Objective To observe the effects of substance P (SP), NK1 receptor antagonist and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitors on the secretion of nitric oxide (NO) and expression of inducible NOS (iNOS) by immortalized human keratinocyte line HaCaT. Methods The NO level in supernatant of cultured HaCaT cells was measured by nitrate reductase assay after treatment with different concentrations (10-9 to 10-6 mol/L) of SP, or the combination of SP (10-8 mol/L) and spantide (3×10-7 mol/L), aminoguanidine (10-7 mol/L), 7-nitroindazole (10-6 mol/L) or L-NAME (10-5 mol/L) for various durations. Reverse transcription-PCR was performed to measure the expression of iNOS mRNA in HaCaT cells incubated with SP of 10-8 mol/L for 1, 24 and 48 hours. Results The SP of 10-9 to 10-6 mol/L significantly induced the production of NO by HaCaT cells, and the highest level of NO was observed in HaCaT cells treated with SP of 10-8 mol/L. The synthesis of NO by HaCaT cells induced by SP was inhibited by Spantide of 3 × 10~7 mol/L at all time points (30 minutes, 1, 3, 6, 12, 24 hours, all P< 0.01), by L-NAME of 10-5 mol/L at 3 time points (30 minutes, 1, 24 hours) and by 7-nitroin-dazole of 10-6 mol/L at 2 time points (30 minutes, 1 hour, both P< 0.05), but not by aminoguanidine of 10-7 mol/L at any time point (all P > 0.05). After treatment with SP of 10-8 mol/L, the relative mRNA expression of iNOS was 0.199 ± 0.018 and 0.516 ± 0.030 at 24 and 48 hours, respectively, and there was a statistical difference between the two time points (P < 0.01). Conclusions SP can reinforce the secretion of NO by HaCaT cells via NK1 receptor activation, but iNOS is unlikely to be the primary origin of NO secreted by HaCaT cells induced by SP.

Objective To study the relationship between serum MMP-9,Gal-3,TGF-β1 and lung function in children with bronchial asthma.Methods The serum levels of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9),serum galectin-3 (MMP-9),serum metalloproteinase-3 (MMP 9) and serum albumin were measured in 218 pediatric children between March 1,2012 and August 31,2016 in Shenzhen Longhua New District People's Hospital pediatric outpatient clinic.FEV1％,FEV1/FVC and FEF50 were measured and compared respectively with the index data of the control group.The lung function of the children was significantly higher than that of the control group (P＜0.05).Mild group and severe group children above.Results Serum levels measured in 218 children (F=35.34,46.51,56.73,all P＜0.05).The data of any two groups also showed statistical difference after q test,and the difference was statistically significant (FEV1 ％),1-second forced expiratory volume/forced vital capacity percentage (FEV1/FVC),forced expiratory 50％ (FEF50) of the first-second forced expiratory volume/forced expiratory volume of 1 second (F=78.13,52.69,26.24,all P＜0.05).After the q test,the data of any two groups were analyzed by ANOVA.Between the data were also statistically significant differences.Conclusion MM-9,Gal-3 and TGFβ1 in bronchoalveolar lavage and the degree of pulmonary function decline have close ties.

Objective To explore the surface electromyography (sEMG) assist for the rehabilitation training for children with cerebral palsy. Methods 60 children with spastic diplegia were divided into treatment group (n=30) and control group (n=30). All the children received comprehensive rehabilitation, while the rehabilitation program were designed with the assist of sEMG in the treatment group. They were assessed with Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM) before and 3 months after rehabilitation. Results There was no statistically improvement in dimension A, B, and C of GMFM (P>0.05), but was in the total score and the dimension D and E (P<0.0001). There was no statistical difference in dimension A, B, and C between 2 groups (P>0.05), but was in the total score and the dimension D and E (P<0.01) after rehabilitation. Conclusion The sEMG might be helpful for the rehabilitation for children with cerebral palsy.

Objective To explore the surface electromyography(EMG)characteristics of biceps brachii during isometric contraction in children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy.Methods The surface electromyograms signals of biceps brachii of 10 children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy during passive isometric contraction were recorded.Results The intact side registered a stronger EMG than that of the affected side,the integrated electromyography(iEMG)and root mean square(RMS)levels from the intact side were higher than those of affected side significantly(P<0.05).Conclusion The results of electromyographic analysis are consistent with Modified Ashworth Scale.Electromyographic analysis can provide a satisfactory evaluation of the muscle tone in children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of fasting blood glucose (FBG) in the diagnosis of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) caused by pulmonary infection in elderly patients with diabetes. Methods Patients over 65 years old with diabetic pulmonary infection admitted to Department of Cadres Ward of Bethune International Peace Hospital of PLA from July 2015 to December 2016 were enrolled. According to the patient's highest FBG level during pulmonary infection, all patients were divided in two groups. The cases whose FBG ≥8.83 mmol/L were served as suspicious multiple organ dysfunction syndrome in the elderly (MODSE) group, and those had FBG < 8.83 mmol/L were served as suspicious non-MODSE group. The incidence of MODSE in suspicious MODSE group and suspicious non-MODSE group was compared. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was drawn, and the clinical value of highest FBG in the diagnosis of MODSE caused by pulmonary infection in elderly patients with diabetes was assessed. Results 119 elderly patients with diabetes and pulmonary infection were enrolled in the analysis. All patients were male, with age of 76-105 years with an average of (89.41±4.16) years. Among 119 patients, 55 of them with suspected MODSE, 64 of them with suspected non-MODSE. The incidence of MODSE in suspicious MODSE group was significantly higher than that in suspicious non-MODSE group (78.2% vs. 12.5%), with statistically significant difference (χ2 = 52.108, P = 0.000). The area under the ROC curve of the highest FBG for diagnosis of MODSE was 0.895, and 95% confidence interval (95%CI) was 0.839-0.951 (P < 0.001). When using FBG ≥ 8.83 mmol/L to diagnose MODSE induced by pulmonary infection in elderly patients with diabetes, the sensitivity was 84.3% and the specificity was 82.4%. Conclusion FBG ≥ 8.83 mmol/L, as an indicator reflecting the changes of metabolic function, have a diagnostic value for MODSE caused by pulmonary infection in elderly patients with diabetes.

Objective To observe the clinical pathological changes lower rectal carcinoma after preoperative radiation.Methods Thirty cases of rectal carcinoma underwent preoperative radiotherapy at a dose of 30 Gy.Gross size of the tumors was measured and histological changes were analyzed before and after radiation.Results The rates of complete regression,partial regression and no response to radiation of the tumors were 23.3%.53.3%and 23.3%.Significant tumor regression RCRG Ⅲ wag seen in 6 cages (20.0%) after radiotherapy.while partially tumor regression RCRG Ⅱ was seen in 15 cases (50.0%). Conclusion Preoperative radiation at a dose of 30 Gy on lower rectal carcinoma induces degeneration and necrosis of the tumor cells with complete or partial regression in most cases.Necrosis,fibrosis and thickening of vascular intima in the rectal cancer tissue after radiotherapy is more frequent than those without radiotherapy.It may be the potential reason for increased resection rate and sphincter saving after radiotherapy. It hag a great significance for sphincter-preservation surgery in this group of rectal carcinomas.
