Objective To evaluate the expression and discussion on high mobility group protein ( HMGB1 )/toll like receptor 4 ( TLR4 ) and NF-κB possible role in the signaling pathway in preeclampsia .Methods Ten patients with mild preeclampsia(MP), 20 patients with severe preeclampsia (SP) and 30 cases of normal pregnancy were recruited the same period.To check the expression of the HMGB1,TLR4,NF-κB P65 protein in placenta tissue using Immunohistochemical staining .Levels of HMGB1, TLR4, NF-κB P65 in blood serum were measured by ELISA.Results 1)ExpressionofHMGB1,TLR4,NF-κBP65wereincreasedascomparetocontrolgroup(P<0.05);HMGB1,TLR4,NF-κB P65 in placenta of patients with severe preeclampsia and mild preeclampsia failed to show significant difference .2) HMGB1,TLR4,NF-κB P65 in women with preeclampsia was significantly higher than control group ( P<0.05 ); HMGB1,TLR4,NF-κB P65 in women with severe preeclampsia showed a higher level as compared to mild preeclampsia (P<0.05).Conclusions HMGB1,TLR4 and NF-κB P65 were over-ex-pressed in the placenta tissue and serum in patients with preeclampsia , which indicated that HMGB1,TLR4 and NF-κB P65 may play an important role in the development of preeclampsia .

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of transrectal ultrasound guided systematic 13 cores prostate biopsy. Methods A total of 160 patients referred for abnormal digital rectal examination and (or) prostate specific antigen 4ng/ml or greater underwent transrectal ultrasound guided systematic 13 cores prostate biopsy.That was,in addition to the standard sextant biopsies,cores were taken from the far lateral and middle regions of the gland as described by Eskew.Pathological findings of the additional regions were compared with those of the sextant regions. Results Of the patients 35 % had cancer on biopsy(56 /160).Of the 56 patients with prostate cancer 12(21%)had carcinoma only in the additional regions,which would be undetected on the sextant biopsy technique (P

Purpose To find the reasons and explore the appropriate countermeasures for failure ureteroscopy operation.Methods The clinical data of 74 cases with failure ureteroscopy operation for ureteral calculi were analysed respectively.Results The failure reasons including the difficult of ureteroscopy insert (46 lateral),difficult of calculi disposal (12 lateral) and ureteral injure (15 lateral).ESWL(34 sides) and open surgery(44 sides) were remedial measures after failure ureteroscopy and the success rates were 85 3%, 100% respectively.nephrectomy were carried out in and 1 case died from serious uriaemia.The mortality was only 1.4%.Conclusions The reasons of failure including unable approach the stone, difficult to disposal calculi and ureteral injury. The effect is related to applicances, experience, indications . ESWL and open surgery are the suitable remedy measures according to the failure reason.

Objective To analyze the restricted usage of TCRβ V/J subfamily and CDR3 repertoire in patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma unspecified (U-PTL).Methods The total RNA was respectively extracted from lymph node of U-PTL and reverse transcriptase,then multi-PCR was used to amplify the complete DNA sequence(CDS) of TCR β-chain.The recombinant plasmids were sequenced and sequence was analyzed by using online TCR resources.Results There were 9 TCR β chain CDS obtained from four patients.TCRβ-chain presented specific repertoire skewing in patients with U-PTL.There were restricted usage of BV2,BV4S2,BV14,BV29S1 of BV subfamily and BJ1S4,BJ2S3,BJ2S5,BJ2S7 of BJ subfanily.The clonal proliferation T cells had different CDR3 amino acid sequences.Conclusions There are restricted usage of TCR β V/J subfamily in patients with U-PTL.The sequences of CDR3 in different TCR clone proliferation are mostly different.

Objective To discuss the technique′s characteristics, manifestation, clinical application, and limit in normal and abnormal pediatric airway by using CTVB (CT virtual bronchoscopy) in comparison with FOB (fiberoptic bronchoscopy). Methods Spiral scans were performed by a GE Hispeed spiral scanner in 113 pediatric chests The reformed images of 45 patients were transported to a workstation by which 3 D reconstructions were performed with a software named Navigator and CTVB was generated Results Bronchi were manifested 100% in grades Ⅰ-Ⅲ, 46 7% and 13 3% were revealed in grade Ⅳ and V with CTVB, respectively FOB can only enter grade Ⅰ-Ⅲ bronchi, only 62 2% of the lobar bronchi can be manifested by FOB The findings of CTVB were stenosis ( n =34), occlusion ( n =11), and mass ( n =16) Only 3 radiotransparent foreign bodies and 2 inflammatory emboli were misdiagnosed as tumors, the rest was consistent with FOB Conclusion CTVB is an important supplement to conventional CT, CTVB can detect intraluminal space occupying lesions and occlusions or stenosises caused by all kinds of causes,but lack specificity CTVB can fly through the occlusions or stenosises of the lumen and enter the distal bronchi, thus can make up for the disadvantages of FOB It can′t make the diagnosis independently and must join together the CT primitive the diagram resemble or rebuild the diagram resemble proceeds to synthesize the analysis

Objective:To investigate the effect of a low calcium diet on the distal and proximal tibial metaphysis in male rats using bone histomorphometrical techniques. Methods:Forty 3-month-old male Sprague-Dawley(SD) rats, with a mean weight of 280?22g, were randomized into five groups. Group one and group two were fed a normal diet (Ca 1.0%) and a very low calcium diet (VLCD ,Ca 0.1%) respectively for one month,and the rest three groups were fed a normal diet (Ca 1.0%), a very low calcium diet (VLCD, Ca 0.1%) and a low calcium diet (LCD , Ca 0.3%) respectively for three months. All animals received double bone fluorochrome labeling prior to sacrifice. At the end of experiment, the left tibiae were harvested for bone histomorphometrical evaluations. Results:After one month, compared to control group, distal tibial metaphysis(DTM) of VLCD did not change significantly but proximal tibial metaphysis(PTM) was decreased significantly whose percent trabecular area (%Tb.Ar) was decreased to 38% (P

Objective To evaluate the alteration of CD4+ regulatory T cells in peripheral blood from patients with ankylosing spondylitis(AS). Methods Seventy-eight AS patients and 50 healthy individuals were included in this study. The proportion of CD4+CD25+CD127lo/- T cell population in CD4+ T cells as well as that cytotoxic T lymphocytes(CTL) and NK cells in lymphocytes was evaluated by flow cytometry. Serum TGF-β and TNF-α were measured by ELISA. The inhibitory function of CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells was measured by mixed lymphocyte culture. Results The population of CD4+CD25+CD127lo/- T cells in peripheral blood of AS patients accounted for (4.36±1.21)% of CD4+ T lymphocytes, which was significantly lower than that in healthy individuals (P<0.05). The CD4+CD25+CD127lo/- T cells population in AS patients was positively correlated with TGF-β level, but negatively with TNF-α. Compared with healthy individuals, the function of CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells in the inhibition of alloreactive T cells was lower in AS patients, which was related to the decreased secretion of TGF-β. Conclusion The CD4+ regulatory T cells in peripheral blood of AS patients are significantly decreased and its function is defective, which leads to immune regulatory dysfunction in vivo. It may be one of immune pathogenesis mechanisms of AS.

Objective To analyze the clonal gene rearrangement and complementarity determining region 3 (CDR3) repertoire of TCR β-chain in fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) specimens of lymph node metastasis in patients with breast cancer. Methods The TCR CDR3 region genes of 24 TCR Vβ subfamilies were amplified by utilizing RT-PCR technology, and the CDR3 lengths of TCR β-chain were analyzed with gene scan technology for 2 cases with lymph node reactive hyperplasia and 3 patients with lymph node metastasis of breast cancer. The clonality of T cells presumed by spectra typing was further confirmed by CDR3 sequencing. Results TCR β-chain presented specific repertoire skewing in metastatic lymph node,and only 3-5 TCR Vβ subfamily of T cells were identified, respectively. Clonal expanded T cells, including oligoclonal, polyclonal patterns, in one or more Vβ subfamilies were found in all cases. The oligoclonal expanded T cells had different CDR3 amino acid sequences. Conclusion There are characteristic T cells cloning proliferation and selected usage of TCR Vβ subfamily T cells could be found in metastatic lymph node.The sequences of CDR3 in different TCR clone proliferation are mostly different.
