1.DNA methylation in pancreatic carcinogenesis
Cancer Research and Clinic 2013;(2):133-135
Pancreatic cancer is one of the most malignant gastrointestinal tumors,characterized by a poor prognosis,absence of specific clinical symptoms and signs,prone to metastases and lack of response to conventional therapy.1 year survival rate of this disease increased to about 20 % by gemcitabine,but the morbidity and mortality rates are still higher and higher in the whole worldwide.DNA methylation is one of the mechanisms of epigenetics which is the study of heritable changes in gene expression that are not coded in the DNA sequence itself.It seems that DNA methylation indeed plays an important role in the development and progression of pancreatic cancer.
2.Progress of indicators in the diagnosis of neonatal sepsis
International Journal of Pediatrics 2013;(2):148-151
Newborns,especially premature newborns,because of immature of immune function,have high incidence of sepsis.Today sepsis is still an important cause of neonatal death and poor prognosis.Unfortunately,clinical signs of sepsis are non-specific,so early diagnosis and treatment of the newborn infant with suspected sepsis are essential to prevent severe complications.Blood culture is the gold standard for diagnosis of sepsis,but the positive rote is low.Indicators in diagnosis of sepsis included acute phase reaction proteins,cytokines,cell surface antigen and bacterial DNA testing.This article compares and analyzes the indicators in diagnosis of neonatal sepsis.
4.Roles of connexin in breast cancer
Journal of International Oncology 2014;41(4):273-276
The previous studies identify connexin as a tumor suppressor gene,which inhibits the occurrence and development of breast cancer.However,some researches of resent years demonstrate that the expression level of connexin in a large part of metastatic breast cancer is elevated and connexin may promote breast cancer metastasis.Therefore,connexin may play different roles by different mechanisms in the occurrence,development,invasion and metastasis of breast cancer.Rational use of connexin in breast cancer treatment can be beneficial to breast cancer patients.
5.Analysis on blood test result of voluntary blood donors in Fuling District during the past seven years
International Journal of Laboratory Medicine 2008;29(6):498-500
Objective To get the information about the infection condition of blood in voluntary donors in Fuling District from 2001 to 2007, so as to take measures to improve blood quality and ensure blood safety.Methods Serum ALT was detected with Reitman-Frankel assay, and HBsAg, anti-HCV, anti-HIV and anti-TP were detected with ELISA.Results A total of 72 868 serum samples from blood donors were detected, in which 5 512 (7.56%) were positive. The positive rates of HBsAg, anti-HCV, anti-HIV and anti-TP were 3.09%, 0.48%, 0.07% and 1.27% respectively, and the abnormality rate of ALT was 2.73%. There was statistical difference of positive rate among various years (from 2001 to 2007).Conclusion The positive rate of blood in voluntary donors decreases year by year. HBsAg was the highest (1.16%), followed by ALT (2.73%), anti-TP (1.27%), anti-HCV and anti-HIV. It suggests that blood quality monitoring should be strengthed to assure blood safety.

Chinese Journal of Infection Control 2014;(4):218-221
Objective To realize the clinical and epidemiological characteristics of measles,and explore effective measures to control measles epidemic.Methods Clinical data of 554 hospitalized measles children between January 2009 and December 2013 were analyzed retrospectively.Results All children had fever,cough,and skin rash,507 (91.52% )had typical clinical manifestations of measles,47(8.48% )had mild manifestations;the major population were children aged≤6 months(n= 176,31.77% )and 7-8 months (n= 346,62.45% );132 (23.83% )children had contact history of confirmed measles,19(3.43% )measles children’s mothers also developed measles (all were cases of 2013),227 (40.97% )children had history of repeated infusion or hospitalization in large medical institutes dur-ing the measles incubation period (all were cases of 2013,there were measles children who had infusion or hospitali-zation in the same hospital during the same period). The peak incidence of measles usually occurs in January-May. Conclusion Intensive immunization of measles for young women of reproductive age and vaccination with“pre-mea-sles vaccine”for early infancy,and strengthening the medical management of fever outpatients are important meas-ures to prevent measles epidemic.
7.Hotspots and frontiers in papers on medical information system from 2010 to 2014
Chinese Journal of Medical Library and Information Science 2015;(9):31-36
Papers on medical information system published in 16 medical journals in 2013 JCR with their IF≥1 were retrieved from Web of Science(2010-2014).Social network analysis and co-word analysis of their high fre-quency key words showed that efficiency of medical information system implementation, acceptance behaviors of medical information system users, mining of medical data, application of medical information system in medical sci-ences, and application of decision support system in medical sciences were the hotspots in papers on medical infor-mation system.The authors pointed out that electronic health records, medical information system management, and application of emerging information technology in medical information system were still the study hotspots in the coming years.

To observe the effects of Danshen on the growth of hepatocellular carcinoma in the SD rats, a model of malignant obstructive jaundice was established by inoculation of transplanted tumor into the hepatic portal with the walker-256 hepatocarcine line, which resulted in the obstruction by the infiltration and metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma. SD rats were divided into 4 groups: the rats were treated by 0.9 % NS (n=24, control group), inosine+vitamin C (n=40, InV group), Danshen (n=40, DS group) and 5-FU (n=40, 5-FU group), respectively. The liver function, morphological changes and the expressions of PCNA, VEGF and ICAM-1 in carcinoma foci, peri-carcinoma tissues, adjacent lobe (left-internal lobe) and lung tissues were observed after the treatment with the 4 agents. Our results showed that the protective effect of Danshen on liver function was significantly better than that of NS and 5-FU (P<0.01). No significant difference in protective effect was observed between DS group and InV group (P>0.05). Danshen also provided protective effect on the morphological damage of liver caused by obstructive jaundice. The rates of carcinoma-inhibition and metastasis inhibition were significantly higher than those of NS and inosine+vitamin C (P<0.01). No significant difference in this regard existed between DS group and 5-FU group (P>0.05). The expressions of PCNA,VEGF and ICAM-1 PCNA, VEGF and ICAM-1 in carcinoma foci, peri-carcinoma tissues, adjacent lobe (left-internal lobe) and lung tissues were lower than those in control group and InV group, with the differences being significant (P<0.01). No significant differences were found between DS group and 5-FU group in the expression levels of PCNA and VEGF (P>0.05) but ICAM-1 (P<0.05). It is concluded that Danshen injection not only has protective effects on liver injury caused by obstructive jaundice, but can inhibit the proliferation and growth of hepatocarcinoma, interfere with the vascularization of tumors, prevent recurrence and metastasis of hepatocarcineoma.
10.Comparison of the effect of ectopic pregnancy tubal resection or retention on female endocrine
Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2016;23(21):3318-3320
Objective To investigate the effect of ectopic pregnancy tubal resection or common disease retention on female reproductive endocrine and menstrual traits.Methods 286 patients with ectopic pregnancy lapa-roscopic operation were selected.According to the different treatment methods,the patients were divided into resection group (n =199),retention group 87 cases,in surgical operation on the third day and the thirtieth day and tested for female reproductive hormone (P,LH,FSH,E2 )and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG).Results Resection group in the third day after surgery of FSH[(8.5 ±4.9)IU /mL]was significantly higher than that of preserving group[(3.9 ± 0.9)IU /mL],with significant difference (t =5.44,P <0.05),the amounts of LH,E2 ,P and HCG were insignificant (t =0.56,1.24,0.82,all P >0.05).30 days after the surgery,there was no significant difference between the two groups in FSH,LH,E2 ,P and HCG (t =0.92,0.77,1.02,0.65,all P >0.05),but at the age of more than 40 years old and bilateral absence of fallopian tube in patients with,menorrhagia and menstrual cycle change obviously,and female ovarian endocrine function to reduce the clinical symptoms.Conclusion Tube resection has some influence on the ovarian function of tubal ectopic pregnancy,especially older,lack of bilateral fallopian tube.
