The completion of sequencing human genome creates a new era of biological science and technology. Although the sequence of the human genome has been known, it is still hard to rapidly explore the whole functional genes, especially, their interaction with each other and the meaning to the body. However, the "reverse biology" which comes into being in the recent years provides us a series of novel ideas and technologies for discovering new functional gene, among which the immune-related genes have attracted more attentions, clarifying how functional gene works and their potential value in application.

[Objective]To study diagnosis and treatment of insidious infection after the internal fixation of long bone fracture.[Method]Thirteen patients with insidious infection after internal fixation of long bone fracture were treated with irrigation after debridment. Among the 13 cases 8 fractures were dislodged internal fixation and then were fixed with the external fixation. 5 fractures were remained the internal fixation and were instilled after debridment. All of the patients were given with antibiotics for 2~3 weeks after operation.[Result]All the 13 patients were followed up. The follow-ranged from 8 to 48 months with an average of 23.5 months. Among the thirteen patients 11 fractured-bone had bony union, one nonunion and one case had fistula, Infection relapsed in two patients.[Conclusion]Bone defects, fracture nonunion often occur on patients who have insidious infection after internal fixation of long bone fracture. These patients need to be operated. In slight infections fracture can be remained after debridement. Fractures with seriously infectious have to dislodge internal fixation and to be fixed with made according to its radiographic changes.

Objective To compare the retromolar space (RMS) between different antero-posterior (A-P) skeletal patterns, and explore the relationship between the status of third molar eruption/impaction with the different A-P skeletal patterns. Methods A total of 90 orthodontic patients (25-35 years old) were investigated from dental pantomograms (DPTs) and lateral cephalograms (LC). The subjects were divided into three groups according to their ANB angle:skeletal classⅠ, skeletal classⅡ, and skeletal classⅢ. Each group was subdivided into impacted and erupted subgroups. Values of DPT and LC were traced, and the following variables were measured including mandibular body length, third molar angulation and ret-romolar space width. Results The retromolar space width was significantly smaller in classⅡsubjects than that in classⅢsubjects, and RMS was significantly smaller in impacted group than that in erupted group, respectively (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the mandibular angle in erupted subgroup (P<0.05). There was a smaller mandibular body length in impacted subjects (P<0.05). Conclusion There is a relationship between different morphological characteristics of sagittal skeletal pattern and the impacted status. Patients with shorter mandibular body length and decreased RMS width are more inclined to impaction.

Objective:To study the role of IL-2,IL-4,IL-6,IL-10,IL-13 and IFN? in pathogenesis of human tumor.Methods:The gene expression of 6 cytokines in human tumor cell lines and specimens were detected by RT-PCR or RNA dot hybridization.Results: There were predominant expression of Th2 type cytokines in 183 different human tumor cell lines and specimens.The positive rate of IL-4,IL-6,IL-10,IL-13 .IFN? and IL-2 in 183 tumor cell lines and specimens were 65%,70.5%,83.6%,61.7%, 12.6% and 22.9%,respectively.Conclusion: Predominant expression of Th2 type cytokines play an important role in the pathogenesis and development of tumor, may be related to the evasion of tumor cells from immune surveillance.

Objective To investigate the relationship between circulating tumor cells(CTCs) in peripher-al blood and the prognosis of pancreatic cancer patients. Method From Mar 2010 to Mar 2015, patients with pancreatic cancer in guangzhou first people′s hospital were enrolled in this study. Immunomagetic negative en-richhment together with immunofluorescence were used to identify CTCs. The clinical data of all patients were analyzed. Result No CTCs were found in peripheral blood of healthy control cases. The detection date of CTCs was 60.0%. The positive rate of CTCs was closely correlated with cell differentiation and the clinical stage. Con clusion CTCs count in old patients with pancreatic cancer can reflect the status of the patients and is help-ful for the diagnosis of micrometastasis , re-determination of the clinical stage and the guidance of patients′s treatment. CTCs count can predict the survival time of elderly patients with pancreatic cancer.

Objective To discuss the setting problem of control limit for quality control chart during the statistical quality con-trol procedure of clinical laboratory quantitative measurement.Methods The normality test of the monthly quality control data for 3 items of albumin (ALB),alanine aminotransferase (ALT)and creatinine (Cr)was performed by using the SPSS 14.0 statistical software and which was compared with the cumulated data.Results Among 30 groups of data,the normality test was inconformity in 18 groups,among 30 groups of mean t test,the differences in 20 groups showed statistical significance(P <0.05).Therefore,the calculated means and standard deviation(SD)in short term could not be directly set as the control limit of the quality control chart. Conclusion Setting the control limit of internal quality control in clinical laboratory quantitative measurement should be according to the guidance of C24-A3 document in CLSI.The SD estimated value obtained from large amount stable quality control data or the 6-month cumulative values is recommended to be used as SD of the new batch number,which should be regularly assessed.
