Clinical and genotypic characteristics of infantile inflammatory bowel disease / 中华儿科杂志

Objective@#To analyze the clinical and genotypic characteristics of infantile inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).@*Methods@#The age of onset, family history, clinical manifestations, and treatment effect were retrospectively analyzed in 39 infants (male 23 cases, female 16 cases) with IBD who were admitted to the Department of Gastroenterology in Children′s Hospital, Capital Institute of Pediatrics from January 2007 to December 2017. Next generation sequencing (NGS) based on target gene panel was used for gene analysis in 17 patients.@*Results@#The median age of onset was 0.5 (0.5, 1.0) month. The most common clinical symptoms included diarrhea (39, 100%), malnutrition (38, 97%), hematochezia (34, 87%), fever (25, 64%), and perianal diseases (24, 61%). Four children had associated family history. Among the 17 patients whose gene was analyzed, 10 were found to have the pathogenic gene variation, within whom 7 had interleukin-10 receptor α subunit (IL-10RA) mutation, 2 had CYBB heterozygous mutation, 1 had interleukin-10 receptor β subunit (IL-10RB) mutation. The therapeutic medicine included mesalazine, steroids, and thalidomide. Eighteen children (46%) reached clinical remission (10 cases) or partial remission (8 cases).@*Conclusions@#The incidence of single gene mutation in infants with IBD is high, with IL-10RA mutation as the most common. Refractory diarrhea and malnutrition may indicate infantile IBD.

Interleukin-10 receptor gene mutations induced very early onset inflammatory bowel disease in 6 infants / 中华儿科杂志

Objective@#To analyze the clinical features and interleukin-10 receptor gene mutations in six infants with very early onset inflammatory bowel disease (VEO-IBD).@*Methods@#Four girls and two boys with VEO-IBD admitted to Children's Hospital Affiliated to Capital Institute of Pediatrics from June 2016 to September 2017 were reviewed. The clinical data including general condition, clinical symptoms, laboratory tests, and colonoscopy and pathological results were collected and analyzed. Interleukin-10 receptor α subunit (IL-10RA) gene was examined in all patients.@*Results@#Persistent diarrhea and fever were the most common symptoms and were found within 1 month after birth in all 6 patients. Anemia, oral ulcer or perianal lesions and growth retardation were common concomitant symptoms. All patients had colonoscopy examination and the results showed multiple ulcers affecting the colon with biopsies revealing acute and chronic inflammation. Three patients were found to have cryptitis and crypt abscesses. Gene sequencing revealed IL-10RA gene mutations in all six patients, including 3 cases with homozygous mutations (one with c.537G>A and two with c.301C>T) and 3 heterozygous mutations (paternal c.301C>T in all cases; maternal c.299T>G, c.350G>A and c.537G>A, respectively) . After conventional treatment, one got clinical and pathological improvement according to colonoscopy, three improved clinically, one worsened and died, and one died of septic shock secondary to intestinal perforation.@*Conclusions@#VEO-IBD is associated with IL-10RA mutation, usually with severe intestinal symptoms and significant extra-intestinal symptoms, as well as varied responses to conventional treatment. In our study, c.301C>T and c.537G>A are the most common mutations.

Study on the Feasibility of Evaluating Drug in vitro Sustained Release Performance by Overflow Dissolu-tion Method / 中国药房

OBJECTIVE:To study the feasibility of overflow dissolution method for evaluating the drug in vitro sustained re-lease performance. METHODS:Overflow dissolution method was established by simulating the drugs elimination in vivo. Using Nifedipine sustained-elease tablets(Ⅰ)from 2 different manufacturers as model drug A,B,concentration-time curve,cumulative release rate- time curve,release velocity-time curve of model drugs in release pool at 3 different overflow speed (0,1.50,3.00 mL/min)were investigated. RESULTS:When overflow speed was 0,the cumulative dissolution was consistent with that of the con-ventional dissolution method. As the overflow speed increased,cmax of drug A,B was decreased [A:(8.89±0.20),(5.21±0.04), (3.51±0.03)μg/mL;B:(7.62±0.05),(4.80±0.09),(2.89±0.04)μg/mL];cumulative release rate was increased [A:(85.47± 2.45)%,(94.29 ± 2.44)%,(96.04 ± 2.56)%;B:(73.28 ± 1.13)%,(78.46 ± 1.94)%,(82.50 ± 1.69)%] ;tmax was ahead (A:1.5,1.0,0.5 h;B:2.0,1.0,0.5 h). CONCLUSIONS:Overflow dissolution method has avoided the inhibition of too large drug concentration on drug release,making complete drug release and more accurate evaluation of in vivo sustained release performance of the preparation.

A comparison between 635/808 nm dual-wavelength semiconductor laser and He-Ne laser irradiation in the healing of surgical incisions / 国际生物医学工程杂志

Objective To compare healing effects of surgical incisions using 635 /808 nm dualwavelength semiconductor laser and He-Ne laser irradiation.Methods 168 cases of non-malignant tumor surgery patients were randomly divided into 2 groups:test group including 83 cases which were treated on the surgical incisions by laser irradiation of the semiconductor illumination with low-intensity power; positive control group with 85 cases treated with He-Ne laser.Observation was carried out on incision healing by the clinic manifestations including redness,heat,swelling,pain,exudation,wound open,adverse event and the incision length offset.Results There was no significant difference between experimental group and the control group on incision healing (P＞0.05).Conclusions The treatment efficacy of the dual-wavelength semiconductor laser on surgical incisions healing is similar with that of the He-Ne laser.

Prevalence of hyperlipidaemia among 30～59 year-old rural residents in Changzhou:a cross-sectional study / 中华疾病控制杂志

Objective To study the status of prevalence of hyperlipidaemia among rural residents aged from 30 to 59 in Changzhou and provide evidence for taking prevention measures.Methods By the means of the cluster random sampling,a questionnaire survey and medical examination were conducted among 10 018 permanent residents in rural areas of Changzhou.The fasting plasma cholesterin(TC),triglycerides(TG),high density lipoprotein-C(HDL-C) were measured.Age-standardized prevalence rates were calculated by using the direct standardization method according to 2000 China population census.Results The prevalence of hyperlipidaemia of this population was 32.3%,the age-standardized prevalence was 31.3%,and the prevalence among men was significantly higher than women(P
