Objective:To study the correlation of the concentrations of tumor necrosis factor ?(TNF-?)between saliva and serum in patients with recurrent aphthous ulceration(RAU).Methods:Thirty patients with light RAU and thirty healthy controls were recruited.The levels of tumor necrosis factor ?(TNF-?)were measured in both saliva and serum of patients with RAU and control subjects by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)and TNF-? standard curve.Results:The concentrations of tumor necrosis factor ?(TNF-?)in saliva and serum were significantly higher(P

10%～20% of acute clinical sporatic hepatitis is hepatitis E (HE). HE has a severe diaease low mortality in general population of about 0.5～1.5%. It has been reported as severe disease and the mortality increased to 20% in pregnant women and old people. China is high-epidemic for hepatitis E virus (HEV). HEV is mainly transmitted through faecaloral route,data also showed that HEV could be transferred through blood donation. The epidemiology,diagnostics and vaccine development of HE is reviewed in this paper.

Objective To establish a differently expressed genetic profile in placental tissues of pregnancy induced hypertension(PIH). Method The total RNAs were isolated from the tissues by Trizol and mRNA was purified by Midi Kit. The expression of 17 000 genes in placental tissues of 6 PIH and 5 normoten sive women were evaluated by cDNA array technique. Results Ninety-six differently expressed genes were identified in placental tissue of PIH compared with normal pregnancy cases. Seventy-eight genes were up-regulated and 18 were down-regulated. There were 6 unclassified genes, 8 unknown expressed sequence tag (EST) fragments and 3 cDNA fragments among these differently expressed genes. The differently expressed genes were involved in transcription and translation,cell differentiation,receptor,apoptosis,immune,metabolism and growth. Conclusion The cellular mechanism of PIH involves changes in genes expression in placental tissue. Microarray is a useful method to identify differently expressed genes in tissue.

Diabetic retinopathy is one of the most common and serious chronic complications. Recently, great quantities of researches show that there are correlations between the oxidative stress and the diabetic retinopathy. Hyperglycemia causes the oxidative stress, and it damages the retina through injuring the endothelial cells and mitochondria, generating abnormal metabolism pathway and promoting the inflammatory response, then the serious consequences have been caused such as retinal ischemia or even detachment. In clinic the antioxidant treatment has achieved some results. So this paper focuses on the relationship of the oxidative stress and the incidence of the diabetic retinopathy.

Objective To detect the level of nitric oxide (NO) and amino acids in cerebrospinal fluid and serum of epilepsy children in different time. Methods The level of NO and amino acids in cerebrospinal fluid and serum of epilepsy children in different time were determined with nitrate reductase and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with fluorimetric detection. Results The level of NO2 - increased 30 min, 60 min, 120 min after seizures (P<0.01), but dropped to normal 180 min after seizures (P>0.05). The level of glutamate (Glu) significantly increased in all epilepsy groups (P<0.05). The level of glycine (Gly) dropped gradually in all epilepsy groups (P<0.05).Conclusion NO may participate in the generation of seizures and the injury process to brain. The imbalance between excitatory and inhibitory amino acids may play an important role in the pathogenesis of epilepsy. The toxicity of excitatory amino acids may be the main injury to the brain.

Objective To explore whether differences in high school student health exist between urban and suburban areas in Beijing.Metheds To make comparative analysis on the related data collected from the physical examinations conducted in the 19 districts in Beijing for senior high school admission and college admission in 2007.Results Differences in student health(including height,weight,eyesight)exist between urban and suburban areas in Beijing.There is significant difference in eyesight(t=2.321,P=0.033)between urban and suburban junior school graduates in Beijing.There are significant difierences in height(t=2.617,P=0.018)and the incidence of overweight(t=4.650,P=0.000)between urban and suburban boys junior school graduates.There is significant difference in height(t=3.792,P=0.001)between girls.Conclusions The health condition of high school students is being affected by the overloaded study tasks and unhealthy lifestyle.which needs to be intervened.

【Objective】 To observe the therapeutic effect of acupuncture for autismin children.【Methods】Subjecting tothe willing of the children s parents,80 children with autismwere equally dividedintotwo groups :group Areceived acupuncture mainly onthe ten groups of acupoints for autism,whichis founded by Professor Jinrui,qd,sixtimes per week,suspension of medication on Sunday,and 120 times constituting one treatment course;group Breceived physical therapy,cognitive training,behavioral analysis and correction,linguistic training,qd,4 hour for eachtime,sixtimes per week,suspension of medication on Sunday,and 120 times constituting one treatment course.After treatment,the therapeutic effect was evaluated with functional development scale in Chinese version of Children Psychoeducational Profile(C-PEP).【Results】After one treatment course,the scores of functional development were increasedin both of groups Aand B(P

The reasons why the relationships between doctors and patients hasn't advanced to a full and true harmonious stage in our country are multiple.From the legal point of view,the research on the important legal issues of doctor-patient relationship is deficient.The law regulating the relationship is hysteretic and even lacking.The system settling the doctor-patient conflict is distempered and imperfect.Both the doctors' and patients' legal knowledge and consciousness are inadequate.Therefore,it is necessary to discuss the legal measures from the four aspects to construct a harmonious medical service system.

Objective To explore the diagnostic value of alcohol fixation and liquid-based cytology method for malignant stricture of common bile duct and to study the interval time between sampling and fixation for procedure of alcohol fixation.Methods Data of 82 patients were retrospectively studied,who were suspected of having malignant stricture of common bile duct underwent brushing through endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP),and were confirmed by follow-up for 2 years or pathology after surgery from October 2008 to June 2013.These patients were randomly divided into alcohol fixation group (n =30),liquid-based cytology group (n =28) and conventional cytology group (n =24).The positive diagnostic rates of brush cytology in each group were compared.The alcohol fixation group were randomly divided into 2-minute group and 5-minute group according to the interval time between sampling and fixation.Positive diagnostic rates were also compared.Results The positive rates were 73.33％ (alcohol fixation group,22/30),75.00％ (liquid-based cytology group,21/28) and 20.83％ (conventional cytology group,5/24),respectively.The positive rate of conventional cytology group was obviously lower than alcohol fixation group (x2 =21.525,P=0.000) and liquid-based cytology group (x2 =22.208,P =0.000) with statistical significance.But the positive rate of alcohol fixation group was similar to the liquid-based cytology group (x2 =0.683,P =0.898).In alcohol fixation group,the positive rate of 2-min group (88.24％,15/17) was significantly higher than the 5-min group (53.85％,7/13) with statistical significance (x2 =4.535,P =0.033).Conclusion Compared with conventional fixation,alcohol fixation and liquid-based cytology can improve positive diagnostic rate of brushing during ERCP.The alcohol fixation is more simple in procedure and low in cost than liquid-based cytology.The interval time between sampling and fixation should be reduced to no more than 2 minutes.
