Synthetic pesticides-pyrethroids have been widely used in agriculture and in households. Most of them are the environmental hormone substances. Pyrethroids have toxic effects on animals and humans,inducing teratogenicity,carcinogenicity and mutagenicity. In the present paper,the typical animals-fish,mice and rats were choosen for the health risk assessment,and the research progresses on adverse effects of pyrethroids in nervous toxicology,physiological and biochemical toxicology,reproductive toxicology were summerized,as well as the effects of the animal enzymes and immune system.

Patients often suffered limb dysfunction after stroke. Upper limb and hand function recovered more slowly than lower limb, and became one of the research focuses in rehabilitation medicine. Timely and effective assessments were important to guide the rehabilitation treatment, evaluate the treatment efficacy and predict functional recovery of upper extremity and hand function. The assessment methods of upper limb and hand motor function included subjective evaluations and objective evaluations. The former included different kinds of scales, which involved assessment focusing on muscle, motor pattern, change of upper limb and hand function. While the latter contained biomechanics, neuroelectrophysiology, functional magnetic resonance imaging, upper limb robotic evaluation system and so on. Scales were proved to have good reliability and validity. But they could not show patients' function accurately because of the subjectivity, and the data could not be kept. Evaluation system with computer was applied in clinical practice more and more widely. In this review, we summarized the assessments on upper limb and hand motor function in patients after stroke.

Background and purpose: The effects of tumor after radiotherapy and chemotherapy with tumor cell apoptosis have positive correlation. Survivin is an apoptosis suppressor gene, which is overexpressed in lung cancer. The reduction of its expression can increase lung cancer cell apoptosis. RNA interference can speciifcally and effectively blocked the expression of this gene. After accepting a dose of radiation, tumor tissues can raise the rate of gene transduction. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the expression of Survivin gene suppressed by intratumor injection siRNA and radiation in lung cancer. Methods:Mouse subcutaneous transplanted with tumors were randomly divided into four groups:untreated group (group A), group with intratumor injection siRNA (group B), group with radiation (group C), group 4 Gy pre-irradiation combination with intratumor injection siRNA (group D). Two days later, mouse with different treatments were executed by cervical dislocation and stripped the subcutaneous tumors. mRNA and protein levels of Survivin gene were detected by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) and Western blot; Cell cycle and cell apoptosis were assayed by lfow cytometry (FCM). Results:The expression of Survivin gene in mRNA and protein levels in group B, C, and D were signiifcantly reduced compared with group A. The differences of Survivin expression in mRNA level between group A and group D were statistically signiifcant. Compared with the other 3 groups, the expression of Survivin gene in group D was signiifcantly reduced, the differences were statistically signiifcant (P=0.036);The proportion of cells in S-phase of group D was (2.70±0.34)%, compared with group B [(8.93±0.75)%] and group C [(6.71±0.51)%], that was significantly reduced. The differences of the proportion of S-phase cells in group A and group D were statistically signiifcant (P=0.034);The rate of cell apoptosis in group D was (25.67 ± 0.65)%, which was signiifcantly increased compared with the rate of cell apoptosis in the other 3 groups, the differences were statistically signiifcant (F=78.82, P<0.05). Conclusion:Pre-irradiation can enhance the transduction rate of siRNA, reduce the expression of Survivin gene in lung cancer, promote cell apoptosis, and increase the sensitivity of the radiotherapy.

Objective To investigate the clinical and pathological features of microscopic thymoma(MT).Methods The histopathological features of 12 cases of MT were observed by histopathologic and immunohistochemical methods.The pathological morphology,diagnosis,and differential diagnosis were discussed combined with literature.Results 6 cases of MT were accompanied by myasthenia gravis(MG) symptoms.Focal hyperplastic thymic epithelial islands were accompanied by large tracts of mature adipose tissue in 12 cases of MTs,and immunohistochemistry showed CK positive.Cyst formation was found in 5 cases,lymphoid hyperplasia in 7 cases,and vascular proliferation in 5 cases.Conclusions MG may be the clinical manifestation of MT.MT can occur in thymic cortex,medulla and cortex and medulla junction.Since the tumor is small and the lesions are multiple,it can not be found by X-ray or CT examination.Diagnosis depends on histopathological examination.Correct understanding of the clinical and pathological features of MT has guiding significance on the treatment and prognosis judgment of MT.Thymic resection was recommended for MG patients either with or without thymoma.

The clinical data of 459 patients,who were first diagnosed as HIV/HBV co-infection from January 2007 to December 2013,were retrospectively analyzed.Among all patients,there were 89 cases with CD4 ＜ 50/μl,134 cases with CD4 50-200/μl and 236 cases with CD4 ＞ 200/μl,when HIV infection was diagnosed.In these three groups with different CD4 levels,the HBV DNA positive rates were 49.3％ (37/75),50.5％ (54/107) and 33.7％ (66/196);the HBV viral load were (6.37 ± 1.71) log10 copies/ml,(5.82 ± 1.86) log10 copies/ml and (4.36 ± 1.64) log10 copies/ml;the rates of abnormal liver function were 29.2％ (26/89),29.1％ (39/134) and 10.6％ (25/236);the occurrence rates of end-stage-liver-diseases were 16.9％ (15/89),14.9％ (20/134) and 5.1％ (12/236);the mortality rates were 10.1％ (9/89),9.7％ (13/134) and 3.8％ (9/236),respectively.The HBV DNA positive rates,HBV viral load,the rates of abnormal liver function,the occurrence rates of end-stage-liver-diseases and the mortality rates in CD4 ＞ 200/μl group were lower than that in CD4 ＜ 50/μl group and 50-200/μl group.The results suggest that for HIV and HBV co-infection patients,HBV replication level and prognosis of liver diseases are associated with CD4 + T lymphocyte count.

Objective To investigate the drug resistance and distribution of Staphylococcus aureus isolated from infected pa‐tients in our hospital from 2009 to 2013 ,and provide basis for clinical treatment .Methods Retrospective review was adopted to an‐alyze the antibiotic resistance and the specimen source of 562 SA strains .ATB Expression and ID 32 STAPH were used to identify SA .Antibiotic susceptibility testing was performed by K‐B method .Results 562 SA strains ,including 218 MRSA ,are mainly from secretions ,sputum and pus .Resistance was most frequently observed on penicillin ,followed by erythromycinand clindamycin .None of the isolates was resistant to vancomycin ,amikacin ,nitrofurantoin and linezolid .The resistance rates of MRSA to penicillin ,eryth‐romycin ,cotrimoxazole ,clindamycin ,gentamicin ,cefoxitin ,tetracycline and rifampicin were obviously higher than that of MSSA ,and there are very significant differences between them (P<0 .05) .Conclusion There is a declining trend in the isolation rates of SA and MRSA in our hospital ,but the drug resistance situation remains serious .Vancomycin is still the first option for the cure of MR‐SA infections .Therefore ,strengthening SA resistance monitoring and avoiding misuse of antimicrobial drugs is an effective way to prevent SA infection .

Objective To analyse the relationship between lymphatic vessels invasion and clinical pathological features of papillary thyroid carcinoma ( PTC ) .Methods The expressions of D2-40 and CK19 were examined in the 104 specimens of PTC using immunohistochemical staining with combined monoclonal antibodies and cocktail double enzyme labeled antibody( D2-40/CK19) stainings.The two methods were compared in the diagnosis of PTC metastasis, and the factors affecting lymphatic vessels formation were analyzed.Results The positive rate of lymphatic vessels invasion was 37.5%(39/104) by using immunohistochemical staining with combined monoclonal antibodies and 53.8%( 56/104 ) by cocktail double enzyme labeled antibody ( D2-40/CK19 ) staining ( P<0.05).The lymph node metastasis rate was 83.9%(47/56) in the group with lymphatic vessels invasion, significantly higher than that without invasion 22.9%(11/48, P<0.01).The age of patients, diameter of primary tumor were the influence factors of lymphatic vessels invasion in PTC patients(P<0.05 and P=0.063).Conclusion Cocktail double enzyme labeled antibody ( D2-40/CK19 ) staining is a better method to detect lymphatic vessels invasion in PTC than immunohistochemical staining with combined monoclonal antibodies.
