OBJECTIVE: To study the therapeutic effects of the specific immunotherapy (SIT) on allergic rhinitis and allergic rhinitis combined bronchial asthma. METHED: All patients were classified into allergic rhinitis group (AR group) with 32 patients and allergic rhinitis combined bronchial asthma group (AR+BA group) with 32 patients. Another health control group with 32 cases was designed as well. The allergens,symptom scores and therapeutic effects of the former two-group patients were analysis, and the serums of all three-group cases were extracted to evaluate the specific Immunoglobin E(sIgE), Interleukin-4 (IL-4). The SPSS13. 0 package was applied to conduct t-test and chi-square test, and the difference of P<0. 05 was regarded as statistical significance. RESULT: The main allergens of 64 patients were dermatophagoides farinae and dermatophagoides pteronyssinus. The improvement of symptom scores before and after SIT was statistical significant with P<0. 05. Although total effective rate reached 100% , AR group was superior than AR+BA group in term of the efficacy comparison, and P<0. 05 indicated the statistical significance. The serum sIgE, IL-4 values of three groups were brought into comparison, and P<0. 05 indicated the statistical significance of the difference. CONCLUSION The SIT on the AR, AR+BA is a safe and effective treatment, but different disease responds diversely. The long-term treatment course is recommended.

Objective To explore the effect of inhibiting Akt phosphorylation on tumor necrosis factor related apoptosis inducing ligand (TRAIL)-induced apoptosis of human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) H1299 cells with wild type EGFR and KRAS.Methods The TRAIL-induced apoptosis was examined by the Annexin V-FITC/PI.The expressions of TRAIL-activated Akt phosphorylation and p-Akt were measured by Western blot.After cells were treated with LY294002, an inhibitor of PI3K-Akt pathway, Annexin V-FITC/PI and Western blot were used to analyze the alteration of TRAIL-induced apoptosis and Akt phosphorylation, respectively.Results H1299 cells were not sensitive to TRAIL-induced apoptosis.When TRAIL concentration was 100 ng/ml, the apoptosis rate of the test group was significantly higher than that of the control group [(15.06±1.29) ％ vs (3.56±0.50) ％, t =66.953, P =0.000].When TRAIL concentration was 500 ng/ml, the difference was not statistically significant compared with apoptosis rate of 100 ng/ml TRAIL group [(18.65±2.09) ％ vs (15.06±1.29) ％, t =2.423, P =0.136].The expression level of Akt phosphorylation in H1299 cells was increased by TRAIL in a time-dependent way.When cells were pretreated with LY294002, TRAIL-induced Akt phosphorylation was suppressed to baseline level.At the same time, the apoptosis rate in LY294002-treated group was significantly higher than that in TRAIL group [(41.65±4.62) ％ vs (15.82±0.61) ％, t =39.028, P =0.001].Conclusions TRAIL-induced Akt phosphorylation can antagonize TRAIL-induced apoptosis.Inhibition of Akt phosphorylation can significantly enhance the sensitivity of NSCLC H1299 cells with wild type EGFR and KRAS to TRAIL-induced apoptosis.

Objective To compare the efficacy of the radical resection by laparoscopy versus open approach in perioperative period on the patients with rectal carcinoma,and investigate the feasibility,safety and oncological clearance of the laparoscopy.Methods The clinical data of 44 patients who underwent radical resection of rectal carcinoma by laparoscopy in our hospital were reviewed and compared with another 53patients who underwent an open approach in the same period.The surgery-related data,postoperative recovery status,tumor radical resection index,and postoperative complications by laparoscopy were analyzed by statistics,and compared with those by open approach,and evaluated the deference of too kinds of operation.Results This study showed a longer surgical time (260.45 ± 67.46) min vs ( 179.25 ± 40.92) min,P ＜0.05,a less intra-operative blood loss( 125.20 ±61.80) mL vs ( 198.02 ± 131.24) mL,P ＜0.05,in laparoscopic group compared with open approach.Meanwhile,it also showed an earlier recovery of bowel functions for discharge gas from anus,taking in food,and out-of-bed activity (4.34 ± 1.55) d vs(5.45 ± 1.55) d,P ＜0.05,in the laparoscopic group compared with open approach.There was no statistical difference of incidence of post-operative complications (5 cases vs 11 cases,P ＞0.05) between the two groups and the laparoscopic approach was also equal to the open approach as regard to post-operative stay (15.34 ±6.62) d vs (16.82±5.73) d,P ＞0.05,and demand of intra-operative blood transfusion (4 case vs 8 cases,P＞0.05 ).Conclusions Compared with open surgery,the radical resection of rectal carcinoma by laparoscopy has shown obvious advantages in smaller incision,less blood loss,less pain,earlier recovery of bowel and bladder functions,and earlier out-of-bed activity.And it is also possible by laparoscopy approach to decrease the post-operative complications and post-operative stay.Meanwhile,there is no significant deference on oncological clearance for laparoscopy compared with open approach during perioperative period,while the long term follow-up data is still needed to support the results.

Objective To summarize the experience of adjuvant therapy for primary hepatocellular carcinoma. Methods 316 cases of operable hepatocellular carcinoma were divided into three groups. Only hepatectomy were performed in group one (21 8cases).Preopemtive adjuvant TACE were done in group two (52 cases). Preoperative adjuvant TACE and postoperative trans-portal vein chemotherapy were done in group three (46 cases), which was named hepatectomy sequencing two vessel therapy. Results 1, 3 and 5 year survival rote were 51.2 %, 30.0 % and 20.5 % respectively in group one, 57.2 %, 43.0 % and 31.5 % in group two, 84.0 %, 62.5 % and 51.0 % in group three. The postoperative disease-free survival rate in group three was significantly higher than that in group one and group two (P ＜0.05). Conclusion Hepatectomy sequencing two vessels therapy in perioperative period might improve the survival rate, which can prevent and delay the incidence of recurrence and may improve the effect of liver resection.

Objective: To study the antihyperglycemic effect of flavonoids from seed (FSH) and fruit(FFH) of Hippophae rhamnoides L.on diabetic rats induced by streptozotocin (STZ). Methods: The STZ-induced diabetic rats were randomly divided into four groups and were given intragastrically (ig) water, metformin, FSH and FFH respectively once a day. After four weeks, the levels of serum glucose, fructosamine, lipid, protein, GSH and lactic acid (LD) were assayed. Results: FSH could reduce the levels of serum glucose, fructosamine and triglyceride significantly, increase the contents of serum total protein and albumin obviously, enhance the ability of antioxidation in STZ-induced diabetic rats. FSH also could decrease food and water intake of diabetic rats evidently. But FSH had little effect on LD, LDH, glycogen and body weight in diabetic rats. FFH was not as good as FSH. Conclusion: FSH is antihyperglycemic , and can improve the metabolic derangements of STZ- induced diabetic rats.

In this experiment the data of the infrared radiation spectrum of acupoints in human body were obtained through an ingenious device. In thirty-one healthy volunteer subjects and thirty-one patients suffering from coronary heart disease, we detected the infrared radiation spectra from some acupoints and compared them with those of the healthy subjects. The curves of patients showed more differences. After analyzing the data, we noted statistically significant differences in some fields between the healthy subjects and the patients. And after reducing the data, we observed significant differences in larger fields. So utilization of reduced data from patients for analysis is our choice.

Objective: To analyze the possible responses of parents of young children to Child sexual assault (CSA) and the potential influencing factors, so as to provide evidence for prevention programs of CSA. Methods: Part of the data from "2016-2020 Child Injury Prevention Project" was used to analyze responses to CSA among parents of children younger than 3rd grade in primary school by chi square test and Logistic regression analysis. Results: A total of 4 072 parents were included in the analysis. Among them, 86.8% of parents chose "to solve problems together", 51.0% of parents taking children to a "psychologist", 4.9% of parents "scolding children for being too careless", 2.9% of parents "letting child not disclose abuse" and 6.5% of parents chose "other" coping methods. Parents with foreign nationality [OR(95%CI)=2.58(1.25-5.15)] and lower education level (OR=0.26-0.64) tend to "blame" their children. Mothers [(OR(95%CI)=0.54(0.33-0.90)], higher parental education level (OR=0.27-0.72) were more reluctant to encourage their children to keep quiet. Mothers [OR(95%CI)=1.73(1.32-2.27)], older children (OR=1.33-1.78) and parents with higher education level (OR=1.65-2.99) tend to "accompany". Parents aged 30 or more, and from high school/technical school/technical secondary school tend to take their children to see a "psychologist" [OR(95%CI)=1.39(1.14-1.71), 1.79(1.26-2.53)]. Conclusion Parents universally pay attention to the physical and mental health of children after CSA, but some parents still take negative coping methods, e.g. "blame" and "not disclose". Parenting educational level, duration of parent-child communication and age of children are primary factors associated with parental responses to child sexual assault. This study suggests that prevention secondary injury following child sexual assault should be farther strengthened, while fully considering the characteristics of the educated objects.

At present, nasal abnormalities is often classified from different perspectives, such as the alar-columella relationship, nasal base width, and the condition of alar hyperplasia. However, due to the impact of race and region, different people may be applied to different classification methods, resulting in different clinical diagnosis and treatments. So far, there is no unified standard for alar deformity classification to guide clinical treatment. In alar-columella relationship, the retracted ala and the hanging columella, hanging ala and retracted columella are easily confused. According to the classification of nasal base width, it is easy to confuse the alar flare with wide alar base. Therefore, the accurate preoperative evaluation of the nasal ala and the selection of appropriate clinical treatments for different abnormalities are beneficial for surgeons to achieve perfect rhinoplasty results.

【Objective】 To investigate the impact of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) functional epitope mismatch (EM) on the efficacy of platelet transfusion in patients with hematological diseases. 【Methods】 HLA genotyping was performed on platelet donors and patients with hematological diseases who applied for platelet serological cross-matching and HLA antigen matching from June 2021 to June 2023 by PCR-SBT method. HLA platelet matching was based on the principle of CREG to select donors for patients. HLA Matchmaker 4.0 software was used to analyze donor-recipient HLA EM information. The expression level and gene distribution of related HLA functional epitope (Eplet) were searched from the international HLA Epitope registry website (www.Epregistry.com.br). Retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical platelet transfusion data to evaluate the impact of HLA EM on platelet transfusion effectiveness. 【Results】 Platelet transfusion efficacy showed no correlation with gender and age, but it was associated with platelet matching strategy. When the total number of HLA EMs was less than 20, a lower total number of donor-recipient HLA EMs resulted in higher platelet transfusion efficiency (χ²=19.311, P=0.001) and higher average value of 24 h corrected count increment (CCI)(F=7.737, P<0.001). The total number of donor-recipient HLA EMs had negative correlation with actual 24 h CCI (Rho=-0.322, P<0.001). Further statistical analysis revealed that 17 Eplets were related to the effectiveness of platelet transfusion. The locus distribution of 17 Eplets might be unique to HLA-A (17.6%) or -B (64.7%) or shared between HLA-A and -B (17.6%), and its expression may be high (58.8%) or intermediate (41.2%). 【Conclusion】 The total number of donor-recipient HLA EMs is a crucial factor influencing platelet transfusion effectiveness, and several HLA Eplets associated with this effectiveness have been identified.

Ulcerative colitis(UC)is characterized by chronic relapsing intestinal inflammation.Currently,there is no effective treatment for the disease.According to our preliminary data,1,8-cineole,which is the main active compound of Amomum compactum Sol.ex Maton volatile oil and an effective drug for the treat-ment of pneumonia,showed remarkable anti-inflammatory effects on colitis pathogenesis.However,its mechanism of action and direct targets remain unclear.This study investigated the direct targets and mechanism through which 1,8-cineole exerts its anti-inflammatory effects using a dextran sulfate so-dium salt-induced colitis mouse model.The effects of 1,8-cineole on macrophage polarization were investigated using activated bone marrow-derived macrophages and RAW264.7 cells.In addition,1,8-cineole targets were revealed by drug affinity responsive target stability,thermal shift assay,cellular thermal shift assay,and heat shock protein 90(HSP90)adenosine triphosphatases(ATPase)activity assays.The results showed that 1,8-cineole exhibited powerful anti-inflammatory properties in vitro and in vivo by inhibiting the macrophage M1 polarization and protecting intestinal barrier function.Mech-anistically,1,8-cineole directly interacted with HSP90 and decreased its ATPase activity,also inhibited nucleotide-binding and oligomerization domain-,leucine rich repeat-,and pyrin domain-containing 3(NLRP3)binding to HSP90 and suppressor of G-two allele of SKP1(SGT1)and suppressed NLRP3 inflammasome activation in macrophages.These results demonstrated that 1,8-cineole is a potential drug candidate for UC treatment.
