Conclusions The prevalence of MS is high in rural elderly population,especially in females.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of nucleoside analogues (NAs) antiviral therapy on clinical outcome for hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related primary hepatic carcinoma patients after hepatectomy. Methods The clinical data of 156 HBV-related primary hepatic carcinoma patients after hepatectomy were retrospectively analyzed..According to whether accepted postoperative antiviral treatment, all patients were divided into control group (n = 80)and observation group (n = 76). The serum HBV DNA capacity, recurrence-free survival (RFS)and overall survival (OS)were compared between two groups. Results One week, 1 month, 2 months and 3 months after operation , the serum HBV DNA capacity of observation group was significantly lower than that of control group(P < 0.05). One year, 3 years and 5 years after operation, intergroup comparison of RFS rate of both groups showed statistical significance (P < 0.05) and 1 year, 3 years and 5 years after operation, the difference of OS rate of both groups indicated statistical significance (P < 0.05). Conclusion Standard NAs antiviral treatment for HBV-related primary hepatic carcinoma patients after hepatectomy ,can improve prognosis and prolong survival time. The inhibition the HBV copy active may be its mechanism.

Objective To evaluate the expression of interleukin-6 (IL-6) on peripheral blood and adenoid in children with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and adenoidal hypertrophy ,to investigate the mechanism of IL-6 on the occurrence and development of CRS .Methods A total of 216 cases of hypertrophic adenoids were collected ,including 95 CRS children with hypertrophic adenoid (CRS group) ,70 children with allergic rhinitis and hypertrophic adenoid (AR group)and 51 children with hypertrophic adenoid (control group) .The plasma IL-6 concentrations were detected by ELISA ,and the expression and distribution of IL-6 in adenoid tissue was detected by immunohistochemistry .Results The plasma IL-6 level in CRS group was (49 .8 ± 8 .3)pg/mL ,significantly higher than that of in control group (33 .6 ± 6 .9)pg/mL and in AR group (35 .9 ± 5 .6)pg/mL ,differences had statistic significance ( P< 0 .05) .However ,there was no statistically significant difference between AR group and control group .Meanwhile ,the presence of IL-6 in adenoid tissue was mainly seen in inflammation cells and fibroblasts while less in mesenchymal cells ,there were statistical differences between CRS group and control group/AR group (P< 0 .05) ,but no statistical difference between AP group and control group(P> 0 .05) .Conclusion Among children with CRS ,expression of IL-6 whether in peri-plasma or in focal tissue was higher than those without CRS ,demonstrating that IL-6 may play an important role in the pathogenesis and developemnt of CRS in chil-dren .

Objective To analyze the related factors in new born failed in hearing screening and its audiological characteristics . Methods From May 2009 to Febrary 2012 ,952 infants within the 3 to 6-month-old with detailed birth records and hearing screen-ing records were reviewed in the study .They were born in Chongqing and surrounding areas ,but failed in the first and second hear-ing screening .They were tested by auditory brainstem response (ABR) ,distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAE) ,tympan-ometry and stapedius reflex .Results The normal ratio of tympanogram ,normal group(74 .25% ) was higher than the high-risk group(69 .61% )(P<0 .05);The pass proportion of DPOAE in normal group(34 .57% ) was higher than high-risk group(27 .94% ) (P<0 .05);In normal group ,ABR response threshold >30 dBnHL was 55 .80% ,60 .36% in high-risk group .High-risk group′s hearing abnormality rate was significantly higher than the normal group (P<0 .05);In normal group ,mean threshold of ABR was (47 .64 ± 22 .86)dBnHL .While it was(50 .58 ± 25 .02)dBnHL in high-risk group .The threshold was higher in normal group than high-risk group(P<0 .05) .Conclusion premature birth ,low birth weight(<1 500 g) ,hyperbilirubinemia ,neonatal asphyxia ,pal-ace the virus infection ,mechanical ventilation ≥ 5 days ,≥ 2 high-risk factors are risk factors for hearing loss .Newborn hearing screening is a long and arduous task ,We should enhance screening efforts in infant with high risk factors ,and actively prevent and treat neonatal perinatal risk factors and reduce the incidence of hearing loss .

AIM: To discuss the effects of phytoestrogenic-genistein on cathepsin K (CK) expression stimulated by interleukin-1α (IL-1α) in osteoclast-like cells (OCLs) . METHODS: The OCLs were isolated from tissue of human giant cell tumor of bone (GCT) . The cells treated with reagents were divided into 7 groups including control (treated with phenol red-free-DMEM), vehicle (treated with 1.2 nmol· L-1 IL- 1α), 10-10-10-6genistein, genistein+ ICI 182.780, and 17[β-estrodiol (17β-E2) group. The cells were treated with 1.2 nmol· L-1IL-1α after pre-treated with genistein or 17β-E2 for 48 h (excluded the control group) . Expression of CK wasdetermined by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blot in OCLs stimulated by IL-1α in the presence of genistein or 17[β-E2. RESULTS: The obvious increase of expression of CK by IL1α in vehicle group was noted in comparing with control group (P ＜ 0.01 ) . Genistein down-regulated CK gene expression stimulated by IL-1α at the transcription level in a dose-dependent manner (r = 0.68, P ＜ 0.01 ) .Genistein down-regulated CK protein expression stimulated by IL-1α also in a dose-dependent manner (r = 0.61,P ＜ 0.01 ). The effects of genistein were abrogated partly after treatment with the estrogen receptor antagonist ICI 182.780. CONCLUSION: Genistein inhibits CK expression stimulated by IL-1α partly through estrogen receptor in OCLs.

Objective To investigate the content and changes of fluoride in corn and pepper, to evaluate the effect of prevention and control measures, and to provide a basis for adjusting the prevention and control strategy. Methods In 2013, according to the different directions of east, west, south, north and center, 5 townships were selected from each coal-burning-borne endemic fluorosis areas in all 23 counties (cities, districts), and 3 villages was randomly selected from each township. Household samples of corn and dried pepper in 10 households were collected to detect fluorine content. The results of 14 counties were compared with the 2007 survey data. Results A total of 884 and 3379 samples of corn and pepper were collected, and the median fluorine content was 1.26 and 9.15 mg/kg, the range was 0.50~254.59 mg/kg and 0.50~3701.88 mg/kg, respectively. Compared with the survey data of 2007, the median fluoride content of corn of 14 counties decreased by nearly 50%, and the median amount of pepper was reduced by more than 80%. The differences were statistically significant (mg/kg:corn 1.36 vs 2.63, dried pepper 9.70 vs 55.31, Z = 3.28, 9.13, P<0.05). Conclusion The fluoride content of corn and pepper in Guizhou Province is significantly lower, but it is still relatively high in some coal-burning-borne fluorosis counties (cities, districts).
