Objective To explore tumor inhibitory effect of the lentiviral vectors mediated small interfering RNA(siRNA)targe‐ting survivin gene on human lung adenocarcinoma xenografts in nude mice in vivo .Methods The lentiviral vector expressing sur‐vivin‐siRNA was prepared .Then established human lung adenocarcinoma‐bearing nude mice model ,and divided nude mice into three groups ,including the blank control group(PC group) ,blank vector group(NC group) and experiment group(RNAi group) ,treated with physiological saline ,blank viral vector and siRNA respectively .The lentiviral vectors expressing survivin‐siRNA were locally injected in tumor issues of nude mice in the RNAi group .Then observed the curve about changes of tumor volume in different time . The expression levels of protein and mRNA were detected by using Western blot and reverse transcription polymerase chain reac‐tion(RT‐PCR) .The histogram of tumor cell cycle were examined by using flow cytometry .Results The rate of tumor inhibition of lentiviral vectors mediated survivin‐siRNA on lung adenocarcinoma in nude mice was 46 .07% .There were significant differences in tumor weight between siRNA group and NC group ,PC group(P<0 .05) ,while no statistically significant difference was found be‐tween NC group and PC group(P>0 .05) .Compared with NC group and PC group ,the expression levels of survivin mRNA and protein were decreased ,and rates of inhibition were 72 .00% and 53 .00% respectively .The percentage of G1 phase cells was in‐creased ,whereas the percentages of S phase cells was decreased .Conclusion The lentiviral vectors mediated siRNA could effective‐ly inhibit survivin gene expression on human lung adenocarcinoma xenografts in nude mice and markedly induce the apoptosis of tumor .

Chronic pancreatitis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the pancreas,whichcan lead to irreversible damage to the morphology and function of the pancreas ultimately.So the early diagnosis and treatment for chronic pancreatitis are very important.And the differentiation between mass-forming chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer is also a difficult problem in clinic.MRI as a noninvasive and nonradiative examination with excellent soft tissue resolution,is very valuable for the diagnosis of chronic pancreatitis.And the combination of functional MRI and conventional MRI is very helpful for the differentiation between pancreatic carcinoma and mass-forming chronic pancreatitis,which is of great significance to the clinical management.The application and progresses of function MRI in the diagnosis and identification of chronic pancrea titis were reviewed in this article.

Objective To evaluate the influence of chronic urticaria on the quality of life in patients by the DLQI, and to assess the factor structure and reliability of the DLQI. Methods The DLQI (Chinese version) was used to evaluate the quality of life of outpatients with CU. The reliability and factor structure of the DLQI were evaluated by reliability analysis and factor analysis. Results Eighty-five patients were asked to complete the DLQI and 13 patients were excluded for other complicated disorders or unanswered items in the DLQI. The mean age was 33.43 ± 0.90 years in the 72 patients with a median clinical course of 6 months. The DLQI score, which varied from 1 to 23 with an average of 9.46 ± 0.61, was uncorrelated to the patients' age,sex, or clinical course of CU (all P > 0.05). The impact of CU was observed mainly on the "synptoms and feeling" (50%), followed by "work and study" (40.67%). Factor analysis indicated that there were two dimensions with eigenvalues greater than 1.0, accounting for 53.7% of the variances. Reliability analysis showed that the Cronbach's α value was 0.836, and reached 0.849 if the item 1 in the DLQI was deleted. An analysis of variance showed that the F value was 31.88 (P < 0.01 ), and Hotelling T2 test yielded an F value of 29.87 (P <0.01 ). Conclusions CU has a moderate impact on the quality of life in patients. DLQI can be applied to the evaluation of quality of life in patients with CU with a high reliability, but more attention should be paid to the interference from item 1 to the reliability of the assessment.

Objective · To investigate the gender-related metabolomic differences in human saliva. Methods · The saliva metabolomic profiles of 5 male and 5 female healthy volunteers with matched age, body mass index (BMI), living and tooth-brushing condition were acquired using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography with quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Metabolites were identified using publicly accessible databases and further confirmed individually with standard compounds. Both multivariant and univariate statistics were conducted to find inter-gender differences.Results · Forty-eight metabolites in human saliva were identified including 13 amino acids, 6 choline metabolites, 15 carnitines, 4 sphinganine metabolites,7 lysophosphatidylcholine and 3 organic acids. Levels of phenylalanine, acetylcarnitine, propionylcarnitine, butyrylcarnitine, isobutyrylcarnitine,isovalerylcarnitine and sphinganine were higher in the saliva of females than that of males. Conclusion · Rich metabolic information present in human saliva with significant gender diffference which ought to be taken into consideration in study on the metabonomics of saliva.

Objective:To investigate the demographic characteristics and the causes for pulmonary hypertension (PH) in adult patients.Methods:A total of 2 508 adult patients diagnosed as PH,who came from the Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from January 2010 to December 2014,were retrospectively investigated.All subjects underwent the clinical diagnosis,or the echocardiographic diagnosis,or thetraditional hemodynamic criteria by right heart catheterization (RHC).The patient's data including hospital numbers,gender,ages,primary diseases,etc,are collected and analyzed.Results:In this study,the number of patients diagnosed as PH was increased year by year.The median age of 2 508 patients was 47 (18-93) years old,and there were 933 males (37.2%),the ratio of male to female was 1:1.69 (P<0.05).Female was more common in Class Ⅰ PH (pulmonary arterial hypertension) and Class Ⅱ PH (pulmonary hypertension due to left heart disease)(>70%),but there were more male patients (74.5%) in Class Ⅲ PH (pulmonary hypertension due to lung diseases and/or hypoxia).In our study,896 cases (35.73%) were the Class Ⅰ PH,1 163 cases was the Class Ⅱ PH (46.37%),411 cases was the Class Ⅲ PH (16.39%),and the Class Ⅳ PH (chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension) and the Class Ⅴ PH (PH with unclear and/ or multifactorial mechanisms) were diagnosed in 32(1.27%) and 6 patients (0.24%),respectively.The diseases with largest number of patients for the top 7 primary PH were rheumatic heart disease (1 090,43.48%),congenital heart disease (692,27.60%),chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (358,14.28%),connective tissue related disease(156,6.22%),valvular heart disease (66,2.63%),idiopathic PH (46,1.83%) and pulmonary embolism (27,1.08%).Conclusion:Adult PH patients' peak incidence age is 41-50 years old.This disease is more common among women,and the Class Ⅰ/Ⅱ PH are common in women while the Class Ⅲ is more common in men.Rheumatic heart disease and congenital heart disease may be the most common cause for pulmonary hypertension in China,and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is the most common cause for the Class Ⅲ PH,in which the patients are old.

Methods 16 166 cases of women were tested using flow fluorescence Luminex technology. Results (1) HPV16 infection rate and mixed infection rate was 2.2%and 28.0%, respectively; (2) The most common type of HPV16 mixed infection was HPV52, followed by HPV33. The two kinds of mixed infection accounted for 39.8% of the total infection rate; (3) There was a significant difference between each age group of HPV16 mixed infection (Chi=26.39, <0.01) . Conclusion The HPV16 infection was mainly HPV infection in Yunnan region. HPV16 mixed infection merged mainly with HPV52 and HPV33. HPV16 mixed infection was associated with age.
