ObjectiveTo detect the gene variation and expression of PLCH1 in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma(ESCC),analyze the function of PLCH1 gene in ESCC and explore its mechanism.MethodsThe copy number variation of PLCH1 in ESCC was analyzed by GISTIC,and the expression of PLCH1 in ESCC and normal esophageal tissues was detected by TCGA database and immunohistochemistry method. The expression of PLCH1 in ESCC cell lines was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(qPCR) and Western blot,and the effects of PLCH1 silencing on the proliferation and migration of ESCC cells were detected by MTT assay,colony formation assay and Transwell assay.Results There was significant copy number amplification of PLCH1 in ESCC(G-scores > 0. 1,P < 0. 05),and the expression levels of PLCH1 mRNA and protein in ESCC were significantly higher than those in normal tissues(F = 36. 00 ～ 1 101. 00respectively,each P < 0. 000 1). After PLCH1 silencing,the ability of proliferation,clone formation and migration of ESCC cells KYESE180 and TE-9 decreased significantly(F = 35. 49 ～ 634. 00 respectively,each P < 0. 001).Conclusion PLCH1 plays an oncogenic role in ESCC,which is of great significance for the metastasis and proliferation of ESCC,and can be used as a potential target for the treatment of ESCC.

Objective To compare the curative effects between microwave endometrial ablation (MEA) and total hysterectomy for the treatment of menorrhagia. Methods Sixty patients with menorrhagia were divided into 2 groups with 30 patients in each group, either to MEA or to total hysterectomy (control group). The intraoperative blood loss, operating time, sparing or unsparing of uterus, and length of recovery of the 2 groups were compared. Results The effective rates for menorrhagia, operating time, and mean blood loss of MEA group and control group was 96% (29/30) and 100% (30/30) (?2=0,P=1.0), (4.0?1.1) min and (68.3?1.9) min (t=-160.42, P=0.00), 0 ml and 50 ml, respectively. Conclusions MEA is a novel minimally invasive method for menorrhagia, and its curative effects are similar to that of total hysterectomy. When considered in terms of sparing of uterus and postoperative recovery, MEA is obviously superior to total hysterectomy.

Digestive tract reconstruction is the main part of gastrointestinal surgery. With the rapid development of technology and widely application in stapling device, more and more surgeons are using stapled anastomosis. Stapled anastomosis is associated with shorter operating time and hospital stay than hand-sewn anastomosis. However, it is not easy to select suitable ones from various staplers and use them correctly. Choice and reasonable application of staplers for anastomosis in gastrointestinal surgery are summarized and evaluated in this article.

Objective:This paper intends to provide reference for consummation of biosimilar registration poli-cies in China. Methods:This paper evaluates the performance of Japanese registration regulation policies on biosimi-lars by analyzing the procedure and reviewing the features of biosimilars. Results and Conclusions:According to the findings of the present investigation, the availability and affordability of biosimilars have been improved, and the bio-medicine industry has achieved great development. On the other hand, it's recommended that the guideline for the de-velopment and evaluation of biosimilars should be amended on the principle of appropriate simplification, which means to simplify the research and development procedure and exempt partial application dossier. Besides, the regis-tration procedures should be adopted continuously to ensure the stability of biosimilars' R&D and registration.

Objective To explore the evidence for the morphologic comparability between the meridians and interstitial connective tissues in the lower limb with auto-marked and 3D-Rebuilding technology. Methods First,the muscles were extracted and noise was eliminated;With edge detection a convex hull of the muscles edge was found;The interstitial connective tissue points were marked in the cross section images of left leg from the digital dataset of Virtual Chinese Human-Male1(VCH-M1).Finally,the auto-marked images were reconstructed with 3D-Doctor. Results The reconstructed meridians in the lower limb auto-marked with computer procedures tallied basically with the meridians and collaterals recorded in Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM) illustrative graphics.Conclusion Having the advantages of digital anatomic study on acupuncture points earlier and mature 3D-Rebuilding techniques,the department of Anatomy of South Medical University cooperated with the Department of Scientific Calculation and Computer Application of Sun Yat-sen University to devise a set of computer programs which could be used to AutoMark interstitial connective tissues in Virtual Human lower limbs and then reconstruct virtual fascia meridians which corresponded with the TCM records.This method avoided man-made error to a certain degree in the process of recognizing and rebuilding of fascias.The study is significant to explore the morphologic comparability between the meridians and collaterals and interstitial connective tissues in human lower limb.

Objective To research the growth of human umbilical vein endothelial cell(HUECV) cultured with different dose of selenium. Methods HUVEC were cultured with selenium in various concentration (50、100、500、1000、2000 nmol/L) for 48 h in vitro. The morphological changes of cells were observed, activity of cell was measured by MTT method, and at the same time the levels of SOD, GSH-Px, MDA, NO, iNOS, eNOS in the culture were determined. Results At the doses of 1 000-2 000 nmol/L, the cells were damaged and revealed related morphological change. Cell activity was significantly higher at the dose of 100 nmol/L compared with that of control (P

Objective To explore the bioactivity and stability of the antifungal substance produced by Streptomyces NG-715 as well as to establish the assay for biological activity detection. Method Take the antifungal substance as experimental materials, and test its minimum inhibitory concentration and minimum bactericidal concentration on four fungi strains including Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Penicillium citrinum, Aspergillus niger, Rhizopus sp. Aspergillus niger was used as indicator strain to measure the biological activity and stability of the antifungal substance. Results The results showed that the MIC of the antifungal substance on four fungi strains including Saccharomyces cerevisiae,Penicillium citrinum,Aspergillus niger,Rhizopus sp were 1.25, 2.5, 3.75 and 3.75μg/mL, respectively. The MBC of the antifungal substance on four fungi strains were 2.5, 10, 17.5 and 17.5μg/mL, respectively. Linearity regress equation of the antifungal substance in Aspergillus niger was y=26.963 x-27.6,R 2=0.9991. The antifungal substance was pH-stable, heat-stable but ultravio1 et-sensible. Conclusion The results from this study will porvide useful information for the further extraction and analysis on the bioactive compound.

This paper analyzed the main cause of the alienation of doctor-patient trust,the poor complaint channels of medical dispute,the lack of credibility for medical and judicial authentication,citizens' consciousness and other medical violence.Aiming at medical violence,we should popularize the concept of law firstly.Secondly,we should revise and perfect the act of medical violence,and promote the institutionalization of handling medical disputes.Then,we should strengthen the construction of physicianprofessionalism and perfect the medical identification.Third,we should strengthen the construction of mediation mechanism and import medical liability insurance appropriately.
