Objective To explore the role of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs)-induced endothelial cell damage in the pathogenesis of dermatomyositis (DM)-associated interstitial lung disease (ILD).Methods Serum free DNA and krebs von den lungen-6 (KL-6) level were tested in healthy controls,dermatomyositis patients with or without interstitial lung disease (DM-ILD and DM-NILD).Subjects' peripheral blood neutrophils were stimulated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA),then human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were co-cultured with NETs.The cell morphology was observed by the inverted phase contrast microscope.Cell viability was detected by cell counting kit-8 (CCK8).Results The concentration of serum free DNA in DM patients [(271.27 ± 76.53) μg/L] was significantly higher than that in health control (HC) [(152.89 ± 37.34) μg/L,P ＜ 0.001].Moreover,free DNA level in DM-ILD patients [(302.67 ± 74.15) μg/L] was higher than that in DM-NILD patients [(235.59 ±63.55) μg/L,P ＜0.005].The concentration of KL-6in DM patients [(3.08 ±2.07) μg/L] was higher than that in HC [(0.87 ± 0.51) μg/L,P ＜ 0.001].Similarly,KL-6 in DM-ILD patients [(4.00 ± 2.44) μg/L] was higher than that of DM-NILD patients [(2.03 ± 0.61) μg/L,P ＜ 0.005].Free DNA and KL-6 were positively correlated (r =0.251,P ＜ 0.05).The survival of endothelial cells in DM group (53 ± 11) ％ was lower than that of HC group [(70 ± 5) ％,P ＜ 0.001].Not surprisingly,the survival of endothelial cells in DM-ILD group (44 ±4) ％ was lower than that in DM-NILD group [(61 ± 8) ％,P ＜ 0.01].Conclusion NETs could play an important role in the pathogenesis of dermatomyositis associated interstitial lung disease,suggesting that NETs may be the potential therapeutic target.

AIM: To study the physiological function changes of the tears film after rebuilding ocular surface with corneal stem cells, and to discuss the validity and the estimate system of rebuilding ocular surface with the corneal stem cells. METHODS: The male New Zealand rabbits were used to establish the alkali burning model in the right eye. The corneal stem cells of the left eye were cultured on the amniotic membrane in vivo, and then transplanted to the right eye. Furthermore, the physiological function changes of the tear film were examined. RESULTS: Compared to the before alkali burning, the ocular surface cell morphology was similar after rebuilding ocular surface with the corneal stem cells, which were cultured on the amniotic membrane in vivo; The tear film breakup time test showed the a remarkable difference between after and before the alkali burning, but the cell modality after rebuilding had no remarkable difference compared to that before the alkali burning. CONCLUSIONS: It's an effective method to rebuild the ocular surface with the corneal stem cells in vivo, the cell framework and the physiological function of the tears film recover well after rebuilding. It may be a validity estimate system of rebuilding ocular surface to analyze framework and configuration of the ocular surface and test the tear film breakup time.

Objective To study the relationship between magnesium level in umbilical vein and mother′s peripheral blood with intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) and fetal weight. Methods 39 pregnant women with IUGR were randomly divided into 3 groups: Group 1 (n= 14): The patients were treated with 10% glucose 500 ml + danshen compound 14 ml + low molecular weight dextran 500 ml iv; Group 2 (n= 14): in addition to the same treatment as in group 1, 25% magnesium sulfate 20 ml in 5% glucose 500 ml iv was given; Group 3 (n= 11): no treatment was given; and another 12 normal term delivery women were served as control. Magnesium concentration levels were determined in both maternal peripheral blood and their fetal umbilical vein. Results Maternal serum magnesium level was higher in Group 2 (1 06?0 09) mmol/L than that in Group 1 (0 69?0 05) mmol/L (P

Streptococcus pneumoniae(S.pn) is an opportunity pathogenic bacteria,environmental factors play a key role in the pathogenicity of S.pn. It is important to study virulent gene in vivo. The S.pn suicide plasmid containing gfp reporter was constructed by fusing the genes pneumolysin and gfp,in which gfp is an excellent molecule probe in vivo. The plasmid was integrated to No.22 S.pn by homologous recombination. The recombinant S.pn was gained and evaluated in aspects of fluorescence excitation, biological character and physio-activity. The results showed it is efficient and available to report the expression of virulent genes in vivo and in vitro, which will provide a new easy method for evaluating and screening the virulent genes of S.pn in vivo.

Objective To find out the benefit and cost of color ultrasonic devices in our hospital after the drop of large equipment examine fee.Methods Data of benefit and cost on 7 color ultrasonic devices in using are collected and analyzed by using Benefit Cost Ratio(BCR) method.Results The higher valuable the equipments are,the more fixed cost they have with lower BCR.Conclusion Buying cheaper equipment is the only way to increase the pure benefit under the precondition of normal diagnosis by devices.

Objective:To investigate the psychological state of the patients from Wenchuan Earthquake treated in some local and military hospitals.Methods:We consulted the general data and pathogenetic condition of 116 patients from the earthquake-stricken area of Sichuan,studied their mental health using the Hamilton Anxiety Scale(HAMA) and investigated their psychological changes during the rescue and treatment with self-designed questionnaires.Results:The earthquake patients manifested obvious anxiety in the initial stage and their mental health was gradually improved towards the end of the rescue process.Conclusion:Wenchuan Earthquake caused great psychological trauma in the earthquake patients,for whom timely psychological intervention is of utmost importance.

Objective: To analyze the prevalence of reduced visual acuity (VA) and to examine the association between reduced visual acuity and influencing factors among Chinese Han students, so as to provide bases for the prevention and treatment of reduced visual acuity.Methods: Subjects were from 2014 Chinese National Surveys on Students' Constitution and Health (CNSSCH).In this survey, 261 832 Han students aged 7-22 years participated.Unaided distance VA was measured using a retro-illuminated lgMAR chart with tumbling-E optotypes.Ametropia was determined by using serial bronchoscopy.Logistic regression was used to assess the association between reduced visual acuity and influencing factors.ArcMap 10 was used to map the regional distribution of reduced visual acuity.Results: Nationwide, the overall prevalence of reduced visual acuity was 66.6%, and was highest among the urban girls (73.5%).The prevalence of myopia was 60.8% and accounted for more than 90% among the students with reduced visual acuity.Compared with 2010 CNSSCH, the increments of reduced visual acuity were highest in the students aged 13-15 years (6.8 percentage points).The prevalence of reduced visual acuity ranged from 50.6% to 76.2% in each province (autonomous region, municipality) in 2014 CNSSCH.The top three of the prevalence of reduced visual acuity were Jiangsu (76.2%), Zhejiang (76.0%) and Shandong (75.9%), and the lowest three were Hainan (50.6%), Guizhou (53.9%) and Xinjiang (57.6%).Logistic regression showed that the girls, urban students, and students who spent ≥2 h per day in their after school homework were more likely to develop reduced visual acuity, but the students with physical activity time ≥2 h per day were less likely to develop reduced visual acuity.Conclusion: Although the situation was different in each province (autonomous region, municipality), reduced visual acuity has become a public concern affecting the health of students in China.Based on the intervention on the key populations, such as urban girls and pre adolescent students, we should also continue to strengthen the prevention and control for reduced visual acuity among all students.
