Objective To evaluate the dynamic changes of T lymphocyte subsets in children with hand-foot-and-mouth disease(HFMD)and to provide new evidence for the therapy and prognosis.Methods Peripheral venous blood samples of 346 HFMD cases in acute stage who were hospitalized in Beijing Ditan Hospital from May 1,2008 to August 31,2008 were collected and T lymphocyte subsets were assayed by flow cytometer.Meanwhile,T lymphocyte subsets of 67 HFMD cases in recovery phase were also detected.The pathogens were determined by reverse transcriptionpolymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR)using pharynx swab samples from 99 cases.Different samples were compared by independent-sample t test,paired t test or variance analysis.Results The average levels of T lymphocyte subsets of HFMD children in different agc groups were all lower than reference levels of healthy children in according age groups.In severe cases.T lymphocyte(TL)/lymphocyte (L)ratio in all age groups,helper T cell(Th)/L ratio in children older than 1 year,TL,Th and Th/suppressor T cell(Ts)ratio in children of 1-2 years old were all lower than those in common eases (P＜0.05).The Th/L ratio tended to increase with the disease progression.Ratios of TL/L and Th/L in common cases were increased in recovery phase(TL/L:56.3±8.6 vs 61.1±9.1,t=2.56,P＜0.05;Th/L:30.2±7.2 vs 34.9±7.9,t=2.90,P＜0.05)and all indices of severe cases except Ts/Lratio and Th/Ts ratio increased apparently in recovery phase(P＜0.01).TL[(1.738±0.976)×10~6/Lvs(2.696±1.946)×10~6/L,t=2.17,P＜0.05],Th/L ratio(25.9±7.0 vs 30.2±7.2,t=2.34,P＜0.05),Th[(0.864±0.550)×10~6/L vs(1.459±0.879)×10~6/L,t=2.90,P＜0.01]and L[(3.352±1.458)×10~6/L vs(4.664±2.435)×10~6/L,t=2.32,P＜0.05]of severe cases in acute phase were all lower than those of common cases(P＜0.05),while those were not significantly different in recovery phase between two groups(P＞0.05).The T lymphocyte subsets of enterovirus(EV)71 positive cases were lower than EVT1 negative cases,but there was no significant difference between these two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion T lymphocyte immune responses may be correlated with HFMD onset and progression.

Objective To analyze the correlation of visual acuity and metamorphopsia with foveal morphology before and after vitrectomy with internal limiting membrane peeling (ILMP) in idiopathic macular epiretinal membrane (IMEM) eyes.Methods This is a retrospective case series of 47 IMEM patients (49 eyes).All the patients underwent 25G pars plana vitrectomy with IMEM removal and ILMP.The best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was measured using the international standard visual acuity chart,and the results were converted to the logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) visual acuity.The severity of metamorphopsia was measured using M-charts.The central macular thickness (CMT),inner nuclear layer thickness (INT),inner retinal layer thickness (IRT),outer retinal layer thickness (ORT),the status of ellipsoid zone (EZ) were assessed with spectral-domain optical coherence tomography at baseline and each month postoperatively.The differences in BCVA,CMT,INT,IRT,ORT and status of EZ before and after surgery were analyzed,so did the correlations between these indexes at the same time.Results Compared with baseline,the postoperative BCVA was significantly increased (F=6.133,P＜0.001),but the M value,CMT,INT,IRT,ORT were significantly decreased (F=12.481,10.565,15.739,6.046,10.569;P＜0.001);the integrity of EZ was improved significantly (x2=12.309,P＜0.001).Preoperative BCVA was positively related to the CMT (r=0.720) and ORT (r=0.720,0.887;P＜0.05),while negatively related to preoperative integrity of EZ (r=-0.295,P＜0.05).The postoperative BCVA was positively related to the preoperative BCVA and postoperative CMT,ORT (r=0.774,0.754,0.842;P＜0.05),while negatively related to postoperative integrity of EZ (r=-0.676,P＜0.05).The preoperative M value was positively related to the preoperative CMT,INT,IRT,and ORT (r=0.931,0.668,0.840,0.637;P＜ 0.05).The postoperative M value was positively related to the preoperative M value and postoperative CMT,INT,IRT,and ORT (r=0.723,0.722,0.767,0.825,0.387;P＜0.05).Conclusions Vitrectomy with ILMP for IMEM can improve the visual acuity,metamorphopsia and foveal morphology.Both visual acuity and metamorphopsia correlate with foveal morphology.

Objective To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of vitrectomy combined with internal limiting membrane (ILM) tamping on macular hole and retinal detachment (MHRD) in highly myopic eyes.Methods 23 patients (23 eyes) were retrospectively reviewed,who were diagnosed as MHRD through examination of the ocular ftmdus,optic coherence tomography (OCT) and B-mode ultrasonography.There were 5 males (5 eyes) and 18 females (18 eyes).The mean age was (62.35 ± 8.28) years.The mean course of disease was 1.1 months.The logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 2.31 ± 0.72.The mean axial length was (28.66 ± 1.99) mm.All patients underwent 23G microincision vitrectomy.After vitreous gel and cortex were gently resected,the ILM around the edges of the macular hole was stained with indocyanine green,and was folded and pushed to fill the macular hole gently.Then silicone oil or C3F8 gas tamponade was applied in 18 eyes and 5 eyes,respectively.The silicone oil was removed after 3 months.The follow-up was 6 months.The BCVA,macular hole closure,retinal anatomical reattachment were retrospectively observed,and were used to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the surgery.Results At the 6 months after surgery,the logMAR BCVA was improved to 1.13 ± 0.38,the difference was significant (t=l 5.33,P=0.00).The postoperative macular hole closure rate and retinal anatomical reattachment rate were 100％.There were no ocular or systemic adverse events observed in all patients.Conclusion Vitrectomy combined with ILM tamping is an effective and safe treatment for the high myopic eyes with MHRD.

Objective Aliginic sodium diester(ASD) liposome was prepared and its aggregation stability was evaluated.Methods ASD liposome was made by reverse phase evaporating method from egg yolk lecithin,compared with blank liposome,the size distributions and mean particle diameters of ASD liposome and blank liposome were measured respectively before and after 40 hours heating under 37℃.Results Under the condition of n(PC)∶n(CHOL) = 1∶1,the mean size diameter of ASD liposome was 4.24?m.The mean size diameter of ASD liposome changed only 0.26?m after cultivation,however,the value of blank liposome was 1.35?m.Conclusion ASD loaded in the liposome enhanced the physical stability of the liposome.

Objective To evaluate engraftment status of patients after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(Allo-HSCT) and prompt relapse of disease based on DNA polymorphism analysis technique.Methods Sixty-six cases were detected by DNA polymorphism analysis technique and 25 cases were monitored and analyzed dynamically during this period.Results After Allo-HSCT,48 patients obtained type of donors,but 13 patients did not; 5 patients showed mixed chimerism.Two cases of type of donors converted into mixed chimerism and 4 cases of mixed chimerism converted into type of donors after some time. The others' engraftment status did not change.Conclusion DNA polymorphism analysis technique can detect engraftment status of patients exactly, rapidly, which provides effective evidences of constitution for more clinical therapy projects.

Objective To explore the serum level of gentamycin for orally in children with serious illness.Methods The serum level of gentamycin in 41 children who were in serious illness [multiple organ dysfunction(MODS)group with 21 cases and non-MODS group with 20 cases ] were monitored and the patients were treated with select decontamination of the digestive tract(SDD) from October 2004 to April 2005.Dosage:10 mg/(kg?d),orally taken three times(every 8 hours) one day.The blood after taking the drug one hour later in the fourth day was selected and the serum level of getamycin was monitored.Results Thirty-six children of 41 cases serum level of gentamycin were negative and 5 children(4 in MODS group and 1 in non-MODS group) who had alimentary tract hemorrhage were masccline in serum after taking gentamycin one hour later in the forth day.The absorption of gentamycin from enteric after orally was not(rela)-ted to MODS.There were statistics value between the gestrintestinal tract ulcer and serum level of gentamycin.Conclusions The safety for treating the children in serious illness with gentamycin for SDD is obvious.But we suggest to monitor the serum level of gentamycin for who has severe alimentary tract hemorrhage together with insufficiency of liver and kindey.

Objective To breed homozygous mice of Treg-Th17 fluorescence double labeling and to investigate the role of Treg-Th17 balance in endotoxemia. Methods Mice of Treg and Th17 fluorescence single labeling were brought from Harvard Medical School,USA and were mated and bred based on the genetic rules.The genomic DNA was extracted from the tails of second generation weaning mice for genotyping by polymerase chain reaction (PCR).Thereafter,the homozygous mice of fluorescence double labeling were selected to have successive inbreeding for three generations and their genotypes and growth status were measured.The endotoxemia model in vivo was duplicated and changes of Treg-Th17 balance were detected by flow cytometry analysis at 24 h and 48 h after endotoxemia. Results Among the seven second generation mice in the first batch,only three (two males and one female) were the wanted homozygotes.Meanwhile,the genotypes of their offsprings for the next three generations were all Foxp3 RFPKI-homo IL-17A GFPKI with normal growing status.As important component of endotoxin,lipopolysaccharide (LPS)could induce significant signal expressions of red fluorescence protein (RFP) and green fluorescence protein (GFP).The ratio of CD8a + Foxp3 +,CD8a + IL-17A +,CD4 + Foxp3 + and CD4 + IL-17A + in the lymphocytes went up significantly in the group of 24 hours of LPS treatment,as compared with the control group (P ＜ 0.01 or P ＜ 0.05 ),while the difference between the control group and the group of 48hours of LPS treatment had no statistical significance (P ＞ 0.05). Conclusion Foxp3 RFPKI-homoIL-17A GFPKI mice have identical genotypes and stable genetic characteristics and is a model animal and novel research platform that can provide real-time monitoring of the changes of Treg-Th17 balance in vivo.The role of T reg-Th17 balance works significantly at 48 hous after the subject is exposed to LPS stimulation,and the roles of CD8a + Foxp3 and CD8a + IL-17A + in Treg-Th17 balance require further investigation.

ObjectiveTo establish the reference intervals for ALT,AST,GGT and LDH among the Han nationality in Beijing.MethodsThe document C28-P3 issued by CLSI was a guideline about how to define,establish,and verify reference intervals in the clinical laboratory.IFCC had established multicenter enzymes reference intervals based on the guideline.Exclusion criteria were designed for screening candidate reference individual according to the document C28-P3 and the multicenter study's experience.Blood specimens were collected from 315 healthy individuals aged 20 to 60 years old,including 132 males and 183 females.Reference materials were used to ensure the accuracy of the test results of the four liver enzymes.The methods which used to test the four liver enzymes could be traced to the IFCC enzymes reference measure procedure,the reagent of ALT and AST included pyridoxal phosphate.Results There was statistically difference between males and females of the referenceranges forALT, ASTand GGT.Therefore,gender-specific reference intervals were established as ALT:8.2 -50.8 U/L (F),12.7 -71.8 U/L (M) ; AST:15.0 -36.7 U/L ( F),16.6 -51.1 U/L (M) ;GGT:9.0 -37.3 U/L (F),12.0 -50.9 U/L (M).For LDH,the reference interval was 127 -224 U/L,as no significant gender difference was found.ConclusionsThe reference intervals for the four liver enzymes based on the population of the Han nationality in Beijing are established.The upper reference limit for ALT in Beijing Han population is higher than that from other similar studies.

Objective To compare clinical outcomes in eyes with macula-off rhegmatogenous retinal detachments (RRD) with peripheral breaks managed by surgical protocols that result in either complete (CSFD) or partial subretinal fluid drainage (PSFD).Methods Following the clinical detection of a maculaoff RRD with peripheral retinal breaks,patients were offered the opportunity to enroll in the study,and those patients who signed the consent were evaluated for eligibility based upon the inclusion and exclusion criteria for this clinical study,and if fully eligible they were assigned prospectively to one of the two surgical designs (PSFD or CSFD,1∶ 1) using a random number table.Seventy-two eyes of 72 patients were enrolled and studied.Patients were treated with 25G plus vitrectomy,endolaser or transscleral cryopexy,either complete (n=36),or partial (n=36) subretinal fluid drainage,and 14％C3F8 (PFO) was used for intraocular tamponade.After surgery,all patients were kept in a supine position for 24 hours,and then in a clinically optimal position for 6-10 days.The study patients were examined at 1,3 and 6 months after surgery with thorough ophthalmic examinations.Macular optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging was acquired in 1 month.Anatomical and visual outcomes as well as intra-operative and postoperative complications of the two groups were compared.Furthermore,the persistence of subfoveal fluid in OCT images and the symptoms of distortion at 3 months were measured and recorded.The primary study endpoint of anatomic retinal reattachment for each group was based upon the 6-month time-point.Results The preoperative baseline characteristics between the two groups were not significantly different.The single-operation success rates were 88.9％ and 91.6％ respectively for the CSFD and the PSFD groups (x2 =0.158,P＞0.05).The mean best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) at 6 month endpoint were 0.99± 0.52 minimum resoluation angle in logarithmic (logMAR) for the CSFD group and 1.07±0.34 logMAR for the PSFD group(t=0.580,P=0.564).The mean operative time was longer in the CSFD group (62.25± 4.32) minutes than that in the PSFD group (47.9 ± 5.0) minutes (t =0.580,P=0.564).seven of 29 (24.1％) phakic eyes in the CSFD group had lens injury during SRF drainage,and none of the 31-phakic eyes in the PSFD group sustained lens damage.Residual PFO was present in 6 of 36 CSFD cases (16.7％).Successful retinal reattachment after primary surgery was achieved in 33) PSFD eyes and in 32 CSFD eyes based upon OCT imaging at 1 month demonstrated reattached foveae with no residual subfoveal fluid.Among these patients,22 patients (62.5％) in the CSFD group and 23(69.7％) patients in the PSFD group reported distortion in the operated eye or/and a difference in image size between the two eyes at the 6 month visit (P=1.00).Conclusions Partial subretinal fluid drainage during pars plana vitrectomy for the repair of macula-off RRD with peripheral breaks is effective.The success rates are not statistically different.Additionally,PSFD procedures can simplify the surgery procedure,shorten operative time and,and to some extent,reduce the incidence of complications relevant to the CSFD approach.

Objective To investigate the relationship between hepatic venous outflow obstruction (HVOO) and patterns of the hepatic vein (HV) drainage into inferior vena cava (IVC) in piggyback liver transplantation (PBLT).Methods A retrospective analysis on 202 cases of PBLT (from May 2000 to Aug.2015) was conducted.The recipients' patterns of HV drainage into WC and the angle ∠COB between the reconstructed outflow and IVC in the cross section were recorded by preoperative 3D reconstruction.And the lengths and diameters of recipients' HVs were measured during operations.The relationship between the incidence of HVOO and patterns of HV drainage into IVC was analyzed.Results There were 3 patterns of HV drainage into IVC:type Ⅰ (n =136),trunk of left and middle HVs;type Ⅱ (n=52),trunk of right and middle HVs;type Ⅲ (n=14):trunk of three HVs.There was no statistically significant difference within the HVs of each type,when the lengths and diameters were compared respectively.However,the angle ∠COB of type Ⅰ [(164 ±10.14)°] was significantly bigger than type Ⅱ [(44 ± 12.2)°] and type Ⅲ [(96 ± 13.1) °] (P＜0.05).Accordingly,the highest incidence of HVOO (23.5％) was foundin type Ⅰ,followed by type Ⅱ (9.6％),and type Ⅲ had the lowest incidence (7.1 ％) (P＜0.05).The correlation coefficient Cramer's V =0.765.Conclusion This study demonstrated that there was preferable relativity between the HVOO incidence and the patterns of HV drainage into IVC.Type I is more likely to have HVOO.Type Ⅲ is the most ideal one for PBLT.
