[Objective] The retrospective study was designed to analyze the dynamic relationship between the Apolipoprotein A 1,B100 and the progression of coronary artery lesion.[Methods] Patients who underwent the second coronary angiography or coronary 320-slice CTA at a minimum review interval of 6 months after their first examinations in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from 2010 to 2015 (n =245),were divided into non progress group (n =114) and progress group (n =131).We compared the differences of clinical and Biochemical data between two groups,and tried to find out the relationship by Logistic Regression analysis.[Results] The baseline levels of APOA1 (1.33 ± 0.29 vs 1.24 ± 0.25,P =0.015),APOA1/AOPB100(1.56 ± 0.65 vs 1.38 ± 0.44,P =0.014)in non progress group were higher than those in progress group.The baseline levels of APOB 100 were similar in both groups.The follow-up levels of APOA1 were higher than the baseline levels in both groups,the variation was significant in progress group (1.24 -± 0.25 vs 1.31 ± 0.28,P =0.006).The levels of APOA1 and APOA1/APOB100 were correlated with progression of coronary artery lesion negatively in single-variate logistic regression analysis.The level of APOA 1 (OR =0.245,P =0.005) was correlated with progression of coronary artery lesion negatively in multivariate logistic regression analysis.[Conclusions] APOA1 may has the effect of delaying the progression of coronary artery lesion,and may predict the progression of coronary artery lesion.

Objective To study the over-expression and clinical implications of the oncogene MDM2 in acute leukemia (AL). Methods The expression of MDM2 gene in 100 patients with newly diagnosed and relapse or refractory AL and 20 healthy as control was measured by relative quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR),then the results was measured by χ2-test,t-test and one-way ANOVA to compare expession positive rate and intensity of MDM2. Results Among 100 patients,fifty-eight had the high expression of MDM2 gene (58 %). The expression level of MDM2 gene in patients was higher than that of health controls(P <0.05). The expression positive rate of MDM2 is higher in poor outcome group (67.9 %,19/28)than that in general outcome group (33.9%,19/56) (P<0.05). Conclusion Our results suggest that the expression of MDM2 gene plays an important role in the pathogenesis and poor outcome of AL.

OBJECTIVE To provide computed tomographic reference for the infralabyrinthine approach to the internal auditory canal.METHODS Temporal bone CT images of forty patients(80 sides) were randomly selected without ear lesions,and some relative structures were observed and measured.RESULTS The mean distance from the inferior edge of the posterior semicircular canal to the superior edge of the jugular bulb was (4.69±2.91)mm left and (3.10±3.01)mm right,the mean thickness of the bone inferior to the posterior semicircular canal was (0.92 ± 0.37)mm left and (0.69 ± 0.37)mm right,the mean distance from the vertical portion of the facial nerve to the anterior edge of the sigmoid sinus was (8.66±2.71)mm left and (7.74± 1.99)mm right,the mean distance from the superior edge of the jugular bulb to the internal auditory canal was (6.32 ± 2.88)mm left and (5.39 ± 2.61) mm right,the mean distance from the superior edge of the jugular bulb to the single foramen was (6.82 ± 3.02)mm left and (5.84 ± 2.82)mm right,the mean distance from the external aperture of vestibular aqueduct tothe posterior edge of internal acoustic porus was (14.38 ± 2.56)mm left and (14.12±2.76)mm right,the mean distance from the external aperture of vestibular aqueduct tothe midpoint of internal auditory canal was (12.02 ± 2.46)mm left and (11.91 ± 2.53)mm right.There were statistical differences in distances of different sides among the anterior three groups,no statistical differences were seen in distances of different sides among the posterior four groups.CONCLUSION The temporal bone CT images are helpful to the infralabyrinthine approach to the internal auditory canal.

OBJECTIVE:
To summarize the research progress on the role of macrophage-mediated osteoimmune in osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) and its mechanisms.
METHODS:
Recent studies on the role and mechanism of macrophage-mediated osteoimmune in ONFH at home and abroad were extensively reviewed. The classification and function of macrophages were summarized, the osteoimmune regulation of macrophages on chronic inflammation in ONFH was summarized, and the pathophysiological mechanism of osteonecrosis was expounded from the perspective of osteoimmune, which provided new ideas for the treatment of ONFH.
RESULTS:
Macrophages are important immune cells involved in inflammatory response, which can differentiate into classically activated type (M1) and alternatively activated type (M2), and play specific functions to participate in and regulate the physiological and pathological processes of the body. Studies have shown that bone immune imbalance mediated by macrophages can cause local chronic inflammation and lead to the occurrence and development of ONFH. Therefore, regulating macrophage polarization is a potential ONFH treatment strategy. In chronic inflammatory microenvironment, inhibiting macrophage polarization to M1 can promote local inflammatory dissipation and effectively delay the progression of ONFH; regulating macrophage polarization to M2 can build a local osteoimmune microenvironment conducive to bone repair, which is helpful to necrotic tissue regeneration and repair to a certain extent.
CONCLUSION
At present, it has been confirmed that macrophage-mediated chronic inflammatory immune microenvironment is an important mechanism for the occurrence and development of ONFH. It is necessary to study the subtypes of immune cells in ONFH, the interaction between immune cells and macrophages, and the interaction between various immune cells and macrophages, which is beneficial to the development of potential therapeutic methods for ONFH.
