Objective:To illuminate the influence of InsB15-23 H-2Kd dtSCT to the morbidity of type 1 diabetes mellitus in NOD mice.Methods:An eukaryotic plasmid encoded membrane-expressed InsB15-23 H-2Kd dtSCT was inoculated into 3 weeks old female NOD mice subcutaneously and the blood sugar and morbidity of type 1 diabetes mellitus were monitored once a week.To illuminate the cellular mechanism of immunologic intervention of membrane-expressed InsB15-23 H-2Kd dtSCT to the course of type 1 diabetes mellitus in NOD mice,the mononuclear cell infiltration of islets was detected by tissue slice and the frequency of IGRP206 2-14 specific CTLs in PBMC was analyzed by FACs.Results: As compared with pcDNA3.1 (-) control ( 60%) and untreated NOD mice ( 80%) , mice immunized with InsB15-23 H-2Kd dtSCT exhibited low level of islet infiltration and low morbidity in 30 weeks old ( 9%) .But the frequency of IGRP206-214 specific CTLs in PBMC of 16 and 40 weeks old mice showed no difference.Conclusion:Membrane-expressed InsB15-23 H-2Kd dtSCT can protect NOD mice from type 1 diabetes mellitus in IGRP206-214 independent pattern.

Objective To develop a novel stress fracture animal model system based on dynamic cyclic mechanical loading.Methods Ulnae and tibiae of rats were respectively fixed using differently shaped fixtures (including a fixed holder and a movable holder).The axial mechanical loading was applied via a linear actuator based on LabVIEW control program.During the loading process,a load cell and a laser displacement transducer were used to detect the force and displacement changes in the limbs,respectively.The two signals were sampled at real time by PC-based LabVIEW data acquisition program.A compressive loading test (peak force of 50 N) was conducted to examine the consistency and reliability of cyclic loads after completing the loading system.The loading system and an ElectroForce 3220 mechanical testing machine were respectively used to measure and compare the Young's modulus of a standard ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE)cylinder to calibrate the loading system.Results The compressive loading test (peak force of 50 N) demonstrated that the mechanical loading system was able to apply consistent loads with controllable intensity and time.The calibration experiment indicated the accuracy of the loading system.Conclusion The novel mechanical loading device has characteristics of precision,scientificity and reliability,and it is approaching the real development situation of stress fracture,which may provide a reliable experimental base for exploring the precautionary measures of stress fracture.

Multi-source satellite remote sensing technology can be used to monitor the distribution and growth status of aquatic plant species on a large scale.In this paper,C,aoyou Lake was selected as the research area.Aquatic medicine material Euryaleferox Salisb was used as the research object.The spectral characteristics of plants in Euryaleferox Salisb growing area were analyzed by ASD portable spectrometer and the remote sensing image of Pléiades and GF-1.The spectral range of species was obtained.And the decision tree algorithm model was constructed,which were used to extract the information of Euryale ferox Salisb from remote sensing images.Through verification,the results showed that the accuracy of comprehensive classification was 83%.It was concluded that multi-source satellite remote sensing image and GIS spatial analysis technology can accurately reflect the area and distribution of aquatic medicine material Euryale ferox Salisb.

Based on the analysis of current situation of the metrological education of large medical imaging equipment in colleges and universities at home, the advantages of major of Biomedical Engineering (BME) and the internal relation with the requirement of personnel training of metrology were systematically investigated. The necessity of carrying out education of large medical imaging equipment metrology for BME students in colleges and universities was elucidated. The specific thoughts and countermeasures were also proposed from curriculum establishment, teaching design, textbook compilation, conditional construction and teaching staff, respectively. The study is hopeful to provide guidance and help for the education of the large medical imaging equipment metrology in colleges and universities.

OBJECTIVE:
To evaluate the treatment and prognosis of sinonasal mucosal melanoma (SMM).
METHOD:
Clinicopathological data of SMM patients from January 1976 to December 2005 were analyzed retrospectively. Survival analysis was performed and Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to compare the effect of clinicopathological factors on survival using SPSS 18.0 software. A Cox model was applied for multivariate analysis.
RESULT:
The 3-year and 5-year overall survival (OS) rates of 68 cases of SMM were 36.1% and 29.4%, respectively. The 3-year and 5-year OS of patients who underwent surgery or biotherapy were significantly higher than that of patients who underwent other therapeutic regimens without surgery or without biotherapy, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed the patients with distant metastasis at first present or residual/recurrence had a worse prognosis than that without distant metastasis or residual/recurrence, respectively. Surgery and biotherapy were effective treatments for SMM.
CONCLUSION
SMM has a poor prognosis, especially in the patients with distant metastasis or residual/recurrence. Surgery or biotherapy may improve the prognosis of patients with SMM.
