Objective To investigate insulin-like growth factor-1(IGF-1) on the protective effect of infant myocarditis.Methods The serum levels of IGF-1 was detected by two-site enzyme-linked immunosorbent assy ( ELISA) and CK-MB by electrochemiluminescence at the acute and convalescent in 50 infant with myocarditis,and 50 normal healthy children as the controls.Results The serum levels of IGF-1 in acute myocarditis was significantly lower than those of healthy children and the convalescen[(22.90 ±9.30) mg/L vs (45.69 ±10.95) mg/L, (38.99 ±9.06)mg/L,all P<0.01],while the CK-MB was significantly higher than those of the control group and the convalescent[(77.48 ±8.71)mg/L vs (14.99 ±7.62)mg/L,(17.99 ±6.31)mg/L,all P<0.01.IGF-1 and CK-MB was negative correlation (r=-0.62,P<0.01).Conclusion IGF-1 is involved in the repair process of myocardial injury in myocarditis infant,and play some protective role in the mechanism.

Theapplicationofinternalextractiveelectrosprayionizationmassspectrometry(iEESI-MS)was extended to direct molecular analysis of garlic tissues. By obviating time-consuming sample preparations, fragile active garlic substances such as organosulfur compounds ( e. g. , alliin, allicin ) were successfully detected and identified via collision-induced dissociation ( CID) , together with amino acids ( e. g. , arginine) and saccharides ( glucose, polysaccharides) . Mass spectral fingerprints of different kinds of garlic cloves, as well as various post-treatment ones, were further processed via principal component analysis ( PCA) to better visualize the differences. Our experimental results indicated that iEESI-MS allowed rapid recognition of metabolic changes in the garlic tissue subject to various external stimuli. The merits included simplicity of analysis, high speed ( less than 2 min per sample ) , good specificity, and minimal disturbance to the bioactivity of analytes.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of ESWL combined with urinary stone decoction and ear acupoint pressure for the patients with renal and ureteral calculi.Methods A total of 110 patients with renal and ureteral calculi were randomly divided into the Chinese medicine (CM) and conventional groups, 55 in each group. Both groups were given ESWL treatment as basic treatment. Chinese medicine group were given the urinary stone decoction and auricular acupressure, and the conventional group used stone granules. Both groups were treated for 2 weeks. According to the photography of ultrasound, the changes of calculi, time of lithagogue, pain relief after operation and the effect rates of pain relief on abdomen and waist, of remission of haematuria, and of urinate pain. ResultsAfter treatment, the successful rates of operation in the CM group was 90.9% (50/55), and conventional group was 76.4% (42/55). There was significant difference between 2 groups (χ2=4.251,P=0.009). The time of stone removal in CM group was significantly shorter than that in the conventional group (7.3 ± 3.8 dvs. 11.2 ± 4.3 d,t=4.032,P<0.001). After 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th days, the VAS pain scores in the CM group were significantly lower than those in the conventional group (4.1 ± 0.8vs. 5 ± 1.2,t=4.783;4.5 ± 0.9vs. 5.3 ± 1.3,t=4.492; 3.8 ± 0.8vs. 4.5 ± 0.8,t=4.503; 2.2 ± 0.8vs. 2.9 ± 0.9,t=3.691; allP<0.01). After 7th day, the rates of abdominal pain relief was 60% (33/55), pain relief was 79.1% (34/43), the remission of hematuria was 81% (17/21) in the CM group, and the control group were 40% (22/55), 59.6% (28/47), 52% (13/25). There were significant differences between 2 groups on these indices (χ2 values were 4.400, 3.982, 4.217,P values were 0.036, 0.046, 0.040).Conclusions The ESWL combined with urinary stone decoction and ear acupoint pressure could improve the symptoms of patients with kidney ureteral stones.

Objective:To study the relationship of Guangxi Zhuang women being infected by HPV16 and suffering from cervical cancer with HLA-DQB1 allele polymorphism.Provide clues for seeking hereditary susceptibility gene or resistant gene of cervical cancer of Guangxi Zhuang women.Methods:Chose the cervical cancer diagnosed female patients and health women 171 cases respectively aged between 25 and 45 of Guangxi as subject investigated(people in the two groups were paired by age ±3 years).Took their samples to extract HPV DNA and human genome DNA.Then detected HLA-DQB1 alleles and HPV genetype applying PCR-SSP and molecular diversion hybrid technology.Finally the data were statistically analyzed.Results:(1)The total infection rate of HPV in 171 cases of cervical cancer patient was 91.22%,in which the high-risk virus accounted for 90.76%,HPV16 was the main pathogenic subtypes(43.58%).(2)The allele carrying rate of HLA-DQB1*04 in the cervical cancer group was higher than the health control group with statistically significant difference(P<0.05).The allele carrying rate of HLA-DQB1*06/09 in the cervical cancer group was lower than the health control group with statistically significant difference(P<0.05).There was no significant difference of the allele carrying rate of HLA-DQB1*02/05/07/08 between two groups(P>0.05).(3)The occurrence frequency of HLA-DQB1*04 alleles in HPV16 positive cervical cancer patients was significantly higher than HPV16 negative patients with statistically significant difference(P<0.05).Conclusion:HLA-DQB1*04 alleles are probably the susceptibility genes of cervical cancer of Guangxi Zhuang women;HLA-DQB1*06/09 alleles are probably the protective genes of cervical cancer of Guangxi zhuang women;HLA-DQB1*02/05/07/08 alleles seem irrelevant to hereditary susceptibility of cervical cancer of Guangxi Zhuang women.And Guangxi Zhuang women carried HLA-DQB1*04 alleles are more likely to infect HPV16 that increase the risk of cervical cancer.

OBJECTIVE To observe the bacterial biofilm formation on indwelling double J stent in the human body.METHODS A prospective study of 42 cases with double J stent indwelling in the human body after operation was conducted.The stent was divided into 4 segments then detected microbiologicaly in a separate manner and observed with scanning electron microscope for the presence of bacterial biofilm.RESULTS From 42 cases with douple J stent,only one case was without any bacteria in four segments.20 cases(47.6%) had the same bacteria in four segments.The bacterial positive rate of each segment was pelvic segment(81.0%),upper ureter segment(64.3%),lower ureter segment(71.4%) and bladder segment(83.3%);totally 18 kinds and 126 bacterial strains were flund.the most popular pathogens were Escherichia coli(23.0%),Pseudomonas aeruginosa(15.9%),corynebacterium(15.1%) and Staphylococcus epidermidis(13.5%).On the surface of unused double J stent,there was uneven but clean,without any attachment and encrustation,but on the surface of double J stent indwelling in the human body,the inflammatory affachment and encrustation were observed as well as bacterial biofilm,encapsulated in the abundant fibrous membrane.CONCLUSIONS Our study found that bacterial biofilm can be encrustated on the surface of double J stent indwelling in the human body,it may be one of the reasons for catheter-associated urinary tract infection.
