Objective To evaluate the mechanism of immunosuppressive activity of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D_3 and provide a theoretical basis for clinical use. Methods Different inbred strain male BALB/C (H-2d) and male C57BL/6(H-2b) mice were used as skin transplantation donors and recipients, respectively. After operation C57BL/6 mice were conditioned with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D_3 2.5 ??g/kg every day, Cyclosporine A (CsA) po 25 mg/kg every day separately or unitedly. Ten days after transplantation, the recipients were sacrificed, and the spleens were collected. The mouse splenic T lymphocytic subsets, mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR), the activity of natural killer (NK) cells were determined. Results The mean survival time (MST) of skin allografts was prolonged from ( 9.75 ? 0.89 ) days to ( 13.13 ? 1.13 ) days by treatment of the recipient mice with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D_3. CD3 + and CD4 + subset percentage in 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D_3 group was lower than that in control group CD3 + ( 40.19 ? 4.25 )% vs ( 48.70 ? 7.19 )%, P

Objective:To detect the effect of EphrinA1-Fc on the phosphorylation of EphA2 and extracellular signal-regulated ki-nase (ERK) in 786-O renal carcinoma cells (RCCs). Methods:The soluble ligand EphrinA1-Fc was used to inhibit the 786-O RCCs in vitro. Western blot analysis was used to examine the phosphorylation of EphA2 and ERK1/2 in the 786-O RCCs at different time points. Results:After the intervention with EphrinA1-Fc for 5, 10, 30, and 60 min, the expression of p-EphA2 increased (F=9.392, P=0.025) as well as that of p-ERK (F=4.428, P=0.041). No p-EphA2 and p-ERK expression was observed in the pre-intervention group. Conclusion:One of the possible mechanisms of the inhibitory effect of EphrinA1-Fc on tumor metastasis and recurrence involves the phosphorylation of EphA2 by EphrinA1-Fc, leading to the degradation of EphA2.

Objective To understand the risk factors of neurogenic pulmonary edema in the patients with severe hand foot and mouth disease(HFMD). Methods According to neurogenic pulmonary edema or not ,79 patients with severe HFMD were divided into two groups. The difference was analyzed on the clinical symptoms, signs,the outcomes of laboratory and electroencephalogram (EEG) examination between the two groups. Then the risk factors of neurogenic pulmonary edema was analyzed by logistic regression analysis.Results There were significant differences of the EV71 infection rate,high body temperature,myoclonia,limb weakness,the disability of eyeball regulation,tachycardia, hypertension or hypotension, the extension of capillary filling time, leucocytosist, creatine kinase isoenzyme, hyperglycaemia between two groups. However, there were no significant differences of fever, fever time, vomiting, somnolence, convulsion, limb tremor, c-reactive protein and EEG between two groups. Tachycardia, hypertension or hypotension, hyperglycaemia were significant risk factors for neurogenic pulmonary edema by logistic regression analysis. And hyperglycaemia was the most significant prognostic factor(odd ratio 27. 075, P = 0. 000 2). Conclusion Tachycardia, hypertension or hypotension,hyperglycaemia are the significant risk factors for neurogenic pulmonary edema. It is especially important for hyperglycaemia to predict neurogenic pulmonary edema.

Objective To analyze the failure rate and failure factors related to ventilator weaning off in children. Methods Clinical data of 214 patients who received mechanical ventilation in pediatric intensive care unit of Tianjin Children's Hospital from Jan 2005 to Dec 2008 were analyzed retrospectively. Results There were 141 planned extubation events,122 of which were successful and 19 of which were unsuccessful.The failure rate of planned extubation was 13.5%. The failure rate of infants less than 6 months was higher than that of infants more than 6 months, but there was no significant difference ( 15.0% vs 9. 8%, P ＞0.05). The success rate of extubation in pneumonia cases (90. 7% )was higher than that in others (P ＜0. 05 ). The duration of mechanical ventilation had no effect on success rate of extubation ( (7. 64 ± 5.68 ) d vs (6. 95 ± 3. 14) d, P ＞ 0. 05 ). The duration of corticosteroid treatment after extubation in the successful group was less than that in the failure group ( ( 12. 35 ±9. 69) h vs ( 18.63 ± 12. 17) h,P ＜0. 05). According to the result of multiple linear regression analysis ( R2 = 0. 093), airway obstruction was the high risk factor of the extubation failure( F = 14. 256, P ＜ 0. 001 ). Conclusion Currently,weaning from mechanical ventilation in PICU depends on the combination of pediatricians' experience and objective indicators. The key point for improving the success rate of exubation is that we should explore reasonable and feasible extubation protocol and discover and exclude the related factors of exubation failure as earlier as possible.

Objective To find the best model parameters through Monte Carlo simulation of 6 MV flattening-filter-free (FFF) beams in TrueBeam accelerator, and establish the foundation for the further study of the clinical dosimetry on 6 MV FFF X-rays.Methods Using the BEAMnrc and DOSXYZnrc codes, the percentage depth dose (PDD) and the off-axis ratio (OAR) curves of field ranges from 4 cm ×4 cm to 40 cm × 40 cm were simulated for 6 MV FFF X-ray by adjusting the incident beam energy, radial intensity distribution and angular spread, respectively.The simulation results and measured data were compared, where the optimal Monte Carlo model input parameters were acquired.Results The simulation was most comparable to the measurement when the incident electron energy, full width at half maximum (FWHM) and the spread angle were set as 6.1 MeV, 0.75 mm and 0.9°, respectively.The deviation of 1 mm (position)/1％ (local dose) could be met by the PDD of all tested field sizes and by the OAR when the fields sizes were no larger than 30 cm ×30 cm.The OAR of 40 cm ×40 cm field sizes fulfilled criteria of 1 mm (position)/1.5％ (local dose).Conclusions Monte Carlo simulation agrees well with the measurement and the proposed model parameters, which can be used for further clinical dosimetry studies of 6 MV FFF X-rays.

Objective To compare the dosimetric difference between jaw tracking technique (JTT) and static jaw technique (SJT) in dynamic intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) for preoperative radiotherapy of rectal cancer patients.Methods Jaw tracking and static jaw were used to develope the intensity-modulated plans for 10 patients respectively.For all the patients,the dose to surrounding tissues was minimized as low as possible,the 95％ volume of the planning target volume (PTV) and planning gross target volume (PGTV) satisfy the prescribed dose.The doses of the planning target volumes,organs at risk and normal tissue were detected by dose-volume histogram.Two groups of treatment plan dose were verified by ionization chamber array 2D-Array 729 and OCTAVIUS (PTW) phantom.Results The treatment plans of two groups could satisfy the clinical requirements.There was no significant difference between the maximum and the mean dose of target.The volumes of jaw tracking dynamic intensity-modulated radiotherapy were lower,including the V5,V10,V20,V30,V40 (volumes receiving 5,10,20,30 and 40 Gy,respectively),mean dose(D) for body and V10,V20,V30,D for bilateral femoral head,bladder,and small intestine.There was significant difference for the results (t =-2.32-12.24,P ＜0.05).The verification results showed that the treatment plans were all passed the dosimetric verification.Conclusions Jaw tracking intensity-modulated radiotherapy and jaw fixed IMRT plan could achieve equal dose coverage in patients with rectal cancer,while jaw tracking techniques could reduce normal tissue dose and organs at risk dose.

Objective To investigate the relationship between polymorphisms in mitochondrial displacement-loop (mtDNA D-loop) and renal cell carcinoma. Methods Fifty-nine patients with clear cell renal cell cancer (renal cancer group) and 68 healthy control (control group) were selected in this study. The mtDNA D-loop region was amplified and se-quenced using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Data were compared and analysed with the Revised Cambridge Reference Sequence (rCRS) in library of mitochondria. The difference in frequency analyses of mtDNA D-loop region was compared be-tween two groups. Results A total of 143 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) of mitochondria D-Loop region were de-tected in renal cancer group and control group. Compared with control group, there were significantly higher frequencies of 262T and 16293G alleles in mitochondria D-loop region, and significantly lower frequencies of 16298C and 16319A alleles, in renal cancer group (P<0.05). Conclusion The analysis of genetic polymorphisms in the D-loop can be used as predic-tors of renal cell carcinoma and contribute to the early detection in patients of renal cell carcinoma.
