Objective To analyze risk factors and clinical manifestation of coronary lesions in patients with premature coronary artery disease.Methods 128 cases with premature coronary artery disease were selected as CAD group. 128 healthy persons were enrolled into control group from our hospital. The risk factors and clinical manifestation of coronary lesions in patients with premature coronary artery disease in two groups were compared. Results The risk factors of BMI ,hypertension,smoking,fat and familial history of coronary artery disease in two groups were significantly different ( P ＜ 0. 05 ). The levels of TC,TG, LDL-C, ApoB, Lp, Fib of the CAD group were higher than the control group. These factors of two groups were significantly different(P ＜0. 05). The levels of HDL-C and ApoA1 of the CAD group were lower than the control group. These factors of two groups were significantly different ( P ＜ O. 05 ).Conclusion Patients with premature CHD had many clinical cardiovascular risk factors. Preventing CHD to control the cardiovascular risk factor was important.

Purpose To investigate the clinical efficacy of percutaneous radiofrequency ablation and microwave ablation in the treatment of primary hepatic carcinoma.Materials and Methods Ninety-two patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma (116 lesions) were randomly divided into 46 cases of radiofrequency ablation group and 46 cases of microwave ablation group, which were treated with radiofrequency ablation and microwave ablation, respectively, the ablation points and ablation time, complete ablation rate, local tumor progression rate, postoperative complications, hospitalization time, hospitalization expenses, recurrence rate and relapse-free survival rate 1 year, 2 years and 3 years after surgery were compared and analyzed.Results There was no significant difference between the two groups in average ablation points (P>0.05), and the ablation time of microwave ablation group was significantly shorter than that of radiofrequency ablation group (P<0.01). There was no significant difference in complete ablation rate and local tumor progression rate between the two groups (P>0.05). The difference of complete ablation rate and local tumor progression rate between the two groups of tumor <3 cm, tumor 3-5 cm and tumor near the vessel were not statistically significant (P>0.05). There were no significant differences in the incidence of fever, pain in liver area and average length of hospitalization between the two groups (P>0.05). The average hospitalization cost of microwave ablation group was significantly lower than that of radiofrequency ablation group (P<0.01). There was no statistically significant difference of the cumulative recurrence rate for 1 year, 2 years, 3 years after surgery between the two groups (P>0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups in the overall relapse-free survival rate and relapse-free survival rate among tumors with different size of the two groups (P>0.05).Conclusion Using microwave ablation for the treatment of primary hepatocellular carcinoma shows a clinical efficacy and safety as good as radiofrequency ablation. Radiofrequency ablation may have better therapeutic effect for smaller tumors, but microwave ablation may have some advantages for medium or large tumors and tumors located near the vessels.

Objective:To investigate the expressions of tumor stem cell marker CD133 and tumor vascular endothelial cell marker CD105 in lung cancer tissue and their clinical significance.Methods:Streptavidin-biotin-peroxidase complex (SABC)-immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the expression of CD133 and CD105 in 65 cases of lung cancer tissue and 30 specimens of adjacent non-cancerous tissue. The relationship between the expression of CD133/CD105 and tumor size, histological types, differentiation, TNM stage, lymphoid metastasis, and prognosis were analyzed. Results:The positive expression rates of CD133 and CD105 in lung cancer tissues were significantly higher than those in adjacent non cancerous tissues, respectively (69.2% vs 26.7% and 67.7% vs 10.0%, both P<0.05). The positive expression rates of CD133 and CD105 in the group with lymphoid metastasis were higher than those with non lymphoid metastasis, respectively (82.5% vs 48.0% and 80.0% vs 48.0%, both P<0.05). The expressions of CD133 and CD105 were positively correlated with lymphoid metastasis with Pearson coefficient r of 0.35 and 0.32, respectively (P<0.05). No significant correlation was found between the expression of CD133/CD105 and tumor size, histological types, differentiation degree as well as TNM stage(P>0.05). The expression of CD133 was positively correlated with the expression of CD105 in lung cancer tissue with Pearson coefficient r of 0.37 (P<0.05). Postoperative median survival periods of CD133 and CD105-positive group were significantly shorter than the CD133 and CD105-negative groups (37 months vs 66 months,35 months vs 70 months, respectively, both P<0.05). Conclusion:The expression of CD133 and CD105 was associated with lymphoid metastasis and prognosis in patients with lung cancer.Their overexpression implies poor prognosis of lung cancer patients.

Objective To investigate the safety and short-term clinical outcomes of percutaneous targeted positioning bone cement augmentation treatment for osteoporotic compression fracture nonunion. Methods A total of 32 cases of osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture nonunion, with clinical course of more than 6 months between September 2009 and September 2012 were selected. Under local anesthesia and radiological monitoring, targeted positioning puncture was carried out to inject bone cement to strengthen the lesions of nonunion. Visual analogue scale (VAS), activities of daily living (ADL) and radiographic results were compared among preoperative 1 day and postoperative 1 day, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months. Results The operation was successfully completed in 34 vertebrae of the 32 cases. Postoperative radiographic observation found no cement leakage. As compared to preoperative level, the VAS scores significantly deceased at postoperative 1 day, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months (P<0. 05), with significant decrease from postoperative 3 months to 12 months (P<0. 05). At postoperative 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months, the ADL scores significantly increased as compared to preoperation (P <0. 05). No significant differences were seen in vertebral anterior and middle height between the preoperation and postoperation (P>0. 05). Conclusion Percutaneous targeted positioning bone cement augmentation treatment for osteoporotic compression fracture nonunion is safe and effective.

Objective To select excellent tomato mutants by space treatment and to cultivate directly new varieties for production application and good seed resource.Methods Seeds of tomato cultivar were carried into space by scientific experiment recoverable satellite.The main agricultural characters of tomato mutant were observed and analyzed.Results Seeds of determinate growth habit tomato cultivar T10-3-2 were carried into space in 2002 by a recoverable satellite(Shenzhou 4).After cultivation and selection,two tomato variants(H1 and H2) and their offspring populations were obtained in SP2.Variations included quantitative character variations such as maturity,fruit characters and fruit trait,as well as genetic character variations such as changes from determinate growth to indeterminate growth of plant growth habits,and from the no shoulders to the green shoulders of fruits.These two kinds of changes were dominant mutations,and could inherit stably.The research also indicated that variations(amplitude,standard deviation and coefficient of variation) of each generation of two mutants,reduced along with generation increasing.It was showed these characters to be easily stable.Conclusion Tomato seeds loaded on spacecraft can truly form the tomato character variation,and the variation character may be stably inherited.

Objective To select excellent tomato mutants by space treatment and to cultivate directively new varieties for production application.Method Growth dynamics and change of agricultural characters of the mutant of indeterminate growth habit was observed.And the enzymogram and activity of two kinds of main isoenzyme were analyzed.Result An indeterminate growth habit mutant(M1) which derived from a determinate growth habit cultivar(10-3-2) was obtained from the 1st generation after space treatment(SP_1).Being an inherited character,the indeterminate growth habit of the mutant can be expressed from generation to generation.The plant height of M1 was 145 cm,42.0 cm higher than that of the background one(increased by 29.6%),when the background plant height was determined.The main stem diameter of the mutant was 1.22 cm,0.34 cm thicker than that of background parent.However,there were no visible difference in the fruit size and fruit set percentage between them.The biological characters of M1 and its progenies were studied,and the results showed that the indeterminate growth have no side effects on the agronomic characters and fruit quality,and the mutant had a potentiality of higher yield if the condition is suitable.The activity of two enzymes,SOD and POD,was assayed and there were no obvious difference of SOD activities and enzymograms between the mutant and its background parent,but POD activity was much lower in mutant than that in its background parent.Conclusion After observation through 3 generations,it is found that indetermination growth habit is inheritable and stable.

Objective To evaluate the indeterminate growth mutant of tomato derived by space mutagenesis to provide the basis for selecting and cultivating the molecular markers of tomato growth habit. Methods Fifty 10-mer randomly amplified polymorphic DNA(RAPD) primers were used to examine the polymorphism of M1 and 10-3-2. Their polymorphic fragments were cloned, and then were transferred to SCAR markers. Results Of all the 50 10-mer RAPD primers, 44 primers amplified polymerase chain reaction(PCR) products and 2 primers (S165 and S168) amplified stable reproducible polymorphic products. The molecular weight of the specific amplified products were 300 bp and 1 500 bp respectively, therefore they were named as TRS165300 and TRS1681500 temporarily. And TRS1681500 was transferred into stable sequence characterized amplified region(SCAR) marker and this marker could be a specific genetic marker of this indeterminate growth habit mutant. Conclusion Space mutation can produce mutants at DNA level from the loaded materials. The indeterminate growth mutant of tomato is derived by space mutagenesis which can provide a valuable material for studying the regulation and control of tomato growth habit.

Objective:To study the effect of airway IL-4RA gene transfer on asthma-associated expression of STAT6 in the mice of allergic asthma.Methods:Forty BALB/c mice were randomly divided into four groups:blank control,asthma model,asthma model administered by pLNC-laz,and asthma model administered by glucocorticoid and pLNC-IL-4RA.The ten mice in each groups were sensitized by i.p.injection of 10 ?g of OVA emulsified in 40 mg of aluminum hydroxide in a total volume of 200 ?l on the days of 1st,7th and 14th.On the 15th day,the mice were challenged via airways with OVA for 7 days,20 min a day,blank control were sensitized by i.p.injection of 200 ?l pH=7.4 PBS on days 7 and 14.Asthma model was administered by pLNC-laz or pLNC-IL-4RA for 3 days beginning at the 12th day.The mice of the group with glucocorticoid was administered with glucocorticoid on the 15th day for 7 days.24 hours after the last challenge,the mice were sacrificed by bloodletting.Serum OVA-specific IgE and blood Eosinophils were measured.The lungs were fixed by immersion in 10% formalin.Expression of STAT6 was identified by immunohistochemistry.Results:It was shown that pLNC-IL-4RA was integrated to the genomic DNA of pneumonic tissues.Retrovirus-mediated delivery of IL-4RA to airways of the asthma mice weakened airway eosinophilia triggered by either IL-13 or IL-4.Furthermore,IL-4RA delivered by retrovirus was expressed in airways of the mice with allergen sensitization,resulting in significiant reduction of expressing level of asthma-associated STAT6 in the experimental mice of allergic asthma.Conclusion:Retrovirus mediated delivery of IL-4RA to airways reduces expression of STAT6 in pneumonic tissues of asthmatic mice.Thus,the gene theraphy can be a potential therapeutic option to treat and control chronic airway inflammation and asthmatic symptoms.

Objective To investigate the value of external counterpulsation and cervical traction therapy on patients with vertebral artery insufficiency syndrome.

Results There was better therapeutic effects in group C as compared with groups A and B (P0.05). Conclusion External counterpulsation and traction therapy are effective in the treatment of the vertebral artery insufficiency syndrome.

Serum IL-1,IL-6 and IL-8 were determined by subjects-using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA technique) in 40 children with bronchial asthma consisting of 20 cases in the acute stage and 20 cases in the remission stage,and another 20 health children as normal control,respectively.The results showed that the levels of serum IL-1(11.9pg/ml±2.84pg/ml),IL-6(0.75ng/ml±0.3ng/ml)and IL-8(0.08ng/ml±0.05ng/ml)in the acute stage were significantly higher than those in the remission stage(8.41pg/ml±0.05pg/ml(IL-1),0.49ng/ml±0.08ng/ml(IL-6)and 0.02ng/ml±0.01ng/ml(IL-8)) and in the normal children (8.4pg/ml±0.32pg/ml(IL-1),0.4ng/ml±0.09ng/ml(IL-6)and 0.02ng/ml±0.02ng/ml(IL-8)),respectively.Further more,there were a significant positive correlation between IL-1 and IL-6 or IL-8(P＜0.01).It is concluded that IL-1 may involve in the pathologic process of asthma like IL-6 and IL-8,and an inflammatory reaction may still exist in the airway during the remission stage of asthma. The imbalances of cytokine network may probably be important reason as a molecular basis in the asthma pathogenesis.It is suggested that it can be valuable to predict an acute attack of asthma when the levels of these cytokines increase.
