Objective To study the regulatory effect of cefodizime on the T-lymphocyte subsets of peripheral blood in mice with immunological liver injury.Methods The mouse model of immunological liver injury was induced by Bacillus Calmette Guerin and Lipoposaccharide.The study was conducted by using completely random design.The mice with immunological liver injury were divided into thymosin group,cefodizime high-,medium-,low-dose groups,ceftriaxone group and the normal saline group.The six groups were continuously administered agents respectively for 7 days,and T-lymphocyte subsets of peripheral blood in mice were determined and contrasted with those of the normal mice treated with normal saline on the 7th day.Flow cytomytry was used to determine the effects of cefodizime on T-lymphocyte subsets of peripheral blood in mice by using immuno-fluorescence technique.Results The immunological liver injury mice were deficient because their CD3+(%),CD4+(%),CD8+(%) and the ratio of CD4+CD8+ were lower than those of the normal mice.Cefodizime effectively increased CD3+(%),CD4+(%) and the ratio of CD4+CD8+ of the mice with immunological liver injury.Conclusion Cefodizime effectively improves the immune function of the host by regulating the balance between CD4+ cell and CD8+ cell.

Objective To analyze the serum levels of bone morphogenetic protein 4(BMP4)and nerve ax-on guidance factor 4(Netrin-4)in patients with diabetic retinopathy(DR),and to study their relationship with disease stage and prognosis.Methods A total of 186 patients with type 2 diabetes admitted to the hospi-tal from October 2019 to November 2022 were selected as the research objects.According to the presence or absence of retinopathy,they were divided into DR Group(108 cases)and non-DR group(78 cases),and 100 healthy people in the hospital were selected as the control group.According to the stage of DR,the DR pa-tients were divided into stage Ⅰ(19 cases),stage Ⅱ(14 cases),stage Ⅲ(22 cases),stage Ⅳ(23 cases),stage V(18 cases)and stage Ⅵ(12 cases).According to the visual impairment after treatment,the DR patients were divided into a good prognosis group(72 cases)and a poor prognosis group(36 cases).Serum BMP4,Ne-trin-4,fasting plasma glucose(FPG),glycated hemoglobin Alc(HbA1c),systolic blood pressure(SBP),dias-tolic blood pressure(DBP),triglyceride(TG),total cholesterol(TC),low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C),high density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent as-say.The serum levels of BMP4 and Netrin-4 in DR patients with different disease stages were analyzed.Multi-variate Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of DR,and the serum levels of BMP4 and Netrin-4 in DR patients with different prognosis were analyzed.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the diagnostic value of poor prognosis in DR patients.Results The FPG,HbA1c,SBP,DBP,TG,TC,BMP4,Netrin-4 levels in DR group were higher than those in control group and non-DR group,while HDL-C level was lower than that in control group and DR group(P＜0.05).There were significant differences in serum BMP4 and Netrin-4 levels between DR patients with different disease stages(P＜0.05).HbA1c,BMP4 and Netrin-4 levels were influencing factors for the occurrence of DR(P＜0.05).The serum levels of BMP4 and Netrin-4 in the poor prognosis group were higher than those in the good prog-nosis group(P＜0.05).The combination of serum BMP4 and Netrin-4 levels in the diagnosis of poor progno-sis of DR patients was better than that of each index alone.Conclusion The serum levels of BMP4 and Ne-trin-4 are increased in DR patients,which can assist in the evaluation of the disease stage of the patients.The combination of BMP4 and Netrin-4 has a good effect in the diagnosis of poor prognosis of patients.

Objective:To observe the effects of ointment and massage on inflammation, oxidative stress and angiogenesis after skeletal muscle trauma, and to explore their mechanisms.Methods:Forty-two adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into a blank group ( n=6), an ointment and massage (O&M) group ( n=18) and a model group ( n=18). The blunt contusion model of gastrocnemius malformation was established in both the O&M and model groups using self-made percussion instruments. Two hours after successful modeling, the anti-inflammatory pain-relieving cream was applied to the injured area, and massaged evenly and gently for 5 minutes. That was repeated with an interval of 12 hours. No treatment was given to the model and blank groups. On the 1st, 3rd and 7th days after modeling, injured gastrocnemius muscles were resected after collecting abdominal blood. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining and immunofluorescent (CD34) staining were applied, and serum superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA) contents were detected. Results:HE staining showed that at each time point the gastrocnemius muscle fibers of the model group were significantly more swollen and deformed, collapsed and dissolved than those of the blank group, with a large number of inflamed cells. The O&M group had better recovery, with more newly-generated muscle cells, less inflammatory infiltration and more normal cell shapes than the model group. Fluorescence was stronger in the O&M and model groups than in the blank group at each time point, with that of the O&M group significantly stronger than in the model group. The average SOD and MDA levels in the model and O&M groups were significantly higher than in the blank group, and on the 1st and 3rd days the O&M group′s average SOD level was significantly higher than the model group′s average, though by the 7th day there was no significant difference. The average MDA content of the O&M group was significantly lower than the model group′s average at each time point.Conclusion:Ointment and massage can effectively reduce the local inflammatory response and oxidative stress after a skeletal muscle injury. They can accelerate local angiogenesis, promoting the repair of damaged tissues.
