We found that the number of institutions made use of the undocumented in vitro diagnostic reagent in the survey. The phenomenon poses some risks and problems. In use this paper, we analyzed the situation and the reasons for the use of the undocumented in vitro diagnostic reagents, and put forward the corresponding measures.

BACKGROUND: Many studies focus on transforming growth factor β (TGF β) and its receptors, however, the distdbution of type Ⅰ TGF receptor (TGF-βR Ⅰ) in peripheral region of hypertrophic scars remain poorly understood. OBJECTIVE: To determine the expression and distribution of TGF-βR Ⅰ and type Ⅰ collagen in the peripheral and central areas of human skin hypertrophic scar. METHODS: A total of 30 cases with human cutaneous scars admitted at the Department of Plastic Surgery, First Affiliated Hospital and Department of Mammary Gland, Head and Neck Surgery, Tumor Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from 1999 to 2002, were selected, including 20 cases with hypertrophic scar and 10 cases with normal scars. A total of 180 scars were obtained from central and peripheral areas of scars as well as normal skin tissues. The protein contents of TGF-βR1 and type Ⅰcollagen was detected by immunohistochemistry. In addition, the immunostaining positive in these samples was analyzed by semiquantitative analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Compared to non hypertrophic scar and normal skin tissues, the TGF-βR1 expression of hypertrophic scar was obvious greater with strong positive reaction. The TGF-β R Ⅰ content was 100% in peripheral region of hypertrophic scar, which was notably 20% greater than that of central area (P < 0.05). The content of type Ⅰ collagen was both 100% in peripheral and central areas. The differences of positive TGF-β R Ⅰ and type Ⅰ collagen had no significance between peripheral and central areas of non hypertrophic scars (P > 0.05). There were few contents of TGF-βR Ⅰ and type Ⅰ collagen in normal skin tissues. The expression of TGF-β R Ⅰ is higher in peripheral than central areas of hypertrophic scar. Therefore, the peripheral area would be emphasized in the clinic work.

In recent years, various studies and analyses related to cosmetics safety were conducted according to routine tests in Hygienic Standard of Cosmetics (2007), and the eligible rates of tested cosmetics were high. But the other prohibited and limited use components, such as antibiotics were analyzed rarely, and meanwhile some kinds of cosmetic related dermatitis cases appeared dramatically. Several dermatitis, especially contact dermatitis and hormone dependent dermatitis symptoms were not contained in Diagnostic Criteria and Principles of Management of Skin Diseases Induced by Cosmetics-General Guideline, GB 17149.1—1997. So it indicated the standard, GB 17149.1—1997 should be revised and some prohibited and limited use components such as hormone and antibiotic testing should be appended to the safety analysis of cosmetics.

Based on the requirement of biology education development,the article analyzes the approach to improve the teaching quality of medical biology from quality education,subjiect intercrossing or 'regression' and 'outspread',and offers new ideas for education reform and innovation of the medical biology.

Objective To investigate the effects of remote preconditioning on inflammatory cytokines and respiratory index of rabbit lung injured by ischemia/reperfusion.Methods Eighteen rabbits were randomly divided into three groups(6 each):control group(C),ischemia-reperfusion group(I/R)and remote preconditioning group(R).The plasma concentrations of interleukin-6(IL-6),tumor necrosis factor-?(TNF-?)and interleukin-10(IL-10)were measured before ischemia and 60,120 and 180 min after reperfusion.Respiratory index(A-aO2/PaO2)was calculated before ischemia and 15,30,60,120 and 180 min after reperfusion.The animals were sacrificed after reperfusion,and the left lung was removed for calculation of wet/dry(W/D)ratio and lung permeability index,histological examination was done with light microscope,and diffuse alveolar damage(DAD)scores was estimated.Results The plasma concentrations of IL-6 and TNF-? were significantly higher in I/R group than in C group(P

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy and security of retroperitoneal laparoscopic ureterolithotomy(RLUL) for impacted ureteral calculi after radical cystectomy and ileal conduit.Methods 5 patients with unilateral impacted ureteral calculi after radical cystectomy and ileal conduit received RLUL were selected,and a retrospective study was performed for manner,duration of surgery,complications and length of stay and other indicators,and the treatment effect was evaluated.Results All procedures were successful and the mean operation time was (82.0±27.7)min,the extubation time was (5.4±1.1)d,hospitalization time was (10.0±2.9)d.Postoperative follow up for 6-48 months,there were no obvious complications.Conclusion The RLUL showed satisfactory availability and security for management ureteral calculi after radical cystectomy and ileal conduit.

Objective To compare distribution and antimicrobial resistance of methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus(MSSA)and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcusaureus(MRSA)in hospitalized children,and provide refer-ence for empirical use of antimicrobial agents.Methods Isolation and clinical data of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus)from hospitalized children in a hospital during 2011-2015 were analyzed retrospectively,distribution and antimicrobial resistance between MSSA and MRSA were compared.Results A total of 919 strains of S.aureus were isolated,632(68.77% )of which were MSSA,287(31.23%)were MRSA.65.03% of MSSA infection and 64.11% of MRSA infection were in children aged 29 day-1 year old.80.38% of MSSA and 79.09% of MRSA were isolated from sputum specimen.MSSA and MRSA were mainly distributed in department of pediatric respiratory medicine(50.73%,45.89% respectively)and department of pediatric neurology(22.98%,26.84% respectively). Resistance rates of MSSA to antimicrobial agents were<20.00% except penicillin and erythromycin;resistance rates of MRSA to penicillin,oxacillin,erythromycin,and clindamycin were all>40.00%;resistance rates of MR-SA to tetracycline,erythromycin,clindamycin,levofloxacin,ciprofloxacin,moxifloxacin,nitrofurantoin,and ri-fampin were all higher than MSSA.Conclusion MSSA is main S.aureus isolated from hospitalized children,in-fants under 1 year of age are the main population,the main distribution departments of MSSA and MRSA from re-spiratory tract specimen are similar,antimicrobial resistance of MRSA is generally higher than that of MSSA.

AIM: To construct recombinant lentiviral vector with short hairpin RNA (shRNA) of CREB gene, and to investigate the effect of CREB gene silencing on mitochondrial morphology and cell apoptosis in oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R)-induced cortical neurons.METHODS: Three lentiviral vectors pLentiLox3.7 (PLL) inserted shRNA fragments targeting CREB gene were co-transfected with the packaging plasmids psPAX2 and pMD2.G to the 293T cells, and the virus particles, which was infected with the primary cortical neurons, was encapsulated.The protein expression of CREB was detected by Western blot.The mitochondrial morphology, cell apoptosis and the expression of Bcl-2 and Bax were evaluated by the methods of MitoTracker red, TUNEL and Western blot in OGD/R induced cortical neurons after CREB gene silencing.RESULTS: The pLL-CREB-shRNA1 was the most effective shRNA, which inhibited 80% CREB gene expression in the cortical neurons.The mitochondrial was appeared dot and fragment morphology in OGD/R induced cortical neurons with transfected pLL-CREB-shRNA1 plasmid.In addition, the expression of Bcl-2 was decreased, the expression of Bax, and the apoptosis of the neurons were increased by tranfected with pLL-CREB-shRNA1.CONCLUSION: CREB shRNA recombinant lentiviral vector specifically inhibits the expression of CREB gene.CREB gene silencing promotes the cell apoptosis and mitochondrial morphological changes in the cortical neurons induced by OGD/R.
