Objective To explore the potential value of multiple tumor markers chip( C- 12) in preoperative diagnosis of gastric cancer. Methods The serum levels of 12 rumor markers were measured in 45 gastric cancer patients, 38 benign gastrosis patients and 65 normal controls by use of C-12 in order to find out the most levels of CA199, CEA, CA242, AFP and CA125 in the gastric cancer patients were significantly higher than those of the benign gastrosis patients and normal controls. Moreover, the serum levels of β- HCG and HGH were also significantly higher in gastric cancer group than benign gastric disease group and control group ( P <sis of gastric cancer. CEA is the TM with the highest sensitivity, validity and negative predictive value of 57.8% ,81.8% and 77.1% ,respectively whereas CA242 is the TM with the highest specificity and positive CEA + CA125 + CA199 and CEA + CA242 + CA199 + CA125, respectively. The sensitivity, specificity and validity of the best combination of 2 TMs, 3 TMs and 4TMs for gastric cancer were not statistically significantly different from those of C-12 and the best TM ( P > 0.05 ). Conclusion The multiple tumor markers chip ( C-12 ) has a relatively high value in the preoperative diagnosis of gastric cancer. The best combinations of 2 TMs ( CEA + CA125) ,3 TMs ( CEA + CA125 + CA199 ) and 4TMs ( CEA + CA242 + CA199 + CA125 ) for gastric cancer diagnosis could be sufficient to replace the combination of 12 TMs.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the expression of IFN-γ, IL-2 and TNF-αand pathological damage of lung tissue, and to provide reference values for protection and treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis. Methods BALB/c mice models of pulmonary tuberculosis were established by infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv through the caudal vein. At 0 (not infected),2,4,6W and 8W after infection, the bacterial loads in the lung were performed and the pathological damage of the lung was evaluated, respectively. At the same time, the expression of IFN-γ,IL-2 and TNF-α-positive cells in the lung tissues was detected by immunohistochemistry. Results Two weeks after infection, the expression of IFN-γ, IL-2 and TNF-αpositive cells was obviously increased compared with those at 0 week. The proportion of IFN-γ-positive cells were obviously decreased at 6 weeks (9.25%) to 8 weeks (5.67%) after infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv. At the same stage, there is a limited decrease tendency of TNF-α and IL-2 expression compared with those at 4 weeks after infection, and there was no significant difference compared with those at 2W or 4W after infection. At 8 weeks after infection, the bacterial loads (8.43) in the lung and the scores(17) of pathological damage were significantly increased compared with those at 6 weeks after infection. Conclusion The high expression of IFN-γ, IL-2 and TNF-αprotect lung tissues against MTB infection at the early stage. The decrease of IFN-γexpression is responsible for serious damage of the lung tissues in the persistent infection.

BACKGROUND: Schwann calls are seed cells for constructing tissue engineered peripheral nerves. But their in vitro isolation, culture and purification are difficult. Acellular nerve allografts (ANA) have a great effect on repairing peripheral nerve defects, and it can induce marrow stromal cells (MSCs) into Schwann-like calls. Accordingly, MSCs can be used as seed calls theoretically in constructing tissue engineered peripheral nerves, instead of Schwann cells OBJECTIVE: To observe the repairing effect of tissue engineered peripheral nerves constructed with MSCs on sciatic nerve defects and to assess the feasibility of repairing peripheral nerve defects with MSCs as seed calls. DESIGN, TIME AND SE'I-rlNG: A randomized control animal experiment was conducted in the laboratory of Basic Medicine Collage of Dali Collage from July to December in 2008.MATERIALS: A total of 30 SD rats were divided randomly into 3 groups, with 10 in each group. In MSCs+ ANA group, end-to-end anastomosis were performed with 10/0 non traumatic suture to broken ends of rat sciatic nerves and tissue engineered nerves cultured using MSCs combined with ANA; In ANA group, ANA were bridged to broken ends of sciatic nerves; In METHODS: The 10ram sciatic nerve defects in rats were repaired using MSCs-constructed tissue engineered peripheral nerves, whose repairing effects were evaluated at week 12 post transplant through sciatic function index (SFI), gastrocnemius wet weight recovery rate, S-100 immunohistochemical staining and electron microscope observation, etc. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Morphological changes of calls were observed during the culture of compounds; SFI and gastrocnemius wet weight recovery rates were detected after transplantation; New myelinization, axon growth and nerve fiber distdbuUon were observed with toluidine blue staining; Schwann calls growth and nerve fiber regeneration were observed with transmission electron microscope combined with S-100 protein immunohistochemical staining method.RESULTS: The detection results showed that SFI and gastrocnemius wet weight recovery rate were higher in the MSCs+ ANA group than in the ANA group (P < 0.05). Compared the ANA group, the MSCs+ ANA group had more S-100 proteins expressed in its compounds obviously, and the number, the diameter of its myelinated nerve fibers as well as its myelin sheath thickness were all greater than those of the ANA group (P < 0.05). The repairing effect of the MSCs+ ANA group was close to that of the autotransplantation group.CONCLUSION: MSCs-constructed tissue engineered nerves have a better effect on repairing peripheral nerve defects than ANA, and MSCs as seed cells have a high value in peripheral nerve tissue engineering.

BACKGROUND: As unspecific antagonist of opiate receptor, naloxone is widely used for multiple diseases which are related with abnormal release of endogenous opium. At present, researches suggest that large dosage of naloxone is used at early period can decrease death rate of patients with acute craniocerebral injury and promote neural functional recovery.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of naloxone on improving the nervous function of rats with acute craniocerebral injury and to analyze effectively.DESIGN: Randomized grouping design based on the experimental animal.SETTING: Beijing Neurosurgical Institute.MATERIALS: Totally 250 SD rats were divided randomly into 0.3, 1.0,3.0, 9.0 mg/kg naloxone group, positive control group and negative control group.METHODS: Craniocerebral injured model was established with Feenly free fall struck, and the medicine was given 30 minutes after injury. The rats of the first four experimental group were injected transpeniponeally with naloxone hydrochloride by 0.3 mg/kg, 1.0 mg/kg, 3.0 mg/kg and 9.0 mg/kg respectively once a day; meanwhile, the control groups were given 2 mg citicoline sodium for injection and 0.5 mL normal saline per rat respectively. The longest time was 14 days.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: MNSS neural functional score was used every day. The brain edemas of 8 rats in each group were measured with wet-dry weight methods on the second and the fourth day after head trauma.RESULTS: Among 250 rats, 172 entered the final analysis. The nervous function of rats in naloxone groups was better than the two control groups (P < 0.01), and that in 1, 3 and 9 mg/kg naloxone group were better than 0.3 mg/kg group (P < 0.05), but there were no significant differences a mong the three naloxone groups (P > 0.05). The brain edemas of rats in naloxone groups were lighter than that in the control groups (P < 0.05), and that of 1, 3 and 9 mg/kg groups were lighter than 0.3 mg/kg (P < 0.05), but there were no significant differences among these three groups (P > 0.05).CONCLUSION: Naloxone can decrease the brain edemas of rats with traumatic brain injury, promote the nervous function recovery, and the treatment effect changes with the dosage during some range.Therefore, the experiment illustrates that naloxone can decrease the brain edemas of experimental brain injury in SD rats and improve the nervous function, but the effect of naloxone is associated with the dosages in some range.

BACKGROUND: Xinjiang is a multi-ethnic region with significant differences in local geographical position, economic development and climatic environment. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the occurrence and development tendency of birth defects, disease categories and disparity among different ethnic groups and regions in Xinjiang.METHODS: A stratified cluster random sampling observation was performed in 13 counties (cities) according to the status of ethnical distribution and local economics of Xinjiang. Quarter Report Sheet on Babies and The defect babies register card were filled as the scheme of Chinese birth defect monitoring, and ICD10 diagnostic code was adopted in birth defect diagnosis. The birth defects rate was calculated from January 2005 to December 2008, and the disease categories and disparity among different ethnic groups and regions in Xinjiang were analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The average incidence rate of birth defect was 9.74‰, which was dramatically descended in 2006 and ascended afterward yearly. The incidence rate of countryside was higher than city, and male more than female. In geography, south of Tianshan Mountain was higher than north and east in birth defect incidence. Among major ethnic groups in Xinjiang, Sibe and Uygur had the highest birth defect incidence rate, followed by Man, Hazakh, and Han. The birth defect incidence of Han, Uygur and Hazakh people showed descend tendency, Hui, Mongolia, and Man people fluctuated, yet Sibe's rate had a change of rise and fall. The first five birth defect entities were neural tube deformity, cleft lips, anencephaly, congenital hydrocephalus and cleft palate combined with cleft lips. The birth defects rates are different from ethnic groups and regions in Xinjiang.
