The hair arsenic levels of nonoccupq-tional esposed nornal subjects,aged 20~55 years,were analysed by neutron activation analysis in Shaoguan.The median and geometric mean are 0.121?g/g and 0.118?g/ g respectively.These results are lower than many other reports in China.This paper proposes the 95% upper Limit value of hair arsenic level is 0.320?g/g.

Objective To evaluate the effect of mining waste water on drinking water quality and tumor mortality of villagers. Methods Analyse quality of drinking water sampled from well which only supply water to a family which the well belongs to and survey the death reasons of whole population in the polluted area and the control area. Results Mining waste water discharged by a mine contaminated the nearby river and impacted the drinking water quality of the nearby village also. Compared with the control, the concentration of lead, arsenic and mercury in drinking water of polluted area was much higher. The 5,year total mortality in polluted area and in the control was 3.09% and 1.55% respectively. Tumor mortality in polluted area was 50%, esophagus cancer mortality was 54.24%. Tumor mortality in the control area was 20% only and most tumors were liver cancer. Conclusion The adverse effect of mining waste water on drinking water quality and human health in polluted area has been seen.

Objective To evaluate the effect of endothelin A receptor antisense oligodeoxynucleotides (ETAR-ASODN)on the growth of human prostatic stromal cells. Methods Primary cultured prostatic stromal cells were derived from patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).The cells of passages 4～6 were routinely used for this study after identification.ETAR-ASODN at the concentrations of 5,10 and 15 ?mol/L were added into the culture cells with lipofectin, and cell proliferation was measured by MTT assay. The expression of ETA receptor was tested by 125 I-ET-1 radioligand banding assay. Results MTT assays showed a significant decrease in cell proliferation in stromal cells after 5,10 and 15?mol/L ETAR-ASODN were added with the A 540 values being 0.304?0.082,0.296?0.008 and 0.194?0.061,respectively.The proliferative activity was significantly decreased compared with control group ( P

Objectives To understand the vaccination situation of left-behind children in rural areas,provide the evidence for developing vaccination strategies for left-behind children.Methods The counties with population over 1,000,000 were selected from Anhui and Sichuan provinces respectively to conduct survery to the children who were born between the year 2003 and 2006,and had registration on vaccination book(card).Results The proportion of left-behind and outflow children are 17.94% and 6.05% respectively.The information about the children’s parents going out most came from village doctors. The proportion of the parents going out after children born was 51.60%,staying outside for more than 10 months was 78.50%. 67.97% pareets came back home during the spring festival,35.43% left-behind children went out with their parents.Conclusion Although the number of outflow children was smaller than the left-behind children,it was easy to develop immunization gap. It is the difficult part of management on EPI to migraut children. The information aboat the children’s parents going out mostly came from village doctors. It is impotant to mobilize the enthusiasm of doctors.It is especially essential that we should propagandize to the people with vaccination knowledge to the pareets came back home during spring festival.

Objective To observe the effect of Shengeyifei capsule on the inflammatory mediators in the airway and the pathology of the airway in the rat with chronic obstructive pulmonary diserse (COPD). Methods 60 SD rats were divided randomly into normal group, COPD model group, Jinshuibao control group and Shengeyifei groups. The COPD model was established by smoking and infusing lipopoly- saccharide (LPS). The level of interleukin-8 (IL-8) and tumor necrosis factor ? (TNF-?) in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) were measured and the pathology of the airway and lung tissue was observed after treatment on the rats. Result The levels of IL-8 and TNF-? in Shengeyifei groups were lower than in COPD model group (P

ObjectiveTo explore the genetic impact of TPH1 A218C,MAOA-uVNTR on abnormal frontal lobe of depressed patients and the interactions between the two polymorphisms using the method of genetic imaging.Methods28 patients with major depression and 34 healthy controls which were equal in sex,age,years of education and had negative family history of mental illness were recruited in our study.All paticipants underwent functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (FMRI) in negative emotion recognition and were divided into different genotypes.Then frontal lobe was extracted as region of interest by WFU software into six subregions-bilateral superior frontal lobe,middle frontal lobe and inferior frontal lobe.ResultsPatients (0.19 ± 0.01 ) and controls (0.15± 0.05 ) with TPH1 AA genotype showed increased activation in left inferior frontal lobe than patients and controls with AC or CC genot.Patients with AA genotype showed increased activation in right inferior frontal gyrus(0.28 ±0.07) than other five groups as well.Patients with MAOA-H genotype showed increased activation in right middle frontal gyrus(0.15 ±0.06),left inferior frontal gyrus(0.18±0.02) than patients and controls with L genotype.Superimposition of TPH1 A218C and MAOA-uVNTR exsited in abnormal function of left inferior frontal gyrus(F=4.98,P =0.047 ).Patients with AA and H genotype showed increased activation in this area significantly than other patient group.ConclusionDifferent genes in serotonin system can affect brain function through a common 5-HT feature.

Objective To investigate the value of 18F-FDG SUVmax in gastric cancer diagnosis with coincidence imaging.Methods The coincidence imaging was performed in 92 patients with gastric diseases (60 males,32 females,age 65 (32-85) years; 78 malignant cases,14 benign cases).The malignant cases included 3 remnant gastric cancers and 75 primary gastric cancers (staging: 4 of Tis,13 of T1,9 of T2,33 of T3,11 of T4 and 5 without surgery).The well-,moderately-and poorly-differentiated adenocarcinomas were 22,15 and 28,respectively.Images were analyzed retrospectively with visual method and 18F-FDG SUVmax,and the diagnostic results were compared with the histopathological findings.The ROC curve was used to analyze the SUVmax.The Pearson's correlation analysis was performed to evaluate the relationship between SUVmax and tumor size.The Wilcoxon rank sum test was applied to determine the difference of SUVmax between early and advanced gastric cancers.The Kruskal-Wallis test was used to analyze the difference of SUVmax in various types of differentiated adenocarcinoma.Results No matter visual method or SUVmax was used,the sensitivity,specificity and accuracy of coincidence imaging in diagnosis of gastric cancer were 64.1％(50/78),64.3％(9/14) and 64.1％(59/92),respectively.The AUC of SUVmax was 0.695 and the cut-off value was 0.700.SUVmax Was positively correlated with tumor size significantly(r=0.489,P＜0.001).There was statistically significant difference between SUVmax of Tis-1 and that of T2-4(0.676± 1.288 vs 3.851 ±3.764;Z=-3.754,P＜0.001).However,there was no statistically significant difference among SUVmax of various grades of differentiated adenocarcinoma(2.805±4.008,3.447±2.365,3.413± 3.737 ; x2 =2.459,P＞ 0.05).Conclusions SUVmax provides more information than visual method in assessing gastric cancer with 18F-FDG coincidence imaging.Appropriate cut-off value of SUV is necessary for improvement of the diagnostic efficiency.Relationships between SUV and pathological T stage,histopathological types and differentiation degree need further investigation.

Objective To explore the impact of the variable number of tandem repeats of monoamine oxidase A gene (MAOA-uVNTR) on the concentration of gray matter in patients with major depressive disorders.Methods 56 cases of depression, as well as 37 healthy controls who were matched in gender, age and years of education were divided into low-activity genotype (3R or 3R/4R), and high-activity genotype (4R) with the methods of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification and 1.5％ agarose gel electrophoresis separation. 93 cases all were performaned structural magnetic resonance imaging scanning. Results ① The difference of genotype and allele frequency between the depression group and the healthy group was not statistically significant(P＞0.05 ). ②Compared with the healthy,the concentration of gray matter( GMC ) of bilateral caudate nucleus (K = 11/68, Z =3.76/4.76 ), bilateral thalamus ( K = 21/181, Z = 3.26/3.63 ) and right hypothalamus ( K = 38/12, Z = 4.20/3.60) reduced significantly in depressed patients. ③ In patients with depression, cases with the high-activity genotype showed reduced GMC bilateral caudate nucleus (K = 17/33, Z = 3.23/4.36 ), left putamen ( K = 16, Z =3.42 ) and right hypothalamus( K = 12, Z = 3.62 ) in comparision with patients with low-activity genotype. In highactivity genotype group,compared with the healthy,patients with depression had reduced GMC in left caudate nucleus ( K = 11, Z = 4.13 ), bilateral thalamus ( K = 13/14, Z = 3.53/3.23 ) and left parahippocampal gyrus ( K = 13,Z = 4.04). Conclusion High-activity genotype may be an important factor contributing to the structural abnormalitily of the limbic-striatum-globus pallidus-thalamus loop.
