Objective:To investigate the expression of miR-203a in bladder cancer (BC) cell lines (RT-112, T24, 5637, UM-UC-3) and evaluate the effects on BC cell proliferation and radiosensitivity.Methods:Mir-203a mimics, mir-203a inhibitor, CDK6 siRNA, CDK6 expression plasmid and corresponding negative controls were transfected into BC cells. Quantitative real-time PCR was used to detect the expression of miR-203a in BC cell lines and human bladder epithelial immortalized cell line (SV-HUC-1). CCK8 assay was used to investigate the regulation of miR-203a and cyclin-dependent kinases 6(CDK6) on the proliferation of BC cells. Colony formation assay was performed to assess the effect of miR-203a and CDK6 on the radiosensitivity of BC cells. The target gene of miR-203a was confirmed by luciferase reporter assay. The effect of miR-203a on CDK6 protein expression was detected by Western blot. Multi-group comparison was performed by one-way ANOVA and two-group comparison was conducted by t-test. Results:Compared with the SV-HUC-1 cells, the expression levels of miR-203a in RT-112, T24, 5637 and UM-UC-3 cells were significantly down-regulated (all P<0.05). Compared with NC group, overexpression of miR-203a significantly inhibited the proliferation of BC cells, whereas knockdown of miR-203a significantly promoted the proliferation of BC cells (both P<0.05). Compared with NC group, overexpression of miR-203a significantly increased the sensitivity of BC cells to radiotherapy, whereas knockdown of miR-203a significantly weakened the sensitivity of BC cells to radiotherapy (both P<0.05). CDK6 was the target of miR-203a. Compared with NC group, overexpression of miR-203a significantly down-regulated the expression level of CDK6 protein, whereas knockdown of miR-203a significantly up-regulated the expression level of CDK6 protein (both P<0.05). After overexpression of CDK6 in T24 and UM-UC-3 cells transfected with miR-203a mimics, the cell proliferation ability was significantly increased, whereas the sensitivity to radiotherapy was significantly decreased compared with mir-203a mimics (both P<0.05). After CDK6 was silenced in RT-112 and 5637 cells transfected with miR-203a inhibitor, the proliferation ability of cells was significantly decreased, whereas the sensitivity to radiotherapy was remarkably increased compared with miR-203a inhibitor group (both P<0.05). Conclusion:miR-203a can serves as a tumor suppressor gene to inhibit the proliferation of BC cells and enhance the radiosensitivity of BC cells.

Objective To investigate changes in bone mineral density (BMD) and analyze its related factors in community populations to provide the early diagnosis of osteoporosis (OP) and give right guidance to prevent osteoporosis. Methods The quantitative ultrasound BMD analyzer was used to measure BMD of heel in 8 711 adults in community. At the same time a questionnaire survey was conducted among these subjects. The data were analyzed by Logistic stepwise regression analysis. Results With the age changing, males and females tended to have different BMD variation. Male and female's BMD peak values were respectively in 35-age group, 30-age group and decreased as age increased. T value of BMD was different between male and female (-1.40(-2.0--0.7)vs-1.3(-2.0--0.5))(P<0.001). Both men and women had a higher incidence of low bone mass (53.34%vs 47.46%), and the difference was significant (P<0.001), whereas the incidence of osteoporosis after 55 years of age between men and women was statistically significance (P<0.05). BMD was the lowest for female than for male in 50-age group, and the prevalence rate of OP was remarkably increased. Analysis of related factors of BMD showed that body mass index (BMI), age, diabetes and menopause were risk facts. Conclusion The BMD among adults is related to many factors, in which the age, BMI and menopause are the most important factors. Much attention should be paid to low bone mass phenomenon, timely monitoring, timely intervention, develop healthy working and living habits, is important to the prevention of osteoporosis and its complications.

Objective To evalute and compare the efficacy and safety of epinephrine-saline submu-cosal injection of different concentrations on endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD),and to discuss the best concentration of submucosal injection.Methods A total of 128 patients who underwent ESD were ran-domly assigned to submucosal normal saline injection group (group A,n =32),0.001% epinephrine-saline injection group (group B,n =32),0.002% epinephrine-saline injection group (group C,n =32),and 0.004% epinephrine-saline injection group (group D,n =32).The incidence of bleeding during and after ESD were counted,the blood preasure and heart rate of preoperative and intraoperative,the amount of sub-mucosal injection,the time of operation were observed.Results ESD was successfully performed on all pa-tients.There were no difference in highest blood preasure and fastest heart rate between preoperative and in-traoperative results of each group.No perforation or intraoperative acute massive bleeding occurred.Intraop-erative acute minimal bleeding during ESD occurred in 9 patients in group A and 3 in group B,2 in group C and 2 in group D (P <0.05),but there were no differences among group B,C and D.The amount of submu-cosal injection of group A was(39.5 ±10.8)ml,which was more than that of group B(29.4 ±9.4)ml,group C(27.3 ±8.2)ml and group D(20.4 ±11.8)ml with significant difference.There were no differences a-mong group B,C and D,but there was less in group D than group B.The operation time of group A was(82.3 ±24.78 minutes),which was longer than that of group B (60.7 ±25.35minutes),group C (54.7 ± 31.72minutes)and group D(59.2 ±28.49 minutes),but there was no difference among B,C and D group. Conclusion Epinephrine-saline submucosal injection assiting ESD is safe and effective and reduces the op-eration time and bleeding than normal saline.The increase of the epinephrine-saline concentrations has not been found to be more beneficial.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of ultraviolet light in influenza B prevention and control in schools in Yantian District of Shenzhen in winter, and to provide a reference for preventing and controlling influenza B in schools. Methods: Multistage stratified cluster sampling was conducted. Ultraviolet irradiance was detected in 98 classes of 11 schools. The irradiance of different distances under each ultraviolet lamp were measured. Correlational analysis was conducted with influenza cases reported by Shenzhen Student Health Surveillance System. Results: A total of 473 ultraviolet lamps were detected, the qualified rate was 53.91%. The effective distance from the lamp corresponding power supply to efficient irradiance was (1.43±0.54)m. The total effective irradiance volume per unit time of each class was(13.65±32.66)m3. Totally 599 influenza cases in 74 classes were reported, with incidence rate of 13.76%. Fifty-eight classes reported influenza clustering, accounting for 59.18%. Average duration of the epidemic was(14.5±25.25)d. Spearman correlation analysis showed that the proportion of irradiance volume per unit time in classroom volume was negatively correlated with class influenza incidence(r=-0.32, P=0.00), but not significant with duration of influenza epidemic(P=0.78). Covariance analysis showed that the incidence of influenza and the duration of influenza epidemic in classes was not significantly correlated with the proportion of irradiance volume per class per unit time in classroom volume (P>0.05). Conclusion Ultraviolet light might not effectively reduce the incidence rate of influenza B and the duration of influenza epidemic in schools in Yantian District of Shenzhen over 2017-2018 winter.

Objective To confirm whether or not let-7b and miR-199a were significantly associated with malignant melanoma growth and proliferation. Methods An over -expression plasmid and an inhibitor, which targeted on let-7b and miR-199a, was constructed. B16F10 cells were divided into seven groups: control group, let-7b plasmid group, miR-199a plasmid group, empty plasmid group, let-7b inhibitor group, miR-199a inhibitor group, inhibitor control group. Foreign gene was transfected into B16F10 cells, let-7b and miR-199a expression were validated from RNA level, protein level and cell level. Results The relative let-7b or miR-199a gene expression of the let-7b plasmid group (3.8776±0.1372)and miR-199a plasmid group (2.8660±0.2821)were significantly higher than control group (P＜0.05), the relative let-7b or miR-199a gene expression of the let-7b inhibitor group (0.2057±0.0263) and miR-199a inhibitor group(0.2656±0.0253) were significantly lower than control group(P＜0.05). The cyclinD1 expression of the let-7b plasmid group(2.023±0.315) and let-7b inhibitor group (1.857±0.377) were significantly higher than control group (0.997±0.041) (P＜0.05), whereas, the Met expression of themiR-199a plasmid group (5.19±0.309) and miR-199a inhibitor group (4.87±0.044) were significantly higher than control group (2.2±0.198) (P＜0.05). The let-7b plasmid group and miR-199a plasmid group B16F10 cell growth rate were slower than control group, especially on the third day after transfection, the growth rate gradually dropped to the lowest value (P＜0.05). In addition, the apoptosis rates of the let-7b plasmid group and miR-199a plasmid group reach to (11.8±1.19)% and (11.3±1.59)%,which were significantly higher than control group (P＜0.05). Conclusions let-7b and miR-199a may be a negative regulator on the B16F10 cell growth and proliferation.

OBJECTIVETo compare the clinical effects between closed reduction and internal fixation (CRIF) and total hip arthroplasty (THA) for displaced femoral neck fracture.

METHODSIn this prospective randomized study, 285 patients aged above 65 years with hip fractures (Garden III or IV) were included from January 2001 to December 2005. The cases were randomly allocated to either the CRIF group or THA group. Patients with pathological fractures (bone tumors or metabolic bone disease), preoperative avascular necrosis of the femoral head, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, hemiplegia, long-term bed rest and complications affecting hip functions were excluded.

RESULTSDuring the 5-year follow-up, CRIF group had significantly higher rates of complication in hip joint, general complication and reoperation than THA group (38.3% vs. 12.7%, P<0.01; 45.3% vs. 21.7%, P<0.01; 33.6% vs. 10.2%, P<0.05 respectively). There was no difference in mortality between the two groups. Postoperative function of the hip joint in THA group recovered favorably with higher Harris scores.

CONCLUSIONFor displaced fractures of the femoral neck in elderly patients, THA can achieve a lower rate of complication and reoperation, as well as better postoperative recovery of hip joint function compared with CRIF.

Growth factors play critical roles in the process of wound healing. Application of growth factor locally is a good way of promoting wound healing, while it is easy to be hydrolyzed in wounds and its efficacy has dose- and time-dependent manner. Therefore, appropriate growth factor delivery system is needed to assist it to function in wounds. In addition to delivering growth factor directly to wounds, viral and non-viral vectors can be used for gene transfection of growth factor in wounds. The gene can be transformed to growth factor to promote wound healing by transcription and translation. This article reviews the advances in the research of delivery system of growth factor and the gene for promoting wound healing.
