antigen (HBeAg) positive chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients with suboptimal response to peginterferon-α-2a (peg-IFN-α-2a) at 24 weeks.Methods This open-label,single-center and prospective clinical observational study was conducted in Department of Infectious Diseases at Shanghai Changhai Hospital between January 2009 and December 2011.The cases of HBeAg-positive CHB with suboptimal response to peg-IFN-α-2a at week 24 were enrolled.Based on virological markers and patient preference,patients were treated with either peg-IFN-α-2a add-on adefovir dipivoxil (ADV) or switch-to telbivudine (LdT).Hepatitis B virus (HBV) virological and serological data were collected at week 12,24 and 48 after the initiation of optimal therapy.Adverse reactions were also monitored.Therapeutic efficacy was compared between two groups of patients before and after treatment by x2 test.Kruskall Wallis test and Mann-Whitney test were used for analysis of continuous variables.Results Among 193 HBeAg positive CHB patients treated with interferon,67 had suboptimal response and were enrolled.Forty five cases received peg IFN-α-2a add-on ADV treatment and 22 cases received switch-to LdT treatment.After 48 weeks of optimized therapy,the total tBeAg seroconversion rate was 25.3 ％.The rates of HBeAg loss,HBV DNA negative and alanine aminotransferase normalization were 26.8％,73.1％ and 83.5％,respectively.The peg-IFN-α-2a switch-to LdT strategy had better HBV DNA inhibition efficiency compared with the peg-IFN-α-2a add-on ADV strategy at week 12,24 and 48 (P=0.00,0.00 and 0.01,respectively).However,there was no significant difference of HBV DNA negative rate between two groups at week 48 (x2 =0.01,P=0.89).The obviously intolerable adverse reaction was not reported in two optimized strategy groups.Conclusions The 48-week optimized treatment for HBeAg positive CHB with suboptimal response to peg-IFN-α-2a at week 24 could achieve a higher HBeAg seroconversion rate.The switch-to LdT strategy may have better HBV DNA inhibition efficiency.Both strategies show satisfactory safety and tolerance.

Objective To investigate the effect of indoor coal PM2.5 on the airway inflammation and the pathological morphology alterations of lung tissue in asthmatic rats induced by ovalbumin(OVA). Methods Forty six?week?old male SD rats were randomly divided into four groups(Control,OVA,PM2.5,PM2.5+OVA). Normal saline,OVA(15μg/mL)and(or)PM2.5(2.5 mg/mL)were given to rats in the four groups through intratracheal instillation for four times (two weeks one time),respectively. Twenty?four hours after the last intratracheal instillation ,bronchoalveolar irrigation lavage fluid (BALF) was collected for determinations of serum interleukin 4(IL?4),interferon gamma (IFN?γ). The lung tissue was collected for HE staining and electron microscopy detection. Results HE staining showed less inflammatory cell infiltration was observed in the control group;In PM2.5 group and OVA group,there was medium quantity of inflammatory cell infiltration,In PM2.5+OVA group, severe inflammatory cell infiltration was observed. Electron microscopy showed no abnormal lung tissue in the control group,but organelles were gradually destroyed,endothelial cell edama,alveolar interval with a large number of fibersin were observed in PM2.5 group. The exfoliated cells,local typeⅡ cells with visible damage were found in OVA group. A large number of fibers were existed among the lung tissues and organelles were destroyed,thickness of basement membrane was non?uniform,and blood air barrier structure was not clear in PM2.5 + OVA group. Compared with PM2.5+OVA group,concentration of IL?4 in PM2.5,OVA and the control group was siganificantly different(P < 0.05). A negative correlation between IL?4 and IFN?γ was observed (r =-0.358,P < 0.05). Conclusion Indoor coal PM2.5 exacerbates the airway inflammatory cell infiltration and airway remodeling in OVA?induced asthmatic rats.

Observations were conducted on 11 kinds of tissues and organs(brown adipose tissue, thymus gland, blood, heart, lungs, muscle, bone, kidneys, spleen, liver, and intestine) in experimental animals, which were fed on crops from endemic areas of Keshan disease and non-endemic areas for 8-13 weeks. The absorption and distribution of 75Se (Na2 SeO3) in above tissue and organs were studied. Results revealed that the absorption of Na2-SeO3 in experimental group fed on crops from endemic area was higher than control group fed on crops from non-endemic area. The gradient of distribution of 75Se in various organs was regular: The highest absorption was in kidneys, the lesser was in liver, spleen and thyrnus, the least was in muscle, heart and bones.In one week observation, the contents of 75Se changed as time passed, but the fluctuating changes of the two groups were different.The regular differences of 75Se absorption as above, revealed a distinction between endemic and non-endemic crops. Under the influences of the crops on experimental animals, there appeared more or less a condition of selenium deficiency, which proved that the soil-water-food chain had apparently influenced the selenium metabolism of the organisms.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of prone position ventilation (PPV) on respiratory mechanics and prognosis in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) concurrent with interstitial lung disease (ILD). Methods The data of 36 severe ARDS patients admitted to Department of Critical Care Medicine of the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from February 2013 to January 2015, were retrospectively analyzed. They were then divided into two groups according to the presence of ILD or not. The changes in respiratory mechanics and oxygenation indexes were compared before and after PPV treatment in all the patients. Kaplan-Meier method was applied to draw the 60-day survival curves of both groups.Results There were 17 cases with ILD among these 36 severe ARDS patients.① No significant difference was found in baseline data between ILD group and non-ILD group.② Respiratory mechanics and oxygenation pre-PPV and post-PPV: compared with pre-PPV, oxygenation index (PaO2/FiO2, mmHg, 1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa) post-PPV was significantly increased in both groups [ILD group : 132.0 (93.5, 172.0) vs. 118.7 (92.0, 147.8); non-ILD group: 126.1 (100.9, 170.0) vs. 109.2 (89.0, 135.0), bothP< 0.05]. Compared with pre-PPV, positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP, cmH2O,1 cmH2O = 0.098kPa) post-PPV was significantly higher in ILD group [10.0 (10.0, 12.0) vs. 10.0 (9.2, 12.0),P< 0.05], and respiratory rate (RR, times/min) was significantly lower in non-ILD group [24.5 (22.0, 27.0) vs. 25.5 (22.8, 28.0),P< 0.05]. The compliance of the respiratory system (Crs, mL/cmH2O) post-PPV in non-ILD group was significantly lower than that of the ILD group [19.7 (16.1, 28.6) vs. 23.0 (19.0, 29.7),P< 0.05].③ Respiratory mechanics and oxygenation pre-PPV and post-PPV in total: after all the PPV therapy, PaO2/FiO2 (mmHg) was significantly increased in non-ILD group [135.0 (86.0, 200.0) vs. 97.4 (69.2, 127.5), P< 0.05], PaO2/FiO2 after all the PPV therapy in non-ILD group was also higher than that in ILD group [135.0 (86.0, 200.0) vs. 78.7 (59.3, 114.9),P< 0.05]. No significant difference in Crs (mL/cmH2O) before PPV treatment was found between non-ILD and ILD groups [24.3 (15.9, 48.9) vs. 18.9 (12.7, 27.3),P> 0.05], and Crs was lower after PPV treatment in both groups, but without significant difference [non-ILD group: 22.7 (15.2, 27.1) vs. 24.3 (15.9, 48.9); ILD group: 16.2 (12.8, 25.6) vs. 18.9 (12.7, 27.3), bothP> 0.05].④ The 60-day mortality in ILD group was significantly higher than that in non-ILD group [88.2% (15/17) vs. 57.9% (11/19),P = 0.047). It was shown by Kaplan-Meier curves that 60-day survival patients in ILD group was significantly lower than those in non-ILD group (χ2 = 5.658,P = 0.017). Conclusions PPV can improve oxygenation in severe ARDS. Compared with non-ILD group, though the compliance of respiratory system in ILD group is increased during PPV, long-term effect is better in non-ILD group.
