Primary immunodeficiency diseases (PIDs) represent a typical group of rare diseases with high mortality and disability with regard to long-term outcome.Saving life and improving quality of life of the patients with PID remain to be the responsibility of the stakeholders from all aspects of the society.As the central player in the long run of PID campaign,pediatric immunologists should play a critical role in providing key epidemiological data in favor of political decision-making and social resource distribution.

Objective To study the effects of different factors influencing the quality of life of elderly esophageal cancer patients who returned to the community after surgery.Methods A total of 216 elderly esophageal cancer patients with complete clinical data who had returned to the community after surgery were followed up by questionnaires,including the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life rating (EORTC QLQ-C30) and esophageal cancer supplementary (QLQ-OES18) scales.Results The overall quality of life score of the patients was (35.2±22.1),which was lower than that in the Norwegian norm data.Scores for cognitive function,constipation,diarrhea,shortness of breath and loss of appetite were similar to those in the norm data.Scores for physical function,emotional function,role function and were lower than those in the norm data,while scores for pain,fatigue,nausea and vomiting,sleeplessness and were higher than those in the norm data.The overall quality of life score was higher in male patients than in female patients (F =5.12,P=0.029),in patients with spouses than in those without spouses (F=5.61,P=0.016),and in patients without complications than in those with complications (F=5.48,P=0.002).The overall quality of life was higher with longer survival times after surgery (F=3.68,P=0.003).No significant difference in the overall quality of life score was found between different age-groups (F=4.23,P=0.212).Conclusions The overall postoperative life quality is poor in community elderly patients with esophageal carcinoma.Gender,marital status,postoperative survival time,and complications are among the factors influencing postoperative quality of life of community elderly patients with esophageal carcinoma.

Objective To observe the MSCT features of invasive pulmonary tuberculosis,and to investigate its effect on the prognosis.Methods 60 patients with invasive pulmonary tuberculosis were selected as the study subjects.The gold standard was in sputum culture and histopathology.The clinical value of MSCT in the diagnosis of invasive pulmonary tuberculosis was evaluated.The distribution and morphological characteristics of the lesions in the invasive pulmonary tuberculosis were observed and analyzed.The patients were divided into the treatment group and the death group.The morphological changes of lung lesions were compared between the two groups.Results In 60 patients,a total of 45 patients with invasive pulmonary tuberculosis were diagnosed,MSCT of infiltrating pulmonary tuberculosis diagnostic sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive rate,negative predictive rate,correct rate,misdiagnosis rate,missed diagnosis rate,diagnostic accordance rate were 93.3%,80.0%,93.3%,80.0%,73.3%,20.0%, 6.7%,90.0%,respectively.On the lung multiple patchy shadow,real change shadow,multiple nodules,cavity shadow, on the unilateral lung syndrome,and branch sign and halo sign is the main sign of invasive pulmonary tuberculosis. Before treatment,MSCT signs of deterioration of chest between the treatment group and death group had no statistically significant difference(P>0.05).After 4 weeks of treatment,the proportion of effusion lesions in the treatment group was significantly decreased compared with before and during the same period of treatment(37.5%vs 76.9%;3.1%vs 92.3%),the differences were statistically significant(χ2 =5.750,16.541,all P<0.05).After 8 weeks of treat-ment,the proportions of effusion,nodules and cavity lesions in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the deteriorated group(3.1% vs 92.3%;0.0% vs 15.4%;6.2% vs 38.5%),the differences were statistically significant (χ2 =16.541,5.152,7.302,all P<0.05).Conclusion Morphological changes of MSCT in invasive pulmonary tuberculosis have certain characteristics.In the diagnosis,differential diagnosis and therapeutic evaluation of invasive pulmonary tuberculosis,MSCT has high value.

Objective To investigate clinical value of povidone -iodine disinfection for prevention of postpartum endometritis and abdominal incision infection in cesarean, to provide a reference for clinical treatment. Methods 160 cases of puerpera women were selected, all of them underwent uterine segment cesarean section. According to the digital table,they were divided into control group and observation group,80 cases in each group.In the observation group previous cesarean group remained untreated 30min before cesarean vaginal experiments 0.4%povidone-iodine for disinfection.The maternal postpartum endometritis incidence,abdominal incision infection rate, visual analogue scale,leukocyte index WBC,erythrocyte sedimentation rate index ( ESR) ,C-reactive protein ( CRP) were compared in the two groups.Results There were 32 cases of postoperative endometritis,12 cases (15.00%) occurred in the observation group, 20 cases ( 25.00%) occurred in the control group, the overall incidence of endometritis between the two groups had statistically significant difference (χ2 =5.945,P=0.025);endometritis 5cases (17.86%) premature rupture of membranes occurred in the observation group,the control group had 10 cases (31.25%),the difference was statistically significant (χ2 =6.565,P=0.009).Postpartum WBC,ESR,CRP in the observation group were significantly lower compared to the control group,the differences were statistically significant (t=5.045,P=0.007;t=7.945,P=0.001;t=8.676,P=0.000).In the observation group,postoperative abdominal incision infection rate was 3.75%,compared with the control group,there was no significant difference (χ2 =1.021, P=0.124).The VAS score of the observation group was (3.94 ±0.74),which was significantly lower than (6.25 ± 1.05) of the control group,the difference was statistically significant (t=6.331,P=0.010).Conclusion Previous cesarean vaginal povidone-iodine disinfection is effective in preventing postpartum endometritis,but can't help to low abdominal incision infection or improve wound healing.

BACKGROUND:With the in-depth study of cancer stem cels, increasing evidence has shown that cancer stem cels are the reason for cancer metastasis and recurrence, and therefore it is of great significance to isolate and identify cancer stem cels that can elucidate the pathogenesis of cancer and development of anticancer drugs.
OBJECTIVE: To isolate and culture gastric cancer stem cels and then to detect its biological characteristics.
METHODS: Cancer tissues from 16 patients with gastric cancer were cultured using adherent method and enzymic digestion methods to isolate gastric cancer stem cels. The cel morphology was observed under inverted microscope to drawn out growth curves. Osteogenic and adipogenic ability of cels were also detected.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Gastric cancer stem cels were isolated successfuly by both two methods. Under the microscope, the cels were fusiform- or polygon-shaped. At confluence, the cels grew in a vortex or radial manner. The cel growth curve showed that 1-3 days were latent period, 4-9 days were logarithmic growth phase, and over 10 days were growth plateau phase. Flow cytometry results showed that passage 3 gastric cancer stem cels highly expressed CD90, CD29, CD44, but lowly expressed CD34, CD45 and HLA-DR. After osteogenic induction, calcified nodules were clearly visible in the gastric cancer stem cels at passage 3; after adipogenic induction, bright and tiny fat droplets were seen in the cytoplasm. These findings indicate that cancer stem cels exist in the gastric cancer tissues, and have similar morphology, biological property and multipotent differentiation ability to normal cels, which are probably involved in gastric cancer occurrence and development.
