Objective:To explore the relationship between the expression of EGFR and STAT3 in human la-ryngeal papilloma and its biological behavior. Method: Reverse transcription polymerasechain reaction(RT-PCR), immunohistochemical staining and Western blot were used to evaluate the mRNA and protein expression of EGFR and STAT3(p-STAT3) in 42 laryngeal papilloma tissues and 15 samples of normal laryngeal tissue, and the rela-tionship between the protein expression of them and clinicpathological parameters was also analysized. Result: The mRNA expression levels of EGFR and STAT3 in laryngeal papilloma tissue were significantly higher than that in normal laryngeal tissue(P<0.05,P<0.01). Protein positive expression of EGFR and p-STAT3 were also detected in a significantly greater proportion of laryngeal papilloma than normal laryngeal tissue by immunohistochemistry and western blot(P<0.01,P<0.05). There was relationship between EGFR and p-STAT3 overexpression in la-ryngeal papilloma(P<0.05). The expression p-STAT3 was correlated with the recurrence and canceration of la-ryngeal papilloma(P<0.05). Conclusion: The EGFR-STAT3 signal transduction pathway may be involved in the pathogenesis of laryngeal papilloma,, and the persistent activation of STAT3 gene plays an important role in the recurrence and canceration of laryngeal papilloma.

We retrospectively analyzed 218 allergen skin prick tests ( SPT ) of the patients with chronic sinusitis with or without nasal polyps( CRSwNP/CRSsNP) before the operation. The proportions of positive SPT in CRSwNP and CRSsNP were compared respectively. The distributions of allergens were the same in all groups. The positive rate of SPT in CRSwNP was higher than that in CRSsNP, with statistical significance(P<0. 05). The positive rate of SPT in CRSsNP was higher than that of the control group, without statistical significance. The recurrence rate in CRSwNP was higher than that in CRSsNP, with statistical significance. The recurrence rate in the allergen-positive patients was higher than the allergen-negative patients, with statistical significance.

Objective To investigate the changes of heart function after pacing in right ventricular inlet septum(RVIS) and right ventricular apex(RVA). Methods VVI pacing was performed in 64 patients who were randomly divided into two groups: RVIS group (33 patients) and RVA group (31 patients). The changes of serum brain natriuretic peptide (BNP),pacing parameters and QRS interval were assessed in 24 hours, 3 months and 1 year after the ventricle was paced effectively. Results When the ventricle was paced effectively,the pacing parameters,including voltage threshold and electrode impedance were similar in different stages between the two groups. In 24 hours, 3 months and 1 year after the ventricle was paced effectively,the QRS interval in RVIS group were obviously narrower than those in RVA group [( 128.0±28.6 ) ms vs ( 150.0 ± 37.1 ) ms, ( 131.0±21.5 ) ms vs ( 153.0 ±28.5 ) ms, ( 130.0 ±19.7 ) ms vs ( 155.0±20.2) ms, P < 0.05 ]. After treatment, the level of serum BNP increased significantly in two groups. The BNP level in R VIS group was significantly lower than that in RVA group (P < 0.05). Conclusion The R VIS pacing is not only as safe and effective as RVA pacing, but also is more consistent with the physiological ventricular activation sequence.

The cholesterol esterase and its oxidase were respectively immobilized onto sol-gel(tetraethyl orthosilicate)and then an enzymatic reaction column was prepared. Hydrolysis of cholesterol ester took place in the presence of cholesterol esterase to form cholesterol under catalysis of cholesterol oxidase, and Cholesterol was oxidized to produce hydrogen peroxide which reacted with luminal in the presence of simulated enzyme hemoglobin to result in the emission of light. Thereupon, a chemiluminescence system combined with flow injection technology by sol-gel immobilized enzyme was developed for the determination of cholesterol including free and total amount in human serum. The CL intensity was well linear with the concentration of cholesterol;liner range of total and free cholesterol was 1.01×10~(-6)～2.02×10~(-4) mol/L with a detection limit of 7.5×10~(-7) mol/L) and 5.0×10~(-8)～2.18×10~(-5) mol/L) with a detection limit of 5.0×10~(-9) mol/L respectively. Contrasted the method) with the biochemical analyzer (TBA-120FR), both the methods had no significant difference. This method has been successfully applied for the detection of cholesterol in clinic serum samples.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of computed tomography (CT)-guided implantation of radioactive ~(125)I seeds in the treatment of residual foci of nasopharyngeal carcinoma after radiotherapy.Methods:Twenty-five nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients who had residual foci after radiotherapy were implanted radioactive ~(125)I seeds from January 2007 to January 2008 in our hospital. Three-dimensional treatment planning system (TPS) was used to calculate the quantity and total dosage of ~(125)I seeds. The radioactive ~(125)I seeds were implanted into residual foci under CT guidance. The dosage distribution of radioactive ~(125)I seeds were verified after surgery. The nasopharyngeal endoscopy CT scans were performed at 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery and the short-term efficacy and adverse reaction were evaluated. Results:Out of the 25 patients, 20 patients had complete response (CR), 2 patients had partial response (PR), 2 patients had no change (NC), and 1 patient had progressive diseases (PD). The overall effective rate (CR+PR) was 88.0%. All patients had no serious postoperative complications. Conclusion:CT-guided implantation of radioactive ~(125)I seed was an effective and safe method in the treatment of the residual foci of nasopharyngeal carcinoma after radiotherapy.
