Objective To investigate the risk factors of ischemic stroke in Jiangsu Taixing population.Methods Case-control study was used in this investigation.Cases: all the diagnosed ischemic stroke patients in neurology department of Taixing People 's Hospital from 2011.9 to 2013.6.Controls: all the controls were selected randomly from community residents in Taixing city during the same period of time, according to the age and gender and ratio of 3:2.Univariate analysis and Logistic regression model was applied to analyze risk factors respectively.Results Seven hundred and seventy-seven stroke patients ( case group) and 518 controls ( control group) were brought into the study.It was preliminarily found in univariate analysis that compared with the control group, the rates of smoke, hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia and the waist circumference, waist-to-hip ratio were significantly higher in the case group;while the total bilirubin level was significantly lower ( all P<0.001 ) .Logistic regression showed that smoking (OR=2.089, 95%CI:1.452-3.005), hypertension (OR=3.838, 95%CI:2.516-5.855) were risk factors of stroke in the elder population in Taixing, elevated total bilirubin level ( OR=0.281, 95%CI:0.155-0.508) was protective factor of stroke in the elder population ( all P<0.05 ).Conclusion No smoking, no hypertension history could make it less possible for stroke to occur, and total bilirubin level becomes protective factor of stroke.

Since the discovery of mast cells (MCs) in 1878, MCs have long been recognised to be the key effector cells in allergic reactions. However, little is known about their roles in defending microorganisms. In this review, the recent research progress in the roles of MCs, in the body defence against bacterial and viral infection, in pathogen recognition mechanisms and in inflammatory mediator release are discussed.

The portable high frequency (HF) X-ray machine for field use is introduced in this paper, which applies HF technology and the microcomputer. Compared with the traditional one, it has many new functions such as the self-motion exposal, real-time inspection and display, the alarm of the failure and the automatic disposal. With the advanced technology, it has overcome the deficiencies of the traditional one, including the overweight, bulkiness and unportability. Equipped with the portable mobile shelf, this machine is fit for field operations.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between ischemic cerebrovascular desease(ICVD) and carotid atherosclerosis and its risk factors.Methods 186 cases with ICVD and 194 cases without cerebrovascular disease or healthy people(control group) were enrolled in this study.Carotid ultrasonagraphy was performed in the two groups and blood biochemical indexes were detected in the meanwhile.The data were compared between the two groups.Results Higher age(69?7years) and higher prevalence of hypertension(66.1%),diabets mellitus(53.4%) and metabolic syndrome(44.6%) were found in ICVD group than in control groups [(61?5)years,48.8%,15.2%,12.9%](all(P

This year an outbreak of influenza in Mexico comes from a new epidemic of influenza viruses:A/H1N1 influenza virus.This virus is a kind of virus mixture,including human,avian and swine influenza virus gene fragments.The pathogenic mechanism of avian,swine and human influenza virus in its natural host were compared.The main purpose is to assess the risk of which pigs and poultry has the possibility to become one of zoonotic disease and to assess the possible role in process of avian flu transmission from pigs to people.As zoonotic disease,avian influenza and swine influenza virus have the key role in the process of human infection.But the influenza virus spread of crossing species barrier is not sufficient to cause a large outbreak of human influenza.Animal influenza viruses must have a significant genetic variation before they could live for a long term in the crowd.

Objective To generalize widely the use of laboratory electronic order system in hospital,and rebuild and optimize laboratory workflow. Methods The workflows were confirmed by step-by-step and deployed synthetically materials preparation and staff training,which improved the system continuously during its working. Results All the concerned modules runs stably,which functions are improved greatly and the expected goals of design and application generalization are reached. Conclusion The functional applicability and manipulability of interface are in favor of generalizing the use of the health information system.

Objective To compare with the different effect of the plasma and serum containing Danshen Injection (DI) on the angiogenesis. Methods The DI-containing plasma and serum at different concentrations and sampled at different time were prepared. The effect of DI-containing plasma and serum on the angiogenesis of chicken chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) was observed by using CAM model. Results The proliferation of vessels in all DI-containing plasms and serum groups and DI group was obvious as compared with that in the group of the blank plasma and serum(P

With the development of chemical analysis technology and data processing technology,metabonomics has become the important method in functional genomics study.In this paper,the definition and advangtages of metabonomics are provided.The implication of metabolomics in pharmacology are summarized and future perspectives are discussed.
