Objective To investigate the effects of DNaseⅠ-treated streptococcal antigens on peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMC)proliferation in psoriasis patients.Methods PBMC from 15 patients with psoriasis and 10 healthy controls were stimulated with three concentrations(2,10,25?g/mL) of streptococcal antigens(SA), nd DNaseⅠ-treated streptococcal antigens(DNaseⅠ-SA).After 72 h of culture,cellular proliferation was determined by ~3H thymidine incorporation.Results The DNaseⅠ-SA,at all the concentrations tested,was less potent than the corresponding concentrations of SA(P0.05),however,the lower concentrations(2,10?g/mL) of DNaseⅠ-SA were less potent than those of SA(P0.05).Also,the extent of proliferation response to SA and DNaseⅠ-SA was higher in the patients than in the controls(P

Objective To investigate the prevalence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in the army old male hypertensive patients in Beijing. Methods From October 2011 to April 2014, old male patients in the geriatric department of the General Hospital of Chi-nese People's Liberation Army were enrolled and categorized into 3 groups: normotensive, well-controlled hypertensive and poorly-con-trolled hypertensive groups. The prevalence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases was recorded and binary logistic regression was used to analyze the differences among the groups. Results 719 old male patients were enrolled, 228 in normotensive group, 389 in well-con-trolled hypertensive group and 102 in poorly-controlled hypertensive group. Compared to normotensive group, there was more incidence of angina (OR=2.547, P<0.001), myocardial infarction (OR=2.493, P=0.003), cerebral thrombosis (OR=3.438, P=0.003) and peripheral artery atherosclerotic disease (OR=1.766, P=0.026) in the well-controlled hypertensive group, and it was more of angina (OR=4.123, P<0.001), la-cunar infarction (OR=2.810, P=0.020), cerebral thrombosis (OR=3.484, P=0.001) and peripheral artery atherosclerotic disease (OR=3.773, P<0.001) in the poorly-controlled hypertensive group. There was not significant difference of prevalence of cerebral hemorrhage (0.9%, 1%and 1%, respectively). Conclusion In the army old male hypertensive patients in Beijing, control rate of blood pressure was higher than com-mon population, but the prevalence of ischemic diseases was still higher than in the normotensive patients. Anti-hypertension and control of other risk factors could reduce the mobidity of cerebral haemorrahge.

Objective To compare the effecacy and safety of lower dose peginterferon alfa-2b plus ribavirin versus standard interferon alfa-2b plus ribavirin for treatment of chronic hepatitis C in China.Methods 192 patients with chronic hepatitis C were assigned peginterferon alfa-2b 0.5?g/kg each week plus ribavirin 750～1050 mg/d or standard interferon alfa-2b 3 MIU TIW plus ribavirin 750～1050 mg/d for 48-week treatment and 24-week fellow-up.Results The sustained virological response (SVR)rate in lowe-dose peginterferon alfa-2b plus ribavirin group was 53.8%,and the SVR rate in standard interferon alfa-2b plus ribavirin was 58.1%.The SVR was similar between the two treat- ment group(P=0.966 for both comparisons).The adverse event rate was higher in peginterferon al- fa-2b plus ribavirin group than in standard interferon alfa-2b plus ribavirin group(P=0.033 for both comparisons),but there was no new or unique adverse event in related to pegylation of interferon alfa-2b. Conclusion The effecacy and safety was similar between lower-dose peginterferon alfa-2b plus ribavirin and standard interferon alfa-2b plus ribavirin for treatment of chronic hepatitis C.
