Objective To explore the value of human epididymis protein 4(HE4),cancer antigen 125(CA125) and the risk of ovarian malignancy algorithm(ROMA) in the diagnosis of ovarian cancer.Methods Electrochemical luminescence and Enzymelinked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were used to determine the levels of serum HE4,CA125 in 56 patients with ovarian carcinoma,73 cases of ovarian benign tumor and 50 health women,and the ROMA was calculated by HE4 and CA125 levels depending on the menopause state,drawing the receiver operating characteristics(ROC) curve and calculating the area under the curve(AUC).Results The average levels of the HE4,CA125 and the value of the ROMA were (345.33±605.03)pmol/L,(701.46±1 500.30) U/mL,(58.72±31.00) ％ in the ovarian carcinoma group,(53.84± 14.68)pmol/L,(44.25±45.81)U/mL,(10.80± 6.75) ％ in the ovarian benign tumor group,and (46.03±10.26)pmol/L,(17.39±10.64)U/mL,(6.92±3.85)％ in the health control group respectively,compared with the benign tumor group and the health control group,the ovarian carcinoma group were higher in HE4,CA125 and the ROMA value,and the difference were significantly (P＜0.05),whereas compared in the ovarian benign group and the health group,except the CA125 was higher in the benign group and the difference had statistical significance(P＜0.05),the HE4 level and the value of the ROMA had no statistical significance(P＞0.05).The sensitivities of the HE4,CA125 and ROMA were 71.43％,76.79 ％,89.28％,the specificities were 93.15 ％,53.42％,94.52 ％ and the ROC-AUCs were 0.930,0.809,0.937 respectively.When the specificity for the diagnosis of the ovarian carcinoma was 95.00％,the sensitivities of the HE4,CA125 and ROMA were 80.40％,53.60％,83.90％ respectively.Conclusion HE4 and CA125 combined detection to calculate the ROMA can elevate the sensitivity and specificity for the ovarian carcinoma diagnosis.

[Objective] To investigate the m vitro effect of asiaticoside on the proliferation of and connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) expression by keloid-derived fibroblasts.[Methods] Tissue samples from patients with keloid were obtained for primary culture of fibroblasts.After 3 to 7 passages,the fibroblasts were incubated with different concentrations (100,10,1,0.1,0.01 mg/L) of asiaticoside or dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) for 24,48 and 72 hours followed by the determination of cell viability by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay.Immunohistochemistry and Western blot were carried out to quantify the expression of CTGF in the fibroblasts at 48 hours after treatment with different concentrations of asiaticoside.The morphology of fibroblasts was observed before and after the treatment with asiatieoside.[Results] As morphological observation showed,different concentrations of asiaticoside induced an obvious apoptosis and growth inhibition in fibroblasts.The growth of fibroblasts was suppressed by asiaticoside of 1-100 mg/L in a dose-dependent manner (r =0.95,0.90,0.92 for 24-,48- and 72-hour treatment respectively,all P ＜ 0.01 ),and one-factor analysis of variance revealed statistical differences in the growth inhibition rate in fibroblasts between different treatment durations for each tested concentration of asiaticoside (all P ＜ 0.01 ).There was a strong expression of CTGF in untreated fibroblasts,which was weakened by the treatment with asiaticoside for 48 hours.The number of CTGF-positive fibroblasts per 100 cells was 73 in untreated fibroblasts,significantly higher than that in fibroblasts treated with asiaticoside at 1 mg/L (54,t =4.34,P ＜ 0.01 ) and 10 mg/L (46,t =6.26,P ＜ 0.01 ),and statistical differences were observed between the fibroblasts treated with asiaticoside at 1 mg/L and 10 mg/L (t =1.95,P ＜ 0.05).Western blot also showed that the expression of CTGF was inhibited by 48-hour treatment with asiaticoside,and the inhibitive effect displayed a trend to increase with the rise in the concentration of asiaticoside.[Conclusion] Asiaticoside can effectively inhibit the oroliferation of and CTGF expression by fibroblasts in vitro.

Objective To evaluate pathogens and antimicrobial resistance of pathogens causing refractory pneumonia in children.Methods Children with refractory pneumonia who admitted to a hospital between May 2008 and December 2014 were performed bronchoscopy,and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF)were performed bacterial culture and antimicrobial resistance testing.Results 1 693 patients were recruited in the study,273 bacterial isolates were isolated from BALF speci-mens of 226 children,gram-positive bacteria accounted for 38.10% (104/273 ),the main gram-positive bacteria were Streptococcus pneumoniae (n=71)and Staphylococcus aureus (n=23);gram-negative bacteria accounted for 58.24%(159/273),including 44 isolates of Haemophilus parainfluenzae ,28 Klebsiella pneumoniae ,19 Escherichia coli ,and 17 Pseud-omonas aeruginosa ;10 isolates of fungi were also detected,8 of which were Candida albicans .The sensitivity of Streptococ-cus pneumoniae to quinolones,ceftriaxone and cefotaxime were high.Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) positive rate was 26.32%.ESBLs-producing rate of Haemophilus parainfluenzae and Klebsiella pneumoniae was 32.72% and 62.96% respectively.Conclusion The major pathogens causing refractory pneumonia were Streptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus parainfluenzae ,empirical treatment should be conducted accordingly,antimicrobial resist-ance should be considered if therapeutic effect is poor,and targeted therapy should be performed according to cultured re-sults and antimicrobial susceptibility testing result.

Objective To explore the cultivated methods of dendritic cells (DC) and the killing effect of DC stimulated by CpG ODN1826 on gastritic cancer cells MKN45 in vitro. Methods DC was induced from peripheral blood monocytes stimulated by A group ( GM- CSF + IL-4 ), B group ( GM- CSF + IL-4 + TNF- α), C group(nonCpG ODN) and D group( CpG ODN 1826). The surface markers of DC was analyzed via flow cytometry, and the abilities to stimulate proliferation of allogenic lymphocyte by DC and antitumor experiment were detected by MTT assay. Results On day 10, a majority of cells showed typical morphology of DC in D group and B group with visible branching-like and pseudopod-like structures under microscope. The results of flow cytometry showed that there are significantly high expressed co-stimulated molecules such as CD40, CD1a,CD80, CD86 and MHC- Ⅱ in D group compared to other experimental groups ( P ＜ 0.05 ), which dramatically stimulate the proliferation of allogenic lymphocytes and enhance the killing activity of DC on gastric cancer cells. Conclusion This method can acquire relatively high purified DC, and CpG ODN can significantly induce the differentiation and maturation of DC isolated from peripheral blood and enhance the killing activity of DC on MKN45 by stimulating PBMC in vitro.
