Objective To assess the proficiency of water monitoring laboratory at rural, county, and provincial levels in Guangdong province, to ensure the province's drinking water monitoring results accurate and reliable. Methods State quality of certified reference materials as water arsenic, fluoride and chloride of 90 copies each were numbered and distributed to 90 monitoring laboratories in the province for testing, The measurement results of the participatory labs were evaluated through normative values and expanded uncertainty, and were compared with those of robust statistics method. Results All participatory labs had timely feedback of their measurement results. The qualified rate was higher when arsenic was tested by hydride generation atomic fluorescence spectrometry and zinc-new silver salt of sulfuric acid spectrophotometric system, while fluoride and chloride by ion chromatography. The average qualified rates of water arsenic, fluoride and chloride of the province's rural drinking water quality monitoring laboratory were 66% (59/90), 72% (65/90) and 72% (65/90), respectively.Seven participatory labs failed the proficiency testing of all three analytes and unqualified rate was 7.8% (7/90)among the ninety participated monitoring labs. The qualified rates of robust statistics method for arsenic fluoride and chloride were greater than those evaluated by the expanded uncertainty, and large deviations with small sample sizes. Conclusions The testing ability of drink-water monitoring labs in Guangdong province has improved.However, by comparison with the requirements of national quality control and testing skills, there is still a gap. It is suggested that internal quality control be included in routine inspeetion to improve laboratory testing technology.

AIMTo observe the stability of BCG-induced insulin resistance model.
METHODSThe glucose tolerance, serum glucose, FFA, insulin, triglycerides, cholesterol, TNF-alpha and ALT level were measured. The change of GDR was measured by euglycemic clamp in model rats after given i.v. BCG 2, 4 and 8 weeks.
RESULTSAfter 2, 4 and 8 weeks, the GIR and glucose tolerance of the animals deceased significantly. After 2, 4 and 8 weeks, BCG infusion resulted in a pronounced reduction in glucose tolerance and insulin-stimulated glucose disposal rate [GDR = GDR: (29 +/- 6) vs (13 +/- 7) mg.kg-1.min-1 2 weeks; (29 +/- 6) vs (11 +/- 7) mg.kg-1.min-1 4 weeks and (23 +/- 3) vs (16 +/- 3) mg.kg-1.min-1 8 weeks, respectively, P < 0.01]. BCG infusion resulted in a pronounced increase in the weights of the liver [(6.2 +/- 0.9) vs (8.2 +/- 1.3) g, P < 0.05] and spleens [(0.51 +/- 0.11) vs (1.4 +/- 0.4) g, P < 0.01]. The histo-pathological results showed that BCG infusion resulted severe inflammation in the livers and spleens and the ratio of beta/alpha in pancreas increased. The serum levels of triglyceride, FFA and glucose were unchanged, but the level of serum TNF-alpha [543 +/- 60) vs (759 +/- 137) pg.mL-1, P < 0.05] and insulin [(31 +/- 5) vs (36 +/- 5) mu.L-1, P > 0.05] increased.
CONCLUSIONThis novel model of immune insulin resistance is completely and constantly established.

OBJECTIVE:
To study the distribution of peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets in healthy children aged 0-6 years.
METHODS:
A total of 826 healthy Han children aged 0-6 years were recruited. According to their age, the children were divided into four groups: newborn, infant, toddler and preschool. Their peripheral blood samples were collected to measure the percentages of lymphocyte subsets by flow cytometry.
RESULTS:
There were significant differences in the percentages of CD3 T cells, CD3CD4 T cells and CD3CD19 B cells and the CD4/CD8 ratio between boys and girls (P<0.05). The girls had a lower percentage of CD3CD19 B cells, higher percentages of CD3 T cells and CD3CD4 T cells and a higher CD4/CD8 ratio than the boys. The newborn group had the highest percentages of CD3 T cells and CD3CD4 T cells and the highest CD4/CD8 ratio (P<0.05). The percentage of CD3CD4 T cells and the CD4/CD8 ratio gradually decreased with age and the preschool group had the lowest values (P<0.05). The newborn group had the lowest percentages of CD3CD19 B cells and CD3CD16CD56 NK cells (P<0.05). The percentage of CD3CD16CD56 NK cells gradually increased with age and the preschool group had the highest percentage (P<0.05). The percentage of CD3CD19 B cells reached the peak in the toddler period and then decreased with age (P<0.05). The preschool group had the highest percentage of CD3CD8 T cells (P<0.05). The variation trend of distribution of lymphocyte subsets in boys from different age groups was consistent with that in children from different age groups. For girls, the newborn group had the highest percentage of CD3CD4 T cells and CD4/CD8 ratio (P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
The distribution of peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets in healthy children is significantly different across ages and sexes. Therefore, the reference values should be established according to age and sex.

OBJECTIVEThis study examined the effects of PI3K inhibitor LY294002 on the differentiation of mouse preadipocytes and the expression of CCAAT enhancer binding protein α (C/EBPα) and peroxisome proliferation activated receptor γ (PPARγ), in order to study the possible roles of insulin receptor substrate (IRSs)/PI3K signal pathway in the differentiation of preadipocytes.
METHODSThe mouse 3T3-L1 cells were cultured normally and divided into experimental and control groups. 3T3-L1 cells in the experimental group were treated with PI3K inhibitor LY294002 (25 μmol/L) and those in the control group were treated with DMSO culture medium. 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX) (0.5 mmol/L), dexamethasone (10-6 mol/L) and insulin (5 μg/mL) were used to induce the differentiation of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes in both groups. Before culture, and 2, 4 and 8 days after culture, the cells were collected to detect the expression of C/EBPα and PPARγ by real-time PCR and Western blot assays. The lipid droplets of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes were observed by oil-red O staining.
RESULTSPI3K inhibitor LY294002 did not affect the expression of C/EBPα and PPARγ in un-induced 3T3-L1 preadipocytes (P>0.05), but decreased the expression of C/EBPα and PPARγ during the in vitro induced differentiation of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes compared with the control group (P<0.05 or 0.01). The lipid droplets count was greatly reduced by LY294002.
CONCLUSIONSPI3K inhibitor LY294002 can inhibit the differentiation of mouse 3T3-LI preadipocytes and the expression of C/EBPα and PPARγ in the differentiation of 3T3-LI preadipoeytes, suggesting that IRSs/PI3K signal pathway may play an important role in the differentiation of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes by regulating the expression of C/EBPα and PPARγ.

OBJECTIVETo study the clinical application and the safety of electronic gastroscopy in infants at ages of 0-3 months.
METHODSAn Olympus electronic gastroscope GIF 260 or GIF 230 was applied in 177 infants at ages of 0-3 months with upper gastrointestinal symptoms. An ECG Monitor II was used for monitoring heart rate, cardiac rhythm and pulse transcutaneous oxygen saturation in 65 infants during the whole process of gastroscopy. Some related treatments were performed under the electronic gastroscope, such as removal of foreign body, topical administration of antihemorrhagic drugs, reduction of volvulus of stomach and bougienage of oesophagus.
RESULTSAll 177 infants were examined successfully and they all well tolerated. Forty-two cases demonstrated positive findings in 68 cases of upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Ninety-two cases demonstrated positive findings in 104 cases of recurrent vomiting. Under the electronic gastroscope, removal of foreign body in the upper gastrointestinal tract was performed in 5 cases; topical administration of antihemorrhagic drugs or electrocoagulation for stopping bleeding in 22 cases; reduction of volvulus of stomach in 3 cases.
CONCLUSIONSAs a safe and visual means for diagnosis of digestive tract diseases, the electronic gastroscopy may be recommended for wide application in infants at ages of 0-3 months.
