Transcription repressor ZHX2 is one of the members in ZHX protein family,which exists widely in human tissue and participates in the occurrence and development of various diseases.Researches show that ZHX2 is closely related to the occurrence and development of cancers,such as liver cancer,multiple myeloma,gastric cancer and colorectal cancer,which has the potential value of tumor treatment.

Notch signaling is an important evolutionarily conserved pathway involving the fate of cells translation. Additional?ly, this pathway also plays an important role in cartilage formation and maintenance of chondrocytes phenotype, regulation of the prolif?eration, maturation and balance of cartilage matrix metabolism. This paper reviews the composition and activation process of notch sig?naling, and its specific role in cartilage formation.

Objective To evaluate the value of echocardiography in investigation the failure of interventional therapy of VSDs and to increase the successful rate. Methods 15 cases with failure of VSD closure through interventional approach were undertaken measurement of major parameters of the defect on left ventriculography and then followed by Philips 5500 color Doppler US for repeated multi-direction tangential measuring of the size, morphologic change, relation with peripheral structure and individual valvular regurgitation. Results (1) Marginal membranous VSD 10 cases; membranance aneurysm 8 cases, ≥2 outlets 6 cases. Width of basal part of membranous aneurysm was 8 ～ 18 (10 ?2) mm with depth of 3 ～ 10 (6 ? 2) mm, distance from aortic valve was 0 ～ 6 (2 ? 1) mm and from tricuspid valve was 2 ～ 5 (2 ?1) mm; associated with slight tricuspid valvular regurgitation. Aortic valvular regurgitation 5 cases showed slight to mild amount and without membranous aneurysm occurred in 2 cases. (2) Intracristal VSD 5 cases showed the size of defect as 6 ～ 10 (7 ? 1) mm, with distances of 2 ～ 3 (1 ? 0.8) mm from pulmonary valve and 1 ～ 2 (1 ? 0.6) mm from aortic valve associated with slight regurgitation in 4 cases, slight tricuspid valvular regurgitation in 5 cases and aortic valvular prolapse in 4 cases. Conclusions Many factors can influence the direction tangential continuous scanning should be taken for accurate localization and measurement of VSD in order to select the very sight occludor providing high successful rate of occlusion and long term efficacy.

Aim To investigate the effects of 6% hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4(6%HES 130/0.4)and Ringer's solution resuscitation on early lung injury in hemorrhagic shock rats and its mechanisms.Methods Twenty-four male SD rats were divided into 4 groups:sham,Ringer's solution(RS),two HES groups(H1,H2).Group H1,H2 received HES 33,50 ml·kg~(-1) and Ringer's solutions respectively after 90-minute shock(the dose of Ringer's solutions was 3 times as muchas the maximum shed blood volume minus the dose of HES).Blood samples were taken from artery for blood analysis and the expression of CD11b/CD18 at T_0,T_1,T_4,T_5.The lungs were removed for ultrastructure examination.Results PaO_2 increased in group H1 at T_(1～5) and group H2 at T_5 as compared with T_0.PaCO_2 decreased in all the resusitation groups.The ultrastructure was basically normal except that the mitochondria changed slightly in group H1.In group H2,the perinuclear space was dilated slightly and the rough endoplasmic reticulum expanded slightly,and the degranulation was observed.Compared with group RS,the expressions of CD11b and CD18 decreased at T_4,T_5;compared with group H1,the expressions of CD11b and CD18 in group H2 increased.Conclusions Treatment with 6%HES(130/0.4)33 ml·kg~(-1)and Ringer's solution can attenuate hemorrhagic shock,and the resuscitation reduces lung injury through inhibition of expressions of CD11b and CD18.

Objective To evaluate the clinical capability of young general practitioners (GPs) in communities in Shanghai.Methods A cross-sectional survey on clinical ability of young GPs was adopted from October to December 2014.Total 211 GPs aged (31 ± 2) years (25-35) from 17 districts of Shanghai participated in the study.Written examination and objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) was applied in the evaluation.Results All 211 GPs (63 male and 148 females) completed the assessment.The overall score of the assessment was (602 ± 83) and the pass rate was 62.6％ (132/211).In written examination the average score was (64 ±7) and the pass rate was 72.1％ (152/211).In OSCE,the highest score (80 ± 15) and pass rate (92.9％,196/211) was in CPR skill,followed by communication skill [average score:(76 ± 15) and pass rate:85.8％ (181/211)].The lowest average score was physical examination (47 ± 15) with a pass rate of 26.1％ (55/211),followed by electrocardiogram reading [average score:(84 ±31) and pass rate:39.8％ (84/211)].In basic operation station,the lowest score was using funduscope and gynecologial examination (29.8％ and 45.4％,respectively).Conclusion Young GPs in Shanghai communities basically master clinical skills,but also have some deficiencies,the training in certain skills need to be strengthened.

Objective To assess community health service ability of general practitioners (GPs) with the Standardized General Practitioner Training(SGPT) in Shanghai.Methods One hundred and four GPs receiving SGPT and matched 102 GPs without SGPT were enrolled in this retrospective cohort study from September to November in 2014.Community health service ability,including abilities in basic medical service and public health service were assessed and compared between two groups.Written examination was applied in the public health services ability assessment.Objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) was applied for evaluation of basic medical service abilities.Results The scores of written examination in GPs with SGPT were higher than those without SGPT[(66 ±4) vs.(62 ±7),P ＜0.01].The OSCE scores in GP with SGPT were higher than those without SGPT [(494 ± 78) vs.(448 ± 80),P ＜ 0.01].GPs with SGPT also abtained the higher scores in consultation competence and clinical skills assessment [(245 ± 44) vs.(225 ±40),P＜0.01;(252 ±59) vs.(225 ±61),P ＜0.01].In OSCE,GPs with SGPT got higher score than those without SGPT in 5 stations (medical history collection,doctor-patient communication,basic operation,ECG interpretation,and CPR) (all P ＜ 0.01);however,no significant differences were observed in 3 stations (physical examination,case analysis and X-ray interpretation) between two groups (all P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions GPs with SGPT have better basic medical service and public health service ability.But some aspects of basic medical service ability need to be strengthened in the training and practice.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of oral and external application of Chinese medicine combined with Ilizarov external fixator and the accordion technique for severe chronic osteomyelitis of the tibia.Methods A total of 78 patients with severe chronic osteomyelitis of the tibia were randomized into a routine treatment group and a combined treatment group, 39 in each group. All the patients in the two groups received external fixation by use of Ilizarov external fixator and the accordion technique. All the patients in the combined treatment group received oralGuyu decoction. The patients who had large wound received vacuum-sealing drainage in the routine treatment group, and vacuum-sealing drainage combined with external application ofShengji-Yuhong plaster in the combined treatment group. All the patients were treated for 8 weeks and followed up for 2 years. The time to wound healing and fracture healing, and the drainage time were compared between the two groups. Functional and radiologic findings were evaluated according to Paley's criteria. The functions of the knee joint and ankle joint were evaluated using the Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) knee score and the scoring system of Baird and Jackson, respectively.Results The time to wound healing (17.33 ± 6.21 dvs. 22.27 ± 8.12 d;t=3.018,P=0.004) and the time to fracture healing (32.25 ± 6.02 weeks vs. 36.37 ± 7.75 weeks;t=2.623,P=0.011), and the drainage time (17.01 ± 4.66 dvs. 21.51 ± 5.23 d;t=4.012, P<0.001) in the combined treatment group were significantly shorter than those in the routine treatment group. According to Paley's criteria, the patients who achieved a score of excellent or good for fracture healing (84.6%vs. 53.8%;χ2=7.282,P=0.007) and function (92.3%vs. 66.7%;χ2=6.369,P=0.012) in the combined treatment group were significantly more than those in the routine treatment group. The scores of the HSS knee score (84.56 ± 7.42vs. 78.81 ± 5.33;t=3.391,P=0.002) and the scoring system of Baird and Jackson (85.01 ± 8.21vs. 79.21 ± 6.78;t=3.402,P=0.024) in the combined treatment group were significantly higher than those in the routine treatment group.Conclusion OralGuyu decoction and external application ofShengji-Yuhong plaster combined with Ilizarov external fixator and the accordion technique can promote recovery of the joint function, fracture healing and wound healing.
