Objective To carry out a systematic evaluation for the diagnostic accuracy of Des-γ-carboxy-prothrombin(DCP) in primary hepatocellular cancer(PHC) by Meta-analysis.Methods The published international and domestic studies on DCP in the diagnosis of PHC were searched in multiple databases from its inception until December 2016.A total of seventeen studies were finally selected,among which 1 970 cases of PHC group and 2 588 cases of control group were included.The control group was composed of chronic hepatitis,cirrhosis,tumors in other systems and healthy subjects with physical examination.A meta-analysis was performed using Stata 12.0.Results The overall pooled results of the analysis and the 95％ confidence intervals were as follows:the sensitivity(SEN) was 0.79 (0.74 to 0.83),the specificity (SPE) was 0.90 (0.87 to 0.93),the positive likelihood ratio(PLR) was 8.1 (5.8 to 11.1),the negative likelihood ratio(NLR) was 0.24(0.19 to 0.29),the diagnostic odds ratio(DOR) was 34(21 to 55) and the area under the summary receiver operator characteristic curve (SROC) was 0.91 (0.89 to 0.93).The sensitivity combined the detections of AFP and DCP in the diagnosis of PHC was 0.90 with 0.94 of AUCROC and 56 of DOR.Conclusion The serum DCP may exhibit a relatively higher diagnostic specificity for PHC.The combined detections of AFP and DCP could improve the sensitivity and diagnostic accuracy.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of microwave polymerization and water-bath heat polymerization on accuracy and flexural strength of denture base resin. METHODS: Ten maxillary complete dentures were prepared and divided into microwave polymerization and water-bath heat polymerization groups according to random number table, with 5 dentures in each group. In the microwave polymerization group, the dentures were heated for 9 minutes with 40% firepower, natural cooled, the pressure of flasking at 4.5 kg/mm~2. In the water-bath heat polymerization group, the temperature increased from room to 70℃, sustained for 1.5 hours, then rise to 100℃ for 0.5 hour. The dentures were maintained at 25℃ thermostatic water bath for a week. The denture base, as well as standard cast was cut down at posterior border of the second molar. Dimensional accuracy between the posterior border of upper complete denture and standardized cast at five different positions was measured by digital microscope. Specimens with 64 mm× 10 mm×2.5 mm were made for measuring flexural strength.RESULTS: ①The posterior border gaps between the upper complete denture and standardized cast was (141±78) urn and (147±74) μm cured by microwave polymerization and water-bath heat polymerization, which has no statistical difference. The flexural strength of denture base resin cured by the microwave polymerization and water-bath heat polymerization was (81.60±14.04) MPa and (84.24±17.65) MPa, and there was no statistical difference (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION: There is no significantly difference in the accuracy and flexural strength cured by microwave polymerization and by water-bath heat polymerization, but the microwave polymerization takes shorter time than that by water-bath heat polymerization.

Cyclophosphamide (CPA) is the most common alkylating antineoplastic agent, as well as a strong immunosuppressant that is frequently applied to autoimmune diseases and organ transplantation. It is metabolized by cytochrome P450 oxidases (CYPs) to its active metabolite which played a critical role in therapy. CPA has serious and even fatal side effects, and its efficacy and adverse reactions are significantly varied among individuals. In this review, the association of the genetic polymorphisms in the metabolic enzymes and transporters involved in the disposition of CPA with the efficacy and adverse effects of CPA were summarized, thereby providing fundamental reference for further pharmacogenomic study of CPA.

Objective To evaluate the clinical diagnostic value of pelvic floor sEMG in pelvic floor dyssynergia (PFD) by using receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve). Methods The pelvic floor sEMG of 90 patients with PFD and 101normal controls were determined by the Glazer protocol.Parameters including amplitude (AVG),coefficient of variance (CV),onset time and median frequency (MF),and the ROC curve werealso investigated. Results Compared to the control group,the PFD group had a higher AVG of pre-baseline (P < 0.05), a lower AVG during Flick and Tonic steps(P < 0.05), and ahigher CV duringTonic and Endurance steps(P < 0.05).The area under curve(AUC) of CV duringthe tonic step was 0.883 withthe best cut-off of 0.355, and with sensitivity of 88.4%and the specificity of 71.1%, respectively; The AUC of CV duringEndurance step was 0.825 withthe best cut-off of 0.305, and with the sensitivity of 84.9%and the specificity of 67.8% , respectively. Conclusion The CVs of the tonic and the endrnace phases can be used as valuable clinical values in diagnosis of PFD.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of color Doppler flow imaging (CDFI) for evaluating transplant renal artery stenosis (TRAS).Methods Clinical and ultrasonographic data of 216 kidney transplant recipients were collected by follow-up monitoring from September 2015 to July 2016.CDFI indexes included the peak systolic velocity (PSV) in the renal artery and resistant index (RI).Renal artery PSV and RI were measured.All suspected TRAS patients accepted transplant renal artery angiography (DSA).Results Fourteen patients with suspected TRAS accepted DSA,of which 12 patients were confirmed.The diagnostic accuracy of CDFI was 85.7％.When the POST-PSV ratio＞ 1 0,the sensitivity and specificity of diagnosis of TRAS were 91 ％ and 95 ％,respectively.CDFI indexes remarkably changed after the TRAS patients had undergone renal artery dilatation or stent implantation.PSV of the main renal artery and the POST-PSV ratio decreased significantly,and the PSV of interlobar arteries increased.Conclusions CDFI is a reliable first choice for screening transplant renal artery stenosis.The POST-PSV ratio has relatively higher sensitivity and specificity in the diagnosis of TRAS.

BACKGROUND:At present, a great quantity of research has shown the effectiveness of traditional Chinese medicine and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s for vascular restenosis. However, studies concerning their combined application to restenosis after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty with diabetes mel itus are presently lacking.
OBJECTIVE:To observe the effects of combined application of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s and benefiting-Qi nourishing-Yin and dissolving-congestion prescription on restenosis after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty in dogs with diabetes mel itus.
METHODS:A dog model of vascular restenosis with diabetes mel itus was established by bal oon injury of femoral artery and intravenous injection of al oxan. After successful model induction, 22 dog models were randomly divided into three groups:model group (n=6), treatment with Chinese medicine (n=8), and combined treatment with bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s and Chinese medicine (n=8). Serum vascular endothelial growth factor levels were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay preoperatively and at 1, 2, 4 and 8 weeks postoperation. Samples of vessels were taken to conduct pathomorphological observation and quantitative analysis of proliferation degree. Tissues, including heart, liver, kidney and pancreatic gland, were col ected to evaluate the safety of stem cel transplantation using hematoxylin-eosin staining at 8 weeks postoperation.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Serum vascular endothelial growth factor levels began to increase at 1 week postoperation in the Chinese medicine group and combined treatment group, at 4 weeks postoperation in the model group compared with preoperation (P<0.05). At al time points, serum vascular endothelial growth factor levels were highest in the combined treatment group, but lowest in the model group (P<0.05). Quantitative analysis of vascular proliferation demonstrated that at 8 weeks postoperation, new intimal area, new intimal/medial areas and stenosis rate were highest in the model group, but lowest in the combined treatment group at 8 weeks postoperation (P<0.05). Safety assessment of stem cel transplantation showed morphological structures of the heart, liver, kidneys and pancreas were normal, no necrosis. In a word, the effects of the combined application of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s and benefiting-Qi nourishing-Yin and dissolving-congestion prescription were much pronounced in preventing restenosis after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty in dogs with diabetes mel itus rather than single therapy of Chinese medicine. It is a safe and effective treatment to prevent vascular restenosis after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty in dogs with diabetes mel itus.
