Objective There are many interferences such as power interference, electrode polarization interference, myoelectricity interference, baseline drift, apparatus buzz and so on in electrocardiosignal acquisition system. It is very difficult to effectively remove these interferences in the process of actual measurement. Methods Power harmonic interference, electrode polarization interference and myoelectricity interference were removed by low-pass filter. Baseline drift was removed by high-pass filter. Power basic frequency interference was removed by 50 Hz trap filter. Results These three design proposals had such advantages as good effect, rapid speed and easy realization. Conclusion They can be well applied in ECG monitor with embedded CPU and real time character. Besides, they can also be used in medical apparatus measuring other biological electric signals and industrial observation and control system.

This study was aimed to investigate potential biomarkers in different traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndromes of angina pectoris of coronary heart disease (CHD) by using metabolomic technology,and to explore the objective law of different TCM syndromes of CHD.Endogenous metabolites in serum and urine from the healthy group,and patients with DHD angina pectoris patients of the syndrome of Qi deficiency and blood stasis,as well as the syndrome of Qi deficiency,blood stasis and phlegm turbidity were detected by the liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS).Metabolic profiles were analyzed by the principal component analysis (PCA) and the orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA).The results showed that in PCA,the healthy group,Qi deficiency and blood stasis group,as well as the Qi deficiency,blood stasis and phlegm turbidity group can be obviously distinguished.Potential biomarkers in the Qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome contained aspartyl methionine and cysteine sulfinic acid.Potential biomarkers in the Qi deficiency,blood stasis and phlegm turbidity syndrome contained hippuric acid,amino glucose,fructosamine and triglyceride.The objective performance of Qi deficiency syndrome was the absence of biotin,lysyl tyrosine,phosphatidylglycerol and glycocholic acid.It was concluded that through the new metabolomic technology,different endogenous metabolites in the syndrome of Qi deficiency and blood stasis,as well as the syndrome of Qi deficiency,blood stasis and phlegm turbidity of patients with DHD angina pectoris were detected.It provided ideas for the clinical practice of prevention,diagnosis and treatment of different TCM syndromes.

Objective:To establish a GC-MS method for the simultaneous determination of 16 phthalate ester plasticizers in oral liquid preparations, compare the purification effect of liquid preparations by liquid-liquid extraction and solid phase extraction and opti-mize the operating parameters to determine the optimal experimental conditions. Methods:The samples were operated by liquid-liquid extraction and solid phase extraction, respectively. Selective ion monitor ( SIM) was adopt, phthalate esters were identified by the rela-tive abundance of major characteristic ions and the content was determined by an external standard method. Results:When the samples were operated by liquid-liquid extraction, the interference was strong with many impurity peaks. Therefore, the solid phase extraction was adopted for the sample pretreatment. GC-MS was used to detect the residues of 16 phthalate ester plasticizers in oral liquid prepara-tions. The detection limit was 0. 02μg·g-1 ,while the calibration curve showed good linearity within the range of 0. 25-8. 0μg·ml-1 with the correlation coefficient between 0. 990 7 and 0. 999 8. The average recoveries were 76. 0%-95. 4%. The relative standard devi-ations were between 2. 3% and 9. 6%(n=6). Conclusion: Pretreated by solid phase extraction, the residues of 16 phthalate ester plasticizers in oral liquid preparations can be detected by GC-MS with the properties of simple, fast, precise and sensitive, and it is suitable for the determination of phthalate esters in oral liquid preparations.

Background Researches have suggested that the defocus can induce the change of static visual acuity,but whether it produce influence on dynamic visual acuity is not clear.Objective This study was to investigate the impact of myopic defocus on static visual acuity and dynamic visual acuity and explore the essential difierence between static visual acuity and dynamic visual acuity. Methods Forty volunteers were enrolled in this trial.including 20 adults with the age of 27.4±1.64 years and 20 children with the age of 11.70+1.49 years.All the eyes of subjects received regular examined to excluded the eye disease with the best corrected vision of ≥1.0 D,astigmatism of ≤0.75 D and anisometropia ＜1.50 D.+1.00 D,+1.50 D,+2.00 D,+2.50 D slasses were ware respectively for the defocus on the foundation of full correction.Dynamic visual acuity was inspected by using selfmade DVA-I training software.and static visual acuity wag tested by static visual acuity chart (Precision Vision,CAT.NO.2125).This clinical trial complied with the Helsinki Declaration and obtained the approval of Ethic Committee of Wenzhou Medical College.Written informed consent was received from each individual prior to the protocol. Results The dynamic and static visual acuities were gradually decreased with the elevation of defocus (F=506.907,P=0.000).No significant differences were found between static visual acuity and dynamic visual acuity in adult or children at various defocus(P＞0.05).The regression linear analysis showed that a positive correlation between static visual acuity with defoeus(R2=0.819,t=26.72,P=0.000) or dynamic visual acuity with defoeus(R2=0.826,t=27.42,P=0.000).The slope and intercept between defocus with static visual acuity were steeper than that between defocus and dynamic visual acuity (slope:F=34.18,P=0.000;intercept:F=1005.56,P=0.001). Conclusion The effect of defocus on static visual acuity is different from that of dynamic visual acuity.It could be speculated that dynamic visual acuity is related not only to refractive systems but also other factor.

Objective To investigate the effect of photodynamic therapy with chlorin e6 (Ce6) and 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) on mouse model of malignant melanoma. Methods The mouse model of malignant melanoma was established by injecting 0.1 ml A-375 cells (about 2?10 6 cells) under the right hind leg of BALB/c-6 mice,and that the yellowish white node appears at injection site proves the successful model. Twenty-four of 27 successful mouse models were irradiated at the tumor site with semiconductor laser (wavelength 652 nm) with a total dose of 100 J/cm 2 . Before laser exposure,the mice were treated with 10% 5-ALA by topical compress for 2 h or 7.5 mg/kg Ce6 by intraperitoneal injection for 1 hour or 5-ALA topical application combined with intraperitoneal injection of Ce6 (n=6 in each group). Another six mice as control only underwent PDT. One week after PDT,the mice were killed,the tumor mass was peeled off and weighed,whether the metastasis occurred or not was detected,and the tumor,liver,spleen,lung,kidney were sent to histopathological examination. Results The tumor weight in 5-ALA group,Ce6 group,and the combined group had significant difference as compared with control group (P0.05). The dehydration and scab formation and necrosis could be seen in tumor sites at 1 week after PDT. The cell collapse and necrosis,subdermal thrombosis and cell outline clouding could be observed by histopathological examination. Metastasis of melanoma were found in 5-ALA group,Ce6 group,and the combined group. Conclusion PDT with Ce6 and 5-ALA could kill the malignant melanoma effectively in animal experiment but could not affect the metastasis of melanoma.

Objective To construct a library of long serial analysis of gene expression (LongSAGE) and investigate the characteristics of gene expression in the yeast phase of C. albicans. Methods A LongSAGE library was constructed with long serial analysis of gene expression (LongSAGE). Results A total of 17 773 tags, representing specific 7 333 transcripts, were extracted from 1 000 sequence files in the yeast phase of C. albicans. Tags matching single gene accounted for 16.65%, tags matching multiple genes accounted for 6.59%, tags for hypothetical protein accounted for 16.27%, tags for genome and cosmid accounted for 1.64%, and novel tags accounted for 58.86%. Eleven tags in 33 tags whose expression frequencies exceeded 35 may be new expression sequences. Conclusion LongSAGE is not only a powerful method in investigating the gene expression profiling, allowing the analysis of the expression of thousands of transcripts in a quantitative manner without prior sequence information, but also in finding new genes.

Objective To establish a noninvasive method for prenatal genetic analysis by using maternal serum and apply the method in fetal sex determination,paternity testing. Methods Samples of maternal serum from 53 pregnant women (11 to 36 weeks of gestation) were collected. The DNA extracted from each sample was amplified by using"Y-PLEX 6" amplification kit .which enabled the simultaneous analysis of six Y-STR loci including DYS393.DYS19.DYS389 II, DYS390, DYS391 and DYS385. The PCR products were detected by using ABI PrismTM 377 Sequencer and genotyped by related analysis software. Results (1) Y-STR specific alleles were detected in the maternal sera of all 29 mothers bearing male babies. Among the six Y-STR loci,specific alleles were detected in 29/29 at DYS393 locus,in 18/29 at DYS19 locus and in 10/29 at DYS390 locus. (2) Y-STR specific alleles were not detected in maternal sera of 24 pregnant women bearing female babies. (3) According to the presence of specific alleles at DYS393 locus and the value of allelic peak height and peak area, the accuracy of fetal sex determination was 100% . (4)The observed Y-STR alleles of each prenatal specimen from pregnant women with male fetuses were the same as the results of their husbands. Conclusion The assay of highly polymorphic Y-STR genotyping system developed by the authors provided a sensitive, accurate and non-invasive method to prenatal diagnosis. Our results demonstrate that fetal sex can be accurately determined and imply that paternity testing could be performed for pregnant women carrying male fetuses.
