Objective To investigate the clinical value of surem eystatin C and urinary transforming growth factorβ1(TGF-β1)in patients with severe eclampsism.Methods Serum cystatin C and urinary transforming growth factorβ1 were examined in 35 severe eclampsism women(experiment group,n=35)and normal late pregnant women(control group,n=35).Results The levels of serum cystatin C and urinary transforming growth factorβ1 were both significantly increased in experiment group than those in control group(both P<0.01).The serum level of cystatin C was positively correlative with urinary TGF-β1 level in experiment group(r=0.581,P<0.05).Conclusion The detection of serum cystatin C and urinary transforming growth factorβ1 is useful to assess renal function lesion in patients with severe eclampsism,which contributes to the diagnosis and treatment of severe eclampsism.

Psychotherapy is a kind of medical treatments based on interpersonal interaction that is highly context-dependent.While psychotherapy is an important treatment in clinical work and its effectness has been confirmed with wide practical application,its adverse effects has received little attention.This article will review the literaturesand discuss the possible side effects and relatedfactors of psychotherapy.

Thrombolysis is still an important treatment modality in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) in a hospital without percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) facility. However, the optimal treatment after thrombolysis is still unclear. Conservative treatment after thrombolysis was recommended in the past. "Guidelines for percutaneous coronary intervention (2009)" also suggested that the condition of STEMI patients should be evaluated to determine whether the patient should be transferred to a hospital with PCI facility. But this suggestion lacksed evidence-based support. In recent years, several clinical trials suggested that immediate transfer to the nearest interventional centre for PCI was plausible regardless of success or failure in thrombolysis in local hospital, and this might reduce the incidence of cardiovascular events in patients with STEMI.

Objective To investigate mRNA expression levels of cathepsin B,cathepsin L and uPA in non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) samples,and analyze the relationship between three genes and clinicopathological factors.Methods Real-time fluorescence quantitative RT-PCR was used to quantify the relative expression levels of cathepsin B,cathepsin L and uPA mRNA in 39 NHL patients without chemotherapy or radiotherapy and 15 patients with lymph node reactive hyperplasia.Relationship between their expression and clinico-pathological factors was analyzed.Results mRNA expression levels of cathepsin B,cathepsin L and uPA in NHL group were significantly higher than those in the control group (0.403 vs 0.128,0.209 vs 0.057,0.459 vs 0.031,all P ＜ 0.05).The mRNA expression levels of cathepsin B,cathepsin L and uPA were correlated with each other in NHL.The mRNA expression levels of cathepsin B,cathepsin L and uPA in advanced staged NHL were markedly higher than those in early staged NHL (0.453 vs 0.341,0.204 vs 0.085,0.372 vs 0.196,all P ＜ 0.05).mRNA levels of cathepsin B,cathepsin L and uPA were higher in NHL patients sensitive to chemotherapy than in those resistant to chemotherapy(0.401 vs 0.556,0.085 vs 0.205,0.316 vs 0.499,all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The high expression of cathepsin B,cathepsin L and uPA could be detected in NHL,and their expression has a close relationship with the biological behavior characters of NHL.The dynamic examination of cathepsin B,cathepsin L and uPA may be used as clinical auxiliary diagnosis and prognosis of NHL.

Venetoclax is an important breakthrough in the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in recent years. A chemo-free treatment of inducing apoptosis drugs combined with hypomethylating agents is used in the management of AML, which brings hope of long-term survival for the elderly patients or patients who cannot tolerate intensive chemotherapy. However, there are still some patients who are resistant to venetoclax-based regimens. This article introduces the new progress of venetoclax in the treatment of AML in combination with reports at the 62nd American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting.

Heart disease is the major disease that threaten human health. ECG is an important tool for the diagnosis of cardiac disease. As traditional ECG measurement devices have many disadvantages, a non-contact ECG measurement system was designed. With the non-contact electrode based on capacitive coupling, the signals were collected and then they were amplified and filtered. The conditioned analog signal was converted to digital data which was sent to the mobile terminal through bluetooth. Finally, the ECG data was analyzed to extract the key ECG parameters. The results showed that the precise ECG signals can be got with the non-contact electrode and the key ECG parameters can be acquired accurately.

Objective:To study whether caspase-6 was activated during resveratrol(Res)- induced apoptosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells CNE-2Z. Methods:The cleavage of pro-caspase-6 was analyzed by Western-blot. TTie changes of caspase-6 mKNA was detected by semi-quantitative RT-PCR. The changes of caspase-6 activity was determined by colorimetric assay. Results: After CNE-2Z cells were treated with 0 (control), 25, 50, 100, 200 pmol/L Res for 24 h, respectively, the expression of pro-caspase-6 was decreased with concentration increasing. Caspase-6 active fragment P20(20 kD) appeared at 100 fjtmol/L and was increased at 200 (junol/L.The expression of caspase-6 mR-NA was increased in a concentration-dependent manner ( P

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of enzymatically modified low density lipoprotein(E-LDL) on differation and maturation of human dendritic cells(DC) in peripheral blood and the effect of diltiazem on it.METHODS: Human monocytes were isolated by using gradient centrifugation method and cultured in DC Cellgro medium containing rhGM-CSF and rhIL-4 for 5 days,then DC was then obtained.DC were treated with E-LDL or E-LDL plus diltiazem for 48 hours,the morphological changes were observed under the microscope,and the FACS was used to investigate the expression of DC(CD1a,CD80,CD86 and HLA-DR).PBS group was set up for comparison.RESULTS: The morphological changes were nor observed.The expressions of CD1a,CD80,CD86 and HLA-DR in each groups were significant different(P

The activities of acid phosphatase and ?-1,4 glucosidase and the concentration of citric acid in the semen of 51 cases of chronic prostatitis were determined.The mean value was 694.33?346.61 Bodansky units for acid phosphatase,43.84?24.70mIU/ml for ?-1,4 glucosidase,and 3.26 ?2.37 mg/ml for citric acid.The activity of acid phospohatase and the concentration of citric acid were significantly lower in the patients with chronic prostatitis than in the normal subjicts while the activity of ?-1,4 glucosidase showed little changes.The findings suggest that the functions of the prostate was severely imparired and that of the epididymis remained normal in patients with chronic prostatitis.

On the model of isoprenaline (ISO)-perinjured rat heart, the protctive effect of ischemic preconditioning (IPC) on ischemia reperfusion (I/R) damage was observed.It was found that compared with alone I/R group,IPC ameliorated I/R-induced reduced reduction of coronary blood flow (CBF) (8. 8 + 0. 6 vs 6. 6 + 0. 4mL/min,P
