Objective:To establish a method for determining the immunological activity of ribonucleic acid. Methods: Leucocyte adherence inhibition test ( LAI) was applied, and the important parameters of LAI including the mouse strain, drug concentration, treatment time, content of buffer solution and cell density were researched. The immunological activity of RNAⅠ, Ⅱand Ⅲ was re-spectively determined by the method. Results:Stable and reliable parameters were obtained: the sample concentration was 10 mg· ml-1 , the treatment time was 2 hours, Ca2+ and Mg2+ were necessary for the buffer solution, and the cell density was about 4 × 107 cell·ml-1 . The strain of mouse showed no effect on the results. As a result, the determination method for immunological activity was established. Using the method, the immunological activity of RNA Ⅰ,Ⅱand Ⅲ was determined 3 times, and the results met the re-quirements with RSD below 20%. Conclusion:The method is suitable for determining the immunological activity of RNA.

Accurate qualitative and quantitative assessment of anterior or posterior segment structures is crucial,not only for proper diagnosis of different ocular diseases but also for optimal surgical planning and postoperative follow-up.As a noninvasive and noncontact method,optical coherence tomography (OCT) has become an essential tests for the diagnosis of retinal diseases.To a more recent technology,swept-source OCT (SS-OCT) improved the depth of imaging and the scan speed,which can perform anterior segment evaluation liking corneal graft examination.Meanwhile,this newly technology add multimodal approach such as EVV,OCTA and En face OCT,for angiography and choroid mapping.Thus,SS-OCT has become a valuable imaging strategy to understand the pathologies of retinal diseases such as PVD,diabetic maculopathy,neovascularization and macular telangiectasia.With the use of multimodal approach,SS-OCT is beneficial for optimal surgical planning and postoperative follow-up for the vitreoretinal diseases,such as epiretinal membrane,retinal detachment,and diabetic taction retinal detachment.Moreover,this technology can help us better understand the ophthalmic pathologies of glaucoma and tumors.This article reviews the technical principles of SS-OCT and the advances in clinical applications.

To observe the changes in hemorheology, endotoxin and TNF ? in blood after hemoperfusion(HP) with adsorbent immobilized polymyxin B (PMB) on sepsis in rats. Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups:LPS+HP+PMB,LPS+HP and LPS. All the rats received intravenously injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS, Escherichia coil O111:B4,1mg/kg). Plasma of the rats in the group of LPS+HP+PMB was passed through a column containing sepharose coated activated charcoal immobilized polymyxin B at the 4th hour after LPS injection. The treated plasma was transfused bak after being mixed with blood cells. In LPS+HP group, the column did not contain immobilized polymyxin B. The animals of LPS group received LPS only. Quantitative endotoxin determination in blood was done with limulus amebocyte lysate test,TNF ? of the plasma assayed with ELISA, and hemorheology parameters were also observed after hemoperfusion. In LPS+HP+PMB group, the concentration of plasma was significantly decreased after hemoperfusion, but it was still significantly higher than the baseline value, and there was a decrease of blood cell ratio after hemoperfusion. The results suggest that specific adsorbent could remove endotoxin in the circulation and improve hemorheology.

BACKGROUND:Using three dimensional (3D) reconstruction techniques,any part of body is accessible to visual observation.However,reports concerning 3D reconstruction of craniofacial vascularity based on PC are few in China.OBJECTIVE:To explore the method and the application values of reconstructing a digital 3D model of craniofacial vascularity based on the data of CT strengthening scanning.METHODS:CT strengthening scan images from a healthy volunteer in DICOM format were imported into Mimics 10.01 software and craniofacial blood vessels were reconstructed with the technique of thresholding,editing and 3D region growing.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The 3D digital model of craniofacial blood vessels was obtained.This model could be zoomed and rotated randomly and displayed the spatial positions and adjacent relationships of different anatomical structures,also the reconstructed structures could be measured in 3D space.The 3D digital model of craniofacial blood vessels can be reconstructed conveniently and quickly with Mimics software on PC,and also it can bring morphological reference to human anatomy teaching,clinical neurosurgery,oral and maxillofacial surgery,as well as image diagnosis,and will be helpful to generate a virtual plateform in craniofacial surgery.

Objective To study the prevention and treatment of chylous leakage after Whipple operation.Methods Clinical data of 381 patients underwent Whipple operation from Jan 2010 to march 2013 were retrospectively analyzed.Results Among 381 patients,23 patients had chylous leakage,the incidence was 6.04%.While in 89 patients,in which intraoperative precautionary physical ligation or mattress suturing of the lymphatic vessels were undertaken,no chyle leakage occurred ; Most of chyle leakage occurred in malignant tumor after radical resection(21 patients),most chylous leakage was found 5-8 days after surgery,with daily volume of 260-450 ml.All patients of chylous leakage were cured by conservative treatment.Conclusions Chylous leakage are common in PD.Intraoperative preventive measures such as lymphatic duct ligation or safe suturing can effectively prevent chyle leakage.Conservative therapy heals most chylous leakage after Whipple operation.

Smilax macrophylla is a type of Chinese herbal medicine for the treatment of gouty arthritis. Study on its quality evaluation method was very necessary. Resveratrol (trans-3,5,4'-trihydroxystilbene), its generally acknowl-edged major compound with definite therapeutic effect, was detected in the root of S. macrophylla. HPLC was used with the mobile phase of acetonitrile-water (25:75). The detection wavelength was 320 nm. The results showed that the method can be used in content determination of resveratrol in S. macrophylla. It was concluded that the study was able to establish content determination method of resveratrol in S. macrophylla in order to lay the foundation of the establishment of quality standard of this Chinese herbal medicine.

Objective To explore the expression of Topo Ⅱα and COX-2 in breast cancer tissues and investigate their correlations to clinicopathologic feature of breast cancer. MethodsThe expression of Topo Ⅱα and COX-2 in 50 specimens of breast cancer and their normal tissues were detected by immunohistochemistry. Their correlation to clinicopathologic features of breast cancer were analyzed.ResultsThe positive rates of Topo Ⅱα were 64 % (32/50) and 22 % (11/50) and COX-2 were 68 % (34/50) , 14 %(7/50) in breast cancer and normal tissue (P<0.05). The expression of Topo Ⅱα was correlated to degree of differentiation (P <0.05), not correlated to patient age, tumor size, clinical stage and lymph node metastasis(P >0.05). The expression of COX-2 was correlated to tumor size, degree of differentiation, clinical stage and lymph node metastasis (P <0.05), not correlated to patient age (P >0.05). Conclusion Topo Ⅱα and COX-2 expression can be used as an indicator for predicting the differentiation, infiltration and metastasis characteristics of breast cancer.
