Objective To study the change of maternal serum human chorionic gonadotropin(MShCG) in preterm labor and the relationship between hCG and placental pathological changes. Metheds The preterm labor patients were chosen as the research subjects, the normal late-pregnancy women with the same gestational age were chosen as controls. MShCG level were measured by radioimmunoassy (RIA), placental tissue of preterm labor women was examined histologically. hCG in placental tissue was examined by semiquantiative immunohistochemistry. Results MShCG in preterm labor was significantly higher than that of control P

Polyketides are very large group of natural products with functional and structural diversity.Most of them are produced by microor- ganism and have medicinal activities,including antibiotic,anticancer,antifungal and antiparasitic properties.The researchs in this area have progressed greatly.More and more polyketides are discovered,on the other hand the mechanisms of biosynthesis of those various polyketides are researched more deeply and clearly.The article reviewed the progress of the research in the diversity of polyketide synthases and the mechanisms of polyketide biosynthesise.

AlM:To investigate the visual function in myopia and hyperopia amblyopia whose corrected visual acuity have recovered to normal.METHODS: The visual function of children ( 50 cases ) with amblyopia eyes by binocular vision correction after treatment above 0. 9 was checked. The simultaneous perception, fusion range and distance stereopsis were measured. According to the refractive condition of the children who were divided into group A ( myopia, 20 cases ) and group B ( hyperopia, 30 cases ) . The statistically difference of simultaneous perception, fusion function and stereopsis in two groups was analyzed. RESULTS: Fifteen ( 75%) and twenty - six ( 87%) children got the simultaneous perception in group A and group B respectively, and the differences between two groups were not significant (χ2=0. 454,P>0. 05). Group A had six children ( 30%) and group B had only seven children (23%) with the normal aggregative fusion range, two groups did not show any difference (χ2 =0. 565, P>0. 05). Respectively sixteen (80%),and twenty children ( 67%) had the normal divided fusion range in group A and group B, the recovery rate did not show any significant difference (χ2=0. 740, P>0. 05). Fifteen (50%) and seven ( 35%) patients acquired the far stereoscopic vision in group B and group A respectively, the recovery rate also did not show any significant difference. Normal distance stereopsis of 50 cases had 22 cases ( 44%) , and normal near stereopsis of 50 cases had 13cases ( 26%) Seven (23%) and 6 (30%) children got the normal near stereoscopic vision in group B and group A respectively, and the recovery rate did not show any significant difference (χ2=0. 195, P>0. 05;χ2=0. 295, P>0. 05).CONCLUSlON:After amblyopia treatment, although the children got the normal visual acuity, the binocular vision still can not completely normal in the short term. Myopia and hyperopia factor will not produce significant effect on binocular vision development.

Before and after treatment as well as before metastasis,the combined detection of progastrin-releasing peptide (ProGRP) and neuron-specific enolase (NSE) was performed in 150 patients with small cell lung cancer.The follow-up period was 1 year.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and electrochemiluminescence immunoassay were conducted.The result showed a negative correlation between the serum levels of ProGRP and NSE the curative effect.And a positive correlation existed between the serum levels of ProGRP and NSE and disease development.The difference had statistical significance (P ＜ 0.05).The levels of ProGRP and NSE may be used to indicate the disease development and evaluate the curative effect.

Objective To analyze the clinical,radiological and pathological features of primary leiomyosarcoma of bone and to im-prove the diagnostic level.Methods Totally 6 cases of PLB proved by pathology were collected in our study.The clinical,radiologi-cal and pathological findings were retrospectively analyzed,and combined with the relevant literature to have a comprehensive analy-sis.Results The lesions of 6 patients were solitary,located in femoral (1 case),distal femur (1 case),proximal tibia (2 cases),is-chium (1 case)and humerus (1 case).There was no periosteal reaction in all 6 cases but they all had soft tissue mass,sometimes there may have some mineralization within the tumor.Ill-defined osteolytic bone destruction was detected in 5 patients,while expan-sion of cystic bone destruction was found in the other 1 patients.3 cases had hardened edge,2 cases with adjacent bone cortical thickening.The MR imaging in 5 patients showed iso-intensity signal on T1 WI,a slightly inhomogeneously higher signal on T2 WI and a significant heterogeneously enhancement after injected of Gd-DTPA.Another 1 patient showed a double ring sign,the central area onT1 WI and T2 WI expressed heterogeneous slightly higher signal,the peripheral annular zone was iso-intensity on T1 WI and slightly higher on T2 WI,after injected contrast medium,it was inhomogeneous enhancement.In immunohistochemically,all tumors reacted positively with SMA,3 patients with Desmin and Vimentin positive,2 patients with Ki-67 positive,and there had some scat-tered cells with CD68 positive,but the S-100 were all negative.Conclusion The clinical,radiological and conventional histological manifestations of PLB are not specific.Immunohistochemical and/or ultrastructural analysis who displayed smooth muscle differenti-ation can confirm the diagnosis.

Objective To assess the diagnostic value of Logistic model in differentiating between malignant and benign ovarian lesions. Methods Thirty-five indexes of clinical and ultrasound data were recorded in 601 ovarian lesions confirmed by surgical pathology. The Logistic model was developed on a training set( n - 400) and tested on a test set( n = 201). Results Variable selection resulted in a set of 10 variables for the models: personal history of ovarian cancer, maximal diameter of the lesion, maximal diameter of the solid component, multilocular-solid tumor, solid tumor, ascites, flow within papillation, irregular walls, very strong intratumoral blood flow (i. e. color score 4) and acoustic shadows. Test set area under the receiver-operating characteristics curve was 0.963 with a sensitivity 93.9% and a specificity 93. 1 %. Conclusions Logistic model can accurately separate malignant from benign ovarian masses.

Objective To investigate the relationships of nuclear factor кB (NF-кB) activation with protein kinase B (Akt) and glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK-3β) during amyloid-β (Aβ) (25-35) -induced apoptosis in pheochromocytoma cells (PC12 cells) of rats. Methods Apoptosis in PC12 cells was induced by A(25-35). The activities of Akt, GSK-3β and NF-кB were analyzed in this process. The Akt and GSK-3β pathways were blocked by their specific inhibitors, respectively, and the relationships of Akt and, GSK-3β with NF-кB during Aβ(25-35)-induced apoptosis in PC12 cells were determined. Results Aβ(25-35) induced apoptosis was in a dose-dependent manner. With 0, 5, 10, 20 μmol/L and 40 μmol/L Aβ(25-35) treaing for 48 h, the apoptosis rates of PC12 cells were (3. 01 ± 0.03)%, (3.08 ±0.03)%, (25.32 ± 0.76)%, ( 42.88 ± 0.60 )% and ( 60.85 ± 2.39 )% , respectively. Compared to control, both Akt and GSK-3β were suppressed during apoptosis, at meantime NF-кB was activated. The inhibited Akt activity by wortmannin leaded to decreased NF-кB activatity and increased GSK-3β activatity. Suppression of GSK-3β with its specific inhibitor LiCl caused the decreased activation of NF-кB too, but it had no significant influence on Akt activity. Conclusions These results suggest that both Akt and GSK-3β are upstream regulators of NF-кB. They co-regulate the activation of NF-кB during Aβ(25-35)-induced apoptosis in PC12 cells. This study contributes to the theoretical base for the pathogenesis of Alzheimer disease (AD) , and provides a new idea to AD prevention and therapy.

Objective To explore the roles of biomarkers of the ratios of microRNA (miRNA)in osteosarcoma.Methods The blood samples from 20 patients with osteosarcoma and 30 healthy people with similar age were choosed.The miRNA expression profiles were filtered by gene chips of high flux.The results were verified by qRT-PCR.The miRNA expression ratio was analysed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC)curve aiming to find the most predictive potential combination-type markers.Results Two hundred and fifty-eight miRNAs were found to be significantly deregulated in blood samples from 30 patients with osteo-sarcoma as compared with their matching normal blood samples (F=5.564,P<0.05).Four miRNAs were choosed from blood samples of22 patients with osteosarcoma and normal blood samples.MiR-181b,miR-199b-5p and miR-451 were significantly higher than that in normal blood sample (F=6.283,P<0.05),while miR-124 showed low expression (F=7.201,P<0.05).Furthermore,the ratio of miR-199b-5p/miR-124 showed a high sensitivity (96%)and specificity (97%).Conclusion The abnormal expression of miRNA in osteosar-coma makes it have a predictive effect.The ratio of miR-199b-5p/miR-124 could be served as combination-type biomarkers in the diagnosis of osteosarcoma.

Objective To investigate the value of clinical characteristics in diagnosis of vocal fold paralysis (VFP) and arytenoid dislocation .Methods Eighty - eight patients of VFP and 27 patients of arytenoid dislocation were studied , by comparing the causes , laryngeal morphologic characteristics and laryngeal electromyography (LEMG) .Results The causes of 88 VFP patients included surgery (45 cases) ,neck trauma(2 cases) ,idiopathic causes(16 cases) ,infection(16 cases) ,and tumor invasion - related(9 cases) .Of the 27 arytenoid dislocation pa‐tients ,24 had a history of endotracheal intubation and the others had a history of gastric tube insertion .The vocal folds were mostly fixed at the paramedian position ,followed by the abducent position and the median position .No significant differences were found in laryngeal morphologic characteristics between the two groups ,including vocal fold shape , glottis vertical symmetry , mucosal waves , supraglottic compensation , glottis closure and arytenoid movement .The LEMG of VFP patients appeared as denervation patterns ,reinnervation potentials ,or electrical si‐lence ;the recruitment patterns appeared as mix or simple patterns ;the evoked potentials were absent .Of the VFP patients ,54 cases(61 .36% % )were found synkinesis of involved posterior cricoarytenoid and two of them also in ‐volved thyroatenoid .The patients with synkinesis had lower percentage of vocal fold bowing and higher percentage of glottic vertical asymmetry compared to the ones without synkinesis .Of the VFP patients whose cause was surgery or neck trauma ,the median - position fixed vocal folds were mostly observed in the patients with duration of less than 1 month or with synkinesis .Of the 27 arytenoid dislocation patients ,20(74 .07% )showed normal LEMG pat‐terns and 7(25 .93% )showed apparent LEMG abnormality on the affected side .Conclusion The causes of vocal fold paralysis and arytenoid dislocation are different .Laryngeal morphologic characteristics have limitations in distinguis‐hing vocal fold paralysis from arytenoid dislocation .The shape and position of involved vocal folds of the VFP pa‐tients are correlated with duration ,nerve regeneration and synkinesis .

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of autologous stem cell transplantation research for patients with cerebral hemorrhage sequelae under the stereotactic.Methods One hundred patients with cerebral hemorrhage from Jan.2011 to Sep.2013 in our hospital were selected and randomly divided into the experimental group (n =50) and the control group (n =50).The patients of experimental group were given autologous stem cell transplantation under the stereotactic in 6 months after cerebral hemorrhage,while the patients in control group were just given traditional treatment.At 6,7 and 12 months after cerebral hemorrhage,rate with neural function defect scale and functional independence measure(FIM) scores of the two groups were compared.Results FIM scores in the experimental group was 102.08 ± 8.28,significant higher than that in control group(95.28±8.75,P＜0.05).Functional independence measure scores in the experimental group at 7 months after cerebral hemorrhage was 13.12±4.00,significant lower than that in control group(20.40±4.33,P ＜0.05).While,there was no statistical difference at 6 months and 12 months after cerebral hemorrhage between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion The therapeutic of autologous stem cell transplantation on patients with cerebral hemorrhage sequelae under the stereotactic is benefit at short term,but the long term therapy effective still needs further study.
