Objective To prepare and identify the monoclonal antibody (mAb) specific to epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) and explore the function of the mAb.Methods The EpCAM antigen expressed by the prokaryotic expression systems was used to immunize the BALB/c mice,and then the splenic cells from the mice were fused with the Sp2/0 cells to produce hybridomas secreting specific mAb.The positive clones were screened by the ELISA.The western blot analysis was used to identify the reactivity of the mAb to the antigen.Then the immunohistochemistry staining was used to detect EpCAM expression in the 3 primary colorectal carcinoma tissues.Results Three mAb specific to EpCAM were obtained by ELISA tests.Western blot results indicated that these three kinds of antibodies could react to the EpCAM antigen,but no response to the GST tag.Immunohistochemical staining results identified that these mAb could give positive signals to the primary colorectal carcinoma tissues from patients.Conclusion Three mAb specific to EpCAM are obtained and identified,which contributes to the diagnosis and therapy of the carcinoma in the future.

The body temperature was measured by a thermocouple placed in the nasopharynx . Neuromuscular function was monitored by measuring the evoked mechanical response of the adductor pollicis muscle to supramaximal train-of-four (TOF) stimulation (frequency 2 Hz ,wave length 0.2 ms ,intensity 50 mA ,interval 15 s) of the ulnar nerve at the wrist using TOF-Watch SX? .Cisatracurium was intravenously infused at 1-3μg·kg-1 ·min-1 during surgery to maintain neuromuscular block with 1%

Objective To study the association of early prognosis and risk factors about early neurological deterioration (END) in aged patients with cerebral hemorrhage in basal ganglia. Methods One hundred and thirty-nine aged patients with cerebral hemorrhage in basal ganglia were selected. The patients were divided into END group (59 cases) and non-END group (80 cases), the clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were followed up 3 months after discharge, the prognosis was evaluated by modified Rankin scale. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent risk factors of END. Results The incidence of END was 42.4%(59/139). The incidence of unfavourable prognosis in END group was significantly higher than that in non-END group:78.0%(46/59) vs. 30.0%(24/80), and there was statistical difference (P<0.05). The score of Canadian stroke scale (CSS) at admission in END group was significantly lower than that in non-END group: (5.2 ± 2.1) scores vs. (6.9 ± 1.7) scores, but the white blood cell count at admission, hematoma volume and brain ventricle hemorrhage rate were significantly higher than those in non-END group: (10.7 ± 2.9) × 109/L vs. (7.9 ± 2.4) × 109/L, (17.4 ± 14.9) ml vs. (11.2 ± 10.5) ml and 42.4%(25/59) vs. 18.8%(15/80), and there were statistical differences (P < 0.05). There were no statistical differences in sex, age, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, body temperature, random blood glucose, fibrinogen, activated partial thromboplastin time, prothrombin time and the incidences of hypertension, smoking history, stroke, diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia between 2 groups (P>0.05). The Logistic regression analysis results showed that brain ventricle hemorrhage and white blood cell count at admission were independent risks factor for END in aged patients with cerebral hemorrhage in basal ganglia(P < 0.05 or < 0.01). Conclusions The aged patients with cerebral hemorrhage in basal ganglia will be prone to END, the brain ventricle hemorrhage and white blood cell count at admission are independent risks factor for END, and the early prognosis is poor.

?AlM: To study the effects of different position of clear corneal incision of cataract surgery on visual function and quality of life.
?METHODS: ln this study, 126 cases (126 eyes) in our hospital from April 2013 to April 2014 were selected, who were accepted the transparent corneal incision phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation in treatment of senile cataract patients. With digital method were divided into observation group and control group with 63 cases in each group, included the observation group selected the maximum refractive power of the cornea radial axial transparent angle incision, and the control group in the temporal clear corneal incision, compared the two groups of patients with postoperative visual function ( VF) and quality of life ( QOL) , and made statistics of uncorrected visual acuity.
? RESULTS: ln the observation group, postoperative visual function and the scores of quality of life were 80. 3±5. 63 and 80. 9±0. 79, was significantly higher than the control group (74. 9±5. 24) and (76. 5±0. 76). And the postoperative uncorrected visual acuity of patients in the observation group was less than that of the control group, while ≤1. 0 of patients than that in the control group. There was statistically significantdifference (P<0. 05).
?CONCLUSlON: Transparent cornea in cataract surgery to choose the largest cornea diopter longitude as incision can effectively improve the therapeutic effect, especially on the visual function of patients and to improve the quality of life.

Objective To investigate which subfamily genes of T cell receptor (TCR) V? expand predominantly during the course of experimental allergic neuritis (EAN). Methods Using RT-PCR and in situ hybridization techniques,the expression levels of TCR V? 2,6,8,10,14 in the peripheral blood,lymph nodes,peripheral nerves of group EAN and those of the control group were compared. Results In group EAN,the expression of TCR V? 6?8 mRNA increased at the early phage(41.1?1.1 and 74.4?1.9 vs 25.9?1.5 and 26.1?1.6) and became more significantly at the peak of the disease,and resolved to normal at the recovery phage in the lymph nodes.But they amounted up gradually from the early stage to the peak,and then decreased a little in the infiltrating T-lymphocytes in peripheral nerves,the difference was significant.In addition,the expression of TCR V? 8 was notably higher than that of TCR V? 6 in the levels of mRNA. Conclusion The subfamilies of TCRV? genes which restrict the development of EAN due to recognizing the specific antigens are TCRV? 8 and TCRV? 6. T lymphocytes specifically expressing TCR V?6?8 genes are activated and clonally proliferated in the lymph nodes,and then migrate to the involved peripheral nerves,which might induce a series of immune lesions consequently.

Objective To evaluate the bony variations in lumbar vertebral body among the patients with lnmbar disc herniation and determine its significance to microendoscopic discectomy(MED). Methods The CT images of 160 patients who underwent MED for lumbar disc herniation were reviewed. Measurements of vertebral bony dimensions related to surgical procedure were recorded, which included the angle of spinal process and lamina, spinal process direction, length, thickness and angle of the laminar, facet depth, spinal process width, and the distance between facets and lamina. The relationship between the bony variations and clinical outcome was analyzed. Results The majority of anatomic parameters are greater in male patients and in L5S1 segment than those in female and in L 4-5 (P
