Objective To investigate the predictive value of IL-9 cytokines in the patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).Methods According to Berlin definition of ARDS published in 2012,data of 28 patients with ARDS and another 22 healthy subjects as control were collected for prospective study from June,2013 to July,2014.Of them,there were 23 patients with severe pneumonia,1 patient with acute mercury poisoning,2 patients with severe acute pancreatitis,2 patients with acute paraquat poisoning.The survivors of ARDS patients were followed up.The ARDS patients were divided into moderate group (n =18) and severe group (n =10) as per the severity of the disease diagnosed at the first day after admission.And the ARDS patients were also divided into non-survival group (n =15) and survival group (n =13) according to the ARDS patients survived for 28 days.Three mLs of peripheral venous blood were collected in the early morning from fasted ARDS patients on the first and the third day after diagnosis of ARDS confirmed,and those of healthy subjects were collected on the first day after admission.The IL-9 cytokine level of peripheral venous blood detected by using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).The comparisons of levels of IL-9 cytokine were carried out between ARDS group and control group on the first day after diagnosis of ARDS established,between moderate group and severe group on the first day and the third day,and between survival group and non-survival group.The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the performance of IL-9 as a prognostic indicator in the early stage of ARDS.Data were analyzed by using SPSS 19.0 software.Results On the first day after diagnosis of ARDS,there were no statistically significant differences in age,APACHE Ⅱ score,procalcitonin (PCT),C-reactive protein (CRP),white blood cell count,lactate,and albumin between survival group and non-survival group (P ＞ 0.05).PH value in non-survival group was significantly lower than that in survival group (P＜0.05).IL-9 cytokine level of peripheral venous serum in ARDS group was significantly higher than that in healthy control group (P ＜ 0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in IL-9 level of peripheral venous serum both between moderate group and severe group and between survival group and non-survival group (P ＞ 0.05).On the third day,IL-9 level in severe group was significantly higher than that in moderate group (P ＜ 0.05),and that in survival group was significantly lower than that in non-survival group (P ＜ 0.05).The ROC of IL-9 at the first day for predicting mortality had all area under curve (AUC) to be 0.579 (95％ CI 0.361-0.798,P ＞ 0.05).The ROC of IL-9 on the third day for predicting mortality had AUC of 0.769 (95％ CI 0.592-0.947,P ＜ 0.05).When the cut-off value of IL-9 for the death followed up for 28 day' s was 2.88 pg/mL,the sensitivity was 86.7％,and the specificity was 61.5％.Conclusions IL-9 levels of in patients with ARDS were significantly higher,and IL-9 level can be helpful for the assessment of ARDS severity in the early stage,and for prognosis as well.

Objective To investigate the clinical curative effects and side effects of concurrent radiotherapy combined with interventional artery infusion chemotherapy in advanced cervical carcinoma.Methods 48 patients with advanced cervical carcinoma were randomly divided into two groups including concurrent radiotherapy combied with interventional artery.infusion ehemotherapy group (25 patients) and radiotherapy group (23 patients).Each patient in the concurrent radiotherapy combined with interventional artery infusion chemotherapy group was given THP,DDP and 5-Fu,repeatedly every 28 days,total 3-4 cycles.Radiotherapy was given at the same time.Results The effective rates of the concurrent radiotherapy combined with interventional artery infusion chemotherapy group and radiotherapy group were 92.0 ％ (23/25)and 69.6 ％ (16/23),respectively.The overall 3 year survival rates for the patients in concurrent radiotherapy eombined with interventional artery infusion chemotherapy group and radiotherapy group were 80.0 ％ (20/25)and 52.2 ％ (12/23),respectively,and there was statistically significant between the 2 groups (all P ＜ 0.05).No more side effects were found in the concurrent radiotherapy combined interventional artery infusion chemotherapy group (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Concurrent radiotherapy combined with interventional artery infusion chemotherapy in advanced cervical carcinoma can increase short term therapeutic effect and improve the survival rate of the patients without more side effects.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the value of serum galactomannan platelia aspergillus kit in the diagnosis and treatment of invasive fungal infection(IFI) patients. MethodsA total of 178 serum samples from 74 high risk patients were collected. ELISA assay was used to detect the level of GM antigen. Refer to domestic IFI diagnostic criteria, 16 patients include the proven cases and probable cases were defined as study group, while 29 patients of improbable cases defined as control group. Fourflod table was founded,by which the sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value, negative predictive value of this GM test were calculated. Meanwhile, a total of 53 patients received antifungal therapy which divided into GM-positive group(21 patients with I≥0. 5) and GM-negative group(32 patients with I ＜0. 5). The therapeutic effect comparison of two groups was made according to curative effect criterion. ResultsAccording to the certainty level of IFI diagnosis, 1,9,10 and 4 patients were identified as GM positive in proven, probable,possible and improbable IFI groups respectively. The prevalence of GM in these 4 groups was 50％ ,64％ ,34％ and 14％ ,respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of galactomannan ELISA assay were 63％ ,86％ respectively. The positive and negative predictive values were 71％ and 81％ respectively. The diagnose accordance rate was 78％, the Younden index was 0. 49. The efficacy of fluconazole in GM-positive patients was significant lower than in GMnegative patients( x2 =4. 95 ,P ＜0. 05) ,while The efficacy of non-fluconazole drug was superior to that in GM-negative patients( x2 =4. 88,P ＜ 0. 05). After antifungal therapy, the GM value of GM-positive patients decreased significantly( t =2. 13 ,P ＜0. 05). ConclusionThe galactomannan ELISA assay with high specificity, could be helpful in diagnosis and choicing effective anti-fungi drug in clinic.

Objective To evaluate the effect of rehabilitation training on dysphagia and trismus in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma after radiotherapy.Methods Fony-three post-radiotherapy nasopharyngeal carcino-ma patients were divided into a rehabilitation group and a control group.Both groups were subjected to routine treat-ment,while the rehabilitation group received rehabilitation training in addition.The patients were assessed with a wa-ter-swallowing test of swallowing.Late effects of normal tissues/subjective and objective medical analysis(LENT/SOMA)scored and inter-incisor distance were measured to assess trismus before and after treatment.Results The rehabilitation group displayed significant improvement in swallowing as well as increased inter-incisor distance.Con-clusions Rehabilitation training can improve swallowing,prevent or delay trismus and improve the quality of life of patients.

Objective To compare the efficacy of endovascular interventional treatment and surgical clipping in posterior communicating artery aneurysm (PCoAA) patients with fetal-type posterior cerebral artery (fPCA).Methods The PCoAA patients with fPCA were enrolled.Their baseline clinical data were collected.The modified Rankin Scale (mRS) was used to assess the clinical outcomes at six months after procedure.The mRS score 0-2 was defined as good outcome.Results A total of 35 PCoAA patients with fPCA were enrolled into the study,23 were treated with interventional embolization therapy and 12 were treated with craniotomy clipping.There were no significant differences in age,gender,preoperative Fisher grade,Hunt-Hess grade,baseline GCS scores,and aneurysm typing between the 2 groups.The good outcome rate of the interventional embolization group at 6 months was higher than that of the surgical clipping group,but there was no significant difference (65.22％ vs.41.67％;P =0.282).Results The efficacy of PCoAA using interventional embolization therapy combined fPCA is almost the same as craniotomy clipping.
