<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the clinical effect of high-dose gamma globulin pulse therapy for abdominal Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Thirty-three children with abdominal HSP were randomly assigned to dexamethasone group (15 children) and gamma globulin group (18 children). The children in the dexamethasone group were treated with dexamethasone and conventional treatment, and those in the gamma globulin group were treated with high-dose gamma globulin pulse therapy in addition to the conventional treatment. Clinical outcome and recurrence rate were observed in both groups.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Compared with the dexamethasone group, the gamma globulin group had a significantly shorter onset time of rash, a significantly shorter time to complete regression of rash, a significantly shorter time to abdominal pain remission, and a significantly shorter time to disappearance of bloody stool, as well as comparable time to vomiting remission and length of hospital stay. The gamma globulin group had a significantly higher response rate than the dexamethasone group (95% vs 65%; P<0.05) and a significantly lower recurrence rate within 6 months than the dexamethasone group (5.6% vs 33.3%; P<0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>High-dose gamma globulin pulse therapy has a marked clinical effect in the treatment of abdominal HSP. It is safe and reliable and has a low recurrence rate, and therefore, it holds promise for clinical application.</p>

Résumé
The increasing incidence rate of allergic diseases has attracted global attention, and these diseases greatly threaten children′s health. The common pathogenesis of allergic diseases is the specific IgE- or cell-mediated immune response to common inhalant or food allergens. Epidemiological investigation, analysis of fecal flora, and clinical studies all suggest that the development and progression of allergic diseases are closely related to the early disturbance of intestinal flora. Probiotics can regulate intestinal immune response, increase the barrier function of epithelial cells, inhibit the adhesion and colonization of pathogenic bacteria, and thus restore or reconstruct normal intestinal flora. With the increasing understanding of allergic diseases, the effect of probiotics in the prevention and treatment of such diseases will be taken more and more seriously.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To analyze the cause of the postoperative shortening in distal radius fractures and to find treatment strategies to enhance the reduction effect of distal radius fracture and long-term efficacy.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From June 2005 to January 2009, 46 patients with distal radius fractures were treated by surgical operation including 17 males and 29 females,ranging from 27 to 90 years old with an average age of 48 years. All fractures were reduced satisfactory with smooth articular surface. The postoperative radial shortening was analyzed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>All patients were followed-up for 6 to 24 months with an average of 14 months. Among them, 12 patients had radial shortening. The causes of postoperative radial shortening includes: (1) patients older than 60 years; (2) severe osteoporosis; (3) preoperative displacement and comminuted fractures; (4) inappropriate fixation methods; (5) inadequate bone graft; (6) premature load.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The key points to enhance the treatment outcomes include precise judgement of the fracture type and bone quality, sufficient bone graft, firmly fixed after anatomical reduction and an appropriate plan for early loadless functional exercise. Traumatic arthritis may be avoided or delayed if the above-mentioned six causes can be taken into consideration or preventive measures can be taken.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>The study was designed to explore the influence of transfected bone marrow mononuclear cells (BMMNC) transplantation on the hematopoietic cells activity and the recipient mice hematopoietic reconstitution.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The exogenous mFasL-cDNA gene was transferred to Balb/C mouse BMMNC by liposomes. Then the transferred BMMNC was co-cultured with BMMNC from BAC mouse (H-2d x b, male) at a ratio of 0.625 to 1 for 6 days. In the experimental group (the 3rd group), 1 x 10(7) (0.5 ml) mixed viable cells were injected into whole bodily irradiated ((60)Co-r) mice (6 to 8 week old female Balb/C) via the tail vein. The following grafted mice were simultaneously used in the study, the mice transplanted with 0.5 ml of culture medium, the mice transplanted with the mixture of untransferred Balb/C mouse BMMNC and BAC mouse BMMNC, the mice transplanted with the mixture of transferred Balb/C mouse BMMNC and BAC mouse BMMNC and the mice transplanted with Balb/C mouse BMMNC. The hematopoietic reconstitution, the origin of bone marrow cells responsible for the reconstitution, the graft versus host disease (GVHD), the survival rate for the recipient mice were observed after bone marrow transplantation (BMT).</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The counts of leukocytes and platelets in recipient blood of group four on +10 d and +20 d after BMT were higher than those in group three and group two (P < 0.01), but on +30 d after BMT the counts of leukocytes and platelets in recipient blood of group two, group three and group four were at their normal levels. The Y chromosome from donor mice was discovered in BMMNC of recipient mice having survived for over two months after BMT in group two and group three. The survival rate of the recipient mice two mouths after BMT in all groups were 0% for group one, 30% for group two, 80% for group three, and 100% for group four, respectively. The total survival rate of recipient mice in the experimental group was obviously higher than that of group two (P < 0.01). Grade II to III GVHD signs were found on the histology from dead mice after BMT in group three and group two, and the mice having survived for over two months in the group two. Grade I GVHD signs were found on histology from 7 out of 8 mice which survived for over two months after BMT in group three.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>The transplantation of mixed cells into recipient mice made the recipient mice achieve hematopoietic reconstitution from donor BMMNC.</p>
