Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and stenting of intravascular stenting (PTAS) and internal medicine in the treatment of secondary severe stroke in young patients with severe symptomatic middle cerebral artery stenosis.Methods The clinical data of 77 cases with severe symptomatic middle cerebral artery stenosis(ste nosis rate≥70％)confirmed by digital subtraction angiography(DSA) were collected retrospectively in our hospital from January 2011 to June 2015.The patients were divided into PTAS group and medical treatment group,and the data were collected including the modified Rankin Score (mRS score) at admission,the US National Institutes of Health Stroke volume neurological impairments score (NIHSS score)at admission,as well as mRS score,the recurrence of ischemic stroke,death and intracerebral hemorrhage within 1 year.Results The primary end-point rates within 30 days after enrollment in PTAS group and medical treatment group were 0％ and 5.77％ respectively,and the stroke recurrence rates within 1 year were 4.35％ and 13.46％ respectively,The differ ence was not statistically significant(P＞0.05).Meanwhile,there was no death and intracerebral hemorrhage in both two groups.The rates of mRS≤1 were 91.30 ％ and 69.23 ％ respectively in PTAS group and medical treatment group,and the difference was statistically significant (P＜0.05).The rates of mRS≤2 were 95.65 ％ and 84.62 ％ respectively in PTAS group and medical treat ment group,and the difference was not statistically significant(P＞0.05).Conclusion PTAS is safe for the severe symptomatic middle cerebral artery stenosis,and is more efficient in dectasing the risk of recurrent stroke in young population compared with medical treatment.

The present study aimed to compare the clinical efficacy of a 0.4% carbomer gel and 1% carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) containing artificial tears in treatment of dry eye patients. Sixty subjects with mean age of 45.89 years who had symptoms and signs of dry eye were enrolled in this prospective, investigator-masked and stratified random sampling study. The subjects were divided into two parallel groups with 30 subjects (60 eyes) in each group. One group received carbomer gel, and the other group received 1% CMC containing artificial tears. Subjects received the drops 3 to 4 times or more per day for 3 months. At the first visit time, the precorneal residence time of these two drops was measured. The efficacy was assessed by comparing the subjective symptoms (ocular dryness, foreign body sensation, burning sensation and pain), and the objective test results of tears breakup time, Schirmer's test and corneal fluorescein staining prior to the study and after the treatment. As a result, the ocular residence time of carbomer gel was significantly longer than that of 1% CMC (P<0.001). Most of the primary subjective symptoms and objective test results were improved after treatment in both carbomer gel group and 1% CMC group. As to the improvement of each symptom and objective test result, carbomer gel was more effective than 1% CMC group (P<0.01). In conclusion, carbomer gel had longer precorneal residence time and was more effective than 1% CMC in the treatment of patients with dry eyes.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the status of human papillomavirus ( HPV) infection and its genotypes in male patients in Zhenjiang area.

METHODSUsing PCR and reverse dot blot hybridization, we determined the genotypes of HPV DNA in 245 male patients at our Clinic of Dermatology and STD.

RESULTSThe total rate of HPV infection was 43.67% (107/245), and 18 subtypes were detected. Among the 107 HPV-positive cases, low-risk, high-risk, and combined high- and low-risk infections accounted for 39.25% (42/107), 38.32% (41/107), and 22.43% (24/107), respectively. The most notable low-risk HPV types were HPV6 and HPV11, and the most notable high-risk HPV types were HPV16, HPV52, and HPV58. The rates of single infection and multi-infection were 53.27% (57/107) and 46.73% (50/107), respectively. One case had the most types, infected with 8 genotypes. No statistically significant differences were observed in the total rate of HPV infection among different age groups (Χ2 = 7.999, P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe dominant subtypes of HPV infection in male patients in Zhenjiang area were HPV6, HPV11, and HPV16. The most common subtypes were HPV6 and HPV11 in low-risk infection, and HPV16, HPV52, and HPV58 in high-risk infection.

Objective To find up a suitable beginning scan time so that to assure the image quantity during CTA of brain.Methods 30volunteers were checked by heart colour sonography first,then CTA at earlier stage was done,when the density in basilar artery high up to120 HU,that time was regarded the time as beginning scan time,the relative curve between beginning scan time and ejection fraction(EF) was drew,according to this relative curve,34 patients were examined by CTA,the displaying situation of vessel was evaluated comparatively with DSA in part of patients.Results According to this method,the successful rate of CTA in patient’s group was 100%,the trunk of brain vessel and its 1~3 level branch were showed in 100%,the 4~5 level branch of middle cerebal artery showed in 94.1%(32/34).Conclusion According to EF of heart to determine the beginning scan time of CTA is practical,that the image quantity of CTA can be assured.

Objective: To study the rehabilitation efficiency of adjuvant derma transplantation in treatment of front palate fistula. To find a better way to solve the problem of correcting the front fistula in short of the nearby tissue. Methods: Established the front fistula model in the oral and nasal cavity in the front of the palate with surgery. 30 Japanese big ear rabbits were divided into 2 groups. One month after operation, 15 rabbits were operated with the nearby tissue into the inner of nasal cavity and by transplanting their back skin while the others were treated only with the nearby tissues. The rehabilitation process and the histological changes of the palate were observed. Results: All dermal flaps survived after transplantation. This surgical method got a satisfying effect(P<0.05). The rate of success for correcting with single nearby tissues was lower. Conclusion: Adjuvant derma transplantation for rehabilitation of the front palate fistula is effective and reliable in the rabbits. The combination of the nearby tissue and homeochronous derma transplantation might be a good mode for correcting the front fistula in short of the nearby tissues.

BACKGROUND:A large number of experiments have shown that bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels (BMSCs) have good effects on the treatment of lung disease or improvement of lung injury, and its therapeutic effect is mainly oriented to reduce the inflammatory response. OBJECTIVE: To study the effects of BMSCs combined with reduced glutathione in murine models of bleomycin-induced lung injury. METHODS:BMSCs were isolated from a male NOD/SCID mouse and cel morphology and phenotype were observed. Sixty-four female NOD/SCID mice were randomly divided into a control group, a model group, a BMSCs group and a BMSCs+reduced glutathione group (combined group). The control group received intratracheal injection of normal saline, the model group received intratracheal injection of bleomycin, and the BMSC group received BMSCs injectionvia the tail vein at 2 hours after intratracheal injection of bleomycin, and combined group received BMSCs+reduced glutathione injection via the tail vein at 2 hours after intratracheal injection of bleomycin. Al mice were kiled after 7 days, and levels of tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-β, malondialdehyde in lung tissue were detected and lung tissue specimens were obtained for pathological examination. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:BMSCs were fibroblast-like cels, Positive for CD10, CD13 and CD44, but negative for CD34 and CD45. Compared with the control group, the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-β and malondialdehyde were increased in the model group, while decreased significantly in the BMSCs group and combined group (P < 0.05), especialy in the combined group (P < 0.05). Pathological examination showed that more serious lung injury was observed in the model group and BMSCs group than the combined group. These findings indicate that BMSCs combined with reduced glutathione can more effectively protect against bleomycin-induced lung injury.

Objective This study aimed to assess the effects of active and passive smoking on chronic kidney disease (CKD) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).Methods Seven hundred and five patients with T2DM were recruited in the study and were divided into three groups based on smoking status as active smokers,passive smokers and non-smokers.Twenty-four hour urinary albumin excretion (24hUAE) was measured,and estimate glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was calculated with age and blood creatinine levels.Results (1) The proportion of CKD in T2DM in the present study was 31.63％ (223/705) with 28.6％ (22/77),30.0％ (15/50) and 29.6％ (73/247) for non-smokers,passive smokers and active smokers in men,and 29.9％ (40/134),35.9％ (66/184) and 7/13 for non-smokers,passive smokers and active smokers in women,respectively.In comparison with non-smokers,a higher risk of CKD was found in both passive and active smokers (OR =1.07 and OR =1.05 in men ; OR =1.31 and OR =2.74 in women,respectively).(2) Compared with non-smokers,passive smokers had a significant higher risk for albuminuria in women (OR =2.02,P =0.016).(3) After adjusting for gender,age,duration of T2DM,BMI,systolic blood pressure,glycosylated hemoglobin A1C and lipids,there was a significant decrease in eGFR between active and never smokers (P =0.018)or passive smokers (P =0.000) in women.No differences could be found in eGFR between each smoking statues in men.Conclusions Smoking exposure alone confers a high risk for CKD in patients with T2DM.Our results highlight an importance in implementation of a smoke-free environment for patients with T2DM.
