Chronic lung disease is a very common complication caused by inhaled hyperoxia, mechanical ventilation and pulmonary infection in preterm infants. It shows early inflammation and late alveoli fusion with mesenchymal fibroblast proliferation. Mitogen activated protein kinase is a very important signal transduction pathway in eukaryotic cells.It plays an important role in the cell inflammation, proliferation, differentiation, survival and apoptosis, which may contributes to the chronic lung disease.

Objectives:To investigate the prevalence situation and antibiotic resistance of chlamydia trachomatis (CT),ureaplasma urealyticum(UU) and mycoplasma hominis(MH) in infertile female patient,and to analyze the resistant of mycoplasma to common antibiotics. Methods:The cervical secretion samples from 2186 female infertility and 210 pregnancies women were collected. Then chlamydia trachomatis antigen was detected by immunoassay. Mycoplasma (UU and MH) were isolated and tested antimicrobial susceptibility for 12 kinds of antimicrobial drugs. Results:In the trial group 173 were CT-positive at a rate of 7.9%,and 1102 were positive for the mycoplasmae at a rate of 50.4%,of which 987 were UU infections and 115 were MH infections.The number of CT,UU and MH infections totaled 1275 cases,leading to an overall infection rate of 58.3%. The top three antibiotics for drug sensitivity in the UU,MH and UU+MH cultures were josamycin,minocycline and clarithromycin.The three antibiotics,to which the pathogens were most tolerant,included ofloxacin,norofloxacin and sparfloxacin. Conclusion:The infection rate of chlamydia and mycoplasma in infertility women is obviously higher than normal pregnanted,this shows the fact that chlamydia and mycoplasma infection of genitourinary tract may be one reason of infertility.The sensitivity of mycoplasma to common antibiotics especially to quinolones and macrolides has decreased.

Congenital heart disease often lost the opportunity of radical sureryfor secondary pulmonary hypertension.pulmonary hypertension is pathologicallycharacterizzed by pulmonary vascular remodeling,including the vascular smooth musclecell' s proliferation,migration and extracelluar matrix deposition,Recently,someresearchers have found that connective tissue growth factor can bind with somesurface receptors of vascular smooth muscle cells,causing some biological behaviorchanges such as proliferation,migration and extracellular matrix abnormaldeposition,and activating crresponding gene expression through this signaltransduction pathway.Pulmonary vascular remodeling may be one of the molecularpathogenesis in pulmonary hypertension.

This study was to evaluate the risk factors of nocturnal hypoglycemia in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes by continuous glucose monitoring system. Fifty-one type 2 diabetic patients aged 60 or above were enrolled and the episodes of nocturnal hypoglycemia were documented. The risk factors of nocturnal hypoglycemia were analyzed by logistic regression and the cut-off of glucose levels at bedtime for nocturnal hypoglycemia was evaluated. There were twenty-two patients with total 681 nocturnal hypoglycemic episodes. Logistic regression analysis showed that the lowest glucose level at bedtime was the risk factor of nocturnal hypoglycemia (OR=0.36, 95% CI:0.13-1.00, P<0.05), while the gender, age, diabetes duration, therapy regimen, the highest and average glucose levels at bedtime were not associated to nocturnal hypoglycemia. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) showed that the bedtime glucose at≤6.2 mmol/L was the best cut-off point for predicting nocturnal hypoglycemia.

Objective To evaluate MRI diagnostic accuracy and clinical value on the pancreatic carcinoma.Methods 79 patients with suspected pancreatic carcinoma were imaged by T1-weighted spin-echo pulse sequences and T2-weighted fast spin-echo pulse sequences in axial,sagittal and coronal planes with a pelvic phased-array coils.Results 43 patients were diagnosed as pancreatic carcinoma using MR imaging,in which 39 patients were proved pathologically by biopsy.Conclusion MRI is effective diagnostic modality in localizing and staging pancreatic carcinoma and guiding for the choice of pancreatic carcinoma treatment.

Objective: To establish a method of methylation-sensitive restriction enzymes-quantitative PCR (MSRE-qPCR) for methylation analysis of adenomatous polyposis coli (APC ) gene, and to further assess the clinical value of plasma methylation detection by using this method in diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods: Hha I was used to digest genomic DNA, and the digestion efficiency was evaluated by using qPCR technique. Then the optimized MSRE-qPCR method was established. The methylation levels of APC in 45 liver tissues (20 surgically resected HCC specimens and the matched non-cancerous tissues, as well as 5 normal liver tissues) were detected by MSRE-qPCR, and then further validated by using bisulfite sequencing PCR (BSP). The results of MSRE-qPCR were compared with those of methylation-specific PCR (MSP) assay. MSRE-qPCR method was used to detect the APC methylation status of plasma samples from 72 cases of H CC, 37 cases of benign liver diseases and 41 healthy volunteers. Results: The established MSRE-qPCR method could detect as low as 1% methylated target sites in given DNA samples. The results of MSRE-qPCR and MSP showed that APC gene was hypermethylated in HCC tissues. The result of MSRE-qPCR was verified by BSP, and it was comparable with that of MSP (Kappa=0.955, P<.000 1). Methylation level of plasma APC in patients with H CC was significant higher than those in patients with benign liver diseases and the healthy volunteers (P<.000 1).Combined analysis of plasma APC methylation and serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) revealed an increased diagnostic efficacy for HCC. Conclusion: MSRE-qPCR is a method for quantitative analysis of APC methylation level. Methylation analysis of plasma APC is a valuable method for the noninvasive diagnosis of HCC.
