Viral encephalitis is a common pediatric infectious disease of the nervous system,the correct diagnosis, treatment and quality control has always been a challenge;America, British, European, Australia had issued guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of encephalitis in 2008-2015 ,which had important reference value for guiding clinicians dealing with viral encephalitis, this article integrated above guides and introduced the definition, classification, etiology, accessory examination, handling procedures and treatment of viral encephalitis in children, and the quality control program in the diagnosis and treatment of viral encephalitis in children was preliminarily discussed.

Objective To study the prognosis significance of intratumoral microvascular density(IMD)and the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)in malignant mesothelioma.Methods The data of 79 cases were reviewed of malignant mesothelioma confirmed by histology,immunohistochemistry and telectron microscope.CD34 and the expression of VEGF were detected by Immunohistochemical method.Results The age of the patients with malignant mesothelioma ranged from 11 to 79 years.The peak incidence of malignant mesothelioma was at the range of 40-50 years.The sex ratio of male to female was 1.78∶1.The survival period of the 79 cases was between 5 and 160 months with the medial survival of 23 months.According to histological structure,these cases were divided into epithelioid type(51 cases),sarcomatous type(20 cases)and mixed type(8 cases).For the VEGF positive expression,epithelioid type was 26 cases(50.98%),sarcomatous type was 13 cases(65.00)and mixed type was 5 cases(62.50%).Based on the mean IMD,the patients with malignant mesothelioma were divided into two groups.The survival time of the patients in the higher IMD group was significantly shorter than those in the lower IMD group.The analysis,on the relation of VEGF expression to IMD,as well as survival time and histological subtype,showed that VEGF expression was positively correlated to IMD(P=0.02,r=0.330 2).A significant difference existed between the survival of VEGF positive expression and negative expression(P0.05).Conclusion The results suggest that the prognosis of malignant mesothelioma probably related with IMD and VEGF expression.The higher index of IMD and the higher expression of VEGF might imply a worse prognosis.

Objective To investigate the expression of apoptosis regulating protein Bcl-2 and Bax,and the spontaneous apoptotic index(AI) in malignant mesothelioma,and their relationship to the survival time of patients.Methods Hematoxylin-eosin and immunohistochemical stainings were used for the sections of paraffin embedded tissues of 79 specimens of malignant mesothelioma.The terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling(TUNEL) was used to identify the apoptotic tumor cells.Results The age of the patients with malignant mesothelioma ranged from 11 to 79 years.The peak incidence of malignant mesothelioma was at the age of 40-50 years.The ratio of male to female was 1.47∶1.The survival time of the 79 cases was between 5 and 160 months,and the medial survival time was 23 months.According to histological pictures,these tumors were diagnosed as epithelioid type(51 cases),mixed type(8 cases) and sarcomatous type(20 cases).The tumor spontaneous apoptotic index(AI) was 0.14%-6.9%.The survival time of the patients with higher AI was significantly shorter than those with lower AI(P

The full length cDNA of ?1,3 galactosyltransferase gene was amplified by RT PCR from the peritoneal macrophages of BALB/c mice, which was subcloned into an eukaryotic expression vector pCDNA3 1/V5 HisA, and it was confirmed by DNA sequencing. The gastric cancer cell GC9811 was transfected with pCDNA3 1/V5 HisA?1,3GT by Lipofectamine TM 2000. The positive clone was screened by G418 for two months and confirmed by RT PCR. The gastric cells expressing Gal?(1,3)Gal epitope were detected by immuohistochemisty, and they were killed by naive antidoby specific to Gal?(1,3)Gal epitope. The results showed that the pCDNA3.1/V5 HisA?1,3GT was successfully constructed, and the transfected gastric cancer cells could highly express Gal?(1,3)Gal, which promoted lysis of the cancer cells by normal human serum.

Objective To explere the curative effects of L-carnitine on neonates with myocardial injury caused by asphyxia.Methods Ninety-one neonates with myocardial injury caused by asphyxia were randomly divided into L-carnitine treatment group(48 cases) and control group(43 cases).The patients in control group were received routine treatment;the patients in treatment group were given L-carnitine 0.1 g/(kg?d) on the basis of routine treatment for 10 days.Symptoms and physical signs were observed pretreatment and during the time of therapy.Before and after the treatment,serum MB isoenzyme of creatine kinase(CK-MB) and aspartate aminotransferase(AST) were mea-sured with immunosuppression and enzyme rate respectively,and serum albumin and prealbumin were detected with the method of bromcresol green chromatometry and immunoturbidimetry,respectively.Results Clinical effective rate of the treatment group(91.67%)was higher than that of control group(74.42%)(P

Objective To assess the effect of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) agonist on prostate epithelial cells in vitro.Methods The expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ(PPARγ) was studied by immunocytochemistry and immunofluorescence study.The RWPE-1 human prostate epithelial cell line was treated with PPARγ agonist rosiglitazone 100 μmol/L for 48 h.Analysis of apoptosis was performed by Caspase 3/7 activity assay.Mitochondria depolarization was measured by using the potential-sensitive color,JC-1.The expression of apoptosis-related proteins-Bax was investigated by immunohistochemistry.Results PPARγ mainly located in nucleus and perinucleus.RWPE-1 cell line treated with PPARγ agonist rosiglitazone showed higher Caspase 3/7 activity (10636±1032 RLU) than in control (5936±620 RLU),P＜0.01 and significantly upregulated Bax level (8250±694 vs.6017±563)than in control group,P＜0.01.In addition,mitochondrial membrane potential was depolarized in rosiglitazone treated cells.Conclusions PPARmay play important roles in the pathophysiology of BPH.The mechanism might be that PPARγ regulates cell apoptosis.It is suggested that the mitochondrial and Bax pathway might be involved in signaling PPARγ induced cell apoptosis.

Objective To investigate the effect on and mechansm by which prostaglandin E_1(PGE_1)protects liver functions after hepatectomy.Methods In this study,82 cases undergoing hepatectomy were divided randomly into control group with conventional therapy(41 cases),and PGE_1 treatment group(41 cases)treated with liposomal prostaglandin E_1 in addition to conventional therapy.Postoperative hospital days,urinary volume and abdominal drainage volume were observed.Pre-and postoperative liver functions were measured.Results Postoperative hospital days(median time 22 days)in PGE_1 treatment group were significantly shorter than those(median time 26 days)in control group.The postoperative levels of alanine transaminase,aspartic transaminase,total bilirubin and albumen in PGE_1 treatment group recovered to preoperative levels more quickly,than control group.Postoperative urinary volume in patients of PGE_1 treatment group was significantly more than that in control group,while abdominal drainage volume was markedly less,although there was no significant difference in prothrombin time between the two groups.Conclusion In patients undergoing hepatectomy,PGE_1 is very useful and safe to protect and improve hepatic function,decreasing the level of bilirubin,preventing ascites,formation shortening hospital days,without causing prolongation of prothrombin time remarkably.
