P-selectin is also known as CD62. It promotes the occurrence of ischemic cerebrovascular disease by mediating the activation of endothelial cells and platelets as well as the processes of the formation and development of atherogenesis. A number of studies have confirmed that P-selectin plays important roles in the occurrence and development of the risk factors (such as hypertension, diabetes, hypercholesterolemia, heart disease, smoking, alcohol abuse and hyperfibrinogenemia) for ischemic cerebrovascular disease. It remains to be confirmed by further studies whether P-selectin can be used as an independent risk factor for predicting the occurrence of ischemic cerebrovascular disease.

Objective To evaluate the analgesic effect of oxycodone hydrochloride and morphine in preemptive analgesia for abdominal surgery.Methods The 200 patients who received abdominal operation were randomly divided into the oxycodone hydrochloride group (group O) and the morphine group(group M) with 100 patients in each group,and patients of the two groups were given oxycodone hydrochloride and morphine in preemptive analgesia respectively .The VAS, OAA/S and BCS 48 hours after surgery , the frequency of the use of PCIA in 24 hours,the satisfaction of patients ,and the occurrence rate of complications were compared between the two groups .Results There was no significant difference between the two groups in VAS ,BCS,OAA/S,frequency of the use of PCIA and patients satisfaction (P>0.05).The occurrence rate of nausea,vomit,and itch in group O were much lower than that in group M (P<0.05).The occurrence rate of drowsiness in group O was higher than that of group M(P<0.05).Conclusion Compared with morphine,oxycodone hydrochloride has the same analgesia efficiency and less side effect occurrence rate for patients with abdominal operation .

Objective To study the clinical and imaging features of neonatal acute osteomyelitis.Method From 2011 to 2016,the clinical feature,laboratory results,pathogen,imaging features,treatment and prognosis of neonates who were diagnosed with acute osteomyelitis in NICU of People's Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region were retrospectively studied.Result A total of 13 cases were enrolled during the study period,5 males and 8 females,with onset age of 7 ～30 d.8 cases had different degrees of fever and 5 of them showed dyspnea;8 cases had elevated skin temperature and swelling at the affected area;7 cases presented with irritability;6 cases had anorexia;all cases had elevated white blood cell count.Blood culture were taken immediately after their admission,and culture from the pus were taken for some patients.5 cases had positive blood culture and Staphylococcus aureus was the main pathogen.6 cases had positive pus culture,and 4 cases showed gram positive (G +) bacteria and 2 cases gram negative (G-) bacteria.Humerus and tibia were the main foci of the infection.4 cases had X-ray examination within 7 days of onset showing soft tissue swelling and no sign of bone destruction.13 cases had X-ray examination at 7 to 14 days of disease.Among them only 1 case showed soft tissue swelling,and the rest 12 cases had different levels of bone destruction and periosteal reaction.2 cases had X-ray examination after 14 days of disease,showing stiffening ring,inflammatory changes and periosteal reaction.All patients were treated with broad-spectrum antibiotics after admission,and the affected limbs were immobilized.3 cases had further surgical treatment.11 patients recovered and were discharged,1 patient was treated at local hospital after diagnosis and 1 patient refused further treatment due to serious complications after 35 d of hospital stay and was lost on follow-up.Conclusion The clinical manifestation of neonatal osteomyelitis is atypical,the radiological and pathogen examination should be carried out once osteomyelitis is suspected.Appropriate antibiotics and timely surgery can prevent further damage and long-term sequela.

Objective To understand the mechanism of vitamin A deficiency(VAD) impairing the mucosal immunity and the influences of VAD on cytokines response of intestinal mucosa in rats. Method The rat model with VAD was established,and intestinal infection was induced by typhoid salmonella orally administered. The fresh ileum tissue samples were taken,and ELISA and RT-quantity PCR were used to detect the production of cytokines,including IFN-?,IL-2,IL-4,IL-6,IL-10 and IL-12,by intestinal mucosa in protein and mRNA levels. Results IL-12,the cytokine produced by dendritic cells,was markedly increased in VAD rats,and the level was further raised when the VAD rats were complicated by intestinal infection. The Th1 cytokines,IFN-? and IL-2,were reduced in VAD rats. IL-4,the main Th2 cytokine,was significantly decreased after intestinal infection,especially in VAD rats. IL-6 mRNA was lower in VAD rats and after intestinal infection compared with that of the VA normal control. IL-10 mRNA was also declined in VAD rats,and more markedly reduced after intestinal infection. Conclusion The regulation of VAD onproduction of cytokines in local intestinal mucosa is likely to be an important mechanism of VAD affecting intestinal mucosal immunity.

Through the discussion on TCM physiological characters of females in follicular, ovulatory, luteal and menstrual phases and treatment principles, the clinical application of artificial cycle therapy of acupuncture and moxibustion was introduced for irregular menstruation and the typical cases were attached. It is suggested that the menstrual cycle follows the growth-consumption rule of yin, yang, qi and blood. The corresponding treatment principles should be applied in accordance with the change rule of menstrual cycle. Hence, it is worth to adopt the artificial cycle therapy of acupuncture and moxibustion for irregular menstruation in clinical application.

Objective To discuss hemorheologic changes and hepatic function in patients with chronic hepatitis B(CHB)and its correlation with HBV genotype.Methods Relative index of hemorheologic changes,ALT,HBV-DNA and HBV genotype were examined in 96 CHB patients and 24 healthy control people.The results underwent correlation analysis.Results Low-shear blood viscosity and RBC aggregation index were significantly higher in CHB patients than those in the healthy control people(P＜0.05).Low-shear blood viscosity and RBC aggregation index were significantly higher in CHB patients with abnormal ALT than those CHB patients with normal ALT and the healthy control people(P＜0.05).No statistical difference was seen when CHB patients with normal ALT were compared with the healthy control people and patients with positive HBV-DNA were compared with patients with nesative HBV-DNA(P＞0.05).No statistical difference was seen in hemorheologic changes in CHB patients with different genotype(P＞0.05).Conclusions Microcirculation disorder of CHB patients is correlated with damage degree of hepatic function.Hemorheologic changes are not correlated with HBV-DNA and HBV genotype,so it can be a relatively independent index for clinical evaluation of disease.

BACKGROUND: Neonatal hypoxic ischemic encephalopahty(NHIE) is a common neonatal disease, which could cause cerebral palsy, inferior intelligence and convulsion. At present, usual examinations for this disease are CT.MRI and single photon emission computed tomography(SPECT), etc.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the character of SPECT image of NHIE, and compared with CT and MRI as well to provide a theoretical gist for function surveillance and early intervention of NHIE.DESIGN: An observatory comparative study based on NHIE patients and normal neouates as control.SETTING: Department of nuclear medicine in a medical university hospital.PARTICIPANTS: Thirty neonates hospitalized in the Department of Pediatrics, Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical College between September 1998 and October 2000 were selected as observation group with 23 males and 7 females. Another 10 normal neonates including 7 males and 3 females were randomly selected from same period into control group.METHODS: SPECT brain blood perfusion was conducted in the subjects of two groups and the results were compared with that of CT and MRI.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① comparison of SPECT brain blood image features between NHIE and normal neonates; ② comparison of SPECT images and CT, MRI results. RESULTS: In 22 NHIE cases who received SPECT, CT and MRI simultaneously, mild group had 7 cases, and positive cases of SPECT, CT or MRI was 7, 3 or 5; moderate group had 10 cases, and positive cases of three methods was 10, 8 or 9; severe group had 5 cases, the all of them were positive in all three examinations. The total positive detectable rate of SPECT, CT or MRI was 100, 72.73% or 86. 36%. There was no significant difference of sensitivity between SPECT and MRI in mild group, while there was significant difference between SPECT and CT(x2 = 3.95, P ＜ 0.05);there was no significant difference among three methods in either moderate group or severe group(x2 =0. 83, P ＞ 0.05).CONCLUSION: SPECT brain blood perfusion image is a quite sensitive method for the surveillance of NHIE, which can provide imageological reference for the evaluation of its prognosis and early intervention.

Background Pterygium is one of the common ocular surface disorders,and the main drugs for pterygium include dexamethasone (DXM),interferon α-2b (IFN-α2b),mitomycin C (MMC),5-fluorouracil (5-FU),cyclosporin A (CsA) and tacrolimus (FKS06).However,the efficacy of these drugs on the fibroblasts from recurrence pterygium is unelucidated.Objective This study was to compare the efficacy of DXM,IFN-o2b,MMC,5-FU,CsA and FK506 on proliferation and apoptosis of recurrent pterygium-derived fibroblasts in vitro.Methods The specimens of recurrence pterygium were collected during surgery in Tianjin Medical University Ophthalmological Hospital from May 2015 to July 2016 under the written informed consent.Fibroblasts were isolated and cultured by explant culture method and identified by immunochemistry.DXM,IFN-α2b,MMC,5-FU,CsA and FK506 were added into the medium for 48 hours,respectively,and the cells cultured without drug were used as the control group.The inhibitory efficiency of different concentrations of DXM,IFN-α2b,MMC,5-FU,CsA and FK506 on the cell proliferation was assayed by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8),and 50％ inhibiting concentration (IC50) of the drugs was calculated.The cells were treated by the IC50 dose of drugs for 48 hours,and cell apoptotic proportion and cell cycle were assessed by flow cytometry analysis.The expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in the cells after treated by drugs was detected by immunochemistry.Results Cultured cells grew well with the fusiform shape and radial arrangement.Vimentine showed the positive expression and keratin was absently expressed in the cells.The IC50 to the cells was (3.5×103±2.83×10-2)mg/L,(6.1×102±3.6×10-3)mg/L,(3.2×10-1±1×10-4)mg/L,(2.2× 101 ± 1.2× 10-3) mg/L,(6.3 × 101 ±2.5 × 10-3) mg/L and (6.0× 101 ± 0.0× 100) mg/L in the DXM,IFN-α2b,MMC,5-FU,CsA and FK506,respectively.In the 48 hours after treated by the IC50 drugs,the apoptotic ratio was (35.00± 3.21)％,(30.37±1.67)％,(26.11±0.75)％,(22.01±0.07)％,(20.95±1.68)％ and (19.85±0.52)％ in the IFN-α2b group,CsA group,MMC group,FK506 group,DXM group and 5-FU group,which was significantly higher than (11.38±2.18) ％ in the control group (all at P＜0.05).The cell proportion of G0/G1 phase,S phase and G2/M phase was (85.64±2.62)％,(5.29±1.56)％ and (2.73-±2.66)％ in the control group,and the cell proportion of G0/G1 phase was reduced,while that of S phase or G2/M phase was considerably increased in various drug groups (all at P＜0.05),with the blocking efficiency of cell cycle was in turn MMC,CsA,5-FU,DXM,IFN-α2b and FK506.The expressional rate of PCNA in the cells was (95.00 ± 2.00) ％,(82.67 ± 5.04) ％,(80.00 ± 2.78) ％,(64.00± 6.55)％,(38.00±3.00)％,(32.00±4.36)％ and (29.67±3.02)％ in the control group,FK506 group,DXM group,5-FU group,IFN-α2b group,CsA group and MMC group,showing a significant difference among the groups (F=25.995,P＜0.01),and the expressional rate of PCNA was significant lower in various drug groups than that in the control group (all at P＜0.05).Conclusions DXM,IFN-α2b,MMC,5-FU,CsA and FK506 are all able to inhibit the proliferation and promote the apoptosis of recurrent pterygium-derived fibroblasts in vitro,and MMC and CsA appear to have a stronger effect.

Objective To explore the most suitable equation in accessing renal function for the elderly type 2 diabetic patients, and its clinical utility in combination with hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hsCRP). Methods The new Cystatin C-based equations for estimated glomerular filtration rate (Cys-eGFR) and conventional predictive equations were compared with isotopic GFR (iGFR) by linear regression analysis, paired t-test, Bland and Altman procedures and non-parametric receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. The new Cys-eGFR equation and hsCRP were also incorporated for detecting renal disease in this population. Results The new Cys-eGFR equation had a better relativity with iGFR (r= 0.767, P＜0.001), a less bias (bias: 0.0007, P＞0.05), a higher conformance (2SD: 21.56), higher sensitivity (90.7%) and specificity (88.6%) for diagnosing moderate decrease in renal function. There was a negative relationship between the new Cys-eGFR and hsCRP (r=-0.655, P＜0.01). When the new Cys-eGFR was 67.06 ml· min-1 ·1.73 m-2 and hsCRP was 5.65 mg/L, the combination of Cys-eGFR and hsCRP was better than the combination of serum creatinine and urine albumin/creatinine ratio in screening stage 3 chronic kidney disease (95%vs.46%). Conclusions The combination of new Cys-eGFR equation and hsCRP may screen an early decrease of moderate GFR.
