A DS-ELISA using rabbit anti-metacercaria serum-immunoglobulins as the first antibody and anti-metacercaria monoclonal antibodies as the second antibody were developed for the determination of circulating antigens in 38 cases of human paragonimiasis. The positive rate was 100% (38/38).

Objective To evaluate the laparoscopy in the diagnosis and treatment for acute abdominal emergency. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data of 35 patients with an acute abdomen of unknown causes diagnosed and treated under laparoscope from December 1999 to April 2003 in this hospital. Results Diagnosis was confirmed by laparoscopy in all the 35 cases. Laparoscopic operation was successfully completed in 28 cases, whereas a conversion to open surgery was required in 7 cases, in which the site of incision was under the guidance of laparoscopic observations. No surgery-related deaths or wound-related complications occurred. The mean operative time was 48 min (range, 30~72 min), and the mean hospital stay was 5.8 days (range, 3~9 days). Conclusions Laparoscopy is not only a safe and accurate diagnostic method, but also a good procedure for treatment.

ObjectiveTo study the effect of comprehensive rehabilitation therapy on activity of daily living(ADL) of old patients with stroke.Methods56 old patients with stroke were rehabilitated by the therapy of Bobath,Brunnstrom,Rood,PNF and psychotherapy for 3 months.The Modified Barthel Index (MBI) was applied to measure ADL before and after treatment.ResultsAfter treatment,the MBI of the patients was markedly higher than before(P<0.01),which was relative with the recovery of movement function and the psychology.ConclusionsThe rehabilitation therapy can improve ADL of old patients on stroke.

Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) is a kind of epithelial neoplasms of mucin-producing cells arising in the main duct and/or branch ducts of the pancreas,and it is one of the precancerous lesions of the pancreatic cancer.With the development of pathology and radiology,the diagnostic rate of IPMN has been gradually increased and given a new understanding on the pathological characteristics,clinical diagnosis and treatment of IPMN.This review overviewed the classification,diagnosis,management and prognosis of IPMN,aiming to deepen the understanding of IPMN and improve the level of diagnosis and treatment.

The article introduce a rapid method for preparation of fungal chromosome DNA In this method the quartz sand is used to break the fungal cell wall and the chromosome DNA is harvested rapidly in 1～2 h The method is applied successfully by the author to four kinds of fungi Neurospora crassa , Aspergillus oryzae , Morchella esculcnta , Saccharomyces cervisae All the chromosome DNA extracted has the fragment size lager than 20 kb and can be used directly for either digestion with restriction endoenzyme or PCR

Background and purpose:RASSF10 acts as a kind of tumor suppressor in various tumor tissues, but researches in cardiac adenocarcinoma has not been reported. This study aimed to detect the methylation status and expression ofRas-association domain family 10 (RASSF10) in gastric cardia adenocarcinoma (GCA), and explore its role in occurrence and development of GCA.Methods:Methylation speciifc polymerase chain reaction (MSP), reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and immunohistochemistry method were respectively used to detect methylation status, mRNA expression and protein expression ofRASSF10 in 81 GCA tissues and corresponding normal tissues.Results:The promoter methylation frequency ofRASSF10 in GCA tissues (64.20%, 52/81) was signiifcantly higher than that in corresponding normal tissues (20.99%, 17/81,P<0.05), and was closely correlated with TNM stages, differential degree and lymph node metastasis (P<0.05). RASSF10 mRNA expression in GCA tissues (0.57±0.05) was significantly lower than that in corresponding normal tissues (0.78±0.02,P<0.05), and was closely correlated with TNM stages and lymph node metastasis (P<0.05). Protein expression of RASSF10 in GCA tissues (31.10%, 26/81) was signiifcantly lower than that in corresponding normal tissues (71.60%, 58/81,P<0.05), and was closely correlated with TNM stages, differential degree and lymph node metastasis (P<0.05). The promoter methylation frequency ofRASSF10 in GCA tissues was inversely related to its protein expression.Conclusion:Inactivation of RASSF10 caused by aberrantmethylation in the promoter region may be closely correlated with the GCA tumorgenesis.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between stroke and nocturnal sleep apnea syndrome.Method:Some sleep physiological markers of the subjects were observed and analyzed by polysomnography(PSG).Result:OSA and OSH are chief types of sleep respiratory disturbance.AHI and hypoxia time are significantly higher(P<0.01)and nocturnal SaO2 significantly lower(P<0.01)than those in control group.Nocturnal blood pressure curve presented non-Dipper.Conclusion:Stroke is correlated with SAS closely.SAS is one of risk factors in stroke occurance.

Objective: To evaluate the effect of NGX6 with 5-Fu on the apoptosis of colon cancer cells. Methods: The NGX6-transfected HT-29 cell line with 5-Fu was used in the test group. HT-29 cell line with 5-Fu and PDTC was used in the control group. The expression of NF-κB was detected by EMSA. The proliferation of HT-29 cell line was assayed by MTT. The effect of NGX6 on the apoptosis was detected by FCM. HT-29 cells were double-stained by PI/Annexin-V and AO/EB and observed by fluorescence microscopy. Results: The expression of NF-κB was inhibited in NGX6 transfected colon carcinoma cell group and in colon carcino-ma cell group treated with PDTC. Treatment with the chemopreventive compounds 5-Fu and PDTC resulted in different responses in the effects of anti-proliferation and induced apoptosis of colon carcinoma cells. There was no significant difference in apoptosis between NGX6-transfected HT-29 call line with 5-Fu and the cells in the control group. NGX6 gene enhanced the effect of 5-Fu on the proliferation and apoptosis of colon carcino-ma cells. Conclusion: NGX6 gene can induce apoptosis and inhibit the proliferation of colon carcinoma cells. NGX6 gene can enhance the effect of 5-Fu on the proliferation and apoptosis of colon carcinoma cells through NF-κB pathway.
