Objective To analyze the MRI features of fibrocystic breast disease (FBD). Methods 39 patients with pathologically proven FBD were retrospectively reviewed. The imaging protocol consisted of pro-contrast imagings and bilateral breast volume im-aging for breast assessme NT(VIBRANT). MRI features were interpreted based on the morphologic and enhancement kinetic de-scriptors defined on ACR DIRADS-MRI lexicon. Results There were 3 types on ACR BI-RADS-MRI lexicon in FBD,including 13 focal mass-type showing malignant enhancement kinetic pattern mostly;15 cyst-type with non-enhancement or mild enhance-ment,of them,1 case with periductal mastiffs showing strong enhancement and rapid up-slope and wash-out mimicking a breast cancer. 6 non-mass type usually showing benign enhancement kinetic pattern. In 5 patients,MRI did not show definite abnormal evi-dence. Conclusion MRI is of significant value in diagnosing FBD.

Objective To study the practicality and repeatability of B-mode ultrasonography on diagnosis and score of carotid atherosclerosis. Methods Ninety-nine B-mode ultrasonography pictures of carotid atherosclerosis were obtained from field investigation. According to the established standard(normal scored as 0, other scored as 1 - 7 by the severity), the 99 pictures were diagnosed and scored once together by three trained inexperienced members of the research team. Ten days later, these pictures were diagnosed and scored respectively, by the three members.The diagnostic results were analyzed with statistical methods to test the feasibility and repeatability of this set of diagnostic and scoring system. Results The joint diagnostic results by the three group members were regard as standard with scores 0 in 27 cases, 1 in 27 cases, 2 in 10 cases, 3 in 4 cases, 4 in 13 cases, 5 in 8 cases, 6 in 6 cases, and 7 in 4 cases. Independent diagnostic results by member A was 0 in 29 cases, 1 in 24 cases, 2 in 11 cases, 3 in 2 cases, 4 in 12 cases, 5 in 11 cases, 6 in 6 cases, and 7 in 4 cases. Independent diagnostic results by member B was 0 in 29 cases, 1 in 22 cases, 2 in 14 cases, 3 in 4 cases, 4 in 13 cases, 5 in 5 cases, 6 in 8 cases, and 7 in 4 cases. Independent diagnostic results by member C was 0 in 28 cases, 1 in 25 cases, 2 in 8 cases, 3 in 5 cases, 4 in 14 cases, 5 in 10 cases, 6 in 4 cases, and 7 in 5 cases. Comparison of the 4 diagnostic scores, the difference was not statistically significant(F = 0.019, P ＞ 0.05). Joint diagnostic results of the three members were compared with the standard and correlation coefficient were 0.977,0.987,0.932, respectively(all P ＜ 0.01 ). The correlation coefficient of diagnostic results of each member were 0.969,0.935,0.928, respectively (all P ＜0.01 ). Diagnostic results of each member were consistent with the standard and the compliance rate were 88.9% (88/99) ,90.9%(90/99) and 86.9%(86/99), respectively. Conclusions B-mode ultrasonography is a non-injure method for diagnosis of carotid atherosclerosis in epidemiology investigation. The method is easy to grasp and has a good repeatability.

Objective To discuss the effects of silencing of iASPP gene on human bladder cancer cells. Methods RNAi silencing of iASPP gene in bladder cancer cell 5637 and T24 cells were used by lentiviral mediated interfering short hairpin RNAs. Cell proliferation was tested by MTT assay, and rate of colony was tested by colony formation assay. Cell cycles were tested by using fluorescence-activated cell sorting. Results Down-regulation of iASPP could inhibit the growth and proliferation of human bladder cancer cells (P＜0.05). iASPP know-down could decrease the colony formation of 5637 and T24 cells (P＜0, 05). Knocking down of iASPP in 5637 and T24 cells showed cell arrested at G1. Conclusions Silencing of iASPP gene could inhibit proliferation and colony formation of bladder cancer, iASPP might be an important target for gene therapy of bladder cancer.

ObjectiveTo observe β cell function in newly diagnosed diabetic patients with ketosis before and in remission period and evaluate its classification and predictive value.MethodsA total of 206 patients newly diagnosed as diabetic ketosis who had been treated with intensive insulin therapy in our hospital and entered in the honeymoon after the withdraw of insulin therapy were followed for 36 months from onset of diabetes.They were divided into two groups of type 1 and type2 diabetes ( group A and B),according to the dependence or independence on insulin treatment. The β cell function of the two groups before and in remission period was compared by oral glucose tolerance test (OGTF).β cell function was measured with the AUC of insulin and C-peptide and homeostatic model assessment β-cell function (HOMA-β),while homeostatic model assessment insulin resistant (HOMA-IR) for insulin resistant.The duration of the honeymoon and the change of insulin and C-peptide curve before and in honeymoon were also observed.ResultsThe AUC of insulin and C-peptide,the HOMA-β and the HOMA-IR before and after the intensive insulin treatment were lower in group A than that in group B [ before the insulin treatment:(10.18 ±2.36)mIU · h · L-1 vs (20.28 ±6.89)mIU · h · L-1,(1.56 ±0.53) μg · h · L-1 vs (3.75 ±0.67) μg · h · L-1,3.68 ± 1.08 vs 18.20 ±6.59,1.22 ±0.49 vs 3.06 ± 1.54,respectively;after the insulin treatment:(29.86 ± 8.65 ) mIU · h · L-1 vs (93.35 ± 19.42 ) mIU · h · L-1,( 3.99 ± 0.79 )μg · h · L-1 vs ( 12.54 ±3.83) μg · h · L-1,8.50 ±2.46 vs 56.17 ± 19.42,0.63 ±0.56 vs 1.42 ±0.78,respectively ].The duration of the honeymoon in group A was significantly shorter than in group B [ (7.9 ±5.2) months vs (20.9 ± 9.9 ) months ].In oral glucose insulin and C-peptide release test,the peak of insulin and C-peptide releasing curve in group A was brought forward by a half to 1 hour after intensive treatment while delayed in group B by 1 or 2 hours.The releasing peak of insulin and C-peptide in group A was less than two folds of the basic value,while four to ten fold of the basic value in group B.The positive ratio of glutamic acid decarboxylase antibody,insulin autoantibody and insular cellular antibody in group A and group B were 21.2％ vs 4.8％,18.1％ vs 3.3％,9.2％ vs 10.6％,respectively.ConclusionsOf all the patients newly diagnosed as diabetes ketosis who had entered into the honeymoon after intensive insulin therapy,91％ were type 2 diabetes.Inferior β cell function before insulin therapy,weaker remission after insulin therapy and shorter duration of remission period suggest the classification of type 1 diabetes.

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is the leading cause of chronic liver diseases worldwide.There is no vaccine to prevent HCV infection.Current standard of care (SOC) for hepatitis C is pegylated interferon-α (pegIFN-α) in combination with ribavirin (RBV).However,the efficacy of pegIFN-α and RBV combination therapy is less than 50％ for genotype 1 HCV,which is the dominant virus in human.Additionally,IFN and RBV are highly toxic,causing severe side effects.Therefore,it is urgent to develop safer and more efficacious anti-HCV drugs.Over the last decade,a number of HCV-specific inhibitors have been discovered with many of them reached to late stages of clinical trials.Recently,2 HCV NS3 protease inhibitors,telaprevir and boceprevir,have been approved by the Unite States Food and Drug Administration (FDA).This opens up a new era for anti-HCV therapy.Several new classes of antiviral drugs targeting HCV NS3 protease,NS5A and NSSB RNA-dependence RNA polymerase (RdRp) are currently at various stages of preclinical and clinical studies.Upon approval of more NS3 protease,NS5A and NS5B polymerase inhibitors,future clinical studies will lead to optimal combination therapies which will have desirable parameters such as IFN-free,higher efficacy,safe,one daily dose and short duration.
