Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA),the most common type of sleep disordered breathing was closely associated with the occurrence of ischemic stroke.It has been demonstrated that OSA is an independent risk factor for ischemic stroke.Its pathogenic mechanism includes atherosclerosis,coagulation abnormalities and cerebral hemodynamic changes caused by long-term periodic hypoxia hypoxemia and hypercapnia.The prognosis of ischemic stroke patients with OSA is poor.Therefore,it needs to be treated early to avoid further damage to brain tissue and reduce the mortality.

Objective To observe the effects of cigarette smoke extract (CSE) on the proliferation and secretion of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in human lung fibroblasts (HLFs) induced by transforming growth faetor-β1(TGF-β1).Methods Cultured HLFs were divided into a normal group and a model group induced by TGF-β1 (5 ng/mL),then intervened with CSE at different concentrations (0% ,2.5% ,5%, 10%, respectively).Brdu ELISA assay was used to detect cell proliferation.H2O2release from cultured cells was assayed using a fluorimetric method.Cellular localization of H2O2 and expression of α-SMA were performed using a fluorescent-labeling strategy.Results TGF-β1 stimulated group showed positive expression of α-SMA, implying TGF-β1 had induced fibroblasts to differentiate into myofibroblasts.In TGF-β1 stimulated group,2.5% and 5% CSE promoted cell proliferation (P < 0.01 or 0.05), while 10% CSE inhibited cell proliferation (P < 0.01).In the normal group, both low and high concentration of CSE inhibited cell proliferation (P < 0.01 or P < 0.05), and the inhibition effect was dose-dependent.HLF induced by TGF-β1 generated low constitutive levels of extracellular H2O2 that was markedly enhanced by CSE treatment (P < 0.01).Pretreatment with DPI, an inhibitor of NADPH oxidase, abolished secretion of H2O2.Cellular localization of H2O2 by a fluorescent-labeling strategy demonstrated that extracellular secretion of H2O2 is specific to the myofibroblast.Conclusions Low concentration of CSE can promote myofibroblast proliferation, and markedly increase extracellular secretion of H2O2.CSE possibly take part in the development and progress of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis by increasing oxidative stress.

Objective To explore the expressions of livin and Smac in condyloma acuminatum (CA) tissue and their roles. Methods The expressions of Livin and Smac were analyzed by immunocytochemical staining with streptavidin-peroxidase (SP) in tissue specimens from the lesions of 58 patients with CA and foreskin of 20 normal human controls. Results The detection rates of Livin and Smac were 81.03% (47/58) and 77.59% (45/58) in CA lesions, respectively, compared to 25.00% (5/20) and 35.00% (7/20) in the controls, respectively. The expressions of Livin and Smac varied from positive (++) to strongly positive (+++) in CA lesions, and from negative (-) to positive (++) in the controls (both P< 0.05). A positive correlation was found between the expression of Livin and Smac in CA lesions (r = 0.373, P < 0.01). Conclusion There is an over- expression of Livin and Smac in CA tissue, which may be involved in the occurrence and development of CA.

This paper introduced the concept of public spirit into public health emergencies from the field of public administration,and defined the content of public spirit in public health emergencies.The researchers gave a discussion on the specific performances of the four features of public spirit in public health emergencies,including public nature,bottom line,political nature and radioactive nature.The paper summarized the significance of public spirit in dealing with public health emergencies,and interpreted the connotation of public spirit of governments and citizens.

In order to sum up the antineoplasmic active components of Holothuria, we studied the literatures in recent years. The results showed that Holothuria contained a variety of anti-tumor active ingredient, such as Holothurian Glycosaminoglycan and Holothurin. These anti-tumor active components played important roles in different stages of tumor developmment, progression and metastasis. The discovery of new anti-tumor active ingredients may be helpful for the application of Holothuria in clinical tumor treatment.

[Objective] To establish a method for the determination of geniposide in Jinzhi Jieyin Gargle by RP- HPLC. [ Methods ] SupelcosilTM LC - 18 (150 mm ?4.6 mm, 5?m) was used as the analytical column, methanol - water -phosphoric acid (25∶75∶0.12 ) as mobile phase and the detection wave - length at 240 run. [Results] Within the range of 0.175-1.84?g, geniposide showed a good linearity ( r = 0.9999 ). The average recovery was 99.93%(n=5, RSD = 1.16%). [Conclusion] This method can be used for the quality control of Jinzhi Jieyin Gargle.

Tumor cells have different physiological and biochemical features as compared to normal cells;abnormal expressi of certain genes is also found in tumor cells.Over-expression of genes provide targets for targeted-administration of drugs,which can avoid damage to normal cells during treatment of tumors.Fatty acid synthase(FAS)and human epidermal growth factor receptor-2(HER2)are both over-expressed in some tumor cells.Herceptin,an HER2-targeted agent,has been used to treat HER2-positive breast cancer patients worldwide and has obtained satisfactory outcome.Cerulomycin,an agent-targeting FAS,is now in FDA clinical trial.Recent researches have shown that FAS and HER2 are simultaneously over-expressed in some tumors,such as breast cancer cells and ovarian cancer cells;and there is a connection between their signal pathways and a synergistic effect between them.This paper reviews the relationship between FAS and HER2 in tumor cells.

Objective To study the relationship between cognitive dysfunction and depression and event-related potential(ERP) in patients with silent brain infarction(SBI).Methods 68 SBI patients were tested by the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale for Depression(HAMD),scale of mini mental state examination(MMSE)and ERP;and the results were compared with those in 55 patients without cerebral infarction(control group).Results In the SBI group,the HAMD score was ≥17 in 31(45.6%)cases(depression subgroup)and

Chronic pancreatitis (CP) with mass and pancreatic cancer are difficult to identify from the Clinical performance. Imaging methods in the diagnosis of the CP with mass play an important role, which is very helpful for the indications for surgery of the hands, of resectable pancreatic head tumor, and surgical options, as well as estimates of the difficulty of the surgery. At present, we have taken the CP with mass as a precancerous lesion of pancreatic cancer. Surgical strategy in CP with mass has been directed at the pancreatic head with a variety of tactics including pancreatoduodenectomy ( Whipple procedure with or without pylorus preservation) and partial resection of the pancreatic duct drainage( Frey operation, Beger operation ). Once the diagnosis of the CP with mass was confirmed surgical treatment should be performed by pancreatoduodenectomy, which by not only the pancreatic head mass was resected, the bile ducts and pancreatic ducts and obstruction of the duodenum were lifted, but also the potential causes of pancreatic cancer were ruled out. Pancreatoduodenectomy has great risk for the big mass of pancreatic head, but the partial head resection can be accomplished with relative safety.
