Objective To establish the biostereometric system of breast volume measurement and to estimate the precision and reliability of the designed system. Methods Biostereometric system of breast volume measurement was built upon the biostereometrics based on computer stereo vision and image processing. One laser projector was used as illuminating source, two CCD cameras were mounted for photo-taken, a series of parallel points were provided through a piece of grating. The volumes of 12 female breast models were tested by water displacement (golden standard) and biostereometric analysis. Results The maximum size of marks we photographed was within 120 mm?140 mm?80 mm. The characters of the system was rapid, non-contact and noninvasive. The validity and reliability of determination of breast volume between biostereometric system and golden standard had no significant difference, compared to water displacement (P=0.473). Conclusions Biostereometric system of breast volume measurement will be suited for the clinical application. The study offers a noninvasive, non-contact, rapid and accurate morphologic method and provides a new theory foundation for morphological analysis.

Objective:To find a short, neutralizing antibody-inducible, ORF2-encoded protein by means of comparing the immunogenicity of pN472-C617 and pN477-C613 which represent amino acids 472-617 and 477-613 of HEV ORF2-encoded protein of hepatitis E virus(HEV) genotype 4, respectively.Methods:The two recombinant proteins were expressed, purified, and then used to immunize BALB/c mice. Anti-HEV titers in the immune sera were detected by ELISA. Anti-HEV neutralizing activity was tested by a PCR-based in vitro neutralization assay.Results:Both of the two recombinant proteins were efficiently expressed in E.coli in soluble forms. The purified proteins induced mice to develop high levels of anti-HEV specific antibodies. However, only the immune sera obtained from the mice immunized with pN472-C617 showed the neutralizing activity to the homologous HEV strain by preventing the virus from absorption on PLC/PRF/5 cells surfaces and replication in the cells. The immune sera against pN477-C613, which was truncated five amino acids from both N- and C-terminal of pN472-C617, had no HEV neutralizing activity.Conclusion:The pN472-C617 is the shortest neutralizing antibody-inducible ORF2-encoded protein of HEV reported in literatures so far. It may be considered as a potential candidate for a novel HEV subunit vaccine in our future study.

Result Survey results showed that the satisfaction degree was high and it effectively enhanced the concept of preventive medicine and the actual working capacity. Conclusion Through teaching reform,the students’ ability to prevente and cure diseases,to analyze and solve problem has been markedly enhanced,and this approach can be widely used.

Objective Infliximab is a kind of recombinant human mouse chimeric anti-tumor necrosis factor monoclonal antibody. Here we aimed to examine the impact of infliximab therapy on RANK/RANKL/OPG system in the peripheral blood of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. Methods Fifty patients with RA were rigorously screened and randomly divided into 2 groups. One group was treated with infliximab (3 mg/kg)and methotrexate (MTX). As control, the other group was treated with MTX alone. Infliximab was administered at weeks 0, 2, 6 and 14. The expression of RANK, RANKL mRNA in the peripheral blood, serum OPG and clinical indicators changes at week 0 and 18 were compared.x2-test or t-test were used for statistical analysis.Results After treated with infliximab, bone damage of joints were slowed down when examined by radiography in RA patients compared with the control group. And the ratio of OPG/RANKL was also decreased in RA peripheral blood (w0: 80.25;w 18: 63.2); (control group w0: 83.37; w18: 30.87)(P＞0.05). Although after the treatment with either MTX alone [w0: (238±15) pg/ml; w18: (118±10) pg/ml] or infliximab combined with MTX [(w0: (223.1±6.2) pg/ml; w18:(162.4±5.5) pg/ml], the serum levels of OPG were all decreased (P＞0.05), the level of OPG in infliximab treatment group was declined slower than those in the control group. Conclusion RA bone destruction can be inhibited by the combination therapy of infliximab and MTX. The mechanism may be partly through the RANK/RANKL/OPG system.

Objective To compare the differences of disease spectrum between patients with brain trauma injury (TBI) in the high altitude areas and those in the plain areas.Methods The front page information of medical records of local TBI patients admitted to military hospitals from 2001 to 2007 was extracted from the Chinese Trauma Database.Ten military hospitals from high altitude areas (high altitude group) and 10 military hospitals with the same hospital level from plain areas (plain group) were selected and the patients in the two groups were compared for their differences in general condition and disease spectrum.Results High altitude group displayed a larger proportion of male patients (P＜0.01),a lower age (P＜0.01),a smaller proportion of patients with Han nationality (P＜0.01),asmaller proportion of emergency patients (P＜0.01),a larger proportion of critically ill patients (P＜0.01),a lower median of hospital days (P＜0.01),a lower operation rate (P＜0.01),as compared with the plain group.The injury of the patients with TBI in turn were intracranial organ injury (excluding those with skull fracture),open wound of head,neck,and trunk,skull fracture,injury of nerves and spinal cord.The orders of TBI disease spectrum of the high altitude and plain groups were the same,but the disease compositions of the two groups had significant difference (P＜0.01).Conclusions Thereexist significant differences in demographics,admission status and disease spectrum of TBI patients inhigh altitude and plain areas.However,the current clinical treatments of TBI in high altitude areas are usually with reference to the experience in plain areas,which is worthy of paying attention by relevant departments.

8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) is a sensitive and stable biomarker for evaluating DNA oxidative damage. A rapid and sensitive colloidal gold immunochromatographic strip was developed for 8-OHdG detection by a competitive method. The sample pad (glass cellulose film), bonding pad (glass cellulose film), nitrocellulose film and absorbent pad were pasted on the polyvinyl chloride (PVC) base plate to construct the test strip. Colloidal gold (AuNPs) was prepared by the reduction of chloroauric acid with sodium citrate. 8-OHdG antibody (Ab) was coated on the outer layer of AuNPs to form Ab@AuNPs as a probe. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) and 8-OHdG were conjugated with carbodiimide hydrochloride to prepare an artificial antigen, which was used as the coating antigen of detection line. Goat anti mouse polyclonal antibody IgG was used as the coating antibody of control line. The experimental parameters were optimized including the type of nitrocellulose membrane, the formula of loading solution, and the spraying amount of gold labeled antibody. The results showed that the appropriate nitrocellulose membrane was CN 95. The optimal loading solution included BSA (1%), Tween-20 (3%), sucrose (3%) and NaCl (0.9%). The optimal spraying amount of gold labeled antibody was 4 μL. 8-OHdG can be detected by the strip under visible light, and the level of 8-OHdG in urine can be preliminarily determined by comparing the color intensity of T line and C line. The 8-OHdG concentration in urine was further calculated by the gray value of T line and the threshold of detection was 2.55 μg/L. This colloidal gold immunochromatographic strip is simple, rapid and specific for detecting 8-OHdG in human urine to preliminarily evaluate the human status.
