AIM:To study the changes of ?-adrenoceptors in peripheral lymphocytes at different stages of asthma. METHODS:?-adrenoceptors in peripheral lymphocytes, cAMP and cGMP levels in blood plasma were measured by radioligand binding assay and radioimmunoassay.RESULTS:Bmax and Kd of ?-adrenoceptors in asthma at remission stage were markedly higher than that in normal subjects, while cAMP levels in blood plasma were not different between them. Bmax of ?-adrenoceptors and cAMP levels in blood plasma in asthma at acute exacerbation stage were significantly lower than that in normal subjects, Kds between these two groups were not much different. There was no correlation between ?-adrenoceptors, cAMP and cGMP levels in blood plasma and ventilatory functions.CONCLUSIONS:Changes of ?-adrenoceptors in asthma rather be a pathological change accompanied by the course of the disease than a primary defect.

Six hundred and eight fungi strains were isolated from seventy-eight samples of mangrove plants and soil that collected from Qinglan harbor. Cyctotoxic activity was detected by observing the growth inhibition or killing of the tumor cells under microscope. The result showed that 81 strains (about 13.32% of the total strains isolated) displayed cytotoxic activity against B16 tumor cell. The most fungi strains were isolated from mangrove plant Sonneratia alba, and most of cytotoxic active fungi strains were isolated from mangrove plant Heritiera littoralis.

ObjectiveTo compare the exposure, identification of parathyroid and postoperative complications between total thyroidectomy (TT) and subtotal/near total thyroidectomy (S/NT) for bilateral multiple thyroid nodules. MethodsA total of 278 cases were performed TT and S/NT randomly from Dec. 2006 to Dec.2009. The histology, identification of parathyroid and recurrent laryngeal nerves (RLN), and incidence of complications were compared between the 2 surgical procedures. The data were processed with t test or x2 test.Results227 cases were estimated to be benign preoperatively, among whom 28 cases ( 12.3% ) were diagnosed as focal cancer by postoperative pathology. The identification rate of parathyroid was 96.5% in TT group and 60.4% in S/NT group (P<0.05). The mean postoperative serum calcium level was 2.057 +0.016 mmol/L in TT group and 2. 15 + 0.019 mmol/L in S/NT group (P < 0.05 ). The incidence rate of transient hypoparathyroidism (HPT) was 16.9% in TT group and 5.7% in S/NT group (P<0.05). There was no statistical difference between the 2 groups in terms of the incidence rate of permanent HPT and transient recurrent laryngeal nerves (RLN) palsy ( P > 0.05 ). The incidence rate of permanent HPT was higher in reoperation cases ( 11.1% ) than in primary surgery cases (0.0%) in TT group ( P <0.05 ). ConclusionBased on the accurate technique under microscope field, TT is a safe surgical procedure for primary surgery with bilateral multiple thyroid nodules.

Objective To explore the quantitative characteristics of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma(PDAC) in single-source dual energy spectral CT imaging. Methods From January 2013 to December 2014, 113 patients underwent dual phase contrast-enhanced gemstone spectral imaging(GSI) on Discovery CT 750 HD. All diagnoses were pathologically confirmed by surgery or biopsy. The spectral HU curves of PDAC were observed, the monochromatic CT values, the effective atomic number(Zef ), the iodine concentration(IC), water concentration(WC), and the corresponding normalized values(normalized monochromatic CT values, normalized Zef , normalized IC, normalized WC)of the lesion and the pancreatic parenchyma in late arterial phase(AP) and portal venous phase(PP) were recorded . The measurements were performed three times repeatedly. Paired t test (normal distribution) or Wilcoxon test (non-normal distribution) were used for analyzing the differences between the two phases and between PDAC and pancreatic parenchyma. Results The monochromatic CT values of PDAC in AP were lower than in PP at each energy level and the difference was more marked at lower energy. The normalized monochromatic CT values increased with the increase of energy level in both AP and PP and the difference was more distinct at lower energy. The Zef , IC and normalized IC of PDAC all had significant differences(P<0.05), while the WC, normalized Zef , and normalized WC had no difference between AP and PP. The Zef and IC of pancreatic parenchyma had significant differences(P<0.05), while the WC had no difference between AP and PP. The differences of Zef , IC, and WC between PDAC and pancreatic parenchyma were significant in both two phases (P<0.05). Conclusions Dual phase CT spectral imaging showed characteristic quantitative parameters of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. The monochromatic CT values, Zef , and iodine concentration of PDAC were lower than those of pancreatic parenchyma in both AP and PP. The monochromatic CT values, Zef , and iodine concentration of PDAC in late arterial phase were lower than those in portal venous phase. The differences were all more distinct at lower energy.
