Neonatal Langerhans cell histiocytosis: a case report / 中华围产医学杂志

We reported a case of neonatal Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) with his clinical manifestations, examinations, diagnosis and treatment. This infant was hospitalized due to the rash and poor response. He was diagnosed as LCH after admission by imaging, skin biopsy and immunohistochemistry. The infant died because his parents refused all possible treatments. At the moment, no effective treatment is available for LCH patients, while the main managements are infection control and necessary supportive care. Pulmonary infections often contribute to the death of LCH patient and can aggravate the situation by stimulating histiocytic hyperplasia.

The Intratympanic Inflation by Tympanum Inflatable Balloon for Meniere ’s Disease / 听力学及言语疾病杂志

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of the intratympanic inflation by tympanum inflatable balloon for patients with Meniere’s disease(MD) .Methods A total of 36 confirmed cases (according to the listening stage) of Ⅱ - Ⅲ period of MD patients were randomly divided into two groups :experimental group and control group ,18 cases of matched group ,who were staged before preoperation by hearing ,Ⅱ period (average threshold 25~40 dB HL) 6 cases ,Ⅲ period (41~70 dB HL) 12 cases ,were treated by intratympanic methylprednisolone per‐fusion after putting tympanostomy tube under endotoscope ,then once every 3 days perfusion with a total of three times .There were 18 cases of experimental group staged before preoperation by hearing ,Ⅱ period (average thresh‐old 25~40 dB HL) in 5 cases ,Ⅲ period (41~70 dB HL) 13 cases treated by using tympanum inflatable balloon in the tympanum under endotoscope .Two groups were given conventional improved microcirculation and nutritional therapy .Results In 18 cases of patients in experimental group ,for the 18 to 24 months follow -up after treatment ,6 cases of vertigo were fully controlled (grade A) ,10 cases of vertigo basically controlled (grade B) ,2 cases of vertigo partly controlled (grade C) .Vertigo effective control rate was 88 .89% (16/18) .After 18 to 24 months treatment ,two groups of 36 patients with tinnitus and pure tone average threshold had no obvious change .In 18 ca‐ses of patients in the matched group ,during the 18 to 24 months follow -up after treatment ,3 cases of vertigo were fully controlled (grade A) ,7 cases of vertigo basically controlled (grade B) ,8 cases of vertigo partly controlled (grade C) .Vertigo effective control rate was 55 .56% (10/18) .The experimental vertigo basic control rates were higher than the control group (χ2 = 4 .985 ,P<0 .05) .The activitives in the two groups had improved significantly . No obvious differences were found between two groups .Conclusion With the intratympanic gasing by tympanum in‐flatable balloon for patients of Ⅱ - Ⅲ Menier’s disease ,control rates was high and motile ability were improved , but tinnitus and hearing improvement was not obvious .

Advances in chemical components and pharmacology of genus Gentiana / 中国中药杂志

The recent progresses on chemical components and pharmacological activities of the genus Gentiana were summarized. The main chemical constituents of this genus are iridoids, xanthone and flavone. There were more than ninety iridoid compounds, one hundred xanthone compounds, and thirty four flavone compounds isolated up till now. And flavone compounds were obtained mainly from aerial part. The plants of this genus had broad bioactivities such as antifungal activity, anti-inflammatory activity and liver protective effect. These mentioned above would be helpful for further studies on the plants of the genus Gentiana.

Analyse the relation of the stage and type with the lab diagnosis guideine in the patients with PM and DM / 中国实用内科杂志

Objective To analyse the lab diagnosis guideline in the patients with PM and DM,and guide the clinical diagnosis. Methods Stage the controlling condition and examine the serologic zymogram,electromyography and pathology.Results In the and Hospital of Hebei medical Vnirersity,from Jan.2003 to Jan.2005 CK,CK-MB,AST,LDH and HBDH was higher in 82.9%patients of aetive stage than the stable stage,especially changed obviously in CK.The occurance ritio(75.9%,48.3%)of the inside electricity and multiphase wave were much higher than the stable stage(46.7%,20.0%).Lots of organic fibre shrank in PM,so did the inflammation of lymohocyte soakage.In DM,the fascicle began to shrink in different degrees.Conclusion CK could become the guideline to watch the activity of illness.The number of the electromyography inside electricity and multiphase wave are related to the illness stage of patients with PM and DM.In PM pathology,muscle fibre had some infected cell soakage,with the differential recessive change.The pathology character in DM was the atrophy around the facicle and the change of tiny blood vessel.
