To try to find out the possible use of histochemistry in the prenatal diagnosis in first trimester of pregnancy, 20 kinds of enzymes in chorionic villi from 6th to 9th week of gestation which are related to inborn errors of metabolism were investigated and graded according to their histochemical reactive intensity; the enzymes listed below: (1). ?-glucuronidase, (2). ?-galactosidase, (3). arylsulfatase, (4). ?-N-acetylglucosaminidase, (5). 3?-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, (6). NADH dehydrogenase, (7). adenosine triphosphatase, (8). alkaline phosphatase,(9). acid phosphatase, (10). creatine phosphokinase, (11). glutamic dehydrogenase, (12). aldolase, (13). xylitol dehydrogenase, (14). alcohol dehydrogenase, (15). xanthine oxidase, (16). catalase, (17). ornithine carbamoyl transferase, (18). lipase, (19). cholinesterase, (20). ?-glutamyl transpeptidase. The experimental results show that the last 6 kinds of enzymes present negative reactions. Since the his- tochemical reactions of the first 14 kinds of enzymes are positive, it is possible that they can be used for the prenatal diagnosis of inborn errors of metabolism caused by dificiency of corresponding enzymes. The results also show that compared with biochemical method, histochemical method has the advantages of requiring smaller amount of chorionic villi, being without contamination by maternal cells, simplicity and rapidity.

Radiation-induced lung injury is a common complication of thoracic cancer radiotherapy.A lot of animal experiments and clinical studies have shown that ionizing radiation-induced lung injury is a complex process regulated by a variety of cytokines.The transcription factors including nuclear factor κB,MAPK and activator protein-1 are involved in radiation-induced lung injury by regulating the synthesis of a variety ofinflammatory proteins.The flavonoids play a role in radiological protection by blocking the pathway of nuclear factor kB and activator protein-1.

Objective: To observe the effect of cilostazol on the ion channel of right ventricular cells in experimental rats, and to explore the ion channel mechanism of ciolstazol for preventing the ventricular arrhythmia in Brugada syndrome.
Methods: Our research was composed of 2 groups: ①Perfusion group, the cells were treated in 4 sub-groups by cilostazole at 1, 2, 5, 50μmol/L respectively, and there were 9, 5, 3, 7 cells were recorded at each sub-group to observe the differences of current density Ito at before and after treatment. ②Oral group, which included 4 sub-groups:Control 1 with 7 rats, Experiment 1 with 5 rats, and Control 2 with 8 rats, Experiment 2 with 6 rats respectively. The differences of current density Ito and ICa,L were studied between each Control and Experiment sub-groups.
Results: In Perfusion group,①with cilostazole 1, 2, 5, 50μmol/L treatment, the current density Ito decreased in all sub-groups, when the self-command voltage at+60mV, the Ito was signiifcantly different in each sub-group at before and after treatment, all P<0.05.②When each command voltage decreasing, the reduction rates of Ito were similar among 4 sub-groups, all P>0.05. In Oral group,①When the self-command voltage from-50mV reached the maximum of+60mV, the Ito was similar between Control 1 and Experiment 1 sub-groups, P>0.05.②When the self-command voltage at+10mV, the current density of ICa,L was slightly higher in Control 2 sub-group than that in Experiment 2 sub-group, P>0.05.
Conclusion: Direct perfusion of cilostazole in right ventricular cells may inhibit Ito in experimental rats, such effect was similar with cilostazole treatment at (1-50)μmol/L. Cilostazole might prevent the ventricular arrhythmia in Brugada syndrome in experimental rats.

Objective To observe the changes of hospitalization rates of patients with goiter in Lianyungang City in a coastal area with mild iodine deficiency in 2002-2010.Methods Medical reports of patients with goiter from county hospitals were studied at county level with a retrospective method.In accordance with the National Iodized Salt Monitoring Program,nine townships(towns) were taken from each county (district) [total of five counties(districts)]; four villages were selected from each township (town); salt samples were taken from eight households in each village,and salt iodine was determined using direct titration of sodium thiosulfate.Results The hospitalization rate of patient with goiter increased from 1.87/10 million in 2002 to 7.05/10 million in 2009,and then fluctuated to 6.06/10 million in 2010(x2 =281.91,P＜ 0.01).Among them,female's hospitalization rates were significantly higher than that of male 's(The variation range of x2 values were 35.23-116.04,all P ＜ 0.01),and the hospitalization rates of people over the age of 40 years were significantly higher than that of people less than 40 years of age(The variation range of x2 values were 33.04-263.04,all P ＜ 0.01),and the hospitalization rates of people in urban areas were significantly higher than that of people in rural areas (The variation range of x2 values were 18.35-140.00,all P ＜ 0.01).Average salt iodine was 27.61-30.13 mg/kg in 2002-2010.The coverage rate of iodized salt and the consumption rate of qualified iodized salt both increased year by year (x2 =183.75,211.99,P ＜ 0.01).There was a positive correlation between hospitalization rate of patient with goiter and coverage rate of iodized salt(spearman correlation coefficient was 0.83,P ＜ 0.05).There was a positive correlation between hospitalization rate of patient with goiter and the consumption rate of qualified iodized salt too (spearman correlation coefficient was 0.93,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions In Lianyungang City,the hospitalization rate of patient with goiter,the coverage rate of iodized salt and the consumption rate of qualified iodized salt all show upward trend in 2002-2010.The relationship among them is worth further study.

To study the effect of wearing overnight orthokeratology ( OK) contact lens on corneal topography and tears in adolescents.METHODS: The diopter, corneal curvature, corneal surface regularity index ( SRl ) , tear break - up time ( BUT ) , Schirmer l test, and corneal fluorescent ( FL ) were recordedon 40 (80 eyes) adolescent myopia patients (mean age 13. 68±2. 32 years), who had worn OK contact lensfor more than 1 year, with mean spherical equivalent refraction -3. 61 ± 1. 48D before wearing OK contact lens. These indexes were tested and recorded before the patients' wearing OK contact lens and 5 times (1wk and 1, 3, 6, 12mo after the first wearing) during the patients' overnight wearing OK contact lens for 8~10 hours per day.RESULTS: Compared with pre - wearing, at post -wearing OK contact lens 12mo, the mean spherical equivalent refraction was apparently decreased from -3.61±1. 48D to -1. 39±1. 31D(P<0. 01). The corneal curvature was significantly flattened from 42. 29 ± 1. 55D to 40.13±1. 41D (P<0. 01). Mean SRl was increased from 0. 34± 0. 01 to 0. 37 ± 0. 01 ( P<0. 01 ). Mean BUT was decreased from 10. 39±2. 25s to 7. 26±1. 77s (P<0. 01). These indexes were stable at 1wk after wearing OK contact lens overnight and had no significant differences during the following (1, 3, 6, 12mo after wearing) tests (P > 0. 05 ). There were no significant differences on Schirmer▏test during the 12mo of OK wearing(P>0. 05). The cases of corneal fluorescent staining increased were mainly grade l, and the number of corneal staining grade l at 1 wk and 1, 3, 6, 12 mo after wearing were 15 eyes (18. 8%), 9 eyes (11. 3%),13 eyes (16. 3%), 9 eyes (11. 3%), and 12 eyes (15. 0%). BUT of corneal staining grade l wasdecreased significantly, compared with the BUT of corneal staining grade 0 during the 12mo of OK wearing (P<0. 05). CONCLUSlON: OK contact lens can significantly decrease the degree of myopia and K value of corneal curvature without changing tear volume. However, tear film stability weakens, which needs regular follow-up.
