Objective To investigate the clinical effect of sodium hyaluronate combined with glucocorticoid on the treatment of periarthritis of shoulder.Methods106 patients in department of orthopedics, the second hospital of Ningbo with periarthritis of shoulder were randomly divided into 2 groups (n=53).The control group were treated with anti-inflammatory and analgesic treatment, at this basis, the study group were treated with sodium hyaluronate combined with Glucocorticoid.5 weeks for a course of treatment.Levels of serum inflammation, laboratory-related indicators were compared.ResultsCompared with before treatment, shoulder joint activity in the two groups increased, VAS score decreased, the scores of strength of shoulder joint, range of motion and daily activities increased, levels of serum IL-6, IL-10, TNF-α decreased(P<0.05).Compared with the control group, scores of activity in the study group were higher, VAS scores were lower, scores of strength of shoulder joint, range of motion and daily activities were higher, levels of serum IL-6, IL-10, TNF-α were lower(P<0.05).The effective rate in the control group(73.59%) was lower than the study group(90.57%), but there was no statistical difference.ConclusionThe effect is accurate which sodium hyaluronate combined with glucocorticoid was used in the treatment of periarthritis of shoulder, and it can reduce the inflammation index and improve the joint activity.

Objective To observe the alteration of skin complexion after UVA and UVB exposure.Methods The back skin of ten females with skin type Ⅲ was subjected to single exposure to solar-simulated UVA of double minimal persistent pigment darkening (MPPD) or UVB of double minimal erythema dose (MED). Skin reflectance was assessed with clinical grading, spectcolometer and Mexameter MX 18 before irra-diation, 6 hours, 1, 7 and 14 days after the irradiation. Results After UVB irradiation, a~* value and erythema index (EI) abruptly increased at 6 hours and peaked on day 2; L~* value sharply declined on day 1; ITA° markedly decreased on day 7; melanin index (MI) declined within the first 2 days, but notably increased on day 7. After UVA irradiation, a~* and El value experienced no apparent changes; L~* value obviously declined at 6 hours; ITA° reached its lowest value on day 14; MI increased only on day 1. Conclusions There is a significant difference in the kinetics and extent of skin complexion changes after UVA and UVB irradiation. EI and a~* value are sensitive and accurate indices for evaluating sunburn, and MI and ITA ° for analyzing tanning.

Objective To explore differences in phototest and photopatch test results, and in skin color?related parameters between healthy subjects and patients with chronic actinic dermatitis (CAD), and to examine their relationship with the melanocortin?1 receptor gene(MC1R)Arg163Gln variant. Methods Phototests were performed by using a sun simulator SUN1000, and skin color was analyzed by using Hexameter MX18 in 25 patients with CAD and 25 healthy subjects. The MC1R genotype at position?163 was determined by PCR. Photopatch tests were performed on 25 patients with CAD and 5 healthy subjects using a standard series of photoallergens(RuiMin)and an ultraviolet (UV)phototherapy equipment, SS?03A. Results Regarding phototest results, both UVA?minimal persistent pigment darkening dose(MPPD)and UVB?minimal erythema dose(MED)were significantly lower in CAD patients compared with healthy controls (both P < 0.05), with the reduction in UVB?MED being particularly notable. Sixteen patients (64%)in the CAD group had positive photopatch reactions, including 13(52%)cases of photoallergy. Skin color?related parameters were measured at four sites. Skin hemoglobin levels on the cheek, forehead, back of hands, inner upper arms were all significantly higher in CAD patients than in healthy controls(all P<0.05). However, skin melanin levels on the cheek, forehead and inner upper arms were similar between the two groups, and only those on the back of hands were significantly higher in CAD patients than in controls(P<0.01). Skin melanin and hemoglobin levels were significantly higher in exposed than in unexposed (inner upper arms) areas in CAD patients (all P < 0.05). The frequency of the CGA genotype at position?163 in the MC1R gene was similar between CAD patients and controls(P>0.05), but that of the CAA genotype differed significantly between the two groups(P<0.01). UVA?MPPD and UVB?MED were both significantly lower in CAD patients with the CAA genotype at position?163 in the MC1R gene than in those without the genotype(P=0.055, 0.325, respectively). Conclusions Skin photobiological testing plays a critical role in the diagnosis of CAD. Further studies are needed to clarify the role of the CAA genotype at position?163 in the MC1R gene in the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of CAD.

Objective To evaluate skin barrier function in patients with atopic dermatitis (AD),and to assess its relationship with claudin-1 expression.Methods Totally,11 patients with AD and 11 healthy human controls were recruited in this study.A Tewameter TM210 was used to measure transepidermal water loss (TEWL) value,and high-frequency ultrasound to determine epidermal thickness and density,in lesional and non-lesional skin of the patients and normal skin of the healthy controls.A double-antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was performed to determine the serum level of free claudin-1 in these subjects.One-way analysis of variance and t test were carried out to compare these parameters in different groups,and Pearson's correlation analysis to estimate the relationship between different parameters.Results The TEWL value was significantly higher in lesional skin than in nonlesional skin of patients with AD and normal skin of the healthy controls ((36.9 ± 34.2) vs.(9.1 ± 6.0) and (4.4 ± 3.1) g·m-2·h-1,both P＜ 0.05).The epidermal thickness in AD lesions was (0.23 ± 0.04) mm,significantly higher than that in nonlesional skin ((0.18 ± 0.03) mm,P ＜ 0.01) and normal control skin ((0.18 ± 0.02) mm,P ＜ 0.01).Ultrasound images revealed a characteristic subepidermal low echo-genic band in the AD lesions.The patients with AD showed a significantly lower serum level of claudin-1 compared with the healthy controls ((0.80 ± 0.88) vs.(1.73 ± 1.85) μg/L,P ＜ 0.05).Moreover,the serum level of claudin-1 was negatively correlated with epidermal thickness (r =-0.61,P ＜ 0.01),but positively correlated with the inverse of TEWL (1/TEWL,r =0.44,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The impaired skin barrier function,which may be evaluated by TEWL,1/TEWL and epidermal thickness,is associated with the expression of claudin-1 in patients with AD.

ObjectiveTo investigate the correlation between recent cardiac events and the score of myocardial infarction by delayed-enhancement MRI (DE-MRI).Methods DE-MRI was performed in 40 subjects with coronary artery disease.The score of myocardial infarction by DE-MRI,the ejection fraction (EF) by echocardiography,recent cardiac events (the number of weekly nitroglycerin,the number of weekly angina episodes and the onset number of heart failure in the last year),6-minute walking distance,as well as the Seattle angina questionnaire (SAQ) score were assessed.The Spearman correlation test and Kruskal-Wallis test,Mann-Whitney test were used for the statistics.ResultsThere were negative correlation between the myocardial infarction score by DE-MRI (median 12,inter-quartile range:6.0-19.8) and the 6-minute walking distance(378.93 ± 100.53 ),SAQ score (74.55 ± 11.40 ) (r was 0.66 and 0.54,P ＜0.05).The myocardial infarction score by DE-MRI was strongly correlated with the number of weekly nitroglycerin ( median 1 ; inter-quartile range:0-2.8),the number of weekly angina episodes ( median 3,inter-quartile range:1-6.5 ) and the onset number of heart failure in the last year ( median 0,inter-quartile range:0-2) (r was 0.87,0.85 and 0.89,P ＜0.05).EF [(49.2 ± 13.72)％] was negative correlation with the number of weekly nitroglycerin,the number of weekly angina episodes and the onset number of heart failure in the last year (r were 0.67,0.73 and 0.73,P ＜0.05).ConclusionDE-MRI can be used for evaluation and prediction of future cardiac events.

Objective:To study the effect of Ginkgo biloba extract (EGb761) on metabolism of aflatoxin B_1(AFB_1) in Wistar rats. Methods:Seventy one Wistar rats were divided into three groups at random: group A (AFB_1 group), group B (AFB_1+EGb761 group), and group C (control group). The rats in groups A and B were given AFB_1(intraperitoneal injection, 100-200 μg/ kg body weight, 1-3 times/week). The rats in group B were fed the food containing EGb761 while the rats in groups A and C were given normal food. Blood samples were collected and liver biopsy was performed on the 14th, 28th and 42nd week. All the rats were sacrificed at the 64th week. The incidence of hepatoma was observed. The hepatic phase Ⅰ drug-metabolizing enzyme CYP450 and phase Ⅱ enzyme GST were detected by spectrometry. The serum AFB_1-lysine adduct was determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The expression of 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine(8-OHdG) was measured by immunohistochemistry. Results:The incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in group B was significantly lower than that in group A (26.92% vs 76.00%,P<0.001). No hepatocellular carcinoma developed in group C. EGb761 had no effects on the activities of CYP450 and GST in rat liver tissues. The level of AFB_1-lysine adduct reached the peak (4 356.01 pg/mg albumin) at the 14th week in group A. EGb761 significantly inhibited the formation of AFB_1-lysine adducts in serum by 13.07% at the 14th week (P＝0.033), and 73.63% at the 42nd week (P＝0.002). The expression of 8-OHdG protein in rat liver tissues in group B was significantly lower than that in group A at the 28th, 42nd, and 64th week (P<0.05). Conclusion:The main mechanism underlying the effect of EGb761 in blocking hepatogenesis induced by AFB_1 may not be fully related with its influence on the activity of liver phase Ⅰ and phase Ⅱ metabolizing enzymes. EGb761 inhibites the production of AFB_1-lysine addcuts, decreases the expression of 8-OHdG protein, and finally alleviates the DNA oxidative injury, which may be one of the mechanisms for the effects of EGb761 in inhibiting or delaying hepatogenesis induced by AFB_1.

Objective To explore the impact of different hemoglobin on postoperative cognitive functions in female patients underwent laparoscopic surgery. Methods 215 female patients who were underwent laparoscopic total hysterectomy or laparoscopic myomectomy from January 2016 to December 2016 in our hospital were selected. The patients were divided into 3 groups according to their hemoglobin:Group N with normal hemoglobin ,Group A with hemoglobin concentration of 9 ~ 11 g/L ,and Group B with hemoglobin concentration of 6 ~ 9 g/L. Same anesthesia and recovery plan were performed in all patients. Basic and operative information were recorded. The score of MoCA on the day before surgry ,the day after surgry ,3 days after surgry and 30 days after surgry were recorded. Blood samples were collected on the day before surgry and the day after surgry for the determina-tion of serum S-100β protein and IL-6 concentrations. Results No significant difference was found in basic and operative information among three groups. The recovery time was much longer in Group B than that in Group N. No difference were found among three group in the score of MoCA on the day before surgry and 30 days after surgry ,while the score in the day after surgry and 3 days after surgry were lower in Group B com-pared with Group N. The incidence of POCD were higher in Group B compared with Group N. Compared with the day before surgry ,the concentration of serum S-100β protein and IL-6 were much higher. And compared with Group N ,the concentration of serum S-100β protein was higher in Group A and B in the day after surgry , while IL-6 was higher in Group B. The concentration of serum S-100βprotein and IL-6 were much higher in Group B compared with Group A in the day after surgry. Conclusion Female patients with hemoglobin concen-tration of 6 ~ 9 g/L are susceptible to POCD ,which might be contributed by operative central nerve system damage induced by excessive inflammation.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the uses of antibacterials,the characteristics of bacterial distribution and the drug resistance and provide a foundation for reasonable application of antibacterials.METHODS Germs isolation and cultivation were carried out according to National Clinical Testing Operation Procedures(2nd edition).Germs definition and resistance test were carried out by using VITEK 2 Compact microbiological assay system.Statistical analysis was processed by using WHONET 5.4.RESULTS Totally 7815 strains of bacteria were isolated from clinical samples,most of which were Gram-negatives(G-)(58.0%,56.3% and 59.5%,respectively in the 3 years).The tendency of Gram-positives(G+) didnot charee obviously(about 20%).Theresistance were increasing.The resistance rate of Staphylococcus aureus was more than 70.0 % to the most antibacterials.Up to now,there was no vancomycin-resistant isolate.CONCLUSIONS We should use antibacterials reasonably and efficiently to delay and control drug resistance,according to the susceptibility test.

Objective To investigate clinical features of lower motor neuron lesion (LMNL) caused by the single level lower thoracic disc protrusion (LTDP),and to observe clinical outcomes of surgical treatment.Methods Between January 1997 and December 2009,17 patients with LMNL caused by single level LTDP underwent en bloc resection of the superior articular process,Cave-in 360° circumferential decompression and internal fixation in our hospital.MRI and CT scans were taken to confirm lesion levels:T10-11 in 4 patients of whom 3 had patellar clonus and ankle clonus,T11-12 in 5 patients of whom 4 had ankle clonus,and T12L1 in 8 patients who only had positive Babinski sign.The neurologic status was assessed using the Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) scoring system.The muscle strength of the tibialis anterior was assessed using the Manual Muscle Test (MMT).Sagittal Cobb angle and cross-sectional area of the dural sac at the level of maximal compression in MRI were also observed.Results All patients were followed up for 22 to 76 months (average,48.6 months).The mean JOA score increased from preoperative 5.88±1.11 to 9.53±0.94 at final follow-up (t=16.143,P＜0.05).The muscle strength of the tibialis anterior recovered to more than grade 4 in all patients.Postoperative Cobb angle was unchanged compared with that before operation.MRI indicated that the cross-sectional area of the dural sac at the level of maximum compression increased from preoperative 35.8±7.3 mm2 to postoperative 132.9±6.5 mm2 (t=70.78,P＜0.05).Conclusion LMNL can be caused by LTDP.The eu bloc resection of the superior articular process,Cave-in 360° circumferential decompression and internal fixation can provide a satisfactory decompression effect and marked recovery of neurological function.
