Objective To compare the inhibition effect of budesonide suspension and dexamethasone on the rats′ pneumonic anaphylacticitis and serum IL-5,and study the effect mechanism in treatment of asthma with glucocorticoids on systemic administration and with budesonide suspension.Methods Twenty-six health wistar rats were randomly divided into normal group,asthmatic group,budesonide suspension group and dexamethasone group.Asthma models were sensitized with egg albumin.Before sensitized,budesonide suspension group were administered inhalation of budesonide suspension,and dexamethasone group were administered abdominal injection of dexamethasone.The level of IL-5 was measured with enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) reagent box,lung was eviscera-(ted after collecting) blood,pathological slice was made.Results The rats′ pathological changes of lung and bronchus were significant between asthma group and other groups,while there were no significant difference between budesonide suspension group and dexamethasone group,but both of two groups showed slight difference with normal group.Compared with normal group,the level of serum IL-5 in asthma group raised obviously,and there was significant difference(P0.05).Conclusions The treatment of inhalation of budesonide suspension can inhibit rats′ pneumonic anaphylacticitis,ameliorate rat anaphylactic asthma symptom.

OBJECTIVESTo study the phenomena of hepatitis B virus (HBV) integration into the tissues of hilar cholangiocarcinoma (HCCA) and to identify the integration sites in the host genome.

METHODSTen fresh HCCA samples were collected from the tissues by surgical ablation, 1 normal hilar bile duct sample selected as control. Cellular DNA were extracted by Wizard SV Genomic DNA Purification System. PCR-derived assay (HBV-Alu-PCR) was employed to amplify the viral-host junctions which contain the HBV sequence and the adjacent cellular flanking sequences. The PCR products were purified and subjected to sequencing by ABI-3730XL Auto DNA Analyzer. The sequence analysis of viral-host junctions was performed by DNASIS MAX 3.0 bioinformatics software. The insertion sites between viral and cellular sequences were identified through homology comparison using NCBI BLAST and MapViewer search.

RESULTSIn 10 HCCA samples, 5 were demonstrated to have HBV integration fragments with total 6 inserted sites identified. Sequence analysis from viral-host junction showed that HBV X gene inserted into host genome at random distribution with truncated fragments. HBV integration recurrently targeted the unknown region in upstream of CXXC finger protein-1 (CpG-binding protein) gene (4 cases). p53 tumor suppressor gene was also found at the integration site.

CONCLUSIONSThere is high integration rate of HBV DNA into cellular genome of HCCA. HBV integration is found frequently into or close to cancer-related genes. The findings demonstrate that HBV infection might have association with the pathogenesis of HCCA.

Objective To explore the causes of dengue fever resurgence in Guangxi, and to analyze the risk factors of dengue fever. Methods The descriptive epidemiological analysis was conduced based on the dengue fever data reported from 2006 to 2015, and the surveillance results of aedes and antibody levels in health population from 2013 to 2015 in Guangxi. Results Before 2013, dengue fever was imported from foreign country in Guangxi, accounting for 95.35％(42/45), and 75.71％of the imported cases was imported from Southeast Asia. The local outbreak of dengue fever was happened in 2014, accounted for 94.02％(849/903) of the total number of 10 years. From onset to diagnosis, Guangxi dengue fever cases need 0-70 d (median time interval is 6 d). Cases were reported year-round, but the peak season for the onset of dengue fever was from September to November, accounting for 96.46％of all cases (871/903). The number of cases reported in Nanning was the most (83.37％), followed by Wuzhou city (7.44％) and Guilin city (4.81％), and all the three cities had dengue fever outbreaks. The cases were mainly commercial service staff (27.80％) and houseworkers and unemployed people (18.16％). Results of aedes monitoring showed that the density of aedes was high in Guangxi. In more than 50％ of the monitoring seasons the breteau index (BI) stayed greater than 20. However, the antibody positive rate was only 3％ in the healthy residents of Guangxi. Conclusion The risk of dengue fever is high in Guangxi. Therefore, it is essential to emphasizing idea of prevention and control, strengthening immigration surveillance, improving diagnosis ability, enhancing public health education, and expanding monitoring range.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the relationship between the laxative potency and anthraquinones content of six kinds of traditional Chinese drugs (TCDs) like Rheum tanguticum, Polygonum cuspidatum, R. palmatum, R. officeinale, Semen Cassiae and Radix Polygoni Multiflori.

METHODThe half effective dose (ED50) was applied to determine the laxative potency and the content of anthraquinones was evaluated by RP-HPLC.

RESULTThe ED50 for the six kinds of TCD was 0.458, 0.686, 0.925, 1.004, 1.047, 1.986 g x kg(-1), respectively, and the sequence of laxative potency was R. tanguticum > P. cuspidatum > R. palmatum > R. officeinale > Semen Cassiae > Radix Polygoni Multiflori. In terms of the HPLC quantitative determination, the content of combined anthraquinones was 2.82% ,1.64%, 1.44%, 0.82%, 0.15%, 0.019%, respectively,and the sequence was R. tanguticum > Polygoni cuspidatum > R. palmatum > P. cuspidatum > Semen Cassiae > Radix Polygoni Multiflori.

CONCLUSIONThere is a great difference in laxative potency between TCDs, and the relationship between laxative potency and the content of combined anthraquinones was found. The bioassay may be utilized to evaluate and control the quality of TCD with the chemical methods.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the risk factors related to post-asphyxial multiple organ dysfunction (PA-MOD) in neonates.

METHODSA total of 397 neonates with birth asphyxia were enrolled from January 2009 to December 2010.The patients were divided into PA-MOD group (n=179) and non-PA-MOD group (n=218). The risk factors of PA-MOD were retrospectively studied.

RESULTSMultivariate logistic regression analysis showed that severe asphyxia, fetal distress, abnormal labor, and decreased amniotic fluid were the risk factors for PA-MOD among the neonates. Spearman rank correlation analysis showed that the number of the involved organs increased along with the increase of age at admission (P<0.05) and with the decrease of gestational age and birth weight (P<0.05).

CONCLUSIONSThe efforts should be made to enhance perinatal care for neonates, especially for preterm infants and low-birh-weight infants, to decrease the incidence of MOD.
