Amplified in breast cancer 1 ( AIB1 ) plays an important role in the process of gene expression and regulation by combining with nuclear receptor.Aberrant expression of AIB1 has been detected in different types of caners,such as breast cancer,endometrial carcinoma,prostate cancer,esophageal squamous cell carcinoma,colorectal carcinoma,etc.The study of the potential role of AIB1 in the pathogenesis and prognosis will improve our general acknowledge of carcinogenesis.AIB1 may become a new prognostic marker as well as a new therapeutic target.

Objective To evaluate the formation of coronary collateral circulation with intracoronary Doppler ultrasound in pigs after acute occlusion and the influence of nitroglycerin and phentolamine on it.Methods The blood flow spectrun was detected in 14 pigs using intracoronary Doppler ultrasound before and after acute occlusion of the left circumflex artery (LCX) and its response to nitroglycerin and phentolamine.The average peak velocity (APV) and the diastolic systolic velocity ratio (DSVR) were recorded. Results The APV of the LCX decreased significantly at 10 min after acute occlusion (0.97?1.05 vs 25.78?4.36 cm/s,P0.05). Conclusion Intracoronary Doppler ultrasound can be used to evaluate coronary collateral circulation. The formation collateral circulation was insufficient after acute occlusion of coronary artery in pigs and nitroglycerin or phentolamine can improve the blood flow.

In the past few years,it has been disclosed that identified epigenetic processes and epigenetic changes are involved in human diseases.Disorders of these processes may influence chromatin structure and gene expression,which may result in complicated syndroms,multiple-factor diseases and cancers. The researchprogress of epigenetic processes of several diseases is reviewed in this paper.

HIFU treatment allows the destruction of a precise volume of tissue within an tumour without harming surrounding structures.The FEP-BY02 model is one of commercially available machines based on this technique,which is proved effectively in clinical practice.It's basic architecture,functional principle and some suggestions for safety use are introduced in this paper.

After introducing the predominance and status of remote maintenance,the paper lays emphasis on analyzing its application in medical equipment and problems to be solved in the development.Besides,the developing trend of remote maintenance is forecasted.Remote maintenance is one of the development directions for medical equipment maintenance support.

Objective To construct DNA vaccine containing MOMP gene of Chlamydia trachomatis and to observe immune response in mice. Methods Mice of 4 - 6 weeks old were immunized with pcDNA3.1-MOMP or pcDNA3.1 intramuscularly at a dose of 100 μg. Booster immunizations were employed at 2-week interval for two times. Specific antibody in the sera of mice and the level of IFN-γ in murine spleen lymphocyte supernatant were detected by ELISA. The proliferation response of spleen cells was detected by MTT assay. Results Significant specific antibody titers were observed and the highest titer was 1: 1 024 in mice after three times immunization with pcDNA3.1-MOMP. The proli-feration response of spleen cells were significantly higher than that of mice injected with pc DNA3.1. IFN-γ reached(532.0 + 45.4)pg/mL in immunized mice. Conclusion Strong responses of humoral and cellular immunity can be evoked by DNA vaccine of pcDNA3.1-MOMP in mice.

Objective To develop a database management system specially applied for medical equipment maintenance administration, Methods Under PowerBuiider/SQL Server development environment, the C/S mode system structure was confirmed and the system function modules were designed. Results The application of C/S mode structure was coincident with the division-cooperation work flow in large and medium hospitals, and the design of function modules met the demand of information collection and utilization of medical equipment maintenance.Conclusion The database management system can preserve the information of medical equipment maintenance effectively and facilitate its usage. Moreover, many statistical indexes about the maintenance administration are available in this system.

Objective To comparisom five methods of detection of eosinophil cells,in order to analyze the precision of the five methods.Methods The eosinophil cells of 100 patients were tested by using microscope、BC T5difft and flow cytometry are(0.249 ±0.112) × 109/L,(0.253 ±0.105) × 109/L,(0.252 ±0.103) × 109/L,(0.256 ±0.104) × 109/L and(0.259 ±0.101) × 109/L.There are no statistical differences(F = 1.225,P＞0.10)among the five methods.Conclusion The results of the five methods are all accurate;the automatic analyzer method and the flow cytometry method are simple and repeatable,but the equipment and reagents are more expensive;the microscope direct counting method is more complicated and less repeatable.

Objective To construct the recombinant plasmid containing the major outer membrane protein(MOMP) gene of Chlamydia trachomatis and expres s MOMP protein in E.coli BL21. Methods The MOMP gene was amplified by polymera se chain reaction from the genome of Chlamydia trachomatis serovar D. The amplif ied fragment was directly inserted into pUCm-T vector and verified by DNA sequen cing. MOMP gene was then subcloned into the prokaryotic expression vector pET-22 b(+). The recombinant protein of MOMP was purified by Ni-NTA affinity chromatogr aphy and identified by SDS-PAGE and Western blot. Results The MOMP gene, which is about 1 200 bp, was successfully amplified and cloned. The DNA sequence of t he cloned MOMP gene was the same as that published by the GenBank. SDS-PAGE anal ysis showed that the relative molecular weight of this fusion protein was about 47 kDa which was consistent with the theoretically predicted value, and the spec ificity of this recombinant protein was confirmed by Western blot. Conclusions The MOMP gene of Chlamydia trachomatis was successfully cloned and expressed in the prokaryotic expression system, which may lay the foundation for the developm ent of Chlamydia trachomatis vaccine.

Objective China is experiencing increasing disease burden and economic burden of acute myocardial infarction(AMI),while the healthcare resources are limited and unevenly distributed.Hospitalization duration is an important measure of health resource utilization index.This study aims to describe the time trend of Length of stay(LOS) for AMI inpatient care in eastern urban areas of China,and to identify potential hospital-level factors associated with the LOS,which is an important indicator of resource utilization.Methods The study randomly selected a representative sample of patients admitted for AMI in 2001,2006 and 2011,from urban hospitals in eastern China.After central data abstraction from medical records,patients' characteristics,treatments and outcomes were compared between 3 hospital groups that were divided according to their median of LOS.Results Five thousand and forty-seven AMI cases were included in the analyses.The average LOS were (15.3±10.2),(13.5±8.7) and (12.2±7.8) d in 2001,2006 and 2011 respectively,with a decreasing trend(F=10.93,P<0.001).After adjusted for patients' characteristics,there were no significant different in LOS between years.Patients' characteristics were similar between high-,middle-and low-LOS hospitals,however,in high-LOS hospitals,use rates of aspirin,clopidogrel and statins were even lower(P≤0.001).LOS were longer 1.9 d in the hospitals with relatively small AMI inpatient treatment volumes(30-80 annually,t=2.97,P<0.01).Conclusions The average LOS for AMI in eastern urban areas of China is much longer than in western countries.Conclusion between hospitals have highlighted the gaps in care quality and efficiency.Standardized clinical pathways and hierarchical medical system are essential strategies in the new healthcare reform.
