Objective To analysis curative effect of triple therapy and sequential therapy for eradication of Helicobacter pylori in patients with long-term aspirin use.Methods 52 patients with long-term aspirin use who were diagnosed with helicobacter pylori infection were collected.All patients were divided into sequential group and triple group according to different drugs classified, each 26 cases in each group were given corresponding drug treatment, after the end of treatment, the serum pepsinogen, Hp-IgG antibody levels and Helicobacter pylori clearance rate were detected in all patients. Results After treatment, compared with the triple Group, in the sequential group, the levels of serum PG I and PG II were lower, and PGⅠ/PGⅡwas higher, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05);the serum Hp-IgG antibody levels were lower in the sequential group (P<0.05);the Hp clearance rate of patients in the sequential group was higher (P<0.05).Conclusion Compared with triple therapy, sequential therapy can lower serum PG, PG II and Hp-IgG levels, and improve the Hp clearance rate and clinical efficacy, have guiding significance to clinical.

Objective To investigate the clinical,laboratory and MRI imaging features of a spontaneous spinal subarachnoid hemorrhage(S-SAH)so as to improve the recognition of spontaneous (S-SAH).Methods The data of clinical,laboratory,MRI imaging features,treatment and prognosis of the spontaneous(S-SAH)were collected and statistically analyzed.Relevant literatures were then reviewed.Results The patient was a 75-year-old woman with neuromyelitisoptica spectrum disorders.During the course of hospitalization for intravenous infusion of high-dose methylprednisolone,the patient suffered from a sudden and severe migrating back pain that gradually progressed from the back to the neck and head,and signs of meningeal irritation occurred.After the exclusion of aortic dissection,acute coronary syndrome,pulmonary embolism,and fractures,further MRI scans of the head and spinal cord were performed.The MRI confirmed subarachnoid hemorrhage located in spinal cord and posterior cranial foss,and the diagnosis was spontaneous S-SAH.Conclusions Migrating back pain combined with signs of meningeal irritation is a characteristic clinical manifestation of S-SAH,and a prompt MRI evaluation of spinal cord is helpful to improve the early diagnosis and treatment.

OBJECTIVETo establish a strategy for screening and diagnosing common microdeletion and microduplication syndromes among children with idiopathic mental retardation and development abnormalities.

METHODSPotential chromosomal variations among patients with unexplained mental retardation, cardiac anomalies, particular facial features, learning disabilities and other clinical characteristics were detected with bacterial artificial chromosome BACs-on-Beads (BoBs) technique and karyotyping. Positive results were verified with array-based comparative genomic hybridization (Array-CGH).

RESULTSFifty eight of the 60 patients had a normal chromosome karyotype. Ten patients with microdeletion and microduplication syndromes were detected by BoBs, which included two positive cases identified through chromosome karyotyping. Two patients were respectively diagnosed as Smith-Magenis syndrome and Prader-Willi/Angelman syndrome by BoBs and the results were confirmed by Array-CGH.

CONCLUSIONBoBs is capable of detecting chromosome microdeletion and microduplication with high specificity and throughput, which can compensate the shortcomings of conventional cytogenetic technology and will be widely applied for clinical diagnosis.

【Objective】 To explore the role and mechanism of TRPC in promoting extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition in rat glomerular mesangial cells (HBZY-1). Methods Immunofluorescence staining was performed to observe the distribution and expression of TRPC1 and TRPC6 in HBZY-1 cells. After AngⅡ stimulation, qRT-PCR and Western blotting were used to detect the mRNA and protein expressions of Gαq/PLCβ4/TRPC signaling pathway main proteins and ECM deposition indicators (α-SMA, collagenⅢ and fibronectin). By silencing the expressions of TRPC1 and TRPC6 by RNA interference, the expressions of ECM deposition indicators were detected. Changes in [Ca²⁺]i influx were determined through Fluo-4AM Ca²⁺ imaging. 【Results】 Both TRPC1 and TRPC6 were expressed in HBZY-1, and were mainly located in cell membrane and cytoplasm. After AngⅡ stimulation, Gαq/PLCβ4/TRPC signaling pathway was activated, and the mRNA and protein expressions of Gαq, PLCβ4, TRPC1 and TRPC6 were all increased (P<0.05). [Ca²⁺]i influx also increased (P<0.01), and the mRNA and protein expressions of ECM deposition indicators (α-SMA, ColⅢ and Fn) were upregulated (P<0.05). Silencing the expressions of TRPC1 and TRPC6 by RNA interference led to decreased [Ca²⁺]i influx (P<0.05), and downregulated mRNA and protein expressions of ECM deposition indicators in HBZY-1 cells (P<0.05). The results suggested that inhibition of TRPC expressions could inhibit AngⅡ induced ECM deposition in HBZY-1 cells, which might be associated with decreased [Ca²⁺]i influx. 【Conclusion】 TRPC may be a novel therapeutic target of renal fibrosis.
