OBJECTIVE To investigate the significance of diagnosis of tempanosclerosis by HRCT combined with pure tone audiometry. METHODS 176 patients(181 ears) with chronic suppurative otitis media in stationary phase were recruited in Guizhou Medical University Affiliated Hospital between January 2014 to December 2015. Temporal bone HRCT combined with pure tone audiometry were applied to all patients before operation to diagnose tempanosclerosis. Intraoperative exploration results was the gold standard to observe sensitivity, specificity, positive likelihood ratio and the difference of accuracy of two diagnostic methods. RESULTS 1. The sensitivity, specificity, positive likelihood, negative likelihood ratio and accuracy of tympanosclerosis diagnosed only by temporal bone HRCT were 58.55%, 93.10%, 8.49, 0.46 and 64.09% respectively. 2. The sensitivity, specificity, positive likelihood, negative likelihood ratio and accuracy of tympanosclerosis diagnosed by HRCT combined with pure tone audiometry were caculated as 94.08%, 89.66%, 9.09, 0.01 and 93.37% respectively. Type I diagnostic accordance rate was 89.66%, type II was 87.50%, type III was 84.62%and type IV was 82.14%. The total diagnosis coincidence rate was 86.18%. The diagnostic efficacy increased significantly by the combined method than by the temporal bone HRCT alone. CONCLUSION Temporal bone HRCT combined with pure tone audiometry is valuable in diagnosis of tympanosclerosis. It can provide theoretical basis for making optimal operation scheme in suspect tympanosclerosis patients.

Objective To investigate the process of apoptosis in lungs and liver induced by crushing hindlimbs of rat, and study the mechanismof crush injury. Methods The rat experimental model of hindlimbs crush injury was established. The cell apoptosis in lungs and liver was detected by TUNEL assay, and the expression of Bax, Bcl-2 and caspase-3 apoptin was examined by immunohistochemistry. Results C ompared with the control group, the partial muscle injury of rat’s hindlimbs was more serious with more apoptosis observed in lungs and liver (P<0.05). The expression of Bax was up-regulated and Bcl-2 was down-regulated, whereas caspase-3 expression was activated (P<0.05). Conclusion The cell apoptosis has increased significantly in lungs and liver after crush injury of hindlimbs in rat. The corre-lation factor released during tissue injury may mediate apoptosis process.

Objective To investigate whether echocardiography left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and NT-proBNP could be an early detective marker for patients with untypical NSTE-ACS. Methods A total of 248 ACS cases admitted to the emergency department of our hospital from January 1,2015 to June 31,2016 were retrospectively reviewed. The data included age,gender,past medical history,D-dimer,MB isoenzyme of creatine kinase(CK-MB),cardiac troponin I(cTnI),the precursor of the N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP),electrocardiogram(ECG)before treatment,and the CK-MB,cTnI and LVEF,the treatment of percuta-neous coronary intervention(PCI)or thrombolytic by drugs. Survival condition and time from onset to death were recorded. According to the results of multivariate logistic regression analysis ,receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC curve)and fitting curve were drawn. The association between the LVEF and NT-proBNP before the treatment and prognosis of ACS was analyzed. Results NSTE-ACS patients with chief complaint of chest pain were less than those of STE-ACS(33.6% vs. 70.1%,P=0.003). Pre-hospital time was longer than that of STE-ACS group(67.92 ± 116.89 vs. 30.65 ± 55.59,P = 0.006). CTNI(4.37 ± 12.53 vs. 9.62 ± 18.00,P=0.011)and LVEF(53.51 ± 14.51 vs. 56.26 ± 12.30,P=0.019)were less than that of the STE-ACS group. NT-proBNP was higher than that of the STE-ACS group(2288.37 ± 4612.10 vs. 1506.84 ± 1722.51,P=0.038). mortality rates was higher than the STE-ACS group((15.3%vs. 6.8%,P=0.036). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that LVEF values was correlated to 28-day death(B =-0.097 ,P=0.022). The ROC curves showed that LVEF values was negative correlated with the 28-day death. However,combination of LVEF and NT-proBNP was better than single LVEF values. LVEF values was negative correlated with the NT-proBNP(r =-0.263,P=0.001), LVEF values had greater and longer survival time(B=0.401,P=0.045)but NT-proBNP was not related to surviv-al time.(B=0.00,P=0.931). Conclusion LVEF and NT-proBNP are correlated with the early risk assessment of patients with ACS,but was not correlated with the time from onset to death. The decrease in LVEF values at the early stage of NSTE-ACS may be helpful to indicate the critical condition of the ACS patients.

Objective To investigate the influence of kaempferol on transforming growth factor(TGF)-β1/Smads signal trans-duction in liver tissue of mice with schistosomiasis liver fibrosis. Methods Forty BALB/c mice were randomly divided into a normal control group(8 mice),a praziquantel group(8 mice ),and 4 praziquantel+kaempferol groups with different kaempfer-ol dosages(5,10,15,20 mg/kg respectively,6 mice each group). Besides the normal control group,all the mice in the other 5 groups were infected with Schistosoma japonicum. After the infection for 6 weeks,the praziquantel group and the 4 praziquantel+ kaempferol groups were treated with praziquantel 500 mg/(kg · d) for 2 d,then the mice in the praziquantel group were drenched with normal saline for 6 weeks,and those in the 4 praziquantel+kaempferol groups were drenched with kaempferol 5, 10,15,20 mg/kg respectively for 6 weeks. After the treatment,all the animals were sacrificed by the cervical dislocation meth-od,and the area of egg granuloma and the degree of fibrosis in the livers of the mice were observed by HE and Masson staining. The expressions of TGF-β1,Smad2/3,Smad7 proteins were measured by the immunohistochemical method,and the mRNA lev-els of the 3 proteins were detected by RT-PCR. Results Compared with the mice in the praziquantel group,the areas of egg granuloma of the liver of the mice in the 4 praziquantel+kaempferol groups were smaller,and the degrees of the hepatic fibrosis of the mice were lesser,and their expressions of Smad2 and Smad3 at protein and their mRNA levels were significantly lower (all P<0.05),while the expression of Smad7 at protein and its mRNA level were significantly higher(all P<0.05). Conclu-sion By decreasing the expressions of TGF-β1 and Smad2/3,and increasing the expression of Smad7,kaempferol can signifi-cantly reduce the degrees of hepatic fibrosis and granuloma caused by schistosome eggs after the praziquantel treatment.

Objective:This study aims to analyze the epidemiological data of 2 829 cases of head and neck cancer, as well as pro-vide guidance and basis for the prevention and treatment of head and neck cancer among the inhabitants of Xinjiang. Methods:Data on head and neck cancers diagnosed at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University between January 2002 and December 2011 were collected, and constituent ratios were analyzed. Results:The sample consisted of 1 657 (58.57%) males and 1 172 (41.43%) females, with a male-to-female ratio of 1.4:1. Median age was 55 years, mainly distributed in the range of 40 years to 69 years. Patients within this age group constituted 63.38% of the total patients. Ethnic groups comprising the samples were as follows: Han, 59.5%;Uygur, 27.7%;Kazakh, 6.3%;Hui, 3.1%;and Mongol, 1.6%. Other ethnic groups constituted 1.6%of the sample. The five cancers with the highest constituent ratios were oral cancer, thyroid carcinoma, laryngeal cancer, nasopharyngeal cancer, and nasal sinus cancer. The five most common cancers diagnosed in males were oral cancer, laryngeal cancer, nasopharyngeal cancer, nasal sinus cancer, and thy-roid carcinoma;those in women were thyroid carcinoma, oral cancer, nasal sinus cancer, nasopharyngeal carcinoma, and facial skin can-cer. The five most common cancers by ethnic groups were identified as follows:thyroid carcinoma, oral cancer, laryngeal cancer, naso-pharyngeal cancer, and nasal sinus cancer in Han patients;oral cancer, nasopharyngeal cancer, nasal sinus cancer, thyroid carcinoma, and laryngeal cancer in Uygur patients;and oral cancer, thyroid cancer, nasal sinus cancer, laryngeal cancer, and oropharyngeal and hy-popharyngeal cancer in Kazakh patients. Conclusion:Efforts toward cancer prevention should be focused on oral and thyroid cancers. Sufficient attention is needed for the prevention and treatment of laryngeal, nasopharyngeal, and nasal sinus cancer in the Xinjiang area.
