Objective To investigate the expression of Skp2 and Cx43 in cervical carcinoma and to study their relationships and clinical significance. Methods The expression of Skp2 and Cx43 was examined by immunohistochemical method in 48 cases of cervical carcinoma tissue, 84 cases of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CINⅠ - Ⅱ 45 cases, CINⅢ 39 cases), 28 cases of chronic cervicitis. Results Skp2 expression in cervical carcinoma was higher than that in the CINⅠ - Ⅱ and chronic cervicitis (P <0.05), Cx43 expression was lower in cervical carcinoma than that in the CINⅢ, CINⅠ - Ⅱ and chronic cervicitis (P <0.05). The expression of Skp2 was correlated with histological differentiation and lymph node metastasis (P <0.05). The expression of Cx43 was correlated with the lymph node metastasis (P <0.05). Besides, the expression of Skp2had a negative correlation with that of Cx43. Conclusion Skp2 and Cx43 may play an important role in the genesis and development of cervical carcinoma.

Objective To investigate the effect of cardiac resynchronization therapy on improving heart function and reversing left ventricular remodeling in chronic heart failure patients. Methods Eleven patients with NYHA class Ⅲ to Ⅳ heart failure, ejection fraction ≤35% and QRS duration ≥130 ms were implanted synchronous biventricular pacemaker. Serial assessment was performed before and up to 1-36 months after pacing. Results There were significant improvement of LVEF、 LVFS; and decrease in MR、 LVED and QRS duration. The NYHA class of heart function was improved from Ⅲ-Ⅳ to Ⅰ-Ⅱ. Six-minute hall walk distances were also improved. Conclusion For patients with NYHA class Ⅲ to Ⅳ heart failure and ventricular conduction delay, cardiac resynchronization therapy could reverse left ventricular remodeling and improve heart function.

As the key phase for medical students to be doctors,clinical internship plays a vital role in the whole medical education process.Interns in the department of gastrointestinal surgery face series of difficulties,such as wide variety of diseases and emergence of new technology and new concepts.In addition,because of the uneven levels of teachers and low enthusiasm of interns,the result of clinical practice teaching is not satisfactory.Based on the above-mentioned problems,measures have been introduced during the process of clinical practice teaching,including selection of typical diseases and surgical procedures,construction of clinical practice teaching team,adoption of pluralistic teaching methods,reinforcement of participation of interns during the clinical practice.Finally,the quality of teaching in our department has been irmproved significandy.

Objective To evaluate diagnostic method and infection factors for catheter-related bloodstream infec-tion(CRBSI)due to Rhizobium radiobacter (R.radiobacter)in pediatric patients.Methods Clinical data of 1 014 pediatric patients with central venous catheter(CVC)-related treatment in a hospital from February 2012 to February 2014 were collected,semi-quantitative culturing of catheter,colony forming unit (CFU)ratio of catheter to venous blood,difference in culture time between venous blood and catheter were detected among patients with R.radiobact-er infection;factors for R.radiobacter infection were analyzed.Results Of 1 014 pediatric patients who used CVC, 32 were detected R.radiobacter from catheter blood,28 were detected from venous blood,27 were detected from both catheter and venous blood.Catheter semi-quantitative culture of 27 patients were ≥ 15 CFU,5 were< 15 CFU;CFU ratio of catheter to venous blood of 22 patients were ≥5:1,6 were<5:1;difference in culture time be-tween venous blood and catheter of 26 patients were ≥2 hours,2 were<2 hours.Risk factor analysis revealed that child’s age,catheter indwelling time of each group were significantly different (both P <0.05).Conclusion Cathe-ter semi-quantitative culture,CFU ratio of catheter to venous blood,and difference in culture time between venous and catheter blood are important diagnostic basis for confirming R.radiobacter bloodstream infection;patients aged <2 years,catheter indwelling time >5 days are risk factors for R.radiobacter bloodstream infection.

Objective To quantitatively analyze the fetal lung echo and right lung volume in the third trimester by real-time three-dimensional ultrasound (3-D US) and evaluate the feasibility of fetal lung maturity. Methods A total of 732 women with normal singleton pregnancies between 28 and 42 weeks of gestation underwent ultrasound examination. The 3-D US equipment with a 3.5-5MHz transabdominal transducer was used for the fetal biometric measurement. The echogenicity ratio between fetal lung and liver was compared. The fetal lung volume was calculated by the rotational multiplanar technique for volume measurement (VOCAL). Results The right fetal lung volume increased with the increase of gestational age with a linear positive correlation (r=0.884, P<0.01). After 34 weeks, the echogenicity ratio of fetal lung to liver was more than 1.1. Conclusion The echogenicity of lung/liver and fetal lung volume could be used as normal fetal predictable indicators for fetal lung maturity.

Objective:To investigate the effects of enamel matrix proteins(EMPs) on proliferation and alkaline phosphotase (ALP) activity of human dental follicle cells(HDFCs) in vitro. Methods:HDFCs were dissected and cultured by digestion with bacterial collagenase. MTT method and enzyme kinetics method were used to examine the proliferation and ALP activity of HDFCs treated with EMPs.Results:EMPs at 25~200 mg/L increased the proliferation of HDFCs and EMPs at 100 mg/L showed the strongest effects in 7-day-culture.EMPs at 100 mg/L increased ALP activity of HDFCs in 3- and 7-day cultures.Conclusion:EMPs may stimulate the proliferation and the ALP activity of HDFCs.

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate if Gadolinium-enhanced MRI can detect early reversible ischemia of the femoral head epiphysis caused by hip hyper-abduction in piglets. Between 3 and 6 h consistent hyper-abduction, gadolinium-enhanced MRI was performed in 20 femoral heads of 10 piglets. After completion of MRI scan, the piglets were allowed to ambulate freely for 1 or 7 days and re-imaged. The enhanced-MRI results of epiphyseal and physeal cartilage and the secondary center of ossification were observed. MRI appearances and histological findings were compared. On Gadolinium-enhanced MRI, decreased or absent enhancement was seen in 14 cartilaginous epiphyses of all 20 femoral heads. Reperfusion was completed in 10 of 14 femoral heads after one day of ambulation and in the rest 4 after 7 days of ambulation. Gadolinium-enhanced MRI can identify early ischemia and its reversal of the capital femoral epiphysis induced by hip hyper-abduction.

This study is to investigate the inhibitory effect of lidamycin (LDM) and its combination with methotrexate (MTX) on lung metastasis of fibrosarcoma by bioluminescence imaging in athymic mice. A stable luciferase transfected HT-1080 cell line was constructed and the capability to establish experimental lung metastasis in athymic mice was confirmed. The optical imaging system was applied to evaluate the formation of lung metastasis in vivo. In addition, metastatic nodules were counted for the evaluation of inhibition rates. As shown, the fluorescent intensity of luciferase-transfected HT-1080 cells was colinear with the cell population and the minimal detected cell population was 100 cells/well. Optical imaging showed that the fluorescent intensity of treated group was apparently lower than that of the control. The inhibition rates of lung metastasis by LDM alone at 0.025 mg x kg(-1) and 0.05 mg x kg(-1) were 53.9% and 75.9%, respectively, while that of MTX alone at 0.5 mg x kg(-1) was 70.2%. The combination of LDM at 0.025 mg x kg(-1) and MTX at 0.5 mg x kg(-1) showed an inhibition rate of 88.7%. The coefficient of drug interaction (CDI) was 0.82. The results herein demonstrated that LDM alone had strong anti-metastasis effect on human fibrosarcoma HT-1080 and the inhibition efficacy is strengthened when combined with MTX.

(P > 0. 05). Conclusions:Metronidazole-containing triple therapy may reduce the CD infection secondary to eradication of Hp infection in pediatric patients,and has no negative impact on efficacy of Hp eradication.
