OBJECTIVE:Studies have confirmed that basic fibroblast growth factor stimulating periodontal ligament cells can promote the proliferation of human periodontal ligament cells.so as to facilitate the reconstruction of lost periodontal tissues.By use of different concentrations of basic fibroblast growth factor,the in vitro cultured normal human periodontal ligament cells were stimulated to observe the decorin gene expression in the periodontal ligament cells.METHODS:The periodontal ligament cells were isolated and cultured using trypsin digestion method.The third generation of cells at logarithmic growth phase were preserved in DMEM containing 10% DMSO and 20% FBS frozen crvopreservation fluid,then moved into liquid nitrogen preservation at the second day Immunohistochemistry was used to identify anti-vimentin and cytokeratin staining The sixth generation of human periodontal ligament cells were divided into experimental group and control group.The experimental group was cultured in DMEM culture medium containing basic fibroblast growth factor at the concentration of 0.1,1,10 μg/L under standard conditions for 24 hours;control group was cultured with DMEM culture medium under standard conditions for 24 hours.The intracellular decorin gene expression was determined using RT-PCR.RESULTS:By microscopic observation,the cells in the control group had no significant changes,and cells proliferated in the experimental group,before stimulation the cells at the bottom of the bottle became denser than those in sparse regions.Adding basic fibroblast growth factor into periodontal ligament cells,could significantly decrease the mRNA expression of decorin,along with the increase of basic fibroblast growth factor concentration,the inhibition effect gradually weakened and became the strongest in the 0.1 μg/L but the weakest at 10 μg/L.CONCLUSION:The basic fibroblast growth factor stimulation can promote the proliferation of periodontal ligament cells and inhibit the synthesis of decorin in a dose-dependent manner,0 1 μg/L induces the strongest inhibitory effect.

Objective To investigate the impact of palliative radiotherapy to the prognosis of patients with stage Ⅳ non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Methods Two hundred and forty-four cases of stage Ⅳ NSCLC were collected from our hospital.The study group (n =129) received the treatment of primary tumor and metastases palliative radiotherapy after chemotherapy.The control group (n =115) received only chemotherapy.Followed-up and compared 1-year and 2-year survival rate of the patients,and explored the factors affecting palliative radiotherapy.Results The 129 patients in the study group were followed up for 2 years,and 16 patients survived and 110 patients died.Three patients were lost to follow-up.The median survival time was 8 months.1-year and 2-year survival rates was 29.46％ (38/129) and 12.40％ (16/129) respectively.In the control group,7 patients survived,and 106 patients died.Two patients were lost to follow up.The median survival time was 6 months.1-year and 2-year survival rates was 11.30％ (13/115) and 6.09％ (7/115)respectively.Survival rates between the two groups were significantly different (x2 =8.451,P =0.014)Univariate regression analysis found that factors affecting the prognosis of stage Ⅳ NSCLC were KPS score (x2 =5.057,P =0.031),occurrence of brain metastases (x2 =4.781,P =0.029),number of organs of metastasis (x2 =6.341,P =0.010),and the primary stove radiotherapy dose (x2 =5.893,P =0.015) ; Cox regression model analysis showed that the number of organs of metastasis (HR =1.719,95％ CI 为 1.172-3.126,P =0.008),the primary focal radiotherapy dose (HR =1.560,95％ CI 为 1.082-2.761,P =0.022) were independent prognostic factors.Conclusion Palliative radiotherapy plays a role of prolonging survival time in the treatment of Ⅳ NSCLC.In palliative radiotherapy,we should pay attention to the control of the primary tumor and metastases radiotherapy dose,therefore prolonging the survival time of patients.

OBJECTIVE To promote the communion with the department of nosocomial infection management and clinic.METHODS Set up the intranet to carry out the report of the nosocomial infection cases and shared with(information).RESULTS The intranet was hitted exceed 5000 times,collected 56 cards of the nosocomial infection cases reported through network in the two months.CONCLUSIONS Intranet is good for promoting the communion with the department of nosocomial infection management and clinic.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of combined detection of procalcitonin (PCT), C-reactive protein (CRP), white blood cell (WBC), and neutrophil percentage (NEU%) in bloodstream infection with gram-positive coccus(G+), gram-negative bacillus (G-)and fungus.Methods Detection results of positive blood culture of 389 patients in a hospital between January 2014 and December 2015 were analyzed retrospectively, according to the results of blood culture, patients were divided into G+ coccus, G-bacillus and fungal bloodstream infection groups, inflammatory indicators of different groups of patients were compared.Results Mann-Whitney U test revealed that PCT level of G-infection group was higher than that of G+ and fungal infection group (comparison between G-infection group and G+ infection group : Z=-2.68,P<0.01;comparison between G-infection group and fungal infection group: Z=-2.46,P<0.05).If PCT≥0.5 ng/mL, CRP≥5.0 mg/L, NEU%≥70% and WBC≥10×109/L were as the cut-off point, statistical analysis revealed the positive rate of PCT in G-infection group was higher than that in G+ and fungal infection group(comparison between G-infection group and G+ infection group:χ2=5.94,P<0.05;comparison between G-infection group and fungal infection group:χ2=7.721,P<0.01);the positive rate of CRP in G-infection group was higher than that in G+ infection group (χ2=5.03,P<0.05).Binary logistic regression was adopted to analyze the efficacy of four indicators for the differentiation of bloodstream infection caused by G+ coccus, G-bacillus, and fungus, only PCT had significant difference in the identification of bloodstream infection caused by G-bacillus, G+ coccus and fungus(P<0.01).Conclusion PCT has high accuracy in differentiating G-bacillus, G+ coccus, and fungus of blood culture, dynamic monitoring of PCT combined with detection results of CRP, WBC, and NEU%, patient's condition can be judged rapidly, and antimicrobial agents can be used rationally, so the mortality of patients with bloodstream infection can be reduced.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of MR cholangiopancreatography(MRCP) using three-dimensional fast recovery fast spin-echo(3D FRFSE) in differentiating benign from malignant causes of biliary and pancreatic duct dilatation.Methods 106 cases suspected biliary and pancreatic duct dilatation underwent 3D FRFSE MRCP.The images were prospectively analysed by two skilled radiologists,and the results were compared with that of surgery,biopsy or follow-up.Results MRCP was successful performed at one time in all cases.On MRCP,the visual rate of intra-and extrahepatic bile duct was 100% and that of main pancreatic duct was 93.4%.80 patients had benign lesions: bile duct lithiasis(n=66),papillitis(n=6),descending part of duodenum diverticulitis(n=2),duodenal adenomatoid hyperplasia(n=1) and chronic pancreatitis(n=5).26 patients had malignant lesions: extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma(n=9),ampullary carcinoma(n=5),gallbladder carcinoma(n=4) and pancreatic head carcinoma(n=8).The sensitivity,specificity and accuracy in differentiating benign from malignant causes of biliary dilatation were 92.3%,96.3% and 95.3%,respectively.Conclusion 3D FRFSE MRCP plays an important role in diagnosis of differentiating diagnosis of the causes of biliary dilatation in clinical practice.

AIM: To investigate the expression of MAT1 protein in pancreatic cancers and the relationship between MAT1 and clinicopathological features of pancreatic cancers. METHODS: 94 surgical specimens, including 70 pancreatic cancers, 10 pancreatic benign tumors, 14 chronic pancreatitis and 10 autopsy normal pancreas tissues, were analyzed immunohistochemically, and then MAT1 expression and clinicopathological features were compared. RESULTS: MAT1 was expressed mainly in the cancer cells,and also in the fibroblasts, where it was localized within the cytoplasm and nuclear envelope. MAT1 expression was found in 75.7% (53/70) of the cancers, but not detected or weakly expressed in control tissues. There was a significant difference in expression of MAT1 among the above four tissues (P
