Objective: To study the clinical role of the variation of serum matrix metalloproteinase-8 (MMP-8) concentration in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Methods: ELISA method was adopted to detect serum MMP-8 concentration and to observe concentration's differences and features among 80 selected ACS cases (43 acute myocardial infarction and 37 unstable angina pectoris), 43 stable angina pectoris (SAP) cases and 37 control cases. And meanwhile the atherosclerosis risk factors of each case, such as age, sex, hypertension, body mass index, smoking, family history, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia were collected and analyzed as a whole. Results: First, serum MMP-8 concentration reached the highest point in ACS, and there was significant difference between SAP and control groups (P<0.01). Second, serum MMP-8 in AMI was much higher than that in UAP with significant difference (P<0.01). There was no difference between UAP and SAP groups (P>0.05). Third, Logistic regression analysis revealed that serum MMP-8 concentration might be the indicator of ACS (B=4.493, P=0.000), particularly, that of AMI (B=9.961, P=0.000). Fourth, linear correlation and linear regression analysis found that only neutrophil was likely to influence serum MMP-8 concentration (r=0.274, P=0.001). Fifth, in the diagnosis of ACS, the area under ROC curve of MMP-8 was 0.785, the sensitivity and specificity were 68.6% and 76.5%, respectively. Conclusion: 1 Serum MMP-8 concentration has close relationship with the occurrence of ACS, particularly with AMI; 2 Serum MMP-8 concentration may be one of the predicting indicators of ACS and particularly of AMI; 3 Neutrophil may be correlated with serum MMP-8 concentration; 4 MMP-8 is of somewhat valuable in diagnosing ACS.

Objective To test the key indexes of full-field digital mammography to keep it in good condition.Methods The testing was carried out based on clinical experiences and GBZ 186—2007 Mammography Quality Control Testing Specification.Results The testing items and indexes were proposed to facilitate the staff to check and operate the machine.Conclusion Clinical safety of full-field digital mammography and image quality are both enhanced greatly.

Objective To study the optimum extration process of polysaccharides from Meretrix meretrix Linnaeus.A spectrophotometry method for content determination of polysaccharides from Meretrix meretrix Linnaeus was established with Phenol-sulfuric acid coloration.Methods The samples were extracted by ultrasonic wave,dissolved in 50mL,4mol?L~(-1) HCl and heated to hydrolyze by acid.The contents of polysaccharides from Meretrix meretrix Linnaeus were determined by spectrophotometry at 490nm.Results Extracted for thirty minutes by ultrasonic wave,two times,and acidic hydrolysis were the optimum technology.The calibration curve was linear over the range of 4.848～24.242mg?L~(-1).The regression equation was C=28.69A+0.229(r=0.9992).The average recovery rate was 100.67% and RSD was 2.83%(n=6).Conclusion The method was proved to be simple,accurate and reliable,and could be used to extract and determine the polysaccharides from Meretrix meretrix Linnaeus.

Objective The purpose of this study was to understand the pathogenic mechanisms of enterococcal hemolysin and establish the foundation to diagnose and control relevant diseases.Methods Take 30 clean grade ICR mice were randomly divided into ten groups,each 6,1 to 4 groups according to 10-fold gradient amount per 1 ml intraperitoneal injection of 5× 107 cfu/ml~5×1010 cfu/ml of EF A7,group 5 as a control group injected 0.5 ml saline,take another 30 clean grade ICR mice,intraperitoneal injection of 5×107 cfu/ml~5×1010 cfu/ml of EF A7 cyl mutant by the same measures,compared to the original strains of mice infected with mutant strain LD50,and a week after infection mortality was observed in mice daily. Another seven groups of mice with the same bacterial concentration (5×109 cfu/ml)were injected intraperitoneally EF A7 and EF A7 cyl mutant,after infection 6 h,12 h and 24 h comparing the number of leukocytes in peripheral blood of mice,re-spectively,the concentration of TNF-αin the acute phase of cytokines.Results In the mouse peritonitis models the 50% le-thal dose (LD50)of EF A7 cyl mutant was 100 times lower than enterococcus faecalis EF A7.The differences of the survival percentage of EF A7 cyl mutant groups and EF A7 groups have significance (P<0.05).As the changes in boold leukocytes numbers and the TNF-αlevel.Conclusion Cyl gene is probably a major virulence factor of Enterococcus and plays an impor-tant role in the mouse peritonitis model.
