1.Detection of minimal residual disease in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia:methodologic advances and clinical significance
International Journal of Pediatrics 2010;37(2):135-138
Multiagent chemotherapy has significantly improved survival for childhood ALL.However,the relapse rate with current therapies remains at 20% to 30%.Numerous studies have proved that the minimal residual disease(MRD)is associated with relapse rate.The major methods for the detection of MRD include polymerase chain reaction(PCR)and flow cytometry(FCM).The measurement of MRD in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia offers the promise of individualized,risk-stratified treatment and the prediction for post-transplant outcome.
2.Practice and reflection on the construction of archive security system in research institutes
Chinese Journal of Medical Science Research Management 2013;26(6):415-416,426
Construction of security system plays an important role in the management of archive in research institute.With years' practice and exploration,we summarize our experiences in building up the security system of our institute here.This article involves two aspects of archive work,one is the conscious awareness of archive security and security system building.Suggestion on security cultural construction,digital file safety and data backup are also given.

Case based study emphasizes on the training of students' practical clinical ability. With the development of computer technology, picture archiving and communication system was widely applied, providing bases for case based study. According to the characteristics of radiology, appli-cation of case based study in medical imaging practice teaching was believed to stimulate students' learning interest, improve their analytical ability and thinking capacity, make them combine theory with practice better and develop their clinical thinking ability.

Giant cell tumor (GCT) is rare and it mainly occurred in male patients. A man of 65 years-old with progressive dyspnea has a 4 cm x 4 cm x 3 cm tumor mass under the right vocal fold originated from right-thyroid cartilage and the parapharyngeal space. The right false vocal was involved in the computed tomography (CT) imaging and laryngoscope. Microscopically, the tumors had an expansile, infiltrative growth and consisted of numerous multinucleated osteoclast-like giant cells within a cellular stroma composed of plump and oval mononuclear cells. The patient underwent partial laryngectomy and has been followed up for 6 months without recurrence or metastasis.

6.Expression and clinical significance of interleukin-17 and Th17 cells in the peripheral blood of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus
Chinese Journal of Rheumatology 2010;14(10):672-676
Objective To determine the protein and mRNA levels ofinterleukin-17 (IL-17) and the proportion of Th17 cells in the peripheral blood of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and their clinical significance is analyzed. Methods Twenty-five hospitalized SLE patients were recruited and twentytwo healthy volunteers were enrolled as normal controls. Plasma protein and mRNA of IL-17 in the peripheral blood were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and real time-PCR respectively. Flow cytometric assay was used to analyze the percentage of Th17 cells in SLE patients. The relationship between IL-17/Th17 cells and clinical or laboratory parameters of SLE patients was explored. Students' t-test and Spearman's correlation was used to evaluate the relationship between mRNA level and inflammatory parameters. Results The plasma concentration and mRNA level of IL-17 was significantly elevated in SLE patients as compared to the normal controls (P<0.05). The percentage of Th17 cells in patients with SLE was higher than that of normal controls and was significantly increased in more active SLE patients and SLE with nephritis than less active SLE and SLE without nephritis (P<0.05). Both plasma levels of IL-17 and the proportion of Th17 cells were positively correlated with SLEDAI (r=0.681, P<0.01; r=0.426, P=0.034). Conclusion Plasma IL-17 protein and mRNA expression level and the percentage of Th17 cells in SLE patients are all significantly elevated and the close relationship between IL-17/Th17 cells and disease activity suggests that IL-17/Th17 may play an important role in the pathogenesis of SLE.

Objective]To observe the clinical effect of Yinlai Decoction Addition and Subtraction on treating Pediatric Cold about lung-stomach heat retention syndrome.[Method]This study adopted the research design method of case series reports, continuously included 40 Pediatric Cold children with lung-stomach heat retention syndrome treated by Yinlai Decoction Addition and Subtraction from November 2011 to December 2012. Through clinical visiting, we could assess the treatment outcome of this time on the basis of evaluation standard. [Results]33 patients were cured, 5 patients turned better and 5 patients had no effect, the total effective rate was 95.00%. [Conclusion]Yinlai Decoction had clearing and dispersing function, it could treat lung and stomach simultaneously, therefore, it had obvious efficacy in Pediatric Cold about lung-stomach heat retention syndrome.
8.Effects of recombinant human endostatin on proliferation, cell cycle and expression of KDR/FIK-1 and VEGF in hemangioma endothelial cells in vitro
Chinese Journal of Biochemical Pharmaceutics 2015;(6):31-34
Objective To observe inhibitory effect of recombinant human endostatin on the proliferation of vascular tumor endothelial cells and to investigate its possible mechanism.Methods Hemangioma endothelial cells were cultured in vitro and different concentrations of endostatin on hemangioma endothelial cell proliferation inhibition were detected by MTT method.Effect of recombinant human endostatin on endothelial cell cycle was detected by flow cytometry.The expression of VEGF, KDR mRNA in hemangioma endothelial cell were detected by Real-time RT PCR. Results Recombinant human endostatin concentrations in 24 h, 48 h and 72 h after three period during which the hemangioma endothelial cells inhibited significantly( P <0.01 ) , and there was a clear dose dependence, IC50 was 355 μg/mL.Recombinant human vascular endostatin ( 250 μg/mL ) intervented for 24 hours, the proportion of cells in G0/G1 phase(94.23 ±1.66)%, compared with control group (90.63 ±1.14)%, had significantly difference (P<0.05).Compared with the control group, the difference of the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) was statistically significant (P<0.05) as well as Flk-1 (P <0.05).Conclusion Recombinant human endostatin does not only have inhibitory effect of hemangioma endothelial cell cycle, but also can inhibit the expression of VEGF and FLK-1.

In order to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of the subjects and the interests of the whole society , a relaxed and harmonious environment was created to ensure the normal medical research , clini-cal research trials which fit in trial of ethical review. The protocol assessment form and ICF assessment form to review are two cornerstones of protecting subjects. A good ICF assessment form is a necessary means to help improve the quality of the Ethics Committee for review .

Biomedical research involving human subjects must be approved by the ethical review. The method of improving ethics committee members of the examination quality is not only by the members themselves , but also a good plan of the work table, which is also a necessary means to improve the quality of the ethical review.
