The relative area percentages of“heavy chain + light chain”peak,non-glycosyl main peak and low molecular weight substance peak were(94. 16 ± 0. 82)%,(4. 11 ± 0. 76)% and(0. 85 ± 0. 20)%,respectively. The relative area percentages of main peak,nonglycosyl main peak and low molecular weight substance peak were(94. 27 ± 0. 22)%,(2. 85 ± 0. 08)% and(2. 88 ± 0. 15)%,respectively. The relative area percentages of monomer,high molecular weight substance and low molecular weight substance were(98. 30 ± 0. 03)%,(0. 75 ± 0. 01)% and(0. 96 ± 0. 02)%,respectively. The relative percentages of G0F,G1F,G2F and non-fucosylated(G0 + G1 + G2 + Man5)were(39. 31 ± 0. 54)%,(34. 69 ± 0. 41)%,(9. 09 ± 0. 14)% and(12. 61 ± 0. 50)%,respectively. The relative biological potency was(101. 64 ± 3. 61)% of the reference. The content of polysorbate 20 was(0. 012 ± 0. 000 3)%. Conclusion According to the key quality attribute of monoclonal antibody against PCSK9,the corresponding key quality control methods have been established,which can ensure the safety,effectiveness and quality controllability of the product.

Carotid stenosis is an important modifiable risk factor in ischemic stroke.The com prehensive diagnosis of carotid stenosis,including the comprehensive understanding of stenosis degree,plaque stability,and head and neck vessels,which has important guiding significance for the prevention and treatment of ischemic stroke.This article reviews the diagnostic values of digital subtraction angiography,sonography,magnetic resonance angiography and CT angiorgaphy in carotid stenosis.

Perihematomal edema is common after hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage. It is one of the important causes influencing functional recovery. This article reviews the mechanisms of perihematomal brain edema formation after hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage, particularly, the potential mechanisms of hypertension in the processes of brain edema formation, as well as therapeutic targets of brain edema.

The causes of iatrogenic injury in choledo-cho-pancreatico-duodenai junction include iatrogenic factors, anatomic factors and pathological factors. T-tube, methylthionine chloride and fiber choledochoscopy are useful methods for early diagnosis. Accurate exploration of the injury site and reasonable choice of management were significant in dealing with the iatrogenie injury and can lead to a satisfactory result. Choledo-chojejunostomy and Oddi sphincteroplasty are not recommended unless the patients had distal bile duet stricture or the stones can not be removed. Accurate detection of the injury site, evaluation of the severity, and proper choice of the surgical method are important for the prognosis of the patients.

Diastolic and systolic dysfunction of cerebral artery is an important pathophysioiogical basis of the occurrence and development of cerebrovascular diseases, and is also the presence of decreased cerebrovascular reserve capacity. Cerebrovascular myogenic and metabolic regulation abilities can be evaluated by different methods so as to reflect cerebrovascular reserve capacity, of those, transcranial Doppler ultrasonography is the most widely used one. Various diseases, such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and carotid atherosclerosis also have great effect on cerebrovascular reserve capacity.

Objective: To investigate the changes of vasoconstrictor and vasodilator functions of isolated thoracic aorta in the rats with obstructive jaundice, so as to study the mechanism for the functional changes of the aorta in rats with obstructive jaundice. Methods: Sixty male SD rats were randomly divided into bile duct ligation (BDL) group and sham operation (SO) group. The thoracic aortas were isolated at 3, 7 and 14 d after surgery and the vasoconstrictor responses induced by high potassium, norepinephrine (NE) and phenylephrine (PE) gradient and the vasodilator response to SNP were tested. Another 40 male SD rats were randomly divided into BDL three-day group, BDL seven-day group, BDL 14-day group and sham operation (SO) group. The expression of α1D-AR protein in the thoracic aorta was assessed by Western blotting. Results: The vasoconstrictor responses of thoracic aorta rings in high potassium, NE, PE, and BDL rats were weaker than those in the SO group. The vasodilator response induced by SNP in the BDL group was greater than that in the SO group. The expression of α1D-AR protein in the BDL group was weaker than that in the SO group, and the expression decreased with the prolongation of obstructive time. Conclusion: The systolic and diastolic functions of isolated thoracic aorta rings are changed in cholestatic rats; the weakened systolic function might be a result of decreased expression of α 1D-AR albumen.

We report a case of a 47-year-old man who firstly complained of throat pain for half a month accompanied with fever. Specialized examination showed tonsils' hypertrophy and the laryngoscope found his right vocal cord was swelling and hyperemia. The routine blood test counted white blood cell as 31 x 10(9)/L, lymphocyte as 30. 84 x 10(9)/L while prolymphocyte could be seen with microscope. After that B-ultrasound scan gave spleen hypertrophy and multi-lymphatic-node enlargement. Peripheral blood flowcytometry and bone marrow biopsy finally diagnosed the man as actue myelocytic leukemia.

BACKGROUND:Although core decompression can contribute to the reconstruction of necrotic bone, its single use appears to have some deficiencies and cannot completely realize the reconstruction of the femoral head.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of arthroscopic core decompression with autologous bone marrow induction material combined with titanium rod in the repair of stage II femoral head necrosis
METHODS:A retrospective analysis was performed on clinical data of 79 cases of stage II femoral head necrosis admitted at the South Branch of Tongchuan People’s Hospital from February 2011 to February 2013. According to the therapeutic methods, these cases were divided into control group (40 cases) and observation group (39 cases), and were given conventional core decompression and arthroscopic core decompression with autologous bone marrow induction material combined with titanium rod. Patients were fol owed up for 24 months, and the range of hip flexion and Harris scores on hip function and adverse events were observed and compared between two groups.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Al the 79 patients successful y completed the 24-month fol ow-up. By the last fol ow-up, the range of hip flexion and Harris score were significantly higher in the observation group than the control group (P<0.05). There was no failure case due to surgical material rejection. To sum up, arthroscopic core decompression with autologous bone marrow induction material combined with titanium rod is safe and effective for repair of stage II femoral head necrosis.
