Recurrent herpes labialis in the pediatric population: Prevalence,therapeutic studies,and associated complications

Recurrent herpes labialis (RHL) is an incredibly common condition, though the medical literature evaluating pediatric aspects is limited. This paper assesses prevalence and therapeutic studies of pediatric RHL as well as disease complications. A comprehensive literature search of English‐language citations based on PubMed queries of selected terms was performed, with exclusion if methodology was not discussed, or if studies had 10 or fewer patients. RHL prevalence in pediatrics has been assessed by measures of point and periodic prevalence, though methodologic limitations may under‐ or over‐estimate the true prevalence of RHL. Studies have been conducted to evaluate therapeutic safety, tolerability, and efficacy of antivirals in the pediatric population. Pediatric RHL point prevalence ranges from 0.72% to 5.2% depending on the population study and the methodologies used. Pediatric RHL carries a significant public health burden and is often implicated in patients with eczema herpeticum, erythema multiforme, reactive infectious mucositis eruptions, and hypersensitivity reactions. There are few studies that evaluate the rates of occurrence of these sequelae associated with pediatric RHL.     

膝骨关节炎患者关节滑液中IL-17水平与疾病严重程度的相关性

目的 探讨膝骨美节炎(KOA)患者美节滑液中IL 17的水平与疾病严重程度的相关性，为临床诊治KOA 提供新思路及新方法。方法 选取2017年1月?2018年12月南充市中心医院康复科收治的15。例膝骨美节炎患者作 为实验组，同时纳入30例健康志愿者作为对照组。实验组釆用视觉模拟量表(VAS)评价膝关节的疼痛程度，采用膝关 节学会评分系统(KSS)评价膝关节的功能及采用Kellgren Lawrence (KL)分级系统评价膝关节X线严重程度，通过 ELISA试验检测两组膝关节滑液中IL17的水平。采用Spearman相关分析KOA患者关节滑液中IL 17水平与膝关节 疼痛程度、膝关节功能及X线严重程度的相关性。结果 实验组关节滑液中IL17的水平明显高于对照组(P <0. 05). IL 17水平在滕美节炎KL分级之间比较，差异无统计学差异(P>0. 05)。IL 17的水平与膝关节VAS评分呈正相关 (P=0. 914,P<0.01),IL 17的水平与KSS呈负相关(P=—0. 847,P<0. 01), IL 17的水平与KL分级无相关性(r = 0.050,P= 0.545)。结论 IL 17可反应膝骨关节炎患者疼痛程度及功能损伤程度，但不能反映疾病的X线严重程度。 IL 17可作为一个生化指标反应膝关节炎疼痛程度及膝关节功能，临床通过减少关节滑液中IL 17,可能会减轻膝骨关 节炎患者的临床症状。     

The prognostic role of tumour‐infiltrating lymphocytes in oral squamous cell carcinoma: A meta‐analysis

It has been suggested that tumour‐infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) are associated with the progression of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). However, the prognostic value of TILs is inconclusive due to the heterogeneity of immune cells within the tumour microenvironment. In this meta‐analysis, we aimed to assess the prognostic value of TILs in OSCC. The PubMed, Cochrane, Embase, Scopus and Web of Science databases were searched up to April 20, 2019, and 33 studies were ultimately included in this meta‐analysis. Our pooled meta‐analysis showed that high infiltration of CD8⁺ TILs, CD45RO⁺ TILs and CD57⁺ TILs favoured better overall survival (OS). However, high infiltration of CD68⁺ macrophages and CD163⁺ macrophages was associated with poor prognosis in OSCC. These findings suggest that CD8⁺ TILs, CD45RO⁺ TILs, CD57⁺ TILs, CD68⁺ macrophages and CD163⁺ macrophages might serve as novel prognostic factors and therapeutic targets in OSCC.     

Prognostic factors for surgical resection in patients with multidrug-resistant tuberculosis.

Although surgical lung resection could improve prognosis in some patients with multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB), there are no reports on the optimal candidates for this surgery. The aim of the present study was to elucidate the prognostic factors for surgery in patients with MDR-TB. Patients who underwent lung resection for the treatment of MDR-TB between March 1993 and December 2004 were included in the present study. Treatment failure was defined as greater than or equal to two of the five cultures recorded in the final 12 months of treatment being positive, any one of the final three cultures being positive, or the patient having died during treatment. The variables that affected treatment outcomes were identified through univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis. In total, 79 patients with MDR-TB were included in the present study. The treatment outcomes of 22 (27.8%) patients were classified as failure. A body mass index <18.5 kg x m(-2), primary resistance, resistance to ofloxacin and the presence of a cavitary lesion beyond the range of the surgical resection were associated with treatment failure. Low body mass index, primary resistance, resistance to ofloxacin and cavitary lesions beyond the range of resection are possible poor prognostic factors for surgical lung resection in multidrug-resistant tuberculosis patients.     

Neprilysin基因在大鼠体外培养骨髓基质细胞中的表达

目的探讨人Neprilysin基因在小鼠MSCs中的表达情况。方法分离培养小鼠MSCs，采用分子克隆技术构建Neprilysin—pEGFP重组质粒，将此Neprilysin—pEGFP重组质粒用脂质体转染进MSCs中，在荧光倒置显微镜下观察该基因在MSCs中的表达效率。结果经酶切鉴定得到系列正确的重组Neprilysin—pEGFP。Neprilysin可在MSCs中表达且通过脂质体传染的效率是20％。结论获得了表达Neprilysin基因的骨髓基质细胞，为进一步探讨将该细胞用于阿尔茨海默病基因治疗的可能性研究提供了技术基础。
