Objective To evaluate the value of color Doppler flow imaging(CDFI) in the diagonosis of placental site trophoblastic tumor(PSTT). Methods After being examined by transvaginal CDFI, four of six patients underwent curettage and two of them had hysterectomy and attached by chemical treatment. All the patients were verified to have a PSTT by pathology. Results The image of PSTT in CDFI included different size at different site, low resistence index (RI) of vessel around the lesion, and absence of vessel in the lesion. Conclusions The characteristic image in CDFI is helpful to the diagnosis of PSTT.

Objective To survey the incidence, distribution, rehabilitation and participation in society of the intellectual disability in Hainan. Methods To analyze the data from the Second China National Sample Survey on Disability. Results Among 41214 people, 14075 live in city, 27139 in countryside. The incidence of intellectual disability was 4.3‰. There were significant difference among counties, villages and cities. The distribution of age were 17‰ in 0～6 years old, 6.3‰ in 7～13 years old, 2.3‰ in >14 years old. The ratio of mild to serious disability was 2.3∶1 in 0～6 y, and 1∶1.5 in >7 y. 6.6% sufferers had accepted medical treatment, 1.2% ones had accepted rehabilitation, 1.8% ones had accepted other social support, 82.4% ones had never be assisted. Conclusion The intellectual disability of 0～6 years children in Hainan is seriously. The rehabilitation and social support system should be improved.

Objective: To review the experience of one-stage surgical management of thoracic aortic aneurysm associated with coronary artery disease. Methods: From June 1999 to July 2002, fifteen patients (all the male, average age 57.21 year-old, ranged 40-66 year-old) underwent thoracic aortic aneurysm repair and concomitant coronary revascularization. The diagnosis are aortic root aneurysm in 5 cases,ascending aortic aneurysm in 2,arch aortic aneurysm in 3,and aortic dissecting in 5. 14 patients received operation through midsternotomy,including ascending aorta replacement in 2, Bentall technique in 4, David technique in 1 and total arch replacements in 3 patients. Left thoracotomy and off-pump CABG was done in 1 case. Results: 1 patient died in 30 days after operation. Followed up for a mean duration of 17 months,there were no late death and no reoperation and no related events occurred. Conclusion: Thoracic aortic replacement and CABG (coronary artery bypass grafting) could be done at one-stage. Concomitant coronary revascularization may aggressively obviate CAD events.

Objective To investigate ultrasonography imaging feature of intravenous leiomyomatosis (IVL).Methods Analysing 34 cases of IVL retrospectively,which had been treated and diagnosed in the hospital from Jan,1998 to Dec,2003.Results Among 34 cases,2 cases were diagnosed as IVL,20 cases were diagnosed as uterine leiomyoma or uterine leiomyoma with degeneration and 12 cases as uterine leiomyoma with adenomyosis.Conclusions Knowledge shortage on the clinical feature of IVL causes the low rate of accurate diagnosis of IVL by ultrasonography imaging.

AIM: To investigate the effect of tetrandrine (Tet) on proliferation of human pterygium fibroblasts (HPF) in vitro and to search for a new method to prevent the recurrence after pterygium surgery.METHODS: With different concentrations (0 to 160μmol/L) of Tet acting on HPF cultured in vitro, the impact was observed at 24, 48, 72 hours respectively after Tet intervention. The MTT method was used to assay the biologic activities of Tet and inhibitive rate of cell growth. The expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in each group was detected by immunohistoche-mistry before and after Tet intervention.RESULTS:With different concentrations of 20, 40, 80 and 160μmol/L and acting for 24 to 72 hours, Tet could inhibit the proliferation of HPF in a dose- and time-dependent manner (P<0.05). After the intervention of Tet, the expression of PCNA protein declined. When the concentration of Tet was in the range of 20 to 160μmol/L, it was able to inhibit the expression of PCNA in a concentration-dependent manner (P<0.05).CONCLUSION:Tet could significantly inhibit the proliferation of pterygium fibroblasts, and the inhibitive action was in a dose- and time-dependent manner within a certain range of concentration. But in high concen-tration (>160μmol/L), Tet would have cytotoxity.

MIC.RESULTS The bacteriostatic/bactericidal CFR of 0.5g q8h imipenem/cilastatin and 0.5g q8h meropenem were the highest(100%);that of 3.375g q4h sodium piperacillin/tazobactam sodium against ESBLs-producing E.coli was above 90%;the CFRs of ceftriaxone(1g q24h,2g q24h),ceftazidime(1g q8h,2g q8h),cefepime(1g q8h,1g q12h,2g q8h) and cefoperazone sodium/sulbactam(0.5g q8h,1g q8h,2g q8h) against ESBLs-producing strains were clearly less than those of non-ESBLs-producing ones,and the CFRs could not be effectively improved with the dose and frequency increased.CONCLUSIONS The PK/PD simulation is useful to optimize the regimen of anti-infective treatment,and guide its dosing accurately.

Objective By in vitro culture of mouse macrophage cell line RAW264. 7 and primary mouse bone marrow macrophages, the expression of Siglec-1 when stimulated by ox-LDL was observed. Meanwhile, Siglec-1 was up-regulated by M-CSF and down-regulated by small interference RNA targeting Siglec-1 ( si-RNA-Siglec-1) , and the expression of chemokines and lipid uptake ability by macrophages were observed, to explore the role of Siglec-1 on macrophages in atherosclerosis. Methods LDL was oxidized by copper. According to preliminary experiment results, ox-LDL 100 μg/ml was selected as a stimulus. There were 6 experimental groups:normal control group,ox-LDL 100 μg/ml group, ox-LDL 100 μg/ml + si-RNA 2509 2 ng/ml group,ox-LDL 100 μg/ml + si-RNA 3618 2 ng/ml group,ox-LDL 100 μg/ml + M-CSF 5 ng/ml group and ox-LDL 100 μg/ml + M-CSF 10 ng/ml group. si-RNA-Siglec-1 was transfected into macrophage to inhibit the expression of Siglec-1, whereas M-CSF 10 ng/ml or 5 ng/ml were added into the culture medium to enhance the expression of Siglec-1. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction ( qRT-PCR) was used to determine the interfere efficiency of si-RNA-Siglec-1 or M-CSF. After stimulation with ox-LDL for 48 h, cell culture supernatants were collected to determine MIP-1 alpha, MCP-1 and IL-8 concentration by ELISA (n =3 for each group) to evaluate the activation of macrophages. Internalization of lipid particles by macrophages was analyzed by oil red 0 staining. Results Observed by fluorescence microscope, si-RNA-Siglec-1 could be effectively transfected into macrophages with a transfection efficiency about 90% ;PCR results showed that si-RNA 2509 and si-RNA 3618 in a concentration of 40 pmol/L had an inhibition rate of 0. 54 ±0. 11 or 0. 52 ±0. 16 vs 1. 00 ±0. 24 (control group) , t =5. 227 and 4. 992, respectively, all P < 0.01, while M-CSF 10 ng/ml could increase Siglec-1 mRNA expression approximately 4-fold (4. 16 ± 1. 25 vs 1.00 ±0. 24, t =7. 448, P<0. 01). The secretion of MCP-1, MIP-1 alpha, and MIP-2 in si-RNA3618-Siglec-1 group [(359. 28±47. 80) pg/ml, (33. 76 ± 14. 28) ng/ml and (7.87±1.55) ng/ml for MCP-1,MIP-1 alpha, and MIP-2, respectively] was significantly reduced in compare with ox-LDL 100 μg/ml group [ (577. 89 ± 35. 95 ) pg/ml, (69. 17 ± 11. 82) ng/ml and (12.28 ± 1.19) ng/ml for MCP-1, MIP-1 alpha, and MIP-2, respectively], with P value of 0.01, 0.05 and 0.01. In contrary, ox-LDL 100 μg/ml plus M-CSF 10 ng/ml group could significantly promote macrophage chemokine secretion [ (672. 89 ± 43.80) pg/ml, (101.31 ±24.17) ng/ml and (14.81 ±0.54) ng/ml for MCP-1, MIP-1 alpha, and MIP-2, respectively], with P < 0.05 compared with ox-LDL 100 μg/ml group. Meanwhile, lipid intemalization and foam cell formation was inhibited in si-RNA3618-Siglec-l group while ox-LDL 100 μg/ml plus M-CSF 10 ng/ml group could enhance the phagocytosis of ox-LDL by macrophage. Conclusions Siglec-1 may served as a potential phagocytic receptor for ox-LDL involving in macrophage uptake of lipid and turn into foam cells. Furthermore, it can active macrophages and enhance the secretion of MIP-1 alpha, MCP-1 and IL-8, attracting more macrophages and lymphocytes to the site of inflammatory plaque. Targeted inhibition of Siglec-1 reduces macrophage uptake of lipid and secretion of chemokines. Siglec-1 may possibly serve as a potential target of treatment or delay the development of atherosclerosis.

The atrio-ventricular valves of the normal heart of 100 Chinese adult cadavers were studied. The right atrio-ventricular (tricuspid) valve was found to be composed of four main cusps in 80% of the cases,three main cusps in 19%,and two main cusps in 1%.In certain cases,small additional intermediate cusps had been found.They were derived from the main cusps and situated in the angles between the medial and anterior wall, or between the medial and posterior wall of the right ventricle.These may be called “cuspi accessoria”.The anterior accessory cusp was present in 31% and the posterior accessory cusp in 27% of our preparations.If the total number of the main and acces- sory cusps of the right a—v valve was considered,four cusps occurred in 42%,five in 36%,three in 13%,six in 8% and two in 1%. The left atrio-ventricular (mitral) valve consisted of two main cusps.But frequent- ly there were conspicuous ruptures on the posterior cusp in our specimens,with the ex- ception of twelve cases (12%).Thus,the posterior cusp may be consisted of one greater leaflet and one to four smaller leaflets.Based on this character,the posterior cusp of the left a—v valve may be grouped into three types:(1)the middle portion of the posterior cusp was well developed in 48%;(2)the antero-lateral portion was well developed in 35%;and (3) the postero-medial portion was well developed in 17%. The anterior cusp of the left a—v valve separated into two equal parts had been found in one case (1%). The height of the cusps and of the commissural margins,where the neighboring cusps were joined,had been measured.Discussions have been made on the principles of the differentiation between the main cusp and the accessory cusp.
