Objective To investigate early and differential diagnosis of Alzheimer disease and vascular dementia (VD)using FDG-PET scan. Methods Clinical data was collected from AD,VD and normal control(NC). 18F-2-fluo-ro-deoxy-D-glucose(18F-FDG)PET scan was conducted to detect the cerebral FDG metabolism. The average standard uptake value (SUV) of cerebral regions was expressed as semiquantitative index relative to ipsilateral cerebellum. Re-sults There were no differences in age and the mean total scores of the mini mental status examination (MMSE) between patients with VD and those with AD.The AD group showed that the SUV was significantly decreased in the right frontal, parietal,temporal lobe,hippocampus,temporo-parietal junction,and bilateral posterior cingulate cortex compared to the VD and in the bilateral posterior cingulate cortex,temporo-parietal junction,frontal and temporal lobe comparing to the NC(P≤0.01). SUV was significantly increased in the right parietal,posterior cingulate cortex and hippocampus whereas was significantly decreased in the left frontal lobe,temporo-parietal junction and thalamus in the VD compared with NC group(P≤0.01). Conclusion AD patients have typical features of 18F-FDG PET which may be helpful for the diagnosis of AD in the early stage.

Objective To study the distribution of genotypes of hepatitis C virus in Guizhou and its relationship between infec-tious route of genotype and age ,gender was analyzed .Methods Serum specimens in this study were obtained from 198 patients , whose anti-HCV and HCV RNA were positive .A reverse transcriptase PCR(RT nested-PCR)assay using conserved primers de-duced from the core-envelope 1(C-E1)region of the hepatitis C virus(HCV)genome was employed to amplify a 474-nucleotide-long fragment .Phylogenetic analysis of the C-E1 sequences was conducted by direct sequencing of the RT-PCR products and alignment with published HCV subtypes in GenBank .Subtypes of the samples were determined by nucleotide sequencing followed by composi-tion of a phylogenetic tree .Results Among the 198 patients surveyed ,genotype 1a was detected in 4 cases(2 .0% ) ,genotype 1b in 71 cases(35 .9% ) ,genotype 2a in 9 cases(4 .6% ) ,genotype 3a in 29 cases(14 .7% ) ,genotype 3b in 47 cases(23 .7% ) ,genotype 6 a in 37 cases(18 .7% )and genotype 6d in 1 cases(0 .5% ) .Genotype distribution on gender had no statistical significance(P>0 .05) , and its distribution on people with different ages had statistical significance(P<0 .05) ,and its distribution on patients with different infectious routes was significantly different(P<0 .05) .Conclusion The major genotypes of HCV are 1b ,3b ,6a and 3a in Guizhou , and genotype 1a is predominant .Genotypes 1a ,2a and 6d exist too .Genotypes of patients infected with HCV are related to their in-fectious routes ,and the HCV genotypes are in a great variety .

Objective To understand the enterovirus(EV) pathogenic composition of Coxsackie virus(CV)A6 and A10 causing hand foot and mouth disesse(HFMD) in Guiyang area during 2015 to provide a basis for the prevention and treatment of HFMD in local area.Methods The specific primers were respectively designed according to CVA6 and CVA10 sequence published in GenBank.The fluorescence quantitative RT-PCR method system was established.The gene sequencing method was used for conducting verification.Then this method was used to detect the clinical samples from 607 cases of HFMD.Results A total of 607 samples of suspected HFMD were detected,the overall positive rate was 59.47 ％ (361/607),in which EV71 accounted for 7.25 ％ (44/607),CVA16 for 11.37％(69/607),EV71+CVA16 double positive accounted for 0.16％ (1/607) and other EV for 40.69％ (247/607).The positive samples of CVA6,CVA10 and CVA6+CVA10 detected by the established real time fluorescence RT-PCR were 11 cases,71 cases and 1 case.Conclusion CVA6 and CVA10 are the main pathogens causing new onset HFMD in Guiyang area and the CVA10 monitoring should be strengthened.

Expressed sequence tags (ESTs) are widely used in gene survey research these years. The EST Pipeline System, software developed by Hangzhou Genomics Institute (HGI), can automatically analyze different scalar EST sequences by suitable methods. All the analysis reports, including those of vector masking, sequence assembly, gene annotation, Gene Ontology classification, and some other analyses, can be browsed and searched as well as downloaded in the Excel format from the web interface, saving research efforts from routine data processing for biological rules embedded in the data.

Objective To compare the long-term outcomes of the retropubic tension-free vaginal tape (TVT) versus the transobturator tension-free vaginal tape (TVT-O) for women with stress urinary incontinence (SUI).Methods From July 2001 to June 2011,data of 120 female patients with SUI were retrospectively reviewed,of which 45 patients received TVT treatment,while 75 patients received TVT-O.The median age in TVT group was 45.1 years (range 35-72 years),and the median age in TVT-O group was 50.5 years (range 39-76 years).We retrospectively analyzed the long-term subjective effect,objective effect and the rate of complications in the two groups.Results Median follow-up period was 121 months (range 72-192 months).The complete satisfaction rate was 89％ (40/45) in TVT group,and 92％(69/75) in TVT-O group,with no statistical difference between the two groups.The negative rate of cough test was 84.4％ (38/45) in TVT group,and 76.0％ (57/75)in TVT-O group,with a statistically significant difference.The rate of urinary tract injury was 8.9％ (4/45) in TVT group,and 4.0％ (3/75) in TVT-O group.The rate of thigh pain was 0 in TVT group,and 6.7％ (3/45) in TVT-O group.The rate of micturition frequency and urinary incomplete emptying after operations was 6.7％ (5/75) in TVT group,and 5.3％ (4/75) in TVT-O group.Conclusions The long-term subjective effect between TVT and TVT-O groups was similar.The objective effect in TVT group was better.There was no statistical difference in complication rate between the two groups,which showed different types of complications in different procedures.

Enhancers activate transcription in a distance-, orientation-, and position-independent manner, which makes them difficult to be identified. Self-transcribing active regulatory region sequencing (STARR-seq) measures the enhancer activity of millions of DNA fragments in parallel. Here we used STARR-seq to generate a quantitative global map of rice enhancers. Most enhancers were mapped within genes, especially at the 5' untranslated regions (5'UTR) and in coding sequences. Enhancers were also frequently mapped proximal to silent and lowly-expressed genes in transposable element (TE)-rich regions. Analysis of the epigenetic features of enhancers at their endogenous loci revealed that most enhancers do not co-localize with DNase I hypersensitive sites (DHSs) and lack the enhancer mark of histone modification H3K4me1. Clustering analysis of enhancers according to their epigenetic marks revealed that about 40% of identified enhancers carried one or more epigenetic marks. Repressive H3K27me3 was frequently enriched with positive marks, H3K4me3 and/or H3K27ac, which together label enhancers. Intergenic enhancers were also predicted based on the location of DHS regions relative to genes, which overlap poorly with STARR-seq enhancers. In summary, we quantitatively identified enhancers by functional analysis in the genome of rice, an important model plant. This work provides a valuable resource for further mechanistic studies in different biological contexts.
