Objective:To investigate the effects of hydrogen rich-saline (HRS) on intestinal mucosal barrier in rat with intestinal ischemia/reperfusion injury (IIRI).Methods:Twenty-four healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 8 weeks, were randomly divided into 3 groups (8 in each group) by random number table method: sham group, model group and HRS group.Rats in HRS group were intraperitoneally injected with HRS (10 mL/kg) at 30 min of ischemia, and the same amount of normal saline was intraperitoneally injected in model group.After 45 min of ischemia and 6 h of reperfusion, rats were sacrificed.Serum and ileum were collected for further detection.Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)- 1β and IL-17A expression levels in serum were detected by conducting enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The localization expressions of tight junction protein Occludin was detected by immunohistochemical staining (IHC), while the localization expression of tight junction protein zonula occluden-1 (ZO-1) were detected by immunofluorescence staining (IF). The protein expression of Occludin, ZO-1, and Lysozyme were detected by performing Western blot.The mRNA expression of Lysozyme and α-defensin were detected by real-time PCR (qPCR).Results:ELISA results proved that the levels of serum TNF-α and IL-1β in HRS group rats were significantly lower than those in model group [(62.02±29.97) ng/L vs.(113.40±44.58) ng/L, (21.68±0.35) ng/L vs.(28.29±3.49) ng/L], while the level of IL-17A increased [(28.18±5.28) ng/L vs. (15.10±3.60) ng/L] (all P<0.05). IHC staining: compared with model group, the expression of Occludin in HRS group was uniform and continuous, and the staining was darker.IF results: compared with model group, the fluorescence signal intensity of ZO-1 in HRS group rats significantly increased, and the distribution was clear and continuous.Wes-tern blot results: compared with model group, the expression levels of Occludin and ZO-1 proteins in HRS group rats remarkably increased (0.79±0.06 vs. 0.54±0.04, 0.91±0.11 vs. 0.51±0.13), while Lysozyme protein decreased (1.50±0.40 vs. 2.99±0.80) (all P<0.05). qPCR results revealed that the expression level of Lysozyme mRNA in HRS group rats was lower than that in model group (1.64±0.33 vs. 2.20±0.40), while α-defensin mRNA obviously increased (0.82±0.19 vs. 0.47±0.13) (all P<0.01). Conclusions:HRS protects intestinal mucosal barrier by inhibiting the expression of tight junctions and the secretion of antimicrobial peptides in rat suffering from IIRI.

Objective In a large-scale clinical medical examination, A2 type best multiple-choice test questions to the same knowledge were used respectively in simple and complex form, to compare the difficulty and discrimination indices of the two forms of test questions and provide evidence to the improve-ment of clinical medical examination. Method In a large-scale clinical medical examination more than 4000 candidates participated, and 20 questions to different knowledge points were randomly selected and used in the examination respectively in simple and complex A2 type best multiple-choice test questions. The difficulty and discrimination indices of the two forms of test questions were compared. Results The average difficulty coefficient of the 20 simple test questions (65.5 words per question in average) is 0.6829, and the average discriminative powers are 0.2675 and 0.2579 respectively using identification index method and point biserial correlation method. The average difficulty coefficient of the 20 complex test ques-tions (135.5 words per question in average) is 0.7095, and the average discriminative powers are 0.3065 and 0.2967 respectively using identification index method and point biserial correlation method. Conclusion To the same knowledge points, the average difficulty of complex A2 type best multiple-choice test questions is slightly lower than the simple ones, while the average discriminative power is increased in the complex questions. The complex A2 type test questions are of higher quality and more in line with the requirements of the medical entrance examination, medical education and examination reform.

Advanced schistosomiasis is the most serious clinical type of schistosomiasis. Its diagnosis and treatment are relat?ed to many special departments,such as gastroenterology,general surgery,neurology,endocrinology,radiology,traditional Chinese medicine,blood purification,endoscopy,intervention,and ICU. It is necessary to apply a multidisciplinary treatment (MDT)mode. However,the mode has no universal standard and guide in practice. It is very important for the implementation of MDT mode of advanced schistosomiasis to form a treatment expert team,formulate the formal working procedures,and standard?ize the treatment schedules. The standardized implementation of MDT mode will be important to provide a more effective clinical decision on advanced schistosomiasis.

Objective To investigate the role of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) in diagnosis and treatment of colorectal submucosal lesions. Methods EUS were applied in 74 patients with suspected colorectal submucosal lesions. According to the origin of submucosal lesion, the patients had received biopsy, endoscopic ultrasonography-fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) and endoscopic treatment or surgery. The correlation between EUS and clinical pathology is analyzed retrospectively. Results In the diagnosis based on EUS, there were 28 cases of neuroendocrine tumors (occurred in the rectum), 15 lipomas (4 cases occurred in ileocecal, 1 in transverse colon, 8 in ascending colon, 2 in sigmoid colon), 2 rectal gastrointestinal stromal tumor (1 in muscularis propria and the other in muscularis mucosa), 14 external pressure changes (9 ovarian tumor, 2 lymph nodes, 3 pelvic tumor), 5 cyst (4 in transverse colon, 1 in ascending colon), 1 gas cyst, 3 sigmoid colon endometriosis, 4 rectum malignant tumor invasion, 2 intestinal lymphoma. All the patients had received biopsy, EUS-FNA, endoscopic treatment or surgery. Compared with pathology, a total coincidence rate of 91.9% (68/74) was achieved by EUS, and 2 cases were pathologically diagnosed as leiomyoma, which is considered as rectal carcinoma by EUS at first, 1 case of intestinal lymphoma instead of lipoma, 2 inflammatory mass instead of malignant tumor around the rectum, and 1 rectal carcinoma instead of endometriosis. Conclusion The digestive tract structure could be showed clearly with EUS, and the size of the colon and rectal submucosal lesions, the layer of origin and the structural relationship of adjacent tissues could also be detected. Then, the appropriate treatment against the colon and rectal submucosal lesions would be adopted after the accurate judgment of lesions with EUS.

Objective To evaluate the clinical characteristics and the clinical outcomes of perianal abscess (PA) in neonates.Methods A retrospective review was performed on the collected data of 185 patients of PA in neonates prospectively admitted to Binzhou Medical University Hospital from January 2008 to December 2015.Patients were divided into 2 groups on the parents' intention:nonsurgical treatment and surgical treatment,the standard surgical treatment for PA was incision and drainage with the use of packing.The standard surgical treatment for PA was surgical incision drainage of lower abscess under local anesthesia by the use of filling tamponade iodoform gauze,while the patients receiving conservative treatment took hip bath perianally with topical 1 ∶ 5 000 potassium permanganate,besmearing erythromycin eye ointment outside locally.Incision-thread-drawing procedure was recommended in fistula-in-ano (FIA) after 6 months.Antibiotics were administered in all patients in the early days.The clinical data of age,gender,accompanying diseases,abscess amount and location,treatment approach,healing time and recurrence rates were analyzed with statistical method.Results All patients were boys,time of visiting hospital was 1-25 day,the average time 7.5 days;60 cases (32.4％)had neonatal diarrhea,45 cases (24.3％)had neonatal jaundice,but no patients had severe fever.A single skin lesion was present in 145 patients (78.4％),2 lesions in 30 patients (16.2％),and 10 patients had 3 lesions (5.4％).The most commonly affected sites were at 9 o'clock clockwise direction with 115 (62.2％)lesions on lithotomy position,followed by 3 o'clock clockwise direction with 65(35.1％) lesions by 1 o'clock clockwise direction with 3 (1.6％) lesions and 6 o'clock clockwise direction with 2 (1.1％) lesions.Bacteria cultures were obtained from 123 patients (90.4％,123/136 cases) of surgical treatment and 35 patients (71.4％,35/49 cases) of nonsurgical treatment obtained the results of bacteria culture.The average healing time was (21 ±2) days (10-60 days) in the surgical treatment group,and (36 ± 3) days (9-90 days) in the nonsurgical treatment group,7 out of 136(5.1％) patients had a recurrence with surgical treatment,incision drainage was performed again with the use of packing,and FIA was not found,10 out of 49 (20.4％) patients had a recurrence with nonsurgical treatment group,and 6 out of 49 (12.2％) were spontaneously resolves within the first year of life,4 out of 49 (8.1％) developed into FIA,incision-thread-drawing procedure was performed after 6 months.The significant difference was observed between and nonsurgical treatment and surgical treatment in healing time (t =-6.707,P =0.000),recurrence (x2 =11.347,P =0.001) and FIA formation rate (x2 =10.054,P=0.002).Conclusions PA is an entity in neonates.Incision and drainage of PA is an effective and safe therapy in the early days.Surgery for PA may result in low recurrence rates,a low rate of evolution toward FIA,and a short healing time,which should be considered as the primary treatment.The key procedure is to keep the drainage unobstructed by the use of filling gauze drainage to prevent crissum abscess recurrence.Postoperative care with antibiotics is effective to shorten hospital stays.
