ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the effects of Pidomorph on serum immune cell level and T cell subsets in children with bronchial asthma.Methods 140 pediatric patients with bronchial asthma from January 2014 to October 2016 in our hospital were randomly divided into experimental group and control group according to the order of admission,70 cases in each groups.The control group was treated with conventional glucocorticoid drugs,and the experimental group was treated with pidotimod.The total effective rate of clinical treatment,the rate of rapid breathing in the flow rate,forced expiratory peak value,forced breathing vital capacity were compared between two groups three weeks after treatment,and the serum levels of immune cells(IgA,IgG,IgM)and T cell subsets(CD3+,CD4+,CD8+)were compared before and after treatment.Results The total effective rate was 92.86％(65/70)in the experimental group and 72.86％(51/70)in the control group,the total effective rate in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P<0.05); Forced breathing speed in the speed,forced expiratory peak value,forced breathing vital capacity in the experimental group were better than the control group(P<0.05); After treatment,the levels of serum immune cells(IgA,IgG,IgM)in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P<0.05); After treatment,the levels of T cell subsets(CD3+,CD4+,CD8+)in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Pidotimod is effective and safe in the treatment of bronchial asthma in children,it can effectively regulate T cell subsets and improve the immune function of children with asthma.
ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo observe the effect of ginsenosides Rb1 on cerebral blood flow of rat models with cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, which could provide a new theory of cerebral protective mechanism about ginsenosides Rb1.Methods Twenty-four rats were randomly divided into sham-operation group, model group, normal saline control group and ginsenosides Rb1 group, 6 rats in each group. The middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) model was established by thread embolism method. At the end of I/R, in the rat of ginsenosides Rb1 group, ginsenosides Rb1 40 mg/kg was immediately intraperitoneally injected, while in the rat of normal saline control group, an equal volume of normal saline was injected intraperitoneally. After I/R for 24 hours, the cerebral local amount of blood flow was measured, the rats' behavior score was observed, and the volume of cerebral infarction was monitored by 2, 3, 5-triphenyl tetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining.Results The percentage of volume of cerebral infarction [(64.23±8.12)% vs. 0%] and behavior score [3.0 (2.0-4.0) vs. 0 (0-0),P< 0.05] in model group were significantly higher than those in sham-operation group, while the cerebral local amount of blood flow in model group was obviously lower than that in sham-operation group (mL/min: 125.75±57.65 vs. 225.01±78.25,P< 0.05); Compared with the model group and normal saline control group, the percentage of volume of cerebral infarction [(23.62±8.74)% vs. (64.23±8.12)%, 56.72±8.92] and behavior score [0.5 (0.0-2.0) vs. 3.0 (2.0-4.0), 3.5 (1.0-4.0)] in the ginsenosides Rb1 group were significantly lower, the cerebral local amount of blood flow was markedly increased in the ginsenosides Rb1 group (177.25±75.36 vs. 125.75±57.65, 132.65±58.65,P< 0.05).Conclusion Ginsenosides Rb1 can increase the cerebral blood flow in rats with cerebral I/R injury, which maybe one of the mechanisms of cerebral protection of Ginsenosides Rb1.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the genetype distribution of mycoplasma pneumoniae(MP) by denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography(DHPLC).Methods A total of 300 cases nasopharyngeal aspirate were collected from our hospital.The MP genes of standard strains and clinical specimens isolates were amplified by PCR followed by DHPLC and genetype determination.Results A total of 110 cases were positive after 24 hours fermentation from 300 cases with pharyngeal swab.By the specific primers of MP-129,MP-FH standard strain and specimens,2 280 bp and 2 580 bp gene fragments were made out respectively.One hundred and ten strains of clinical isolates were detected by DHPLC.One hundred and seven strains of P1-Ⅰ were 1b subtype,3 were type P1-Ⅱ which were all 2a subtype.Conclusion The genetype of MP infection in children from our hospital is P1-Ⅰ,1b subtype by using DHPLC technology.
