In the present study we measured the lipid peroxide content in plasma and lung homogenate by Yagi's method, and analyzed the composition of surfactant phospholipid and surface activity of pulmonary surfactant by thin layer chrom-otography and by Wilhelmy's film balance.The results showed that the lipid peroxide level was increased in plasma and lung homogenate; licithine,tysopho-spholipidcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine were decreased in bronchial-alveolar lavege fluid; and pulmonary surfactant surface activity was lowered.The findings suggest that decreased surface activity may result from the decrease of disaturated phospholipidcholine, which may be due to its impaired synthesis.

Objective To study the relationship between peripheral blood regulatory T cells CD4 + and the antiviral effect in the patients with chronic hepatitis C.Methods 128 patients with chronic hepatitis C after antiviral treatment and follow-up were col-lected as the experimental group,the peripheral blood was respectively extracted before treatment and after treatment and at 24-week follow-up.The flow cytometry was adopted to detect CD4 + percentage.Moreover the liver function indexes and HCV-RNA quantitation were detected.80 individuals were selected as the normal control group.Results HCV-RNA quantitation,AST,ALT, CD4 + (%)had statistical differences between the the experimental group and the control group(P <0.05);the HCV-RNA quantita-tion,AST,ALT,CD4 + (%)levels after treatment and 24-week follow-up in the experiment group were significantly decreased(P <0.05).Conclusion The antiviral treatment can effectively reduce the damage of chronic hepatitis C,raise the cure rate,reduce the liver damage.The peripheral blood CD4 + regulatory T cells can be used as the index of the antiviral treatment efficacy and hepatitis C virus(HCV)infection.

Objective To study the retrieved human allografts pathologically in order to probe into the histological changes of implanted allograft. Methods The specimens were retrieved from seven cases between February 2003 and March 2004, and the allografts had been in situ from two to 16 months. Of seven cases, four were diagnosed primarily as malignant fibrohistocytoma of proximal humerus, osteosarcoma of femoral shaft, bone giant cell tumor of distal femur and bone giant cell tumor of proximal tibia each, which were treated with wide resection of tumor and massive allograft transplantation and internal fixation of plate or inter-locking nail; two were open comminuted fracture of distal femur, treated with massive allograft transplantation and internal fixation, underwent autograft bone transplantation because of united massive allograft, had a punch biopsy of allografts for observation; one was tibial open fracture being fixated with inter-locking nail and small segment allograft transplantation, sustained infection at two weeks after primary operation and underwent debriment, removal of internal fixation and external fixation. Results Of seven cases, five were found with bone absorption radiographically, and were classified into three types:1)sever bone absorption; 2)bone absorption associated with sinus and effusion of the wound; 3)bone absorption accompanied by pyogenic infection. The later condition was caused by bacterial infection without a relationship of allograft. And the former two conditions could be classified into two subtypes: 1)osteoclastic absorption, which was followed by new bone formation; 2)inflammatory absorption, which was found with infiltration by round inflammatory cell, preponderantly lymphocytes, and mononuclear phagocytes with few osteoclasts, osteoblasts or new bone formations. Moreover, in sever bone absorption, vascular lesions such as vasculitis, swelling of endothelial cells or proliferation changes in the vessels, and obliteration of the arteries. Conclusion An intensive infiltration accompanied by vascular lesions may be the evidences of histological changes suggestive of an immune reaction directed against the grafts, and the failure of the clinical outcomes.

Objective To study the relationship between liver histological changes and expression of HBcAg in peripheral blood dendritic cells in patients with chronic hepatitis B.Methods The peripheral blood samples were obtained from 24 patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) and 8 healthy individuals.The peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated.DCs were isolated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells and enriched by culturing with recombinant human interleukin 4(rhIL-4) and recombinant human granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (rhGM-CSF),then DCs were harvested and the costimulators of CD80,CD86,CD40 and CD54 on DCs were tested by immunofluorescence flow cytometry.These costimulators were compared with liver histological changes.Results Percentage of CD40 and CD86 was significant lower than that of healthy donors(P

The management for qualification documents of medical instruments is very important work to management department of medical instruments. Because the number of qualification documents of medical instruments is very large and they have an expiry date, it is difficult to manage them. This article discussed how to manage qualification documents of medical instruments, and an information management system that has a function of traceability management has been developed. This information management system standardizes management for qualification documents of medical instruments, and ensures that qualification documents of medical instruments are available and can be traced. Besides, it can reduce the amount of work for medical instruments management.

Objective To observe the influence of Qingwen Baidu decoction (QBD) on serum procalcitonin (PCT) and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels in septic rats and study the mechanism of heat-clearing and detoxifying method for treatment of sepsis. Methods Fifty male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into control group (n=5), model group (n=25), and heat-clearing and detoxifying experimental group (experimental group, n=20). The septic model was reproduced by intra-peritoneal injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS, 5 mg/kg). In control group, an equal volume of normal saline was given. After modeling for 2 hours, the heat-clearing and detoxifying experimental group received QBD the first time (composition of the decoction: Gypsum Fibrosum Recens 30 g, Rehmanniae Radix 10 g, Bubali Cornu 15 g, Coptidis Rhizoma 4 g, Gardeniae Fructus 5 g, Platycodonis Radix 5 g, Scutellariae Radix 5 g, Anemarrhenae Rhizoma 5 g, Paeoniae Radix Rubra 5 g, Scrophulariae Radix 5 g, Forsythiae Fructus 5 g, Glycyrrhizae Radix 5 g, Moutan Cortex 5 g, Lophatheri Herba 5 g) by gavage (0.01 mL/g); the rest administration time was 08:00 to 09:00, once a day. The rats in model group were given an equal volume of warm water by gavage. At different time points after modeling, the blood of 5 rats in control group, model group, and experimental group was collected from the abdominal aorta. The serum PCT and CRP levels were tested by the enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and the pathological changes in lung and intestinal tissue were observed under a light microscope. Results Compared with the control group, the PCT level of the model group after modeling for 2 hours was significantly increased (ng/L:332.32±22.85 vs. 70.46±3.18, P<0.01), this situation continued until 72 hours after modeling. CRP level in the comparison between the control and model groups did not have statistical significant difference at 2, 8, and 48 hours after modeling (all P > 0.05). The level of CRP in model group was lower than that of control group at 24 hours and 72 hours after modeling (μg/L:281.34±32.81, 237.84±41.42 vs. 350.09±56.67, P<0.05 and P<0.01). There were no statistically significant differences in PCT levels between model group and experimental group after modeling for 8 hours and 24 hours (both P > 0.05). The PCT level of experimental group was significantly lower than that of model group beginning from 48 hours after modeling (ng/L: 321.57±28.00 vs. 358.12±10.14, P < 0.05), and this situation continued until 72 hours after modeling (ng/L: 269.50±49.10 vs. 347.69±26.90, P <0.05). The CRP level of experimental group was significantly lower than that of model group beginning from 8 hours after modeling (μg/L:232.73±13.29 vs. 335.35±53.78, P<0.05), this statistical significant difference between the two groups persisted until 72 hours after modeling (μg/L:177.31±6.70 vs. 237.84±41.42, P<0.05). Compared to those in the model group, the lung tissue inflammatory cell infiltration, the intestinal mucosal inflammation and interstitial edema were milder in the experimental group. Conclusion Heat-clearing and detoxifying therapy can effectively reduce the serum PCT and CRP levels of septic rats induced by LPS, and it can alleviate the infiltration of inflammatory cells in lung tissues so as to play a role in protection of tissue organ.
