A colorimetric self-indicating probe for glucose was constructed by self-assembly of MnO2 nanosheets (MnO2 NSs) and glucose oxidase(GOD) in this paper.Under the weak acidic medium,glucose oxidase specifically catalyzes glucose into gluconic acid and hydrogen peroxide.The by-product of hydrogen peroxide could efficiently dissolve the MnO2 nanosheets,resulting into a significant decrease of the characteristic absorbance at 374 nm assigned to MnO2 NSs.Furthermore,the absorbance difference was linearly proportional to the concentration of glucose ranging from 1 to 20 μmol/L The fitted curve could be used for quantification of glucose with a correlation coefficient of 0.990 1.And the detection limit as low as 0.1 μmol/L could be reached based on the definition of three times of the deviation of the blank signal (3σ) and there was negligible interference with other co-existing amino acids,anions,cations and protein,which indicated high sensitivity and selectivity of the hybrid probe.The construction strategy of designated probe is readily generalized in principle for detection of numerous analytes in view of reactive property of MnO2 and the diversity of enzymes.

Objective To explore the clinical significance of application of trans-abdominal Heller combined with Dor fundoplication for esophageal achalasia in the elderly.Methods Clinical data of 9 patients with esophageal achalasia undergoing trans-abdominal Heller combined with Dor fundoplication from Oct.2009 to Dec.2013 were collected.The postoperative effects and complications were analyzed.Results The operations were successful in the 9 patients with no conversion to open operation and no complications.The maximum esophageal diameter was reduced to (1.94 ± 0.76) cm from (3.69 ±-1.34) cm (P＜ 0.05).Rest lower esophageal sphincter pressure declined by 12.18 mmHg in average (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa,P＜0.05).Dysphagia score fell to 2.49 points from 7.88 points (P＜0.05).There were no retrosternal pain and dysphagia,stenosis and food retention in the lower esophagus and cardia place,and obvious expansion in esophageal.There were statistically significant differences in the above indexes.Conclusions The trans-abdominal Heller combined with Dor fundoplication can significantly improve the symptoms of esophageal achalasia in elderly patients,and effectively prevent postoperative gastroesophageal reflux,and has the characteristics being minimally invasive and fast,and fewer complications.

Objective To analyze the clinical application of detecting anti Mullerian hormone (AMH) in the patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).Methods A total of 480 cases with PCOS and 500 cases of healthy females were selected in the study.The levels of AMH in the patients with PCOS were compared between the two groups.Results The levels of AMH,luteinizing hormone (LH),testosterone (T) in patients with PCOS were significantly higher than those in the healthy control group (P＜0.05).Differences of the levels of estradiol (E2) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) in patients with PCOS and thosein healthy control group had no statistical significance(P＞0.05).As the age increased,the level of AM H obviously declined.Conclusion The level of AMH in patients with PCOS is obviously higher than that in the healthy ones,it declines with the age increasing.

Objective To explore the change of signal value in the fetal frontal lobe with gestational age in normal second-third trimester fetuses.Methods MRI findings of 125 normal second-third trimester fetuses were divided into 5 groups according to gesta-tional age (unit:week)including 1 7-21,22-26,27 -31,32 -36,37 -40,respectively.The signal values were measured in inferior frontal,middle and upper,respectively.Results The signal value of fetal frontal lobe in 5 groups were 387.38 ± 1 66.75,354.46 ± 1 74.78,342.24±141.23,338.90±1 10.94,310.23±1 18.62,respectively.The signal value was 341.77 ±149.22,35 1.00±145.1 6, 342.85±140.61 in inferior frontal,middle and upper,respectively.The signal value of frontal lobe was 350.34±147.68 in the left and 340.73±144.29 in the right.There were no significant statistical differences on fetal frontal lobe signal value in each group (P>0.05).But the signal value in the frontal lobe had a gradually decreasing trend with fetal age,along with the signal value in the central frontal was higher than the other two parts of the frontal lobe and the left is slightly higher than the right.Conclusion The signal values in frontal lobe of normal second-third trimester fetuses were gradually decreased as gestational age increasing,with the signal values in central frontal lobe was higher than that of in margin of frontal lobe,and the left side was slightly higher than the right.

Lignin degradation products are toxic to microorganisms, which is one of the bottlenecks for fuel ethanol production. We studied the effects of phenolic ketones (4-hydroxyacetophenone, 4-hydroxy-3-methoxy-acetophenone and 4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxy-acetophenone) derived from lignin degradation on ethanol fermentation of xylose and cellular lipid composition of Pichia stipitis NLP31. Ethanol and the cellular fatty acid of yeast were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Results indicate that phenolic ketones negatively affected ethanol fermentation of yeast and the lower molecular weight phenolic ketone compound was more toxic. When the concentration of 4-hydroxyacetophenone was 1.5 g/L, at fermentation of 24 h, the xylose utilization ratio, ethanol yield and ethanol concentration decreased by 42.47%, 5.30% and 9.76 g/L, respectively, compared to the control. When phenolic ketones were in the medium, the ratio of unsaturated fatty acids to saturated fatty acids (UFA/SFA) of yeast cells was improved. When 1.5 g/L of three aforementioned phenolic ketones was added to the fermentation medium, the UFA/SFA ratio of yeast cells increased to 3.03, 3.06 and 3.61, respectively, compared to 2.58 of the control, which increased cell membrane fluidity and instability. Therefore, phenolic ketones can reduce the yeast growth, increase the UFA/SFA ratio of yeast and lower ethanol productivity. Effectively reduce or remove the content of lignin degradation products is the key to improve lignocellulose biorefinery.

We injected collagenase into the lumbor disc(20 cases)or outside the lumbar disc(230 cases)for treating the patients with lumbar disc herniation from December 1994 to August 1996.200 cases had been followed up.The results were excellent or good in 91%.The authers in- troduced the operative method and its indications in detail,and suggested that chemonucleolysis is sate,good and easy to be operated with littlecomp lieation.Herniation more than 10mm in with cal- cification,lateral recess stenosis or recumance after the laminectomy are not the absolute contraindi- cations.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disorder primarily occurred in small joints.Our previous studies suggested that sufficient lymphatic drainage was favorable for the recovery of RA.This study aimed at exploring the effect of Er Chen combined with Tao Hong Si Wu Tang (ECSWT) on RA in TNF transgenic (TNF-Tg) mice.Ten-week old TNF-Tg mice and WT littermates were detected with indocyanine green-nearinfrared (ICG-NIR) lymphatic imaging system before and after accepting the 12-week intragastric administration of ECSWT.All ankle joints were assessed by micro-CT scanning.According to three dimensional images of Micro-CT,it was found that the ankle joints in the TNF-Tg group were much eroded compared with the control group.The bone mass and structure were protected after the treatment of ECSWT.ICG-NIR results showed that lymphatic clearance rate of the TNF-Tg group decreased compared with those of the control group.In comparison with the TNF-Tg group,ECSWT promoted the repair of lymphatic function.Compared with the control group,the pulse value of the TNF-Tg group declined;while this condition could be rescued by ERSWT.In conclusion,ECSWT mitigated bone erosion of astragalus bone area in TNF-Tg mice in contrast to the saline mice,while promoted the pulse value and clearance of lymphatic vessels afferent from footpad to popliteal lymph node,implying that ECSWT was a promising agent for treating RA through its promoting lymphatic drainage function effects.

Objective To explore the expression of Speckle-type POZ protein-like(SPOPL)in human glioma tis?sues and its relationship with clinical pathological parameters and prognosis. Methods Immunohistochemical and west?ern blotting method were used to detect SPOPL expression in glioma tissues and tumor peripheral tissues in 68 cases of glioma patients including 32 cases of low grade gliomas (WHO I- II), and 36 cases of high grade gliomas (WHO III-IV). T test,χ2 test, Kaplan-Meier method and the Cox regression model were used to analyze the relationship between the expression and clinical indicators. Results The expression of SPOPL was significantly lower in gliomas than in tumor pe?ripheral tissues (t=-8.754, P<0.05), the expression of SPOPL was lower in high pathological grade tissues than in low grade of glioma tissues (t=-13.552, P<0.05). SPOPL expression was associated with pathological grade ( χ2=4.023, P<0.05). Cox regression model showed that the tumor pathological grade and different SPOPL protein expression were inde?pendent risk factors for the prognosis of patients with glioma. Conclusions SPOPL may be a biomarkers of human brain gliomas and can help to evaluate the prognosis of brain glioma.
