The genesis of primary hepatocellular carcinoma(PHC)is a complicated biology process involve in multiple factors.It has been paid more attention to the genetic susceptibility in the pathogenesis and development of PHC.As the third generation of molecular genetic marker,single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP)becomes a hot topic in the research field of PHC.This article summarized the research evolution of the relationship between the susceptible gene SNP of PHC and PHC susceptibility.

Objective To resolve the problem of the accuracy and standardization of STR-PCR typing in forensic practice,construct DXS6804 allelic ladder by molecular clonning and apply them in a population study on the Pumi population in Yunnan,China.Methods PCR was used to produce several different allelic fragments of the locus.After cloning the PCR products,the recombinant plasmids were sequenced.Then we denominated them and used them as template for re-amplification to generate the locus standard ladder.Results The sequencing results confirmed that the size and the construction of the inserts were correct.The genetic polymorphisms of this locus in Yunnan Pumi population of China were studied.Two off-ladder alleles of DXS6804 locus were found.Conclusion This method is of high value for forensic DNA typing to construct standard ladders.DXS6804 is robust for genetic research and forensic application.

OBJECTIVETo observe the effects of electroacupuncture (EA) at "Dazhui" (GV 14) on Wnt-β-catenin signal pathway in annulus fibrosus cells in intervertebral disc in rats with cervical spondylosis.

METHODSForty SD rats were randomized into a control group, a model group, an EA group and a medication group, 10 rats in each one. Rats in the control group were treated with sham operation, only incision on local skin; rats in the remaining groups were made into cervical spondylosis models. After model establishment, rats in the control group and model group received fixed treatment under identical condition; rats in the EA group were treated with EA at "Dazhui" (GV 14), 30 min per treatment; rats in the medication group were treated with intragastric administration of meloxicam tablets. Treatments were both given once a day, and 14 days were taken as one session; there was an interval of 2 days between two sessions, and totally two sessions were given. After the treatments, immunohistochemistry was applied to measure the expression of Wnt, glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) and Axin in annulus fibrosus cells; western blot was used to test the expression of P-β-catenin.

RESULTSIn the control group, there were more positive cells of Wnt, GSK-3β and Axin, which were intensively distributed, deeply colored, and strongly positive; In the model group, there were less positive cells of Wnt, GSK-3β and Axin, which were sparsely distributed and weakly positive. The expression of Wnt, GSK-3β, Axin and P-β-catenin in the model group was less than that in the control group (all P < 0.05); expression of Wnt, GSK-3β, Axin and P-β-catenin in the EA group and medication group was higher than that in the model group (all P < 0.05); expression of Wnt, GSK-3β, Axin and P-β-catenin was not significantly different between EA group and medication group (all P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONEA could delay the degeneration of intervertebral disc, which may be related to EA inhibiting signal pathway of Wnt-β-catenin.

Objective To study the chemical constituents from the exocarp of Juglans mandshurica.Methods The compounds were isolated by Diaion HP-20,Sephadex LH-20,MCI CHP-20,and silica gel column chromatography.Their structures were identified by physicochemical properties and spectroscopic analysis.Results Twelve compounds were elucidated as pinostrobin (Ⅰ),quercetin (Ⅱ),quercetin-3-O-?-D-glucoside (Ⅲ),chrysophanol (Ⅳ),gallic acid (Ⅴ),4-hydroxyl-cinnamic acid methyl ester (Ⅵ),vanillin (Ⅶ),caffeic acid (Ⅷ),4-hydroxylcinnamic acid (Ⅸ),?-sitosterol (Ⅹ),daucosterol (Ⅺ),and 5-hydroxyl-1,4-naphthoquinone (ⅩⅡ).Conclusion The compounds Ⅰ,Ⅳ,and Ⅵ—Ⅸ are isolated from J.mandshurica for the first time.

Objective To evaluate the role of high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) testing in diagnosis of high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN2/3+) and cervical cancer.Methods Total 3426 women with known cytologic abnormality tests were subjected to detect high-risk HPV DNA by hybrid capture II and to have established diagnoses by cervical coloposcopy-directed biopsy test.Results Among 3426 women,45 were cervical cancer,670 were CIN 2/3,and 2711 were CIN 1 or other benign lesions based on the cervical histologic results. Compared with the women with CIN 1 or other benign lesions,the women with CIN 2/3+ had higher positive rates of HR-HPV. Higher load of HR-HPV was more common among women with cervical lesions than those without. Fifty-seven women who were transiently HR-HPV positive did not develop CIN2/3+ during follow-up.Conclusions Our data suggest that a high viral load could be used as a short-term marker of CIN 2/3+,and women repeatedly tested positive for HR-HPV are at risk of developing CIN2/3+. Detecting HR-HPV and follow up the positive women would be useful in diagnosis of CIN2/3+.

Objective To describe the application situation, existent problems and insufficiencies of the electronic medical record (EMR) based on XML, and discuss the future development and requirement of EMR. Methods In recent three years, the application practice and current development condition of EMR based on XML were summarized. Results The EMR based on XML was provided considerable convenience and advantage for writing of medical record and the monitor of medical quality. Conclusion The electronic medical records are an important part of client information system (CIS), has become a necessary part of hospital informationization, and its extensive application has a long way to go.

Objective:To detect the clinical features of vulvar and vaginal intraepithelial neoplasias(VIN and VAIN,respectively).Methods:Total 148 women were performed vulvar or vaginal coloposcopy-directed biopsy pathology tests,from Sep.2004 to Dec.2007.Results:Among 148 women,vulvar or vaginal histologic results were vulvar cancer for 1,VIN or VAIN 2,3 for 23,VIN or VAIN for 16,condyloma for 61,vulvitis and vaginitis for 47.Eighty-five percent(33/39) women with VIN or VAIN 2,3 were more than 30 years old.Compared to women with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia(CIN),women with VIN or VAIN were older.The rate of high-risk HPV DNA in women with vulvar or vaginal lesions was 84%(84/100).VAIN occurred mainly in the upper vagina(90%,69/75).VIN or VAIN often accompanied or followed CIN or cervical cancer(79%,31/39),and VIN or VAIN 2,3 often accompanied or followed CIN 2,3 or cervical cancer(70%,16/23).Conclusion:Our data suggest that women with high-risk HPV infection are at risk of developing VIN or VAIN 2,3.The vulva and vagina should be carefully inspected by colposcopic examination at the time of colposcopy for any abnormal findings.
