DNA fragments of ? subunit and ? subunit were amplified by PCR from the genome of Acidianus tengchongensis with the degenerated primers designed from the consensus amino acid sequence of Sulfolobus chaperonins. The two DNA fragments about 500bp were used as probe for southern hybridization to determine the suitable restriction endonuclease. Restriction endonuclease digested genomic DNA was circularized by self-ligation, and complete sequences of ? subunit and ? subunit were obtained by inverse PCR. The primers oriented in the reversed direction of the usual orientation to amplify the DNA sequence that flank the known region. The complete genes of ? subunit and ? subunit were PCR amplified from genomic DNA using two pairs primers.

目的探讨校园意外伤害发生的原因、特征和危险因素,为伤害预防与控制、残疾补偿、社会康复的有机结合提供参考依据。方法以1990—2002年因校园意外伤害造成脊髓损伤的 26例残疾学生作为个案调查研究对象。为了解校园意外伤害事故的致残原因及受伤后的处理情况,对仍在院接受治疗的残疾学生进行随访。结果伤害致残者中男生多于女生;初高中学生是伤害致残的高发人群(69%);校园意外伤害致残原因依次为:①体育训练;②跳水、潜水;③嬉闹摔伤;④高处坠落;⑤坠落物撞击;⑥钝器、刀砍击伤。医疗费用73%由校方支付。结论校园不安全隐患是危害学生生命安全的主要危险因素;提高青少年自我保护意识和自我防卫能力、加强安全教育、建立环境安全检查制度、定期对学校设施进行检查和维护是减少校园意外伤害事件的重要措施

With the population ageing, the number of elderly patients with end-stage renal disease(ESRD)is increasing, and the proportion of elderly patients undergoing hemodialysis is also increasing year by year.The elderly patients undergoing hemodialysis are susceptible to frailty due to the comorbidities, polypharmacy, chronic inflammation, malnutrition and other factors.In addition, frailty can lead to a variety of adverse prognosis such as falls, fractures, cognitive decline, all-cause hospital readmissions and all-cause death in elderly patients undergoing hemodialysis.

AIM: To determine the effect of phacoemulsification and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation for angle closure glaucoma previously treated by laser iridotomy.METHODS: Thirty-nine patients(39 eyes )with angle closure glaucoma previously treated by laser iridotomy and cataract were divided into two groups according need for anti-glaucoma medications for controlling intraocular pressure (IOP) or not. All the patients underwent phacoemulsification and foldable IOL implantation and were followed up 3 months postoperatively.RESULTS: The best-corrected visual acuity(BCVA) of both groups improved significantly (P<0.05). The post-operative IOP of group I at 3 months was 15.72±3.02mmHg,and that of group Ⅱwas 16.30±3.81mmHg. The IOP of both group decreased significantly(P<0.05). The central anterior chamber depth of group I was deepened from 1.64±0.45mm preoperatively to 3.21±0.41mm at 3 months postoperatively,group Ⅱ was deepened from 1.92±0.52mm preoperatively to 3.18±0.39mm at 3 months postoperatively. The postoperative central anterior chamber depth of both groups increased significantly(P<0.05).Anterior chamber angle was much wider postoperatively.CONCLUSION: Phacoemulsification and IOL implantation was effective for angle closure glaucoma previously treated by laser iridotomy,and can improve visual acuity and completely relieve the pupillary block of angle closure glaucoma.

The recombinant protein drug usually has a short half-life after intravenous (IV) or subcutaneous (SC) administration. The methods of prolonging the half-life of recombinant protein drug in common use are mainly based on three principles: 1 Amplifying the molecule weight of protein drug; 2 Making use of drug balance in the blood; 3 Reducing Immunogenicity. Three methods were focused on: Analog construction, PEGylation and Albumin fusion technology. The characteristics, half-life and immunogenicity problem of their products in the market and under development are summarized.

Hepatitis B is a serious infectious disease worldwide, and hepatitis B virus (HBV) is the direct cause of this disease. In recent years, as an essential part of its evolutionary process, HBV mutation has been extensively studied domestically and globally. However, the study on the conserved sequences in HBV sequences is still in its infancy. In this study, we applied multiple EM for motif elicitation (MEME) algorithm to discover HBV motif and proposed a new metric, conservative index (CI), to carry out phylogenetic analysis based on HBV sequences. Then, the constructed phylogenetic tree was subjected to reliability assessment. The results demonstrated that the new metric CI combined with the MEME algorithm can effectively help to discover motifs in HBV sequences and construct a phylogenetic tree based on them and to analyze the evolutionary relationship between HBV sequences; in addition, the possible ancestral sequences of samples may be obtained by conservative analysis. The proposed method is valuable for the exploratory study on large HBV sequence data sets.

Objective To evaluate the significance of standardized ultrasound examination of fetal structures in the ifrst trimester (11-13+6 weeks). Methods The ultrasound data of 29 858 fetuses who underwent the ifrst trimester screening were analyzed retrospectively in Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Capital Medical University from January 2010 to December 2012 and followed up the cases with structural abnormalities and increased nuchal translucency (NT). Results Among 29 858 fetuses, 328 structural defects were detected in 284 fetuses (0.95%) by ultrasound in the first trimester, including fetal hydrops (124 cases), choroid plexus cysts (36 cases), exencephaly (32 cases), gastroschisis (24 cases), exomphalos (22 cases), cardiac defects (19 cases), megacystis (14 cases), spine abnormalities (10 cases), meningoceles/encephaloceles (9 cases), alobar holoprosencephaly (8 cases), hydrocephaly (7 cases), abnormalities of extremities (7 cases), acrania (6 cases), amniotic band syndrome (4 cases), abdominal cyst (3 cases) and conjoined twins (3 cases). Pregnancy was terminated in all cases (115) with exencephaly, gastroschisis, exomphalos, meningoceles/encephaloceles, alobar holoprosencephaly, hydrocephaly,abnormalities of extremities, acrania, amniotic band syndrome and conjoined twins, and the defects were verified by the gross appearance of fetuses. Two cases of megacystis were turned out to be normal during follow-up while 1 case was proved to be aneuploid and 1 other case progressed to multiple abnormalities during the second trimester. Most choroid plexus cysts, except 1 case of aneuploid, were normal during the second and the third trimester follow-ups by ultrasound. Thirteen cases of fetal hydrops were found to be aneuploids and 4 hydrops cases were proved to be complicated with other structural defects during the second and the third trimester. NT was increased in 422 cases (1.41%), among which 122 cases (28.91%) were complicated with structural defects and/or fetal hydrops. Ninty-nine cases with increased NT underwent chromosomal examination and 38 cases were found to be aneuploides. During the follow-up of 298 cases with increased NT who continued pregnancy, 21 structural abnormalities were found, including cardiac defects (14 cases), neural abnormalities (4 cases) and diaphragmatic hernia (3 cases). Conclusion The standardized fetal ultrasound in the first trimester is a effective tool for the screening of aneupolides and major structural abnormalities.
