It elaborates the importance of designing a patient-centered hospital environment, and presents the concept of such a design. The authors hold that such a concept is mostly composed of systematic, people-oriented, informationized and variability designs, and describe the design trends in contemporary hospitals. It is also pointed out that patient-centered principle should be dominant in building a contemporary hospital, as the guideline and development trend, as a satisfactory hospital environment makes a hospital more competitive.

Objective To make a survey on common cosmetic allergens, and to provide epidemiological data and clinical evidence for cosmetic allergy. Methods Patch test was performed by using 49cosmetic allergens from a European cosmetic series and 5 Chinese standard screening allergens on 89patients with suspected cosmetic allergic contact dermatitis. Test results were determined according to the International Contact Dermatitis Research Group (ICDRG) recommendation. Results Of the 89 patients, 61(68.5%) showed positive reactions to one or more cosmetic allergens. The most common allergens were fragrances (33.7%), followed by preservatives (30.3%), para-phenylenediamine (25.8%) and amerchol L 101(10.1%). Conclusion Fragrances, preservatives, para-phenylenediamine and amerchol L 101 are dominant causative allergens in patients with cosmetic allergic contact dermatitis.

Objective To explore the relationship between levels of serum 25-(OH) D3 and changes in Th1/Th2 cell balance in infants with recurrent wheezing.Methods Sixty cases of infants with recurrent wheezing were involved and 60 cases of healthy children were selected as controls.Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the levels of serum 25-(OH) D3 and double-antibody sandwich (ABC-ELISA) was used to detect the serum levels of interferon-γ(IFN-γ),interleukin (IL)-4,IL-13,and then the relationship between the levels of serum 25-(OH) D3 and changes in Th1/Th2 balance in infants with recurrent wheezing were explored.Results Serum 25-(OH) D3 levels decreased significantly in the infants with recurrent wheezing group compared with those of the healthy control group [(18.24 ± 5.64) μg/L vs (37.85 ± 7.78) μg/L] (t =15.810,P =0.000).Serum IFN-γ levels decreased significantly in the infants with recurrent wheezing group compared with those of the healthy control group [(11.20 ± 2.08) ng/L vs (20.68 ± 3.87) ng/L] (t =16.700,P =0.000).In contrast,serum IL-4,IL-13 levels increased significantly in the infants with recurrent wheezing group compared with those of the healthy control group[IL-4:(28.61 ±6.44) ng/L vs (22.14±5.29) ng/L;IL-13:(20.02±4.83) ng/L vs (17.72± 4.06) ng/L] (t =6.201,P =0.000 ; t =2.829,P =0.006).Th1/Th2 in the infants with recurrent wheezing group were lower than that those of the healthy control group,and there was statistically significant difference between two groups(0.41 ± 0.12 vs 1.00 ± 0.36) (t =11.796,P =0.000).Serum 25-(OH) D3 levels were negatively correlated with Th1/Th2 in the infants with recurrent wheezing(r =-0.649,P =0.000).There were no correlation between serum 25-(OH) D3 levels and Thl/Th2 in the healthy control group(r =-0.217,P =0.096).Conclusions Low serum 25-(OH) D3 may be the risk factor for recurrent wheezing in infants.Serum 25-(OH) D3 levels were negatively correlated with Th1/Th2 in the infants with recurrent wheezing group,which show that recurrent wheezing in the infants is closely related to allergic reaction.

Objective:To study the influence of triptolide on neutrophils asthmatic mice of WBC and EOS in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid.Methods:Using ovalbumin ( OVA) combined with lipopolysaccharide ( LPS) method to establish sensitized asthmatic mice,BALB/c mice were randomly divided into 32 neutrophilic asthma group ( NA group ) , neutrophil triptolide intervention group (TLN group),neutrophil dexamethasone group (DXN group) and normal control group (NC group),n=8,hemocytometer calculated for each group of mice bronchoalveolar lavage fluid ( BALF) of the total number of WBC and EOS;smears stained Switzerland View in-flammatory cell infiltration.Results: In bronchioalveolar lavage fluid, numbers and infiltrations of WBC and EOS were significantly decreased in the DXN,TLN group than those in the NA group(P<0.05);but were significantly higher than the NC group (P<0.05), the DXN group above parameters were significantly higher than the TLN group ( all P<0.05 ) .Conclusion: Triptolide can reduce the total number of BALF WBC and EOS,inhibit lung WBC,EOS infiltration,ease neutrophilic airway inflammation.

Objective To investigate the expression of PTEN and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in esophageal carcinoma and the relationship between their expression.Methods The expression of PTEN and VEGF were detected using immunohistochemical S-P method.Results Among 80 cases of esophageal carcino- ma,31 showed positive staining of PTEN (38.75%),while all 20 case of normal mucosa showed positiva staimng of PTEN.The expression level of PTEN in highly differentiated squamous carcinoma was higher than that low differ- entiated squamous carcinoma.Also,the expression of PTEN was significantly correlated with lymph node metastasis (r=0.61,P<0.01)and differentiation(r=0.57.P<0.05).In 80 cases of esophageal carcinoma,57(70.13%) were of positive staining of VEGF,while in 20 of normal esophageal mucosa,only 3 showed positive staining of VEGF.The expression of VEGF was markedly correlated with infiltrative deepness(r=0.49,P<0.05)and lymph node metastasis(r=0.55,P<0.05)and differentiation(r=0.48,P<0.05).Conclusion Combined detection of PTEN and VEGF maybe helpful to evaluate prognosis and infiltrative capability of esophageal carcinoma,with sig- nificant importance to the prediction of the prognosis of esophageal carcinoam.

Objective To observe the changes and clinical significance of plasma heart fatty acid-binding protein(H-FABP)in children after open heart surgery. Methods Forty patients with congenital heart disease(CHD) who had undergone cardiac operation with cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB) were selected in this study,and were randomly divided into two groups (each 20 cases): cold crystalloid cardioplegia perfusion group (Ⅰ group) and cold blood cardioplegia perfusion group(Ⅱ group). Blood samples were taken to check the plasma H-FABP concentration before CPB and different time after CPB. Plasma H-FABP concentration was estimated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results The difference of plasma concentration of H-FABP before operation was not obvious between Ⅰ group and Ⅱ group. The plas-ma concentration of H-FABP intraoperation and different time after operation was higher than that before anesthesia induction obviously in two groups, and Ⅰ group rose more significantly [(50.13±3.98) μg/L vs (39.27±4.22) μg/L, P<0.01]. Conclusions H-FABP concentration after operation is higher than that before operation significantly. H-FABP can be used to judge myocardial damage earlier as a sensitive index, because plasma concentration of H-FABP increases significantly after open heart surgery, and its peak emerges early. Compared with cold crystalloid cardioplegia,the myocardial protection of cold blood cardioplegia is better.
