An electrochemical aptasensor for Pb2+ was constructed based on the layer-by-layer assembly of graphene (GR) and anthraquinone -2-sulfonic acid sodium salt (AQMS) on the surface of Pb2+ aptamer. The mercapto-modified Pb2+ aptamer was first anchored on a gold electrode. Then the highly conductive material of GR was adsorbed on apt through the unique π-π stacking interaction, which was further used for the assembly and signal amplification of the electroactive AQMS. Upon interaction with Pb2+ ions, the apt on the aptasensor undergone conformational switch from a single-stranded form to the G-quadruplex structure, causing the GR assembled with AQMS releasing from the electrode surface into solution. As a result, the electrochemical signal of AQMS on the aptasensor was substantially reduced. Base on this concept, a useful platform for detection of Pb2+ ions was constructed. Under the optimal experimental conditions, the attenuation of peak currents (△Ipa ) showed linear relationship with the logarithm of Pb2+ concentrations (lgCPb2+) over the range from 5. 0×10-10 to 5. 0×10-8 mol/ L. The detection limit was estimated to be 6. 0×10-11 mol/ L.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of early intervention of second-line treatment for advanced breast cancer patients who experienced elevated tumor marker without any evidence for progress on imaging after effective first-line treatment. Methods We recruited 42 metastatic breast cancer patients experiencing elevated tumor marker (CEA or CA-153) meanwhile, who had merely increased tumor markers again in regular review after effective first-line treatment. Patients were divided into two groups: 20 patients in treatment group were given second-line treatment (palliative chemotherapy); 22 patients in observation group insisted on regular follow-up without any changing of treatment strategy. We mainly evaluated PFSmarker , which was defined as the time between tumor markers increase and disease progression. Results CEA and CA-153 in patients with advanced breast cancer showed a tendency to decrease after first-line chemotherapy , which can be reduced again by second-line treatment while increased in regular review , and the observation group continued to rise until disease progressed. The PFSmarker in treatment group was 13.65 (6 ~ 24) months while that of the observation group was 8.18 (3 ~ 15) months. The difference of PFS between these two groups was statistically significant (P < 0.05) and the median time to disease progression in treatment group was significantly longer than that in observation group. Conclusions Early intervention of second-line treatment for advanced breast cancer patients who only experienced elevated tumor marker after effective first-line treatment could slow down disease progression and improve the quality of life.

Objective To analyze the safety and effect of non-invasive pressure support ventilation in 32 patients by using a helmet and to give the appropriate way of patients who need non-invasive ventilation ( NIV) support after congenital heart disease surgery. Methods Patients over one year old after congential heart disease surgery were admitted in our Department of Cardiovascular Thoracic Surgery from July 2015 to December 2015. Patients who get clinically improved within one hour were divided into the early improved group( Group-E) ,otherwise they were classified to non-early improved group( Group-NE) . The general infor-mation,diagnosis, indication of NIV, ICU and hospital stay, complications, and mortality were collected. Results Thirty-two patients were engaged in this study,including 18 patients(56. 25%) in Group-E and 14 patients(43. 75%) in Group-NE. Patients who got improved in the first hour might have a higher incidence of avoiding reintubation[83. 33%(15/18) vs. 42. 86%(6/14),P=0. 02]. The heart rate,respiratory rate, pH,PaO2/FiO2 and lactate were improved in Group-E compared with Group-NE after the first hour by using helmet. At the end of NIV,the oxygenation showed no difference but the PaCO2 was lower in Group-E. In Group-E,the values showed a trend of improvement,while the values in Group-NE showed not only no statis-tical significance in different time points but also seemed to have a tendency of hypercapnia and reduced com-fort behavior scale in the end of NIV. There were 6 cases in Group-E and 10 cases in Group-NE developed ventilation associated pneumonia with the incidence of 33. 33%(6/18) and 71. 43%(10/14),respectively, which was significant difference (χ2 =4. 571,P =0. 03). The total duration of mechanical ventilation of Group-E was shorter than that of Group-NE [ ( 136. 72 ± 151. 49 ) h vs. ( 252. 79 ± 155. 33 ) h, P <0. 05 ] . Conclusion NIV through a helmet in children could be well tolerated and avoid re-intubation. Patients who get improved earlier may have more clinical advantages,such as less time of mechanical ventilation and lower incidence of postoperative complications. Early improvement can be considered as a valuable indicator wheth-er the patient needs to use NIV continuously.

In 1999, the nomenclature and case definitions for neuropsychiatric lupus syndromes were published by American College of Rheumatology (ACR), and the cognition of neuropsychiatric damage of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) was gradually unified and standardized. Lupus headache is an intractable problem in SLE, especially in SLE patients complicated with multiple organ injury. In general, vascular headache is common in most SLE patients, and a small number of SLE patients complicated with nervous headache are found in clinic. Moreover, its pathophysiological mechanism is far from being understood. Although early diagnosis is essential for good outcomes, the diagnosis method is rather confused in the world. There still exist some limitations in the proposal of clinical classification of headache from ACR and International Headache Society (IHS), and the proposal does not mention the classification of headache related to psychiatric damage. Current therapeutic regimens are almost exclusively based on empirical evidence. Treatment approaches include symptomatic treatment, immunosuppressive, anticoagulant and anti-aggregant therapies. It provides enormous and hopeful space in research of combined therapy strategy, especially in the field of traditional Chinese medicine. The authors discussed the relationship between lupus headache and headache due to internal injury in the view of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine, and suggested that the treatment strategy for lupus headache should be made in argument with the headache due to internal injury. Syndrome differentiation treatment according to deficiency in the root and excess in the branch and the therapy for activating blood to dredge collaterals maybe have great advantages in treatment of the headache in SLE.

BACKGROUND: Classic isolation method of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) is Percoll density gradient centrifugation. Blood cell component was removed. However, this method is complicated. Preparation density was needed when isolating dog bone marrow. Moreover, centrifugation was frequent, which had a great damage to cells. OBJECTIVE: To establish methods of the isolation, proliferation, culture and osteoinduction of canine BMSCs, and observe the in vitro proliferation and ability to osteoinduction differentiation. METHODS: 10 mL bone marrow was extracted from dog posterior superior iliac spine, heparin anticoagulation, diluted using Hanks juice, treated with 1.077 g/mL Ficoll solution 3 mL, and centrifuged at 2 000 r/min for 20 minutes. Karyocytes were absorbed to form white cloudlike layering interface, and then centrifuged twice using DMEM supplemented with fetal bovine serum, incubated at 12×10~4/cm~2 at 37 ℃ in a 5% CO_2 incubator. Following subculture, cells were incubated in DMEM containing dexamethasone, β-sodium phosphoglycerol and ascorbic acid 2-phosphate. Immunocytochemical staining and immunofluorescence staining were utilized to detect osteocalcin, osteopontin and type Ⅰ collagen expression in osteoblasts. Alkaline phosphatase staining and alizarin red staining were performed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: 1.077 g/mL Ficoll density gradient centrifugation was used to isolate karyocytes that were significant compared with Percoll solution. Obtained BMSCs had high purity, good growth and the mean doubling time was 24 hours. Following in vitro osteogenic incubation of dog BMSCs, osteocalcin, osteopontin and type Ⅰ collagen showed positive expression. Alkaline phosphatase staining demonstrated bluish-green cytoplasm. Alizarin red staining showed red nodes in extracellular matrix, and could differentiate into osteoblasts in vitro.

Objective To study the differences of coagulation indices on the first day of birth in newborns with different gestational ages.Method Premature infants born in our hospital between January 2014 and December 2015 were enrolled in this study as the observational group,and they were divided into early preterm group,moderate preterm group,and late preterm group according to their gestational ages.Healthy full-term infants born during the same period were selected as the control group by 3:1 The clinicaldata and coagulation indices of the infants and their mothers in each group were compared.Result There were 44,50,71,and 52 cases in the early preterm,moderate preterm,late preterm,and control group,respectively.The prothrombin time (PT),activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT),and thrombin time (TT) of the premature infants in the early preterm group,moderate preterm group,and late preterm group were all longer than those of the control group [PT:(16.1 ±4.3) s,(16.8 ±4.9) s,(15.8 ±4.8) s,vs.(13.0±1.3)s;APTT:(88.3±38.1) s,(93.5±37.7) s,(91.0±32.3) s,vs.(66.0±17.8) s;TT:(25.4 ±4.6) s,(25.1 ±5.5) s,(25.0 ±3.3) s,vs.(24.0 ±3.3) s;all P＜0.05].The fibrinogen level of the premature newborns in three groups were all lower than that of the full-term infants in the control group [(1.11 ± 0.46) g/L,(1.12 ± 0.44) g/L,(1.12 ± 0.45) g/L vs.(1.28 ± 0.37) g/L,P ＜ 0.05].The differences of all the indices among the three groups of premature infants were all not statistically significant (P ＞ 0.05).The comparison of the coagulation indices of the mothers of the newborns from all four groups showed no significant differences (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Compared with full-term infants,preterm infants showed significantly poorer coagulation function on the first day of birth.However,there were no significant differences in coagulation indices among preterm infants of different gestational ages.

Intraoperative cell salvage ( IOCS) was conducted during cesarean delivery from May 2011 to April 2016 in our hospital: when the volume of autologous blood collected from the surgical field≥800 ml during surgery and the parturients′hemoglobin≤100 g∕L after hemorrhage, the autologous blood was centrifuged, concentrated, washed and then filtered using a leucocyte depletion filter before reinfusion. IOCS was carried out in 1 085 cases during cesarean delivery within 5 yr. For the parturients who underwent IOCS, the percentage of patients who did not require transfusion of allogeneic red blood cells was 82.95%(900 cases), the percentage of patients who required plasma transfusion was 41.66% (452 cases), the percentage of patients who required platelet transfusion was 3.32% (36 cases), and no autologous blood transfusion?related adverse reactions were found during surgery and hospital stay. In conclusion, IOCS could be safely and effectively used for blood?saving effect in cesarean delivery.
