A study the quantitative measurement of DNA content in 3 normal lacrimal glands, 18 pleo-morphie adcnomas and 21 lacrimal gland carcinomas was carried out by flow eytometry. The results showed that pleomorphie adenomas still had the characteristics of DNA content of the normal diploid lacrimal gland cells. The significant increase of DNA index (DI) in pleomorphie adenomas might mean malignant transformation. DNA content of malignant tumor increased evidently and its aneuploid ratio was higher than in pleomorphic adenomas (76.2% VS 16.8%) (P

Objective Perioperative fluid therapy has always been the most basic and important measure to maintain the stability of patients'cyclic system.Colloid and crystalloid,as common perioperative fluid,play different roles in clinical application due to the different molecular sizes.In the recent years,besides their contribution to maintain the stability of cyclic system,scientists have begun to pay attention to the effect on coagulation,especially their comparison.This paper mainly discusses the study status of the influence on coagulation produced by different liquids.

Nrf2/Keap1/ARE is an important signaling pathway in maintaining the balance between peroxide and antioxidants. Once oxidative stress happened, Nrf2/Keap1/ARE would be ac-tivated to regulate the expression of downstream antioxidant pro-teins that could reduce the injury from oxidative stress and the level of oxidative stress. Recent researches show that Nrf2/Keap1/ARE signaling pathway is closely related to refractory re-spiratory diseases such as pulmonary fibrosis (PF), lung canc-er, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), suggesting that Nrf2/Keap1/ARE signaling pathway may be a potential ther-apeutic target. This review focuses on the role of Nrf2/Keap1/ARE signaling pathway in refractory respiratory diseases in order to further understand the related mechanism and provide evidence for the diagnosis and treatment of refractory respiratory diseases.

Objective:To detect the effects of porcelain-fused-to-metal(PFM)crown on the periodontal tissue of the restored teeth,and the relationship between the levels of intedeukin(IL)-1β,aspartate transaminase(AST)and alkaline phosphatase(ALP)in gingival crevicular fluid(GCF)and the health condition of periodontal tissue.Methods:Among 28 patients,34 maxillary incisors with PFM crowns were selected for the study.There were 19 Ni-Cr PFM crowns and 15 Au-Pt PFM crowns.The contralateral homonymy natural teeth were healthy and treated as control teeth.The patients were followed up 6 to 8 months after restoring crowns.The values of IL-1β,AST and ALP in GCF were analysed.Results:The concentrations of IL1β and ALP were significantly higher in GCF of Ni-Cr PFM compared with those of control,whereas no significant difference in Au-Pt PFM group compared with that of control.The level of GCF-AST was higher in Ni-Cr PFM and Au-Pt PFM group than that of healthy control.Conclusion:Ni-Cr PFM crowns have negative influence on periodontal tissue,but Au-Pt PFM have little influence on periodontal tissue of the restored teeth.The activity of IL-1β,AST and ALP of GCF are sensitive to reflect the effect of PFM crowns of different materials on periodontal tissue.

Objective To study the pharmacodynamics features of cisatracurium besylate in differ-ent age patients. Methods One hundred and eighty patients were randomized to group Ⅰ (50-60 years old),group Ⅱ (61-70 years old)and group Ⅲ (above 70 years old).Each group was subdivided according to the dose of cisatracurium besylate, 0.10 mg/kg (2ED95)or 0.15 mg/kg (3ED95) into group Ⅰ2, Ⅰ3, Ⅱ2, Ⅱ3,Ⅲ2, Ⅲ3(n = 30).ECG, SpO2, PETCO2, HR and neuromuscular blockade were monitored. Intubation conditions were assessed when T1 was zero after cisatracurium besylate administer ration using a 4-part scale.The onset time, TOF no reaction time, duration time, recovery lime and hemodynamic response time were recorded. Re-sults The onset times of group Ⅰ3, Ⅱ3 and Ⅲ3 were significantly shorter than those of group Ⅰ2, Ⅱ2 and Ⅲ2 (P < 0.05).The percentages of patients with excellent intubation condition in group Ⅰ3, Ⅱ3 and Ⅲ3 were 93%, 90%, and 80%, which were markedly higher than those in group Ⅰ2, Ⅱ2 and Ⅲ2 (67%, 60%, 60%). TOF no reaction time and duration time were longer in group Ⅰ3, Ⅱ3 and Ⅲ3 than those in group Ⅰ2, Ⅱ2 and Ⅲ2. There was no significant difference in muscle chalasis among the six groups. Conclusions Cisatracuri-um besylate 0.15 mg/kg produces quicker onset time and acceptable intubation conditions in the different age patients than 0.10 mg/kg. Recovery time is independent on the dosage and age. Aging has no influence on the phannacodynamics of single injection of cisatracurium besylate.

Objective To hy out a course of nursing intervention programmes for patients undergoing coronary intenrentional therapy on the basis of the health belief model(HBM),and estimate its clinical effectbv measuring the change ofquality of life(QOL).Methods 64 patients were randomly selected and divided into 2 groups,the experimental group was treated with the nursing intervetnion on the basis of the HBM,and the control group was treated with routine nursing measures.The quality of life wes compared between the two groups after intervention.Results The total score of QOL,the restricted ability of activity,the therapy satis-faction and the subiective feelings of patients to disease of the two groups had significant difference after inter- vention,P<0.01,but no difference in angina stabilization and occurrence was seen,P>0.05. Conclusions Nursing programmes on the basis of the HBM make the QOL of patients to improve evidently.
