The current status of otolaryngology at the undergraduate stage teaching is:Too many curriculum contents,few theoretical and practical courses,students' lack of interest in study because they feel the contents difficult and so on.According to these situations,teaching reform has been carried out.The curriculum resource is divided into content-based curriculum resources and conditional resources.The current undergraduate teaching materials(Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery by People's Medical Publishing House,the Eighth Edition) is taken as its entry point,based on the current curriculum resources and its application situation in the teaching process.The study combines the teaching contents and curriculum resources and further explores the potential of curriculum resources and enlarges the resource space in order to explore the way and the method of using curriculum resource reasonably and efficiently,and construct the curriculum resources which have otolaryngology subject features and then guide teaching better.

Objective To summarize the clinical experience of coronary angiography before coronary artery grafting (CABG) with concomitant valvular surgery in patients with valvlar disease. Methods From April 2000 to May 2005, two hundred and eleven patients over 50 years old (mean age 60 3.5) with valvlar diseases were studied retrospectively. Coronary angiography was utilized for patients who were found to have risk factors for atherosclerosis. Coronary stenosis over 50% of its calibre was considered positive, and 75% stenosis (including LMCA stenosis more than 50%) was used as the indication for coronary artery bypass surgery. Results Coronary angiography was employed in 128 patients and 30 cases (23.4%) had coronary artery stenosis exceeding 50%. CABG was concomitantly performed during cardiac valvular surgery in 24 patients. In-hospital mortality in patients with valve surgery alone was 0.5%, which was significantly lower compared with patients with valve surgery combined with CABG group (4.2%)(P

Objective To examine the effects of nitroglycerin tolerance on the following myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury (MI/R). Methods Male Sprague-Dawley rats were rardomly subjected to either one of the following treatments: GTN 600 ?g/(kg/h) or saline infusion for 12 h. GTN tolerance was determined with the measurement of mean arterial blood pressure (MABP) and isolated arterial tension. All the GTN-tolerated and the control rats were subjected to 40 min of ischemia followed by 4 h of reperfusion. Myocardial apoptosis (TUNEL analysis), myocardial infarction size (Evans blue-TTC stain), plasma creatine kinase (CK) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity were determined. Results Nitrate tolerance aggravated MI/R injury as evidenced by increased myocyte apoptosis and infarction size and plasma CK, LDH activity. However, sole GTN tolerance without MI/R injury failed to show any deleterious effect on rat heart. Conclusion GTN tolerance may exert a “potential" deleterious effect on the ischemic hearts.

Objective:To investigate the clinical features of patients with ankylosing spondylitis ( AS) and malignancies. Methods: In the study, 31 AS patients with malignancies in Peking University First Hospital from January 2006 to July 2014 were enrolled, and their clinical features were compared with AS patients without malignancies at the same time in the hospital. Then their general characteristics, clinical and imaging findings of AS, characteristics of malignancies and prognosis were retrospectively analyzed. Results:The 31 cases of AS with malignacies accounted for 11 . 8% of all AS patients admitted to the hos-pital in the same period. They comprised of 27 males (87%) and 4 females (13%) . Their mean ages at diagnosis of AS were 43 ± 17 years ( range:16-76 years) , and their mean ages at diagnosis of malig-nancy were 60 ± 12 years ( range:31-87 years) respectively. Malignancy was diagnosed after the estab-lishment of AS in 27 of our patients. Furthermore, imaging changes typical of AS were found in all the 31 patients at the diagnosis of AS, but the majority of them had never received any proper treatment for AS. The malignancies of 31 AS patients included bladder cancer (7 cases) , hematological malignancy (6 ca-ses), lung cancer (5 cases), renal cancer (5 cases), prostate cancer (2 cases), carcinoma of renal pelvis (2 cases) , breast cancer (2 cases) , gastric carcinoma (2 cases) , rectal cancer (2 cases) , neu-roendocrine carcinoma (2 cases) , colon carcinoma (1 case) , and esophagus cancer (1 case) . Conclu-sion:There is risk of malignancy in AS. Malignancy is not rare in patients with AS. Bladder cancer is the most common one followed by hematological malignancy. In consequence, close attention should be paied to the conditon of AS with malignancy in clinical practice.

Objective To compare serum protein fingerprint among Uygur patients with thyroid cancer and benign thyroid nodules, and Han patients with thyroid cancer, and to screen ethnic-specific protein markers of thyroid cancer. Methods Using the technology of two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2D-PAGE), the protein expression profiles of Uygur and Han patients with thyroid cancer and Uygur patients with thyroid nodules were established and compared by image analysis software between two groups. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry coupling techniques ( LC-MS/MS) were used to identify differential protein. The protein′s name, cellular localization and functional classification were searched in Swissport database. Results There are 11 differentially expressed proteins by comparison of sera in Uygur patients with benign thyroid nodules and thyroid cancer, in which complement C3 and C4b levels were down-regulated in the serums of Uygur patients with benign thyroid nodules, and 9 proteins such as heme-binding proteins etc were up-regulated. There are 7 differentially expressed proteins by comparison of serums in Uygur and Han patients with thyroid cancer, in which transferrin level was up-regulated in the serum of Uygur patients with thyroid cancer, and 6 proteins such as cytokeratin-1 etc were down-regulated in serum of Uygur patients with thyroid cancer. Conclusion Combined screening of multiple labelled proteins including heme-binding protein,α2-macroglobulin, and transferrin protein etc may provide the basis for the diagnosis of thyroid cancer in Uygurs and Hans.

Objective To investigate the expression and significance of TLR-2 and HO-1 in recurrent nasal polyps,and to discuss the relationship between the expression and the recurrence of nasal polyps. Methods The immune protein imprinting technology was used to detect the protein expression of TLR-2 and HO-1 in 20 cases of recurrent nasal polyps,20 cases of nasal polyps and 20 cases of normal mucosal tissue in control group, and the relationship between the two proteins were analyzed. Results Expression levels of TLR-2 and HO-1 in the tissues of the recurrent nasal polyps had statistically significant difference with nasal polyps group ( <0.05) . Expression levels of TLR-2 and HO-1 in the tissues of the nasal polyps had statistically significant difference with normal nasal mucosa tissues ( <0.05) .The expression of TLR-2 and HO-1 had significant correlation in each group ( <0.05) .Conclusion TLR-2 and HO-1 plays an important role in the recurrence mechanism of nasal polyps, and both of them may be as objective indicators for postoperative follow-up of patients with recurrent nasal polyps and judging the recurrent trend.

Objective To study the renal pathology and expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in rats with hypothyroidism caused by iodine deficiency.Methods The rats were randomly grouped into test group and normal group,and the test group was further randomly divided into model group and L-T4 group.Observation were made when the hypothyroid model was formed after maneuvering for 21 days and the medication had been taken for 56 days.The observed data included the morphogy of the kidney,serum TT3,TT4,TSH,blood urea nitrogen (BUN),serum creatinine (SCr),and VEGF expression.Results (1) After medication for 56 days,compared to normal group,BUN and SCr levels in L-T4 and model groups showed apparently increasing [BUN (5.55 ± 0.50,5.80 ± 0.66 vs 5.00 ± 0.24) mmol/L,P＜0.05 ; SCr (26.83 ± 0.75,27.0 ± 3.41 vs 22.5 ± 2.07) μmol/L,P＜0.05],and L-T4 group showed slightly lowered BUN and SCr levels compared with model group (P＞0.05).(2) By 21 days,in the model group there was moderate mesangial hyperplasia involving focal glomeruli.By 56th day of medication,entire glomeruli showed moderate mesangial hyperplasia with lessened number of dilated capillaries in the model group.However,in the L-T4 treated group,mesangial hyperplasia was much less and capillaries though dilated appeared wholesome,as compared with the model group.(3) By 21th day,the IODA value of VEGF in the model group was higher than that in the normal control (44.64 ± 14.99 vs 29.05 ± 9.14,P＜0.01).After medication for 56 days,there was no significant difference in the IODA value of three groups.Conclusions The characteristics of renal pathology in rats with hypothyroidism caused by iodine deficiency consist of mesangial hyperplasia and loss of glomerular capillaries.The expression of VEGF is raised early in the course of renal damage,but lowered thereafter.L-T4 can not reverse the sustained kidney damage and impaired renal function.

cerebral small vessel disease refers to the small vessel lesion and the resulting changes in the cerebral tissue.Both the small vessels detected by cerebrovascular reserve and the lesion of cerebral small vessel disease are in the same segment,so we can take advantage of cerebrovascular reserve as means to inspect and evaluate the small vessel lesion itself.

171.1?mol/L) was 25.0%, 37.7% and 46.3%, the percentage of the fulminating hepatitis was 3.0%, 5.9% and 14.0%, and the mean hospital stay days for the convalescent patients were 31.59?18.97, 31.13?13.70 and 37.51?18.33 days, respectively. All these variables were significantly higher in aged group compared with youth and middle-aged groups. The levels of alanine transaminase (ALT) lowered significantly with the advance of age, and they were 1 711.7?1 063.4, 1 423.0?913.2 and 1 162.7?792.5U/L, respectively. The same was true in serum albumin and choline esterase (ChE). On the other hand, the percentage of acute hepatitis without jaundice decreased to 17.9%, 6.4%and 2.5% from the youth to the aged. However, TBIL on admission (131.41?106.97 vs 169.60?136.11 vs 164.36?106.22?mol/L) and the elevation of the peak of TBIL (135.01?109.15 vs 186.08?150.64 vs 209.63?143.74?mol/L) of the middle-aged and the aged were significantly higher than those of the youth. There was no significant difference in the symptoms, the ratio of direct to total bilirubin, mortality to complications among them. Furthermore, the serum IgM and IgG antibodies against HEV were negative in about 8.1% of the patients with HEV. Conclusion With a higher incidence and more severe hepatic damage, the middle-aged and the aged patients need a longer duration for recovery than the young patients.

ve To establish a method for determination of arsenic in drinking water. Methods The contents of arsenic in water samples were determined directly by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrophotome-try with masking agent of palladium. The working conditions were defined as wave length of 193.7 nm, slit width of 1.3 nm, current of hollow cathode lamp of 12.0 mA; drying 40 sec at 80℃~140℃ ; ashing 20 sec at 1100℃~1200℃; atomizing 5 sec at 2 300℃; purifying 4 sec at 2 600℃ . Results The linear relationship was 10~200?g/ L ar-senic. The average recovery rates of water samples at concentrations of 50 ?g/ L and 150?g/ L arsenic after being added arsenic standard solutions were 100.7% and 103.6% respectively, and sensitivity reached 10?g/ L. The cor-relation coefficient were 0.9954~0.999 7 obtained from 6 randomly repeated determination of standard curve. The metal ions coexisting in determined water samples didn't interfere the determination of arsenic under the application of common uncoated graphite tube. The 0.2% aluminum didn't disturb the determination of arsenic also. Conclusion This method could be applied in the determination of arsenic in water, especially could be applied in the direct deter-mination of arsenic in more clear water samples.
