Incidence of Otitis Media with Effusion in Adenoid Hypertrophy with Allergic Rhinitis in Children / 中山大学学报(医学科学版)

Objective]In order to study the impact of adenoid hypertrophy(AH)with allergic rhinitis(AR)in the otitis media with effusion(OME)in children,as well as to discuss the risk factors on the inducement of OME in patients with AH.[Methods]The clinical materials were collected and analyzed from 205 children with AH who admitted for surgical treatment between 2013 and 2015, including medical history and signs,acoustic immittance measurement,allergy screen as well as blood routine,and to evaluate the situation of OME and AR in patients with AH. All the data were analyzed by SPSS 20.0.[Results]Among the 205 AH children,66 cases(32.20%)were accompanying with OME. The AH patients aged 3-5 years had the highest incidence of OME,which decreased with age(P=0.018). It is significant on the prevalence of the OME in patients with AH between the two groups with and without AR (P = 0.010). In the logistic model investigating the risk factors of inducing OME among patients with AH,the third-degree AH, Type-three and the accompanying with AR were significant. The third-degree and third-type AH children were 2.729 and 6.390-folds higher than others respectively (P = 0.047,P = 0.001). The incidence of OME appeared to be 1.212-folds higher among patients with AR(P = 0.010).[Conclusion]Mechanical obstruction and AR played a superimposed role in the inducement of OME among patients with AH,which was effected by multiple factors. We should pay attention to the“lateral respiratory”allergic diseases on eustachian tube and middle ear.

The preparation of recombinant adenovirus Ad-Rad50-GFP and detection of the optimal multiplicity of infection in CNE1 transfected hv Ad-Rad50-GFP / 临床耳鼻咽喉头颈外科杂志

OBJECTIVE@#The optimal multiplicity of infection (MOI) of the recombinant adenovirus Ad-Rad50-GFP carrying a mutant Rad50 gene expression region on the cell growth of nasopharyngeal carcinoma and the viral amplification efficiency of CNE1 cell infected by this adenovirus were studied.@*METHOD@#The biological titer of Ad-Rad50-GFP was measured by end point dilution method. The impact of recombinant adenoviral vector transfection on the growth of CNE1 cells was observed by cell growth curve. Transfection efficacy of recombinant adenoviral vector was observed and calculated through fluorescence microscope. The expression f mutant Rad50 in the Ad-Rad50-GFP transfected CNE1 cells with optimal MOI was detected by Western Blot after transfection.@*RESULT@#The biological titer of Ad-Rad50-GFP was 1.26 x 10¹¹ pfu/ml. CNE1 cell growth was not influenced significantly as they were transfected by recombinant adenoviral vector with MOI less than 50. Transfection efficacy of recombinant adenoviral vector was most salient at 24 hours after transfection, with the high expression of mutant Rad50, and the efficiency still remained about 70% after 72 hours.@*CONCLUSION@#Recombinant adenoviral vector Ad-Rad50-GFP could transfect CNE1 cells as well as result in the expression of mutant Rad50 in CNE1 cells effectively. MOI = 50 was the optimal multiplicity of infection of CNE1 cells transfected by recombinant adenoviral vector Ad-Rad50-GFP.

Integrated CAMVA and BCOP methods to predict eye irritation caused by cosmetics / 中国比较医学杂志

Objective To explore the use of integrated two methods in vitro in prediction of eye irritation caused by cosmetics.Method Chorioallantoic membrane vascular assay ( CAMVA), bovine corneal opacity and permeability (BCOP) and Draize rabbit eye irritation test were used to determine the predictive potential of eye irritation of 60 kinds of cosmetics.Results CAMVA method was able to distinguish 41 non-irritant samples and 18 irritant samples.BCOP method was able to predict 35 non-irritant samples , 21 mild-moderate irritant samples and 4 severe irritant samples . Combination of CAMVA and BCOP methods could obviously improve the identification ability of irritation , and the classification consistency with Draize rabbit eye irritation testing reached 98.3%.Conclusions The integrated test strategy combined BCOP with CAMVA can be used to appropriately predict ocular irritation of cosmetics , with a prediction range covering non-irritant to severe irritant samples .

Correlation between clinic and polysomnographic findings in children with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome / 临床耳鼻咽喉头颈外科杂志

OBJECTIVE@#To evaluate the correlation between the polysomnographic findings and the degree of obstruction caused by adenoid and tonsillar hypertrophy in children with clinical history of apnea.@*METHOD@#Retrospectively studied the children who were diagnosed clinically of, obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) and underwent polysomnography and endoscopy. Patients were divided to OSAHS and non-OSAHS group according to polysomnographic findings.@*RESULT@#Ninety-four children were involved in the study population, and 63 children of them were male. The mean age of the children at the time of inclusion in the study was 6.7 years. 36 children (38.3%) diagnosed OSAHS clinically had normal polysomnographic findings. No differences were found between children with PSG-documented OSAHS and others. Tonsillar and/or adenoid hypertrophy were not correlated to more severe apnea among enrolled children.@*CONCLUSION@#There was no significant correlation between polysomnographic and clinical findings in children with OSAHS.

Apoptosis of active T lymphocytes induced by human laryngocarcinoma cell line / 临床耳鼻咽喉头颈外科杂志

OBJECTIVE@#To observe the expression of Fas receptor and ligand in human laryngocarcinoma cell line, Hep-2 and to investigate the possible mechanism of immune escape through Fas/FasL pathway in Hep-2 cell.@*METHOD@#The mRNA and protein expressions of Fas and FasL in Hep-2 cell were analyzed by RT-PCR and flow cytometry (FCM). Growth curve of Jurkat cell was drawer based on the results of MMT, and apoptosis of Jurkat cell were determined by FCM and Hoechst 33342 staining after coculturing with Hep-2 cell.@*RESULT@#The expressions of Fas and FasL in Hep-2 cell line were evaluated by flow cytometry and the mean fluorescence intensity were (32.91 +/- 5.6) and (25.57 +/- 7.1) respectively. After coincubation with Hep-2 cell (1 X 10(9)/L), the apoptosis rates of Jurkat cells were (38.95 +/- 0.11) % and (13.28 +/- 0.14) %, with planting concentration at 1 x 10(8)/L and 5 x 10 (8)/L respectively. In contrast, the apoptosis rate of Jurkat cultured separately was (7.53 +/- 0.17)%. The proliferation of Jurkat cell was obviously inhibited after coculture. However, the apoptosis rate was significantly decreased after adding neutralizing antibody of FasL.@*CONCLUSION@#Laryngocarcinoma cell could induce apoptosis of T lymphocytes through Fas-FasL system, thus it provided a potential mechanism to escape from immune surveillance of host.
