Objective To express and preliminary identify scavenger receptor B2 (SCARB2)protein.Methods SCARB2 cDNA was amplified by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR)from mRNA extracted from RD cells,and cloned into pMD19-T vector.Expression vector pET28a(+)/SCARB2 was constructed,and SCARB2 protein was expressed in prokaryotic ex-pression system.Obtained recombinant proteins were identified by detection of Western blot using His labeled monoclonal antibody.Results Recombinant SCARB2 proteins,expressed by induction of isopropy-β-D-thiogalactoside (IPTG),were success-fully purified and specifically recognized by His labeled monoclonal antibody.Conclusion SCARB2 proteins could be expressed and identified successfully,which could provide reference for researching mechanism of enterovirus type 71 (EV71)and scavenger re-ceptor protein,and for preparation of SCARB2 monoclonal antibodies.

Objective To evaluate transurethral ultrasonic scanning in the diagnosis and staging of bladder tumor. Methods Form 1996 to 2000 transurethral ultrasonography(TUUS) was carried out for 70 cases of bladder cancer and the findings were compared with cystoscopy,transabdominal ultrasonography(TAUS),CT,MRI and pathological studies. Results The diagnosis rate of TUUS has been 99.1% being better than cystoscopy and TAUS.The accurate staging rate was 100.0% in stage T 1 tumors, 95.8% in stage T 2,82.4% in stage T 3 and 55.6% in stage T 4. Conclusions TUUS can clearly reveal the depth of tumor infiltration and therefore is an important method for the diagnosis and staging of early bladder tumor.

A SnO2-CuO composite nanofiber was prepared by the coaxial electrospinning method. A new thin-film-type hydrogen sulfide gas sensor was designed by coating SnO2-CuO composite nanofibers onto an alumina ceramic tube with Au electrodes by dip-coating method. The crystalline phase and microstructure of SnO2-CuO composite nanofibers were characterized using X-ray diffraction ( XRD ) and scanning electron microscope ( SEM) . The influence of chemical composition and thickness of sensitive film on the sensitive mechanism and electrochemical characteristic of SnO2-CuO nanofibers were analyzed. The characteristic tests of hydrogen sulfide sensor including sensitive performance, temperature, relative humidity, dynamic response, interference and stability were carried out by WS-30A type multifunction analyzer in gas sensor test system. The results demonstrated that, when the operating temperature was 25℃ and hydrogen sulfide gas concentration increased from 10 to 60 mg/L, the hydrogen sulfide sensor based on C50 composite nanofibers with 70 nm sensitive film thickness had the best linearity (92. 3%) and sensitivity (98. 2%). Besides, its highest response values and relatively humidity level were 1080 and 95%, respectively, and its dynamic response time and recover time were 4 s and 12 s, respectively. This sensor showed good anti-disturbance to the gases, such as CO, NO2 , SO2 , NH3 , CO2 , CH4 and H2 . The response value of the sensor was attenuated about 9. 2% when it was applied continually in the mine about 12 months, and its normal response time was 10. 9 months.

Objective To study the feasibility and the efficacy of total extraperitoneal repair (TEP) under two laparoscopes.Methods Clinical data of 51 patients with inguinal hernia who underwent TEP under two laparoscopes from July 2015 to March 2016 in our hospital were analyzed retrospectively.During TEP,we added a 5-mm laparoscope for monitoring and exploration in the abdominal cavity.Results All the operations of TEP under two laparoscopes were successful.The operation time lasted 42-176 min with a mean of (74 ±27) min.The intraoperative blood loss was 5-30 ml with a mean of (12.8 ±5.9) ml.The length of postoperative hospital stay was 2-7 days with a mean of (4.0 ± 1.1) days.The percentage of postoperative complications was 11.8％ (6/51),including inguinal area seroma which accounted for 2.0％ (1/51),inguinal region pain accounting for 3.9％ (2/51),and postoperative urinary retention for 5.9％ (3/51).No infection was found.The follow-up period ranged from 3 to 11 months (mean,7 months),no recurrence was observed during this period.Conclusions TEP under two laparoscopes can treat inguinal hernia precisely.It is also helpful to find compound inguinal hernia and occult inguinal hernia.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics and the risk factors for chronic complications in hospitalized early-onset type 2 diabetic mellitus patients. Methods The clinical data of 462 hospitalized type 2 diabetic mellitus patients were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into early-onset group (age of diagnosis ≤40 years, 120 cases) and late-onset group (age of diagnosis>40 years, 342 cases) according to the age of diagnosis of diabetes. The clinical characteristics were compared and risk factors for chronic complications of early-onset type 2 diabetes were explored. Results The percentage of family history of diabetes, fasting plasma glucose, triglyceride and diastolic blood pressure in early-onset group were significantly higher than those in late-onset group:70.0％(84/120) vs. 52.3％(179/342), (8.68 ± 3.08) mmol/L vs. (8.07 ± 2.74) mmol/L, 1.69 (1.06, 2.92) mmol/L vs. 1.48 (1.07, 2.24) mmol/L and (84 ± 10) mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa) vs. (81 ± 10) mmHg, and there were statistical differences (P<0.01 or <0.05). The incidence of hypertension, systolic blood pressure and 2h C-peptide in early-onset group were significantly lower than those in late-onset group: 44.2％(53/120) vs. 60.2％ (206/342), (134 ± 17) mmHg vs. (138 ± 18) mmHg and (3.99 ± 2.47) μg/L vs. (4.75 ± 2.65) μg/L, and there were statistical differences (P<0.01 or < 0.05). There were no statistical differences in smoking percentage, body mass index, glycated hemoglobin, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) between 2 groups (P>0.05). The incidences of peripheral vasculopathy and cerebrovascular disease in early-onset group were significantly lower than those in late-onset group:13.3％(16/120) vs. 24.3％(83/342) and 11.7％(14/120) vs. 22.8％(78/342), but the incidence of diabetic nephropathy was significantly higher than that in late-onset group: 37.5％ (45/120) vs. 27.8％ (95/342), and there were statistical differences (P<0.05 or <0.01). There were no statistical differences in incidences of coronary heart disease, diabetic retinopathy and diabetic neuropathy between 2 groups (P>0.05). Multivariate Logistic stepwise regression analysis result showed that age, duration of diabetes, hypertension, smoking, levels of glycated hemoglobin and triglyceride were the risk factors for chronic complications in early-onset type 2 diabetic mellitus patients. Conclusions The clinical characteristics are different between early-onset and late-onset type 2 diabetic mellitus patients. Early-onset patients are more prone to diabetic nephropathy, while late-onset patients are prone to macrovascular diseases such as peripheral vascular disease and cerebrovascular disease. Comprehensive management should be administered for early-onset type 2 diabetic mellitus patients to prevent chronic complications especially microvascular complications.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of anti-nuclear antibody(ANA) and anti-nuclear antibody spectrum(ANAs) detection.Methods A total of 2 325 patients with or suspected with autoimmune diseases(AID) were enrolled and detected for ANA and ANAs by using indirect immunofluorescence assay(IIF) and linear immunoblot assay(LIA) respectively.All detected results were analyzed.Results Among 2 325 patients,896 cases(38.54%) were positive with ANA,with positive rate of 45.46% in female patients,which was higher than the 18.46% of male patients(P<0.05),and the common fluorescence patterns were nuclear particle pattern,nuclear homogeneous pattern and the nucleolus pattern.816 cases(35.10%) were positive with ANAs,and the positive rates of anti-Sjogren's syndrome(SS)-B antibody,anti Ro-52 antibody and anti SS-A antibody were relatively higher.The consistency rate of the two methods was 91.66%.Conclusion ANA and ANAs detection could be with certain correlation,but might be not completely consistent,detection could improve the detection rate and reduce the missed detection rate.
