The erythrocyte complement receptor 1 (ECR1) activity and CR1 quantitative genotype distribution were studied and the mechanisms of decreased ECR1 activity in cerebral infarction revealed. By using red blood cell yeast rosette test ECR1 activities were measured and by using PCR-RFLP CR1 Hind Ⅲ genomic polymorphism detected in the patients with cerebral infarction and healthy controls. The results showed that the level of C3bRR was decreased and the level of CICRR increased in the patients with cerebral infarction as compared with healthy controls (both P<0.05). CR1 quantitative genotype distribution in the patients with cerebral infarction was differed significantly from that of healthy controls (P<0.05). It was concluded that the decrease of ECR1 activity in the patients with cerebral infarction was correlated with CR1 Hind Ⅲ genomic polymorphism.

Non-coding small RNA mainly includes microRNA, small interfering RNA and RNA interacting with PIWI protein.Studies have shown that non-coding small RNA plays an increasingly important role in the epigenetic regulation.Non-coding small RNA is involved in the regulation of gene expression by gene transcription, post-transcription and mRNA translation.Non-coding small RNA is closely related to many human diseases, especially the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of melanoma.

Cell biology is a basic medical subject,and one of earliest learned subjects concerning medical science. The teacher's teaching methods will directly influence students' interest and score. In the article we have compared the two teaching methods, the traditional method regarding teachers as dominating part and self-teaching method regarding teachers as subordinate part. The conclusion has showed that the self-teaching method can improve students' score and easily be accepted by students, compared with traditional teaching method. However,it can not be used too frequently.

Objective To analyze the clinical data,radiological and pathological features of breast cancer which were understated by image,and summarize the causes.Methods The clinical features,radiological features and pathological data of 26 cases of breast cancer were retrospectively analyzed.The preoperative ultrasound and mammography BI-RADS grades of these 26 cases were both ≤ 3,and they were confirmed to be breast cancer by pathology.The clinical and pathological data of 1224 cases of breast cancer in the same period were compared.Results For the 26 cases,100％ were early breast cancer,100％ were HER2 negative breast cancer,and only 1 case had lymph node metastasis.26％ were special type of breast cancer.Mammography showed glandular multi type,and ultrasound showed atypical or typical benign features.Conclusions Breast cancer understated by image shows features of young age,early stage,well differentiated,low malignant degree,not easy to be visualized by mammography,and their ultrasound features are usually atypical.In clinical setting,analysis of the ultrasound and mammography images should be combined with other examination,to decrease misdiagnosis rate.

Objective To observe the clinical effect of dexamethasone combined with dezocine on the ultrasound guided interscalene brachial plexus block.Methods Accordance with the random number table,80 patients with ASAⅠ ~Ⅱ undergoing upper extremity operations were divided into four groups,with 20 cases in each group:group A was treated with 0.45% ropivacaine mesylate 20mL;group B was treated with 0.45% ropivacaine mesylate combined with dexamethasone 0.1mg/kg 20mL;group C was treated with 0.45% ropivacaine mesylate combined with dezocine 0.1mg/kg 20mL;group D was treated with 0.45% ropivacaine mesylate combined with dexamethasone 0.1mg/kg and dezocine 0.1mg/kg 20mL.The onset time,maximum block time,analgesia duration and the incidence of adverse reactions were recorded in the four groups.Results The onset time of group C and group D were faster than group A and group B[group C(3.65 ±0.88)min vs.group A(5.60 ±0.88)min,group B(5.35 ±0.81)min,t =7.303, 6.367,all P =0.000;group D(3.30 ±0.80)min vs.group A,group B,t =8.614,7.678,all P =0.000],the maximum block time of group C and group D were faster than those of group A and group B[group C(8.45 ±1.19)min vs. group A(12.75 ±2.05)min,group B(12.65 ±1.90)min,t =8.583,8.383,all P =0.000;group D(7.80 ±0.89)min vs.group A,group B,t =9.880,9.680,all P =0.000].The analgesia duration of the other groups were longer than those of group A[group B(430.50 ±30.86)min,group C(435.00 ±38.46)min,group D(534.50 ±46.73)min vs. group A(314.50 ±33.32)min,t =9.696,10.072,18.388,all P =0.000],group D was the best(group D vs.group B,group C,t =8.693,8.317,all P =0.000),there were no significant differences between group B and group C (group C vs.group B,t =0.376,P =0.708).In the 80 patients,only one case of group C had postoperative nausea and vomiting symptoms,there were no significant differences between the groups(all P >0.05).Conclusion Dexa-methasone combined with dezocine on the ultrasound guided interscalene brachial plexus block is a method with faster onset time,shorter maximum block time,longer analgesia duration,and it has less adverse reactions and better anesthetic effect,and it is more suitable for upper extremity operations.

Objective To explore the application efficacy of scalp nerve block combined with sevoflurane in craniotomy.Methods Fifty-five patients undergoing craniotomy in pingdingshan second people's hospital of henan province from Mar 2013 to Mar 2015 were randomly divided into observation group (n =28) and control group (n =27).The scalp nerve block combined with sevoflurane was performed in observation group and the sevoflurane intravenous inhalational combined with sufentanil was performed in control group.The changes of MAP and HR were observed before induction,5min after induction,skin incision,break the meninges,operation end and 5rmin after catheter removal.The agitation scale after operation,anesthesia duration,awaking time and dosage of sufentanil were compared.Restults MAP and HR at skin incision,break the meninges,operation end and 5min after catheter removal in control group were significantly increased than those before operation,and significantly higher than those in observation group at same stage of operation,with statistically significance differences (P ＜0.05).The agitation scale of observation group was lower than that of control group,with statistically significance difference (P ＜0.05).There was no significance difference between two groups in anesthesia duration (P＞0.05),the awaking time in observation group was significantly shorter than that in control group and the dosage of sufentanil was significantly reduced in observation group (P＜0.05).Corclusion Scalp nerve block combined with sevoflurane used in craniotomy has advantages in stable vital signs,rapid awaking,less dosage of sufentanil and lower score of agitation,which is suitable for clinical application.

Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) is one of clonal disorders of hematopoietic stem cells.Cytogenetic,molecular genetic and epigenetic aberrances are critical to diagnosis,prognosis and treatment of MDS.5q-,-7/7q-and 20q-are the most frequent cytogenetic aberrance in MDS.Fusion genes,genetic mutation and deletion are the most important mechanisms for every subtype of MDS.Aberrant methylation plays an essential role in both initial and secondary MDS.All these aberrances are very significant for the development and transformation of MDS.Genetic and epigenetic alterations are new targets for MDS diagnosis and treatment.
