Objective To investigate and evaluate the method of PCR amplification blocking associated with fluorescent probe for the detection of pre-C region of HBV G1896A gene mutation.Methods The primers were designed based on the mutation of HBV DNA 1896 locus.The 3′end of primers was at 1896 site,and it was complemented with the base sequence of mutation template of 1896 site.The mismatching bases were separately introduced into the second and the third base of the primer by inverse counting from the 3′end for increasing the specificity of reaction.Results The PCR amplification for wild plasmid with the mutant primer showed an effectively blocking,but not showed blocking for the mutant plasmid (G1896A).The sensitivity of detection for the mutant plasmid was 5?103 copies/ml.Ninety-five cases of HBV-positive serum was selected randomly and amplified with the mutant primer,and 8 cases were positive HBV G1896A gene mutant(mutant rate of 8.4%).Conclusion The amplification blocking associated with fluorescent probe for the detection of HBV G1896A gene mutation is a effective,convenient method for the detection of clinical samples.

Aim To explore the change of mGluR1α and mGluR5 expression in brain CA1 region after infrasonic action, and the role of antagonist MCPG in rats. Methods 160 SD rats were divided randomly into infrasonic damage group and MCPG therapy group. The two groups were subdivided into control group and 1-time, 7-time and 14-time groups respectively. Rats were exposed to 8Hz, 130dB infrasound two hours each time. Expression of mGluR1α and mGluR5 were detected by immunohistochemical staining and in situ hybridization methods. The morphological changes of neurons after MCPG therapy were observed under microscopes. Results Comparing with the control group, the number and the A value of mGluR1α and mGluR5 positive cells changed after one infrasonic action(P∨ 0.05); and the expression of mGluR1α and mGluR5 in the 7-time group were most obvious(P∨ 0.01); in the 14-time group, they recovered already to normal level. Morphological study confirmed that MCPG protected neurons from infrasonic damage. Conclusion Change of mGluR1α and mGluR5 activity can mediate exciting neurotoxicity after infrasonic action, and it is one of the major factors relative to neurons injury, MCPG had an protective effect on brain damage caused by infrasound.

Massive hemoptysis is one of the most dreaded of all respiratory emergencies and can have a variety of underlying causes. It is mostly caused by bleeding from bronchial circulation. Bronchial artery embolization is now considered to be the treatment of choice for acute massive hemoptysis. Bronchial artery embolization (BAE) is a safe and effective nonsurgical treatment for patients with massive hemoptysis. However, nonbronchial systemic arteries can be a significant source of massive hemoptysis and a cause of recurrence after successful BAE. So knowledge of the bronchial artery anatomy, together with an understanding of the pathophysiologic features of massive hemoptysis, are essential for planning and performing BAE in affected patients. In addition, interventional radiologists should be familiar with the techniques, results, efficacy, safety and possible complications of BAE and with the characteristics of the various embolic agents. Bronchial arterial catheterisation in human via a percutaneous approach has been practiced for 32 years (1973) in the world and 20 years (1986) in China, initially for direct chemotherapy treatment for bronchial malignancies and then for the embolization of patients with massive haemoptysis. A review of clinical experience to evaluate technique,embolic materials,outcome and complications of BAE is presented.

Objectiye To observe the prevalence of prolonged seizures and the changes of biochemical markers of myocardial injury in patients with prolonged seizures after modified electroconvulsive therapy(MECT).Methods Patients treated with MECT or simulated ECT were divided into three groups.Group Ⅰ , 26 patients,experienced at least one prolonged seizure after MECT;group Ⅱ,41 selected patients, had not prolonged seizures at all during a course of MECT treatments and group Ⅲ, 31 patients, received simulated ECT.Biochemical markers of myocardial injury, including phosphocreatine kinase (CK), MR isoenzyme of phosphocreatine kinase (CK-MB), lactate dehydrogenase ( LDH ), α-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase ( α-HBDH ) and cardiac troponin (cTnT) ,were measured immediately, 3 hours later and on the following day after the first prolonged seizure for group Ⅰ ,the same time points as group Ⅰ after the first treatment of MECT for group Ⅱ , immediately after simulated ECT for group Ⅲ.These indexes were compared between the patients of three groups.Results The positive rate ofcTnT was 30.8%(8/26) and 17.1% (7/41)in group Ⅰ and Ⅱ respectively, but no difference was found(P>0.05 ).CK measured immediately after MECT in patients of group Ⅰ was significantly higher than that of group Ⅲ(P < 0.05 ).CK-MB (immediately), LDH ( immediately and 3 hours later) and α-HBDH ( immediately, 3 hours later and on the following day) in patients of group Ⅰ were significantly higher than those of group Ⅱ and Ⅲ measured after MECT or simulated ECT(P<0.05 ).Conclusion More attention should be paid that absolute or relative hypoxemia may lead to minor myocardial injury.

Reduced sulfur compounds ( RSCs) are one of the main pollutant species in the atmosphere, so it is of great significance to develop a rapid and on-line approaches for their detection. In this study, a portable time-of-flight mass spectrometer ( TOF-MS) with magnetic field enhanced photoelectron ionization source was designed to detect RSCs. The photoelectron ionization source was induced from vacuum ultraviolet photons which generated from vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) lamp with energy of 10. 6 eV. The energy of photoelectrons was controlled by adjusting the extraction voltage to produce the photoelectron ionization, and an annular magnet was used in the ionization region to improve the ionization efficiency of photoelectrons. From the simulation result by SIMION software, it was found that the introduction of magnet field made the motion trajectroies of electrons in the helical motion increase and the convergence of electron at the ionization source was achieved. Experimental results showed that after introducing the magnet filed, the sensitivity of H2 S, SO2 and CS2 was improved by a factor of 5. 3, 9. 4 and 6. 9, respectively. With a detection time of 50 s, the limits of detection for H2S, SO2 and CS2 were 0. 14, 0. 52 and 0. 31 mg/m3(S/N=3), respectively. It could be concluded that the portable TOF-MS with magnetic field enhanced photoelectron ionization source has great potential to be applied for on-line monitoring of volatile sulfides at the emission source.
