With the progress of human civilization,the harmonious development of society is gradually realized by different researchers.Medicine,as a science directly serving humans,emphasizes more on humanism than other sciences.Medical research is not only characterized by scientificity and innovativeness,but also by ethicality.More and more biomedical journals are paying attention to issues of ethics.This review discussed the ethical issues in academic medical writing based on the Uniform Requirements for Manuscripts Submitted to Biomedical Journals published by International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE) and the discussions by Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).

Objective To evaluate the effect of permanent right ventricular apical (RVA) pacing in different cumulative percent of right ventricular pacing( CUM% VP) on the heart function and cardiac ventricle structure in subjects with normal basic heart function. Methods Patients who had implanted pacemaker when heart function was still normal were recruited in the study while they revisited for replacement or examinations of implanted pacemaker at outpatient. According to different CUM% VP, patients were divided into group A ( CUM% VP≥85% ,n =78) and group B( CUM% VP≤40% ,n =63) . The primary composite endpoint was defined as new-onset heart failure, death, left ventricular ( LV ) dysfunction and remodeling. The occurrence of endpoints were compared between the two groups. The left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and interventricular septum(IVS) were measured through baseline and follow-up, their absolute alterations ( △ LVEF, △ LVEDD and △ IVS ) were observed. Results The mean duration of two assessment was 7.4 years in group A and 7.7 years in group B, respectively. Before pacemaker implantation,there were no differences in age, sex, basic diseases, cardiac function and constituent ratio of pacemakers between the two groups. By comparing the outcomes of group A with those of group B at the end of follow up, we found that: △ LVEDD in group A was significantly larger than that in group B ( [3. 8 ± 0. 5] mm vs [1.4 ± 0. 4] mm,t = 4. 540,P ＜ 0. 01 ), △ LVEF was ( - 6.5 ± 1.2) % and ( - 3.3 ± 1.0) % in group A and B, respectively,with significant difference between the two groups(t = 2. 578 ,P ＜0. 01 ). There were no significant difference in AIVS between the two groups. No death occurred in both group at the end of follow up. The incidence of LV dysfunction and remodeling was 25.6% (20/78) in group A,which was significantly higher than that of 6.3% (4/63) in group B( x2 =9. 183 ,P =0. 002). and the incidence of new-onset heart failure was 10. 3% (8/78)in group A,which was significantly higher than that of 1.6% (1/63) in group B (x2 =4.383,P =0.036).Conclusion Among patients with normal basic LV function who underwent permanent RVA pacing,there are potential risk in developing LV remodel, function damage and heart failure. The risk increases with the pacing time getting longer and CUM% VP getting higher.

Objective To analyze the pathological significance of CK5 expression in primary cutaneous amyloidosis(PCA).Methods The expression of CK5 in superficial dermis of PCA group and the control group[lichen planus(LP),lupus erythematosus(LE)]were detected by CK5 monoclonal antibody.The infiltration densities of CD3-positive T lymphocytes and CD68-positive macrophages in superficial dermis of PCA and control group were measured respectively by immunohistochemical staining using anti-CD3 antibodies and anti-CD68 antibodies.The skin lesions of PCA and control groups were analyzed by immunofluorescence to detect whether CK5 was phagocytosed by macrophages in superficial dermis.Results Totally,39 cases of PCA all were CK5-positive.Some control cases were positive.The number of CD3-positive T lymphocytes and CD68-positive macrophages in 8 cases of PCA group was lower than that of control group.The result of immunofluorescence colocalization of monoclonal anti-CK5 antibodies and anti-CD68 antibodies in 5 cases of PCA lesions was negative;that in 2 cases of LE lesions were both positive,and that in 2 cases of LP lesions were both negative.Conclusion Amyloid protein may be derived from the basal keratinocytes after interface damage.The amyloid protein deposits may be related to the number decrease or the functional defect of macrophages.

Objective:To investigate the psychosocial characteristics of the perpetrators and the victims of spouse violence (SV).Methods:80 families with a history of SV were randomly selected from communities, and their psychosocial characteristics were compared with control group of 96 non-SV families matched for family structure. A self-designed SV questionnaire, the self-report Symptom Checklist-90 (SCL-90), Eysenck's Personality Questionnaire (EPQ), Trait Coping Style and Questionnaire (TCSQ) were used in this cross-sectional survey.Results:65 husbands and 15 wives were identified as perpetrators, correspondingly 65 wives and 15 husbands as victims. The total score and factors scores of SCL-90, EPQ-N score, and scores of subjective social support, objective support and total supports were higher in perpetrators than their counterparts in control group. Negative coping style and EPQ-P score were respectively higher and lower in perpetrators than victims of SV (29.6?8.3/29.5?7.4,t=2.127, P

Objective: To prepare ibuprofen dispersible tablet and compare its pharmacokinetics and bioavailability with market tablets in rabbits. Methods: According to inspection of factors and orthogonal design, optimal formulation was decided. A randomized crossover and self control design was used. Eight healthy rabbits were single oral dosed with 100 mg ibuprofen dispersible tablet or market tablet, respectively. The plasma drug concentration was determined by HPLC method. The pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated by 3P87 program and the bioequivalence was assessed by NDST5.0 program. Results: A one compartment open model was adopted and the pharmacokinetic parameters of dispersible tablet and market tablet were as follows: c max were (9.79?2.25) and (4.54?1.50) ?g/ml; t max were (0.27?0.07) and (2.03?0.53) h; t 1/2 were (6.65? 2.14) and (9.17?4.38) h; AUC 0~∞ were (94.11?28.38) and (65.20?18.38) ?g?h?ml -1 , respectively. Ralative bioavailability of the dispersible tablet was 164.11% compared to market tablet. Conclusion: Ibuprofen dispersible tablet is administrated easily and absorbed quickly, and its bioavailability is far more better than the market one. [

Aim To investigate the effects of gastrin-17 on NF-κB signaling pathway in human colon cancer cells-Colo320WT.Methods All subjects were divided into four groups: control, gastrin-17,gastrin-17+L365,260 (gastrin-17 receptor blocker) and L365,260 group.Concerning gastrin-17 group,Colo320WT cells were treated by gastrin-17 for 12 h.Concerning gastrin-17+L360,265 group, Colo320WT cells were pretreated by L365,260 for 30 min and then were treated by gastrin-17 for 12 h.Concerning L365,260 group,Colo320WT cells were pretreated by L365,260 for 30 min.NF-κB DNA binding activity was determined by electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA). Expressions of uPA protein and mRNA were assayed by Western blot and RT-PCR, respectively.Results NF-κB DNA binding activity increased more greatly in the Colo320WT cells stimulated by gastrin than that of the control group. And the expressions of uPA protein and mRNA were up-regulated more markedly than those of the control group. The above responses resulting from gastrin-17 were partly blocked by gastrin-17 receptor blocker, L365,260.Conclusion Gastrin-17 may activate NF-κB signaling pathway in human colonic cancer cells Colo320WT.

Objective To investigate the pathological features of gastro-esophageal high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia (HGIEN) confirmed by biopsy and to compare the differences of its diagnosis after endoscopic resection. Methods Data of 147 patients with gastro-esophageal HGIEN confirmed by biopsy, who underwent EMR or ESD in recent 4 years were analyzed for the pathological findings of pre- and post- procedures. Results Among 147 cases of HGIEN diagnosed by endoscopic biopsy, 106 lesions were in esophagus and 41 in stomach. After endoscopic resection, intraepithelial neoplasia was confirmed in 97 (66%), and cancer was diagnosed in 50 (34%), of which submucosal layer was involved in 11. There were 34 cases of adenocarcinoma and 16 squamous cell carcinomas, in which 22 cases (44%) were poorly or moderately differentiated. Conclusion More than one third cases of biopsy diagnosed HGIEN are confirmed to be carcinoma after endoscopic resection, which needs active therapeutic measures.

Objective To study the of effets of hFRNK gene transfected by adenoviral vector on human colon cancer cell invasion induced by gastfin.Methods The subjects were divided into three groups:control,G17 and hFRNK group.The G17 group was treated with 100 umol/L gastrin 17 for 12 h to induce Col0320WT cells.As to hFRNK group,Colo320WT cells were infected by pAdhFRNK(MOI:100)for 48 h after transient transfection of pCR3.1-CAR for 48 h and subsequently treated with gastrinl7 for 12 h,and the control group was untreated Colo320WT cells.Expression of phosphorylated FAK(PY397)were assayed by western blot.FAK(PY397)at lamellipoda was observed with a confocal microscope.The influence of hFRNK on formation of signal complex of FAK-Src-p130Cas-Dockl80 was assayed with coimnlunoprecipitation and immunity blotting.Activity of Rac-GTPase was determined by pull down.Results Phosphorylated FAKTyr397 drastically increased with the induction of gastrin.Compared with that of G17 group,FAK (PY397)expression decreased and little FAK(PY397)was found at lamellipoda,at the same time,the signal complex of FAK-Src-p130Cas-Dockl80 did not form,and the activity of Rac decreased.Conclusion hFRNK gene may block gastrin-induced FAK phosphorylation,prevent formation of the signal complex,prevention and treatment of tumor invasion and metastasis.
