It is difficult for early diagnosis due to the different characteristics and clinical manifestation between neonate and older children, which leads to the difficulty of diagnosis timely and affect the condition adversely. This article introduced the common etiology, characteristics of clinical manifestation, diagnosis and treatment of neonatal acute heart failure.

Objective To explore the treatment effect and application value of ultrasonic guided mammotome minimally invasive whirling surgery and open surgery for benign breast tumor.Methods 264 patients with benign breast diseases were randomly divided into observation group and control group,132 cases in each group.The control group took open surgery,the observation group used mammotome minimally invasive surgery,rotary cutting system.Recorded clinical surgery treatment of the two groups.Results The operating time,intraoperative blood loss,operation scar size of the observation group were (18.27 ± 3.05) min,(10.86 ± 1.69) mL,(2.76 ± 0.85) mm respectively,those of the control group were (53.48 ± 6.17) min,(97.54 ± 14.28) mL,(27.63 ± 4.31) mm respectively,the differences between the two groups were statistically significant (t =58.7753,69.2560,65.0429,all P ＜ 0.05).In the observation group,breast deformation in 0 case,postoperative occurrence skin pigmentation in 1 case,itchy skin in 2 cases,with lateral swelling in 1 case,the patients' satisfaction score was (93.42 ± 3.89) points.In the control group,breast deformation in 5 cases,postoperative occurrence skin pigmentation in 8 cases,skin itching in 9 cases,lateral swelling in 7 cases,the patients' satisfaction score was (88.16 ± 1.45) points,the differences between the two groups were statistically significant(x2 =5.096,5.636,4.648,4.604,t =14.557,all P ＜0.05).Conclusion Using ultrasonic guided mammotome minimally invasive rotary surgical treatment for benign breast diseases can shorten the operation time,reduce intraoperative bleeding,reduce the incidence of postoperative complications,patients' satisfaction is higher,and it is worthy of popularization and application in clinic.

The diagnostic value of glutamic acid decarboxylase antibody (GAD 65-Ab) was more valuable than islet cell antibody (ICA) in type 1 diabetes mellitus by receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curves; likelihood ratios of different regions of GAD 65-Ab and ICA could reflect the probability of type 1 diabetes mellitus.

Objective To study the distribution patterns of bacterial flora in sigmoid colon tissues and stools in normal population.Method Bacterial flora were identified and analyzed by using 16sDNA sequencing technology in fresh stool samples (n =13) and colon mucosa samples (n =10).Results The diversity and abundance of bacterial flora were significantly larger in the stool samples than in the sigmoid colon samples (P ＜ 0.001,P ＜ 0.001,P =0.042,P =0.006).The consititution of phylum flora between the two groups were same,including flrmicutes,bacteroides,proteobacteria,and actinomycetes.However,the proportions of firmicutes and bacteroides in stool samples were significantly higher than in the sigmoid colon samples,whereas the proportion of proteobacteria was significantly lower (P ＜ 0.001,P =0.025,P ＜ 0.001).At the genus level,faecalibacterium and bacteroides were the dominant flora in feces,whereas pseudomonas,lactococcus,acinetobacter,and flavobacterium were the most common flora in sigmoid colon mucosa.The amounts of bifidobacterium and lactobacillus were low in both two groups.Conclusion The distribution of bacterial flora remarkably differ in stools and sigmoid colon mucosa.

Objective To study the characteristics of ? cell function change and to explore the predictive value of glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD)-Ab and other factors for ? cell function in the patients with latent autoimmune diabetes of adults (LADA). Methods Sixteen LADA patients (positive GAD-Ab) and 24 type 2 diabetic patients (negative GAD-Ab) were followed-up at 0, 6th, 12th, 30th, 36th, 42th and 48th months respectively. Their fasting and postprandial 2h C-peptide and glycemic control were measured. GAD-Ab was determined by radioimmunoprecipitation assay and C-peptide by RIA. Results Decreased fasting C peptide (FCP) levels (Month 30, 36, 42, 48 compared with Month 0, P

AIM: To study the effects of taurine at different doses on renal oxidative stress and inflammation induced by paraquat in rats.METHODS: Male SD rats (n=48) were randomly divided into 4 groups: negative control group, paraquat group, paraquat + low-dose taurine group, and paraquat + high-dose taurine group.The serum levels of creatinine and urea nitrogen were detected by a biochemical analyzer.The levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were measured by colorimetry.The plasma concentrations of IL-6 and intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1 were detected by ELISA.Renal reactive oxygen species (ROS) was checked by fluorescence probe dihydroethidium (DHE).The protein levels of renal p-P38 MAPK, p-ERK1/2 and p-JNK were determined by Western blot.The mRNA expression of TNF-α, IL-6 and TGF-β1 was detected by real-time PCR.RESULTS: Serum creatinine and urea nitrogen increased after paraquat poisoning, and decreased after feeding with taurine in poisoned rats, with better result in high-dose taurine group.Taurine reduced the oxidative stress and inflammation in the renal tissue, and also reduced the protein levels of p-JNK, p-ERK1/2 and p-P38 in the kidney of paraquat-poisoned rats.CONCLUSION: Taurine attenuates renal injury induced by paraquat poisoning in rats.The mechanism may be related to reducing renal MAPK activity, oxidative stress and inflammatory response.

Objective To study if IRF1 could regulate the polarization by IRF 1 and M1 status and affect M1 media-ted antitumor function .Methods U937 derived M1 macrophage ( U937-M1 ) model was established .The cells were devided into 4 groups:the PMA pretreated unpolarized macrophage (M0), the PMA, IFN-γand LPS induced M1 macrophage (M1), the siRNA of IRF1 knocked down M1 macrophage (siIRF1) and the negative control siR-NA treated M1 macrophage (siC).Furthermore, the expression of CD86 and CD206 was detected by flow cytome-try, the M1/M2 associated markers (IL-12p35,IL-12p40,IL-23p19,IL-6,TNF-α/IL-10) and IFNB1 were ana-lyzed by qPCR,the expression of IL-12p70 and IL-10 was examined by ELISA, the expression of IRF1 and IRF5 was detected by Western blot , the proliferration and apoptosis of HCC were analyzed by CCK 8 and flow cytometry , respectively.Results Compared with the U937-M1, the IRF1 knocked down group showed impaired CD 86 expres-sion, but enhanced CD206 expreesion ( P<0.05 ); the expression of M1 related cytokines including IL-12p35, IL-12p40,IL-23p19,IL-6,TNF-αand IFNB1 was decreased, but M2 related cytokine IL-10 level was increased (P<0.01);the expression of IFN-β, IL-12p70 and IRF5 was impaired, but IL-10 was enhanced (P<0.05).In IRF1 knocked down U937-M1, the CCK8 analysis indicated that the M1 mediated anti-proliferation effects on hepatoma carcinoma cell were turned to pro-proliferation ( P<0.05);the flow cytometry showed that the M 1 mediated pro-ap-optosis effects were reversed to anti-apoptosis ( P<0.01 ) .Interestingly , IRF5 and IFN-βwere decreased at both mRNA and protein levels in IRF1 knocked down U937-M1 compared with the U937-M1 (P<0.01).Conclusions IRF1 may partly modulate IRF5 and IFN-β, and further regulate M1 polarization and its antitumor effects .

We analyszed 108 examination papers that were taken when the students of 8 groups had finished theexercitation. The attainment was 73.6?4.4 points. Among the 400 selective questions, the difficult questions whichwere concentrated only on a few diseases accounted for 35.3%. There was mush difference between the proportion of theselective questions and that of the demands of the teaching program in different system of diseases. There was few or noselective question in the important diseases of the teaching program. It is suggested that the proposition of difficultquestions must include the important diseases in the teaching program. The diseases that are not commonly encountereddiseases may be deleted from the teaching program, but the commonly encountered must be put in the teaching program.It is necessary to reinforce the ability of students to analyse and resolve problems[
