Objective:To investigate the clinical characters and prognosis of patients with systemic-onset juvenile idiopathic arthritis associated interstitial lung disease (SoJIA-ILD).Methods:Clinical manifestations, imaging features and prognosis were analyzed in 75 patients with SoJIA between October 2010 and December 2019 in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University.Results:Seventy-five patients with SoJIA were enrolled. Among 12 children with SoJIA-ILD, 6 were male and 6 were female. The mean age of onset was (7.9±2.6) years. All of the 12 patients had fever. Ten patients had arthritis which mainly occurred in large joints. The incidence of arthritis was knee, hip and shoulder from high to low. Two patients had no joint involvement at the onset of the disease and had no joint symptoms during the follow-up. Nine patients (75%) had fever, rash and arthritis at the same time. The clinical features of ILD were mostly nonspecific, including cough in 8 cases (75%), shortness of breath in 7 cases (58%), chest pain in 3 cases (25%), velcro sound in 4 cases (33%) and pulmonary hypertension in 1 case (8%). Inflammatory indicators were all signifi-cantly elevated, among which was CRP (235±112) mg/L, ESR (39±25) mm/1 h, serum ferritin (SF) (1 312±384) ng/ml and serum amyloid A (SAA) (212±101) mg/L. High resolution computed tomography (HRCT) of the chest presented as reticular or line shadows in 12 patients, consolidation in 7 patients, ground interlobular septal thickening in 5 patients, glass opacity in 4 patients and honeycomb lung in 1 patient. ILD occurred in 4 cases (33%) in the early stage of SoJIA (disease course ≤6 months), and 8 cases (67%) in the medium and late stages of the disease course (>6 months), but all appeared in the active status of SoJIA. All of 12 patients received glucocorticoids therapy, 11 patients received high dose of glucocorticoid (>1 mg·kg -1·d -1) and 2 pa-tients received intravenous methylprednisolone pulse therapy. All of 12 patients were treated with glucocorti-coids combined with immunosuppressant or disease modifying antirheumatic drugs and 5 patients needed dual therapy or triple therapy. One case had been treated with biological agents before the occurrence of lung injury and the other 11 cases had not used biological agents before. After the diagnosis of SoJIA complicated with ILD, 4 cases were treated with tocilizumab. Macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) was found in 7 cases and 25% had MAS for two times or more. Ten patients had partial remission or complete remission and 2 patients died of respiratory failure. Conclusion:SoJIA-ILD maybe asymptomatic at the early stage of the disease. It is associated with disease activity of SoJIA. HRCT examination is very important for early diagnosis. Patients with SoJIA-ILD have higher rate of recurrence, death and MAS. It needs to arouse the clinicians' attention.

Objective To investigate the effects of Huangkui Capsules on oxidative stress and micro-inflammation state in diabetic nephropathy patients with maintenance hemodialysis. Methods Forty-six patients with diabetic nephropathy who had received maintenance hemodialysis for over six month in Gansu Provincial People's Hospital were randomly divided into observation group (23 cases) and treatment group (23 cases) from January to December in 2014. Twenty healthy subjects who had physical examinations were selected as the control group at the same time. Observation group were given conventional hemodialysis for 4 hours, 3 times a week; treatment group were given conventional hemodialysis combined with Huangkui Capsules, orally, 2.5 g each time, 3 times a day. Both groups were treated for 8 weeks. Blood was collected before and after treatment for detection of hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), white blood cell (WBC), malondialdehyde (MDA), cycle of advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) levels. Results The levels of IL-6, TNF-α, AOPP, WBC, MDA and hs-CRP were significantly higher in the observation group and the treatment group compared with the control group before treatment (P<0.01), SOD and GSH-Px levels decreased (P<0.01); there was no statistical significance between the observation group and the treatment group (P>0.05). After treatment, the levels of IL-6, hs-CRP, MDA and AOPP increased in the observation group (P<0.05), GSH-Px and SOD decreased (P<0.05), there were no statistical significance in TNF-αand WBC (P>0.05);The levels of AOPP, TNF-α, hs-CRP, WBC, MDA and IL-6 in treatment group significantly decreased (P<0.01), GSH-Px and SOD significantly increased (P<0.01); there was statistical significance between the observation group and the treatment group (P<0.01). Conclusion Micro-inflammation state and oxidative stress exist generally in diabetic nephropathy maintenance hemodialysis patients. Huangkui Capsules can improve oxidative stress and micro-inflammation state in diabetic nephropathy maintenance hemodialysis patients.

Objective To explore the related factors of anxiety and gloomy mentality people aged 60-80 years and investigate the effectiue methods to intervention.Methods A follow-up study was proportional and carried out in Xicheng district of Beijing.Multi-phase,stratified,unequal cluster sampling was adopted to investigate old people in 2011 with WHO-QOL,Memorial University of Newfoundl and Scale of Happiness,Social Support Rating Scale,Self-Rating Anxiety Scale and Self-rating Depression Scale.2342 old people were randomly divided into control group and trial group.The trial group received health education,community social support,lightening the psychological stress in face to face,psychology guiding and group discussion.The control group received general observation only.Results Among 2342 old people,126 (5.3％) obtained anxiety and 201(8.6％) had gloomy mentality.The anxiety in the elderly was significantly related to age,marriment,culture,job,family type,family relationship,housing,income,medical insurance,retirement type,reading,keeping pets,character,training,feeling adjusting,life quality,subjective well-being,social support,depression (all P ＜ 0.05).The depression in the elderly was significantly related to gender,marriment,culture,job,family type,family relationship,housing,income,medical insurance,retirement type,reading,watching plays,character,feeling adjusting,drinking,training,life quality,subjective well-being,social support,anxiety (all P＜0.05).Scores of two groups had no significant difference before intervention.The change in scores of anxiety and depression in the trial group was obviously lower than in control group (P＜0.05).Conclusions The anxiety and gloomy mentality are common in old people aged 60-80 years in Xicheng District,which independently associated with related factors such as life quality,subjective well-being,social support and so on.After 6 months of treatment,the scores of anxiety and depression in the trial group is obviously lower than in control group.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of treatment of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor(rhG-CSF),recombinant human interleukin-11(rhIL-11)and recombinant human interleukin-2 (rhIL-2)on hematopoietic injuries induced by 4.5 Gy60 Coγ-ray irradiation in beagles,and to provide experimental evidence for the clinical treatment of extremely severe myeloid acute radiation sickness (ARS).Methods Sixteen beagle dogs were given 4.5 Gy60 Co γ-ray total body irradiation(TBI),then randomly assigned into irradiation control group,supportive care group or cytokines+supportive care (abbreviated as cytokines)group.In addition to supportive care,rhG-CSF,rhlL-11 and rhIL-2 were administered subcutaneously to treat dogs in cytokines group.The percentage of CD34+cells,cell cycle and apoptosis of nucleated cells in peripheral blood were examined by Flow cytometry.Results After 4.5 Gy 60 Co γ-ray irradiation,the CD34+cells in peripheral blood declined obviously(61.3%and 52.1% of baseline for irradiation control and supportive care group separately).The cell proportion of nucleated cells in Go/G1 phase was increased notably(99.27% and 99.49% respectively).The rate of apoptosis(26.93% and 21.29% separately)and necrosis(3.27% and 4.14%,respectively)of nucleated cells were elevated significantly when compared with values before irradiation(P<0.05) 1 d post irradiation.When beagles were treated with cytokines and supportive care,the CD34+cells in peripheral blood were markedly increased(135.6% of baseline).The effect of G0/G1 phase blockage of nucleated cells became more serious(99.71%).The rate of apoptosis(5.66%)and necrosis(1.60%)of nucleated cells were significantly lower than that of irradiation control and supportive care groups 1 d after exposure.Conclusions Cytokines maybe mobilize CD34+cells in bone marrow to peripheral blood,indce cell cycle block at G0/G1 phase and reduce apoptosis,and eventually cure hematopoieticinjuries induced by irradiation.

Objectivc To observe the therapeutic effects of combined cytokines on hematopoietic injuries induced by 4.5 Gy60 Co γ-rays irradiation in beagles,and to provide experimental evidences for the clinical treatment of extremely severe myeloid acute radiation sickness(ARS).Methods 16 beagles were given 4.5 Gy60 Co γ-rays total body irradiation,and then randomly assigned into irradiation control group,supportive care group and cytokines group.In addition to supportive care,recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (rhG-CSF),recombinant human interleukin-11(rhIL-11)and recombinant human interleukin-2(rhIL-2)were administered subcutaneouly to dogs in cytokines group.Peripheral blood hemogram was examined once every two days.Bone marrow and peripheral blood were collected to proceed colony cultivation 4 d pre-irradiation and 1 and 45 d post-irradiation.Conventional histopathological sections of sternum were prepared to observe the histomorphology changes. Results After irradiation,the population of all kinds of cells in peripheral blood declined sharply.WBC nadir Was elevated(1.04×109/L,but 0.28×109/L and 0.68×109/L for the irradiation control group and the supportive care group separately),the duration of thrombocytopenia was shortened (24 days,but 33 days for the supportive care groug) and red blood cell counts were maintained in the range of normal values after cytokincs treatment in combination.The colony forming efficiency of haemopoietic stem cells(HSCs)in bone marrow and peripheral blood decreased obviously 1 d post irradiation,but recovered to the level of that before irradiation 45 d post irradiation after supportive care and cytokines treatment.Hematopoietic cells disappeared in bone marrow of animals in irradiation control group,but hematopoietic functions were recovered after cytokines were administrated.Conclusions RhG-CSF.rhIL-11 and rhIL-2 used in combination could elevate WBC nadir,accelerate the recovery of leukocytes,platelets and red blood cells and promote the proliferation,differentiation and maturity of HSPCs left in the body after 4.5 Gy γ-rays total body irradiation,eventually restore the hematopoietic function.Hence,combination of rhG-CSF,rhIL-11 and rhIL-2 could serve as better therapeutic strategy to treat extremely severe myeloid ARS.

Objective To explore the clotting mechanism in beagles irradiated by 4.5 Gy γ-rays after treatment with supportive care,or supportive care and combined cytokines.Methods Sixteen beagles were divided into irradiation control group,Supportive care group and combined cytokines treatment group.Platelet aggregation test,thrombelagtography (TEG) and the time measurement were analyzed in vitro.Results In irradiation group and supportive care group,the platelet aggregation rates in beagles were decreased markedly and the k value of TEG was increased 7 d post-irradiation,while those indexes in combined cytokines treatment group changed little.At 14 d post-irradiation,each parameter of TEG in irradiated group changed obviously.The values of r,k,r+k and M were elevated significantly,clotting time and the maximum coagulation time of thrombus delayed,the Ma value was decreased markedly,and the maximum elasticity amplitude of thrombus was diminished.All parameters in combined cytokines treatment group were better than those in supportive care group.The thrombin time was prolonged obviously in irradiated group 14 d post-irradiation,while the thrombin time was the longest at 2-3 weeks post irradiation in supportive care group and combined cytokines treatment group(P>0.05).Conclusions Cytokines could improve the platelet aggregation and the blood clotting functions of beagles suffering from acute radiation sickness.

Objective To explore the mechanisms of cytokines on acute radiation disease in irradiated beagles.Methods The sera of beagles irradiated with 4.5 Gy γ-rays with cytokines treatment was collected at different time points post irradiation.The two-dimensional gel electrophoresis(2-DE)was used to isolate and compare the differentially expressed proteins in sera.HD-MS was used to analyze the differentially expressed proteins with significance,and the amino acid sequences should be determined. Results High resolution 2-DE gel map was obtained.There were six differentially expressed proteins in sera of irradiated beagles at different time points.Four protein spots were successfully identified by MS.A significant spot was identified as serum amyloid A(SAA)by HD-MS,with relative molecular mass of 13 077 and isoelectfie point of 6.26.Expression of SAA was not found 1 d pre-irradiation and 36 d postirradiation,but increased slightly 1 d(0.2166)and significantly 14 d post-irradiation(0.4577). Conclusions The expression of serum amyloid A was consistent with the process of acute radiation injury,which might indicate the turnover of the disease.

Objective To evaluate the effects of combined administration of recombinant human interleukin-11(rhIL-11),recombinant human G-CSF(rhG-CSF)and recombinant human interleukin-2 (rhIL-2)on acute radiation sickness(ARS)beagles.Methods Sixteen beagle were irradiated with 4.5 Gy60 Co γ-rays to establish ARS models,and were divided into irradiation control group,supportive care group and combined cytokines treatment group.After irradiation irradiation control group was given no treatment,the dogs in supportive care group received purely symptomatic treatment,while combined cytokines treatment group received rhIL-11 50μg/(kg·d)and rbG-CSF 10μg/(kg·d)subcutaneously(0-14 d)and rhIL-2 1×1 06 U/d(29-43 d)besides symptomatic treatment.Manifestation and characteristics of ARS beagles were observed,and the survival time were recorded.At last,post-mortem examination and histological examination were performed.Results All animals underwent nausea,diarrhea and fever.After irradiation,all animals in irradiation control group died in two weeks,and the mean survival time was 12.7 d,while only one died at 33 d in supportive care group.All dogs in combined cytokine group survived at 45 day after exposure,and their haematopoiesis and gastrointestinal tract were recovered.Conclusions Combination of rhIL-11 + rhG-CSF + rhIL-2 treatment could be significantly effective on ARS beagles irradiated by 4.5 Gy60 Co γ-rays,which could accelerate injured haemotopoiesis and intestinal tract recovery,increase the survival rate and improve the life quality of animals.
