Ferritin is a polymeric protein composed of different ferritin subunits to store iron in the human body.It is involved in maintaining iron balance inside and outside the cell.Iron balance is disrupted by internal and external factors after infection.Studies have shown that ferritin is significantly elevated during infection and may affect the prognosis of the disease.However, due to insufficient understanding of ferritin, the study on ferritin is rarely in the clinic.This article aims to review the relationship between serum ferritin and infection from the aspects of the ferritin cycle, iron disturbance during infection, prediction, and prognosis of serum ferritin in infectious diseases, and provide a reference for further research.

Cell-free hemoglobin refers to the rupture of erythrocyte membrane due to instability of erythrocyte membrane caused by various causes, and hemoglobin is released free in the plasma.High concentration of plasma cell-free hemoglobin can cause intracellulariron ion deposition, oxidative damage, damage of lung, kidney and other related tissue, and seriously affect the treatment and prognosis of patients with sepsis.Nuclear factor E2-related factor 2(NRF2) as an antioxidant cytokine at the same time, plays important roles in the process of adjusting the resistance to oxidative stress, but the mechanism is not thorough.This review summarized the sepsis cell-free hemoglobin production, metabolism, and the activation of NRF2 and antioxidant mechanisms, to provide reference for further research.

Objective:To investigate the therapeutic effects of small peptide,alkaloid,total flavonoids and polysaccharides extracted from sunflower plate powder on the hyperuricemia in the mice,and to clarify that the influence of sunflower powder in the uric acid(UA)level and joint swelling and its protective effect on the liver and kidney tissues.Methods:A total of 96 male Kunming rats were randomly divided into 8 groups,each group of 12 rats.One group was used as blank control group,the others were used to set up hyperuricemia models.The successful mouse models of hyperuricemia were randomly divided into model group and positive control group (allopurinol group),small molecule peptide group,alkaloi group,total flavone group,polysaccharide group and sunflower disk group.The serum UA levels were measured 7 d after administration and the liver and kidney tissues of the mice in various groups were taken.The morphological changes of liver and kidney tissues were observed by HE staining.Acute gouty arthritis model was established by injecting 3 mg sodium urate into the knee joint of the male SD rats.The experiment was divided into blank group,model group,positive control colchicine group, sunflower disc extracts(SDE)group with different concentrations(0%,20%,40%,60%,80% and 100%), 4 rats in each group.The joint circumference was measured at 0,12,24 and 48 h,respectively.The serum levels of interleukin-10(IL-10)and macrophage inflammatory protein-1α(MIP-1α)were detected by ELISA kit. Results:Compared with model group,the serum UA levels of the mice in allopurinol group,small molecule peptide group,alkaloid group,total flavonoids group and sunflower group were significantly decreased after administration (P<0.05);and the serum UA level in allopurinol group was decreased the most,followed by small molecule peptide group.The HE staining results showed that the hepatocytes in small molecule peptide group were clear, the hepatocytes had full cytoplasm,and no abnormality was observed in the kidney cells compared with blank control group.After 48 h injection of sodium urate,the degree of joint swelling was reduced by up to 27.1% in SDE group compared with model group.Compared with model group,the serum IL-10 level in 20% SDE group was significantly increased(P<0.01),and the serum MIP-1α level was also significantly increased(P<0.01). Conclusion:Sunflower powder can reduce the UA level and has protective effect on the liver and kidney tissues and it can improve the body's anti-inflammatory activity and reduce the body's inflammatory response to achieve anti-gout arthritis activity.

Objective To explore effects of psychological stress and social support on quality of life of patients with ulcerative colitis (UC ) .Methods From February 2017 to February 2018 ,at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University ,the data of 167 patients with UC were collected ,which included education levels ,monthly per capita income of the family ,course of the disease ,Mayo score and Montreal classification .Psychological stress was evaluated by perceived stress scale (PSS) .Social support was assessed by social support rate scale (SSRS) .Quality of life was measured by the inflammatory bowel disease questionnaire (IBDQ) .Chi square test was performed for univariate correlation analysis ,Pearson or Spearman correlation analysis was performed for the correlationship ,and two classification logistic regression method was used for multivariate analysis .Results The PSS score was 23 (19 ,31) ,and the SSRS score was 33 .0 (29 .0 ,37 .0) ,and the IBDQ score was 168 .0(154 .0 ,183 .0) .The PSS score was negatively correlated with IBDQ scores (r= -0 .590 ,P<0 .01) .SSRS score were positively correlated with the IBDQ score (r=0 .329 ,P<0 .01) .The results of univariate correlation analysis indicated that the quality of life was higher in patients with high education ,high monthly per capita income of the family , high medical insurance reimbarsement rate ,clinical remission period and mild active period (χ2 =4 .338 , 12 .311 ,9 .896 and 25 .159 ,all P<0 .05) .The results of multivariate analysis demonstrated that quality of life of patients with UC was correlated with psychological stress (odds ratio (OR)= 0 .871 ,95% confidence interval (CI) 0 .815 to 0 .932) ,type of medical insurance (OR= 2 .024 ,95% CI 1 .168 to 3 .507) ,social support (OR=1 .065 ,95% CI 1 .002 to 1 .132) and clinical disease activity (OR=0 .362 , 95% CI 0 .193 to 0 .679) (all P<0 .05) .Conclusion The quality of life of patients with UC is not only correlated with clinical activity of the disease ,but also correlated with psychological stress ,social support and type of medical insurance .

Objective To analyze colonoscopic appearances,computed tomography (CT) imaging features and their correlation with postoperative pathology in patients with colorectal high grade intraepithelial neoplasia (HGIN) diagnosed by colonoscopic biopsy.Methods From October 2009 to October 2015,patients diagnosed as colorectal HGIN by colonoscopic biopsy who received endoscopic resection or operation,and had complete postoperative pathological data were enrolled.The results of CT imaging before operation,postoperative pathological type,the maximum diameter of lesions,sessile lesions or pedunculated lesions and enlarged lymph nodes were analyzed.Chi-square test were performed for statistical analysis.Sensitivity and specificity of CT imaging before operation in the detection of invasive colorectal cancer were calculated.Results Among the 76 patients,21.1% (16/76) patients were HGIN,and 78.9% (60/76) were invasive cancer confirmed by postoperative pathology.The incidence rate of invasive carcinoma in patients aged ≤50 years (3/14) was significantly lower than that of patients aged >50 years (91.9%,57/62),and the difference was statistically significant (x2 =30.05,P<0.01).The incidence rate of invasive carcinoma in protruding lesions with maximum diameter ≥ 3.0 cm was 98.3% (57/58),which was higher than that of lesions with maximum diameter <3.0 cm(2/16),and the difference was statistically significant (x2 =51.91,P<0.01).The incidence rate of invasive carcinoma in pedicle polyps group (2/13) was lower than that of sessile lesions (93.4%,57/61),and the difference was statistically significant (x2 =35.72,P<0.01).The sensitivity and specificity of CT in the diagnosis of invasive colorectal cancer was 95.0% and 84.6%,respectively.The incidence rate of invasive carcinoma in patients with enlarged lymph nodes detected by CT (93.3 %,42/45) was significantly higher than that of patients without enlarged lymph nodes (64.3%,18/28),and the difference was statistically significant (x2=9.95,P =0.002).Conclusions CT examination can compensate for the diagnostic deficiency of colonoscopic biopsy which inadequately diagnosed some invasive carcinoma as HGIN.The incidence of invasive cancer is high in patients with age over 50 years,large lesions,sessile lesions,CT indicating colorectal neoplasms and with enlarged lymph nodes.
