Objective To explore the value of electroneurophysiological detection in diagnosis of children progressive muscular dystrophy (PMD).Methods The clinical features and laboratory data were analyzed in 32 children with PMD ,and electromyography(EMG) and nerve conduction velocity(NCV) were performed.Parameters studied included spontaneous activity , duration and amplitude of motor unit potential(MUP),pattern of recruitment as strong contracting,sensory conduction velocity(SCV),motor conduction velocity(MCV), distal latency and distal amplitude. Results The abnormality rates of spontaneous potentials was 49.2% and 80.9% in tibialis anterior.The decrease of duration of MUP was 29.7%-62.4%.Amplitude of strong contracting was significantly decreased.There were different from those in normal children(P

Objective To study the individualized dose of warfarin in treating atrial fibrillation in elderly patients. Methods Forty-one elderly in-patients with atrial fibrillation were recruited.Warfarin was used tO start anti-coagulation therapy with the target INR value 1.6-2.5.The data of demographic variables,concomitant diseases,medications and laboratory values were collected,then correlated these factors with the maintenance dose of warfarin. Results Warfarin dose requirements were significantly associated with age(r=-0.535,P＜0.01),sex(r=-0.494,P＜0.01),height (r=0.484,P＜0.01),weight(r=0.453,P＜0.01),body surface area(r=0.388,P＜0.05),concomitant use of a sulfonylurea medication(r=-0.446,P＜0.01)and serum albumin level(r=0.520,P＜0.01).The multivariate regression model includedthe variables of age,sex,serum albumin level and concomitant use of a sulfonylurea medication.This algorithm explained 65.4%of the variance in the maintenance dose of warfarin(R=0.808,R2=65.4%). Conclusions The warfarin dose in treating atrial fibrillation in elderly patients can be estimated from demographic,clinical and laboratory factors that can be obtained at the time of warfarin initiation.

Acupuncture clinical trials are designed to provide reliable evidence of clinical efficacy, and SCI papers is one of the high-quality clinical efficacy of acupuncture research. To analyze these papers published in high impact factor journals on acupuncture clinical trials, we can study clinical trials from design to implementation, the efficacy of prevention and cure, combined with international standard practices to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of acupuncture. That is the core of acupuncture clinical trials, as well as a prerequisite for outstanding academic output. A scientific and complete acupuncture clinical trial should be topically novel, designed innovative, logically clear, linguistically refining, and the most important point lies in a great discovery and solving the pragmatic problem. All of these are critical points of papers to be published in high impact factor journal, and directly affect international evaluation and promotion of acupuncture.

BACKGROUND: Human granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (hGM-CSF) is a kind of cytokine which can stimulate the differentiation and proliferation of haematopoictic precursor cells and plays an important role in the process of immunoloregulation. Escherichia coli (E.coli) expression system has advantages,such as low cost and high output, over other systems.Therefore, E.coli is still the most commonly used exogenous gene expression system.OBJECTIVE: To observe the expression of hGM-CSF in the E.coli swain DH5α.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: The present observational experiment was performed at the Central Laboratory of Biotechnology Research,China Three Gorges University between February and June 2007. MATERIALS: Plasmid pBR322hGM-CSF was purchased from American Type Culture Collection, USA.hGM-CSF antibody was sourced from Sigma Company, USA.IPTG, X-gal,and vector pMGT-18 were purchased from Shanghai Bioengineering Technology Company, China. METHODS: Primer was designed according to hGM-CSF gene. Taking cloning vector plasmid pBR322-hGM-CSF as template, hGM-CSF gene was acquired and recombined into prokaryotic expression vector pGEX-4T-1. Recombinant plasmid confirmed by enzyme digestion and sequencing was transformed into E.coli strain DH5α and induced by isopropy-β-D-thiogalactoside (IPTG). Expression product was identified by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electropheresis (SDS-PAGE) and detected by Western blotting assay. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: hGM-CSF expression in the E.coli strain DH5α. RESULTS: SDS-PAGE results revealed that the recombinant hGM-CSF protein with relative molecular weight of 40 500 was produced up to approximately 17.9% of total protein. Western blotting detection results indicated that there was a 40 500 bp brand. CONCLUSION: The present study reconstructed prokaryotic expression vector pGEX-hGM-CSF, induced its expression in the E.coli strain DH5α, and obtained hGM-CSF fusion protein.

Objective To investigate parenteral nutrition and enteral nutrition therapy for esophageal cancer patients nutritional status improvement.Methods Totally 63 patients with esophageal cancer were chosen,preoperative Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS2002) nutritional screening through joint after parenteral nutrition and enteral nutrition therapy.Patients with intestinal tolerability and complications after surgery on days 1 and 7 days nutrition indicators were observed,including total serum protein,albumin,prealbumin,hemoglobin,and lymphocyte count.Results Preoperative risk malnutrition occurred in 39 patients.Compared to patients on day 1 after the first 7 days,serum levels had no significant difference in total protein.Albumin,prealbumin,hemoglobin,and lymphocyte counts were significantly different statistical significance (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions NRS2002 for nutritional screening patients at risk of malnutrition can be determined,and the combined parenteral and enteral nutrition therapies can improve nutritional status of patients with esophageal cancer.
