Objective To investigate serum total prostate special antigen(tPSA),complexed prostate special antigen(cPSA)and cPSA/tPSA ratio(C/T) in the differential diagnosis of benign prostate hyperplasia(BPH)and prostate cancer(PCa).Methods A total of 184 serum samples from hospital outpatient and inpatient were collected from May 2009 to December 2015,and which were divided into three groups including other diseases 68 patients,benign prostate hyperplasia(BPH group)80 patients,prostate cancer (PCa group)36 patients.Chemiluminescence immunoassay was used to detect the concentration of tPSA and cPSA,and the C/T ratio were calculated in the study.Results The tPSA,ePSA levels and C/T ratio were significant different from patients with PCa,BPH and other diseases group(P＜0.01).Compared with BPH group(r=0.661),the tPSA and cPSA levels have a higher relativity in PCa group(cPSA=0.708 × tPSA-0.219,r=0.956).While when tPSA level ranges 4.0-10.0 ng/mL),no significant difference of tPSA,cPSA levels and C/T ratio were found in these 3 groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion Combined detection of serum tPSA,cPSA and C/T,making importance in the differential diagnosis of BPH and PCa.

The promyelocytic leukemia (PML) protein is an important part of the PML nuclear bodies (PML-NBs) structure.PML protein is crucial for the assembly of PML-NBs and recruits more than 30 different proteins, including DAXX, ATRX, and small ubiquitin-like molecules involving SUMO to the PML-NBs region.Increased evidence has emerged that a number of different proteins is involved in regulating PML activities by post-translational modifications, such as SUMO modification, ubiquitination and phosphorylation.Here, we review recent studies on the combination of PML and different proteins in the process of apoptosis, replicative senescence and DNA damage response.

Objective To evaluate the differences of α-fetoprotein (AFP), ffeeβ-human chorionic gnnadotropin (HCG) indexes in 3 foreign median databases for antepartum risk screening, and establish the median databases of normal pregnant women in Wenzhou for antepartum screening of AFP, free-β-HCG indexes through the suitable median computational models. Methods The levels of AFP and free β-HCG of 20054 normal pregnant women in Wenzhou were detected by time-resolved fluorometry. The data in this paper were compared with the data of 2T-risk ( 2T), Lifecycle-2. 2 (LC2.2 ) and Lifecycle -3.0 (LC3.0) by double-factor ANOVA. The differences between the data in the paper and the data from Shenyang and Ningbo were analyzed. The median database of Wenzhou pregnant women was established by the suitable regression model, with the stability of nonlinear regression models of the 3 software assessed by model correcting fitting, distribution mean of model fitting logarithmic and standard deviation. Results The levels of AFP and freeβ- hCG reported here were 10% and 16% higher than the data of 2T-risk, 15% and 20% higher than that of LC 2. 2, 6% and 17% higher than that of LC 3.0 respectively. The differences were statistically significant. ( FAFP = 161. 757 ,P < 0. 01 ; Ffree-β-HCG = 58. 261, P < 0.01 ). The levels of AFP and free β- hCG in Wenzhou were 2% higher and 3% lower than that of Shenyang, 1% and 2% higher than that of Ningbo. There was no statistical difference of AFP levels among Wenzhou , Shenyang and Ningbo( FAFP = 0. 174 ,P =0. 840) while the differences of free-β-hCG were statistically significant( F<,free-β-HCG> = 13.303 ,P < 0. 01 ). The differences of quadratic equation regression model, exponent quadratic function regression model and exponent quadru-function regression model of 2T, LC-2. 2 and LC-3.0 were not remarkable. The exponent quadru-function regression model was the best. Conclusions There are significant differences between the data from Wenzhou, Shenyang and Ningbo and the data of T-2 risk, LC-2. 2, LC -3.0. The discrepancy is due to the ethnic and different parameters of regression models. So the model parameters and the median databases are urgently required in China. The differences of large sample size of AFP from Wenzhow, Shengyang and Ningbo are not significant, while the differences of free-β- hCG from Wenzhow, Shengyang and Ningbo is remained because of its instability. The levels from Wenzhow and Ningbo are near. It is suggested that the laboratories with small sample size can establish their own laboratory parameters using the reference obtained from large sample size under the same experimental conditions. There are no significant differences of stability among regression computational models in the 3 software. The exponent quadru-function regression model can be used to establish the median databases for the screening with the similar data distribution in the paper.

Objective: To explore the clinical features and molecular basis for a child featuring infantile epilepsy and developmental disorders. Methods: Clinical data and peripheral blood samples of the child and his parents were collected. The coding regions of genes associated with nervous system development were subjected to target region capture sequencing. Results: The child developed generalized spasm at 3 months and was diagnosed with epilepsy at 6 months of age. He was treated with Depakin but was diagnosed with mental retardation and developmental retardation at 3 years of age. A novel heterozygous c. 3842T>G variant of the SYNE1 gene was detected. His father was found to carry the same variant and had a history of convulsions in infancy but with no mental or developmental anomalies. Conclusion A novel variant of SYNE1 gene was identified in this child, and the prognosis may be poor.

Objective To investigate current status of use of oral hypoglycemic drugs and insulin among adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in urban community of Beijing.Methods In total,3297 T2DM patients aged more than 20 years from 15 urban communities of Beijing were studied.Their body weight,height,fasting plasma glucose level and glycosylated hemoglobin Alc (HbAlc) were measured.A door-to-door questionnaire survey on use of oral hypoglycemic drugs and insulin was conducted for them.All the T2DM patients surveyed were divided into four groups based on their received intervention.Results ①Of 3279 T2DM patients,454 (13.8％) received lifestyle intervention,971 (29.5％) used only one oral hypoglycemic drug,1179 (35.7％) with combined oral hypoglycemic drugs,and 693(21.0％) with insulin.②There was significant difference in average HbAlc among the four groups of T2DM patients with lifestyle intervention,only one oral hypoglycemic drug,combined oral hypoglycemic drugs,and insulin,with HbAI c of (7.0 ± 1.9) ％,(7.1 ± 1.5) ％,(7.4 ± 1.5 ) ％,and (7.5 ± 1.5 ) ％for them,respectively ( F =15.1,P ＜ 0.01 ).Proportions of the T2DM patients with HbAlc equal to or higher than 7.0％ were 32.2％,39.4％,52.1％ and 59.5％ for the four groups,respectively ( x2 =117.7,P ＜ 0.01 ).③In the T2DM patients with lifestyle intervention,32.2％ (146/454) of them with HbA1 c equal to or higher than 7.0％ were untreated with any oral hypoglycemic drug.In those with only one oral hypoglycemic drug,39.4％ (383/971) of them with HbAlc equal to or higher than 7.0％ were not treated with combined oral hypoglycemic drugs and/or insulin.In those with combined oral hypoglycemic drugs,52.1％ (614/1079) of them with HbAlc equal to or higher than 7.0％ were not received combined insulin treatment.④ Fasting plasma glucose level,treatment strategies,postprandial 2-h blood glucose level and length of the illness were independent risk factors for HbAlc level equal to or higher than 7.0％,with odds ratio (OR) of 1.757,1.256,1.175 and 1.031,respectively.⑤ In 2843 T2DM patients with oral hypoglycemie drugs and/or insulin treatment,1494 (52.6％ ) received biguanides and 693 received (24.4％ )insulin,respectively.Conclusions More than half of adult patients with T2DM do not meet the target of glycemic control of HbAlc less than 7.0％ in urban communities of Beijing,due to not active use of oral hypoglycemic drugs,and not timely adoption of combined use of oral hypoglycemic drugs and insulin therapy.

Objective To study clinical characteristics of type 2 diabetic(T2D)patients with metabolic syndrome(MS)and its components in Beijing urban communities.Methods Totally,3295 T2D patients involved in a combined prospective diabetic management study from 15 urban communities in Beijing were classified as four groups, according to 2004 Chinese Diabetes Society's definition of MS, i. e, isolated T2D, T2D with one component of MS, T2D with two components of MS and T2D with three components of MS. Their clinical characteristics were analyzed. Results ( 1 ) Among 3295 T2D patients, 155 (4. 7% )were isolated T2D, 107 (32.6%) T2D with one component of MS, 1386 (42.1%) T2D with two components of MS and 679 (20.6%) T2D with three components of MS, with an overall 62.7% (2065/3295) of T2D patients complicated with MS. (2) In these T2D patients, the more components of MS they had, the higher body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, waist to hip circumference ratio (WHR),systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), fasting serum levels of insulin and triglyceride (TG) and the lower level of high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL) were presented (P <0. 01 ). (3) Percentage of isolated T2D in women increased from 49. 0% (76/155) to 61.9% (420/679)of those with three components of MS ( P < 0 01 ), with increasing of components of MS. (4) Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that BMI, history of hypertension, decreased HDL, increased TG,increased blood pressure, all were risk factors for T2D patients complicated with MS. Conclusions Among T2D patients in urban communities of Beijing, 95.3% (3140/3295) of them complicated with one or more components of MS, and 61.9% (420/679) of them complicated with MS. So, community diabetic management must be implemented in an all-round way, including control of blood pressure, blood lipids,body weight and so on, in addition to control of blood sugar.
