ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the effect of helicobacter pylori (HP) infection and eradication treatment on small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) in children.Methods:A prospective case-control study was conducted to select 68 children with symptoms of abdominal distension, abdominal pain, diarrhea and suspected digestive system diseases admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from June 2021 to June 2022. They were divided into HP negative group and HP positive group according to HP infection. HP positive group received triple standardized HP eradication treatment, 14 days as a course of treatment. The baseline SIBO positive rate and gastrointestinal symptom rating scale (GSRS) score of the two groups were compared. The HP positive group was followed up for 4 and 12 weeks after drug withdrawal for quantitative assessment of gastrointestinal symptoms and LHBT. The SIBO positive rate, GSRS score of the two groups and the change of SIBO positive rate and GSRS score of the HP positive group before and after treatment were compared. The measurement data with normal distribution were expressed, and independent sample t-test was used for comparison between the two groups. M( Q1, Q3) was used to represent the measurement data of non normal distribution, and Mann Whitney U test was used to compare the two groups; Friedman test was used for comparison between multiple time points, and Nemenyi test was used for pairwise comparison. Four grid table or paired χ 2 test was used to compare the counting data between groups. Results:The positive rate of SIBO in HP negative group was lower than that in HP positive group (36.1% (13/36) vs 62.5% (20/32)), the difference was statistically significant (χ 2=4.72, P=0.030). Four weeks after drug withdrawal, the SIBO positive rate in HP positive group was higher than that before treatment (87.5% (28/32) vs 62.5% (20/32)), and 12 weeks after drug withdrawal was lower than that before treatment (21.9% (7/32) vs 62.5% (20/32)), with statistically significant differences (χ 2=8.00, P=0.008; χ 2=13.00, P<0.001). There was no statistically significant difference in GSRS score between HP negative group and HP positive group ( P=0.098). The clinical symptoms of 32 children in HP positive group were improved 4 and 12 weeks after HP eradication was stopped. GSRS scores were lower than those before treatment (8.0 (6.0, 12.8), 7.0 (5.0, 9.0) points vs 15.0 (12.0, 19.0) points) , and the differences were statistically significant ( Z values were -3.91, -4.68, respectively; all P<0.001). Conclusions:HP infection can increase the positive rate of SIBO in children with suspected digestive system diseases. The standardized triple HP eradication therapy may further aggravate the overgrowth of intestinal bacteria while treating HP infection, but this effect can be eliminated after 12 weeks of treatment.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the application effect of the Beckman Coulter PK 7300 automatic blood group analyzer and the microplate method in ABO blood group screening .Methods A total of 12000 EDTA anticoagulation whole blood samples from January to May 2015 were collected from voluntary blood donors .The Beckman Coulter Pk7300 automatic blood group analyzer and STAR sampling microplate manual colorimetric method were to conduct the detection analysis .Results The accuracy for detecting ABO blood group had no statistically significant difference between the two methods (P>0 .05) .In the ABO blood group screening , the detection rates of ABO subtype and antibody weakening in the Beckman Coulter Pk 7300 automatic blood group analyzer were higher than those in the micro plate method .3 cases of ABO blood group typing and reverse typing were consistent in the detection by the Beckman Coulter Pk7300 automatic blood group analyzer ,but was inconsistent in the detection by the microplate method .4 cases of ABO blood group typing and reverse typing were inconsistent in the the detection by the Beckman Coulter Pk 7300 automat-ic blood group analyzer ,but was consistent in the detection by the microplate method .Conclusion The Beckman Coulter Pk7300 automatic blood group analyzer can safely and effectively conduct the ABO blood group screening in blood donors .The samples of suspicious detection results still need to conduct the manual interpretation by combining with the test tube method .
ABSTRACT
Objective To analysis the human cytomegalovirus (HCMV)and human T lymphotropic virus(HTLV)infection status in Beijing among voluntary blood donors.Methods Randomly selected 2 010 blood samples from five districts and counties of Beijing City to screen HCMV-IgG,HCMV-IgM and HTLV-Ⅰ/Ⅱ antibody by ELISA method.The positive samples were reexamined two times,two test results of samples were positive that were determined positive by ELISA. HTLV positive samples was confirmed by nested PCR.Results The HCMV-IgM and HCMV-IgG positive rates of Beijing blood donors were 2.19% and 92.59%,screened 1 case of anti-HTLV positive by ELISA method,then confirmed to be neg-ative result by nested PCR.The statistics showed that the HCMV-IgG positive rate female blood donors was higher than male (P 0.05).Conclusion In this investigation,2 010 cases of voluntary blood donors from five districts of Beijing were not found in cases of HTLV infection,HCMV infection was prevalent.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of bortezomib on proliferation and apoptosis of pancreatic cancer cell lines BxPC3,SW1990 and explore possible mechanisms of bortezomib's killing effect on cancer cells.Methods BxPC3,SW1990 cells were treated by using 1,10,50,100,500 nmol/L and 1,10 μmol/L of bortezomib,and cells without bortezomib treatment were considered as control group.The cell proliferation was determined by MTF assay,and apoptosis was determined by flow cytometry.Bak,Bax,Bcl2,Bcl-xl,survivin mRNA expressions were measured by RT-PCR,and Western blot was applied to determine the expressions of pro-caspase-3,cleaved-caspase-3,Bax,Bcl-2,surviving protein.Results When bortezomib concentration was higher than 50 nmol/L,it inhibited the proliferation of two cell lines in a dose and time-dependent manner.And with the same treatment the rate of proliferation inhibition of BxPC3 cells by bortezomib was greater than that of SW1990 cells,and the difference between the two cell lines was statistically significant (P ＜0.05).Apoptosis rates in the groups of BxPC-3 and SW1990 cells treated by 100 nmol/L bortezomib were (22.56 ± 4.23) ％ and (12.71 ± 2.23) ％,which were significantly higher than those in control group (2.15 ± 0.47) ％ and (2.32 ± 0.54) ％,P ＜ 0.05).In addition,apoptosis rate of BxPC3 cells was significantly higher than that of SW1990 cells (P＜0.05).Bak mRNA expression of BxPC3 and SW1990 cells after 100 nmol/L bortezomib treatment were not significantly changed,but the expression of Bax mRNA and protein was significantly increased (P ＜0.05).Bcl-2 mRNA and protein,as well as Bcl-xl mRNA expressions was significantly decreased (P ＜0.05).The expression of survivin mRNA and protein in BxPC3 cells were decreased,but were increased in SW1990 cells(P ＜0.05).The expression of pro-caspase-3 protein in the two cell lines was decreased,while the expression of cleaved-caspase-3 protein was increased (P ＜0.05).Conclusions Bortezomib can inhibit the proliferation of pancreatic cancer cell Iines BxPC-3 and SW1990 and induce apoptosis,and the effect on BxPC3 cells is more than that on SW1990 cells.The mechanism may depend on activation of the mitochondrial pathway of apoptosis,and be related to survivin-involved drug-resistance.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the relationship between PDD and the polymorphism of apolipoprotein E(apoE) gene,to inquire the etiological basis of PDD.Methods 11 Patients with PDD 40 patients with PD without dementtia and 52 unrelated controls were collected to detect the genotype of apoE gene by PCR－ RFLP. Results There was no difference in the apoE allele frequencies and genotype distribution in PDD group,PD without dementia group and control group(P >0.05). Conclusion There is no relationship between the polymorphism of apoEgene and the onset of PDD.The pathogenesis of PDD differs from that of AD.
