Objective To explore predictive factors of early-onset complications in children with acute bacterial meningitis.Method Retrospective study was made on clinical data and predictive factors of early-onset complications of 75 children with acute bacterial meningitis who were treated in our hospital during 2000-2005.Results The incidence of early-onset complications in children with acute bacterial meningitis was 50.7%,subdural effusions and hydrocephalus occured freqiently.The incidence of early-onset complications were closely correlated with onset age,coma,seizure,cerebrospinal fluid(CSF) protein concentration and CSF glucose concentration.Onset age younger than 12 months(OR=11.876,95% CI:2.592-54.33 P

Objective To explore the clinical characteristics and diagnosis of mycoplasma pneumoniae(MP) pneumonia showing lobar pneumonia.Methods Patients from Jan.2004 to Dec.2005 were selected as researching case,which had samptoms and signs of respiratory in clinic,the chest Xray shown lobar pneumonia,the MP of down respiratory′s secretion detected by polymerase chain reaction(PCR) and MP-IgM of serum detected by indirect hemagglutination were positive.The clinical data of them were reviewed.Results MP pneumonia showing lobar pneumonia was same to streptococcus pneumoniae pneumonia in clinic,but it had some characters:1.majority of the lobar MP pneumonia were children being student;2.the process was long,the samptoms of respiratory was tipical,the continuous fever was few,and the infectious samptoms was not obvious as streptococcus pneumoniae pneumonia;3.the injury to lung was more and tipical;4.the increase of white blood cell,neutrocyte and C-reactive protein were not clearly as to streptococcus pneumoniae pneumonia,but the absorbing of lung′s focal was relatively fast;5.the ?-lactams antibiotic was not effective,but macrolides was effective.Conclusions Clinical characters of MP pneumonia are needed to master,the variety of chest X-ray changes and differentiate from other pneumonia infected by other are needed to notice.

Objective To observe the efficacy and toxicity of low dose thalidomide combined with VAD regimen contained one-week dexamethasone in treatment on patients with multiple myeloma (MM). Methods 42 patients with MM were diagnosed in our hospital.The VAD regimen contained one-week dexamethasone was vincristine 0.4 mg/d, adramycin 10 mg/d and dexamethasone 40 mg/d for 4 days. At the same time, thalidomide is given 150-200 mg/d. Results The overall response rate (ORR) is 80.95%. Before and after treatment, all the detection indicators in MM patients were statistically different (P＜0.001). There is small adverse reactions. Conclusion Low dose thalidomide combined with VAD regimen contained one-week dexamethasone in treatment of MM has more merits such as less side effects, good tolerance, convenient administration and significant curative effects, so it should be recommended in clinical works.

Through the discussion on TCM physiological characters of females in follicular, ovulatory, luteal and menstrual phases and treatment principles, the clinical application of artificial cycle therapy of acupuncture and moxibustion was introduced for irregular menstruation and the typical cases were attached. It is suggested that the menstrual cycle follows the growth-consumption rule of yin, yang, qi and blood. The corresponding treatment principles should be applied in accordance with the change rule of menstrual cycle. Hence, it is worth to adopt the artificial cycle therapy of acupuncture and moxibustion for irregular menstruation in clinical application.

Objective To investigate the feature of ventilation induced lung injury(VILI) with different tidal volume in neonatal rats.Methods Thirty-two neonatal rats were assigned to control group(without ventilation),conventional ventilation group(tidal volume 0.010 L?kg-1 for 5 h),hyperventilation 5 h group(tidal volume 0.025 L?kg-1 for 5 h),hyperventilation 3 h group(tidal volume 0.025 L?kg-1 for 3 h) randomly.After ventilation,the lungs were obtained to weigh,score about the degree of lung pathologic injury was count.The levels of IL-6 and IL-10 of lung tissue were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Results The VILI histopathology score in hyperventilation 5 h group,hyperventilation 3 h group,conventional ventilation group and control group were 9.63?1.40,4.40?1.06,6.50?1.85 and 0.00,respectively,the differences were significant among the 4 groups(P=0.000).IL-6 in hyperventilation 5 h group,hyperventilation 3 h group,conventional ventilation group and control group were(785.33?39.06) pg?g-1,(656.78?48.82) pg?g-1,(701.6?33.65) pg?g-1 and(635.02?65.78) pg?g-1,there were significant differences among the 4 groups(P=0.000).The IL-6 level was positively correlated with VILI histopathology score(r=0.78,P

Objective To explore the association between syndrome types of primary hepatic carcinoma(PHC) and coagulation function.Methods From Jan.2015 to May.2016,a total of 176 cases of PHC patients were enrolled to analyze the correlation between syndrome types and coagulation function.Results The liver stagnation and spleen deficiency syndrome(34.66%) was the most common syndrome in all patients,followed by wet and heat resistance syndrome(22.73%) and qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome(17.05%).Prothrombin time(PT),activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT),thrombin time(TT) and D-dimer(D-D) levels of patients were significantly increased,with significant differences between liver stagnation and spleen deficiency group and wet and heat resistance syndrome group,liver and kidney Yin deficiency syndrome group(P<0.05).While fibrinogen(FIB) decreased significantly,but without significant differences between each group(P>0.05).Conclusion Coagulation function in PHC patients with spleen and kidney Yang deficiency syndrome,wet and heat resistance syndrome and liver and kidney Yin deficiency syndrome could be poor,but that in patients with qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome and liver stagnation and spleen deficiency could be relatively good.Increasing of PT,APTT,TT and D-D could be with certain significance to identify liver stagnation and spleen deficiency syndrome with other syndrome types.

· AIM: To explore the effects of C3F8 tamponade on hypotony on or after primary operation and the prognosis of severe ocular trauma.· METHODS: Twenty-six cases (26 eyes) of severe ocular trauma were treated with pure C3F8 tamponade on or after primary operation. IOP was observed, and the curative effect of C3F8 tamponade was observed on secondary operation with prognosis evaluated.· RESULTS: Hypotony improved in 23 eyes postoperatively,in which 18 eyes with edematous and cloudy cornea, 15 eyes had clear cornea after gas tamponade. Retina was reattached under the gas action in 21 eyes during the secondary operation. Visual acuity improved in 22 eyes, remained unchanged in 3 eyes and decreased in 1 eye during the follow-up of 3-12months.· CONCLUSION: Application of pure C3F8 tamponade on or after primary operation can effectively improve hypotony after severe ocular trauma and benefit a better prognosis.

Objective Virus-specific RNA interference (RNAi) is a powerful inhibitor of gene expression and replication of HBV. It is known to have high efficiency, specificity, and few side effects. We wanted to evaluate the effects of siRNA silencing HBV replication on the growth of hepatocellular carcinomatic(HCC) cells to find out an ideal method for treatment of HCC. Methods We transfected siRNA into HepG2.2. 15 cells (HCC cell inserting HBV gene) and detected the HBsAg and HBV DNA copies for evaluating the inhibitory effects of siRNA. Then we evaluated cell growth and self-renewal ability after transfection of siRNA by MTT. Results The HBsAg level and HBV DNA copies were reduced after the transfection of siRNA, the highest inhibition rate was 83.9%,while the inhibition rate of HBV DNA copies reached 73. 4%. The siRNA group's growth ability and self-renewal rate were lower than the control group in 5 days. Conclusion siRNA can effectively inhibit HBV replication and expression in HepG2.2.15 cells and silencing HBV replication can inhibit HepG2.2.15 cell's growth and self-renewal.
