Survivin is the strongest member of the inhibitor of apoptosis protein(IAP)family. Smac is the second mitochondria-derived activator of cysteine proteases,which can promote apoptosis by combining with IAP. Abnormal expression of them is closely related with occurrence,development,treatment tolerance and prognosis of ovarian cancer. It is prompted that Survivin and Smac are expected to play important roles in the early diagnosis and targeted therapy of ovarian cancer.

This guideline was published by the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine,which has been developed to assist physicians performing sonographic studies of the brain in neonates and infants.Neurosonography should be performed only when there is a valid medical reason,and gain the necessary diagnostic information.Although it is not possible to detect every abnormality,adherence to the following guideline will maximize the detection of most abnormalities of the brain in neonates and infants that can be imaged with ultrasound.

Objective To investigate the clinical and pathological features of postmenopausal women with thickening endometrial. Methods Totally 187 patients with postmenopausal endometrial thickening by transvaginal B-ultrasound were divided into symptomatic group (n=104)and asymptomatic group (n=83).Their body mass index,age of menarche and menopause,history of menstruation and reproductive,application of estrogen,and hypertension and diabetes were collected.All the patients underwent hysteroscopy and biopsy procedures. Results There was no difference between two groups in body mass index [ (24.3 ± 3.2) kg/m2 vs.(23.3 ± 2.6) kg/m2,t =3.79,P =0.052]. The postmenopausal time of symptomatic patients in the group was shorter than the asymptomatic [ ( 14.6 ± 2.4) years vs.( 16.5 ± 2.9 ) years,t =4.12,P =0.039].The patients in the asymptomatic group were older than the patients in the symptomatic group [(68.1 ±4.8) years vs.(66.1± 5.5) years,F=3.89,P =0.046].The average endometrial thickness of patients in the asymptomatic group showed no difference compared with patients in the symptomatic group [(7.2 ±1.4) mm vs. (7.8 ± 2.0) mm,F=3.21,P=0.065]. There were 5 cases of endometrial adenocarcinoma,1 case of endometrial atypical hyperplasia,38 cases of endometrial polyp,25 cases of submucosal hysteromyoma,14 cases of proliferative phase endometrium in the asymptomatic group;while 8 cases of endometrial adenocarcinoma,1 case of endometrial stromal sarcoma,4 cases of endometrial serous papillary carcinoma,5 cases of endometrial atypical hyperplasia,47 cases of endometrial polyps,21 cases of submucosal hysteromyoma,2 cases of uterine empyema,8 cases of chronic inflammation of the endometrium, 8 cases of proliferative phase endometrium in the symptomatic group,respectively. Conclusions Most of endometrial thickness in postmenopausal women are benign lesions, mainly including endometrial polyps and submucous myoma, but endometrial cancer accounts for a certain percentage. Hysteroscopy is minimally invasive,safe and with specificity for the diagnosis and treatment of endometrial lesions.

Objective To investigate the Cardioprotective effects of sevoflurane postconditioning on surgery patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass with diabetes mellitus ,in order to provide theoretic basic for clinical practic. Methods 180 patients of undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass sugery were divided into 3 groups:A group:64 patients undergoing heart valve replacement with Type II diabetes. B group:64 patients Pa-tients undergoing heart valve replacement without diabetes ,the group A and B were treated by sevoflurane post-conditionging for 10 minutes before the end of cardiopulmonary bypass. C group:60 patients undergoing heart valve replacement without diabetes,no sevoflurane postconditionging;Three groups of patients detect perioperative tro-ponin T and Creatine Kinase Isoenzyme-MB ,observed and following up the occurrence of postoperative com-plications. Results CK-MB and cTnT were compared at 8 and 24 hours after operation:two biochemical indi-cators of group A and C at different time points after operation were significantly higher than those in group B (P < 0.05),With significant statistical difference , The number of patients with heart failure and malignant arrhythmia in group A and C was higher than group B(P < 0.05),Differences in 30 day mortality and other clinical data between the three groups were not statistically significant. Conclusion Sevoflurane postconditionging has significant myocardial protection effect for patients undergoing valve replacement surgery without diabetes , however ,the myocardial protective effect of patients who undergoing valve replacement surgery with diabetes was weakened.

Rheumatoid diseases (RD) are a group of diseases affecting bones,joints,and the surrounding soft tissues,such as muscle,synovial membrane,tendons,fascia,nervus.The etiology and pathogenesis are complicated.Since most RD are systemic diseases,traditional imaging techniques have limited value for the diagnosis and treatment monitoring of RD.18F-FDG PET/CT can display morphologic and metabolic information simultaneously,and is considered as a potential tool for the diagnosis of RD.This review summarizes the application of 18F-FDG PET/CT in RD,such as systemic vasculitis,relapsing polychondritis and rheumatoid arthritis.

Objective:To establish a Crownpak CR( +)-HPLC method for the determination of the content and related substance of valacyclovir hydrochloride dispersible tablets. Methods: A Crownpak CR( +) [4. 0 mm × 150 mm,5 μm,DAICEL CROWNPAK CR( +)] column was used,and the mobile phase was 0. 1% perchloric acid in water. The flow rate was 0. 75 ml·min-1 and the de-tection wavelength was 255 nm. Results: A good linear range of valacyclovir hydrochloride was 11. 25-180. 00 μg · ml-1 ( r =1. 000 0), and the average recovery was 99. 0%(RSD=0. 8%, n=9). A good linear range of alacyclovir was 0. 2-50μg·ml-1(r=1. 000 0), and the average recovery was 99. 3%(RSD=0. 6%, n=9). The content of the tablets from two pharmaceutical companies was 92. 7% and 97. 4%, respectively, that of acyclovir calculated by an external standard method was 0. 5% and 0. 4%, respectively, and that of D-valacyclovir calculated by a self-control method was 0. 9%. Conclusion:The method can effectively separate valacyclovir and D-valacyclovir, which is simple, accurate and reliable, and suitable for the quantity control of valacyclovir hydrochloride.

Objective: To construct the antheraea pernyi lysozyme(ApLZ) expression system using the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris, to assay the antibacterial activity of the recombinant ApLZ against Streptococcus mutans. Methods:The ApLZ expression system was used in the expression and purity of Ap-lysozyme. The antibacterial activity of the recombinant ApLZ against Streptococcus mutans were assayed by using agar diffusion method.

Background:In recent years,the incidence and mortality of colorectal carcinoma have been increasing rapidly. Diagnosing and treating cancer at gene level have become a new effective approach. Aims:To investigate the expression of S-phase kinase-associated protein 2(Skp2)and its relationship with vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)and tumor microvessel density(MVD)in colorectal carcinoma. Methods:Thirty-five colorectal carcinoma patients from March 2014 to March 2015 at People’s Hospital of Hubei University of Medicine were enrolled. Fifteen para-cancerous tissue samples were served as controls. The expressions of Skp2,VEGF and MVD value were determined by immunohistochemical SP, and their relationships with clinicopathological characteristics were analyzed. Results:The expression of Skp2 in colorectal carcinoma was significantly higher than that in para-cancerous tissue( P = 0. 000),and was correlated with tumor differentiation and lymph node metastasis(P < 0. 05),but not with gender,age and TNM stage(P > 0. 05). Expression of VEGF and MVD value were significantly higher than those in para-cancerous tissue(P = 0. 019,P = 0. 002),and were correlated with lymph node metastasis and TNM stage(P < 0. 05). Expression of Skp2 was positively correlated with the expression of VEGF and MVD value in colorectal carcinoma( r = 0. 569,P = 0. 000;r = 0. 481,P = 0. 017 ). Conclusions:The abnormal high expression of Skp2 is involved in the angiogenesis of colorectal carcinoma. Skp2,VEGF expressions and MVD value may be served as important markers for malignancy degree of colorectal carcinoma.
