Objective To investigate the myocardial protective effect of isehemic post-conditioning in total repair for tetralogy of fallot,in order to improve short-term prognosis of infant patients.Methods 64 cases of TOF infant patients were randomly divided into two groups,32 cases in the control group:conventional surgery without ischemic post-conditioning,and other 32 cases in the experimental group:given three cycles of ischemic post-conditioning.Then the clinical indieators:cardiopulmonary bypass time,aortic cross-clamping time,automatic re-jump rate,the latter parallel to the off-line time,the off-line blood pressure,the offline dopamine usage,extubation time,ICU stay time,postoperative complications,and the testing laboratory indicators:the cTnI and CK-MB levels in plasma after anesthesia induction,10min after aortic cross-clamping,10min after aortic opening,ICU1h,1d after surgery,and 2d after surgery were observed.Results Two patients were died and,mortality rate was 3.1%.The remaining patients were discharged from hospital.Laboratory indicators of the control group and the experimental group had significant differences (all P<0.05),while the clinical indicators of the two groups had no significant differences(all P>0.05).But for the sub-group which the aortic cross-clamping time were more than 60min,the clinical indicators were significantly different(all P<0.05).Conclusion Ischemic post-conditioning could enhance myocardial protection in total repair for tetralogy,of fallot.for the cases aortic cross-clamping time was more than 60min,their clinical meanings were more obvious.

Objective To investigate the influence of hypoxia on leptin expression in serum,CSF and brain tissue of C57BL/6J mice.Methods C57BL/6J mice were divided into 3 groups:the normal control,24-hour hypoxia group and 48-hour hypoxia group.The latter two groups exposed to hypoxia in the man-made auto pressure and hypoxia control cabin(XQ-I).Radioimmunoassay was used to detect the leptin level.Results The leptin level in the serum,CSF and brain tissue of mice exposed to hypoxia were higher than that of normal control,but no difference was found between 24-hour hypoxia group and 48-hour hypoxia group.Conclusion Hypoxia probably induces the increasing of leptin expression in fat tissue,as well as in the central nervous system.

Objective Protein N-SRCR derived from salivary agglutinin (SAG) inhibits HIV-1 infection.An N-SRCR monoclonal antibody was prepared for the study of the interaction between N-SRCR and HIV-1 envelop glycoprotein (gp120).Methods The purified recombinant N-SRCR expressed by 293 cells was used to immunize four weeks old BALB/c mice.After the final boost,the mouse spleen cells were isolated and fused with mouse myeloma cell line SP2/0-Ag-14,and the resulting hybridomas were screened for the production of N-SRCR-specific antibodies by ELISA assay.The monoclonal antibody against N-SRCR was purified by HiTrap Protein G kit,the purity determined by SDS-PAGE and the antibody titers by ELISA.The antibody specificity.was charqacterized by western blotting.Results A strain of hybridoma cell clones stably secreting N-SRCR antibody,named 1D6,was obtained.The high purity of the IgG was demonstrated by SDS-PAGE,and the ELISA titers of 1D6 was more than 100?25.Conclusion A monoclonal antibody against N-SRCR was successfully prepared,which laid the ground for further studies on the biological function of N-SRCR and the interactions between SRCR domains and HIV-1 Env gp120.

BacKground:Fanconi anemia( FA)pathway as a DNA crossIink damage repair pathway pIays an important roIe in maintaining genome stabiIity. In recent years,FA pathway was wideIy studied in DNA damage and cancer pathogenesis. Aims:To investigate the interaction between RAD18 and FANCD2 protein in human coIorectaI cancer ceII Iine SW480. Methods:Antigen-antibody compIex was co-precipitated by immunoprecipitation. Expressions of rabbit anti-human FANCD2 and RAD18 protein in antigen-antibody compIexes were detected by Western bIotting. The pIasmids of GST-RAD18 and GST were transferred into BL21 ceIIs and induced to express the target proteins. TotaI proteins of the ceII was extracted and GST-beads were used to conjugate the GST-RAD18 protein,and then incubated with the SW480 ceII Iysates, and Western bIotting was performed with the addition of rabbit anti-human FANCD2 antibodies. Results:RAD18 protein was detected in the antigen-antibody compIex from immunoprecipitation by using anti-FANCD2 antibody,and FANCD2 protein was detected by using anti-RAD18 antibody. FANCD2 protein was aIso detected by using anti-GST-RAD18 antibody. GST-RAD18 protein used as bait protein couId capture the FANCD2 protein in SW480 ceIIs. Conclusions:There is an interaction between RAD18 and FANCD2 protein in SW480 ceIIs,and aIso an interaction between GST-RAD18 and FANCD2 protein.

Objective To investigate the current status of endemic fluorosis in Shandong province, and to provide scientific evidence for the development of control strategies. Methods According to "The National Technical Scheme for Endemic Disease Control in 2007", 19 counties were chosen to carry out the epidemiological investigation in 2008. Water and urinary fluoride were determined by F-ion selective electrode, dental fluorosis of children aged 8 to 12 were diagnosed by Dean method and skeletal fluorosis of adults over the age of 16 were examined clinically and by X-rays. Results In 19 counties, 186 villages were surveyed, 44 villages were found with mean water fluoride ≤ 1.00 mg/L, accounting for 23.66%(44/186);the value > 1.00 mg/L in 142 villages,accounting for 76.34% (142/186);maximum water fluoride 8.88 mg/L. Total detection rate of dental fluorosis of children aged 8 to 12 was 66.35% (4518/6809), dental fluorosis index was 1.55, and defect rate was 15.39%(1048/6809). Children with urinary fluoride > 1.40 mg/L was 83.29%(2149/2580), and the maximum value was 31.92 mg/L. Detection rates of skeletal fluorosis clinically and by X ray among adults over 16 years were 6.37%(5577/87 607) and 20.23% (229/1132), respectively. Conclusions Endemic fluorosis in Shandong province is still serious, prevention efforts need to be further increased.

OBJECTIVETo observe the clinical effect and safety of circumcision stapler in the treatment of phimosis and redundant prepuce.
METHODSWe treated 120 patients with redundant prepuce or phimosis using circumcision stapler and another 60 by conventional dorsal-incision circumcision. We observed intraoperative blood loss, operation time, postoperative pain, wound healing time, cosmetic appearance of the penis, and postoperative complications and compared them between the two groups of patients.
RESULTSStapler circumcision showed obvious advantages over the conventional method in intraoperative blood loss ([2. 3 ± 1. 3] vs [15.6 ± 2.9] ml), operation time ([7.1 ± 1.4] vs [22.6 ± 4.6] min), wound healing time ([12.0 ± 2.9] as [16.3 ± 3. 1] d), postoperative pain score (1. 9 ± 1. 3 vs 5. 2 ± 1. 7), incision edema, and cosmetic appearance of the penis (all P <0. 05). Besides, stapler circumcision exempted the patients from stitch-removal pain. However, the incidence rate of postoperative local ecchymosis was significantly higher in the circumcision stapler group than in the conventional circumcision group (20. 8% vs 8. 3% , P <0. 05).
CONCLUSIONCircumcision stapler, with its advantages of easier manipulation, shorter operation time, better cosmetic penile appearance, less pain, and fewer complications, is superior to conventional circumcision in the treatment of phimosis and redundant prepuce.
