The transplants of one-year-old Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch. were subjected to five concentrations of MnSO4-H2O (0, 1.81, 18.1, 36.2 and 54.3 mg·L(-1)) culturing in vermiculite. qRT-PCR and HPLC were respectively used to measure the relative expression of SQS1 gene and the content of glycyrrhizic acid of G. uralensis in different concentrations of MnSO4·H2O. This is to explore discuss the effects of the expression of SQS1 gene and the accumulation of glycyrrhizic acid by Mn treatment. The results showed both the expression of SQS1 gene and the content of glycyrrhzic acid of G. uralensis tended to rise after the fall of the first with the increase of concentration of Mn treatment. And they were of very significant positive correlation (P<0.01, r=0.737). Relative expression of SQS1 gene reached the highest 7.90 under 18.1 mg·L(-1) MnSO4·H2O treatment. It was very significantly different between 18.1 mg·L(-1) concentration of MnSO4·H2O treatment and CK (0 mg·L(-1)), 1.81, 36.2 and 54.3 mg·L(-1) (P<0.01), and 1.75, 1.37, 1.37, 2.33 times respectively. The content of glycyrrhizic acid reached the highest under 1.81 and 18.1 mg·L(-1) MnSO4·H2O treatment, and there were not significant difference (P>0.05). It was very significantly different between them and other concentrations of MnSO4·H2O treatment (P<0.01). This study suggests the appropriate concentration of Mn treatment could certain promote the expression of SQS1 gene and the accumulation of glycyrrhizic acid of G. uralensis.

Objective To investigate the effects of airway pressure release ventilation (APRV) in children with severe pneumonia-related acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS).Methods Ten children suffering severe pneumonia-related ARDS with APRV were included in Pediatric Intensive Care Unit, Beijing Children's Hospital,Capital Medical University from March 2011 to October 2014.Ventilation variables, changes of airway pressure and Ramsay scores were collected and compared with that in conventional ventilation (CV).Clinical variables were measured at CV before APRV and at 1,4,12,24 hours after transition to APRV.Results High airway pressure(Phigh) at each time point during APRV was significantly lower than peak airway pressure (Ppeak) or plateau airway pressure (Pplat) in CV[(26.00 ±2.94) cmH2O(1 cmH2O =0.098 kPa) ,(24.40 ±3.34) cmH2O,(23.30 ±3.46) cmH2O,(23.00 ± 3.80) cmH2O vs (31.80 ± 5.59) cmH2O, P ＜ 0.01].Mean airway pressure (Pmean) at each time point during APRV was significantly higher than that in CV [(23.00 ± 2.86) cmH2 O, (21.69 ± 3.12) cmH2 O, (20.89 ± 3.31) cmH2 O, (20.46 ± 3.48) cmH2 O vs (17.50 ± 2.37) cmH2 O, P ＜ 0.05].Fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) were significantly decreased at 4, 12 and 24 hours after APRV than that in CV [(73.00 ± 22.39) ％, (63.50 ± 20.16) ％, (63.00 ± 21.11) ％ vs (88.00 ± 15.49) ％, P ＜ 0.05].Ramsay scores were significantly decreased at each time point during after APRV than that in CV [(3.90 ± 0.74) scores, (2.90 ± 0.88) scores, (3.00 ± 1.15) scores,(3.50 ± 0.71) scores vs (4.60 ± 0.52) scores, P ＜ 0.05].Conclusions Compared with CV, APRV had a lower Phigh and FiO2 ,a higher Pmean and more shallow sedation.APRV may be an effective ventilation mode in children's severe pneumonia-related ARDS.

BACKGROUND:Intraocular refractive operation with phakic intraocular lens implantation has been used in highly refractive errors patients with over-high diopter and thinner corneal thickness, which has the advantages of reversibility and retain the eye's accommodation. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the safety and stability of posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens implantation in comparison with Lasik correction for high myopia. METHODS:Total y 126 col ege students with high myopia, 63 males and 63 females, aged (21.87±1.18) years, were randomly divided into test and control groups. In the test group, col ege students received posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens implantation, while those in the control group were subject to Lasik correction. During 1-year fol ow-up, naked vision, corrected visual acuity, contrast sensitivity, and postoperative untoward reaction were observed, and the effectiveness and safety indexes were calculated in the two groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The effectiveness and safety indexes in the test group were both superior to those in the control group (P<0.05). After 1 year of fol ow-up, the contrast sensitivity light and dark environment in the test group was significantly improved, which was also higher than that in the control group. Decreased night vision and glare was found in five cases of the control group and one case of the test group. These findings indicate that posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens implantation is safe and effective that can improve the visual quality in clinic.

Objective To explore the clinical features of sentinel polyps (rectal polyps with proximal colon carcinoma) and its correlation with proximal colon carcinoma.Methods From January 2003 to December 2013,the clinical features of 963 hospitalized patients with rectal polyps were retrospectively analyzed.According to whether the patient with colon carcinoma,the clinical data of rectal polyps patients were divided into pure polyps group (n=855) and sentinel polyps group (n 108).The characteristics under endoscopy,clinical pathological features,treatment and prognosis of the two groups were observed.Chi square test was performed for differences comparison between groups.Results The length of stay in hospital of 963 patients was from four to 33 days,the average age was (49.7 ± 9.4) years,and the majority of the patients were male (n=610,63.3％).A total of 785 patients (81.5％) had non-specific abdominal symptoms,such as frequency or habit change of defecation,hematochezia,abdominal pain,abdominal distension.The relatives within three generation of 78 patients (8.1 ％) were diagnosed with tumor and some relatives of the patients diagnosed with familial adenomatous polyposis (2.2％,21/963).The positive rate of tumor marker of sentinel polyps group was higher (69.4％,75/ 108) than that of pure polyps group (6.8％,58/855; x2 =316.285,P＜0.01).The proximal colon carcinoma of patients with sentinel polyps appeared as neoplasma with circumferential growth,there was no specific appearance between distal rectal polyps and proximal colon carcinoma.When compared with pure polyps group,most polyps of sentinel polyps group were in maximum diameter over 1 cm (61.1％ (66/108) vs 46.9％ (401/855)),multi polyps (n＞5,38.9％ (42/108) vs 11.8％ (101/855)) and adenomatous polyp (83.3％ (90/108) vs 35.6％(304/855),x2=7.752,55.595 and 90.544,all P＜ 0.01).Majority of the proximal colon carcinoma with rectal polyps was papillary adenocarcinoma and tubular adenocarcinoma which was account for 75.9％ (82/108).Some were mucinous carcinoma and signet ring cell carcinoma.Most of the proximal colon carcinoma with rectal polys did not penetrate the serosa layer (Duk A-+Duk B,59.3％,64/108) and with little distant metastasis (Duke D,17.6％,19/ 108).Ninty-five point six percent (817/855) of patients with pure polyps underwent endoscopic treatment and all of them were cured and discharged.Forty-one point seven percent (45/108) of patients of sentinel polyps group accepted the radical operation and 19.4％ (21/108) received endoscopic submucosal dissection.Conclusions If multiple,maximum diameter over 1 cm and adenomatous rectal polyps were detected under colon endoscope,the possibility of carcinogenesis of the polyps or the proximal colon should be awared.If the endoscope is difficult to go further or the patient can not tolerate the whole colon examination,the patient should be followed up in short-term and complete the whole colon examination.
