Objective Taken examination of patients with colon polyps by using narrow-band imaging (NBI) com-bined with magnified endoscope, to compare the difference in the opening of the gland morphology and pathological type. Methods 110 patients of colon polyps with 147 pathological histology biopsy samples collected. Using NBI combined with magnified endoscope techniques observe pit patterns and capillary patterns identify adenomatous polyps, and compared with the results of pathological histology, then analyze the adenomatous polyp diagnosis coin-cidence rate, sensitivity and specificity. Results The pit patterns of adenomatous polyps were mostly type Ⅲ, Ⅳ andⅤ. The diagnostic coincidence rate, sensitivity and specificity was 91.16%, 88.37%, 95.08%of adenomatous polyps. It was higher than ordinary colonoscopy (80.27%, 79.07%, 81.97%), and the diagnosis accuracy of intraepithelial neoplasia and early carcinoma of NBI combined with magnified endoscope was obviously higher than that by ordi-nary endoscopy examination, the differences were statistically significant. Conclusions NBI combined with magnified endoscope was superior in observing the opening of pit patterns and capillary patterns, which was helpful to diagno-sis of tumor lesions of colon polyps.

Objective To compare the clinical effects of combined anesthesia of lumbar plexus-sciatic nerve and superior clunial nerve versus spinal-epidural analgesia in total hip replacement. Methods Fifty cases of total hip replacement were randomly divided into two groups. Patients in group A received combined anesthesia of lumbar plexus-sciatic nerve and superior clunial nerve,while patients in group B received spinal-epidural analgesia. Results There were no significant differences in preoperative HR, SBP,DBP and SpO2 between the groups(P > 0. 05). Compared with pre-anesthesia data,HR,SBP,DBP in group A were significantly lower during the anesthesia(P < 0. 05). In group B,there were no significant changes in HR,SBP,DBP and SpO2 during the anesthesia( P > 0. 05). Patients′ heart rate in group A showed significant changes compared with that in group B. The differences in HR,SBP and DBP between group A and B at the same time points were significant(P < 0. 05). Superior rate of anesthesia in group B is higher than that in group A(P < 0. 05). Conclusion Combined anesthesia of lumbar plexus-sciatic nerve and superior clunial nerve has limited influence on the circulatory and respiratory systems,which can be used for total hip replacement.

Objective:To investigate whether the likelihood of balance impairment in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD) increases with the presence of disruptive behavior disorder(DBD),and whether the likelihood of co-occurring diagnosis of DBD increases in ADHD children with severer balance deficit.Methods:Three groups of 20 children each,representing pure ADHD,ADHD+DBD,and typically developing control children,were included and group matched by age and gender.Balance functions were assessed with the Balance Master in different conditions.We compared the percentages of children in each group who swayed faster than 85% of the typical control children in all conditions.Results:In the conditions of firm surface with eyes open(FI/EO) and eyes closed(FI/EC),and foam surface with eyes open(FO/EO) and eyes closed(FO/EC),the sway velocities of ADHD only group(0.65?0.26 ?/s,0.65?0.30 ?/s,0.95?0.29 ?/s,and 1.70?0.49?/s,respectively) were significantly higher than those of the typical control group(0.47?0.18 ?/s,0.43?0.19 ?/s,0.76?0.21 ?/s,and 1.27?0.38 ?/s,respectively)(P

ObjectiveTo detect the expression levels of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs),sera and skin tissue fluid from patients with vitiligo vulgaris,and to investigate their clinical significance.MethodsThirty-nine patients with vitiligo vulgaris and 31 age- and sex-matched normal human controls were recruited in this study.Real-time reverse transcription-PCR was employed to assess the expressions of MIF mRNA in PBMCs,enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to detect the concentrations of MIF in sera and skin tissue fluid from these subjects.ResultsPatients with vitiligo vulgaris showed a significantly higher level of MIF mRNA in PBMCs (6.70 (2.64 - 8.65) vs.1.67 (1.24 - 2.45),Z=5.895,P＜ 0.05),MIF protein in sera (32.76 (10.67 - 40.98) μg/L vs.7.89 (6.13 - 9.54) μg/L,Z=5.936,P ＜ 0.05 ) and skin tissue fluid ( 167.80 ( 107.40 - 219.60) μg/L vs.42.44 (32.29 - 49.74) μg/L,Z =4.715,P ＜ 0.05) compared with the normal human controls.The expression levels of MIF mRNA in PBMCs,and MIF protein in sera and skin tissue fluid were also higher in patients with progressive vitiligo than in those with stable vitiligo (7.89 (3.89 - 9.12) vs.5.62 (2.23 - 7.29),Z=2.213,P＜ 0.05; 37.80 (29.50 - 45.70) μg/L vs.22.70 (9.36 - 37.78) μg/L,Z=2.141,P＜ 0.05; 211.50 (131.70 - 248.75) μg/L vs.144.65 (89.13 - 167.30) μg/L,Z =2.100,P ＜ 0.05).In addition,the vitiligo area severity index (VASI) score was positively correlated with the expression levels of MIF mRNA in PBMCs (r =0.486,P ＜ 0.05)and MIF protein in sera (r =0.453,P ＜ 0.05).ConclusionMIF might play a certain role in the pathogenesis of vitiligo vulgaris.

BACKGROUND:The hyperpoladzation-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated cation channel (HCN) gene is not increase the risk of induced cardiac arrhythmia,and can accept the modulation function of autonomic nervous system.Therefore,it is the first candidate gene for biological pacemakers.OBJECTIVE:To construct recombinant adenovirus vector containing human HCN4 gene and evaluate its transfection efficency in rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs).DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:The in vitro cytology-gene experiment was performed at the Lin Bai-xin Experimental Center,Second Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from February to September 2008.MATERIALS:Ten SD rats were supplied by the experimental animal center of Sun Yat-sen University.Rlasmid pcDNA3.1-HCN4 containing target gene human HCN4,human embryo kidney 293 cells and Escherichia coll DH5α were preserved by our experimental center;Shuttle plasmid pShuttle-CMV containing green fluorescent protein gene and adenoviral backbone plasmid pAdxsi were bought from SinoGenoMax Co.,Ltd.METHODS:HCN4 cDNA segment was liberated from the cloning vector of pcDNA3.1-HCN4 via Hind Ⅲ+Xba Ⅰ,and subcloned into pShuttle-CMV,which was digested by I-Ceu Ⅰ +I-Sce Ⅰ double enzyme and subcloned into adenoviral plasmid to form recombinant adenovirus plasmid.Recombinant adenovirus plasmid was transfected into 293 cell lines by liposome,and the recombinant adenovirus AdHCN4 was packaged and transfected into rat MSCs.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:The identification of recombinant adenovirus plasmid vector,identification of recombinant adenovirus and its titration test;the transfection efficiency of recombinant adenovirus.RESULTS:Cloned sequence about 3.6kbp was obtained by Hind Ⅲ+Xho Ⅰ digestion after HCN4 cDNA segment was cloned into pShuttle-CMV.DNA sequencing results indicated that the clone location was correct.Recombinant adenovirus plasmid was cut into seven fragments while empty vector gained only six fragments after digested by Xho Ⅰ.The recombinant adenovirus was pathogenic to 293 cells after recombinant adenovirus plasmid was packaged in it.HCN4 cDNA (657bp) was amplified by PCR with virus titer of 2.5×10~(11) PFU/mL after transfected 293 cells with supematant.The efficiency of recombinant adenovirus infecting rat MSCs was about 90% when multiplicity of infection was 800.Rat MSCs expressed green fluorescence after transfection.CONCLUSION:The adenovirus vector with human HCN4 cDNA was established successfully,which can effectively transfect rat MSCs.

AIM:To research the characteristics of ventricular electrophysiology in right ventricular rapid pacing-induced congestive heart failure (CHF) dogs. METHODS:Dogs (n = 16) were randomly divided into 2 groups:the control (n = 7) and the CHF group (n = 9) induced by rapid right ventricular pacing at 240 pulse·min-1 for 4 to 5 weeks. The electrophysiologic parameters were evaluated by the technique of standard electric stimulation and monophasic action potential (MAP) recording. RESULTS:(1) Ventricular effective refractory period (VERP), ventricular MAP duration (MAPD90), ventricular late repolarization duration (VLRD) and intra- ventricular conduction time (IVCT) were prolonged by 26％ (P ＜ 0. 01), 43％ (P ＜ 0. 01), 318％ (P ＜ 0. 05), and 19％ (P ＜ 0. 01), respectively in CHF group. (2)The ratio of VERP to MAPD90(VERP/MAPD90) was decreased by 13％ (P＜0.05) in CHF group. (3) The dispersion of ventricular recovery time (VRT - D) was increased by 185％ (P ＜0. 01) in CHF group. (4) The ventricular fibrillation threshold (VFT) was decreased by 48％ (P ＜ 0. 01) in CHF group. CONCLUSION:The abnormal electrophysiological changes in the CHF condition may be contributing factors of lethal ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac deaths in CHF.
