Citrullination is a post-translational modification of arginine caused by peptidyl arginine deiminase in the presence of calcium ions.Up-regulation of citrullination plays a significant role in the progress of numerous disorders,and it has important physiologic and pathological significance.High-throughput and quantitative methods with high specificity and sensitivity are still needed to identify the citrullinated sites in tissue cells.With the development of chemical derivatization and mass spectrometry, new rapid and accurate proteomics technology still has a good prospect of development and application.This article aimed to provide new ideas and directions to identify the citrullinated sites in the complex biological samples by introducing strategies available to identify citrullinated peptides, such as color development reagent analysis, immunodetection and mass spectrometry.

The surgical treatment for portal hypertension (PHT) aims to control and prevent the gastroesophageal variceal bleeding.The choices of surgical timing and procedures are dependent on the liver reserve function.Except for Child-Pugh classification and model for end-stage liver disease scoring system,the future liver remrant and pre-albumin are the important evaluation indexes,meanwhile,the choice of surgical procedures would be dependent on portal hemodynamics that can reduce incidence of rebleeding of postoperative hepatic encephalopathy.Hepatic venous pressure gradient is the most important objective index forecasting bleeding risk and severity of PHT.

OBJECTIVE:To discuss the approach and role of clinical pharmacists' participating in clinical consultation. METHODS: The consultation data of clinical pharmacists' participating in clinical consultation from Feb. 2004 to Dec. 2007 including patients' basic condition,reasons for consultation,pathogens,past medication history,whether the consultative suggestions were adopted or not,feedback of patient's condition etc were analyzed. RESULTS: Clinical pharmacists participated in clinical consultation for 7 cases on the use of antibiotics in 2004,up to 123 cases in 2007. Of which,the patients from internal medicine department accounted for no less than 42.8%;the ratio of male to female was about 2:1. No significant differences were noted in age,peripheral hemogram and body temperature(P

Objective To establish the methods of microbial limit test for three kinds of preparations with heavy metals, such asDingxian Pills,Pizhi Lotion andJiawei Huangqin Ointment.Methods According to Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2010, the recovery rates of bacteria, fungus and yeast treated by three preparations were detected. And the methods of testing control bacteria were also validated.Results Culture medium dilution method was proved to be applicable forDingxian Pills. Culture medium dilution method combined with pre-filtration method was proper for Pizhi Lotion. And the extraction method was adopted forJiawei Huangqin Ointment. The recovery rates of these five validation strains reached 70% by appropriate methods. And the same methods were used for validation of the control bacteria.Conclusion The methods of microbial limit test for these three different preparations were established through this study.

Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a special subgroup of breast cancer with more aggressive biological behavior and clinicopathological characteristics,and the therapy of TNBC has always been the research difficulty and hot spot.Currently,surgery and adjuvant radiotherapy are still the main method in local treatment,amd the research of traditional chemotherapy and targeted therapy have been made some progress.Meanwhile,new drugs continuously appear in recent years.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics of acinetobacter baumannii infection and drug resistance tendency of our hospital in 2014 ,so as to promote the clinical rational use of antibiotics .Methods The study was a retrospective review ,the re‐sults of clinical distribution and drug resistance of acinetobacter baumannii isolated from our hospital in 2014 were analyzed .The an‐timicrobial susceptibility testing(AST) of acinetobacter baumannii was determined by K‐B disk diffusion method and minimal inhib‐itory concentration(MIC) test ,respectively .The AST was performed as recommended by CLSI 2010 .Results A total of 299 strains of acinetobacter baumannii were isolated from clinical specimens throughout the year .Of the 299 Acinetobacter baumannii isolates , 268 strains(89 .63% ) were isolated from sputum ,165 strains(55 .18% ) of Acinetobacter baumannii were from intensive care unit (ICU) and 52 strains(17 .39% ) were from neurosurgery .The resistance rate of Acinetobacter baumannii to cefoperazone/sulbactam was 5 .02% while its resistance to Imipenem and Meropenem significantly increased to 52 .17% and 56 .86% ,respectively .And the resistance rates ofβ‐lactams ,fluoroquinolones and aminoglycosides were higher than 60% .Conclusion The isolation rate of Acine‐tobacter baumannii is increasing in recent year in our hospital ,as well the resistance rate to the common Antibiotics .Monitoring the resistance of Acinetobacter baumannii should be strengthened for preventing resistant bacteria from spreading .

Objective To investigate the change of serum prealbumin (PA) and C-reactive protein (CRP) in burn patients and its clinical significance.Methods Sixty eight cases of burn patients were divided into two groups,group Ⅰ [n=38,with total burn surface area less than 15% of total body surface area (TBSA)] and groupⅡ(n=30,with total burn surface area more than 50% of TBSA). Thirty healthy people were set as healthy control group. Particle enhanced immunoturbidimetic assay was applied to detecting the serum levels of PA and CRP for all subjects on the day 1 after burns.Results The CRP level was much higher and serum level of PA was much lower in group Ⅱ than that of group Ⅰ,respectively. There existed significant negative correlation between PA and CRP level.Conclusion The level of serum PA decreases significantly along with total burn surface area expansion. PA can be used as a sensitive marker for estimation of inflammation degree after burns.

Pancreatic portal hypertension (PPH),which accounts for about 5％ of extrahepatic portal hypertension cases,is mainly caused by pancreatic tumor,chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic ductal lithiasis.The pathogenesis and pathological characteristics of PPH are attributed to anatomical structure between splenic vein and pancreas.It is different from cirrhotic portal hypertension,PPH patients may present with less esophageal and gastric fundus varices,but more significant gastric body varices.The portal vein radiography is recognized as the golden standard for PPH diagnosis.There are two types of treatment modalities for PPH,symptomatic treatment and pathogenesis-based treatment.In clinically,we should take careful consideration into portal hypertension and primary disease,aim to resolve causes and manage complication concurrently.

The functional neuroimaging techniques might help to understand cerebral neuronal activities,synaptic transmission,fiber connections and other associated diseases at the molecular level.Since neuroimaging datasets are large,it is important to find some easy and efficient analytical approaches to facilirate the diagnosis and to reveal the pathogenesis for many neurological diseases.Functional imaging techniques are expected to be novel modalities for assessing diagnosis,treatment response and prognosis for neurological diseases.The latest development of analytical approaches for functional neuroimaging based on nuclear medicine is reviewed in this article.

Objective To study the effect and mechanism of Feibi Decoction on pulmonary fibrosis.Methods SD rats were randomly divided into sham-operation group,model control group,Feibi Decoction large-close group,Feibi Decoction mid-dose group,Feibi Decoction samll-dose group and western medicine control group,each of 10 rats.Bleomycetin was used to copy rat's pulmonary fibrosis model.Feibi decoction was drenched to rats in large,medium and small dose of Chinese medicine groups.Prednisone was given to werstern medicine control group.The rats were executed 28 days later.The expression of p38 MAPK and transforming growth factor ?1(TGF-?1) was tested.Results In comparison with sham operation,Chinese medicine and western medicine groups,the expression of p38 MAPK and TGF-?1 in model control group increased significantly(P
