Objective To examine the blood lead levels and influencing factors among infants living in urban areas in Taiyuan.Methods A total of 216 healthy infants living in urban areas in Taiyuan who came to seek routine care during 2010 and 2012 were enrolled using questionnaire survey.Blood samples were collected and lead was meas-ured according to standard procedures.Results The total blood lead level was (31.54 ±22.24)μg/L,there was no significant difference between male and female.The infants whose blood level was less than 50 μg/L took the biggest proportion(80.56%),the infants whose blood level was among 50 -99μg/L and whose blood level more than 100μg/L were 19.44% and 0.00% respectively.Coal to cook,mother often catching hair,using prickly heat,sucking on the hand,washing hands before meals,living in storefront and playing time in roadside were associated with infantile blood lead level.Conclusion The key influencing factors the of the blood lead levels of infants are infantile living environ-ment and the keeper's awareness of preventing lead.

Objective To identify the chief factors influencing health insurance patients' hospitali-zation expenses so as to provide basis for the control of irrational increase in medical expenses and reform in the mode of medical insurance payment. Methods All the medical insurance cases involving the three disease entities in two hospitals of a certain city for the past three years, which totaled 647, were collected and a statistical analysis was made of the possible influencing factors using multi-stepwise regression analysis. Results The factors influencing the health insurance patients' hospitalization expenses included choice of hospitals, length of stay, performance of operations, proportion of drug fees, and province- wide readjustment of medical service prices. Reducing length of stay and lowering proportion of drug fees were the key to controlling expenses. Conclusion It is imperative to formulate scientific diagnostic and treatment routines and expense standards for single disease entities, speed up and deepen reform in the medical insurance system, and, on the basis of trying out payment based on certain single disease entities, implement payment based on disease entities.

Objective To search for the anticancer active substance from Caesalpinia sappan wood extractions. Methods Crude extracts were extracted from Caesalpinia sappan wood with different solvents.Liquid chromatography was applied to analyze the content of each essential component in the extraction fractions. Trypan blue exclusion test was performed to detect the growth suppression rate of human bladder carcinoma cell line T24 treated by the extraction fractions at different time course (20,40,60,80,100 min).The main component positively correlated with the cell suppression rate was separated out using repeated chromatography, thus the anticancer active monomer was obtained, with purity over 98 ％. The chemical constitution was determined using NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance), mass spectrum and infrared spectrum methods. T24 cell line, human ovarian cancer cell line SKOV3, mice sarcoma S180 and hepatic carcinoma H22 cell were chosen as target subjects, with mitomycin, hydroxycamptothecin as positive control drug, the inhibitory activity of the monomer was tested by trypan blue chromophobia method. Results Among the extraction fractions, R12 has a positive correlation with the cell suppression rate (r100 min=0.941, P＜0.001).Brazilin is the key component in R12.The inhibition rate of brazilin could reach 90.89 ％,98.65 ％,99.82 ％ and 100.00 ％ on T24,SKOV3,S180 and H22 respectively in 40 min at the concentration of 1.2 mg/ml,and its effect is much superior to that of the control drug mitomycin and hydroxycamptothecin. Conclusion Brazilin is one of the essential anticancer principles in Caesalpinia sappan wood.

Objective To investigate the changes of urinary brush border membrane enzymes and serum cystatin C (Cys C) in newborns in order to develop early diagnostic indicators for sclerema neonatorum (SN) renal dysfunction.Methods Sixty-night cases with sclerema neonatorum and 30 cases of normal newborns were enrolled in this study.Of all sclerema neonatorum cases,39 cases were mild and 30 cases were moderate to severe sclerema neonatorum.Immunoca talytic assay method was adapted to detect the level of urinary brush border membrane.The levels of serum Cys C,blood urea nitrogen (BUN),creatinine (Cr) and urinary β32 microglobulin (β2-MG) in two groups were also measured.Results The levels of urinary brush border membrane enzyme,β2-MG and serum Cys C in sclerema neonatorum group were (40.09 ± 7.29) U/L,(4.65 ± 1.33) mg/L and (1.84 ± 0.32) mg/L,higher than those in control group ((23.19 ± 5.62) U/L,(2.49 ± 0.77) mg/L and (1.07 ± 0.25) mg/L; t =10.34,7.47 and 10.55,P ＜ 0.01).The levels of urinary brush border membrane enzyme and serum Cys C in moderate to severe sclerema neonatorum group were (42.06 ± 7.59) U/L and (1.93 ± 0.34) mg/L,higher than those in the mild group ((38.57 ± 6.70) U/L,(1.77 s0.29) mg/L;t =2.24,2.11,P ＜0.05).The abnormality rates of urinary brush border membrane enzyme and serum Cys C in sclerema neonatorum group were 79.7％ (55/69) and 72.5％ (50/69),higher than β2-MG abnormal rate (52.2％ (36/69),x2 =12.95,12.11,P ＜ 0.01).In sclerema neonatorum group,urinary brush border membrane enzyme was positively correlated with β2-MG (r =0.560,P ＜ 0.01),and serum Cys C was positively correlated with BUN,Cr (r =0.314,0.287,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Renal injury is common in SN.Urinary brush border membrane enzyme and serum Cys C are served as the diagnostic parameters for early detection of renal injury in SN.

Capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) was developed to investigate the structure stability of novel camptothecin derivative (L-P) at different pH,the kinetics and thermodynamics of hydrolysis reaction from lactone form to carboxylate form direction at near physiological conditions (pH 7.4,310 K). Uncoated fused-silica capillaries(35 cm×50 μm i. d,with effective length of 26.5 cm) were used. The background electro-lyte( BGE) was 0.025 mol/L sodium phosphate buffer with pH varied at 2.5,4.0,5.0,6.0,7.0,7.4 and 9. 0. The electrophoresis voltage was maintained at 14 kV when the pH of BGE ranged between 2.5 and 5.0,otherwise,the voltage was maintained at 10 kV. The UV detector was set at 260 nm. All samples were introduced using hydrodynamic injection at 5 kPa for 4 s. L-P was found to be lactone form as the solution pH was below 4. 0. As pH increased,the lactone form of L-P would undergo hydrolysis reaction to be carboxylate form. As pH was 9.0,L-P existed almost completely as carboxylate form. The rate constant of the hydrolysis increased as temperature raise. The energy of activation ( Ea) ,the enthalpy ( ΔH) and entropy (ΔS) of the hydrolysis reaction were determined as 72. 6 kJ/mol,10. 5 kJ/mol and 50. 9 J/( mol K) ,respectively. The proposed capillary zone electrophoresis could efficiently separate two pH-dependent structural forms of the novel camptothecin derivative( L-P). The positive enthalpy and entropy values of the L-P hydrolysis indicated that the reaction was endothermic and entropically driven and higher temperature favored.

Objective: This study aims to investigate the correlation between the expression of FoxP3, TGF-β1, and epitheli-al-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in breast cancer and to determine the clinical significance of FoxP3. Methods: The expression of FoxP3, TGF-β1, E-Cadherin, N-Cadherin, Vimentin, and Fibronectin protein were detected in the cancer cells of 74 cases with breast carcinoma via immunohistochemistry. The correlation of FoxP3 protein with clinico-pathologic features of breast carcinoma and the re-lationships among the expressions of FoxP3, TGF-β1, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) were analyzed. Results:The ex-pression rates of FoxP3, TGF-β1, and EMT are 36.5%(27/74), 39.2%(29/74), and 40.5%(30/74), respectively. The FoxP3 protein ex-pression in breast cancer is correlated with lymph node metastasis (P<0.05) but not with other clinico-pathological features (P>0.05). The expression of FoxP3 is also correlated with the expression of TGF-β1. Furthermore, TGF-β1 can induce EMT (P<0.05). Conclu-sion:The expression of FoxP3 is correlated with lymph node metastasis and EMT in breast cancer. Therefore, FoxP3 may be a marker for predicting metastasis.
