Objective To investigate the characteristics and clinical application value of anti-double stranded DNA antibody de-tected by Crithidia indirect immunofluorescence assay method and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay method.Methods Eighty-five patients with systemic lupus erythematosus,20 disease controls and 75 healthy controls were selected.The serum anti-double stranded DNA antibody was detected simultaneously by the methods of Crithidia indirect immunofluorescence assay and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay and their diagnostic efficacies for detection were compared.Results For each method the positive rate in the systemic lupus erythematosus group was significantly higher than that in the disease control group and healthy control group. The difference had statistical significance (P <0.05).The positive rates of Crithidia indirect immunofluorescence assay and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay in the systemic lupus erythematosus group were 72.94% and 88.24% respectively,and the positive predictive value of enzyme linked immunosorbent assay is lower(P <0.05).Meanwhile the anti-double stranded DNA antibody con-centrations detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay method showed statistically significant difference among the active sys-temic lupus erythematosus group,the stable systemic lupus erythematosus group and the control group (P <0.05 )and presented linear trend.Conclusion Using Crithidia indirect immunofluorescence assay method to detect anti-double stranded DNA antibody for the systemic lupus erythematosus group has high specificity and is helpful for the diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay can be used to detect anti-double stranded DNA antibody concentration quantitatively,which is linearly related with systemic lupus erythematosus activity and the method is of high sensitivity,which can effectively screen the pa-tients with systemic lupus erythematosus.

Hilar cholangiocarcinoma is the most common types of cholangiocarcinoma,it is difficult to perform operation owing to its anatomic characterstics.Currently,radical resection is the most important prognostic factors of hilar cholangiocarcinoma.In addition,lymph node metastasis and biomarkers such as CA19-9,hepatocyte growth factor receptor,interleukin-8,and so on,are also closely related to the prognosis of hilar cholangiocarcinoma.This paper will review the relevant researches of China and abroad to summarize important prognostic factors of hilar cholangiocarcinoma above-mentioned.

[Objective]To evaluate the clinical treatment results for diastematomyelia treated by operation. [Method]Data from patients with diastematomyelia admitted to our hospital from May 1978 to January 2006 were reviewed. According to the classification, there were single-tube in 25 and double-tube in 96 patients. One hundred and two patients with diastematomyelia were treated by operation and ninteen by conservative treatment. The clinical results were retrospectively analyzed according to scoring neural function and monitoring the peak P40 of posterior trivial nerve cortical somatosensory evoked potential (PTNCSEP) before and after treatment.[Result]The total operative effective rate of double-tube diastematomyelia amounted to 86% during a follow-up period of 6 months to 15 years,more significant in patients with pain.The scores of neural function and PTNCSEP were significantly improved. But patients with single-tube diastematomyelia had no obvious change after operation.[Conclusion]The spinal cord is damaged severely in double-tube diastematomyelia and gradually aggravated.Operation can get symptomatic relief in many patients and terminate spinal cord lesion. So operation should be performed as soon as the diagnosis is made. The spinal cord is damaged slightly in single-tube diastematomyelia and surgery is not indicated.

0.05).Compared with control group,contents of sialic acid in the high and moderate dose groups,epididymal coefficient and contents of carnitine in the high dose group reduced significantly(P

Objective To seek an effective method for the treatment of grade ⅢB tibial fractures.Method From Oct. 1985 to Oct.1999, 26 cases of grade ⅢB tibial fractures were treated by early soft tissue coverage(including 12 cases of free muscle flaps and 14 cases of local muscle flaps), early fracture fixation(including 21 cases of external fixation and 5 cases of non-reamed intramedullary nail) and early bone grafting(15 cases).Results The follow up duration were from 10 to 32 months with an average of 15.5 months. The success rates of free and local muscle flaps were respectively 91.7 %(11/12) and 92.9 %(13/14)?Infection occurred in 5 cases (3 cases of local superficial infection and 2 cases of osteomyelitis). The time for bone union were from 17 to 66 weeks with an average of 42 weeks. Conclusion "San-Zao"therapy,especially early soft tissue coverage and early fracture fixation is on effective management for grade ⅢB tibial fractures with the advantages of promoting wound healing and bone union and decreasing the possibility of infection.

[Objective]To investigate the effect of injectable xuebijing on macrophage ofimervertebral disc hernial tissue.[Method]The pigs were used as animal models after surgery in the intervertebral disc.Macrophage in herniated disc tissue were observed with the immunohistochemical method after it was treated by injectable xuebijing.[Result]Macrophage were found in 11 of 16 herniated disc tissue in the model group,were found in 7 of 16 herniated disc tissue in the low dose xuebijing group,and were found in 6 of 16 herniated disc tissue in the high dose xuebijing group,compared to the model group,all P

Objective: To observe the effects of Thermafil obturat ion technique.Methods: 60 premolars with pulp pathema or periapical dese ase were divided into two groups with 30 in each at random,The teeth were treate d and the root canals were obturated by Thermafil obturation technique and later al condensation technique respectively. Preoperative and postoperative radiograp hs of each tooth were taken. Obturation time, incidence of pain during obturatio n and quality of obturation were compared.Results: Overfi lling was found in 11 cases in Thermafil group,while 3 in lateral condensation group( P 0.05).The average obturation tim e per canal of Thermafil and lateral condensation technique was 36.6 s and 247 .4 s respectuively ( P

Objective To study the change of reproductive endocrine function after improved hysterectomy.Methods 60 cases of patients who received improved hysterectomy for hysteromyoma were studied as study group, and 60 cases of patients who received traditional hysterectomy during the same period were set up as control group. Serum reproductive hormones in both groups were measured before the operation, in 1/2 year and in 1 year after the operation.Results In 1/2 year and in 1 year after operation, the serum levels of FSH and E 2 in study group had no significant difference as compared with those in preoperation, and the serum levels of FSH, LH in control group were significant higher, E 2 was significant lower than those in preoperation and those in study group.Conclusions Compared with traditional hysterectomy, improved hysterectomy can preserve the function of ovary. Therefore, improved hysterectomy is a good operation for treatment of benign uterine diseases.
