0.05),respectively.Conclusion:LED curing light can reach the performance level of halogen curing light and is suitable for routine oral clinical application for resin curing.

Objective To test the hypothesis that calpain 10 gene (CAPN 10) contributes to the genetic susceptibility to type 2 diabetes in Chinese population.Methods Case control study. PCR RFLP method was used to determine the distribution of allele and genotype frequencies of SNP43 polymorphism (G/A) and SNP 19 polymorphism (1/2) in the intron 3 of calpain 10 gene in 211 type 2 diabetes patients and 127 normal control subjects. Results The frequency of "G" allele of the SNP43 in type 2 diabetes patients was significantly increased as compared with that in the control subjects (91.9% vs 85.8%, P =0.01). The distribution of allele and genotype frequency of the SNP19 (1/2) polymorphism were equal in diabetes and control groups.In addition, we also observed the association between GG genotype and increased body mass index and waist to hip ratio in the control group.Conclusion This study suggested that calpain 10 gene may contribute to the genetic susceptibility of type 2 diabetes in Chinese population.

Objective To explore the clinical value of tissue synchronization imaging(TSI) in assessment of the characteristics of myocardium asynchrony in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy(ICM). Methods Thirty-eight patients with ICM were divided into two groups: 26 patients without left bundle branch block(LBBB) in group A, and 12 patients with LBBB in group B. The control group consisted of 26 normal healthy subjects. According to 2D color,the characteristics of myocardium motion in each group were compared by TSI. The time for reaching systolic velocity peak(Ts) and early diastole velicity peak(Te) were measured separately in 12 segments. Standard deviations of Ts(Ts-SD) and Te(Te-SD) as well as difference of Ts(Ts max-min) and Te(Te max-min) of all 12 segments were calculated. The myocardium synchronization were assessed in each group. Results ①91.8% segments in the control group showed normal, with only 8.2% segments were slightly prolonged. TSI of all the ICM patients showed an obvious uneven chroma distribution from green to yellow and then to red. There were far more yellow or red segments than in the control group. ②Ts-SD.Ts max-min of LV 12 segments were significantly prolonged in all ICM groups compared with that in the control group ( P <0. 05). Systolic asynchrony was more obvious in group B than in group A. ③Te-SD,Te max-min of LV 12 segments were significantly prolonged in ICM groups than in the control group ( P < 0. 05). Diastolic asynchrony was more obvious in group B than in group A( P < 0. 05). ④Compared with that in the control group, postsystolic shortening(PSS) was common in patients with ICM. 32. 4% segments of group A were detected PSS.and 56. 0% segments of group B were detected PSS. Conclusions Left ventricular systolic and diastolic mechanical asynchrony is obvious in patients with ICM and PSS is common among them. Systolic and diastolic mechanical asynchrony is more severe in ICM patients with LBBB. TSI is the optimal means to evaluate the characteristics of asynchronous myocardial contraction.

Objective To evaluate Test-retest reliability of Mandarin monosyllable lists with equivalency in audibility in hearing loss group. Methods Mandarin monosyllable lists were used to test 18 adults with moderate-to-severe sensorineural hearing loss. Each people was tested twice with an interval of several days and with same test conditions including same lists order, same presentation level, and same tester. List number to begin with was different between people. All test lists for one patient were presented by 30 dB above his hearing threshold levels. Recognition scores were recorded in both tests. The results were analyzed using SPSS. Results Pearson product-moment correlation between the scores of two tests was 0. 931 (P<0. 001). The average critical difference was 16.3 % at the 95 % confidence level after the scores transformed into "rationalized" arcsine unit (RAU). Conclusion The average critical difference is 16. 3% at the 95% confidence level which is less than in the normal hearing group. All the lists have good test-retest reliability, and can be used in extensive clinical practice.

We identified and characterized the full-length genome of a GI.8 norovirus strain CHN/Huzhou/N10 isolated in an outbreak in Huzhou,China.The full-length genome of CHN/Huzhou/N10 was amplified using five pairs of primers which were designed according to the full-length GI norovirus genome sequences published in GenBank database.Multiple alignments were performed using DNAStar,the phylogenetic relationship of CHN/Huzhou/N10 and the representative NoV (Norovirus) strains from each genogroup were assessed using the software MEGA version 6.0.The viral genome of CHN/Huzhou/N10 was 7 740 nucleotides in length,which was consist of three ORFs spanning 5-5 404 nt (ORF1),5 388-7 019 nt(ORF2),and 7 019-7 660 nt (ORF3),respectively.Phylogenetic analysis based on polymerase and capsid sequences VP1 and VP2 region indicated that CHN/Huzhou/N10 belonged to GI.8 genotype.The amino acid sequence analysis of the VP1 region showed that CHN/Huzhou/N10 had 16 mutations compared with the representative strain Boxer/2001/US,12 of these variations were located in the P2 subregion.Moreover,a single amino acid change (T347S) occurred at histo-blood group antigen (HBGA) binding site Ⅱ and another single amino acid change (T397E) occurred at HBGA binding site Ⅲ.In this study,the first full genome of norovirus GI.8 isolated in Huzhou,China was extensively characterized.The data would be helpful not only for the epidemiology study,but also for the diagnostic tool development and effective vaccine design in the future.

Background:Resistance of Helicobacter pylori(Hp)to antibiotics is the primary reason for failure of Hp eradication therapies. It has been reported that there are regional differences in the resistance rate of Hp to commonly used antibiotics. Monitoring the regional Hp resistance status is helpful for improving the eradication rate in local area. Aims:To investigate the resistant spectrum of clinical Hp strains to commonly used antibiotics in Jiaxing Area,Zhejiang Province. Methods:A total of 17 402 patients who underwent gastroscopy from Jan. 2009 to Dec. 2013 at Jiaxing First Hospital were recruited for Hp culturing by using gastric antral biopsies. Then a drug sensitive test was performed for the Hp strains obtained from the culturing. Sensitivity of these Hp strains to metronidazole,amoxicillin,gentamicin,furazolidone,clarithromycin and levofloxacin was determined. Results:Among the 17 402 cases of gastric antral biopsies,5 898(33. 9% )were positive for Hp culturing. Drug sensitive test revealed that the resistance rate of metronidazole was extremely high in all year and age groups;the resistance rates of clarithromycin and levofloxacin were increasing by years;and the resistance rates of furazolidone,amoxicillin and gentamicin were considerably low in all year and age groups. When two antibiotics were combined,amoxicillin and gentamicin accounted for the lowest resistance rate,and the next were amoxicillin and furazolidone,and gentamicin and furazolidone,respectively. Conclusions:The clinical Hp strains isolated from all age groups in Jiaxing Area,Zhejiang Province are highly resistant to metronidazole,therefore it is not recommended to be used in first line eradication regimen. Amoxicillin combined with gentamicin/ furazolidone is an ideal antibiotic combination for patients with Hp infection in all age groups;and combination of gentamicin and furazolidone is recommended to patients who are allergic to penicillin.

[Abstract ] Objective Clinically, the necessity of acid suppression treatment in vocal leukoplakia is still controversial .This paper aims to investigate the roles of LPR in the pathogenesis and pathological process of vocal leukoplakia , and to clear the signifi-cance of acid suppression in the treatment of this disease through observing the influence of laryngopharyngeal reflux ( LPR) on the symptoms of postoperative vocal leukoplakia . Methods We collected 97 cases underwent vocal leukoplakia surgery from June 2013 to December 2015 in the Department of Otorhinolarygology Head and Neck Surgery , Nanjing General Hospital of Nanjing Military Re-gion.According to the results of ambulatory 24-hour double probe ( simultaneous esophageal and pharyngeal ) pH monitoring ( pH-me-try), the patients with vocal leukoplakia were divided into LPR group (n=26, laryngopharyngeal reflux) and non-LPR group(n=71, non-laryngopharyngeal reflux).Meanwhile, the patients in LPR group were then randomly divided into acid-suppressing group(n=13, oral esomeprazole ) and non-acid-suppressing ( n=13, oral placebo ) . All patients received evaluation and compared by electrolaryngendo-scope, voice handicap index-10 ( VHI-10), reflux symptom index ( RSI) and reflux finding score ( RFS) before operation and 8 weeks after operation, and observe the effect of laryngopharyngeal reflux and acid suppression on the symptoms of postoperative vocal leukoplakia . Results RSI and RFS after operation were significantly lower than before operation in LPR group[(13.6±5.8) vs (18.2±6.2), (9.2±2.4) vs (10.6±2.8), P<0.05].The difference of RSI and RFS between before and after operation in LPR group was higher than the non-LPR group[(5.8±1.4) vs (2.3±0.8), (1.2±0.6) vs (0.5±0.2), P<0.05].The difference of RSI and RFS between before and after operation in acid-suppressing group was higher than the non-acid-suppressing group[(6.6±1.2) vs (0.8±0.6), (2.6±0.6) vs (0.5±0.3), P<0.05].VHI-10 after operation was significantly lower than before operation in acid-suppressing group[(12.6±3.6) vs (15.2±4.2), P<0.05] Conclusion Standard PPI administration to patients suffering from vocal leukoplakia accompanied with LPR can alleviate the symptoms of LPR and improve hoarseness .
