Objective To observe the hemodynamic change of small artery in patients with type 2 diabetes. Methods We measured peak systolic velocity (PSV), end-diastolic velocity (EDV), pulse index (PI), resistance index (RI) of ocular artery (OA), central retinal artery (CRA), finger artery, dorsal pedis artery and interlobar artery of patients with early-stage type 2 diabetes. Results The decrease in PSV and EDV values occurred early in CRA of type 2 diabetics while RI and PI values increased. Conclusion The hemodynamic change of CRA occurs earliest among general small arteries of type 2 diabetic patients.

Objective:To establish the median databases of serum markers for Down's syndrome screening during the second trimester of pregnancy women in the north-central area of Jiangxi Province.Methods:Time-resolved fluorometry was used to detect the serum contents of AFP free β-hCG and uE3 in 57 548 pregnant women during 15-20 gestational weeks.Risk evaluation was conducted by LifeCycle 4.0.SAS 9.2 software was used to establish a model of the median fitted equation.The newly constructed median system was used to reassess the risk of Down's syndrome development in pregnant women.Results:The medianand built in medianof north-central region in Jiangxi Province are significantly different (Z=2.201,P=0.028).The relationship between the median of the triple index and the gestational age was analyzed by the weight regression model.The relationship between the MoM value and the weight was used to calculate the reciprocal model.The median of the new system was more efficiency than the built in median.In the median of the new system than the reference,the detection rate improved from 62.75% to 72.55%,false positive rate reduced by 5.84% to 4.94%.Conclusion:The newly constructed median system is suitable for Down's syndrome screening in the north-central region of Jiangxi Province.

AIM: To investigate effects of thrombopoietin(TPO) and TPOⅡ on human platelet activation in vitro. METHODS:Human platelets were incubated in the phosphate-buffered saline containing rhTPO or TPOⅡ at the concentration of 100 ?g/L for five minutes. In order to determine the rate of platelet activation. The CD62P and CD41 expressions on platelets were analysed by flow cytometry using fluorescence labelled monoclonal antibody to CD62P and CD41. RESULTS: The results demonstrated that expression of CD62P on platelets which were incubated with rhTPO or TPOⅡ didn't increase compared with that of contrast group. CONCLUSION: Both rhTPO and TPOⅡdidn't cause the disorder of platelet activation.

Objective To investigate the association and difference between patent foramen ovale(PFO), atrial septal aneurysm(ASA), atrial septal defect(ASD) in normal controls and cryptogenic ischemic stroke(CS) in youth diagnosed by double source CT.Methods A total of 168 CS patients and 180 controls matched age and gender were included in the present study.The two groups were diagnosed by double source CT and clinical materials.The incident rate of PFO, ASA, ASD, the degrees of PFO, ASD,the lengths of PFO and difference between CS in two groups were analysed.Results The incident rates of PFO, ASA, ASD were 40.6%,10.7%,6.5% and 15.6%,3.3%,2.2% in CS groups and controls respectively(P<0.001).The incident rates of PFO merged ASA and ASA merged ASD were 6.0%,3.0% and 0%,0% respectively between two groups(P<0.001).The diameters of PFO, ASD were (1.71±0.62) mm,(3.42±0.72) mm and (0.85±0.51) mm,(2.45±0.42) mm in two groups respectively(P<0.001).The lengths of PFO were (14.6±3.8) mm and (8.2±2.3) mm in two groups(P<0.001).The correlations between stroke in two groups were no difference(P>0.001).Conclusion PFO,ASA and ASD are important to CS.While PFO,ASA and ASD can accurately be diagnosed by double source CT.

OBJECTIVE: To study the mechanism of tumor necrosis factor( TNF)-α and its receptor( TNFR) signal transduction pathways in regulating cell apoptosis of alveolar macrophage( AM) in coal workers' pneumoconiosis( CWP).METHODS: Twenty-four coal workers with pneumoconiosis at stage Ⅰ were selected as CWP group and four observation subjects exposed to coal were chosen as observation group by using simple random sampling method. The bronchoalveolar lavage fluids of whole-lung lavage of two groups were collected. AMs were separated and purified. Then they were divided into 6 groups: a control group,a superoxide dismutase( SOD) group,a TNF/TNFR group,an anti-TNF-α antibody group,a Caspase-8 suppression group and a nuclear factor-κB( NF-κB) suppression group. The AMs of 6 groups with corresponding treatment were cultivated. After 24 hours,the cells were harvested and proteins extracted. The relative expression of TNF-α,TNFR1,TNFR2,Caspase-8,Caspase-3,NF-κB P50 and NF-κB P65 protein was detected by Western blotting. RESULTS: The protein relative expression of TNF-α,TNFR2,Caspase-8,Caspase-3,NF-κB P50 and NF-κB P65 in CWP group was significantly higher than those in the observation group( P < 0. 05). The protein relative expression of TNF-α,TNFR1,Caspase-8,Caspase-3 and NF-κB P50 in the TNF/TNFR group and the anti-TNF-αantibody group was lower than that of the control group( P < 0. 05). The above indexes in the anti-TNF-α antibody group were lower than that of the NF-κB suppression group( P < 0. 05). The protein relative expression of TNFR1,Caspase-8and Caspase-3 in the TNF/TNFR group was higher than that of the SOD group and the Caspase-8 suppression group( P <0. 05). The protein relative expression of TNFR1,Caspase-8 and NF-κB P50 in the TNF/TNFR group was lower than that of the NF-κB suppression group( P < 0. 05). Among the CWP patients,the relative expression of TNFR2 and NF-κB P65 in the TNF/TNFR group was lower than that of the control group( P < 0. 05),and higher than that of the SOD group( P <0. 05). CONCLUSION: AM apoptosis mediated by TNF-α/TNFR/NF-κB signal transduction pathway plays an important role in the occurrence and development of CWP. The TNF-α/TNFR/NF-κB signal transduction pathways inhibited or blocked at different stages can affect the expression of proteins related to AM apoptosis.
