Objective:To establish an animal model of oral lichen planus (OLP). Methods:Human non-erosive OLP lesion tissue was surgically transplanted into dorsal hypoderm or tongue abdomen in 10 severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) mice, thereafter, growth and possible alterations of histopathological characteristics of the xenografts were observed for 2 weeks. Results:All the xenografts transplanted into dorsal hypoderm or tongue abdomen healed well.Partial liquefaction and subepithelial lymphocytes diffuse infiltration were observed in epithelial basement membrane in the first week after transplantation. During the subsequent week, the degenerated moiety was hardly to be seen, and the number of subepithelial lymphocytes was gradually decreased. Conclusions:The epithelia of OLP xenografts grow well in SCID mice but can not keep its histopathological features.

Objective To investigate the sensitivity of the real-time fluorescence PCR technique and the bacterial culture for detecting the colonization of group B Streptococcus(GBS)in late pregnant women.Methods 2 specimens were collected from preg-nant women genital tract-rectal secretions swabs,one specimen for conducting the bacterial culture and another for conducting the real-time PCR technique to detect genital GBS.The accuracy and rapidness were compared between the two methods.308 cases of pregnant women were divided into the GBS positive group and the GBS negative group according to the detection results of the real time real-time fluorescence PCR technique.The relation between the occurrence of premature rupture of membranes with GBS was investigated by the comparative analysis.Results Among 308 pregnant women with GBS detection,18 cases were positive by the ordinary bacterial culture with the positive rate of 5.8%(18/308),while 28 cases were positive by the real-time fluorescent PCR with the positive rate of 9.4%(29/308).In the GBS positive group detected by PCR,the premature rupture of membranes occurred in 9 cases with the positive rate of 31%,while in the GBS negative group detected by PCR,which occurred in 33 cases with the pos-itive rate of 11.83%.Conclusion This survey shows that the positive detection rate of the real-time fluorescent PCR technique is significantly higher than that of the bacterial culture method,the application of this detection technique for detecting GBS provides the basis for rapidly diagnosing GBS and conducting the prophylactic use of antibacterial drugs more accurately and more effectively.

Objective:To explore the lipid-regulating effect and safety of atorvastatin combined fenofibrate therapy in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD)complicated diabetes mellitus (DM).Methods:A total of 100 pa-tients with CHD complicated DM were enrolled.Based on routine treatment,patients were randomly and equally di-vided into statin group (n=50,received 20mg atorvastatin,once/night)and combined treatment group (n=50,re-ceived 20mg atrovastatin once/night,combined fenofibrate 200mg once/d).Serum levels of total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG),low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) were measured before,six and 12 weeks after treatment,levels and standard-reaching rates of above blood lipid were observed before and after treatment;adverse reactions and clinical events were recorded.Results:Compared with before treatment after six-week treatment,there were significant reductions in serum levels of TC,TG and LDL-C in both groups,and they further decreased after 12-week treatment (P <0.05~ <0.01),compared with statin group after 12-week treatment,there were significant reductions in levels of TC [(4.35±0.71)mmol/L vs. (4.09±0.56)mmol/L],TG [(2.35±0.62)mmol/L vs.(1.65±0.49)mmol/L]and LDL-C [(2.01 ±0.39) mmol/L vs.(1.85±0.22)mmol/L]in combined treatment group,P <0.05 or <0.01;HDL-C level significantly rose in both groups after treatment,and it′s more significant after 12 weeks,but there was no significant difference between statin group and combined treatment group (P >0.05).After 12-week treatment,standard-reaching rates of LDL-C,TG,HDL-C,all standard-reaching of above three indexes and non HDL-C (70%,68%,80%,58% and 70%)in combined treatment group were significantly higher than those of statin group (50%,46%,48%,10% and 48%)respectively,P <0.05 or <0.01. No severe adverse reactions were observed in two groups during treatment. Conclusion:Atorvastatin combined fenofibrate treatment is more effective than atorvastatin monotherapy in patients with coronary heart disease complicated diabetes mellitus.It can improve blood lipid level more comprehensively, contribute to comprehensive standard-reaching of blood lipids,and possess better safety and tolerance.

Objective To investigate infection rate of human papillomavirus as well as the correlation between cervical precancerous lesions and co-infection of human HPV,herpes simple virus-2 (HSV-2) and cytomegalovirus (CMV) in Chinese women of childbearing age in Kunming,Yunnan province.Methods A total of 2128 women (18-24,25-34,35-49 years of age),who had healthy care examination in our institute from January 2010 to March 2011,were selected prospectively in this study.The infection of HPV,HSV-2 and CMV were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (FQ-PCR) and cervical precancerous lesions were determined by the ThinPrep liquid-based cytology test (TCT).Results The overall infection rates of high risk HPV (HR-HPV),HSV-2,CMV were 11.04％(235/2128),3.52％ (75/2128) and 5.26％ (112/2128),respectively.The HR-HPV infection rates in groups of Negative for Intraepithelial Lesion or Malignancy (NILM),Atypical Squamous Cells of Undetermined Significance (ASCUS),Low grade Squamous Intraepithelial Lesion (LSIL),High grade Squamous Intraepithelial Lesion(HSIL),and Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC) were 4.29％ (82/1912),55.93％ (66/118),84.62％ (44/52),93.19％ (41/44) and 2/2,respectively.HR-HPV infection rates was increased with the development of cervical lesion (r =0.644,P =0.000).No significant difference on the infection rates of HR-HPV and HSV-2 was identified between different age groups (x2 =2.979,P =0.226; x2 =0.798,P =0.671).The peak age groups for CMV infection (7.62％) were 18 to 24 years old and the infection rates of CMV decrease with age.No significant difference of HSV-2 and HR-HPV coinfection was found between the TCT-abnormal (3.24％,7/216) and control groups (2.41％,46/1912,x2 =0.557,P=0.455),and no relationship was found between HSV-2 and HR-HPV infection groups (OR =0.56,95％ CI:0.17-1.82).The infection of HR-HPV were related significantly with CMV infection (OR =3.14,95％ CI:1.25-7.86).Conclusion HR-HPV infection appears to be the key risk factor for cervical cancer and synergistic interaction may occur between CMV and HPV infections in the development of cervical lesion.

Objective To evaluate contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) for the diagnosis and follow-up of hepatocellular carcinoma ( HCC) patients after percutaneous radiofrequence ablation ( RFA). Methods The data of 46 HCC cases were reviewed in our study. Results of contrast enhanced computed tomography (CT) , ultrasound contrast agent sonography and grey ultrasound were compared with each other pre- and after percutaneous radiofrequence ablation. Results Contrast agent ultrasound imaging had the same value with CT in preoperative diagnosis of HCC, with postive likelihood ratio of 1.26 and 1.31, respectively,sensitivity of 97% and 91% and specificity of 23% and 31% respectively. For grey ultrasound the positive likelihood ratio was 0.99, sensitivity and specificity was 76% and 23% respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of contrast-enhanced ultrasound after percutaneous radiofrequence ablation was 60% and 90% respectively, and the postive likelihood ratio and negative likelihood ratio was 6. 18 and 0. 44 respectively. The difference was significant while compared with CT (P = 0. 012). All cases were followed-up from 1 to 9 months, and all were alive with recurrence found by contrast-enhanced ultrasound in 3 cases. Conclusions Contrast agent ultrasound imaging is sensitive and effective in the diagnosis of HCC and follow-up after percutaneous radiofrequence ablation.

OBJECTIVEThis study aims to observe and compare the influences of the casting alloy post and cores on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

METHODSSix casting alloy post and sores were fabricated for the experimental groups, and zirconia post and core served as the control. The seven types of post and cores were of the same size and shape. Each post and core was orally fastened to a volunteer and then imaged with sequences of T1-weighted spin echo imaging (SE-T1WI), T2-weighted turbo spin-echo imaging (TSE-T2WI), and diffusion weighted imaging (DWI).

RESULTSCobalt chromium alloy post and core generated severe artifacts, whereas gold palladium alloy post and core generated no obvious artifacts, and no difference was observed between the zirconia and the gold palladium alloy post and cores (P > 0.05). The pure titanium alloy post and core produced mild artifacts. The post and cores of the titanium, nickel-cadmium, and gold platinum alloys generated moderate artifacts with no significant differences (P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONDifferent metal post and cores have different influences on MRI. With the exception of that generated by cobalt chromium alloy, the artifact generated by the single-alloy post and core does not influence the image of the normal head and neck.

Objective To investigate the MR manifestations and diagnostic value in patients with choroidal fissure cyst of the brain. Methods Characteristic MR findings in 16 patients with choroidal fissure cyst were retrospectively analyzed, and the correlation between MR imaging and clinical manifestations was reviewed. Results The cysts were situated within the choroidal fissure in all cases, representing as cystic lesion with clear border, no detectable soft tissue mass in the cyst wall or adjacent area, homogenous signal intensity identical to CSF on all sequences, with the average size of 0.9 cm?1.3 cm?1.5 cm, and no associated edema. Gd-DTPA was performed in 6 cases and revealed no evidence of enhancement. Conclusion The choroidal fissure cyst of the brain is a benign and congenital developmental abnormality, and has minor clinical significance. Because of its specific anatomic location, the choroidal fissure cysts simulate intraparenchymal cystic lesions on axial images. Coronal and sagittal MR imaging can be used to delineate its extraaxial location and make the correct diagnosis, and, thus, differentiate with other cystic lesions.

Background Bevacizumab has been widely used in the treatment of new blood vessel disease in ophthalmology.The investigation of the pharmacokinetics and safety after intracameral injection of bevacizumab can offer the basis for the management of iris neovascularization and neovascular glaucoma.Objective The present study was to observe the distribution of bevacizumab(avastin)in eye tissue and toxic effects following the injection of anterior chamber.Methods Twenty-four New Zealand albino rabbits were divided into two groups randomly.0.05 ml (1.25mg)of Bevacizumab was intracamerally injected into the left eyes in the experimental group,and a balanced salt solution of 0.05 ml was injected in the same way into the left eyes of the control group.The anterior segment of eyes and ocular fundus were examined by slit-lamp microscope and direct ophthalmoscope after injection.Intraocular pressure was measured and corneal endothelial microscopy was performed before and after the injections.Five rabbits of the two groups were sacrificed on the first day,the fourth day,the seventh day,the fourteenth day,and the thirtieth day after injection,and the eyeballs were enucleated for histopathological examination.The ultrastructure of eye tissue was observed under the transmission electron microscope on the fourth day and the thirtieth day,and then immunofluorescence staining were performed to assess the distribution of bevacizumab in the eye tissues.This experiment complied with the Regulations for the Administration of Affair Concerning Experimental Animals by State Science and Technology Commission(Version 1988).Results No abnormality in the cornea,lens,vitreous and retina was observed after the injection of bevacizumab under the slit lamp microscope and direct ophthalmoscope.No significant differences were found in intraocular pressure and corneal endothelial cell density in the bevacizumab group compared with the control group before injection and 2 hours,1 day,7 days,14 days,30 days after injection(P =0.760,P =0.956).No histopathological and ultrastructural changes of the cornea,lens,chamber angle,iris,ciliary body and retina were seen after the injection in the experimental group and control group under the light microscope and transmission electron microscope.Bevacizumab was distributed in the anterior chamber angle,iris,ciliary body,choroid and retina in injected eyes and fellow eyes after intracameral injection with red fluorescence and presented the dynamic changes with the lapse of time.The immunofluorescence response of eye tissue to bevacizumab was weaker in the fellow eyes compared with injected eyes.Bevacizumab was mainly distributed in the vessel wall and lumen.Conclusions Bevacizumab can quickly distribute in the vascular tissue of the anterior chamber angle,iris,ciliary body,choroid and retina in injected eyes after intracameral injection without obvious toxic effects to eye tissue.Bevacizumab administered intracamerally may be a new strategy or a joint strategy for iris neovascularisation.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the improvement effect of Prostatitis capsule on chronic non-bacterial prostatitis(CNP) model rats. METHODS:60 rats were randomly divided into sham operation group (distilled water),model group (distilled wa-ter),Pule'an tablet group(positive control,2 g/kg)and Prostatitis capsule high-dose,medium-dose,low-dose groups(16,8,4 g/kg). Except for sham operation group,other 5 groups were injected Xiaozhiling injection 0.2 mL to reduce CNP model. After 7 d of modeling,they received related medicines,ig,once a day,for 45 d. After 24 h of last administration,prostate lesions were ob-served by eyes and wet quality was weighed. White blood cell(WBC)count and lecithin body(SPL)count were conducted under microscope,and prostate tissue slices were pathologically observed. RESULTS:Compared with sham operation group,prostate showed gray nodules,adhesion in glands and surrounding tissue;wet quality of prostate and WBC,SPL count in prostate tissue were significantly increased(P<0.01);under microscope,there were significant congestion,edema and a variety of inflammatory cell infiltration in prostate interstitial. Compared with model group,gray nodules in prostate in Pule'an tablet group and Prostatitis capsule group were reduced,as well as adhesion degree in prostate and surrounding tissue;wet quality of prostate and WBC,SPL count in prostate tissue were significantly decreased(P<0.01);pathological changes had improved to varying degrees under micro-scope,especially the changes in Prostatitis capsule high-dose group,and prostate tissue only showed mild congestion,edema and little inflammatory cell infiltration. CONCLUSIONS:Prostatitis capsule has a certain improvement effect on CNP model rats.
