Automated body fluid cytology analysis has been accepted by clinical laboratories gradually.The improvement of efficacy and analytical precision can overcome some defects of traditional manual method,such as time-consuming and poor repeatability.To make use of the advantages of automated fluid cell analysis technology,the automated method and microscopic method must be combined by setting review rules.Meanwhile,more attentions must be paied to sample collection and specimen preservation at pre-analytical stage,verification of instrument performance at analytical stage and necessary clinical communication at post-analytical stage.Only if a complete system of quality management,standardization of procedures,result validation and interpretation is implemented in the routine work,the clinical significance of body fluid cytological analysis can be recognized in clinical practice.

Objective To study the effect of simvastatin(SV) on NF-kappa B p65 expression in liver of insulin resistant rats. Methods Male Wistar rats were divided into two groups:basic chow(NC,n=15)or high-fat diet(HF,n=20)for 10 weeks feeding, then assessed by euglycemic-hyperinsulinemia clamp technique. Rats in HF group were treated with(HFS,n=5)and without (HFN,n=5) SV 10mgkg-1d-1 in gavage for 5 weeks.NF-kappa B p65 expressions were tested with Western blot. Results The glucose infusion rate (GIR) in HF group decreased significantly compared with NC group (P

Objective To approach the efficacy and safety of arotinolol in treating essential hypertension.Methods The studies about arotinolol in treating essential hypertension were accessed by searching the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials(Issue 3,2008),MEDLINE(1991 to March 2009),EMbase(1991 to March 2009),CBMdisc(1991 to March 2009),and CNKI(1994 to March 2009).The relevant journals and conference proceedings also hand searched.Randomized controlled trials(RCTs) in which arotinolol was used to treat patients with essential hypertension were collected.Then the retrieved studies according to predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria were screened,the quality of included studies was evaluated,and Meta analysis was performed by using RevMan 4.2 software.Results A total of 176 articles were found and 6 of which were finally included.In homogeneity test:?2=4.41,df=7,P=0.73(efficacy);?2=2.96,df=4,P=0.56(safety).In combined test,Z=0.64(P=0.52),OR=1.17,OR95%CI(0.72-1.85)(efficacy);Z=1.75(P=0.08),OR=0.60,OR95%CI(0.34-1.06)(safety).Conclusion There is no significant difference in efficacy and safety between arotinolol and control group in treating essential hypertension.

Objective To study the association of the serum soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1(SICAM-1) and soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1(SVCAM-1) with metabolic syndrome(MS) and its components. Methods The MS was defined by criteria of the international diabetes federation. The levels of SICAM-1 ,SVCAM-1,plasma glucose,insulin,lipids,uric acid, glycosylated haemoglobin A(1C), and blood viscosity were measured. Results The concentrations of SICAM-1 and SVCAM-1 were significantly higher in subjects with MS and its components than in those without them. The concentrations of SICAM-1 and SVCAM-1 were correlated positively with disorder number of BMI, WHR, SBP, DBP,FPG, 2 hour plasma glucose, triglyceride, uric acid, HbA1c, blood viscosity and HOMA-IR,and negatively with high density lipoprotein cholesterol. Conclusions The concentrations of SICAM-1 and SVCAM-1 rise with the increase of the number of MS components. Endothelial dysfunction might participate in the occurrence and development of MS.

Objective To study the relationship between overweight, obesity and blood pressure among children living in urban Beijing. Methods A total of 4 267 pupils aged 9～10 years were randomly selected. Overweight and obesity were defined by age and sex specific BMI classification reference for Chinese children. Hypertension was defined by age, sex and height specific reference for US children. Results The prevalence of overweight and obesity in boys was 19.4% and 21.2%, in girls was 10.9% and 12.1%, respectively. Mean levels of systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) have significant different between all study group. The total prevalence of high blood pressure (HBP) was 16.1% for boys and 15.2% for girls, while it was 36.4% and 41.3% among obese boys and girls, respectively. The prevalence of high systolic blood pressure (HSBP), high diastolic blood pressure (HDBP)and HBP gradually increased as weight increased. Compared with the normal weight group, OR(95%CI) for HBP of overweight and obese children were 2.6 (2.1～3.3) and 5.8 (4.7～7.0), respectively. Conclusion Obesity is positive correlation with hypertension in children aged 9～10years of Beijing, and the risk of hypertension was increased with their body weight.

In order to investigate the nutritional composition of the diet taken by diabetic patients during treatment, a dietary survey of 256 outpatients with diabetes mellitus at 4 hospitals in Beijing was completed in 1980. The results of this survey may be used as a reference in designing the reasonable diets for Chinese patients of diabetes mellitus.

Objective To investigate the difference of serum high sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP)concentrations in subjects with various glucose tolerances,and to analyze the correlation with insulin resistance.Methods A total of 90 subjects,who came from the Medical Examination Center of the First Hospital Affiliated to China Medical University from Oct.2004 to Apr.2005,were divided into five groups according to oral glucose tolerance test(OGTT):normal glucose tolerance(NGT)group;impaired fasting glucose(IFG)group;impaired glucose tolerance(IGT)group;IFG and IGT(IGT/IFG)group;newly diagnosed,complication-free type 2 diabetes(T2DM)group.By using the ELISA methods,the concentration of serum high sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP)was measured in these subjects,and its correlation with homeostasis model assessment insulin resistance index(HOMA-IR)was andlysed.Results The concentration of hs-CRP was significantly higher in IFG,IFG/IGT,T2DM than in NGT.The concentration of hs-CRP was positively correlated with glucose metabolism index and insulin resistance index.Conclusion Our study demonstrates that inflammation already exists not only in T2DM patients but also in subjects with IFG.Inflammation might participate in the occurance and development of T2DM.

AIM:To investigate the role of miR-125b in regulating the sensitivity of CD133+ colorectal cancer cells to cisplatin.METHODS:The expression of miR-125b was detected by RT-qPCR in the routine SW480 cells and CD133+ SW480 cells.Flow cytometry analysis was performed to measure the percentage of CD133+ cell population in the SW480 cell line treated with miR-125b and cisplatin.MTT assay was performed to evaluate the effect of miR-125b on the cisplatin-induced cell death in the CD133+ SW480 cells.Bioinformatics and Western blot were performed to determine whether the expression of HAX-1 was regulated by miR-125b.JC-1 staining, Annexin V staining and Western blot analysis were used to study the pathway of apoptosis in the CD133+ SW480 cells co-treated with miR-125b and cisplatin.RESULTS:The expression of miR-125b was significantly lower in the CD133+ SW480 cells than that in the routine SW480 cells and normal colonic epithelial FHC cells.Treatment with cisplatin alone increased the percentage of CD133+ SW480 cell population.However, miR-125b significantly inhibited the enrichment of CD133+ cell population induced by cisplatin.In addition, the results of MTT assay showed that the anti-tumor effect of cisplatin was significantly enhanced when the miR-125b was transfected into the CD133+ SW480 cells.The results of Western blot indicated that the HAX-1 gene was the target of miR-125b.Furthermore, the apoptosis induced by the combination of miR-125b and cisplatin was dependent on the dysfunction of mitochondrial membrane, leading to the release of cytochrome C into the cytoplasm and the subsequently activation of apoptosis in the CD133+ SW480 cells.CONCLUSION:miR-125b increased the sensitivity of CD133+ colo-rectal cancer cells to cisplatin by down-regulating the expression of HAX-1.
