Objective To investigate static closure functional characteristics of lower urinary tract in continence in late pregnancy of primigravida through perineal ultrasound and urodynamieal measurement. Methods From January of 2003 to December of 2005,83 primigravida undergoing antenatal health care in Shanghai Jiaotong University Affiliated Shanghai Sixth People's Hospital were randomly enrolled in the study, while 28 nulliparous women were recruited as control.The perineal ultrasound and urodynamical measurement were performed at the gestation age of 36-40 weeks,in both groups.We analysed the parameters of lower urinary tract function in late pregnancy compared with nullipara,such as maximal urethral closure pressure(MUCP),functional urethral length(FUL),maximal urethral pressure(MUP), valsalva leak point pressure(VLPP),postvoid residual bladder volume(PVRBV)and volume of first desire to voiding(VFDV).Results The average weight of 83 neonates was(3504?404)g.In all of 83 primigravida PVRBV was less than l0 ml.MUP(110 + 22)cm H_2O(1 cm H_2O=0.098 kPa),MUCP (96?22)cm H_2O and FUL(44?9)mm were significantly increased in the third trimester compared with nullipara(P0.05). There were 33 pregnant women suffering from urinary leakage throughout the terms.The data showed that MUCP was significantly lower in the pregnant women with symptoms of leaking than without leaking. Conclusion The static closure function increased significantly compared with nulliparous women.The VLPP was decreased and had relationship with symptoms of leakage.The results suggest that the function of lower urinary tract in continence in late pregnancy of primigravida is complex.

AIM: To establish a quantitative method of determining thymol and carvacrol in Shushi Ganmao Ling(dripping pill)(Herba Moslae,Herba Artemisiae Annuae,Radix Scutellariae,etc.). METHODS: The GC method was used with HP-17 quartz capillary column(HP 50% PhMe Silicone,10 m?0.25 mm?0.25 ?m).The initial temperature of chromatographic column was at 130 ℃ for 14 min,then elevated to 220 ℃ with the rate of 20 ℃/min,and retention for 36 min. RESULTS: The linearities of thymol and carvacrol were respective in the range of 12.51 ?g/mL-125.1 ?g/mL(r=0.999 8) and 21.52 ?g/mL~215.2 ?g/mL(r=0.999 7).The average recoveries were 97.9%(RSD was 1.69%) and 100.6%(RSD was 2.27%).RSD of repeatability were 1.88% and 1.60%,respectively. CONCLUSION: The method is reliable,accurate and specific.It can be used for quality control of Shushi Ganmao Ling(dripping Pill).

Objective To analyses the CT misdiagnostic causes of gallbladder carcinoma, in order to improve the diagnostic rate.Methods Fourty-three patients with the gallbladder carcinoma proved histologically were examined by computed tomography (CT), twenty-three of them were misdiagnosed.The misdiagnostic causes were analysed and compared CT images with operation.Results In the cases of misdiagnosis they were diagnosed as acute or chronic cholecystitis in 5; polyp in 1; bile duct carcinoma in porta hepatis in 2; cholangiocarcinoma in 1; neoplasm of distal part of common bile duct or ampulla in 3; carcinoma of head of pancreas in 5;cholangitis in 1; jaundice of obstruction in 2;tumefaction of gallbladder in 2;carcinoma of colon in 1. Conclusion To be aware of CT characters of gallbladder carcinoma and the way of metastasis is useful to avoid misdiagnosis of the gallbladder carcinoma and to improve the diagnostic rate.

we first find that the protoplast of Xanthomonas campestris can synthesize and secret Xanthan in the high permeable nutrition containing sucrose as substrate.

Objective To evaluate the effects of sevoflurane on invasion and migration of mouse lung cancer cells induced by hypoxia.Methods Mouse Lewis lung cancer cells were inoculated in the culture plate.After being cultured for 24 h,the cells were randomly divided into 3 groups (n=18 each) using a random number table:control group (group C),hypoxia group (group H) and hypoxia+ 2％ sevoflurane group (group HS).Cells were exposed to 95％ air-5％CO2 (2 L/min) for 4 h in group C.Cells were exposed to 94％ N2-5％CO2-1％ O2 for 4 h in group H.In group HS,cells were exposed to 2％ sevoflurane and 94％ N2 (2 L/min) for 4 h.The invasion of cells was determined by Transwell assay,and the invaded cells were counted.The migration of cells was evaluated by wound healing assay,and cell migration rates were calculated.The expression of Beclin 1 and LC3 Ⅱ protein in cells was detected by Western blot.Results Compared with group C,the number of invaded cells and cell migration rates were significantly increased,and the expression of Beclin Ⅰ and LC3 Ⅱ was up-regulated in H and HS groups.Compared with group H,the number of invaded cells and cell migration rates were significantly decreased,and the expression of Beclin 1 and LC3 Ⅱ was down-regulated in group HS.Conclusion Sevoflurane can inhibit the invasion and migration of mouse lung cancer cells induced by hypoxia,and inhibition of autophagy is involved in the mechanism.

A mixed bacteria culture F6 isolated from oil field wastewater can degrade petroleum hydrocarbons efficiently. The bacteria were suitable to treat oil-polluted wastewater of oil field. Simulated result treating oil-polluted wastewater in laboratory showed that after "XingyiLian" wastewater of Liaohe Oil Field was treated by fluidized-bed bioreactor system with the vehicle of activated carbon , the amount of oil and CODcr of the flow out water were decreased from 45mg/L to 4. 1mg/L and 470mg/L to 42mg/L separately , according with first class standards of Chinese Wastewater Discharge Regulation.

The optimum medium for Lactobacillus M7 was systematically studied with SAS system. Firstly, the prime factors affecting lactic acid yield were selected by means of Plackett-Burman design; secondly, the pnme facias were optimized by response rurface analysis. Under the optimum level determined, the yield is increased by 15%.

Based on reservoir condition and fluid characteristics, the oil-degrading bacterial strain NX-2 was screened from Ma-2 fault block of Huabei oil field. Bacterial metabolism and the capability of improving oil property were evaluated on oxygen-deficient condition. At 87℃ which reservoir temperature is, artificial homogeneous core displacement experiment indicated the enhanced oil recovery of microbe was 7.1% higher than that of waterflooding. In experiment on individual well Ma-410, additional oil production of 669 tons was gained, and decreased water production of this trial well reached more than 3000 tons. These results demonstrated NX-2 could adapt to stratum conditions, enhance oil recovery and improve oil property as well.

It was constructed that a genomic DNA library from Lactobacillus sp. MD-1 yielding D, L-lactic acid. The gene encoding L-lactate dehydrogenase (L-LDH) was cloned from the genomic library of strain MD-1 by complementation in E. coli FMJ144 which was lactate dehydrogenase and pyruvate-formate lyase double defective mutant. The nucleotide sequence of the ldhL gene predicted a protein of 316 amino acid starting with ATG. The putative molecular weight of the L-LDH amino acid sequence was 33.84kD. A putative typical promoter (-35 and -10 boxes) had been observed in the 5' noncoding region. An rho-independent transcriptional terminator has been observed in the 3' noncoding region. Three highly conserved regions (Gly13 approximately Asp50, Asp73 approximately Ileul00 and Asn123 approximately Arg154) with several conserved residues had been identified. Gly13 approximately Asp50 was NADH-binding site domain. Asp73 approximately Ileu100 and Asn123 approximately Arg154 were reported to be the active site domains. The ldhL and the L-LDH of Lactobacillus sp. MD-1 showed the low identity and similarity with other Lactobacilli, and the highest percentage were 61.9% and 68.9% respectively. All the above indicated this gene is a novel ldhL.

Objective: To investigate the applied feasibility of scaffold with modified PLA (Polymer of lactic acid) in tissue engineering. Methods:First, we adopted salting-in method to prepare porous foam scaffold. Then, we reconstructed tissue engineering skin by epidermal cells and fibroblasts combined with modified PLA. On the 14th day of cell culturing in vitro, we was a control. Results:The arfificial skin is composed of epidermis and dermis and similar to natural skin in appearance. The skin consists of fibroblasts and keratinocytes, which are in various proliferation and differentiation stages. Fibroblasts and keratinocytes distribute on the surface of polymer of lactic acid (PLA) and the number of fibroblast and keratinocyte increase. Conclusion:Dialdehyde starches (DAS) not only improve the function of PLA but also have good effects on cells. Moreover, it does not affect the growth and the metabolism of the cells. So it is feasible to use modified scaffold to construct tissue engineering skin.
