Objective　To study the effects of glucose and lipid metabolism on gallstone formation. Methods　Twenty five patients with gallstones and 25 normal volunteer controls were studied from January to April in 1998. The patients were well matched the control with sex and age (1∶1). In the study, Body Mass Index (BMI) and Waist-to-Hip circumference ratio (W/H) were measured. Blood glucose, glucosylated hemoglobin (HbA1C), insulin, C peptide and all parameters of lipids were detected at fasting state. The glucose,insulin, C peptide were detected again at 2-hour after taking 75g glucose orally. Results　The result showed there was no difference on BMI and W/H between the patients and controls. HbA1C、mean fasting and 2-hour glucose concentration were not in significantly different between the two groups (P>0.05, P>0.2, P>0.1 respectively). There were 10 patients with abnormal glucose metabolism (7 with NIDDM, 3 with IGT), but only 4 controls were abnoumal (one with NIDDM, three with IGT). The difference was significant (P<0.05). Furthermore, the mean fasting and 2-hour insulin concentration of gallstone group was higher than that of the control (P<0.02, P<0.05). And the gallstone group had a higher fasting C peptide concentration than control (P<0.05). There was no statistical difference on the parameters of plasma lipid between the tow groups. Conclusion　The study suggests that diabetes mellious and hyperinsulinemia acted as an important role on gallstone formation.

Aim To observe the effect of recombinant human interferon and verazole used alone or in combination in resisting respiratory synthesis virus (RSV) in vitro. Methods RSV strains were proliferated with Hela cells in Eagles solution on a 96 hole plate. The recombinant human interferon and virazole were diluted to different concentrations and were separately added in the dose of 100 ?l to each hole of the plate. After 48 hours cultured, the concentrations of the drugs for inhibiting cytopathogenic effect(CPE)of RSV were determined. Results When the concentration of interferon was ≥5 U?ml -1 and virazlole ≥24 ?g?ml -1 ,respectively,the effect of the two drugs on inhibiting the CPE of RSV was remarkable and was improved with their concentration increasing .When the concentrations of the two drugs were lower than that of their effect respectively , their united use also had obvious effect in resisting the virus. In addition, the different using methods of interferon have also different results. Conclusion Both recombinant human interferon and virazole are effective in inhibiting RSV in vitro and will bring about better effect when used in combination.

Objectives To investigate fluoride in drinking waters and fluorosis status and evaluate the effectiveness of fluoride-reducing projects in Shaanxi Province from 2005 to 2007. Methods In the Shaanxi province-wide, the 10 endemic areas of fluorosis were chosen according to historical data as focusing areas for investigation. The village was considered as investigation spot, 5 water samples were collected from each village for investigating of fluoride content. Four water samples were collected from each fluoride-reducing project for evaluating its effectiveness. Fluoride concentrations in drinking water were measured by fluoride-selective electrode method or speetrophotometry. When fluoride content in drinking water was greater than 1.00 mg/L, the epidemical study wasd conducted to investigate fluorosis patients, focusing on investigating of dental fluorosis prevalence in 8 to 12-year-old children and skeletal fluorosis prevalence in adults. Dental fluorosis of children was diagnosed by using Dean's method, and adult skeletal fluorosis was diagnosed according to National Standard for Clinical Diagnosis of Endemic Skeletal Fiuorosis(GB 16396-1996). Results The fluoride content in drinking water from 6390 villages was measured. The fluoride content of drinking water of 2619 villages ranged from 1.0 to<2.0 mg/L, where 1 654 998 people exposed. Additionally, the fluoride content of water of 845 villages ranged from 2.0 to<4.0 mg/L, where 355 623 people exposed. Moreover, the fluoride contents of water of 272 villages exceeded 4.0 mg/L, where 111 466 people exposed. The median of fluoride content in drinking water was 1.15% in the whole province, and fluoride content in drinking water exceeded 1.00 mg/L in Weinan, Xianyang and Yulin where were concentrated distribution areas of high fluoride water. Among 3115 fluoride-reducing projects, the fluoride content of drinking water of 1269 projects ranged from 1.0 to<2.0 mg/L, where 1 415 877 people exposed. Additionally, the fluoride content of drinking water of 120 projects ranged from 2.0 to<4.0 mg/L, where 43 888 people exposed. Moreover, the fluoride content of drinking water of 14 projects exceeded 4.0 mg/L, where 5960 people exposed. The detectable rate of dental fluorosis of 8 to 12 year-old children and skeletal fluorosis of adults reached 37.4%(16 489/44 081) and 5.1%(15 877/310 993), respectively. Conclusions The widely distribution of high-fluoride in drinking water still contributes to the prevalence of fluorosis in Shaanxi Province. The quality of fluoride-reducing projects should be further improved.

Pancreatic acinar cells synthesize pancreatic lipase related protein 1 (PLRPl), which has a high degree of sequence and structural homology with pancreatic triglyceride lipase (PTL). PTL is required for efficient dietary triglyceride digestion, while the physiological role of PLRPl has not been elucidated, although some investigations have shown that its expression level is changed under some physiological or pathological conditions. Specific antigenic peptides were fused to glutathione S-transferase (GST) and purified recombinant fusion protein was used to generate polyclonal antisera by immunization of rabbits. The antisera could detect the antigen as low as 0.6 ng and PLRPI protein in 3 μg of mouse pancreatic juice extracts. The high specificity was verified in Western blot and immunohistochemistry analysis by using PLRPl knockout (KO) mice as the control. Furthermore, it was showed that food intake could increase the exocrine secretion of PLRPl into pancreatic juice. This implied that PLRPl may fulfill dietary digestion function in the digestion track.

Objective To investigate the neural mechanism of inhibitory control in sensation seeking by using the event-related potential(ERP) technique. Methods High and low sensation seekers( 16 people in each group ), who were selected according to their sensation seeking scores, performed a Go/Nogo task in which the stimuli possessed two levels of difficulty. Electro- encephalogram(EEG) signals were recorded continuously by a set of 32 Ag/AgCI electrodes. Results For two types of stimuli ( Congruent, Incongruent) :( 1 )The amplitude(FCZ) of Nogo N2 and Nogo P3 were( (1.61 ±4.25)μV,(-2.32±4.55)μV)and((16.44±5.74)μV,(17.00±5.71)μV). (2)There was no significant main effects of group for the Nogo N2 amplitude( F (1.30) =0.31, P=0. 59,η2=0. 01;F(1.30) =0.07,P=0.80,η2=0.002) ,the N2d amplitude( F(1.30) =1.18,P=0.29,η2=0.04;F(1.30) =0.004, P=0.95, η2 ＜ 0.001 ) ,the Nogo P3 amplitude( F (1.30) =0.13, P=0.72, η2 =0.004;F(1.30)=0.28, P=0.60, η2 =0.009) and the P3d amplitude( F(1.30) =0.08, P=0.50, η2 =0.02; F (1.30) =0.56,P=0.46, η2 =0.02). (3)Neither of main effects for the N2 and P3 latency was significant (P＞0.05). Conclusion The inhibitory control is similar across high and low sensation seeking groups,indicating that there is no relationship between the sensation seeking behaviors and the individual inhibitory control.

Objective To evaluate arthroscopic PCL (posterior cruciate ligament) reconstruction with an implant fixaliun of hamstring tendon knot and bottle-neck technique.Methods Thirteen cases with PCL injury were treated with arthroscopic PCL reconstruction with an implant fixation of hamstring tendon knot and bottle-neck technique between April,2002 to June,2005.The patients were followed up fur at least seven months to evaluate the clinical effects by means of ROM of the joint,post drawer test,Lachman test,Lysholm and IKDC (International Knee Documents Committee) scores.Results The patients were followed up for an average of 13.4 months.No limitation of knee extension was found six months after operation.Eleven patients had normal knee flexion(＞140?), one had knee flexion of 120?and one 100?.In posterior drawer test,11 patients were gradeⅠand two gradeⅡ.In Lachman test,11 patients were rated as within gradeⅠand two gradeⅡ.By Lysholm knee function scale,the average knee scores were 90.47?4.13 and 78.82?2.46 respectively before and after operation,and the dif- ference was of statistical significance (t=2.416,P=0.029).By IKDC scale,six were grade A,five grade B and one grade C.Conclusion Arthroseopic PCL reconstruction with an implant fixation of hamstring tendon knot and bottle-neck technique is a reliable method to restore knee function and will have a prospect of wide application be- cause of its good tissue biocompatibility,less invasion,and less operative expenditure.

Purpose:To evaluate the physical dose distributions and tolerance in locally recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma treated with intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT).Methods:From June 1999 to August 2000, 10 patients with locally recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma proven by histology, without neck lymphoid node recurrence and distant metastasis, were treated by IMRT. The interval from the time of initial radiotherapy to recurrence ranged from 14—50(median 25) months. The initial radiotherapy in all patients were treated with external radiotherapy alone to a median dose of 69Gy/35fractions/52days. IMRT method was performed by means of the MIMiC collimator and inverse treatment planning system (NOMOS company, USA). The prescribed dose of re radiotherapy to target volume was 57Gy/19fractions/4weeks.Results:All patients, except for some patients with mild weight loss and reaction in the oral cavity during radiotherapy, tolerated this IMRT well. IMRT achieved the better immediate responses in 10 patients with complete response in 6 cases and partial response in 4 cases. Recurrence was found in two patients, lung distant metastasis in one patient. The median survival in the 10 patients was 14 months. The median planning target volume (PTV) was 95.8(60—134) cm 3. The dose distributions in the PTV were as follows: median average dose 59.65?2.47Gy, median homogeneity index (HI): 1.18(?0.06); median dose to 95% PTV ≥ 53.2 (?1.36)Gy. The median dose to the organs at risk (OAR) were as follows: spinal cord 9.46?5.23Gy; brain stem 20.24?3.55Gy; left parotid gland 18.53?5.30Gy, right parotid gland 19.68?6.21Gy; left lens 2.11?0.65Gy, right lens 2.94?0.57Gy;Chiasm12.34Gy; left optical nerve13.14 Gy, right optical nerve17.65 Gy.Conclusions:Better dose distributions treated with IMRT was achieved in the patients with locally recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma and the patients tolerated this radiotherapy well.
