Objective To understand the awareness status on malaria control knowledge of residents,primary and middle school students in Huai’an District,Huai’an City,so as to provide the evidences for promoting the malaria elimination process in this district. Methods Three towns in Huai’an District were selected randomly,and one village,one primary school and one junior middle school in each town were chosen as the investigation sites. The residents over 18 years old,the primary school students in Grade 4 to 6,and the junior middle students in the investigation sites were investigated by questionnaires to under?stand their awareness status on knowledge of malaria control. Results Totally 305 residents and 618 students were investigated. The awareness rate of students was 89.97%,and the rates of the junior middle school students and primary school students were 85.94%and 94.10%,respectively,the difference between them was statistically significant(P<0.01). The awareness rate of the residents was 80.98%,which was lower than that of the students(P<0.05). For the students,the awareness rate on“pre?caution of malaria”(96.74%)was the highest,while that on“drug of malaria”(68.93%)was the lowest. For the residents,the rate on“transmission route of malaria”(95.08%)was the highest,that on“4·26 is Malaria Day”(64.26%)was the lowest. Ex?pect the items of“transmission route of malaria”and“precaution of malaria”(both P>0.05),the differences of the awareness rates on all the other items between the students and residents were statistically significant (all P<0.01). Conclusions Al?though the awareness rates of malaria control knowledge in the population of Huai’an District,Huai’an City have achieved the goal of the relevant requirement,the health education on malaria control still should be strengthened,especially for the primary students,female residents and exported labor service personnel.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of low dose thalidomide combined with chemotherapy in treatment of multiple myeloma(MM)and the clinical curative effect of the treatment method.Methods From June 2010 to June 2012,80 patients were diagnosed with multiple myeloma as the research object in Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital of Haining,randomly divided into control group and observation group,with 40 cases in each group.The control group adopted conventional chemotherapy,the observation group were given low dose thalidomide combined with conventional chemotherapy.The clinical effect and adverse drug reactions were compared. Results The total effective rate of observation group (87.5%)was significantly higher than that of control group(65.0%)(P<0.05).The adverse reactions were 87.5%(35/40)in observation group and 100.0%(40/40)in control group,there was no significant difference between the two groups.The mean progression-free survival(PFS)and overall survival(OS)in observation group(5.5 ±1.2 months;1 1.5 ±2.4 months)were higher than those in control group(3.7 ±0.8 months;8.5 ±1.3 months)(P<0.05 ). Conclusion Low dose thalidomide combined with conventional chemotherapy in the treatment of multiple myeloma can improve clinical effect and decrease recurrence rate,with high safety and less adverse reactions.

Radiation nephropathy refers to the damage of renal parenchyma and blood vessel caused by sufficient exposure to ionizing radiation.The clinical presentation includes proteinuria,hematuria,anemia,hypertension,and azotemia.Histological features include capillary loop thickening,mesangiolysis,formation of the double contours,subendothelial swelling,tubular atrophy,and tubulointerstitial fibrosis.Similar changes are seen in a variety of experimental animal models.The pathogenesis of radiation nephropathy remained unclear.It is reported that radiation-induced changes in kidney cell phenotype,renin angiotensin system(RAS) and oxidative stress is clearly involved.Multiple experimental studies have shown that antagonism of the RAS is beneficial,even when not initiated until weeks after irradiation.Recent findings suggest a similar benefit in clinical radiation nephropathy.

Objective: To investigate the association between body height and risk of cancer incidence among adult men and women in Shanghai. Methods: Baseline information on body height and other factors relevant for cancer was obtained from Women's (1996-2000) and Men's Health Studies (2002-2006) in Shanghai. Participants with missing data on body height, or those lost to follow-up in one year after the study enrollment were excluded, leaving 74 709 women and 61 161 men for analysis. There were 4 031 incident cancers for women and 2 047 for men confirmed at the end of 2009. COX regression model was used to evaluate the HR s ( hazard ratios) and 95% CI (confidence interval) between height and cancers. Results: After adjustment for some potential confounding factors including age, weight, physical activity, energy intake, occupation, income and reproductive factors (for women only), HR s and 95% CI s for cancer incidence per 1 standard deviation (6 cm for both men and women) increment in body height were 1.04 (95% CI : 1.00-1.08) for total cancers, 1.18 (95% CI : 1.05-1.33) for stomach cancer, 1.34 (95% CI : 1.06-1.70) for kidney cancer and 1.05 (95% CI : 0.99-1.12) for breast cancer in women; and 1.06 (95% CI : 1.00-1.11) for total cancers, 1.11 (95% CI : 1.00-1.25) for lung cancer, 1.34 (95% CI : 1.02-1.75) for pancreatic cancer, 1.23 (95% CI : 1.01-1.49) for rectal cancer and 0.78 (95% CI : 0.66-0.94) for prostate cancer in men. Conclusion: A possible link between body height and cancer incidence in men and women is suggested. The association between body height and cancer incidence varies by cancer type.

Objective Study the biologic compatibility of the membrane of biologic conduit made of chitin and Schwann cells in vitro Methods Cultured Schwann cells with the membrane,then observed their attachment,spread and growth Results Around the membrane,the shape,amounts and growth of Schwann cells in the experimental groups were same with the control group.Schwann cells can lived on the membrane,and their amounts were larger on the membrane precoated with collagen (rat tail) than on the simple membrane Conclusion The membrane of biologic conduit made of chitin have good biologic compatibility with Schwann cells and have better nerve cell affinity after being precoated with collagen.

Objective To detect the hypermethylation of HOXB6 gene in gastric cancer tissue and investigate the relationship between the gene expression and the clinics.Methods seven types of gastric cancer cell line and 73 cases of gastric cancer biopsy tissues were measured by combined bisulfite restriction analysis method.The gene expression and the re-expression after demethylation were detected by RT-PCR.Results Of 7 cell lines examined, 4 showed hypermethylation.The methylating status of HOXB6 was found to be correlated with loss of expression,which was restored by 5-aza-2＇-deoxycytidine treatment.We also find hypermethylation in 20/73(27.40%)case of cancer tissues but no one in non cancer tissue.Conclusion There are close relationship between hypermethylation and gene silencing in the HOXB6 gene of gastric cancer,There are also a gene re-expression after its demethylation.Hypermethylation of HOXB6 gene can be a tumor marker for gastric cancer diagnosis,and the agent of demethylation maybe a new antineoplastic drug.

AlM: To compare the effects of external approach microsurgery and conventional external approach surgery for retinal detachment ( RD) .METHODS: From January 2010 to January 2013, 60 patients (60 eyes) in our hospital were randomly divided into experimental group (29 cases, 29 eyes) and control group ( 31 cases, 31 eyes ) , the external approach microsurgery and conventional external approach surgery were performed respectively ( by the same skilled doctor ) . Retinal reattachment rate, visual acuity improvement rate and operative time were compared between two groups.RESULTS:lt cost shorter time for the external approach microsurgery than that of conventional external approach surgery ( P = 0. 0087 ). The once successful retinal reattachment rate in experimental group was 93% ( 27 cases ) , which was higher than that in control group (90%, 28 cases), there was no statistical difference. The vision improvement rate in control group was 86% ( 25 cases ) , compare to 90% ( 28 cases ) in experimental group, there was no statistical differences. CONCLUSlON: No statistical differences showed in visual acuity improvement and the once retinal reattachment rate between the two groups for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. However, it is believed that external approach microsurgery could be faster, easier to learn with satisfactory effect.
