This paper introduces several test methods of characteristics of alarm indicator lights which can be used in the medical alarm system to verify the compliance of YY 0709-2009. These methods include the direct measurement of the pulse current supply of the alarm signals, image analysing of a video and reception by photoelectric sensor. After the comparation of the advantages and disadvantages among these methods, this paper proposes a new method of signal reception. This method which used a silicon photocell as the sensor with light filter in its front, and amplified circuit in the output end then used an oscillograph as the reviewer, has resolved the testing difficulties of the flashing signal simulating by LCD, and can be applied to test the alarm indicator lights in any medical electrical equipment.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of YKL‐40 and CEA in malignant pleural effusion .Methods There were 45 cases of benign pleural effusion and 52 patients with malignant pleural effusion in this study from November 2013 to No‐vember 2014 .Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) and electrochemi lumine scence immunoassay(ECLIA) method were carried out to detect the concentration of YKL‐40 and CEA respectively .The differences of the two groups of patients between YKL‐40 and CEA levels were compared ,and the correlation between YKL‐40 and clinical pathology of malignant pleural effusion were analyzed .In addition ,the receiver‐operating characteristic curve(ROC curve) was used to compare the diagnostic value be‐tween YKL‐40 and CEA .Results The average value of YKL‐40 in malignant pleural effusion was (189 .5 ± 147 .0)ng/mL ,and sig‐nificantly higher than in benign pleural effusion group(P< 0 .05) .The elevated level of YKL‐40 was related to tumor types and lymphatic metastasis(P<0 .05) ,but it had no correlation with the gender ,age and degree of tumor differentiation(P>0 .05) .The diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of YKL‐40 was 80 .9% and 51 .2% ,which was lower than CEA(83 .1% and 74 .6% )(P<0 .05) .However ,the sensitivity and specificity was 90 .6% and 88 .2% when combined the two biomarkers together .Conclusion YKL‐40 have a certain clinical diagnostic value in malignant pleural effusion ,it indicate to adenocarcinoma or advanced cancer when the level of YKL‐40 rised .Since the sensitivity and specificity is lower than traditional biomarker of CEA ,we should combine with the other tumor markers to improve the diagnostic accuracy .

Macrophages are major effecter cells of nonspecific immune response,the polarization of which plays a great role in inflammation,repairing and angiogenesis.According to functional phenotypes,macrophages can be polarized to classically activated type (M1),which could promote angiogenesis,and alternatively activated type (M2),which could inhibit angiogenesis.The proportion of M1/M2 could modulate the growth of choroidal neovascularization (CNV).Under the conditions of aging and injury within the retina,macrophages may polarize to M2,which could generate several proangiogenic factors,initiating and promoting the formation of angiogenesis and fibrous scar.Therefore,regulation of macrophage polarization is expected to inhibit angiogenesis and provide new insight for treatment of CNV.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of acupoint application and moving cupping plus photo ionization treatment apparatus in treating hyperplasia of mammary glands. Method Sixty patients with hyperplasia of mammary glands were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 30 in each group. The treatment group was intervened by acupoint application and moving cupping plus photo ionization treatment apparatus, while the control group was by oral administration of Tamoxifen and Ru Pi San Jie tablets. The breast pain and lump score was observed before and after 2-month treatment, and the clinical efficacy was compared. Result The breast pain and lump scores were significantly changed in both groups after intervention (P<0.05). After intervention, there was no significant difference in comparing the breast pain and lump score between the two groups (P>0.05). The total effective rate was 96.7% in the treatment group versus 86.7% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion Acupoint application plus moving cupping plus photo ionization treatment is an effective method in treating hyperplasia of mammary glands, and it can ease or reduce breast pain, and improve or reduce the lump.

[Objective] To investigate the effect of one-stage bilateral hip replacement in the treatment of late stage of hip joint ankylosis.[Methods]Ninteen patients(38 hips)with hip ankylosis were taken as research samples.Patients underwent biologically total hip replacement with posterolateral incision and acetabular plastic repair after second osteotomy.The ankle between acetabulum and femoral body was modulated according to the pre-operative deformation.A larger artificial prosthesis was installed.Early functional exercises were taken after operation.[Results]All cases were given a mean follow-up of 5.5 years(1~8 yrs).Dislocation was found in 2 cases and recovered after manual reduction.Slight fissure fractures were found in 2 hips and no special management was given.Slight heterotopic ossification was found in 6 hips,with grade Ⅰ in 3 hips,grade Ⅱ in 3 hips according to Brooker Classification.No obvious functional influence was found.The flexion-extension range increased from 0? pre-operation to average 81?(65?~115?)and the mean moving range reached 160?(110?~230?).[Conclusion]Bilateral hip replacement is a good method to reconstruct the hip function,promote the living standard.Artificial joint damage in the traditional two stage operations was avoided.It also has advantages of less medical expenses for patients and less pain after surgery.Functional exercises could be started earlier.It is a satisfactory method for the treatment of hip joint ankylosis.

Objective:To investigate the expressions of Bag-1 and Bcl-2 in colorectal cancer and evaluate their clinical significance.Methods:Bag-1 and Bcl-2 expressions were studied by immunohistochemical Streptavidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex(SABC)method in 64 samples of colorectal cancer tissues,10 normal colorectal tissues.Results:Bag-1 was positively related to the tumor grade,distant metastasis,stages of Dukes and prognosis,but was not related to the pathological cell types,tumor diameter,depth of invasion and lymph node metastasis.Bcl-2 was not correlated to these clinicopathologic factors.There was a positive correlation between Bag-1 and Bcl-2(r=0.475).Conclusion:The over expression of Bag-1 and Bcl-2 protein in colorectal cancer can affect the generation of colorectal cancer by participating in the regulation of apoptosis.

[Objective]To evaluate the therapeutic effect of arthroscopic treatment for osteoarthritis of the knee,and explore the factors related to clinical outcome. [Methods]Three hundred and sixty-two patients with knee osteoarthritis were treated by arthroscopic surgery in the 88th hospital from May 2000 to November 2007. Of them,124 patients were followed-up completely. Quantified clinical data were input into computer and analyzed statistically by SPSS 16.0 software. Lysholm score was used to evaluate the therapeutic effect. Lysholm scores before surgery and at follow up were compared with paired t test. Patients were divided into different subgroups according to sex,locking,X -ray grade,arthroscopic grade and surgical methods. Lysholm scores at the final follow up of different subgroups were compared with variance analysis. The factors related to operation outcome were explored by using multiple stepwise linear regression analysis.[Results]One hundred and twenty-four patients were followed up from 7 to 96 months with an average of 39.6 months. Preoperative Lysholm score was (46.10?2.80),the score at follow up was (70.69+2.90),there was significant difference between preoperative score and at follow up (t=9.362,P0.05). The difference was significant between groups whether locking or not (F=10.654,P
