Objective To study the curative effect of inhaled corticosteroids in the treatment of infant with wheezy bronchitis through clinical symptom score. Methods One hundred infant of 4-23 months old with wheezy bronchitis treated were enrolled. According to the clinical symptom score, they were divided into light group (40 cases), moderate group (30 cases) and severe group (30 cases). Patients in each group were divided into atomization group and control group by random digits table. The clinical symptom score was compared between before treatment and after treatment. Results In light, moderate and severe group, the clinical symptom scores 24, 48, 72 h after treatment in atomization group were significantly lower than those in control group (P<0.01 or<0.05). In light, moderate and severe group, the clinical symptom scores in atomization group were significantly decreased 24 h after treatment (P <0.05). In light and moderate group, the clinical symptom scores in control group were significantly decreased 48 h after treatment (P < 0.05), and in severe group, the clinical symptom score in control group was significantly decreased 72 h after treatment (P < 0.05). Factorial design data of variance analysis showed that in the treatment method, there were significantly differences between atomization group and control group (F=66.393, 5.093 and 154.326;P<0.01), in the treatment time aspect, there were significantly differences between atomization group and control group (F = 263.836, 182.568 and 75.587;P<0.01), and in terms of treatment method × time, there were significantly differences between atomization group and control group (F = 13.956, 6.414 and 5.628; P < 0.01). Conclusions Inhaled corticosteroids therapy in light, moderate and severe infant wheezy bronchitis can obviously improve the clinical symptoms and reduce the clinical symptom scores.

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of Qingyi decoction (a preparation of Chinese herbal medicine) combined with DAR (combined use of dexamethasone,anisodamine and rhubarb) for the treatment of acute pancreatitis.Methods A total of 387 eligible patients met the criteria of acute pancreatitis were enrolled from January 2005 to April 2012 for prospective study.All patients,mild acute pancreatitis (MAP) or severe acute pancreatitis (SAP),were divided (random niumber) into four groups,namely conventional therapy (T),DAR therapy (DAR),Qingyi decoction therapy (Q) and Qingyi decoction combined with DAR therapy (Q + DAR).Outcome,fasting time,serum amylase,abdominal pain relief time,pancreatic or peri-pancreatic complications and average hospital-stay were analvzed with SPSS 13.0 statistic software.P ＜ 0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results None of MAP patients died.Of SAP patients,there was no difference in mortality among different groups (P ＞ 0.05).length of fasting time,tine elapsed for abdominal pain relief,time required for normalized serum amylase level and length of hospital stay in MAP patients were significantly shorter than those in SAP patients regardless of different therapies (P ＜ 0.05).Either patients of SAP or MAP treated with Q + DAR or DAR suffered shorter length of time than those treated with T or Q in respect of fasting,abdominal paiu relief,serum amylase level normalization and hospital stay (P ＜ 0.05).For SAP or MAP patients,there was no difference in abdominal pain relief time between receiving DAR and Q + DAR treatment (P ＞ 0.05),but the fasting time in Q + DAR was shorter than that in DAR (P ＜ 0.05).Patients with SAP were more likely to suffer pancreatic or per-pancreatic complications than those with MAP,but there was no difference for SAP or MAP with different treatments.Conclusions DAR or Q + DAR was an alternative to conventional treatment for MAP or SAP,and they were both superior to conventional treatment.And Q + DAR was more advantageous than DAR when fasting time,hospital-stay time and cost were considered.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of continuous blood purification in the treatment of severe acute pancreatitis.Methods:60 cases of severe acute pancreatitis were selected and divided into two groups.The control group (29 cases) was given routine treatment and the observation group (31 cases) was given continuous blood purification.The efficacy of continuous blood purification in the treatment of severe acute pancreatitis was evaluated by CRP,ALT,PaO2/FiO2,HCO3-,Scr,APACHE Ⅱ and MODS scores before and after treatment,complications and survival situation during treatment.Results:Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in the CRP,ALT,PaO2/FiO2,HCO3-,Scr levels between two groups (P＞0.05).After treatment,the CRP,ALT,HCO3-,Scr levels of two groups were decreased.These indexes of observation group were lower than those of the control group (P＜0.05).The PaO2/FiO2 of both groups were increased.The PaO2/FiO2 of observation group was high than that of the control group (P＜0.05).Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in the APACHE Ⅱ and MODS scores between two groups (P＞0.05).After treatment,the APACHE Ⅱ and MODS scores were lower than those before treatment.The APACHE Ⅱ and MODS scores in the observation group were lower than those of the control group (P＜0.05).During treatment,there was no statistical significance in the complications and survival rate between two groups (P＞0.05).Conclusion:Continuous blood purification had a good therapeutic effect on the severe acute pancreatitis.It could improve the organ function,reduce inflammation and regulate the balance of water and electrolyte with high safety.

Mammalian zona pellucida 3(ZP3) plays an important role in the induction of capacitating sperm acrosome reaction. In this study, we obtained the soluble mZP3 fusion protein and identified its immunoreactivity. mZP3 cDNA was cloned into plasmid pMAL-p2x, and the recombinant plasmid was transformed into Escherichia coli BL21. To get the soluble mZP3 fusion protein, we tried to optimize the expression conditions, including additives, IPTG concentrations, temperatures and induction duration. Then, Western blotting and ELISA were used to identify the immunoreactivity of the purified protein. Based on the optimization experiments, we concluded that the best soluble expression conditions for the mZP3 fusion protein involved incubation to an A600 of 0.6, addition of glucose to a final concentration of 0.02 mol/L, addition of IPTG to a final concentration of 0.6 mmol/L and then further incubation for 4 h at 25 degrees C. Western blotting and ELISA showed that the mZP3 fusion protein retained immunoreactivity. The fusion protein can be used as solubility antigens for developing the immunocontraception vaccines of mZP3 and detecting the immune effects of the vaccine.

Objective To investigate the correlation among fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO), child asthma control test(C-ACT) and lung function in asthmatic children and its clinical significance. Methods A total of 108 cases of asthmatic children in the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from June 2016 to September 2018 were recruited. Forty-seven cases (47.44%) were in acute onset, 40 cases(40.37%) were in chronic persistent, and 21 cases (21.19%) were in paracmasis. FeNO, lung function and C-ACT score were measured, and the correlation among them was analyzed. Results The level of FeNO in acute onset patients and chronic persistent patients had no significant difference:(44.18 ± 25.47)×10-9 vs. (46.98 ± 27.50)×10-9, P>0.05, but the level of FeNO in paracmasis patients was lower [(24.43 ± 10.71) × 10-9], compared with that of acute onset patients and chronic persistent patients, there were significant differences (P < 0.01). The scores of C-ACT in three groups had significant difference (P < 0.01), and there were significant differences between any two groups (P <0.01). The levels of forced expiratory peak flow rate measured value as a percentage of predicted value (FEV1%) and forced expiratory volume and forced vital capacity ratio in the first second (FEV1/FVC) in acute onset patients were significantly lower than those in chronic persistent patients and paracmasis patients (P <0.01), and there were no significant differences between chronic persistent patients and paracmasis patients (P＞0.05). Conclusions Compared with lung functions and C-ACT, FeNO is a good biomarker to evaluate the airway inflammation of asthmatic children.

Objective To investigate the susceptibility related sites to schizophrenia through whole genome analysis combined with bioinformatics analysis method.Methods The research was carried out by two stages.In the first stage,300 cases of schizophrenia and 300 healthy controls were enrolled,and 5ml pe-ripheral venous blood was drawn to extract genome DNA.After quality control and concentration adjustment by ultraviolet spectrophotometer,equal mass of DNA was mixed into DNA pooling for case group and control group respectively.Genome-Wide Human SNP Array 6.0 chips were used to detect the polymorphism of the SNP.Plink software was used to locate the differential SNP to genes.GSEA was used to analyze the gene to pathway.Ten loci with the smallest P value of screened pathway were chosen as investigated subjects.In the second stage,240 schizophrenias and 200 healthy controls were collected to gain the genome DNA to verity the genotype of the 10 loci.Results Many single nucleotide polymorphism loci which P<9.2×10-8were found in GWAS.The GSEA pathway analysis showed that the axon guidance pathway was significantly related to the incidence of schizophrenia.The distribution of rs4632195 genotypes involved the distribution of among 10 loci(χ2=11.484,P=0.003)and alleles(χ2=8.824,P=0.009)were statistically significant,and T al-lele was susceptibility genes of schizophrenia(OR=1.537,95%CI:1.157-2.203).Conclusion rs4632195 of DCC gene in the axon guidance pathway is associated with schizophrenia,and the T allele is associated with susceptibility to schizophrenia.

Objective To explore the changes of whole brain white matter ( WM) structural net-work topological property in patients with schizophrenia (SP) and the associations between WM networks to-pological efficiency and clinical variables in patients. Methods Deterministic tractography was used to con-struct the WM networks of 59 patients with SP ( patients group) and 41 age-, handedness-, and gender-matched healthy controls (HCs),and graph theoretical methods were applied to investigate abnormalities in the global and nodal properties of the WM network in these patients. Partial correlation analysis was used to analyze the relationship between global and nodal properties of the WM network and clinical variables in pa-tients with SP. Results Both the patients with SP and HCs showed small-world organization of the WM net-works. However,compared with HCs,the patients with SP exhibited significant abnormal global topology,in-cluding increased shortest path length ( t=7. 95, P=0. 0001) and decreased global efficiency ( 30. 83 ± 16. 08,8. 25±6. 13,t=-9. 81,P=0. 002),clustering coefficiency (0. 03±0. 01,0. 02±0. 01,t=-4. 48,P=0. 0003),the average clustering coefficiency (t=-8. 28,P=0. 002),the small-worldness (3. 92±0. 79,2. 79 ±0. 56,t=-7. 82,P=0. 001) of their WM structural networks(all P<0. 005,FDR corrected). Further,the patients with SP showed a reduction in nodal efficiency predominately in the cingulate gyrus ( t=-4. 11, P=0. 000),superior occipital gyrus ( t=-6. 05, P=0. 002), superior temporal gyrus ( t=-10. 46, P=0. 001),middle temporal gyrus (t=-10. 38,P=0. 000),thalamus (t=-6. 10,P=0. 000) and putamen ( t=-8. 38,P=0. 000) (P<0. 005,FDR corrected). Partial correlation results showed that there was no signifi-cant correlation between global topological properties,node efficiency and clinical symptoms in patients group (Eglob:r=-0. 14,P=0. 279;Eloc:r=-0. 06,P=0. 628;Lp:r=0. 28,P=0. 031;Cp:r=0. 27,P=0. 043;λ:r=-0. 18,P=0. 166;γ:r=-0. 29,P=0. 026;σ:r=0. 26,P=0. 048;nEglob:r=0. 36,P=0. 005;nEloc:r=0. 02,P=0. 901). Conclusions The patients with SP exhibit the abnormal of whole brain WM structural network topological property and the node efficiencies of cortico-striato-thalamo circuitry are significantly re-duced.
