METHODS:150 senile patients with atrophic vag-initis were selected and divided into group A,B,C according to random number table,with 50 cases in each group. Group A was given Lactobacillus vaginal capsules,2 capsules,qd (at bedtime);group B given Chlorquinaldol-promestriene vaginal tablets,1 tablet,qd(at bedtime);group C given Chlorquinaldol-promestriene vaginal tablets,1 tablet,qd(at bedtime),and Lactobacillus vaginal capsules,2 capsules,qd,next morning,implanting into vagina. 3 groups received treatment for 18 d. Clinical efficacy, vaginal health score,vaginal symptom score and vaginal pH value were observed in 3 groups,and the occurrence of ADR and re-currence rate during follow-up period (12 months) were recorded. RESULTS:The total effective rate of group C was 94.00%, which was significantly higher than group A(72.00%)and B(74.00%),with statistical significance(P<0.05). Before treatment, there was no statistical significance in vaginal health score,vaginal symptom score and vaginal pH value among 3 groups (P>0.05). After treatment,vaginal health score of 3 groups were increased significantly,while vaginal symptom score and vaginal pH value were decreased significantly;and the improvement of above indexes in group C were significantly better than in group A and B,with statistical significance(P<0.05). No obvious ADR was found in 3 groups during treatment. The recurrence rate of group C during follow-up period(4.00%)was significantly lower than that of group A(18.00%)and group B(20.00%),with statistical significance(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Vaginal administration of lactobacillus combined with chlorquinaldol-promestriene for se-nile patients with atrophic vaginitis can effectively relieve clinical symptoms and signs,improve vaginal cleanliness,regulate the lo-cal pH value and reduce the risk of recurrence,with good safety.

The deficiency theories of dyslexia are quite contradictory and the cross-cultural studies in recent years mainly focused on whether the dyslexics among cultures shared the same cognitive profile or just based on the language. This study used Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) imaging to measure the regional cerebral blood volume (BV) and the changes of cerebral activation in the left prefrontal cortex of 12 Chinese dyslexic children and their 12 age-matched normal controls during the Paced Visual Serial Addition Test (PVSAT). Results showed that the scores of PVSAT of dyslexic children were significantly lower than those of the normal children (t=3.33, P<0.01). The activations of the left prefrontal cortex in the normal group were significantly greater than those of dyslexic children (all P<0.01). Our results indicated that Chinese dyslexia had a general deficiency in working memory and this may be caused by the abnormal metabolic activity of brain blood volume in the left prefrontal cortex and the deficits in brain function might be the basis of neuropathology of Chinese dyslexia. Present study supports the difference on brain activation of dyslexics from different languages may be caused by the same cognitive system related to reading.

PAX2 gene encodes a nuclear transcription factor and plays a pivotal role for embryonic kidney development.It is expressed during the entire developmental process of pronephron,mesonephron and metanephron,involving in the regulation of embryonic kidney development at various fetal stages,but its expression disappeared in mature nephrons.Recently,it was found that PAX2 was re-expressed in nephropathy.Gene mutation and re-expression of PAX2 are closely related with congenital and acquired renal diseases.This paper reviews the role and significance of PAX2 expression in kidney disease from the aspects of normal expression,gene mutation and abnormal expression.

Purpose To observe the effect of MK on proliferation, migration and angiogenesis of human umbilical vein endothelial HU-VECs cells and to explore the role of MK in tumor angiogenesis. Methods siRNA targeting MK was used to downregulate MK expres-sion in human breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231. Then, the experiment was divided into three groups: the untreated group, the empty vector transfection group and MK gene interference group. CCK-8 assay was used to detect the endothelial cells proliferation, tr-answell method was for detection of endothelial cell migration numbers, and matrigel in vitro small tube formation assay was used to sur-vey the state of tube formation. Expression of MK in siRNA transfection was identified by RT-PCR and Western blot. Results The MK gene interference group showed lower cell proliferation activity, less number of migration of cells and tube formation than the other two groups (P<0. 05). Conclusion Low-expressed MK in human breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 can inhibit proliferation, mi-gration and angiogenesis of endothelial cells, which shows that MK may play an important role in tumor angiogenesis.
