With decision tree model, both net utility and cost-benefit were analysed to comprehensively assess hepatitis B vaccination strategy in China. The result showed that neonates shoulUbe taken as the most favourable vaccinated population, infants aged 0～3 years the next, and immediate vaccination scheme was recommended. Although vaccination would result in negative benefit in the population aged 7 and over, certain net utility was also gained, Therefore we suggest that the subjects to be vaccinated be extended in due course.

Objective To investigate the role of platelet-derived growth factor-β receptor (PDGFR-β) in self-renewal of neural stem cells (NSCs).Methods In this study,NSCs of subventricular zone were isolated and cultured from PDGFR-β knockout (PDGFR-β-/-) mice of postnatal day 1 (P1) and P28;the number and diameters of secondary neurospheres were calculated;using 5-bromo-2-deoxyuridine (BrdU) incorporation assay and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) assay,cell proliferation and survival rates were analyzed;gene expression profiles were determined by PCR-array analyses;the effect of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) on secondary neurospheres formation was examined in these cells.Results In PDGFR-β-/-NSCs,stem cell activities,such as number (/well;P1:25.9±1.3vs117.6±3.6,t=4.236,P＜0.01;P28:13.8± 0.7vs 19.8±0.6,t=2.116,P＜0.01)and diameters (μm;P1:67.7±1.9 vs 69.1 ±2.0,t=3.211,P＜0.01;P28:33.4±0.8vs37.8±0.8,t=2.354,P ＜0.01) of secondary neurospheres,cell proliferation (％;P1:73.3 ± 2.7 vs 88.7 ± 3.6,t =2.773,P ＜ 0.05;P28:28.6 ± 9.6 vs 68.2 ± 4.5,t =6.302,P ＜ 0.05) and survival rates (％;P1:14.5 ±2.1 vs 9.3 ± 1.3,t =7.222,P ＜ 0.05),were significantly lower as compared with age-matched controls.In comparison of the same genotypic NSCs,the decrease of secondary neurosphere formation was more striking in P28 NSCs than in P1 NSCs.PCR Array analyses demonstrated that expressions of fibroblast growth factor2 and BDNF were decreased (-2.04 ± 0.25,t =2.653,P ＜ 0.05;-3.24 ± 0.37,t =1.324,P ＜ 0.05),and Noggin (2.31 ± 0.37,t =2.749,P ＜ 0.05) was increased in P1 PDGFR-β-/-NSCs as compared with P1 controls.Addition of BDNF rescued the number and diameter of secondary neurospheres in P1 PDGFR-β-/-NSCs to similar levels as controls.Conclusions PDGFR-β signaling may play a role in the selfrenewal and proliferation of NSCs.BDNF may be involved in the effects of PDGFR-β signaling in these cells.

Objective To evaluate a reliable and noninvasive method for the diagnosis of acute rejection after liver transplantation.Methods The allogeneic, syngeneic and immunosuppresive models of orthotopic rat liver transplantation were established, and acute rejection was graded according to histopathological change. Bile was sent for cytology by microscopy,and the sequential detection of bile IL 2,IFN ?,IL 4 and IL 6 gene expression was performed at day 1 through day 7. Results The number of cells in bile was persistently high in allogeneic group,and blast and lymphocytes appeared in bile. IL 2 and IFN ? were detected only in allogeneic group,with a specificity of 70% and 67%(7/10 and 8/12),and a sensitivity of 39% and 44%(7/18 and 8/18)respectively.Conclusion Bile cytology and detection of IL 2 and IFN ?mRNA transcript are useful adjuvant diagnosic methods for acute rejection after liver transplantation.

0.05). Conclusions The expression of p16、 C-erbB-2 protein is correlated with gastric cancer and p16、C-erbB-2 protein can be used to evaluate the biological behavior and prognosis of gastric cancer.

Objective To evaluate the usefulness of the transect imaging and 3D-reconstruction with spiral CT in acetabulum fracture.Methods 23 cases of acetabulum fracture proved by clinical plain radiograph,transect imaging and 3D-reconsection were reviewed retrospectively.3D-reconsection were obtained on the basis of spiral transect imaging with use of 2~3 mm collimation.3 pitch and 1.2~2 mm reconstruction interval.Results Fractures were demonstrated definitely with transect imaging.3D-reconstruction in all patients the transect imaging displayed the fractures and the displacement of the burden opex of acetablulum,the disruption within joint,the direction of fracture.Displacement of detached bone fragments and capitis femoris were display stereoscopically by 3D-reconstruction.Conclusion The transect imaging and the 3D-reconstruction of spiral CT technique with spiral CT could afford the more valuable messages.Surgeon will benefit greathy from their usefulness in the choice of the surgical intervention and operative planning.

To explore the changes in blood levels of lipopolysaccharide(LPS), lipopolysaccharide-binding protein(LBP),and soluble CD14 (sCD14), and their clinical significance in patients with severe chronic viral hepatitis B. blood levels of LPS were determined with chromogenic limulus amebocyte lysate assay, and LBP and sCD14 were assayed with ELISA in 24 patients of severe chronic viral hepatitis B. 10 normal subjects and 16 patients with chronic hepatitis B were also enrolled as controls. The results showed that the blood levels of LPS, LBP and sCD14 were significantly higher in patients with the early stage, midterm, late periods of severe chronic viral hepatitis B than in normal subjects and in those with chronic hepatitis B. The blood levels of LPS, LBP and sCD14 were also significantly higher in patients who died of severe chronic viral hepatitis B than in survivors of the same disease. It suggested that when patients with severe chronic viral hepatitis B were complicated by intestinal endotoxemia (IETM), the sensitivity of Kupffer cells to endotoxin was significantly increased, resulting in hepatocyte injury by TNF ?,even in the presence of very low endotoxin concentration .

[Objective]To establish an animal model of heterotopie ossification(HO)induced by Achilles' tenotomy in Sprague-Dawley(SD)rat and to investigate its possible mechanism.[Method]Thirty six male SD rats were divided into 3 groups(n=12).In sham group,incision and suturation were performed only in the left leg.Partial tenotomy was performed in the left Achilles tendons in PAT group.In AT group,tenotomy was performed in the left Achilles tendons to establish animal model of HO.X-ray and histological examinations were made at 6 and 10 weeks after operation.[Result](1)No HO occurred in the sham and PAT groups.(2)In AT group,3 rats showed cartilage and bone formation on X-rays while the remaining 3 rats showed chondrification in histological examination at 6 weeks after operation.At 10 weeks all rats showed bone formation with trabecular bone.This kind of HO developed through a process of endochondral ossification.[Conclusion]Tenotomy is a simple,effective and feasible method to induce HO.

Objective To compare the curative effects of multi-level puncture versus single-level puncture percutaneous vertebroplasty(PVP) for treatment of multiple-level osteoporotic vertebral body compression fractures(OVCF) in senile patients.Methods From June 2008 through November 2014,89 senile patients with fresh multiple-level OVCF underwent PVP guided by C-arm fluoroscopy in prone position.Of them,51 received PVP in which the vertebrae of multiple levels were simultaneously punctured for bone cement injection while the other 38 received PVP in which the vertebrae of multiple levels were punctured one by one for bone cement injection.The 2 groups were compatible with no significant differences in preoperative demographic data (P ＞ 0.05).The 2 groups were compared in terms of visual analgesic scale (VAS),operation time for a single vertebra,fluoroscopy times for a single vertebra,bone cement injection amount for a single vertebra,and extraosseous cement leakage.Results PVP procedures were successful in both groups without serious complications.The VAS scores in both groups at 2 days post-operation were significantly lower than those at pre-operation(P ＜ 0.05).The operation time and fluoroscopy times for a single vertebra in the multi-level puncture PVP group were significantly less than those in the single-level puncture PVP group (P ＜ 0.05).There were no significant differences between the 2 groups in bone cement injection amount for a single vertebra or extraosseous cement leakage (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The curative effects of multi-level puncture and single-level PVP are satisfactory for senile OVCF,but multi-level puncture PVP may lead to less operation time and less X-ray exposure.

Objective To understand the training status and learning requirement of nursing personnel for the aged from the perspective of nursing targets and their relatives in the city of Nanjing.Methods The questionnaire involved six categories,80 questionnaires were sent out,57 of them were recollected.The effective recovery rate was 71.3％(57/80).All the data were input into Excel to do statistical analysis.Results The nursing personnel did not fully grasp the skills of transfusion nursing and muscle injection [45.6％(26/57) and 33.3％(19/57)] in the basic theory of basic care,knowledge and skills from the perspective of nursing targets and their relatives.The Chinese medicine nursing skills such as scrapping [needing very much 40.4％ (23/57)] and burying seeds [needing very much 40.4％ (23/57)] in the ear acupuncture point were also needed to be enhanced.A total of 75.4％ (43/57) of respondents chose online examination as the way of nursing personnel's evaluation.Conclusions Nursing personnel are in great need of on-job professional training.
