Objective:Apoptosis inhibitor 6(Api6),also known as AIM(Apoptosis Inhibitor expressed by Macrophage)or SP?(Soluble Protein alpha),is a newly defined member of the group B scavenger receptor cysteine-rich(SRCR)superfamily.Previous studies have suggested its important roles in immune system regulation,but the involvement of Api6 in lipid metabolism is seldomly studied.Methods:The aim of this study was to define the expression pattern of Api6 in lipid loading and inflammatory macrophages.The human monocyte/macrophage lineage THP-1 cells and murine Raw264.7 macrophages were incubated in the presence of 100 ?g/ml oxidized low-density lipoprotein(oxLDL)alone,LDL plus 200 ng/ml lipopolysaccharide(LPS)and LPS alone.Results:Foam cell formation after treatment was evidenced by oil red O staining.Real-time PCR results showed that after LPS or oxLDL treatment,the mRNA levels of Scavenger receptor SRA were increased 6-fold,2.5-fold and 6-fold,44-fold in Raw264.7 cells and THP-1 cellls respectively,but the expression of Api6 in Raw264.7 did not change.The mRNA levels of Api6 increased 2.7-fold after LPS and oxLDL treatment in THP-1 cells.Conclusion:The expression levels of Api6 in these macrophages were highly related to the presence of nuclear receptor liver X receptor(LXR)isoform LXR?.This study revealed that due to the lack of LXR? isoform,the basic expression level of Api6 was low in Raw264.7 macrophages,that makes it an ideal cell line for further study related to pathophysiological function of Api6 in lipid metabolism.

Exhaled nitric oxide fraction (FeNO)reflects eosinophilic bronchial inflammation,and has been widely used to assist in the diagnosis of asthma,to monitor the airway inflammation and the responce to treatment effects of asthma in recent years.FeNO as a noninvasive examination,obtains a high degree of cooperation in adults and children over 5 years of age,but there are a lot of problems in children under 5 years of age.At present,there is still a lack of normal values and large sample-sized studies of FeNO in infants and neonates in China.The principle and method,normal reference value,influencing factors,clinical application and so on of exhaled nitric oxide detection are reviewed in this paper.

Objective To investigate the relationship between plasma N-terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP) level and left ventricular(LV) diastolic dysfunction in hypertensive patients without systolic dysfunction.Methods Forty-four cases of primary hypertensive patients with left ventricular ejection fraction more than 50％ were enrolled,14 cases in normal diastolic function group,30 cases in diastolic dysfunction group(18 cases in delayed relaxation group and 12 cases in pseudo normalization filling group).LV diastolic function was assessed with conventional Doppler by means of mitral inflow and with tissue Doppler echocardiography by means of mitral annulus.The ratio of early diastolic transmitral E wave velocities to tissue Doppler mitral annulus early diastolic E' wave velocities (E/E') was used to detect LV filling pressures.Patients were divided into three groups according to E/E' ratios.Plasma concentrations of NT-proBNP were also measured.All related data were statistically analyzed.Results The levels of NT-proBNP were (115.2 ± 78.9)ng/L in LV diastolic dysfunction group,(34.7 ± 17.5) ng/L in normal filling group and (206.6 ± 75.8) ng/L in pseudonormal filling group.The level of NT-proBNP significantly elevated (F =85.263,P =0.000) along with the severity of lefi ventricular diastolic dysfunction.There was significant difference between each of the two groups among the three groups(all P ＜0.01).According to E/E' ratios,the patients were divided into three groups:E/E' ＜10(n =16),10 ＜ E/E ＜ 15(n =18),E/E' ＞ 15(n =10).The level of NT-proBNP were (39.5 ± 20.1) ng/L,(71.2 ± 26.4) ng/L and (203.7 ± 75.2) ng/L respectively in the three groups.The NT-proBNP blood level was positively correlated significantly with E/E' ratio (r =0.80,P ＜ 0.01).The sensitivity was 87％ and the specificity was 100％ for diagnosis of left ventricular filling pressure (E/E' ＞ 15)according to a NT-proBNP value of 119 ng/L.Conclusion Combining of plasma NT-proBNP and Doppler E/E'have potential value for identification of those patients with hypertension to detect early cardiovascular changes,especially LV diastolic dysfunction.

OBJECTIVE: To discuss advances in intrahepatic and intrabiliary stent application and evaluate their biocompatibility.METHODS: A computer-based online search of CNKI between 1989 and 2009 was performed to search related articles with the keywords of "bile duct, hepatic duct, stent, treatment". A total of 51 articles were searched and 20 were included according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. The articles were summarized from aspects of treatment advances in intrahepatic and intrabiliary stent application and prevention of obstruction following intrahepatic and intrabiliary stenting; the clinical application of intrahepatic and intrabiliary stent, biocompatibility and prevention of stent obstruction were discussed.RESULTS: Intrabiliary stent mainly includes metal stent and plastic stent. The metal stent is superior over plastic stent in preventing bacteria and keeping stent patency, but its cost is large. The plastic stent is easy for bacteria attachment and stent obstruction, but it is simple to change the stent and the cost is low. Intrabiliary stent implantation is the best method to treat malignant obstruction of bile duct with few complications. Intrahepatic stent in combination with various radiotherapies can prolong effective patent time of the stent and effectively prevent stent obstruction. CONCLUSION: Intrabiliary stent implantation is the most effective clinical method to treat malignant obstruction of bile duct.However, the biocompatibility of various intrabiliary stents should be improved. Intrahepatic stent in combination with radiotherapies can prevent stent obstruction.

Objective To investigate incidence and severity of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP)screened by RetcamⅢ and the related factors.Comparative case series were designed.Methods A study was performed among infants who required screening by RetcamⅢ in the second Affiliated Hospital & Yuying Children's Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University,and carried out between May 2012 and April 2013.A total of 1097 infants met the study criteria,and were divided into group Ⅰ (n =333 from outpatient screening) and group Ⅱ (n =764 from inpatient screening).Variables were recorded,including birth weight (BW),gestational age (GA),number of births (NOB,singleton/twins/triplets),gender,neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (NRDS),patent ductus arteriosus (PDA),neonatal asphyxia,neonatal hyperbilirubinemia,intracranial hemorrhage,congenital heart disease,neonatal anemia,neonatal sepsis,necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC),and bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD).The results of ophthalmological examinations by RetcamⅢ were also recorded.Spearman correlation analysis was used to identify the variables most significantly associated with ROP.Results There were 98 infants of ROP in group Ⅱ (total 764,12.8％).There was a significant association of ROP with variables (P ＜0.05),including BW,GA,and NOB.There was a significant association of ROP with diseases (P ＜ 0.05),including NRDS,neonatal asphyxia,intracranial hemorrhage,neonatal anemia,neonatal sepsis,NEC,and BPD.However,there was no association of ROP with diseases (P ＞ 0.05),including PDA,neonatal hyperbilirubinemia,and congenital heart disease.Conclusions RetcamⅢ can be used to screen retina of infants.ROP is still the most common eye disease in preterm infants.The incidence of ROP was 12.83％ in Wenzhou.Variables,including BW,GA,NOB,NRDS,neonatal asphyxia,intracranial hemorrhage,neonatal anemia,neonatal sepsis,NEC,and BPD,were the most significant factors associated with ROP.

Mycoplasma, Chlamydia, Rickettsia, Spirochetes and Actinobacteria were generally called "four pathogens and one bacterium". It was always difficult to be denominated and classified rightly in textbooks, while it was also a key interfering with students to grasp the concept of bacteria exactly. So we raise the question and hope to learn from each other by an exchange of views here.

Objective To investigate the effect of transverse incision surgery for epicanthoplasty with double eyelid fold reconstruction. Design Retrospective case series. Participants 103 patients with epicanthus. Method Transverse incision was applied for epicanthoplasty in all patients, and incorporated with double eyelid fold reconstruction. Patients were followed up 3-6 months. Main Outcome Measures Size of lacrimal caruncle, length of palpebral fissure, inner canthic diameter and scarring degree. Results Lacrimal caruncle was revealed 3/4 merous in 21 cases, 2/3 merous in 56 cases, 1/2 merous in 8 cases. Extent of palpebral fissure was 30-31mm in 5 cases, 28-29 mm in 69 cases, 26-27 mm in 11 cases. Inner canthic diameter was 32-33mm in 61 cases, 30-31 mm in 23 cases, 29 mm in 1 case. The scarring was little in 56 cases, obviously in 29 cases. Epicanthus relapsed in 2 cases. 16 cases lost follow-up. Conclusion Transverse incision surgery for epicanthoplasty with double eyelid fold reconstruction has less tissue damage and minimal scarring produced at the medial cantha. It is a simple and reliable surgical approach for correction of epicanthus.
