Methods: 12 portal hypertension patients with post- hepatitis cirrhosis underwent PTVE and PSE. Their averge age is 51.7 years old.Result :The operation of all patients were successful. The free pressure of portal vein decreased 3.75 mmHg averagely after operation. The patients were followed up for 2～6 monthes. There wasno recurrence of esophageal variceal bleeding. The symptoms of hypersplenism were relived. Conclusion:We considered some segments could help the operation successful:the psychological nursing before operation, the relieving pain, stopping hemorrhage, relieving vomit, sedation and carefully observing patients in the operation,systemic antibiotic dropping, noticing complication appearing and so on after operation

Objective To study the toxic effects of Rotenone on glutamate transporter and glutamine synthetase in rat brain.Methods The glutamate levels in the striatum of SD rats were detected by high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC),the expression of glutamate tansporter mRNA and proteins were detected by RT-PCR and Western blotting and the activity of glutamine synthetase was determined by using GS detect kit.Results Rotenone was shown to increase the release of glutamate in rat striatum,the expression of glutamate/aspartate transporter(GLAST)mRNA and protein decreased significantly in 0.6 mg/kg and 1.2 mg/kg Rotenone intoxicated groups,but the expression of GLT-1 and the activity of GS enhanced obviously.Conclusion Down-regulation of GLAST may be responsible for increased Glu level in rat brain induced by Rotenone,but the increased expression of GLT-1 and GS activity may represent a protective mechanism of the brain cells by limiting the neurotoxicity of Glu.

Objective To study the practicality and repeatability of B-mode ultrasonography on diagnosis and score of carotid atherosclerosis. Methods Ninety-nine B-mode ultrasonography pictures of carotid atherosclerosis were obtained from field investigation. According to the established standard(normal scored as 0, other scored as 1 - 7 by the severity), the 99 pictures were diagnosed and scored once together by three trained inexperienced members of the research team. Ten days later, these pictures were diagnosed and scored respectively, by the three members.The diagnostic results were analyzed with statistical methods to test the feasibility and repeatability of this set of diagnostic and scoring system. Results The joint diagnostic results by the three group members were regard as standard with scores 0 in 27 cases, 1 in 27 cases, 2 in 10 cases, 3 in 4 cases, 4 in 13 cases, 5 in 8 cases, 6 in 6 cases, and 7 in 4 cases. Independent diagnostic results by member A was 0 in 29 cases, 1 in 24 cases, 2 in 11 cases, 3 in 2 cases, 4 in 12 cases, 5 in 11 cases, 6 in 6 cases, and 7 in 4 cases. Independent diagnostic results by member B was 0 in 29 cases, 1 in 22 cases, 2 in 14 cases, 3 in 4 cases, 4 in 13 cases, 5 in 5 cases, 6 in 8 cases, and 7 in 4 cases. Independent diagnostic results by member C was 0 in 28 cases, 1 in 25 cases, 2 in 8 cases, 3 in 5 cases, 4 in 14 cases, 5 in 10 cases, 6 in 4 cases, and 7 in 5 cases. Comparison of the 4 diagnostic scores, the difference was not statistically significant(F = 0.019, P ＞ 0.05). Joint diagnostic results of the three members were compared with the standard and correlation coefficient were 0.977,0.987,0.932, respectively(all P ＜ 0.01 ). The correlation coefficient of diagnostic results of each member were 0.969,0.935,0.928, respectively (all P ＜0.01 ). Diagnostic results of each member were consistent with the standard and the compliance rate were 88.9% (88/99) ,90.9%(90/99) and 86.9%(86/99), respectively. Conclusions B-mode ultrasonography is a non-injure method for diagnosis of carotid atherosclerosis in epidemiology investigation. The method is easy to grasp and has a good repeatability.

AIM: To investigate the change of corrected vision and stereo vision in anisometropic patients after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK).METHODS: The clinical data of 84 cases of anisometropic children(84 eyes) were retrospective analyzed.The changes of corrected visual acuity and stereopsis of different gender,age,type of amblyopia in children anisometropic before treatment,after treatment for 3,6mo and 1a were analyzed.The stereoscopic vision correction correlation were analyzed.RESULTS: Corrected Log MAR visual acuity and stereopsis of 84 patients after LASIK surgery treatment for 3mo,and 1a later significantly decreased than before treatment (P<0.05).The corrected Log MAR visual acuity and stereopsis of male and female after treatment for 3,6mo and 1a was not statistically significant (P>0.05).Corrected visual acuity of age <30 group for 3,6mo and 1a was significantly lower than the age ≥30 group (P<0.05).After 3,6mo and 1a stereo vision with hyperopic anisometropia amblyopia decreased more than that with myopic anisometropia amblyopia(P<0.05),but corrected Log MAR visual acuity after treatment was no statistically significant difference (P>0.05).Improved correctted vision of anisometropic patients after LASIK surgery had no connection with the decrease of stereo vision(P>0.05).CONCLUSION: LASIK surgery can improve visual acuity in patients with anisometropia amblyopia,but the course of treatment of visual acuity and stereopsis affected by age and type of amblyopia.

Objective To study the level and structure of intelligence in children with benign epilepsy of childhood with centrotemporal spikes(BECT)and investigate factors affecting their intelligence.Methods Congitive skills such as intelligence quotient(IQ),phonological test and morphological test,were evaluated in 47 children with BECT,and the results were compared to a control group of 30 children matched for gender,age,level of education and family background.The effects of age of onset,disease course,seizure frequency,seizure type,location of spike,and spike and wave index(SWI)on the level and structure of intelligence were also analyzed.Results The total IQ score was slightly lower in children with BECT(104.20±12.34)when compared to the control group of normal children(109.45±15.01),but the difference was not significant.There was no difference in performance IQ scores between BECT and normal children.BECT children had a lower verbal IQ score(90.67±18.40)when compared to the control group(98.17±13.18,t=3.431.P<0.05).Analyses of verbal subtests revealed significant differences between BECT and normal children in vocabulary and similarities(5.97±2.95 vs 8.51±3.67 and 4.85±3.02 vs 6.95±3.07,respectively,t value were 2.365 and 2.096,both P<0.05).The differences between BECT and normal children were also significant in phonological test and morphological test (12.56±2.3 vs 16.78±3.72 and 22.35±3.25 vs 24.15±5.28,respectively,t=2.478 and 2.770,both P<0.05).SWI was negatively correlated with verbal IQ,vocabulary,similarities,phonological test and morphological test(r=-0.305--0.838,P<0.05).Age of onset,disease course and seizure frequency were not correlated with verbal IQ,phonological test and morphological test.The level of intelligence was not different among children with left hemispheric foci,fight hemispheric foci or bilateral foci.The level of intelligence Was similar between children with partial seizures or secondarily generalized seizures.Conclusions Children with BECT have normal level of intelligence,but the structure of intelligence is abnormal with retardation of their language ability.SWI affects the language ability in children with BECT,but age of onset,seizure type and location of spike do not influence their language ability.

Objective To investigate the renal expression of stem cell factor (SCF) in lupus nephritis (LN) and its correlation with disease activity and renal injury parameters. Methods Histochemical stain was used to examine all renal specimens (LN group n=34, chronic glomerulonephritis n=16, control group n=8). Hyhridization in situ and immunohistochemistry were used to detect the expression of SCF and infiltration of mast cells, macrophages , α-SMA (+) cells in renal tissues of the two groups. SPS software was used for tissue of the control group. However, they increased markedly in lupus nephritis and CGN (t=6.03～14.25, P< 0.01). But there was no significant difference between LN and CGN in SCF and mast cells in renal interstitium. Positive correlation was observed among the expression of SCF and α-SMA and the number of mast cells and macrophages (r=0.47～0.84, P<0.01) at their corresponding locations. The expression of SCF and ot-SMA and the number of macruphages were positively correlated with renal pathological active index, chronic index, albuminuria and the injury of renal interstitium (r=0.34～0.93, P<0.05 or 0.01); meanwhile, it was negatively correlated with Ccr(r=-0.39～0.61, P<0.01). There was significant correlation between SCF, macrophages and anti-dsDNA antibody, complement C3 level, SLE disease activity index (SLEDAI). The number of mast cells in renal interstitium was positively correlated with chronic indexes and the injury of renal interstitium (r=-0.86, r=0.93, P<0.01) and negatively correlated with Ccr (r=-0.56, P<0.01), but not correlated with active index and albuminuria (r=0.27, r=0.23, P>0.05). Conclusion The expression of SCF is widespread in kidney, and it is markedly eorrelated with various kinds of inflammatory cells, renal inherent cells, renal function, and urine protein levels. SCF may be an critical participant in the initiation and progression of renal injuries in human lupus nephritis.

Objective:To investigate the role of TRPV5 and TRPV6 in intracellular calcium regulation and biological behaviors of SW480 colon cancer cells. Methods:qRT-PCR, Western blot, and immunocytochemistry were applied to determine the mRNA and protein ex-pression levels of TRPV5 and TRPV6 in SW480 colon cancer cell line upon treatment with TRPV5 and TRPV6 agonist, 1-25(OH)2D3, and inhibitor, CuCl2. The change of intracellular Ca2+level was examined with a confocal laser scanning microscope. Scratch test, MTT, and TUNEL assays were used to analyze the cell migration, proliferation, and apoptosis, respectively. Results:As an agonist of TRPV5 and TRPV6, 1-25(OH)2D3 significantly up-regulated the mRNA and protein expression levels of TRPV5 and TRPV6 in SW480 cell lines. On the other hand, CuCl2, being an inhibitor of TRPV5 and TRPV6, effectively down-regulated the TRPV5 and TRPV6 mRNA and protein expres-sion levels (P<0.05). The intracellular calcium concentration in SW480 cell line significantly increased upon treatment with 1-25 (OH)2D3, and significantly decreased with CuCl2 treatment (P<0.05). 1-25(OH)2D3 promoted cell proliferation and migration, and inhibit-ed apoptosis of SW480 cell in a time-and dose-dependent manner (P<0.05). However, CuCl2 significantly repressed cell proliferation and migration and induced apoptosis (P<0.05). Conclusion: TRPV5 and TRPV6 can affect the biological behaviors of colon cancer SW480 cells by regulating intracellular Ca2+level.

(A.) maxima (S_(3)) as well is made with colorimetric method. The results show that activity of GO (25℃, pH 8.0) of S_(1), S_(2 )and S_(3) is 70.9 U/gFW, 59.6 U/gFW and 80.9 U/gFW respectively; the GO's optimum temperature of S_(1)、S_(2) and S_(3 )is 30℃; the GO's optimum pH value of S_(1 )is 8.6,while that of S_(2 ) 8.2 and that of S_(3) 8.4; the GO of S_(1 )is stable from 0℃ to 35℃ and from pH 7.6 to pH 10.0, while that of S_(2) from 0℃ to 30℃ and from pH 8.0 to pH 9.0 and that of S_(3) from 0℃ to 35℃ and from pH 8.0 to pH 8.6. Adaptive range of S_(1) GO for temperature and pH is wider, and activity at low and high temperature and under strong acidand alkali conditions is higher than that of the imported species.

Bacillus cereus B-04 antagonist to Botrytis cinerea were isolated from samples of tomato soil infected by Botrytis cinerea in Zibo, which are identified through a series of morphological and biochemical characteristics and the sequence of 16SrDNA. Aiming at enhancing the inhibitory effect of this strain, a 4.1kb DNA fragment containing ?-1,3-glucanases gene from pUC1940 was inserted into vector pBE2 and pHY300PLK to construct recombination plasmids, PBE2-glu and pHY300PLK-glu, which were transferred into Bacillus cereus B-04, resulting in a new strain named B-04-glu. Restriction enzyme digestion and ?-1,3-glucanases plate culture confirmed that B-04-glu contained a functional ?-1,3-glucanases gene. Compared to the wild strain B-04, B-04-glu had an increased inhibitory effect against Botrytis cinerea on tomato.

Objective To understand the status of Toxoplasma gondii(TOX)infection in pregnant women in Qingdao area. Methods Antibody capture ELISA was used to detect the TOX-IgM,IgG and TOX-DNA in 1 341 pregnant women and 201 infer-tility,miscarriage,stillbirth pregnant women from June 2011 to July 2013. Results Among 201 abnormal pregnant women,43 cases were TOX antibody positive,accounting for 22.39%,and among the normal pregnant women,84 cases were TOX antibody positive,accounting for 6.26%,and there was a significant difference(χ2 =10.60,P<0.05). The TOX positive rate of 20-29 years old women was higher than that of the women aged over 30 years(χ2=21.9,P<0.05). The TOX antibody positive rates of families with pets and families without pets were 26.63%and 8.77%respectively(χ2=10.93,P<0.05). The TOX antibody posi-tive rates were 10.94%(22/201)in unemployed women,3.98%(8/201)in farmers,3.98%(8/201)in staff,and 3.48%(7/201)in workers. Conclusions The TOX infection rate in abnormal pregnant women is significantly higher than that in normal pregnancy women;therefore,the health education should be strengthened. In addition,in young women,especially 20-29 years old women, and some special occupation women,the control measures should be enhanced.
