Objective:To study the master iodine nutrition status of population living in areas with different iodine in drinking water and the cut-off point of stopping iodized salt supply and the range of adequate iodine intake for the strategy of prevention from iodine deficiency or excess. Method:Thirteen townships points along the Yellow River downstream in Shandong were investigated and divided into six groups(A-F) based on water iodine concentrations of 0-50,50-100,100-150,150-300,300-800 and over 800 ?g/L. The indicators of water iodine,edible salt iodine,urinary iodine(UI) and thyroid goiter were observed. Results:From A,B,C,D,E and F group,the medians of water iodine concentration were 20.3,91.4,143.2,203.6,341.9 and 812.3 ?g/L,of edible salt iodine were 0,25.7,25.8,30.4,36.4 and 33.0 mg/kg,and of UI were 116.8,354.2,400.4,607.9,881.3 and 1 213.8 ?g/L respectively. The goiter rates were 10.8,8.6,15.0,14.2,14.9 and 25.0 % respectively . The sample proportion of UI below 100 ?g/L was 8.2%,of 100-300 ?g/L was 18.2% and of over 300 ?g/L was 73.6%. Frequency excursion of UI had a high trend towards water iodine concentration over 90?g/L in 5 groups. The proportion of UI over 300 ?g/L increased,consistent with higher water iodine level. Median UI of all groups with iodized salt decreased significantly,especially group F. There were significant correlations between UI and water iodine. Iodine nutrition status was markedly excessive in group B,C,D,E and F. Conclusions:Iodine nutrition status of most residents consuming drinking water with iodine concentration about 20 ?g/L should be adequately supplied with eligible iodized salt. Iodine intakes in groups B-F were excessive,and iodized salt supply should be stopped there. The cut-point of water iodine level where iodized salt stopped could possibly be 90 ?g/L,and the range of adequate iodine intake,in terms of drinking water,could be defined at range of over 20 to 90 ?g/L in iodine concentration.

0 05) After one year,plasma cortisol of the patients in either inhaled FP 500 ?g group or 750 ?g group was within normal rang Conclusions Long term inhaled FP with 500 ?g to 750 ?g per day is effective in moderate to severe asthma patients and has no significant suppression on adrenal cortex function

Objectives To investigate the clinical significance of CYP2C19 genotype detection for antiplatelet therapy of elder cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases(CCVD).Methods We enrolled all elderly patients with either cardiovascular or cerebrovascular disorders who received clopidogrel as mono drug or in combination with another antiplatelet drug aspirin as secondary prevention for more than 12 months in our hospital from January to August 2015.Somatotypes of CYP2C19 genotypes of all participants were assessed to analyze the relapse of cardiac-cerebral vascular diseases in these patients.Results A total of 250 patients were enrolled,including 179 male and 71 female,with average age of (85.2 ± 7.9) years.Among these patients,there were 97 (38.8%) cases with EM CYP2C19 genotypes,110 cases(44.0 %) with IM CYP2C19 genotypes,43 cases(17.2 %) with PM CYP2C19 genotypes.When treated with clopidogrel for antiplatelet in secondary prevention process,the rate of the relapse in cardiovascular event was 34.9% and higher in PM CYP2C19 genotype than in EM and IM CYP2C19 genotype (19.6 % and 15.5 %,respectively) (x2 =7.251,P =0.027).This phenomenon was similar to patients who received stent implantation(x2=6.393,P =0.041).However,no statistically significant difference was observed in the recurrence rate of cerebral vascular disease between three different genotypes(EM 29.9 %,IM 20.0 %,PM 27.9%,x2 =2.880,P =0.237).Conclusions Our results highlight that CYP2C19 genotype might be a potential guidance for secondary prevention of cardiovascular and cercbrovascular disorders among elderly patients.Clopidogrel may be less effective in patients with SM CYP2C19 genotype than those with EM or PM CYP2C19 genotype for secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease.

0.05). Conclusions HF could not only relax cerebral vessels, reduce the CVR and enhance the CBF, but also dilate the femoral vessels of CVS dogs. Nevertheless, the latter action was much weaker. Furthermore, there was no relationship between effects of HF on vascular relaxation and contraction activity and the blood vessel endothelium.

Objective To investigate the diagnosis and treatment of vertigo associated with changes of head position.Methods 112 patients of vertigo associated with changes of head position were analyzed from June 2006 to December 2007 through the positional tests and imaging examination.Results 45 men and 67 women from ages 12 to 75 (median 50) were included with a total of 112 patients.88 patients were diagnosed as benign paroxysmal positional vertigo(BPPV),76 patients as posterior semicircular canals BPPV,9 patients as horizontal semicircular canal BPPV,3 patients as anterior semicircular canals BPPV,9 patients as suspicious BPPV.They were treated by canalith repositioning procedure,the total improvement rate was 96.9% after 1 week.15 cases of cervical vertigo were treated by physical therapy and medication,the vertigo of 4 patients disappeared and of 11 patients was improved significantly after 2 weeks.Conclusion The positional tests and cervical plain x-ray are the simplest ways to diagnose vertigo associated with changes of head position.Physical therapy and medication are effective.It is suitable to promote in the grass-roots hospitals.

Objective To explore and assess the reasonable application of integrated collaborative service mode in obstetrics and gynecology clinical service.Methods 152 pregnant women admitted in obstetric outpatient from March 2016 to May 2016 were randomly assigned into observation group and control group,76 cases in each group.The control group received obstetric traditional outpatient treatment and hospitalization mode,while the observation group implemented the integrated collaborative service mode.It was a integrated mode based on the traditional mode and multidisciplinary professionals integrated into groups for synergistic services,from the beginning of pregnancy to discharge.Results The number of cases who were knowledged maternal diseases,intraoperative coordination,reasonable diet and breastfeeding of the observation group (69,70,69,66) were superior to those of the control group (51,40,54,50) (x2=17.56,52.58,12.44,11.11,all P<0.001).The incidence rate of maternal and neonatal complications of the observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group(t=12.04,6.49,2.87,9.26,-7.14,all P<0.005).And patients satisfaction survey was improved,the number of satisfaction and complaint in the observation group was 70 persons,1 person,which of the control group was 70 persons,6 persons (x2=7.65,P<0.01).Conclusion Integrated collaborative service mode can improve the quality of medical service and patients' satisfaction,while reduce cesarean section rate,postpartum hemorrhage and maternal complications.Integrated collaborative service mode is an effective method to promote the development of perinatal medicine.

Recent studies suggested that the prostate cancer may arise from prostate cancer stem cells that share some same characteristics with normal stem cells. The purpose of this study was to detect the differences of Nanog expression between PC3 prostate cancer cell line and its tumor stem cells, and the relationship was preliminarily examined between Nanog and prostate cancer and its tumor stem cells. By using magnetic active cell sorting (MACS), we isolated a population of CD44(+)/CD133(+) prostate cancer cells that display stem cell characteristics from PC3 cell line. Immunohistochemistry revealed positive expressions of CD44, CD133 and α(2)β(1)-integin in the isolated cells. CCK-8 analysis showed that isolated cells had a strong proliferative ability. The formation of the cell spheres in serum-free medium and holoclones in serum-supplied medium showed that the cells were capable of self-renewing, indicating that the isolated cells were a population of cancer stem-like cells derived from PC3 cell line. Western blotting exhibited that the isolated cells had higher experession of Nanog, an embryonic stem marker, as compared with PC3 cells. Our study showed that Nanog might be helpful in sustaining the self-renewal and the undifferentiation of prostate cancer stem cells, and may serve as a marker for prostate cancer stem cells for isolation and identification.
