Objective To study the effectiveness of comprehensive control measures based on systematic ecological system construction to interrupt the transmission of schistosomiasis in hilly endemic regions in Sichuan Province ,so as to provide the ev?idence for adjustment of schistosomiasis prevention and control strategies. Methods A high endemic area of schistosomiasis, Panao Township of Dongpo District in Meishan City,was selected as a demonstration area. The comprehensive measures for schistosomiasis control with focus on systematic ecological management were implemented,and the income of residents,index?es of schistosomiasis control effect and so on were investigated before and after the intervention and the results were compared. Results The project based on systematic ecological system construction started in 2009 and 317.351 million Yuan was put into the construction. The construction included economic forest plant base(1 866.68 hm2,72.66%of the total farmland areas),eco?logical protection gardens(585.35 hm2)and so on. Totally 97.04% of historical areas with Oncomelania hupensis snails were comprehensively improved. In 2015,the peasants' pure income per capita increased 4 938 Yuan,with the average annual growth rate of 14.69%. All the farm cattle were replaced by the machine. The benefit rate of water improvement was increased by 52.84%and the coverage rate of harmless toilets increased by 18.30%. The positive rate of serological tests for schistosomiasis decreased from 7.69%to 3.50%,and the positive rate of parasitological tests decreased from 1.18%to 0. The area with snails was decreased from 23.33 hm2 to 0. The awareness rate of schistosomiasis control knowledge and correct behavior rate of the resi? dents increased from 85.50%and 82.60%to 95.70%and 93.90%respectively. Conclusions The comprehensive schistosomia?sis control measures based on systematic ecological management are conform to the currently actual schistosomiasis prevention and control work in hilly endemic regions,and have good ecological economic benefit and schistosomiasis control effectiveness, which provide an effectively new model of prevention and control for advancing process,consolidating the effect,finally realiz?ing goal of interruption and elimination of schistosomiasis in hilly endemic regions.

Dutch medical humanities education curriculum framework covers many disciplines which satisfies the professional requirements. The design and materials for teaching are based on re-search and practice driven; teachers' cooperation is full of experts from transnational, trans-regional, interdisciplinary, theory and practice. the Dutch university medical humanities provide a reference for China's medical humanities education curriculum reform as follows:the goal of medical humanities ed-ucation is for the medical practice but not intriguing sideline; the whole process of the students' par-ticipation mechanism should be full of support, supervision and examination;and the source of teachers should be multi-interdisciplinary and also from practice.

Objective To optimize the best subculture cycle through studying the influence of subculture time on tube plantlet growth of Dendrobium huoshanense and the change of medium composition.Methods Height,tiller,fresh weight,and chlorophyll content of the tube plantlet and pH value,water content,and sugar content of the medium were measured after different cycles of the subculture,the cost of culture medium for subculture was calculated as well.Results The height of the tube plantlet increase 282.86%,the tiller increase by 3.5 times,fresh weight reaches its maximum,chlorophyll content of the tube plantlet almost reaches its maximum after 40 d subculture;while water content and sugar content of the medium are decreased to the lowest point,pH value of medium(

OBJECTIVETo investigate the expression of long non-coding RNA-HOTAIR in prostate cancer cells and its effects on the growth and metastasis of the cells.

METHODSUsing quantitative reverse-transcription PCR (qRT-PCR), we determined the relative expression of HOTAIR in the normal human prostate epithelial cell line RWPE-I and prostate cancer cell lines PC-3 and DU145. We detected the effects of HOTAIR on the cell cycle and invasiveness of prostate cancer cells by RNA interference, flow cytometry, and Transwell mitration assay.

RESULTSThe expressions of HOTAIR in the PC3 and DU145 cells were increased 3.2 and 5.7 times, respectively, as compared with that in the normal RWPE-1 cells. After si-HOTAIR interference, the prostate cancer cells were arrested in the G2 phase and downregulated in the G1 phase. The invasive ability of the prostate cancer cells was evidently inhibited, with the inhibition rates of 32% and 44% of the PC3 cells and 43% and 34% of the DU145 cells for si-HOTAIR1 and si-HOTAIR2, respectively.

CONCLUSIONIncRNA HOTAIR is highly expressed in prostate cancer, which is associated with the growth and invasiveness of prostate cancer cells. HOTAIR is potentially a novel marker for the diagnosis and prognosis of prostate cancer.

Objective To observe the clinical characteristics of progressive stroke (PS) patients with vascular stenosis and the relationship between PS and cerebral blood flow (CBF). Methods Fifteen patients of PS with anterior circulation vascular stenosis were chosen, their clinical documents and CBF were analyzed with Xenon-CT when they were in progression. Results These patients mostly presented hemiparalysis and language dysfunction at the beginning ( 13/15 ) before the disease developed rapidly into a serious state. The infarction usually happens in the periventricular area (10/15). Upper limbs paralyzed more severely than low limbs(11/15). Cerebral hypoperfusion areas around the infarction in 11 patients ( 10 ml·100 g-1·min-1 < CBF < 20 ml·100 g-1·min-1 ) were found. Conclusions Patients of PS with vascular stenosis present typically clinical characteristics, Low CBF caused by cerebral artery stenosis may be one of the most important factors leading to PS.

Objective To investigate the effect of vitamin D (VD) on gastric cancer and its underlying mechanisms by detecting serum VD levels in gastric cancer patients and the expression of vitamin D receptor (VDR) in gastric tumor.Methods Serum VD levels was detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay,VRD expression of tumor tissue and normal mucosa were detected by immunohistochemistry.At the same time,relationships of VDR expression and the prognosis of the patients were analyzed.Results The serum levels of VD of gastric cancer patients were lower than that of healthy people (P＜0.05),and they were negatively related to the degree of cell differentiation significantly (P＜0.001).VDR expression in gastric tumor tissue significantly decreased compared to that of the normal mucosa (P＜0.05).A significant correlation was found between the VDR expression and the differentiation grade of the carcinoma,with well differentiated carcinoma having the highest level of VDR expression (P＜0.05).For patients with gastric cancer,those with positive VDR expression had significant longer progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) than the patients with negative VDR expression (P＜0.05).Conclusions VD may be a protecting factor of gastric cancer.VDR can be regarded as a marker of differentiation of gastric cancer and served as an effective prognostic factor in patients with postoperative gastric cancer.
