Objective To study the expressions of miR-10a, miR-93 and miR-200a in malignant ovarian tumor tissues and their clinical significances.Methods Real-time quantitative PCR was used to detect the expression of 40 cases of normal ovarian tissue, 40 cases of benign ovarian cyst and 40 cases of miR-10a, miR-93 and miR-200a in malignant ovarian tumor tissues.Analysis of variance and t-Test were respectively applied to compare the expression of miR in different tissues and analyze the correlation between miR and clinicopathological characteristics of malignant ovarian tumor .Kaplan-Meier Log-rank test and Cox proportional hazards regression model were adopted in prognosis.Results The expression lev-els of miR-10a in ovarian cancer tissues were significantly higher than that in benign ovarian tumor tissues and normal ovari-an tissues (p<0.001), whereas the expression of miR-93 and miR-200a in the three types of tissues was no statistically significant difference (p>0.05).The expression quantity of miR-10a in malignant ovarian tumor tissues with greater omen-tum metastasis, lymph node metastasis and distant organ metastasis was significantly higher than that without metastasis ( p<0.05).The median survival time of patients with higher expression of miR -10a was lower than that of patients with low ex-pression of miR-10a (p=0.01).Multi-factor Cox model analysis showed that the expression quantity of miR -10a was an independent factor affecting survival prognosis in patients(p=0.002).Conclusion Our data suggest that miR-10a is asso-ciated with ovarian cancer metastasis, which is the main factor affecting prognosis in ovarian cancer.It might serve as a bio-marker for judging the prognosis in ovarian cancer.

Objective To evaluate the post-puncture complications in children,and to evaluate the difference in the occurrence rate of headache and backache between patients who had 1 hour of supine recumbency and those who had 4 hours of supine recumbency,to provide evidence for the standardized lumbar puncture (LP) procedure of children.Methods Inpatients who were older than 3 and had diagnostic LP in the course of their treatment between Nov.2012 and Apr.2013 were enrolled.The LP was performed by the same investigator under the standardized institutional guideline for LP and the information of number of LP attempts,duration of LP and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) drainage volume were recorded.After the procedure,all the children were randomly assigned into 2 groups:the test group had supine recumbency for 1 hour after LP,and the control group had it for 4 hours.For the first 5 days following LP,reports of headache and backache were recorded by another physician who didn't participate in this study.The difference in the occurrence rate of headache and backache between test group and control group was assessed by the chi-square test or Fisher's probabilities in 2 × 2 table.And a Logistic regression analysis was performed to assess the risk factors for the occurrence of the headache and backache.Results The overall frequency of headache was 4.6％ (4/87 cases).The frequency of headache was not significantly different between the test group (2.4％) and control group (6.7％) (P =0.617).And the overall frequency of backache was 19.5 ％ (17/87 cases),and it was not significantly different between the 2 groups (test group:21.4％,control group:17.8 ％,P =0.668).In a Logistic regression analysis,age (P =0.011,OR:6.884,95％ CI:1.398-33.906) and the previous history of lumbar puncture (P =0.018,0R:0.126,95 ％ CI:0.026-0.618) were significant risk factors for the occurrence of backache.The risk of backache in children with more than 2 times of LP was decreased.And the risk was higher in the children older than 6 years than those younger than 6 years.Conclusions Headache and backache were the most frequent post-puncture complications in children.There was no difference between short duration (1 hour) of supine recumbency and long duration (4 hours) in preventing the occurrence of headache and backache after LP.

Objective To investigate the cognition and behaviors of sun-protection and the facial photoaging in a Nanjing population, and to analyze the relationships between them. Methods The objects being investigated in Nanjing (n=974) were divided into 10 groups according to age. The ordinary information, knowledge and behavior of sun-protection and Glogau photoageing type of face were studied by questionnaires. The results were analyzed by a logistic regression model to select the related factors to photoageing. Results The risk of skin photoageing increased with age. Most of the 46-65 years old crowds were type Ⅲ photoageing. Most of the objects being investigated had some knowledge and active awareness of sun-protection and could use some ways to protect themselves from sun. However, most people did not use the sunscreen correctly. Those who had higher level awareness and knowledge of sunprotection suffered less risk from skin photoageing. Sunbath without sunscreen for a long time outside activity was a high risk factor of development to skin photoageing. Shade, broad-brimmed hat and sun-protection in autumn were the protective factors. Conclusion Active awareness and correct methods could help prevent skin photoageing. In order to avoid the damages to skin from ultraviolet efficiently, the accurate ways of using sunscreens should be well understood.

OBJECTIVE To provide reference for prevention and control of nosocomial infection based on the(investigation) of the distribution characteristics of nosocomial infection bacteria and analysis of their antibiotic-(resistance) in wards of gerontologic disease.METHODS The bacteria from specimens of Department of(Gerontology) were cultured and identified,and then antibiotic susceptibility tests were done.These nosocomial(infection) cases judged by the department of nosocomial infection control according to the diagnostic criterion of nosocomial(infection) were analyzed.RESULTS The incidences of nosocomial infection of Department of(Gerontology) were higher in respiratory system,urinary catheter and gastrointestinal tract.A total of 223 strains of pathogens were from(nosocomial) infection and the most commonly encountered pathogens of them were Candida albicans,Pseudomonas aeruginosa,and Escherichia coli.The results of antibiotic susceptibility tests showed that pathogens from nosocomial infection in Department of Gerontology were sensitive to such antibiotics as imipenem,meropenem and polymyxin(98 %), their drug-resistance to the other common antibiotics was very severe.CONCLUSIONS(Possible) measures to reduce nosocomial infection are to strengthen hospital management,reinforce disinfection and sterilization,reasonably use antibiotics,cure the underlying diseases, and shorten(hospital) stay.

Objective To analyze the clinicopathologic characteristics,treatment and prognosis of retinoblasto-ma without calcification.Methods The clinic and pathologic data of 20 cases of retinoblastoma without calcification were analyzed retrospectively.All the cases were selected from 710 cases of retinoblastoma archived in Beijing Tongren Hospital,Capital Medical University from April 2010 to April 2015.The inclusion criteria was no calcification on CT scan before treatment.The patients after enuclea-tion were diagnosed according to pathology;the patients without enu-cleation were diagnosed according to clinical manifestations,Retcam fundus,ophthalmic ultrasound and the reduction of tumor after chemotherapy.The clinical features,treatment and prognosis were summarized through statistical analysis of the 20 cases.The patients were followed -up through clinical reexamination and telephone calls.Results In this study,there were 14(70.0%)male and 6(30.0%)female patient′s;there were 19 cases(95.0%)less than 5 -year -old,14 cases (70.0%)less than 3 -year -old,1 case (5.0%)less than 1 -year -old.Eighteen cases (90.0%)were unilateral disease,and 2 cases (10.0%)were bilateral disease.According to international Intraocular Retinoblastoma Classification stage:4 cases (18.2%)in stage E ,17 cases (77.3%)in stage D ,1 case (4.5%)in stage C.Five cases (25.0%)were enucleated eyes,and pathology report was retinoblastoma.Nine cases (45.0%) were treated with pre -enucleation chemotherapy,and finally enucleated after poor tumor shrinkage or recurrence,and the pathology was retinoblastoma.Five cases (25.0%)without enucleation were stable.One case (5.0%)failed to follow -up owing to the patients irregular treatment.In 14 enucleation cases,histopathologic high risk factors could be found in 3 cases (21 .4%),and couldn′t be found in the other 11 cases (78.6%).In the cases that were not enuclea-ted,the tumor diminished in size or new calcification presented in the fundus examination,and in 12 cases,new calcifi-cation was pre-sented on follow -up CT scan.Follow -up failed in 1 case(5.0%),but follow -up was available for 19 cases,and among them 13 cases (68.4%)were disease -free survival and 6 cases (31 .6%)were alive with tumor. Conclusions Close attention should be paid to the untypical retinoblastoma with no calcification on CT scan through well -taken medical history and meticulous imaging examination,in order to give early diagnosis and therapy.

Objective To investigate the applicability of Cys C-based formulas for prediction of GFR in Chinese patients with CKD.Methods A total of 176 adult patients with CKD including 90 males and 86 females collected from 4 hospitals located in different geographic regions of China (Beijing,Shanghai,Dalian and Changsha) were enrolled in this study from September 2007 to July 2009.The rGFR was measured using 99mTc-DTPA clearance rate two-sample method.Cystantic C was measured by PETIA and PENIA respectively.The results of eGFR in the Larsson formula,Grubb formula,Hoek formula,Filler formula,Stevens formula and Hojs formula were compared with the rGFR to evaluate the calculation coherence,bias,precision,accuracy and the performance of correct phasing of the formulas.Results The mean 99mTc-DTPA clearance was [40.70 ( 19.09 - 86.49)] ml · min-1 · ( 1.73m2 ) -1.Significant difference was witnessed in the evaluation of GFR estimation formulas calculated by PETIA and PENIA (P ＜0.01).ICC and Spearman correlation analysis revealed a significant correlation between eGFR and rGFR.The ICCs of eGFR and rGFR ranged from 0.874 to 0.938.Compared with rGFR,the 30％ accuracy of all the eight evaluation formulas using PETIA and PENIA method were lower than 60％.The percentages of correct phasing in all the 5 stages of CKD were not ideal.With these formulas,percentages of correct phasing from CKD stage 2 to CKD stage 4 were lower than 65％.The eGFRs were underestimated by formulas evaluated by PENIA in CKD stage 1.All the eGFRs were overestimated remarkably by all equations in CKD stage 5.Conclusions None of the eight Cys C based formulas are ideal for estimation of GFR in Chinese CKD patients,and they can not be applied to Chinese patients directly.For this patient population,further studies will be needed to develop a more accurate Cys C-based GFR estimation formula that includes ethnicity,age and other factors.

Objective To investigate the relationship between p53 and miR-29b in myofibroblasts (MFs)induced from human Tenon fibroblasts (HTFs).Methods Human Tenon tissues were obtained from strabismus surgery patients in the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from March to July 2016.The primary HTFs were cultured by tissue culture method and passaged to 2-4 generations.The cells were divided into 4 groups:HTFs group cells were normally cultured,the TGF-β1 activation group cells was activated with 10 ng/ml tumor necrosis factorβ1 (TGF-β1),the siRNA transfection group and the negative control group were transfected with p53 siRNA and negative siRNA,respectively.The expression of p53 protein and cell migration ability of HTFs and MFs were detected by immunohistochemical and cell scratch assay.The relative expression level of miR-29b and p53 mRNA in each group was detected by real-time PCR.This study followed the Helsinki declaration and the patients or their guardians signed informed consent.Results The primary HTFs had long fusiform shape,and were arranged in a spiral shape.After activated by TGF-β1,the cells were transformed into MFs,and the cell morphology was irregular and the arrangement was disordered.The staining intensity of p53 protein in TGF-β1 activation group was significantly stronger than that in HTFs group (t =-10.384,P＜0.05).The migration distance of TGF-β1 activation group cells was significantly larger than that of HTFs group (P＜0.05).The relative expression level of p53 mRNA was 1.00±0.00,3.95±2.61,0.06±0.06 and 0.98±0.16 in HTFs group,TGF-β1 activation group,siRNA transfection group and negative control group,respectively;the relative expression levels of miR-29b was 1.00±0.00,0.54±0.09,5.10±2.31 and 1.03 ±0.09 in HTFs group,TGF-β31 activation group,siRNA transfection group and negative control group,respectively;the overall differences were statistically significant (p53 mRNA:F =6.688,P =0.006;miR-29b:F=13.640,P=0.000).The relative expression of p53 mRNA was significantly higher and the relative expression of miR-29b was significantly lower in the TGFβ1 activation groups than those in the HTFs group and siRNA transfection group,the differences were statistically significant (all at P＜0.05).Conclusions During the process of HTFs transforming to MFs,the expression of p53 is upregulated and the expression of miR-29b is downregulated,Supressing the expression of p53 can upregulate the expression of miR-29b.There may exist interactions between p53 and miR-29b,which regulate the formation of fibrotic scars.
