Respiratory tract infection is a common disease in childhood.Virus plays an important role in respiratory disease.With the progresses in molecular technologies in these years,newly discovered viruses have been identified including human metapneumovirus,human coronaviruses,human Bocavirus,polyomaviruses,new enterovirus and rhinovirus strains.These viruses have been identified to cause childhood respiratory infection.This review overviews the newly recognized respiratory viruses and seek to focus on their contribution to infection and co-infection in respiratory tract infection in childhood.

In this paper,a method of solid-phase luminescence immunoassay(LIA)of human alpha-fetoprotein(AFP)is described.The IgG of horse anti-human AFP-IgG was labelled with 6[N-(4-aminobutyl)-N-enthyl]-amino 2,3-dihydrophthalazine 1,4-dione (ABEI).The sensitivity of the method was 6.25ng/ml.The intra and inter coefficientsof variation was 7.9% and 9.8% respectively.The value of AFP of 20 patients assayedby LIA was compared with that assayed by radioimmunoassay(RIA).Although,the datafrom LIA were lower than that assayed by RIA,the results obtained by two methodscorrelated fairly well with a correlation coefficient(r)of 0.95.

Objective To investigate effects of Cocain and amphetamine-regulated transcript(CART) peptides on cerebral ischemic damage and Caspases-3 activities of neurons.Methods 12 mice were randomly divided into CART group and the control group.Mice model of cerebral ischemic was made,after CART group was lateral ventricle injected CART peptides,control group was lateral ventricle injected saline water.Infarction volume was detected by TTC staining.Viability rate of OGD-neurons with CART peptides or salinewater,after mice cortical neuron in vitro was detected by MTT.Caspases-3 activitie was measured by ELISA.Results Infarction volume in the CART group [(0.225?0.044)mm3] was significantly smaller than that in the control group [(0.389?0.055)mm3](P

?Boston Type l keratoprosthesis is currently widely used. ln this article, the indication, number of cases, best-corrected visual acuity ( BCVA ) , retention, and complications in all the international published case reports will be sum up; then the main post-operative complications and their respective treatments one by one, which include retrospective membrane, glaucoma, infection will be introduced.

Network resources can exactly make up for it. Making good use of the search engine can expand extracurricular professional English learning for students;provide teachers with lesson plan-ning material and learners with the correct pronunciation of the vocabulary. Network digital repository offer students learning platform and PBL teaching in the QQ group can be tried. Electronic dictionary software helps to read the professional literature and E-mail is a convenient means of communication. These help to create language environment and enhance bilingual teaching effect.

Blood transfusion in liver surgery still plays an important role.However,blood transfusions may cause immunosuppression recipients and hinder the body' s immune response against the tumor,promotes tumor metastasis and recurrence.How to resolve this contradiction? We must study and research the effects of allogeneic blood transfusion on liver cancer metastasis and recurrence after hepatic resection,and to find strategies to improve the liver cancer prognosis.

Objective To investigate whether polymorphisms of apolipopretein D gene (APOD) have an effect on the risk for sporadic Alzheimer's disease (SAD).Methods Combination of polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) and DNA sequencing technique to screen all exons (1-5),along with flanking exon-intron boundaries of the ApoD gene.We investigated the polymorphisms of ApoD in 256 SAD patients and 294 healthy controls from North China by PCR-RFLP technique.Association of every polymorphism with AD was analyzed in this case-control study.Results Two ApoD (rs5952 and rs1568566) polymorphisms were detected and there were significant differences in the genotype or allele frequencies for the 2 ApoD polymorphisms respectively between cases and controls.Logistic analysis showed that rs5952C or rs1568566T allele carrier increased the risk for SAD (rs5952 adjusted OR=1.817,95% CI 1.237--2.669,χ2=9.282,P=0.002 ; rs1568566 adjusted OR=1.563,95% CI 1.060-2.306,χ2=5.072,P=0.024).The APOD polymorphisms showed gender specific associations.The linkage disequilibrium of the 2 single nucleotide polymorphism loci was found between rs5952 and rs1568566 of ApoD.Conclusion Polymorphisms of rs5952 and rs1568566 in APOD might play an important role in modifying risk for SAD.

Astrocyte elevated gene (AEG) -1 is cloned as a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) -1-inducible and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α)-inducible transcript in primary human fetal astrocytes (PHFA) by a rapid subtraction hybridization approach. AEG-1 has been reported to be up-regulated in various types of human cancers. Multivariate analyses indicat that AEG-1 correlates with the ability of growth, invasion, metastasis, angiogenesis and chemoresistance of tumors. AEG-1 over-expression activates the PI3K-Akt,nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) and Wnt-β-catenin signaling pathways in several crucial aspects of tumorprogression. AEG-1 represents a viable potential target for the therapy of human cancers.

Many studies have shown that the embolism caused by vulnerable atherosclerotic plaque is one of the major causes of ischemic stroke. However, there is still not a simple and precise method to identify the vulnerable plaques yet. This article reviews the various methods for detecting vulnerable plaques from the aspects of serology and imaging.

Objective To explore the preoperative misdiagnosis in the breast cancer and the methods to improve the diagnostic accordance rate. Methods The preoperative diagnosis and results of 358 cases with breast cancer has been analysized retrospectively in the recent ten years. Results Total Cases with present diagnostic technique diagnosed befor operation was 176 only;the accordance rate was less than 50%.With aspiration biopsy and molybdenum palladium roentgenograph,the rate was 25%(79 cases).The actual preoperative accordance rate was less than 10%(32 cases).It is said approximately 90% cases were postoperatively diagnosed. Conclusion The present excision biopsy not only has made many patients lost the chance of chemotherapy preoperation, but also interferenced the application of new therapic methods in the clinical practice.Infrared spectroscopy and ultrasonography have been commonly used in the clinical practice.With the low diagnostic accordance rate,they were applied only for screening.With simplity and high diagnostic accor dance rate,aspiration biopsy and molybdenum pall adium roentgenograph should be enrolled extensively in the clinical practice. The puncture and specimen fixing technique also should be improved.
