Immunohistological methods were used to investigate the presence of s-100 protein in 16 cases of malignant mesothelioma (MM) and 20 metastatic gastrointestinal adenocarcinoma of peritoneum. Positive staining for s-100 protein was observed in 14 of 16 MM, while it was negative in all metastatic gastrointestinal adenocarcinoma of peritoneum. Since antibodies to s-100 protein are readily available as standardised commercial products, the combined immunolocalisalion of s-100 protein should prove to be an efficient routine means of differentiating MM from difficult cases of metastatic gastrointestinal adenocarcinoma of peritoneum, in both necropsy and surgical cases.

Objective To analyze the CT, especially HRCT appearance of localized organizing pneumonia. Methods The CT scans of nine patients with histologically proved localized organizing pneumonia were studied retrospectively. Results The size of the lesions in nine cases varied from 2 to 4 cm( average 2.5 cm). Eight lesions were located in the peripheral lung parenchyma near the pleural surface. The lesions were detected as round in four, anomaly in five. The margin of six lesions had inward bow indentation. Infiltrating lesions in surrounding structures were found in four cases. Conclusion The CT, especially HRCT appearance of localized organizing pneumonia shows some features that can make most of them to be differentiated from other lesions.

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia,but its pathogenesis is still unclear.With the development of sleep medicine,obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is found to associate with the occurrence of AF and recurrence after catheter ablation.This article reviews the pathophysiology of OSA,and relationship between OSA and the occurrence of AF,and its mechanism.It indicates that clinicians should pay close attention to the existence of OSA during diagnosis and treatment of AF.

Objective To explore the incidence, causes and management of peripheral vascular complications after cardiac catheterization Methods Cardiac catheter data and clinical data of 1?745 patients were reviewed Results One hundred and two patients (5 9%) had peripheral vascular complications, including local hematoma (77, 4 4%), pseudoaneurysm (4, 0 23%), arteriovenous fistula(2, 0 11%), femoral arterial thrombosis(2, 0 11%), femoral venous thrombosis (3, 0 17%), pulmonary thromboembolism (2, 0 11%), external hemorrhage(13, 0 74%) The mortality was 0 06% (1/1745), and the surgery repair rates 0 11% ( 2/1?745 ) Conclusion Peripheral vascular complications of cardiac catheterization is not so rare, and has a good prognosis after conservative management

Objective To analyze the factors affecting quality of life (QOL) in patients with stroke. Methods Eight hundred and six stroke patients were recruited by using the stratification and random sampling method, and QOL questionnaire was applied. Results It was shown that QOL was worse comparatively in stroke patients with poorer education, divorce or lose of spouse, non-free medical service, unemployment, serious deficit of nervous function, while it was indicated by the results of multiple factor analysis that QOL was influenced mainly by such factors as education background, marriage and neurological function. Conclusion In order to improve QOL of patients, we should pay more attention to the health of elders, social security system, education and medical technology.

OBJECTIVE: To study the hospital infections caused by ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Kalispell.METHODS: Bacterial drug resistance of 460 stains of ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Kalispell pneumonia and the application of antibiotics in our hospital in 2005 were analyzed retrospectively.RESULTS: The infections caused by ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Kalispell pneumonia were more often found in department of respiratory diseases,ICU and neurosurgery patients,which were treated empirically predominantly with levofloxacin,followed by cefoperazone/sulbactam,but were treated mostly by carbapenems,levofloxacin,cefoperazone/sulbactam after the drug susceptibility test results were obtained.The drug combination was characterized predominantly by combined use of two kinds,at most 6 kinds in combination.CONCLUSION: In most of the cases the medication for infections caused by ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Kalispell pneumonia is effective and reasonable.However,in a few cases the application of antibiotics is irrational and nonstandard,which should be given fully attention.

Objective:To investigate the effects of the different static compressive stress on the proliferation and apoptosis of condylar chondrocytes in vitro.Methods: 0, 12, 24, 36 kPa static compressive stress were applied to the third passage of mandibular condylar chondrocytes for 1 hour respectively. The changes of proliferation and apoptosis of condylar chondrocytes were evaluated by flow cytometry analysis. Results: The index of proliferation and apoptosis of cells decreased with the magnitude value of static compressive stress except 24 kPa group. The most significant decrease of proliferative index and apoptosis index was found in 36 kPa group and 12 kPa group respectively. Conclusion: There might be some corelationships between magnitude of static compressive stress and the proliferation and apoptosis of condylar chondrocytes.

Objective To design an auxiliary measurement device for anterior cruciate ligament injury in order to improve the accuracy of specialist examination and postoperative functional assessment.Methods The device consisted of a main frame and support pads,which was designed based on the principles of anatomopathology and mechanical mechanics.The frame was set above and paralleled to the tibia,and the measurement scale was put at the vertical direction of the frame.The support pads were fixed to the tibia and patella respectively to execute auxiliary measurement by providing opposite acting force.Results The success rate of preliminary diagnosis by the device was higher than that by traditional method.Conclusion The device gains advantages in convenience,practicality,low cost and etc,and is worthy promoting in the orthopedics department.

Objective To explore the role of sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor (S1PR2) in human coronary artery endothelial cell proliferation in vitro. Methods MTT assay was used to detect cell proliferation in human coronary artery endothelial after treatment of S1P and S1PR2 antagonist JTE-013. Phosphor-ERK and total- ERK level were measured by western blot in endothelial after treatment of S1P and JTE-013. Results 1 μmol/L S1P significantly increased endothelial cells proliferation. S1PR2 antagonist JTE-013 inhibited S1P-induced endothelial cell proliferation in dose-dependent manner. S1PR2 antagonist JTE-013 significantly inhibited S1P-induced phosphor-ERK level in endothelial cells. Conclusion S1PR2 may involve in S1P-induced endothelial cell proliferation through activation of ERK pathway.

A method was developed for simultaneous determination of pyrrolizidine alkaloids and isoquinoline alkaloids in honey by dispersive solid phase extraction and high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry ( QuEChERS-HPLC-MS/MS) . The honey samples were extracted with acetonitrile solution and cleaned up with PSA absorbent. Agilent Poroshell 120 SB-C18 chromatographic column was used to separate alkaloids with high sensitivity and satisfactory resolution. The identification and quantification were achieved by using electrospray ionization in positive ion mode ( ESI+) with multiple reaction monitoring (MRM). Matrix-matched calibration curves with good correlation coefficients (R2>0. 99) were obtained in the concentration range of 0. 1-100 μg/L. The recoveries of the spiked samples at 1-100 μg/kg were in the range of 70% to 110% with the RSD of intra-day and inter-day lower than 15% and 20%, respectively. The limits of detection ( LOD) and limits of quantification ( LOQ) for all alkaloids were 0. 3 and 1. 0 μg/kg, respectively. This method was successfully applied to the simultaneous determination of pyrrolizidine alkaloids and isoquinoline alkaloids for quantification and confirmation in honey samples.
