Objective To understand the prevalence and awareness of Toxoplasma gondii of the pregnant women in Bazhou City,Hebei Province,so as to provide the evidence for formulating effective prevention and control interventions. Methods The pregnant women with prenatal screening in the Fourth People’s Hospital in Langfang City were selected and investigated with questionnaires. A part of the pregnant women were randomly sampled and received the ELISA test of the antibodies against T. gondii. Results Totally 672 pregnant women accepted the questionnaire survey,with an awareness rate of 19.49%(131/672). Totally 526 pregnant women of them were randomly selected to take the ELISA test,with a positive rate of 13.88%(73/526). The awareness rate and infection rate of T. gondii were related to the education level,occupation and place of residence (c2=5.89-17.62,all P<0.05),and the infection rate was negatively related to the awareness rate(c2=5.37,P<0.05). Con?clusion Increasing the awareness rate of toxoplasmosis knowledge is one of the effective methods to control the disease. There?fore,the health education about T. gondii should be carried out actively.

Objective To investigate the expressions and clinical significance of PPAR? and MMP-9 in the genesis and development of hypertensive disorder-complicating pregnancy(HDCP).Methods The expressions of PPAR? and MMP-9 in placenta of 31 normal pregnant women(control group) and 36 pregnant women with hypertensive disorder-complicating pregnancy(experimental group) were detected by using SP method of immunohistochemistry,and the relationship between PPAR? and MMP-9 expressions and hypertensive disorder-complicating pregnancy was explored.Results ① PPAR? expression in placental tissues was significantly higher in the experimental group than in the control group(P

This study aimed at investigating the effects and mechanisms of 7-O-succinyl macrolactin A in inhibi-ting human lung cancer. After treatment of human lung cancer cell lines H460 with 7-O-succinyl macrolactin A, MTS assay was employed to determine cell proliferation;crystal violet staining was used to detect cell adhesion of H460;transwell chamber assay and wound healing assay were performed to evaluate cell invasion and migration;and flow cytometry assay was adopted to evaluate cell cycle. Western blotting and real-time PCR were also employed to determine the expression of β-catenin, c-Myc, Cyclin D1, vimentin, N-cadherin, CD44, integrin β1, Bcl-2 , Survivin and MMP-2/9. The phosphorylation of AKT and mTOR was determined as well. In vitro prolifera-tion of H460 was inhibited significantly by 7-O-succinyl macrolactin A. Cell adhesion, invasion and migration abilities were also attenuated. Western blot and real-time PCR showed that the expressions of β-catenin, c-Myc, cyclin D1, vimentin, N-cadherin, CD44, integrin β1, Bcl-2, Survivin and MMP-2/9 were down-regulated by 7-O-succinyl macrolactin A. It was also found that phosphorylation of AKT and mTOR was inhibited by 7-O-succinyl macrolactin A. 7-O-succinyl macrolactin A can inhibit the in vitro growth and invasion of human lung cancer cell lines H460.

BACKGROUND:Finite element contact analysis was performed in premolars of lower mandible with enamelo-dentinal junction defects, which provided biomechanical evidence for the prevention of wedge-shaped defect and occlusion treatment.
OBJECTIVE:To analyze the effects of undermining damage of the enamelo-dentinal junction on the stress distribution of sclerous tissues of dental cervix.
METHODS:Triangle defects were established and models of wedge-shaped defect were designed in mandibular premolar along the enamelo-dentinal junction. The stresses during tightly biting and masticatory movement were simulated. Nonlinear contact analysis was conducted in sclerous tissues of mandibular premolar in the buccal cervical region.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:By simulating the stresses during tightly biting and masticatory movement, the stresses were concentrated in the defected regions of mandibular premolar at the enamelo-dentinal junction. With the defect length increased in size, the stress value and the magnitude of the stress field both increased. These indicated that the destruction of enamelo-dentinal junction altered stress distribution in the buccal cervical region. In the clinic, wedge-shaped defect should be fil ed promptly.

Objective To observe the time-intensity curve characteristics of contrast agents in intraocular tumor.Methods A total of 236 patients (238 eyes) with intraocular tumor were enrolled in this study.All the patients received regular ophthalmologic examination,two dimensional ultrasound,color doppler ultrasonography and contrast-enhanced ultrasonography.There were 166 patients (166 eyes) with choroidal melanoma,16 patients (18 eyes) with choroidal metastatic carcinoma,52 patients (52 eyes) with choroidal hemangioma,two patients (two eyes) with retinal hemangioma.The whole process of contrast-enhanced ultrasound were recorded, and exported as t images of Dicom format.These images were processed by Sonoliver software (Tomteck Company, Germany) to drawn the time-intensity curve of contrast agents in the intraocular tumors.Results All intraocular lesions were completely filled with contrast agent,concentric filling from the periphery to the center can be documented in some cases.The time-intensity curve of choroidal hemangioma and retinal hemangioma were basically the same.The time-intensity curve of choroidal melanoma and choroidal metastatic carcinoma were also basically the same.In the filling phase,all tumors were rapid filling type.In the regression phase,contrast agent subsided earlier than in control tissue within the melanoma or metastatic carcinoma lesions,but subsided synchronous or slightly faster than in control tissue within the choroidal hemangioma and retinal hemangioma lesions.Among 166 eyes with choroidal melanoma,138 eyes (83.1％) were in full compliance with the above changes,28 eyes (16.9％) were largely in line with these changes.All the eyes (100.0％) with choroidal metastatic carcinoma,choroidal hemangioma and retinal hemangioma were in full compliance with the above changes.Conclusion Time-intensity curve is quickly filling and fast regression for malignant intraocular tumors,but is quickly filling and slow regression for benign intraocular tumors.

Objective:To establish an HPLC method for the determination of isomeric impurity in fasudil hydrochloride. Meth-ods:The chromatographic method was carried out on a Kromasil 100-5 Phenyl C18 column with phenyl bonded silica as the filler (250 mm × 4. 6 mm, 5 μm), and phosphate buffer (10 mmol· L-1 ammonium dihydrogen phosphate, adjusting pH to 4. 0 with 1% phos-phoric acid) -acetonitrile (80∶ 20) was used as the mobile phase. The detection wavelength was 275nm and the column temperature was 40℃. The flow rate was 1. 0 ml· min-1 , and the injection volume was 10 μl. Results:Fasudil hydrochloride and its derivative was linear within the range of 0. 148-2. 960 μg·ml-1(r=1. 0000) and 0. 101-2. 014μg·ml-1(r=0. 999 9), respectively. The av-erage recovery of isomer impurity in fasudil hydrochloride was 101. 9% with RSD of 0. 98%(n=9). Conclusion:The method is sim-ple,accurate and reproducible,which can be used for the quality control of fasudil hydrochloride and its isomer.
