Objective To know the situation of upper GI diseases among the residents in Dong tai city. Methods With three levels examination methods of Occult Blood Bead Detector,Gastroscope and pathological examination,residents aged over 30 yrs in Dongtai were screened during Aug 2005 to Sept 2006. Results 70 809 residents,about 6.13% of whole city population,were taken the screen with occult blood bead detector. There were about 28 392 people positive; the positive rate was 40.10%. Among the positive people,there were 8 121 people taking gastroscope inspection,and while 2 294 of them also took the pathological examination. The gastroscope results showed that 4 636 people suffered from chronic superficial gastritis,1 431 rotten gastritis,565 esophagus gastritis,339 chronic & atrophic gastritis,24 suspicious cancers,53 stomach cancer,44 esophagus cancer. Of these 97 cases with cancers diagnosed by gastroscope,87 cases were confirmed by pathological examination,the false positive rate of gastroscope examination was about 10.31%; Among 2 197 of the non-cancer subjects diagnosed by gastroscope,there were 25 cases with cancer diagnosed by pathological method,the false negative rate of gastroscope was 1.14%. For those 112 cancer cases diagnosed by pathology,there were 83 cases (74.11%) who were in the early or middle phase of cancer. Conclusion The prevalence of upper GI diseases in Dongtai City was higher. It should strengthen the education and the improvement of the health situation.

Recent researches show that follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) plays an important regulatory role in the angiogenesis of ovarian cancer by influencing the level of some factors such as hypoxia inducefactor-1 ( HIF-1 ) ,vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Meanwhile, recent studies report that FSH and FSH receptor(FSHR) may also participate in the angiogenesis of other solid tumors like lung cancer. FSH is closely related to the tumor angiogenesis, which provides a novel therapeutic target for anti-angiogenesis thera-py.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of tumor necrosis factor-alpha ( TNF-) and hypersen-sitivity-C reactive protein ( hs-CRP ) in elderly patients with chronic heart failure ( CHF ) .Methods 85 elderly patients with CHF were randomly selected as the CHF group ,and 85 healthy pepole were chosen as the healthy control group .All subjects were taken fasting blood in the morning ,the TNF-αand hs-CRP levels were detected and compared between the two groups .The differences of plasma TNF-αand hs-CRP levels in different grades of CHF patients were also observed .Results The TNF-αand hs-CRP levels of the CHF group were significantly higher than those of the healthy control group(t=110.86,25.63,all P<0.05).With the elevation of heart function classification ,the TNF-αand hs-CRP levels gradually increased ,and compared with the previous grade ,the differences were statistically signifi-cant(F=7.65,16.75,all P<0.05).The results of linear correlation analysis showed that the levels of TNF-αand hs-CRP were negatively correlated with the LVEF (r1 =0.78,P<0.05;r2=0.71,P<0.05).The TNF-αand hs-CRP were positively correlated (r =0.83,P <0.05).Conclusion The plasma TNF-αand hs-CRP levels of elderly patients with CHF are increased ,and their levels are closely related with the heart function .

Objective To study the effect of the mouse angiostatin cDNA gene transfecting into human liver cancer cell line HCC7721 on cell growth, cell cycle phase distribution, cell morphology in vitro and tumorigenesis in vivo , and the mechanisms. Methods The gene fragment of mouse angiostatin cDNA was directly cloned into an eukaryotic expression plasmid pcDNA3.1(+) of the promoter CMV between the multicloning sites HindⅢ and XbaⅠ and confirmed the correct recombinant plasmid pcDNA3.1(+) angio through enzymatic digestion and gene sequencing. Then it was transfected into human liver cancer cell line HCC7721 with liposome, pcDNA3.1(+) as vecter control and liposome as mock control. After 30 day selection by neomycin G418, angiostatin expression at the levels of mRNA and protein in vitro were tested by RNA dot blot and FACS respectively. Cell morphology under was observed light microscope, made growth curves were made, and cell cycle distribution checked in FACS. Animal model was set up to study tumorigenesis in vivo of those cells transplanted subcutaneously in the right hind legs of nude mice BALBc. Microvessel density (MVD) was analyzed and angiostatin expression in the tumor tissues by in situ immunohistochemistry. Results The recombinant eukaryotic expression plasmid pcDNA3.1(+) angio was constructed Auccessfully. After selection of G418 for about 4 weeks there were macroscopic cell clones in the experimental group and vector control group, but no survival cells in the mock control. In vitro angiostatin were expressed in the experimental group, but not in the vector control. There weren't significant changes in cell morphology, cell growth curves and cell cycle distribution between the experimental and the control group. However, the nude mice experiment showed that tumorigenic capability of the experimental cells had been reduced greatly. Immunochemistry study showed that there were much less microvessels and conversely stronger angiostatin positive staining in the tumor tissues than in the control group. Conclusions Mouse angiostatin has no direct inhibition on human liver cancer cell line HCC7721 in vitro , but it inhibits effectively the tumorigenesis of HCC7721 in vivo , which is probably due to its inhibition on tumor angiogenesis in a paracrine path way.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between dyslipidemia and abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), with which as a theory base and proof we may further study about the mechanism of atherosclerosis (AS) leading to AAA. Methods Thirty abdominal aortic aneurysm patients in Guangdong General Hospital from 2013 to 2014 were enrolled into the experimental group and 26 healthy people into the control group. The serum levels of total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high density lipoprotein (HDL), low density lipoprotein (LDL), lipoprotein a (Lpa), nonestesterified fatty acid (NEFA), homocysteine (HCY), apolipoprotein A (ApoA) and apolipoprotein B(ApoB)were tested in the study. The statistical significance of the difference of them was examined by the independent two-sample t-test. Result The serum TG and HCY level in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). The serum ApoA and HDL level in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). The serum levels of TC, LDL, Lpa, NEFA and Apo B had no significant difference in both groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion The serum levels of TG and HCY are increased and the levels of Apo A and HDL are decreased in patients with AAA.

The relationship between Ala/Ser polymorphism in 133 codon of exon 3 region of the RASSF1 gene and genetic susceptibility of lung cancer in Hubei province Han population was investigated by a case-control study. Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) technique was adopted to analyze the polymorphism of codon 133 of exon 3 in the RASSF1 gene of 100 pathologically diagnosed lung cancer patients, and 100 healthy controls. The relationship between different genotypes and the susceptibility of lung cancer was analyzed. Among 200 blood samples from Han people in Hubei Province, including 100 from lung cancer patients and 100 from healthy controls, the frequencies of Ala/Ala, Ala/Ser, Ser/Ser genotype of the RASSF1 in lung cancer patients were 83%, 16%, 1%, and those in healthy controls was 93%, 7%, 0% respectively, with the difference being statistically significant between two groups (P<0.05). The individuals with Ala/Ser genotype had higher risk of suffering from lung cancer, with an OR of 2.341, and 95% CI of 1.009-6.393 respectively. It was concluded that RASSF1Ala133Ser was a susceptible genetic factor of lung cancer. Ala/Ser genotype increased the risk of lung cancer.
