Objectives:To study the distribution status,clinical manifestations and laboratory test characteristics of alpha-thalassaemia gene type in the city of ChongQing to approach the importance of genetic diagnosis for alpha-thalassaemia,and the significance of thia diagnosis for antenatal screening and prenatal diagnosis to promote the survival quality of human being.Methods:This study was performed in the Children's Hospital of Chongqing Medical University.One hundred and three alpha -thalassaemia patients were involved in this study.They had taken the tests of serum iron(SI),total iron binding capacity(TIBC),transferrin saturation(TS),hemoglobin(Hb)electrophoresis and genetic examination.Retrospective study and prospective study were performed with the results.Results:(1)A total of 72 patients underwent SI,TIBC and TS,and 55.56 %(40/72) patients had SI decreased,TIBC increased and TS decreased.(2) 92 serum samples from these patients had Hb electrophoresis,in which 31.52%(29/92) presented fast band.(3) In this study,there were 82.52%(85/103) deletional alpha-thalassaemia and 17.48%(18/103) non-deletional alpha-thalassaemia.(4) In 85 deletional alpha-thalassaemia,alpha0-thalassaemia was more than alpha+-thalassaemia.Conclusion:(1) Deletion form is the main form of ? thalassaemia in ChongQing.(2) alpha0-thalassaemia is less than alpha+-thalassaemia.(3) Genetic diagnosis is the gold standard for this disease.(4) It should be emphasized that antenatal screening and prenatal diagnosis are important for better lives of human beings.(5) Alpha-thalassaemia can affiliate nutritional iron deficiency anemia(NIDA).

Objective:To discuss the different expression of AQP8 in cultured normal human trophocyte and JAR cell line,and the relationship between the changed expression of the channel protein and nosogenesis of chorionic carcinoma.Methods:The human cultured normal trophocyte was primarily cultured,purified and identified.JAR cell line was cultured.The expression of AQP8 was detected in cultured normal human trophocyte and JAR cell line by immunohistochemistry immunofluorescence confocal laser and RT-PCR.Results:(1)In the control group,the limitied expression of AQP8 was observed in cultured normal human trophocyte and JAR cell line,but in the exprimental group,the rate of positive cell of AQP8 in JAR cell line were 93.27%?14.45%,much higher than that in the control group.(2)By immunofluorescence staining confocal laser imaging,it was revealed that,in the same condition and excitation intensity,AQP8 in the JAR choriocarcinoma cell lines showed positive expression of the green,while in normal trophoblast cells,no green light,but when the excitation intensity was strengthened,it may still explore AQP8 in normal human villous trophoblast cell expression(.3)The expression of AQP8mRNA was detected in both cultured normal human trophocyte and JAR cell line.The OD value(0.98?0.35)of AQP8 in the experimental group was significantly higher than that(0.32?0.04)in the control group.Conclusion:Abnormal overexpression of AQP8 will destroy the external water and electrolyte balance of trophoblast cells,which might be one of the reasons for the occurrence of choriocarcinoma.

[Objective] To observe the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on learning and cerebral heme oxygenase (HO) activity in rats with vascular dementia (VD). [Methods] Sixty rats were randomly allocated to mimic group (Group A), EA group (Group B), nimotone group (Group C) and model group (Group D) . Rat models of VD were established by 4 - vessel occulusion (4 - VO) method. Ten days after modeling, Group B was trested with EA on Baihui (GV20) and Dazhui (GV14), one time per day; Group C with nimotone, 20ml/kg body weight, ig, qd. The treatment course lasted 15 days. And then the learning was estimated with Morris water maze and HO activity in cortex and hippocampus (HC) of rats was also measured. [Results] Mean escape latency within 6 days in EA group was shorter than that in model group ( P 0.05). In EA group, the swimming times in the original platform quadrant were more than that in the right, left or opposite quadrant and also more than that in the original platform quadrant in the model group (P

Objective:To research the effect of total saponins Panax ginseng (TSPG) on the drug resistance of human erythroleukemia drug resistant cell line K562/A02 and its mechanism.Methods:The sensitivity of TSPG-treated K562/A02 cells to anticancer drugs was determined by MTT assay.Immunohistochemistry method was used to measure mdr-1 gene product P-gp and apoptosis regulation gene product bcl-2 expression. RT-PCR technique was used to examine mdr-1 mRNA expression.Results:In non-toxic dosages, TSPG strengthened the toxicity effect of doxorubicin on K562/A02 cells, while the reversing effect of TSPG was related to its concentration. Decrease in P-gp expression in K562/A02 cells was marked ( P O. 05)after 3 days of TSPG(150?g/ml)treatment.Decrease in mdr-1 mRNA expression was significant ( P

BACKGROUND:Diabetes mel itus after kidney transplantation is an important metabolic complication of the transplanted organ, and seriously affects the quality of life and long-term survival rate of patients, which is a risk factor for renal al ograft dysfunction and cardiovascular disease. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the changes in fasting blood glucose and prognosis of patients who had survived more than 1 year after renal transplantation. METHODS:Total y 42 patients undergoing renal transplantation admitted at Xiantao First People’s Hospital from January 2003 to January 2013, including 7 cases of preoperative diabetes, 11 cases of impaired fasting glucose and 24 cases of normal fasting blood glucose. Fasting blood glucose levels were detected at 1, 7, 14 days and 1, 3, 6, 12 months after renal transplantation, and the survival conditions were also compared among different groups. Cox proportional hazard model was used to analyze influential factors of survival in patients undergoing renal transplantation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The fasting blood glucose levels in the diabetes mel itus group were significantly higher than those in the impaired fasting glucose group and normal fasting blood glucose group before and after renal transplantation (P<0.05). The fasting blood glucose levels were increased in al the groups at 1 day after transplantation (P<0.05), and stabilized at 3 months after transplantation. The survival rate was significantly higher in the normal fasting blood glucose group than in the diabetes mel itus and impaired fasting glucose groups after renal transplantation (P<0.05). Cox proportional hazard model analysis showed that preoperative fasting blood glucose, age, postoperative tumor and infection were the independent risk factors for death in patients undergoing renal transplantation, among which, postoperative tumor led to the highest death risk ratio that was 2.376. Taken together, preoperative diabetes mel itus has some impacts on renal recipients who survive more than 1 year fol owing transplantation, but postoperative diabetes mel itus had no influence on the survival rate of the patients.

?AIM: To observe the application of phacoemulsification combined with laser peripheral iridoplasty ( LPIP ) for acute angle-closure glaucoma with cataract which could not be controlled well by drugs.?METHODS:From January 2011 to June 2015, 49 eyes in 47 patients with acute angle - closure glaucoma and cataract were recruited while their intraocular pressure remained higher than 40mmHg 12h after drug treatment. LPIP were performed and phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation were carried out 3d after. Their clinical data and follow-up results were reviewed.?RESULTS: The intraocular pressure before treatment, 1d after LPIP, 1d after phacoemulsification, 1mo after phacoemulsification and 3mo after phacoemulsification were 62. 35+10. 31mmHg, 17. 96 ± 4. 64 mmHg, 16. 58 ± 3. 19mmHg, 13. 50 ± 2. 74 mmHg and 13. 46 ± 2. 48 mmHg respectively (F=10. 02,P<0. 05); the intraocular pressure of 1d (t=4. 35), 1mo (t=6. 43) and 3mo (t=6. 97) after phacoemulsification were all lower than the initial pressure (P<0. 05). The visual acuity showed the same trendy, while the visual acuity before treatment, 1d after LPIP, 1d, 1 and 3mo after phacoemulsification were 0. 06± 0. 02, 0. 20 ± 0. 18, 0. 45 ± 0. 19, 0. 60 ± 0. 11 , 0. 65 ± 0. 09 respectively (F=8. 36,P<0. 05). The best corrected visual acuity at 1d, 1 and 3mo after phacoemulsification were better than that before laser treatment ( t= 3. 97, 5. 12, 5. 89,P<0. 05). At 1d and 3mo after phacoemulsification, the anterior chamber depth, angle opening distance, trabecular/iris angle were all better than the initial ones (P<0. 05). At 1 and 3mo after phacoemulsification, the goniosynechia got better as well (P<0. 05).?CONCLUSION:Phacoemulsification combined with LPIP can reduce intraocular pressure, improve the visual acuity and make the anterior chamber depth, angle opening distance, trabecular/ iris angle, goniosynechia better for patients with acute angle-closure glaucoma and cataract when drug cannot control intraocular pressure well.

Objective To realize current status of healthcare-associated infection (HAI)in a neonatal intensive care unit(NICU)of a hospital,and evaluate the effect of comprehensive intervention measures.Methods HAI in NICU was monitored,targeted intervention measures were implemented,incidence of HAI before and after inter-vention was compared.Results The implementation rates of intervention measures at intervention stage was higher than that of pre-intervention stage,the difference was significant(all P <0.001 ).Incidence of HAI at intervention stage was lower than that of pre-intervention stage(5.64%[46/816]vs 13.45% [46/342],χ2 =20.12,P <0.001). The main infection site was lower respiratory tract (38.04% [35/92]).Incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia and catheter-related bloodstream infection after intervention were both lower than pre-intervention stage (0.38‰ vs 3.30‰,0.12‰ vs 1 .18‰,respectively).The main isolated pathogens before and after intervention were both gram-positive bacteria,accounting for 58.09% and 51 .16% respectively.Conclusion Routine HAI monitoring can reflect the weak links in infection control practice,HAI can be controlled effectively by carrying out intervention measures.
