Objective To explore different pathogenesis of chronic hepatitis B(CHB)and asymptomatic H BV carriers(ASCs)by identifying differentially expressed genes.Methods Subtracted library was constructed by suppression subtraetive hybridization(SSH),and α-defensin was identified by dot blot hybridization.Peripheral blood was collected from 46 CHB patients and 11 ASCs.and the expressions of α-defensin mRNA in peripheral blood mononuclear cell and protein in plasma were determined by the real time RT-PCR and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Results Real time RT-PCR showed that the expression of α-defensin mRNA in blood samples of CHB was 1.4-fold higher than that of ASCs.As shown by ELISA,the plasma level of α-defensin in CHB was higher than that of ASCs [(216.40±81.25)μg/L vs.(156.00±57.26)μg/L,t=2.23,P<0.05].Conclusion α-defensin may involve in the pathogenesis of CHB,for it iS over-expressed in CHB patients.

BACKGROUND:Domestic scholars use the potentiodynamic polarization technique to determine the corrosion potential of the dental aloys, which is used to evaluate the corrosion performance of the lownoble metal. They have discovered that the main reason affecting corrosion resistance is the content of noble metal. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the corrosion resistance of Ti, Au aloy, Co-Cr aloy, Ti aloy, and Ni-Cr aloy. METHODS: Five aloys were immersed in synthetic saliva solution. The corrosion potential and corrosion current density of the aloys were determined with potentiadynamic polarization technique. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The galvanic series of five kinds of aloys were ranged as folows: Au aloy > pure Ti > Ti aloy > Co-Cr aloy > Ni-Cr aloy. Au aloy and pure Ti had more positive potential that were not easy to produce corrosion; Ti aloy and Co-Cr aloy could form stable oxidation film with a strong ability of anti-pitting and crevice corrosion; Ni-Cr aloy potential was more negative and easy to be dissolved. The corrosion current density of five kinds of aloys was ranged as folows: Au aloy < pure Ti < Ti aloy < Co-Cr aloy < Ni-Cr aloy. Au aloy and pure Ti had lowest current density which was 10-8, indicating that the corrosion rate of Au aloy and pure Ti was lower; in contrast, Ni-Cr aloy possessed the maximum corrosion rate. These findings indicate that Au aloy and pure Ti exhibit a very high corrosion resistance. The corrosion rate of Ni-Cr aloy is the highest; therefore, Ni-Cr aloy is the least acceptable material for implant suprastucture.

Sixty cases of acute lumbar sprain were treated by puncturing Yintang(Ex-HN 3) toward Shenting(GV 24), among which, 50 cases were cured, 9 were improved and only one failed, and the total effective rate was 98.3%.

Objective To explore the relationship between epilepsy and stroke,the features of secondary epilepsy and its treatment. Methods 233 stroke patients were observed and the clinical data of 21 patients who had secondary epilepsy were analyzed. Results Secondary epilepsy after stroke was mainly seen in the cortical stoke patients, the incidence of epilepsy of the cortical stroke group was 16.7% , which was significantly higher than that of the gubcortical stroke patients(5.7% ) ,and there was significant difference between the two groups. The incidence of epilepsy of stroke with a lesion >4cm group was 17. 3% .which was significantly higher than that of stroke with a lesion <4cm group(5.4% ), there was also significant difference between the two groups. There was no significant difference between ischeraic stroke and hemorrhagic stroke(P>0.05). Conclusion The incidence of secondary epilepsy after stroke had no correlations with the stroke types,but was related to the area and the location of the stroke.

The application of the Six Sigma working methods is introduced in the use and maintenance of monitor.By using Six Sigma working methods,the needs of clients are researched,and improved method are put forward.A solution to lower the failure rate of monitor is suggested,and the various causes are analyzed.By the comparison between the fore-and-aft situations,desired effect is obtained with improved work efficiency and better economic and social benefits.

Infant functional constipation is one of the common clinical symptoms in infancy stage,so far we do not have a specific diagnostic criteria and treatment for infant functional constipation.In this paper,we reviewed the diagnostic methods,clinical evaluation,differential diagnosis,and treatment recommendations according to recent research results for infant functional constipation.

Hypospadias repair is highly challenging especially for those severe or cripple variants.Correction via single stage or staged repair is controvercial whereas the controversies are with different content with advancement of hypospadiology.Here the authors introduce the contemporary concepts of staged repair for hypospadias.
