Objective To construct the prokaryotic expression vector of mouse CD25 extracellular domain and to express it in E coli.Methods Total RNA was isolated from splenocytes of Balb/c mice.The CD25 extracellular domain gene was amplified by RT-PCR and cloned into the PET-32a vector.A positive recombinant,PET-32a-CD25e,was identified by enzyme cleaving and sequencing before its expression in E.coli,and transferred into E.coli BL21(DE3) plysS for its expression.After purification with Ni+ resin and renaturation in vitro,a relative molecular mass(Mr) of the interesting protein was detected by SDS-PAGE and Wes-tern blotting.Effect of the purified interesting protein on the proliferation of splenocytes from T cell vaccine-immunized syngeneic mice was detected by MTT assay.Results The cloned CD25 extracellular domain gene was identified to be functional by sequencing and expression.The purified interesting protein could significantly induce the proliferation and IL-4 secretion of splenocytes from T cell vaccine-immunized mice in vitro.Conclusion Mouse CD25 extracellular domain gene can be successfully expressed in prokaryotic cells with biological activity,which lays a foundation for further relative studies.

Objective Summarize the information of 135 killing familiar cases and study the characteristics of these cases, in order to analysis the key points of the case investigation. Methods Collected the data of the 135 killing familiar homicides cases which have solved and happened in a province middle of China from 2011 to 2013. The paper analyzed the data accordding the basic information, the forensic professional, the forensic scene and so on. Results Most killing familiar cases occured between husband and wife or parents and children. The cases frequently occur in rural areas. Most of the cases occur between the adults. The killing familiar cases commonly occur in Decemember, January, Feburary, the cases commonly occur in evening(from 6 pm to 6 am). The motivate of the cases is unobvious, the murder suffer from the mental patient is commonly. In these cases, mostly tools of crime is the blunt tools and the sharp tools. Mechanical asphyxia and mechanical iniury were the most commonly causes of death in these cases. Conclusion The social characteristics of suspect, injury tool, cause of death, time of the incident in the killing familiar case showed similar general characteristics, but how collect evidence in the case is the difficulty of the case investigation.

BACKGROUND:Acute poisoning is frequently encountered at emergency department. This study was to investigate the epidemiology and characteristics of patients with acute poisoning who were treated at the Emergency Center, Fujian Provincial Hospital, China. METHODS:We retrospectively analyzed the gender, age, causes of poisoning, types of poisons, poisoning route, emergency diagnoses, outcomes, and prognoses of these patients. RESULTS:Altogether 2867 patients with acute poisoning were treated from January 2004 to December 2009. The ratio of male to female was 1:1.04, and their average age was 33.8 years. Of the 2867 patients, 76.39％ were between 18 and 40 years old. The incidence of acute poisoning was as high as 11.33％ in January each year. The incidence of poisoning was in a descending order:alcohol poisoning (54.55％), medication poisoning (25.95％), pesticide poisoning (5.65％), and drug poisoning (4.88％). Most (56.44％) of the patients with drug poisoning were under 25 years and their mean age was significantly lower than that of patients with medication poisoning or alcohol poisoning (P < 0.01). Approximately 69.54％ of the patients were followed up after emergency treatment, 30.39％ were hospitalized, and four patients died. CONCLUSIONS:Acute poisoning is largely alcohol poisoning and medication poisoning in a city. The emergency green channel "pre-hospital emergency care-emergency department-hospital treatment"can significantly improve the survival rate of patients with acute poisoning.

BACKGROUND: Good neurological outcome after cardiac arrest (CA) is hard to achieve for clinicians. Experimental and clinical evidence suggests that therapeutic mild hypothermia is beneficial. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness and safety of therapeutic mild hypothermia in patients successfully resuscitated from CA using a meta-analysis. METHODS: We searched the MEDLINE (1966 to April 2012), OVID (1980 to April 2012), EMBASE (1980 to April 2012), Chinese bio-medical literature & retrieval system (CBM) (1978 to April 2012), Chinese medical current contents (CMCC) (1995 to April 2012), and Chinese medical academic conference (CMAC) (1994 to April 2012). Studies were included if 1) the study design was a randomized controlled trial (RCT); 2) the study population included patients successfully resuscitated from CA, and received either standard post-resuscitation care with normothermia or mild hypothermia;3) the study provided data on good neurologic outcome and survival to hospital discharge. Relative risk (RR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were used to pool the effect. RESULTS: The study included four RCTs with a total of 417 patients successfully resuscitated from CA. Compared to standard post-resuscitation care with normothermia, patients in the hypothermia group were more likely to have good neurologic outcome (RR=1.43, 95% CI 1.14–1.80, P=0.002) and were more likely to survive to hospital discharge (RR=1.32, 95% CI 1.08–1.63, P=0.008). There was no significant difference in adverse events between the normothermia and hypothermia groups (P>0.05), nor heterogeneity and publication bias. CONCLUSION: Therapeutic mild hypothermia improves neurologic outcome and survival in patients successfully resuscitated from CA.

A total of 160 type 2 diabetic patients were divided into microalbuminuria(42 cases)and normoalbuminuria(118 cases)groups.Multivariate analysis demonstrated that the presence of microalbuminuria was independently associated with brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity(baPWV)and intima-media thickness(both P

Differences in gene expressions were compared by cDNA microarray in skeletal muscle of type 2 diabetic rats and normal rats.In diabetic rats,157 genes were down-regulated and 100 genes up-regulated. Some of these genes were related to insulin resistance,glucose and lipid metabolism.

Objective To accurately investigate the characteristic and effective of occlusive devices in ventricular septal of defect (VSD) by using stereo 3D echocardiography. Methods Six patients with VSD were included who were undergone the defect closing operation with Amplatzer occluder device. Stereo 3D echocardiography was performed to show 3DE imaging appearance after the operative procedure. Results Stereo 3D echocardiography were performed after the procedure of implanting occluder device. It was clear to show the location of the occluder and the space relationship of each parts. Conclusions The appearance,location and space relationship of occluder could be seen clearly by stereo 3D echocardiography after implanting occluder device. Compare with 2D, real-time 3D echocardiography, stereo 3D echocardiography could provide more veracious information about heart structures and the therapeutic devices for clinical use.

OBJECTIVETo explore the repair of Xiangsha Liujunzi Decoction (XSLJZD) on interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) and gap junction (GJ) in the gastric muscular layer of rats of Pi-qi deficiency syn- drome (PQDS).

METHODSPQDS was established using purgative method with bitter and cold drugs in 30 healthy Wistar rats. After successful modeling they were randomly divided into the treatment group and the model group, 15 in each group. Another 15 healthy Wistar rats were recruited as the healthy control group. Rats in the treatment group were gastric administered with XSLJZD at 2 mL/100 g body weight, once daily for 14 successive days. Equal volume of normal saline was gastrically administered to those in the healthy control group and the model group. The gastric muscle tissues were taken out before modeling, before intervention, and after intervention, respectively. Ultrastructural changes of ICC and GJ were observed using transmission electron microscope (TEM). The number and distribution of Connexin43 (Cx43) were detected using immunohistochemistry.

RESULTSResults of TEM indicated that compared with the healthy control group, both ICC and GJ in the model group showed obvious injury. ICC and GJ were apparently repaired after intervention in the treatment group. Compared with the same group before modeling, the integrated optical density (IOD) of the Cx43 expression significantly decreased in the model group before and after intervention (P <0.05). Compared with before intervention, the IOD of the Cx43 expression significantly increased in the treatment group (P <0.05). Compared with the healthy control group, the IOD of the Cx43 expression significantly decreased in the model group before and after intervention (P <0.05). Compared with the model group, the IOD of the Cx43 expression significantly increased in the treatment group (P <0.05).

CONCLUSIONSUltrastructures of ICC and GJ in the gastric muscular layer of rats of PQDS were obviously damaged. XSLJZD could repair the structural damage of ICC and GJ in the gastric muscle tissues of rats of PQDS.
