Objective To investigate the adjustment effect of microRNA-155 on CD4+CD25+ regulative T cell (Treg) in peripheral blood of sepsis patients,and to elucidate the role of miR-155 in the pathogenesis of sepsis.Methods A retrospective study was corducted.60 sepsis patients (mild n =20,moderate n=20,and severe n =20)from emergency room or intensive care unit (ICU) of the Fourth Hospital of Jiangsu University were enrolled.20 healthy volunteers were enrolled as controls.Real-time fluorescent quantitation polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the levels of miR-155 and Foxp3 mRNA expressions in peripheral blood.CD4+CD25+ Treg cells in peripheral blood were identified by flow cytometry.Peripheral interleukin-10 (IL-10) was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Results The expressions of miR-155,Treg,Foxp3 mRNA and the level of IL-10were higher in the patients with sepsis than those in healthy control group [Treg:(2.89 ± 1.13)% vs.(2.32 ± 0.91)%,t=10.540,P=0.002; miR-155:1.19 ±0.48 vs.0.80 ±0.33,t=8.605,P=0.006; Foxp3 mRNA:0.18 ±0.08 vs.0.13 ±0.03,t=6.862,P=0.008; IL-10 (ng/L):56.89 ± 17.28 vs.33.24 ± 11.93,t=12.742,P=0.001].These variables were elevated gradually with the elevation of acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ)score.The expressions of Treg,miR-155,Foxp3 mRNA and the level of IL-10 were (3.05 ± 1.21)%,1.36 ± 0.79,0.21 ±0.10,(62.82 ±21.38) ng/L in severe sepsis group; they were (2.86 ±0.88)%,1.25 ±0.56,0.17 ±0.08,(56.38 ± 19.65) ng/L in moderate group; they were (2.61 ± 0.87)%,0.94 ± 0.52,0.15 ± 0.05,(45.43 ± 14.40) ng/L in mild group.The values showed significant statistical difference among the mild,moderate and severe sepsis groups (all P<0.01).Above values were significandy higher in non-survival group than those in survival group [Treg:(3.46 ±1.53)% vs.(2.85 ± 1.03)%,t=14.250,P=0.005; miR-155:1.41 ±0.85 vs.1.16 ±0.76,t=11.875,P=0.006;Foxp3 mRNA:0.24 ± 0.11 vs.0.17 ± 0.09,t=8.795,P=0.001 ; IL-10 (ng/L):65.47 ± 23.58 vs.51.70 ± 16.86,t=16.313,P=0.001].The expression of miR-155 was positively correlated with the expression of CD4+CD25+ Treg and Foxp3 mRNA (r1=0.635,P1=0.007; r2=0.671,P2=0.005).Conclusion The result of this study suggest that miR-155 is involved in the cell proliferation regulation of CD4 +CD25 + Treg cells,and play some role in the immunological dissonance in sepsis.

For counterpart assistance in cooperation between two schools, it is the prerequisite to take counterpart assistance seriously at the height of building a well off society in an all round way; it is the most needed connecting point to construct the disciplines and teaching staff; it is the most substantial way to develop distant network teaching; it is the fundamental purpose to benefit the students. We will implement the essential of “Program of Counterpart Assistance for Higher Schools in Western China” proposed by Education Ministry in an all round way according to those “Four Aspects”, which have been proved to be the successful measures and developing tendency in the near future for counterpart assistance.

Objective:To investigate the prognostic value of absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) and neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), macrophage-lymphocyte ratio (MLR) and platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) before treatment in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC).Methods:A total of 175 patients newly-diagnosed with LACC admitted to Cancer Hospital affiliated to Xinjiang Medical University from August 2016 to October 2019 were enrolled in this study. Complete clinical data and ALC before treatment were recorded and NLR, MLR and PLR were calculated. Multivariate Cox′s proportional hazard regression model was used to analyze the prognostic factors of patients with LACC.Results:The progress-free survival (PFS) of LACC patients in the NLR reduction group (<3.34) and MLR reduction group (<0.315) were significantly higher than those in the NLR and MLR elevation groups (both P<0.05). The overall survival (OS) of LACC patients in the ALC elevation group (≥1.375 × 10 9/L) and the PLR reduction group (<160.575) were significantly higher compared with those in the ALC reduction group and PLR elevation group (both P<0.05). Univariate analysis showed that EQD 2Gy, the equivalent dose of HR-CTV, was an important prognostic factor of PFS in patients with LACC ( P=0.030). Multivariate Cox′s regression analysis demonstrated that FIGO staging ( HR=2.339, 95% CI 1.22-4.48, P=0.010) and concurrent chemoradiotherapy ( HR=0.213, 95% CI 0.11-0.43, P<0.001) were the independent predicators of PFS in patients with LACC. However, concurrent chemoradiotherapy ( HR=0.229, 95% CI 0.07-0.81, P=0.023) and MLR ( HR=4.933, 95% CI 1.39-17.54, P=0.014) before treatment were the independent predictors of OS in patients with LACC. Conclusions:Patients with locally advanced cervical cancer can benefit from concurrent chemoradiotherapy. HR-CTV EQD 2Gy is a critical prognostic factor of PFS in patients with LACC. The increase of MLR before treatment is an independent prognostic factor of OS in LACC patients.

Objective To discuss the clinical manifestations, diagnosis and treatment of solidpseudopapillary tumor of the pancreas (SPTP) in children. Methods Clinical data of 12 cases of SPTP admitted to Beijing Children's Hospital from Mar 2001 to Mar 2007 were collected and analyzed retrospectively. Result There were 7 females and 5 males among the patients. The mean age was 13.6 years. The main symptoms were abdominal pain and mass. Tumors located in the head in 4 cases, in the body and tail of the pancreas in 8 cases. Five cases underwent tumor enucleations, one case underwent body resection of the pancreas, two cases underwent Whippple's procedure including one recurrent case, five cases underwent body and tail resection of the pancreas plus splenectomy. All these 12 cases were followed up for 6 months to 6 years. One case lost follow-up 6 months after body and tail resection of the pancreas plus spleneetomy. Another one suffered from live tumor one year after operation and refused surgical exploration and lost follow-up. The other 10 cases were still alive. Conclusion SPTP are predominantly seen in adolescent females. For its benign clinical behavior and relatively good prognosis, surgical resection is the main choice of therapy.

OBJECTIVETo explore the effect of Qingfei Huoxue Recipe (QHR) combined azithromycin in treatment of intractable pediatric mycoplasma pneumonia.
METHODSTotally 124 intractable pediatric mycoplasma pneumonia patients at our hospital were recruited in this study, and randomly assigned to the treatment group and the control group, 62 in each group. Patients in the control group took azithromycin, while those in the treatment group additionally took QHR. All patients received omnibearing systematic nursing. Therapeutic efficacy, clinical indices (such as disappearance time of cough and rales, recovery time of body temperature) , and the incidence of adverse reactions were observed.
RESULTSAfter treatment the total effective rate was 91.94% (57/62 cases) in the treatment group and 77. 42% (48/62 cases) in the control group with statistical difference (P < 0.05). Compared with the control group, disappearance time of cough and rales, recovery time of body temperature were obviously shortened in the treatment group with statistical difference (P < 0.01). There was statistical difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups [3.23% (2/62 cases) vs 38.71% (24/62 cases) , P < 0.01].
CONCLUSIONIn clinical treatment for intractable pediatric mycoplasma pneumonia, Chinese medicine combined Western medicine plus scientific and systematic nursing showed more obvious advantages with significant efficacy, which was worth spreading.
