The present of atlanto-axial pedicle screw fixation through posterior approach provide a new remedy for treating instability of pillow and cervical. A lot of researches have reported feasibility of atlanto-axial pedicle screw fixation, the results showed that it had advantages of easily exposure, less blood loss, shorter operative time, especially in treating as remedy fixation for atlanto-axial joint screw, atlas lateral mass screws and pedicle screw caused by injuries of tumor,inflammation and trauma. If not done properly, it can cause serious complications, such as iatrogenic fracture,injuries of vertebral artery and cervical spinal cord. Therefore,the safty and effectiveness of atlanto-axial pedicle screw fixation may be focus of research.

Objective To investigate the secrection of Polytuftsin, a macrophage activator in Pichia pastoris expression system. Methods The recombinant plasmid encoding polytuftsin was transformed into the yeast by chemical method, and the positive clones were screened and expressed under the induction of methanod. It was observed that the influence of polytuftsin on macrophage in vivo and in vitro. Results It was verified that the recombinant products was confirmed to be our target protein by SDS-PAGE analysis and PCR assay. The expressed product could activate macrophage to secret cytokine and enhance the capacity of macrophages to kill L1210 tumor cells, the maximum killing rate is up to 40 %. In vivo the leukemia therapeutic trial, the time of tumor arise was delayed; the survival time of L1210 tumor-bear mice treated with Polytuftsin was extended, which is about 20 day. Conclusion The recombination protein polytuftsin, which could activate macrophage and has anti-tumor activity.

Objective To investigate the relationship between androgen receptor CAG-gene polymorphism and androgen in male with salt sensitive hypertension.Methods Through the oral saline loading test and furosemide volume method male hypertension group were divided into salt-sensitive (SS group) and salt-insensitive (SR group).The samples from 161 males were selected in the study,including salt sensitive hypertension patients (SS group,61/161),salt-insensitive hypertension patients (SR group,40/161) and age-matched healthy samples (control group,60/161).All samples were sequenced with an analysis method (CAG) n repeated polymorphism,and determinated of total testosterone (TT) and free testosterone (FT) level in serum by electrochemiluminescence immunoassay.Results The number of CAG repeats was 14~34,average 22.4± 2.7.The CAG repeats of SS,SR and control group were 23.5±3.75,22.3±3.17 and 21.8±2.95,respectively.There were significant differences among the three groups (t=2.627~ 3.257,all P<0.05).The level of TT and FT in SS and SR group were decreased compared with that of control group.At the same time,the level of SS group was lower,and there were significant differences among the three groups (t=2.524~ 3.826,all P<0.05).Conclusion The androgen receptor gene repeat length and androgen levels are associated with male hypertension,especially salt-sensitive hypertension.Long (CAG) n repeat polymorphism maybe a genetic factor in the pathogenesis of hypertension.Plasma androgen levels may be used as a predictor of male salt sensitive hypertension.

A comprehensive analytical method based on ultra performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry has been developed for the simultaneous determination of 16 carcinogenic and allergenous dye stuffs (acid red 26, basic red 9, disperse blue 1, acid violet 49, disperse blue 3, solvent yellow 1, dispersed blue 106, disperse orange 3, disperse yellow 3, basic violet 1, basic violet 3, disperse red 1, solvent yellow 3, disperse blue 124, solvent yellow 2 and disperse orange 37).Various toy samples, including textile, leath er, paper, wood, balloon, modeling clay, limitation tattoo and aqueous liquid, were extracted under ultrason ication.Qualitative and quantitative analysis was carried out for the analyte under the MRM mode after the chromatographic separation on Waters ACQUITY UPLC BEH C_(18)(50 mm x 2.1 mm, 1.7 μm) column.The limits of quantitation(LOQ) for the 16 dyestuffs were in the range of 1.0-8.0 μg/kg.The mean recoveries at the three spiked levels of 5-100 μg/kg were 81.3%-98.6%, with the intra-day precision less than 11% and the inter-day precision less than 14%.The method is accurate, rapid, sensitive, and adapt to the inspec tion of the 16 dyestuffs in toys.

Objective To determine whether the candidates who are disqualified because of ear diseases during medical selection of flying cadets in China are qualified or not according to United States Air Force ( USAF ) Medical Standards Directory in order to raise suggestions for revising PLAAF medical standards for flying cadets.Methods Data of final selections from 2013 to 2015 and the conclusions were compared by different standards.Results and Conclusion There was a marked difference (x2 =7.99,P<0.05) in the disqualification rate of cadets that rose each year.There was no difference (x2 =5.39,P>0.05) in the disqualification rate related to ear diseases.Vestibular dysfunction and dysacousis were the leading causes of disqualification among ear diseases, making up 45.54% and 38.84% respectively, with other diseases less than 5%.Medical standards for ear diseases in China are more strict than in the USAF, so we should revise some PLAAF standards according to the USAF standards for reference, such as those for vestibular neuritis, dysacousis and tympanic disease in order to enlarge the source of cadets.

Background and purpose:Struma ovarii is a rare tumor, especially with extraovarian spreading. The study aimed to investigate the clinical and pathological features, diagnosis and differential diagnosis of ovarian goiter. Methods:Clinical and pathological features of 14 cases of benign and malignant ovarian goiter were observed. Immunohistochemical EnVision staining, PCR-DNA sequencing and review of related literature were also used. Results:In 14 cases of benign and malignant ovarian goiter, the average age of onset is 45.6 years (18-71 years old), and pelvic tumor is the main clinical manifestation. According to the related literature of diagnostic criteria, 12 cases are struma ovarii, which is consisted of hyperplasia of the thyroid tissue under microscopic examination, 1 case is malignant struma ovarii, which is papillary thyroid carcinoma by microscopic presentation, and 1 case is highly differentiated follicular carcinoma of ovarian origin (HDFCO), which is histological benign by microscopic presentation, but is malignant by biological behavior. Conclusion:Struma ovarii is a rare ovarian mondemal teratoma, with low rate of malignant change and beyond ovarian lesions disseminated microscopic histological benign struma ovarii is lower incidence, which has unique clinical and pathological features. Comprehensively considering the related literatures, this study indicates that the disease is in accordance with HDFCO. Struma ovarii prognosis is good, and should be differentiated from carcinoid and granular cell tumor.
