Objective To explore the recuperative effect of immunological function and nutritional status on the patients treated by immune enteral nutrition in early stage after severe multiple injury (SMI). Method The patients with SMI,in department of Trauma Surgery,Tongji Hospital,Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology,between January 2006 to May 2007 were randomly divided into 2 groups: immune enteral nutrition group (IEN group, 20 cases), enteral nutrition group (EN group, 20 cases). The health persons served as the control group(15 cases) .Since 1st postinjury day, all patients were treated with nutritional support. The T-cell subgroup in periphera blood were detected by FCM and the level of PA, RBP, IL-2 and IL-4 in blood serum were detected by ELASA on the 1st, 3rd,5th, 8th postinjury day. Results After the treatment of IEN and EN,the serum levels of PA, RBP and the proportion of T-cell subgroup were significantly increased on the 8th postinjury day compared with on 1st postinjury day (P ＜ 0.01), but there were no differences between IEN group and EN group. The level of IL-4 were significantly decreased and the level of IL-2 were significantly increased in each group on 8th postinjury day, at same time, the level of IL-2 were significantly increased in IEN group compared with EN group (P ＜ 0.05), and the level of IL-4 were significantly decreased in IEN group compared with EN group (P ＜ 0.05). The duration of SIRS was transient and the infected complication was low on the patients treatment by IEN than EN. Conclusions On the patients with severe multiple injury, IEN was most ascendant than EN to improve the immunosuppression and clinical prognosis.

Objective To evaluate the expression of substance P (SP) and caltenin gene related peptide (CGRP) in esophagueal mucosa from patients with non-erosive gnstroesophageal reflux disease (NERD) and reflux esophagitis (RE) and to explore their role in the development of NERD. Methods Fif-ty-one patients with typical symptoms of gnstroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) were evaluated with reflux disease questionnaire (RDQ), PPI test, endoscopy and 24hr esophageal pH monitoring. The patients were then divided into RE group (n = 21), NERD group with acid refluux (NERD+, n = 12) and NERD group without acid reflux (NERD-, n = 18) according to the evaluation results. The expression of SP and CGRP in esophagus mucosa from these patients and 10 healthy control subjects were assayed by immunohistochemis-try, and the stain positive index (PI) was calculated by Color patho-image analysis software and compared. Results The PIs of SP and CGRP in NERD- group were 96.77±31.74 and 24.76±29.15, respectively, which were significantly higher than those of NERD+ group (73.64±31.38, 9.78±10.30, respectively, P < 0.05), RE group (67.56±34.62, 9.61±6.20, respectively, P < 0.05) and control group (59.82± 46.15, 8.64±12.12, respectively, P < 0.05). Conclusion Expressions of SP and CGRP in esophagus mucosa from NERD patients without detectable acid reflux are significantly increased, they may play an im-portant role in esophageal visceral sensitivity.

Objective To investigate the antimicrobial resistance and genotype distribution of staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec) of staphylococcus aureus (S.aureus) isolated from children hospitalized at Pediatric People's Hospital of Zhongjiang County.Methods Seventy-seven strains of S.aureus were collected by nasopharyngeal swabs at the Pediatric Department of People's Hospital of Zhongjiang County from January to December 2015.Methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and methicillin-susceptible staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) were identified by cefoxitin disc diffusion and detection of mecA method.The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of antibiotics were determined by E-test method.SCCmec typing on MRSA strains was performed by using multiplex PCR.Results MRSA accounted for 54.5％ (42 strains) strains of 77 strains.All MRSA strains were resistant to Penicillin,and the rates of antibiotic resistance to Cefuroxime,Ceftriaxone,Erythromycin were 78.6％,95.2％ and 97.6％,respectively.The rates of antibiotic resistance of 35 MSSA to Penicillin and Erythromycin were 97.1％ and 62.9％,and they were also sensitive to other antibiotics.In 42 strains of MRSA,SCCmec type Ⅳa was the predominant type (27 strains,64.3 ％),which was followed by type Ⅳ g and Ⅴ (each 5 strains,11.9％),type Ⅳ c and Ⅳh (each 1strain,2.4％).Non-susceptibility rate of SCCmec Ⅳ to cefuroxime was significantly higher than that of other SCCmec types (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions All strains from children hospitalized in People's Hospital of Zhongjiang County are often resistant to Penicillin and Erythromycin.The proportion of MRSA isolated from hospitalized children was high.SCCmec type Ⅳa is the main genotype of MRSA.

Objective To evaluate the quality of life of patients with diabetes mellitus in rural areas,and to analyze the main influencing factors.Methods The EQ -5D and questionnaire were used to collect information of patients with diabetes mellitus and to evaluate their quality of life.Logistic regression,multiple liner regression analyses and other statistical methods were used to analyze the related factors of life quality among rural patients with diabetes mellitus. Results A total of 416 patients with diabetes mellitus were investigated.The mean score of EQ -5D and EQ -VAS of all cases were 0.835 ±0.197 and 61.48 ±16.47 respectively,and the rates of the participants had problems at the dimensions of mobility,self -care,usual activities,pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression were 21.15%,11.54%,17.31%, 38.46% and 47.12% respectively.Logistic regressions for the five dimensions showed that complications were the common significant factors of all five dimensions,and age was related to the dimensions of mobility,usual activities,pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression.Gender and HbA1C were influencing factors of pain/discomfort dimension.Multiple liner regression analyses showed that the number of complications was the influencing factors of the valuation of EQ -5D and the score of EQ -VAS.Conclusion The quality of life among patients with diabetes mellitus in rural areas was lower than healthy people.Anxiety/depression was the most common problem,and complications were the main factor for the decrease of quality of life among diabetic patients.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the oncological and functional outcomes in patients undergoing supracricoid partial laryngectomy (SCPL).

METHODSForty-three cases underwent supracricoid partial laryngectomy with functional reconstruction in stage T1b-T4. In these cases, 16 were supraglottic cancers, 21 were glottic cancers, and 2 were subglottic cancers. Three types of supracricoid partial laryngectomy (cricohyoidopexy CHP, cricohyoidoepiglottopexy CHEP and tracheocricohyoidoepiglottopexy TCHEP) were employed accordingly.

RESULTSThe 3- and 5-year accumulative survival rates were 90.7% and 83.7% respectively (Kaplan-Meier method). Median follow-up time was 57 months. Decannulation rate was 95.3% (41/43) in those. The mean time of decannulation was 14 days in patients preserved both cricoarytenoid units and 43 days in those only preserved one cricoarytenoid unit. The removal of epiglottis increased the risk of aspiration and prolonged time of decannulation (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONSSupracricoid partial laryngectomy for selected laryngeal cancer is feasible. The patients can gain satisfied survival rate and quality of life.

Objective To study the diagnostic value of NBI combined with magnification endoscopy using VS classification standard for early gastric carcinoma lesions.Methods A total of 100 patients with suspected early gastric cancer whose gastric mucosa showed roughness,erosion,abnormal colour or ulcer were collected from January 2013 to June 2014.The lesions were observed under white light endoscopy and then underwent biopsy.Observation and biopsy were conducted in the same location by NBI-ME with self contrast method 2 weeks later.Patients in group A underwent NBI-ME,then were diagnosed by VS classifi-cation standard.Patients in group B were diagnosed with white light endoscopy.The sensitivity,specificity, positive predictive value,negative predictive value and accuracy between group A and group B were com-pared.Results The sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value,negative predictive value and accura-cy of white light endoscopy in the diagnosis of early gastric carcinoma lesions were 76.19% (16 /21 ), 45.57%(36 /79),27.12%(16 /59),87.80%(36 /41)and 52.00%(52 /100),respectively;while the these variables of NBI-ME for early gastric carcinoma lesions were 95.24%(20 /21),97.47%(77 /79), 90.91%(20 /22),98.72%(77 /78)and 97.00%(97 /100),respectively.The accuracy of NBI-ME for early gastric carcinoma lesions was significantly higher than that of white light endoscopy(χ2 =53.30,P <0.01).Conclusion NBI-ME is convenient and effective in the diagnosis of early gastric carcinoma lesions with high consistency of pathology and good clinical application value.

OBJECTIVETo compare the difference of effects on hearing injury between punching machine noise and steady state noise.

METHODSThe subjects of present study were 100 workers, included 38 workers exposed to punching machine noise from forging shops and 62 workers exposed to steady state noise from drawbench or abrasive dust workshops. The individual noise dosimetries were used to detect noise that workers exposed, and cumulative noise exposure (CNE) was then calculated. On the basis of GBZ 49-2007, the worker hearing was tested, and the results were assessed.

RESULTSThere were no differences of CNE between group exposed to punching machine noise and group exposed to steady state noise. The hearing loss rate (55.3%) at high frequency in workers exposed to punching machine noise was significantly higher than that (32.3%) in workers exposed to steady state noise (P < 0.01). CNE and the hearing loss rate at high frequency showed dose-response relationship (P < 0.01).

CONCLUSIONwhen the exposure levels of workers were similar, the hearing injury induced by punching machine noise may be significantly higher than that induced by steady state noise.

OBJECTIVE: To construct hypoxia/radiation inducible promotor HRE1.Egr-1, and to observe its promotive effect on the expression of yCDglyTK gene in nasopharyngeal cancer HNE-1 cells and the anti-tumor effect of yCDglyTK and to lay an experimental foundation for further exploration of new gene-radio therapy of nasopharyngeal cancer. METHODS: pcDNA3.1(-)HRE1.Egr-1.yCDglyTK was constructed by gene recombination technique. Stable yCDglyTK-expressing HNE-1 cells were generated by transfecting the recombinant plasmid into the target cells with liposome. The expression of yCDglyTK was detected by Western blot in 4 groups: a normoxia group, a radiation group, a hypoxia group, and a hypoxia and radiation group. The killing effect of 5-FC in different circumstances was determined by MTT. RESULTS: The expression of yCDglyTK/5-FC gene in all the groups was significantly different(P<0.01),especially in the hypoxia and radiation group. The killing effect of 5-FC on HNE1 cells varied under different conditions, especially in the hypoxia and radiation group. CONCLUSION Hypoxia and radiation can induce the activity of fusion promoter HRE1.Egr-1, and obviously promote the anti-tumor effect of yCDglyTK/5-FC system, suggesting that yCDglyTK may be a candidate suicide gene for gene-radio therapy of NPC.
