Objective To explore the expression of transcriptional regulation factor FHL 1 in pancreatic fibrosis of chronic pancreatitis (CP) and clinical significance.Methods Serum samples from 20 CP patients treated in the Department of Gastroenterology , Nanjing General Hospital and 20 healthy controls in the corresponding period were collected .The level of FHL1 in the serum was detected by ELISA .Twenty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into control group and CP group according to the body weight .The CP rat model was established by injecting dibutyltin dichloride ( DBTC) through tail vein .All the rats were killed at 28 days after injection and the pancreas was collected , which was observed using hematoxylin and eosin ( HE) staining to investigate pathological changes . The expression of FHL1 in pancreas was measured by immunohistochemistry (IHC) and Western blotting (WB).Results The average of serum FHL1 level in two groups were (0.86 ±0.22)g/L and (1.18 ±0.22)g/L, respectively.The level of FHL1 in serum of CP patients was significantly lower than that of healthy cases , and the difference was statistically significant (t=10.54, P=0.001).Damaged pancreatic lobular structure , acinar atrophy and the obvious fibrous hyperplasia were observed in CP rats .The pathological score of abnormal structure , acinar atrophy, fibrosis, and inflammatory cell infiltration in the pancreas of the CP group was (2.2 ±0.4),(2.0 ±0.7),(2.4 ±0.3) and (2.8 ±0.6), respectively, but was all 0 in control group.The difference between two group was statistically significant ( t value =17.24, 9.01, 25.22 and 14.75, respectively, all P<0.001).The expression of FHL1 in the pancreatic tissue of CP group were less than that of normal group , and the difference was statistically significant (IHC:15 798 ±3 247 vs 37 570 ±9 254, t=2.438,P=0.016;WB:0.44 ±0.11 vs 0.89 ±0.03, t=4.289, P=0.002).Conclusions The protein of FHL1 was in low expression in the pancreas of CPs , indicating that FHL1 may participate in the formation of pancreatic fibrosis .

Objective To explore the role and their relationship of Ki-67, VEGF and p27 expressed in adult patients with acute leukemia. Methods The expression of Ki-67, VEGF and p27 in bone marrow mononuclear cells (BMMNC) were analyzed by immunocytochemical staining, and their correlations of Ki-67, VEGF and p27 were statistically analyzed. Results The expression of Ki-67(42.48±25.78)% or VEGF (44.89±24.01)% on BMMNC from acute leukemia cells was significantly higher than that in the control (11.40±9.94)% or (16.90±12.54)% (P<0.01). But the expression of p27 (23.65±13.30)% was significantly lower than that in the control (50.23±22.68)% (P<0.01). The expressions of Ki-67 were positively correlated with and VEGF in patients with acute leukemia were positively correlated(r=-0.666, P<0.01), and the expressions of Ki-67 and p27 were negatively correlated with p27 in patients with acute leukemia (r=-0.316, P<0.05).Conclusion The evaluation of expression of Ki-67, VEGF and p27 on acute leukemic cells provides new insights to the pathogenesis is helpful in mechanism and is helpful in the diagnosis of acute leukemia.

Objective To study the relationship between hepatitis B virus(HBV)pre-S gene mutations and progression of liver disease.Methods The entire pre-S1,pre-S2 genes were amplified hy nested polymerase chain reaction(PCR)and the products were digested by NlaⅢ.The method for detecting pre-S2 start codon mutation was established based on the digested restriction fragment length polymorphism(RFLP).Pre-S gene deletion was revealed by electrophoresis on polyacrylamide gel(PAGE).Pre-C A1896 and basic core promoter T1762/A1764 mutations were identified by direct sequencing of PCR products.The 138 sera from patients with HBV-related disease,including asymp- tomatic carriers(ASC),chronic hepatitis(CH),liver cirrhosis(LC),hepatocarcinoma(HCC),were tested by these methods.Results The detection rate of pre-S deletion mutation was higher in patients with HCC(56.3%)and LC(42.9%)than those with CH(11.8%)and ASC(8.1%,P

· Application of capsular tension ring ( CTR ) in phacoemulsification has become a common method to increase the stability of the capsular bag. CTR can effectively reduce the posterior capsular opacification ( PCO) , prevent intraocular lens ( lOL ) decentration and tilt, not cause lOL degree deviation and aberration increase.ln this review, we summarized the development overview of CTR in phacoemulsification.

Objective To investigate the characteristics of children′s recurrent abdominal pain(RAP) with gastroscopy and analyze the etiology.Methods Three hundred and thirteen children were investigated with gastroscopy.Gastric antrum mucosa was taken for histo-pathology and the determination of helicobacter pylori(Hp) antibody.Results Ninty-nine point six eight percent of the cases had lesions under the gastroscope.The former 4 cases had chronic superficial gastritis(CSG),CGS and bile reflux,CGS and duodenitis,CGS and bulb ulcer,and Hp infection rate was 31.36%,25%,38.64%,60.61%.Hp infection rates of active gastritis and inactive gastritis were 92% and 23.19%,which showed significant differences in 2 groups(P
