Objective: To investigate the diagnostic value and clinical significance of trans-splenic portal scintigraphy in cirrhotic portal hypertension and compensatory circulation. Methods: Transsplenic portal scintigraphy, ultrasound, and gastroscopy were performed on 50 patients with cirrhotic portal hypertension and on 10 controls. According to the Child-Pugh classification, 15 patients with cirrhosis were Child A, 19 cases were Child B, and 16 cases were Child C. Results: In the control group, the splenoportal vein was shaped like the letter S, and the portosystemic shunt index was 0.19?0.07. Portal hypertension portosystemic shunts were of 3 types: intrahepatic (13 patients; index, 0.52?0.19), compensatory(31 patients; index, 0.64?0.28)and completely extrahepatic (6 patients; index, 0.91?0.03). Collateral vessels were uphill, downhill, or complex. The portosystemic shunt index increased as cirrhosis and esophageal varices increased. There was statistical significance among groups(P

ObjectiveTo explore the screening and therapeutic efficacy of primary carnitine deficiency (PCD) in newborns and mothers.Methods164245 newborns and suspected mothers were investigated for PCD by tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS).The overall epidemiology,prognosis,and follow-up of the screening program were investigated.ResultsTotally 55 suspected cases were identified at the primary screening stage.Four newborns and three mothers were confirmed as cases of PCD.The incidence rate of newborns was 1 ∶ 40076.All the patients showed normal growth and development during the follow-up.Blood free carnitine level was raised in all three mothers after treatment.ConclusionsScreening for PCD with MS/MS in newborns may represent a valuable procedure in preventive medicine by enabling early diagnosis and treatment before the onset of symptoms.This protocol is also highly efficient and applicable in diagnosis of mothers with PCD.

Objective To study the relationship between the expression of eostimulating factor B7-H4 in patients with primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) and the pathogenesis of PBC. Methods The expression of B7-H4 mRNA on peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) of 65 patients with PBC was tested by real-time PCR. Serum levels of IL-2 were assayed by ELISA. CD4+, CD8+ T lymphocytes expression level and B7-H4 expression rate before and after activation were measured by three-color flow cytometry (FCM). Re-sults (1) Expression of B7-H4 mRNA and BT-H4 percentage in PBC group were significantly lower than that in none-PBC group and healthy controls(P<0.01);(2)After 72 h activation, the percentage of CD4+, CD8+, and CD4+ CD8+T lymphoeytes and serum levels of IL-2 decreased (P<0.05), and the percentage of CD4+, CD4+ CD8+T lymphocytes and serum levels of IL-2 were significantly higher than that of none-PBC group and healthy controls(P<0.01);(3)Levels of alanine aminotransferase(ALT), aspartate amin-otransferase(AST), alkaline phosphatase(ALP) and γ-glutamyl transpeptidase(GGT) of patients with posi-tive anti-mitochondrial antibody(AMA)-M2 rose. There was no significant difference of B7-H4 expressions on T cells between patients either with or without AMA-M2 antibody. Conclusion The costimulating factor B7-H4 can express on T lymphocytes which is activated by phytohemagglatinin(PHA) aad plays a negative role on T cells responses.

Objective To investigate the association of TGF-β receptor typeⅡ(TβRⅡ)mRNA with lupus nephritis (LN) and disease activity by testing its expression levelin peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs).Methotis Forty-four patients with LN were included in this study.They were all had active LN.Twepty-eight LN patients were taking glueocorticoids and/or immunosuppressive agents and sixteen had never taken steroids or immunosuppressive agents.The expression levels of T13R H mRNA were semi-quantitativelydetermined by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).Resuits The expression levels of TβRⅡ mRNA in PBMCs from LN patients(1.7±1.0)were lower than those of non-lupus nephritis(4.0±3.1) and healthy subiects(4.1±2.5),(P<0.01).The difference of the expression levels between patients who took and had never taken glucocorticoids and/or immunosuppressive drugs was significantly statistically(P<0.05).The expression levels of TβRⅡ mRNA in PBMCs of patients with LN were correlated significantly with the systemic lupus erythematosus disease activity index (SLEDAI)scores(r-0.309.P<0.05),titers of anti-dsDNA antibody(r=-0.401,P<0.01)and serum complement C3 level(r=0.621,P<0.01).Conclusion This study suggests that TβRⅡ may be involved in the development of LN,and the TβRⅡ mRNA expression levels in PBMCs from patients with SLE are significantly correlated with LN activity.Glucocortieoids or immunosuppressive drugs can increase the expression levels of TβRⅡ mRNA and ameliorate renal damage.

BACKGROUND:There is a high morbidity after spinal cord injury, and the therapeutic strategy is limited to early surgical intervention, medication and post-treatment exercise that only can improve the motor function slightly. However, there is no effective cure method. OBJECTIVE:To study the effect of partition-type spinal cord catheter combined with bone marrow stromal stem cels on T8 spinal cord transection damage in rats. METHODS:Fifty rats were randomized into five groups (n=10 per group): group I, T8 spinal cord transection (5 mm) was made in rats with no treatment; group II, the partition-type tube was inserted into the injured site after modeling; group III, partition-type tube combined with bone marrow stromal stem cels was implanted into the injured site after modeling; group IV, partition-type tube combined with polyglycolic acid fibers was implanted into the injured site after modeling; group V, partition-type tube combined with bone marrow stromal stem cels and polyglycolic acid fibers was implanted into the injured site after modeling. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 2 and 12 weeks postoperatively, Basso, Beattie and Bresnahan scores were significantly higher in the groups III and IV than the groups I, II, IV (P < 0.05). At 12 weeks postoperatively, the latency of motor evoked potential below the injury plane was significantly decreased in group V compared with groups I, II, III, IV (P < 0.05). Immunohistochemical results displayed that in the groups III and V, regenerated nerve fibers grew positively and arranged orderly among the tubes, and there was no obvious winding phenomenon. Under transmission electron microscopy, a certain number of myelinated nerve fibers were found as bridges among groups. These findings indicate that the partition-type chitosan tube combined with bone marrow stromal stem cels has a good connection with the injured spinal cord a good connection to restore part of electrophysiological properties, accelerate the axon regeneration, recover the motor function, thereby providing a new direction for the treatment of spinal cord injury.

To explore the status of the job satisfaction of the authorized and contract staff in a university affiliated hospital in the dilution situation of the hospital staffing management, and to discuss the key factors and reasons affecting the satisfaction difference. The questionnaire was developed based on Minnesota Satisfaction short form with extra items covering “the comprehensive satisfaction evaluation”. According to the hospital population of staff, the cluster random sampling method was used, and survey was conducted on the spot. Both authorized staff and the contract staff showed high degree of satisfaction. But the contract staff showed higher degree of satisfaction of leadership and their own responsibility sense than the authorized staff. The contract female staff showed higher degree of overall satisfaction than the authorized female staff. The discussion based on the results showed that new human resource management mode, new mechanism of flexible management of staff, targeted staff with targeted management.

Objective To assess the diagnostic value of various preoperative imaging examinations for the point of the lateral femoral circumflex artery perforators through the deep fascia,in order to provide reasonable evidence for the design of location and protocol of anterolateral thigh perforator flap.Mehtods From September,2013 to December,2013,23 patients (including 1 patient with bilateral anterolateral thigh perforator flap) preparing anterolateral flap surgery were randomly divided into 4 groups(every group was 6 side).The patients in different groups were using different imaging techniques respectively,such as handheld doppler (HHD),Color doppler sonography (CDS),MDCT angiography (MDCTA),CDS and MDCTA united image location technology.The flap sizes varied from 8 cm × 5 cm to 28 cm × 12 cm.Moreover the coincidence rate between preoperative and intraoperative location of the perforator vessel was evaluated.Results Ali flaps were survived after the operation.The donor site were primarily closed while partial skin grafting was performed in 8 cases.The appearance and functional resuhs were satisfactory with following up for 3 to 9 months.The rates of coincidence between the preoperative and intraoperative location of perforating branches were HHD 61.53％,CDS 87.50％,MDCTA 85.71％,CDS and MDCTA united image location technology 93.33％ respectively.The HHD group showed significant decrease compared with the other groups (x2 =7.92,P ＜ 0.01; x2 =6.15,P ＜ 0.05; x2 =12.54,P ＜ 0.01,respectively).The CDS group had no statistically difference with the MDCTA group (P ＞ 0.05).The united CDS and MDCTA group showed significant increase compared with the other groups (x2 =4.22,P ＜ 0.05; x2 =3.94,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion CDS and MDCTA united image location technology are more accurate for perforator preoperative location in auterolateral thigh flap,and should be widely used.

Objective To discuss the effects of prophylactic chemotherapy on the outcomes and prognosis of invasive mole patients.Methods One hundred and fifteen invasive mole (IM) patients older than 40 years were registered in Peking Union Medical Collage Hospital.Eleven of them were treated with prophylactic chemotherapy before diagnosed as IM prophylactic chemotherapy group,while the other 104 cases received therapeutic chemotherapy after diagnosed as IM (non-prophylactic chemotherapy group).The general clinical data (including age,clinical stage,risk factor score),treatment,outcomes and relapse of patients were retrospectively compared between two groups.Results (1) The age of prophylactic chemotherapy group and non-prophylactic chemotherapy group were (47±5) versus (46±4) years old.Ratio of clinical stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ were 3/11 versus 29.8％ (31/104),clinical stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ were 8/11 versus 70.2％ (73/104).Ratio of risk factor score 0-6 were 11/11 versus 84.6％ (88/104),risk factor score ＞6 were 0 versus 15.4％(16/104).There were no significant statistical differences between two groups in age,clinical stage or risk factor score (all P＞0.05).(2) Treatment:the total chemotherapy courses between prophylactic chemotherapy group and non-prophylactic chemotherapy group (median 7 versus 5) were significantly different (Z=3.071,P=0.002).There were no significant statistical differences between two groups in the chemotherapy courses until negative conversion of β-hCG,consolidation chemotherapy courses,total therapeutic chemotherapy courses or ratio of hysterectomy (all P＞0.05).(3) Outcomes and relapse:between the prophylactic chemotherapy group and the non-prophylactic chemotherapy group,the complete remission rate were 11/11 versus 98.1％(102/104),the relapse rate were 0 versus 1.0％(1/102).There were no significant difference between the two groups in outcomes or relapse rate (P＞0.05).Conclusions Prophylactic chemotherapy does not substantially benefit the IM patients older than 40 years.Prophylactic chemotherapy may not significantly improve patients' prognosis,in which increased sample size is required in further study.
