Objective To investigate the role of compound traditional Chinese medicine Yiqilin in the regulation of immune-related genes expression in spontaneously hypertensive rats(SHR).Methods Ten SHR were randomly divided into test group(fed with Yiqilin and ordinary food at the ratio of 1:9 for 6 months,n=5)and control group(fed with ordinary food for 6 months,n=5).Total RNA was extracted from myocardial tissues of SHR after 6 months,and gene chip hybridization technique was employed to analyse the expression of immune-regulated genes of myocardial tissues in two groups.The genes with differentiation expression were screened,and were verified by Real-time PCR.Results The expression of 32 immune-related genes were up-regulated in the test group,including interleukin(IL)6 receptor,IL-6 signal transduction factor,chemotatic factor,antigen presenting molecule,antibody receptor,heat shock protein(Hsp), etc.No immune-related gene was down-regulated in test group.The results of 2 immune-related genes(Hsp 105 and Hsp 90)detected by Real-time PCR were consistent with those by gene chip hybridization.Conclusion Part of the immune-related genes in myocardial tissues in SHR may be up-regulated by Yiqiling,which indicates that Yiqiling may play a role in the regulation of expression of immune-related genes in SHR.

Objective:To review the research hotspots and evolution of electroencephalogram (EEG) biofeedback in attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) by knowledge mapping software.Methods:Based on web of science core collection database,we searched the literature with keywords (EEG biofeedback OR neurofeedback) AND (ADHD OR attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder) in topic and time limit set before December 31,2015.319 literature were accepted,using the CiteSpace to depict the hot keywords,cited references and countries.Results:United States of America,Germany,Netherlands were top 3 countries in publishing papers of EEG biofeedback in ADHD.Based on burst of cited references,the research evolution of EEG biofeedback in ADHD could be divided into three stages.The hotspots of EEG biofeedback in ADHD were Slow Cortical Potentials protocol and double-blind placebo-controlled study.Conclusion:Future research should focus on the mechanism of EEG biofeedback and such known protocols for individualized treatment,or be designed along the lines of learning theory.

Objective To investigate the use situation of sunscreen agent in the sunblock cosmetics.Methods Statistic analysis was performed in the kinds,frequencies,dosages of sunsereen agents and the mark dosage coincidence in 414 cosmetics from Sep.2004 to Aug.2007.Results Fourteen kinds of sunscreen agents including phenylbenzimidazole sulphonic acid and its potassium,sodium and triethanolamine salts,benzophenone-4,benzophenone-5,benzophenone-3,isopentyl p-methoxycirmamate, 4-methylbenzylidene camphor,ethylhexyl dimethyl PABA,butyl methoxydibenzoylmethane,octocrylene,ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate,ethylhexyl salicylate,ethylhexyl triazone,methylene bis-benzotriazolyl tetramethylbutylphenol,bis- ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine were detected in 414 cosmetics.The use frequency of ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate was above 90%,butyl methoxydibenzoylmethane was 30%,benzophenone-3 and ethylhexyl salicylate were 15% and 11% respectively,and others were less than 10%.The rate of exceed standard limit of ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate,octocrylene, ethylhexyl salicylate,4-methylbenzylidene camphor ethylhexyl dimethyl PABA were 0.24%,0.97%,1.21%,0.48% and 0.24% respectively.The mark dosage coincidence rate of 14 kinds of sunscreen agents were from 42.9% to 89.5%.Conclusion The many kinds of sunscreen agents were used in the sunblock cosmetics,so the special attention should be paid to the cosmetics safety.

Objective To compare the imaging of 99 Tcm‐MNLS and 99 Tcm‐HL91 for the hypoxic assessment in the tumor af‐ter radiotherapy .Methods Twenty four Kunming mice models bearing H22 liver cancer xenografts which tumor were treated ra‐diotherapy for 25 Gy were divided into 99 Tcm‐MNLS instant group ,99 Tcm‐MNLS 48 h group ,99 Tcm‐HL91 instant group ,99 Tcm‐HL91 48 h group and injected the matching 99 Tcm‐MNLS or 99 Tcm‐HL91 to image .The technique of ROI was adopted to calculated the T/NT on the image .Immunohistochemical stain methods were used to evaluate the level of HIF‐1αabout tumors after imaging . Two sample t test was performed .Results The T/NT and the HIF‐1α level about instant (3 .36 ± 0 .20 ,88 .55% ± 0 .83% )were higher than and 48 h (2 .25 ± 0 .43 ,22 .75% ± 3 .35% )in 99 Tcm‐MNLS group(P<0 .05) ,then in 99 Tcm‐HL91 group the T/NT and the HIF‐1αlevel about instant (3 .23 ± 0 .90 ,90 .55% ± 2 .61% )were higher than 48 h (2 .79 ± 0 .85 ,25 .88% ± 3 .76% )(P<0 .05) .The difference of T/NT ,HIF‐1αlevel about instant in 99 Tcm‐MNLS group and 99 Tcm‐HL91 group were no significant(P>0 .05)and the same to the T/NT ,HIF‐1αlevel about 48h in 99 Tcm‐MNLS group and 99 Tcm‐HL91 group(P>0 .05) .Conclusion 99 Tcm‐MNLS hypoxia imaging could provide the change of hypoxia comparable to 99 Tcm‐HL91 ,and the two radiopharmaceutical could both show high accuracy rate in evaluating the hypoxia in the tumor .

Objective To explore the technique outcome of fixing the ventral stress pedicle screws into the injured vertebrae, as a method to enhance the posterior internal fixation. Methods From March 2002 to March 2005, 33 single thoracolumbar fractures were studied retrospectively. Among which, 16 cases were treated with the above method(group A), and the other 17 were treated with traditional two-level fixation(group B). Group A involved 11 males and 5 females, aged 48 years averagely(range, 32-74 years); and group B included 12 males and 5 females, aged from 21 to 61 years(mean, 40 years). All the patients underwent the operation within up to 3 weeks after fracture. For the injured vertebral bodies, their pedicles were intact on either unilateral or bilateral side, and their lower half and endplate were free from split. In group A, the pedicle screws in the injured vertebrae were used to achieve the ventral press vertical to the distraction for the stress neutralization, and also with the routine distraction and lordosis restoration, simultaneously. The mean follow-up period was 11 months with a range from 6 to 24 months. Results After operation, the optimal Cobb angle and anterior column restoration were achieved through the ventral reduction from the injured vertebral body, which was the contribution from the vertical stress pedicle screw. The degree in anterior movement of injured vertebrae pre- and postoperatively was much more in group A than group B, and the difference was of statistical significance(P

0.4,P0.05)with HHS.[Conclusion]The result of this study suggest that HHS can not capture additional important quality of life domains except for physical function and pain relief that are influenced by THA.So it's necessary to combine HHS and a quality of life survey such as SF-36 to allow a more global assessment of THA.

Objective To design and construct a vector of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) small interfering RNA (siRNA),and to investigate the effect of the recombinant plasmid on the proliferation and apoptosis of gastric cancer cell SGC7901. Methods The PAVU6+27-STAT3 siRNA expression vector was constructed, then transfected into the cultured gastric cancer cells SGC7901 by DOTAP method. STAT3 mRNA and protein in SGC7901 were determined by RT-PCR and Western blotting respectively. Cell proliferation was tested by MTT and 3H-TdR incorporation. Cell apoptosis percentage and bcl-2 expression were observed by TUNEL and flow cytometry respectively. Results The PAVU6+27-STAT3 siRNA expression vector was successfully constructed. In the transfected SGC7901 cells, cell proliferation, 3H-TdR incorporation and bcl-2 expression were decreased, and cell apoptosis percentage was increased. Conclusion PAVU6+27-STAT3 siRNA expression vector may be an efficient method to inhibit the proliferation and promote the apoptosis of gastric cancer cells.
