11.0 mmol/L).Perioperative decontamination in digestive tract was a protective factor in the prevention of bacterial infection.Conclusion Bacterial infection is one of the most severe complications after OLT.Therefore,it is very important to remove those risk factors,make early diag- nosis and take effective treatment.

S801 leukemic cell line established by our department was used as cells for interferon (IFN) induction and stimulating induction. S801 cell culture of concentration of 5-8x10~6 cells/ml was used for IFN induction and IFN titer of 3.55 Lg IU/ml was obtained by classical procedure. The IFN titer obtained S801 cell cultures after pretreatment with Ciwujia eleutherosides B. D and E or polysaccharide (PES) combined with priming procedure,then using Sendai Virus as an inducer was 10-20 times higher than that in cultures without any pretreatment. These Chinese medical herbs may be the ideal IFN helpinducers. This cell line may be applied for IFN production.

Objective To screen thyroid function among planned pregnant women in Chongqing, to guide prenatal and postnatal care. Methods Proportional multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling method was adopted to enroll 11 953 planned pregnant women for questionnaire, physical examination, and serum samples collection. Results The median TSH was 2. 04 mIU/ L, P25 = 1. 36 mIU/ L,P75 = 2. 99 mIU/ L. TSH levels being normal, higher, and lower than the reference were 91. 47% , 6. 20% , and 2. 33% , respectively. In Northeast Chongqing, the proportions of median TSH level and TSH level above the upper limit were higher than those in other regions(P<0. 05). With improved education, proportions of TSH above the upper limit and below the lower limit declined(P<0. 05). With the increase in body mass index, the proportion of those whose TSH was above the upper limit showed elevated trend(P<0. 05). In women with history of adverse pregnancy outcomes, their median TSH was higher than that in the control group, and those, whose TSH level exceeded the upper limit, yield higher results than those in the control group(P<0. 05). In women with higher fasting blood glucose The median TSH level was lower than that in normal blood glucose group( P<0. 05), with the fasting plasma glucose concentration and TSH negatively correlated(P<0. 05). Conclusion The abnormal rate of TSH level in planned pregnant women was 8. 53% in Chongqing. The abnormal rate varies by different regions, education levels, body mass indexes, and blood glucose levels. Previous history of adverse pregnancy outcomes was related to elevated TSH levels. It is necessary to take pre-pregnancy thyroid function screening investigation.

Objective To study the effects of sample digestion conditions on measurement results of urinary iodine determined by As(Ⅲ)-Ce4+ catalytic spectrophotometry with ammonium persulfate digestion,and to promote the application of newly revised (the 2012 edition) national standard method for determination of urinary iodine.Methods According to the newly revised national standard method,various digestion conditions,such as ammonium persulfate concentration (0.8-1.3 mol/L,group interval 0.1),digestion instruments (heating block and drying oven) and standing time after digestion(0.5,1.0,2.0,4.0 and 22.0 h),were studied.The samples included 3 standard materials,which were GWB09108k,GWB09109f and GWB09110m containing iodine of (68.2 ± 9.0),(138.0 ± 10.0) and (221.0 ± 10.0) μg/L,and 5 urine samples with iodine concentration of 100-300 μg/L.Results Measurement results among the three groups of 0.9,1.0 and 1.1 mol/L ammonium persulfate digestion fluid showed no significant difference(P ＞ 0.05).The digestive effect showed no significant difference between heating block and drying oven (P ＞ 0.05) except one standard material in low concentration (GBW09108k).After digestion,samples were placed 0.5-22.0 h,the measurement results between groups showed no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Appropriate concentrations of ammonium persulfate are from 0.9 mol/L to 1.1 mol/L.Heating block is recommended for the digestion,however,when absent,drying oven can be used alternatively.The standing times from 0.5 h to 22 h after digestion have not affected the measurement results.

To determine the role of allogeneil graft of mesenchymal stem cells in mammalian longevity, mesenchymal stem cells were isolated from BALB/c mouse uterine-incision delivery fetus by two successive density gradient centrifugations, and then were purified and amplified by adherent culture. Identified P1 mesenchymal stem cells were injected (i.v.) through vena caudalis into the 15-month-old female BALB/c mice three times. The mice were evaluated with ultrasoundcardiogram, autopsy, score of cardiac, skin, lung, kidney, colon histopathology and serum total superoxide dismutase activity, maleic dialdehyde content, glutathione peroxidase activity. The results showed that after transplantation, the long-term surviving stem cells were found to be located in many organ tissues with in situ Y chromosomal hybridization dyeing. Median life span was increased in these animals after transplantation. Skin, cardiac, lung, kidney and colon pathology development were delayed. The retrogradation of heart function was attenuated, the increase of heart mass index (the mass of heart/the mass of the body), and serum maleic dialdehyde content, the decrease of spleen mass index (the mass of spleen/the mass of the body), serum total superoxide dismutase activity and glutathione peroxidase activity were reduced three months after transplantation (all P<0.05). These results support the idea that longevity can be enhanced by transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells and reinforce the hypothesis of mesenchymal stem cell as antiager.

Thus,the hygromycin-selectecl plants were obtained and were transplantecl into tlowerpots. The results of the PCR and Southern blot analysis indicated that the DREB1A gene,CMO gene and BADH-CMO double-gene were integrated into the genomic DNA of Kentucky bluegrass.

Objective To explore the composition and distribution law of TCM syndromes in gastric cancer. Methods Based on the multicenter and large-sample clinical epidemiological investigation, the four methods of diagnosis of and clinical materials of 767 cases of gastric cancer were collected, and the database of TCM syndromes in gastric cancer was establish. Factor analysis and clustering analysis were used to explore composition and distribution law of TCM syndromes in gastric cancer. Results Gastric cancer symptoms mainly included fatigue, weight loss, dizziness and other non-specific systemic manifestation, and epigastria discomfort, belching, fullness or eating just a little swelling, pain, acid regurgitation, loss of appetite and other local manifestations. At the same time, the red tongue, moss greasy, pulse fine or string and other traditional Chinese medicine signs were also included. Eliminating 92 cases with too little symptoms, 675 cases were under multivariate analyzed. 25 syndrome variables were selected after initial factor analysis, again through factor analysis 10 factors with eigenvalues more than 1.0 were obtained and the cumulative contribution rate was 60.5%. Through further K-means clustering analysis on 10 common factor integrals, it was found that when all the cases were clustered into 7 classes consistent with clinical practice most. The numbers of patients with the 1-7 type were 165, 82, 90, 79, 88, 95 and 76, respectively. Analysis on the main factors in the combination of professional knowledge, the 7 types were named as the syndrome of spleen and stomach qi stagnation (24.44%), the syndrome of qi and blood deficiency (12.15%), the syndrome of spleen deficiency (13.33%), the syndrome of blood stasis (11.70%), the syndrome of phlegm dampness (13.04%), the syndrome of deficiency cold of spleen and stomach (14.07%), the syndrome of incoordination between liver/gallbladder and stomach (11.41%) respectively. Conclusion The results of multivariate analysis suggests that the location of gastric cancer is in the stomach, and closely related to spleen, liver and gallbladder. The general pathogenesis is asthenia in origin and asthenia in superficiality. The deficiency lies in qi, blood and yang qi, while asthenia superficiality owes to stagnation of qi, phlegm and blood stasis.
