Objective To investigate the effect of acute normovolemic hemodilution on immune function by observing the level change of lymphocyte subsets in maternity sera.Methods 60 ASA I ～ Ⅱ parturients were divided into 2 groups,30 cases in each group.Parturients of group A received acute normovolemic hemodilution and parturients of group C received allogeneic blood transfusion.Blood pressure,heart rate,duration of the cesarean section and blood loss were observed.2mL blood samples were taken from the mothers'vein before the surgery,1 day after the surgery,5 days after the surgery.Flow cytometry was used to measure T lymphocyte subsets.Results The levels of CD3+,CD4+,CD8+,CD4+/CDs+ before the surgery had no statistically significant differences between two groups (P ＞ 0.05).The levels of CD3+ [(52.35 ±5.62)％,(48.44±6.45)％],CD4+ [(36.90±7.93)％,(32.05 ± 8.94)％],CD4+/CD8+ [(1.15 ± 0.26),(0.97 ± 0.22)] were much lower 1 day after the surgery than those of preoperation [CD3+:(59.67 ± 3.45) ％,(60.58 ± 4.27) ％ ; CD4+:(43.71 ± 8.45) ％,(43.21 ± 8.45) ％ ; CD4+/CDs+:(1.41 ±0.38),(1.45 ±0.48)] in both two groups(t =6.10,2.50;3.22,4.97;3.09,4.98;P ＜0.05).In group A,the levels of CD3+,CD4+,CD4+/CD8+ [(58.78 ± 5.24) ％,(43.18 ± 8.48) ％,(1.41 ± 0.41)] had no statistical differences 5 days after the surgery(P ＞ 0.05) compared with those of preoperation.While in group C,the levels of CD3+ [(57.11 ± 6.81) ％],CD4+ [(38.68 ± 7.70) ％],CD4+/CDs+ [(1.19 ± 0.37)] were lower than the levels before the surgery[(60.58 ± 4.27) ％,(43.21 ± 8.45) ％,(1.45 ± 0.48)],and of the differences were statistically significant (t =2.46,2.17,2.35 ;P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Compared with allegeic transfusion,acute normovolemic hemodilution could benefit the recovery of parturients by alleviate the inhibitory effect of transfusion on the immune function.

Objective To compare the effects of allogeneic blood transfusion and hemodiluted autotransfusion on cellular immune function in the patients undergoing cesarean section.Methods Sixty patients,aged 20-35 yr,weighing 50-80 kg,of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ,scheduled for elective cesarean section,were randomly divided into 2 groups (n =30 each) using a random number table:hemodiluted autotransfusion group (group HAT) and allogeneic blood transfusion group (group ABT).Both groups received epidural anesthesia.The radial artery was cannulated after epidural anesthesia,and the autologous blood was collected in group HAT.The autologous blood transfusion timing:intraoperative blood loss was expected to exceed 20％ of blood volume.For the patients in whom intraoperative blood loss was not expected to exceed 20％ of blood volume,bleeding was stopped,and autologous blood was infused intravenously after peritoneum closure.The allogeneic blood transfusion timing:when hemoglobin ＜ 70 g/L,packed red blood cells 1-5 U were infused intravenously;when prothrombin time,or activated partial thromboplastin time ＞ 1.5 times of the normal value,the fresh frozen plasma 100-400 ml was infused intravenously;when platelet count＜50× 109/L,platelets 10-40 U were infused intravenously.When entering the operating room (T0),on 1st day after operation (T1),and on 5th day after operation (T2),blood samples were collected to detect the levels of T lymphocyte subsets CD3+,CD4+ and CD8+ (using FACScan flow cytometer),and serum interleukin-2 (IL-2) and IL-6 concentrations (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay).CD4+/CD8+ ratio was calculated.Results Compared with the values at T0,the levels of CD3+ and CD4+,CD4+/CD8+ ratio,and serum IL-2 concentrations were significantly decreased,and the serum IL-6 concentrations were increased at T1,2 in group ABT,and at T1 in group HAT (P＜0.05).Compared with group ABT,the CD3+ and CD4+ levels,CD4+/CD8+ ratio and serum IL-6 concentrations were significantly increased at T1,and the serum IL-2 concentrations were increased at T1,2 in group HAT (P＜0.05).Conclusion Compared with allogeneic transfusion,hemodiluted autotransfusion has less inhibitory effect on cellular immune function in the patients undergoing cesarean section.

In order to study the effects of Ca2+ in the biosynthesis of salvianolic acid B (Sal B) induced by salicylic acid (SA) in the young seedlings of Salvia miltiorrhiza, we used confocal laser scanning microscopy and high performance liquid chromatography to measure the change of relative fluorescence intensity of Ca2+ and the contents of Sal B induced by SA before and after the application of extracellular calcium channel inhibitors (VP and LaCl3), intracellular calcium channel inhibitor (LiCl), as well as intracellular calmodulin antagonist (TFP). SA could induce the calcium burst, and the Ca2+ peak could last to 2-3 min in the guard cells of S. miltiorrhiza, which prompted the biosynthesis of Sal B after the Ca2+ burst. Both Vp or LaCl3, and LiCl or TFP could inhibit the burst of Ca2+ and the biosynthesis of Sal B. The above results demonstrated that Ca2+ from the extracellular and the intracellular calcium store regulate the biosynthesis of Sal B elicited by salicylic acid in S. miltiorrhiz young seedlings.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between serum retinol binding protein (RBP), stromal cell derived factor-1 (SDF-1) and renal function in patients with diabetic nephropathy (DKD).Methods:The patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) admitted to Yantai Affiliated Hospital of Binzhou Medical College from October 2017 to October 2020 were prospectively selected, 438 patients were divided into simple T2DM group ( n=276)and DKD group( n=162) according to the presence or absence of DKD, according to the ratio of urinary albinin/creatinine (UACR) were divided into normal( n=25), microalbuminuria ( n=75) and macroalbuminuria group ( n=62), according to the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were divided into G1 stage ( n=28), G2 stage ( n=27), G3A + G3B stage ( n=35), G4 stage ( n=39)and G5 stages( n=33). The relationship between RBP, SDF-1 and renal function index UACR, serum uric acid (UA), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), β 2-microglobulin (β 2-MG) and serum creatinine (Scr) was analyzed. Measurement data of normal distribution were expressed as Mean± standard deviation ( Mean± SD). Independent sample t-test was used for comparison between two groups, and one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison between multiple groups.Chi-square test was used to compare the enumeration data between groups. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to analyze the discriminant value of RBP and SDF-1 for DKD. Pearson was used for correlation analysis among indicators. Multivariate linear regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of RBP. Results:In the DKD group, the duration of diabetes was longer, the levels of RBP, UACR, UA, BUN, β 2-MG, Scr were high, SDF-1 and eGFR were lower, with statistically significant differences compared with the simple T2DM group( P<0.05).The areas under the curve of RBP and SDF-1 to distinguish DKD were 0.903 and 0.868, and the optimal cut-off values was 70.71 mg/L and 5.69 ng/mL. With the increase of urinary albumin and clinical stage, the levels of RBP, UACR, UA, BUN, β 2-MG, Scr increased gradually, while SDF-1 and eGFR decreased gradually, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05).RBP was positively correlated with UACR, UA, BUN, β 2-MG and Scr in DKD patients ( r=0.764, 0.787, 0.693, 0.577, 0.801, P<0.000 1), and negatively correlated with EGFR ( r=-0.782, P<0.000 1). SDF-1 was negatively correlated with UACR, UA, BUN, β 2-MG and Scr ( r=-0.744, -0.794, -0.666, -0.605, -0.820, P<0.000 1), and positively correlated with EGFR ( r=0.767, P<0.000 1). The multiple linear regression equation was RBP=29.852+ 0.007UACR+ 0.101UA+ 0.497BUN+ 0.034Scr-0.083eGFR ( P<0.001). Conclusion:RBP and SDF-1 have certain discriminant value for DKD patients in T2DM population, and the degree of DKD renal function injury is positively correlated with RBP and negatively correlated with SDF-1, the increase of UACR, UA, BUN, Scr and the decrease of eGFR are risk factors for the increase of RBP.

Objective To analyze the therapeutic effects of chemotherapy after chidamide pretreatment in 16 cases of high-risk and refractory lymphoid malignancy. Methods The efficacy and adverse reactions of 16 patients with high-risk and refractory lymphoid malignancy who received chidamide combined with chemotherapy after 3 days pretreatment of chidamide were analyzed. Results Sixteen patients included 6 males and 10 females, and the median age was 49.5 years old (23-88 years old). The median course of previous systemic chemotherapy was 4 (range 0-22). Among 14 patients who received induction chemotherapy, 7 patients achieved complete remission (CR), 7 patients achieved partial remission (PR). Fourteen patients had achieved clinical efficacy, and the overall response rate (ORR) was 100 %. After 2 cases had remission , the patients who entered this regimen for consolidation chemotherapy also had durable CR. The median follow-up time was 13 months (range 2-24 months) until December 2017. Nine cases had overall survival (OS), 7 cases died and 9 cases had progression-free survival. Common adverse effects of the chemotherapy included mild and controllable gastrointestinal reactions after chidamide. Conclusion Chemotherapy after chidamide pretreatment may improve the effect and prognosis of high-risk or refractory lymphoid malignancy.

Objective To study the clinical characteristics of Japanese encephalitis (JE) in 34 adult patients and to improve the level of diagnosis of this disease.Methods The clinical manifestations,laboratory results and radiological features of 34 adult patients with JE in our hospital from July 2017 to September 2017 were summarized and the progonsis was observed.The modified Rankin Scale (mRS) was used to evaluate the progonsis.Results Eighteen patients were males and 16 patients were females with the average age of (45.39 ± 16.34) years in 34 patients who were diagnosed as JE.The major clinical features of JE patients included fever (34,100％) with the average temperature of (39.4 ± 1.1) ℃ on admission,headache (26,76％),seizures (7,21％),decreased consciousness (25,74％) on day 2.6 ± 1.4 after the onset,respiratory failure (9,26％) on day 3.8 ± 1.6 after the onset.The major features of laboratory results included white blood cells increase (15,44％),blood hematocrit decrease (25,74％),eosinophil absolute value decrease (29,85％),cerebrospinal fluid pressure increase (12,35％),cerebrospinal fluid protein increase (27,79％),cerebrospinal fluid white blood cells increase (30,88％).Brain MRI scan of abnormal signal was found abnormal in up to 54％patients (14/26),involving the thalamus,basal ganglia,mesencephalon,temporal lobe,hippocampus and occipital lobe,especially in the area of bilateral thalamus and mesencephalon.The follow-up showed three cases were dead;mRS score was 0 in twenty-one cases,1 or 2 in five cases,3 or 4 in three cases,5 in two cases five-six months after onset;the sequelaes were cognitive impairment in nine patients and movement disorder in five patients.Conclusions The clinical symptoms of JE in adults are severe.The main clinical manifestations of JE are hyperthermia,disturbance of consciousness,seizures and respiratory failure,with characteristic imaging findings on brain MRI.JE is a disease with high mortality and severe long-term sequelae.

The paper reports two cases of lipoprotein glomerulopathy (LPG) in children. The Sanger sequencing results in 2 cases indicated apolipoprotein E gene mutation[c.127 (exon3) C>T, p.R43C (p.Arg43Cys); c.494 (exon4) G>C, p.R165P (p.Arg165Pro),respectively]. Renal pathological presentation of two children showed that a large number of lipoprotein emboli were formed in the glomerular capillary loop, and the diagnosis of LPG was confirmed. The onset of LPG has no specific clinical manifestation, which is easy to be undiagnosed or misdiagnosed. Renal biopsy is a diagnostic means, glucocorticoid treatment is ineffective, and long-term lipid-lowering treatment may be required for LPG.

ObjectiveTo explore low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) combined with bilateral isokinematic training (BIT) on upper limb motor function and activities of daily living of stroke patients. MethodsFrom September, 2021 to September, 2022, 60 stroke inpatients in Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital were randomly divided into rTMS group (n = 20), BIT group (n = 20) and combination group (n = 20). All the patients accepted routine rehabilitation, moreover, rTMS group accepted 1 Hz rTMS on healthy side, BIT group accepted BIT, and the combination group accepted the combination of 1 Hz rTMS on healthy side and BIT, for four weeks. They were evaluated with Fugl-Meyer Assessment-Upper Extremities (FMA-UE), Wolf Motor Function Test (WMFT), Carroll Upper Extremities Function Test (UEFT) and modified Barthel Index (MBI) before and after treatment. ResultsThe scores of FMA-UE, WMFT, UEFT and MBI significantly improved in all the groups after treatment (|t| > 5.052, P < 0.001), and improved the most in the combination group (F > 9.834, P < 0.001). ConclusionBoth low-frequency rTMS and BIT can effectively improve upper limb motor function and activities of daily living of stroke patients, and the combination of them is more effective.
