Objective To evaluate the expressions of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α(HIF-1α),vescular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)and survivin in developing colorectal cancer,and the association among them.Methods The protein expressions of HIF-1α,VEGF and survivin were detected in specimens obtained from 69 patients with colorectal cancer and 20 normal controls by immunohistochemistry.The correlations of HIF-1α,VEGF and survivin with clinicopathologic features were analyzed.Results The expression of HIF-1α,VEGF and survivin proteins in patients with colorectal cancer were 56.52%,66.67% and 46.38%,respectively,and little expressed in normal controls(P＜0.01).The expressions of HIF-1α,VEGF and survivin were closely related to the differential grade of adenocarcinoma,he in volvment of penetration,lymph node metastasis and Dukes stage(P＜0.05).In addition,HIF-1α protein expression had positive correlations with both VEGF and survivin(P＜0.05),and the expression ofVEGF also had positive correlation with survivin(P＜0.05).Conclusions HIF-1α may involve in thepathogenesis of colorectal cancer through up regulating the expressions of VEGF and survivin,which mayhave synergetic effects in the pathogenesis of colorectal cancer.

Objective To explore the impact of TIMP 3 regulated by miR-181b as a target gene on invasion and migration of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in vitro.Methods The expressions of miR-181b were detected using SYBR Green real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction on liver cancer specimens and on HCC cell lines.The protein expression of TIMP 3 in HCC was detected using westen blot,and SKHep-1 as a cell line expressing high miR-181b was chosen through reporter gene experiment.TIMP-3 as a target gene regulated by miR-181b and its effect on invasion and migration treated by anti-miR-181 b were studied using transwell and cell scarification test,respectively.Results The expression of miR-181b in HCC was higher than cancer-adjacent tissues and normal liver tissues.The differences among them were significant.There was a correlation between the high expression of miR-181b and invasiveness and metastasis in HCC.The protein expression of TIMP-3 in HCC was significantly lower than normal liver tissues and cancer-adjacent tissues.Expression of miR-181b mRNA was detected in various HCC cell lines such as Hep3B,HepG2,Huh 7,SKHep-1,SNU182,SNU449 and hepatocyte,with the expression of miR-181b in SKHep-1 being the highest (P＜0.01).TIMP3-3UTR was low when the expression of miR-181b was high (P＜0.05).The invasion and migration abilities of SKHep-1 were significantly inhibited by anti-miR-181b (P＜0.05).Conclusion The data suggested that miR-181b promoted invasion and migration of SKHep-1 by down-regulating TIMP-3 in HCC.

OBJECTIVE To find out epidemiological features of fulminant Acinetobacter baumannii nosocomial infection in cardiac SICU and the ways to prevent and treat this nosocomial infection. METHODS The case histories from 5 inpatients who developed A.baumannii nosocomial infection in cardiac SICU from July 8 to 26,2004 were studied retrospectively to find out the reasons of the epidemia and treatments based on the sputum culture results. RESULTS These 5 inpatients developed lower respiratory tract infection on top of their original severe disease.Within 15 days,their sputum cultures were positive for A.baumannii,4 of them recovered but one died. CONCLUSIONS The inpatients got the same nosocomial infection within the same period because of lowered resistance owing to unreasonable layout of cardiac SICU,their original weakness is due to various invasive operation like long duration mechanical ventilation,lack of isolation and sterilization,etc.

Objective To analyse the effect of specimen storage time on platelet count in apheresis Donors,in order to choose the appropriate testing time.Methods We choose fifty healthy Unpaid Blood Donors of Platelets to test platelet count in 0,0.5,1,3,6h respectively by the blood counting instrument.Results At room temperature,the count of platelets from blood samples is relatively lower at 0 hour and the difference is significant (P ＜ 0.05).After 0.5-6 hours,the count of platelets become stabilized and not has significantly different(P＞0.05).Conclusion The count of platelets of blood samples is lower at 0 hour than 0.5-6 hours,this work suggest that the count of platelets of blood samples should be done at 0.5-6 h in order to protect platelets quality.

ObjectiveTo investigate synergistic effect of donor livers blocked by recipient blood serum (RS) and cobra venom factor (CVF) treatment to inhibit hyperacute rejection (HAR) happened in liver xenotransplantation.MethodsThe SD rat blood serum was prepared for pre-perfusing the donor livers before experiment.24 pairs of guinea-pig (GP) and Sprague-Dawley (S.D.) rats were choiced respectively and pair-matched between GP donor and rat recipient randomly.Before transplantation,donor livers of GPs were pre-perfused by 0.5％ SD rat serum.Paired animals were divided into 4 groups randomly such as donor liver perfused by RS,recipient treated by CVF,RS+ CVF performed and Ringer solution as a control.The orthotopic liver xenotransplantations was performed with two-cuff technique.The survival time and liver function of recipients,morphological and pathological changes of rat livers were observed.ResultsThere was no piebaldism change on the recipient liver from experimental group.The survival time of recipients from RS+CVF group [(161.5±30.9) min]was longer than that of control[(45.2 ± 13.9) min] and CVF[(125.2 ± 25.5) min] or RS groups [(88.1±19.7) min] (P＜0.05).The ALT in serum of recipients from RS+CVF [(63.2±13.9)U/L]was lower than that from congtrol group [(126.1±23.3)U/L](P＜0.01) and CVF group [(79.9±18.1)U/L](P＜0.05) or RS group [(106.1±19.3)U/L](P＜0.01) The histological damages including thrombosis,interstitial bleeding and edema of recipient liver from RS+CVF group were alleviated markebly than that of other groups (P＜0.05).ConclusionThere was a synergistic effect to inhibit HAR happened in liver xenotransplantation by blocking the donor liver with recipient blood serum and CVF treatment significantly.

Pulse wave velocity (PWV) is a vital index of the cardiovascular pathology, so that the accurate measurement of PWV can be of benefit for prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. The noise in the measure system of pulse wave signal, rounding error and selection of the recording site all cause errors in the measure result. In this paper, with wavelet transformation to eliminate the noise and to raise the precision, and with the choice of the point whose slope was maximum as the recording site of the reconstructing pulse wave, the measuring system accuracy was improved.
