Objective To summarize the clinical features and biological markers of critically ill children with pancreatic necrosis. Methods The clinical data of 5 ill children whose autopsy confirmed pancreatic necrosis in our hospital from 2003 to 2009 were collected and the pathological results were analyzed.Results Five cases appeared as acute onset and fever. Clinical manifestation of 2 cases included abdominal pain and 2 cases represented abdominal bulging,lots of flatulence and gastrointestinal bleeding. Four cases represented abnormal liver function and significant decrease of albumin,3 cases with increase of C-reactive protein. No case showed abnormal pancreas acoustic image of abdominal B-ultrasonography. Autopsy confirmed that 5 cases represented varying degrees necrosis of the pancreas, which complicated with the damage of adrenal gland,liver,lung,heart, spleen, kidney,intestine, thymus, mediastinal and mesenteric lymphnodes. All died in 36 hours after the children'conditions were changed. Two cases died of acute hemorrhagic necrosis of the pancreas,3 cases died of multiple organ failure based on pancreatic necrosis. Conclusion Pancreatic necrosis in critically ill children presents acute onset and short course,is prone to result in multiple organ damage or failure.

Objective To explore the feasibility and operation technique of endoscopic thyroid surgery. Methods A retrospective analysis was made on the clinical data of 42 patients with various thyroid diseases who were treated by endoscopic thyroidectomy.Results 41 cases were successful,1 case was converted to open operation because of operative bleeding. One case had a small area of ecchymosis in the presternal skin postoperatively, and 1 with hoarseness that recovered 3d after operation.No case of parathyroid injury or subcutaneous emphysema.The anterior cervical drain was removed 24h after operation, and patients were discharged 5d after operation.Conclusions With adherence to the indications of endoscopic thyroidectomy and operating with fine technique , endoscopic thyroidectomy is safe for the treatment of patients with thyroid disease and has a more favorable cosmetic effect.

Objective To explore the correlation between expression of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappa B) in peripheral blood monouclear cells(PBMC) and the severity of coronary artery lesion in patients with acute coronary syndrome(ACS). Methods The 81 patients were diagnosed with coronary heart disease, and all of them underwent immediate or selective coronary angiography(CAG) The nuclear protein level of activated NF-B was detected by Western blot and semi-quantity image analysis was done. Coronary angiograms were scored according to Gensini integration. The relationship between NF-κB and Gensini score was analyzed. Results The protein expression of NF-κB in PBMC in ACS group was significantly higher than that in stable angina group and control group (0.85±0.18 vs. O.75±0.21 and 0.71±0.23, F=3.72, P<0.05). The protein expression of NF-κB was not correlated with Gensini score(r=0.07, P>0.05). Conclusions The ACS patients have the activation of NF-κB in PBMC. The protein expression of NF-κB is not correlated with Gensini score, which does not suggest an implication of the severity of coronary artery.

Objective To evaluate the utility of CD4+ TCR tetramers‐based flow cytometric analysis and cell climbing slice assay in detecting antigen‐specific CD14+ monocytes in the blood of tuberculosis (TB) patients .Methods CD4+ TCR tetramers were used to detect tetramer‐positive CD14+ monocytes in the peripheral blood (PBL ) samples of inpatients with advanced pulmonary TB (PTB) by flow cytometric analysis .The PBL samples obtained from non‐TB patients and umbilical cords were used as controls .These tetramers were also used to examine tetramer‐bound CD14+ monocytes and Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) antigen‐specific and tetramer‐bound cells by cell climbing slice in situ staining .Results The median percentage of tetramer‐bound CD14+ monocytes in PBL samples from PTB patients ,non‐TB patients and umbilical cords were 1 .32% , 0 .50% and 0 .26% respectively by using CD4+ Vα21‐J39/Vβ29‐D1‐J2 tetramer , while the medians were 1 .05% , 0 .49% and 0 .19% respectively by using CD4+ Vα21‐J39/Vβ29‐D2‐J2 tetramer .
