Retinal neovascularization is a complicated pathophysiological process as a result of imbalance between angiogenic and anti-angiogenic factors. Correct understanding of the signaling pathways,exploring the critical factors involved in retinal angiogenesis, looking for new strategies by reconstructing the new vessels are helpful for knowing the mechanism of the occurrence and development of reitnal neovascularization, which would be good for preventing and treating retinal neovascularization diseases.

Objective To investigate the resistance rate of Helicobacter pylori (Hp) to clarithromycin and its correlation with point mutations in 23S rRNA gene. Methods Hp was cultured from gastric biopsy specimen obtained from 189 patients undergoing upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. The DNA of 11 clarithromycin sensitive Hp and 19 clarithromycin resistant Hp was extracted, and 23S rRNA was amplified and sequenced. Results The rate of clarithromycin resistance in cultured Hp was 29. 2%. Point mutations in 23S rRNA gene were found in 17 clarithromycin resistant Hp strains. The proportion of A to G mutation was 36.8%, G to A of 21.5%, C to T of 15.8%, A to C of 10.5% and T to C of 5.3%. No point mutation in 23S rRNA was detected in other 2 clarithromycin resistant and 11 sensitive Hp strains. Conclusion The resistance to clarithromycin is common in Hp, and point mutations in 23S rRNA gene of Hp are frequent in clarithromycin resistant strains, with most prevalent mutations of A to G and next G to A.

One imported endemic of schistosomiasis occurred in historical non-endemic area in Shayang County in 2006.Through the comprehensive control measures of surveillance,control of infectious sources and health education,the endemic was controlled effectively.

Objective To explore the effect of the association of low molecular heparin and Galectin-3 on the cell migration and cell proliferation of vascular endothelial cell from mesenchymal stem cells.Methods Depending on the administration, this study was divided into four groups: low molecular weight heparin group, adding 20 mg/L low molecular weight heparin into the cells;Galectin-3 group, adding 5 mg/L Galectin-3 into the cells;combination group, adding 20 mg/L low molecular weight heparin and 5 μg/ml of Galectin-3 into the cells;control group, equal volume of PBS buffer into the cells.The proliferation of vascular endothelial cell was to be detected by EdU incorporation,the cell growth cycle of vascular endothelial cell was to be detected by flow cytometry,and the cell migration of vascular endothelial cell was to be detected by scrath test.Then to investigate the effect of different conditions on the migration and proliferation of vascular endothelial cell.Results The OD490 of MWH group, Galectin-3 group, combined group and control group were (0.285±0.018), (0.297±0.041), (0.351±0.016), and (0.233±0.005) respectively, which indicates that the combined group could increase the cell proliferation significantly(P<0.05).Cultured for 24 hours, the cell migration rate was(42.02±7.62), (45.82±3.96), (68.53±11.22),and (34.21±3.99), suggesting that combined group have the largest cell migration(P<0.05).Conclusion The association of low molecular heparin and Galectin-3 could improve the cell migration and cell proliferation of vascular endothelial cell from esenchymal stemcells significantly.

ObjectiveTo investigate the influence of r egional wall motion abnormality(RWMA) on cardiac anatomic structure with coronary artery disease (CAD) and to recognize serious degree of the disease by echocardiography. MethodsA total of 125 cases was observed. There were 63 patients in CAD group (41 cases with general CAD,7 cases with acute myocardial infarction and 15 cases with old myocardial infarction). All the patients had undergone respectively CABG,PTCA and stent,coronary angiography or radionuclide scan for confirmation. There were 62 cases in normal control group. Using 2D echocardiography,stand short and long axis images of left ventricle(LV) were chosen. Displayed RWMA to compose the centripetal disharmonized motion with whole-wall of LV,and the discentripetal contradiction motion. M mode for continuous scan was to detect the typical characterisitic of RWMA. ResultsSingle-occurring RWMA from 43 cases ( 68.2 %) in 63 cases with CAD was displayed, while multiple-occurring RWMA from another 20 cases ( 31.8 %) was displayed(P

Objective To observe the application of dysphagia ventilation swallowing and speaking valve inchildren with swallowing disorder after tracheostomy.Methods Four children with tracheostomy done and swallowing disorders(3 with brainstem encephalitis caused by hand,foot and mouth disease and 1 post-surgery case of cerebellar astrocytoma)were observed.Videofluoroscopic swallowing studies(VFSS)showed cricopharyngeal achalasia and silent aspiration.After VFSS assessments,ventilation swallowing and speaking valves(Passy-Muir,USA,PMVs)were applied to the 4 children.After that they received comprehensive swallowing trainings including balloon dilatation,breathing exercises,sensory stimulation and electrical stimulation.Results Four children could pronounce with PMVs immediately.After(36.50 ± 35.63)d of comprehensive intervention,all of them could live without tracheostomy tube or nasal feeding tube,their swallowing function improved obviously and could take food per os.Conclusions The application of PMVs combining with swallowing training is effective for children with swallowing disorder and dysphonia after tracheostomy.It is helpful to decrease the risk of aspiration,to open the cricopharyngeus muscle and to restore pronunciation.

Based on previous results of 16S rDNA sequence homologuous and results of physic-biochemical indexes and morphological characteristics in the present work, bacterial strain ge15 isolated from roots of ginseng plants was identified as Stenotrophomonas rhizophila. Confronting incubation results showed that, strain ge15 inhibited the growth of Alternaria panax, Phytophthora cactorum, and Cylindrocapon destructans significantly, and the width of inhibition zone was 13.3, 24.0, 12.0 mm, respectively. Further results showed that the emergence rate and seedling survive rate of ge15 treatment was significantly higher than those of the control, and which was similar to pesticide carbendazol treatment. The ge15 strain has good application potential in ginseng diseases control without contamination.
