With the development of science and technology,many scientific achievements were gained,while a lot of problems emerged at the same time,for example,the expansion of gap between basic research and clinical research,the difficulty of clinical application of basic research achievement,all these promote the development of translational medicine.The appearance of translational research not only promote the formation of medical development strategy at the national level and the development of multiple disciplines,but also push the formation of the medical scientific research institutions on translational research and speed up the transformation of important achievements.Translational medicine in China is in the initial stage,and the top design and layout need to be increased through making overall coordinate and support,estabilishing a perfect training talent and the establishment of uniformed information platform,and so on.

With the development of translational research,many research institutes on translational research appeare around the world.These research institutes should focus on core problem,enhance the construction of information platform and training talent,evaluate translational projects and establish supporting system.Compared with foreign research institutes on translational medicine,the construction of Chinese research institute on translational research is in the initial stage,and many aspects need to improve.According to the current situation in China,we put forward that the research institutes on translational research in China should be settled in medical universities and promote the development of translational research by enhancing the training talents,developing the innovation of system,strengthening financing ability.

Disease bio-banks are an important strategic resource for medicine development. Such a bank with complete information and high information sharing enhances the competitiveness of medicine and promote the development of translational medicine. The present development of such banks is found with such setbacks as weak government leadership and standardization, as well as lack of a sharing mechanism. Therefore medical institutions should strengthen their standardization and informationization of disease bio-banks, which deserve sufficient government policy support and guidance. These efforts will help preserve our rich clinical resources, in addition to their integration and sharing for medicine advancement.

This report presented a case of disseminated infection with nocardia in lupus erythematosus (SLE) and reviewed the current literature. Nocardiosis was a rare, sometimes life-threatening opportunistic infection in SLE patients. The isolation and identification of pathogen was fundamental for the diagnosis of nocardiosis. Sulfonamides were traditionally the agent of choice for treatment of nocardiosis; while it must be given for several months even more than one year, particularly in patients with suppressed immune function. Issues regarding the drug resistance and the toxicity of sulfonamides in long-term therapy needed to be considered. Linezolid could be an effective agent for the treatment of nocardiosis, whether it could reduce the treatment course need to be further studied.

ObjectiveTo investigate the association between serum level of osteopotin(OPN) and disease activity of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients, and explore the importance of OPN in the pathogenesis of interstitial lung disease (ILD) in RA. MethodsSixty-five RA patients and 20 healthy controls were pros-pectively enrolled. RA patients were divided into active group(n=43) and inactive group(n=22), and ILD groups (n=24) and non-ILD group (n=41). Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the serum levels of OPN in patients with RA and healthy controls, and the relationship between OPN and other clinical and laboratory findings were analyzed.Results① Serum OPN tended to be significantly higher in RA patients (median, 18.0 ng/ml) than in the healthy controls (median, 14.3 ng/ml), P<0.01; ②The serum level of OPN in RA patients showed a significant positive correlation with the course of disease, numbers of tender joints , ESR and CRP, but no positive relationship was found in number of swollen joints; ③ The serum level of OPN was significantly higher in RA-ILD patients(median, 20.0 ng/ml) than that in non-lLD (median, 17.0 ng/ml, P<0.05). And there was remarkable negative correlation between the concentration of serum OPN and the value of PaO2, but no association was found with pulmonary function %VC and %DLCO. ④ Compared with the non-ILD group, the ILD group had more active disease in terms of tender joint counts and swollen joint counts, ESR, CRP(P<0.01) and the serum titer of RF-IgM,(P<0.05). ConclusionOPN plays a role in the pathogenesis of RA and is related to the disease activity. It may serve as an active disease inflammatory marker of RA . OPN may be involved in the pathogenesis of RA related ILD and is associated with the severity of pulmonary damage.

Objective To examine the effects of oxidative stress induced damage to the Prestin expression in HEI-OC1 cells,and to study the mechanism of sensory deafness.Methods We used different concentrations (50μM,100μM,200μM)of hydrogen peroxide canister to cultivate HEI-OC1 cells,and to detect the activity of su-peroxide dismutase(SOD).The quantitative real-time PCR and immunofluorescence were used to detect the prestin expression of mRNA.Results The SOD activity decreased in the HEI-OC1 cells damaged by oxidative stress.The high concentration of the infected group decreased more significantly(F= 9926.293,P<0.01).The expressions of Prestin mRNA and Prestin protein were decreased obviously in the HEI-OC1 cells.The high concentration of in-fected group decreased more significantly (F= 4065.046and7657.217,P<0.01).Conclusion Oxidative stress in-ducing damage inhibits the expression of prestin.Prestin protein may be used as a molecular marker of sensory deafness.

Objective To explore the clinical application value of plasma N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) in diagnosis and treatment of symptomatic patent ductus arteriosus (sPDA) in preterm infants. Methods A total of 107 preterm infants with gestational age of 28-32 weeks and birth weight less than 1500 g who were admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit from October 2013 to September 2014 were recruited. Plasma NT-proBNP were on 4th and 7th day after birth. The echocardiography examination was performed within 30 minutes after the blood was drawn. According to the echocardiography examination on 4th day after birth, the infants were divided into the patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) group (n?=?39) and the control group (n?=?68). According to whether there were signiifcant hemodynamics changes of ultrasonography and clinical symptoms, the PDA group were classiifed into the sPDA group (n?=?20) and the asymptomatic PDA group (asPDA, n?=?19). Then according to whether ibuprofen was taken, the sPDA group was further divided into treatment group (n?=?13) and non-treatment group (n?=?7). Results On the 4th day after birth, the level of plasma NT-proBNP in the sPDA group was signiifcantly higher than that in asPDA group, and the level of plasma NT-proBNP in asPDA group was signiifcantly higher than that in the control group (P??0.05). In the treatment group, the level of plasma NT-proBNP on the 7th day after birth was signiifcantly lower than that on the 4th day after birth (P??0.05). In PDA group, the level of plasma NT-proBNP on the 4th day after birth was positively correlated with ductus arteriosus (DA) diameter, ratio of the left atrium to aortic root diameter (LA/AO ratio) and transductal diameter-to-left pulmonary artery ratio (TDD/LPA) (r?=?0.498-0.670, respectively). The area under receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve for prediction of sPDA by the plasma NT proBNP on the 4th day after birth was 0.969 (95%CI:0.938-1.000). When the NT-proBNP was 13964 pg/ml on the 4th day after birth, the sensitivity for diagnosis sPDA was 95%, the speciifcity was 95.4%. Conclusions The level of plasma NT-proBNP is signiifcantly higher in preterm infants with sPDA and is decreased after treatment. Plasma NT-proBNP on the 4th day after birth is a sensitive marker for predicting sPDA. Dynamic monitoring of plasma NT-proBNP has important clinical value in selection of the treatment strategy in preterm infants with PDA.
