Objective To investigate the correlation between ABCD2 scores and vertebrobasilar artery stenosis in patients with posterior circulation transient ischemic attack (TIA).Methods The patients with posterior circulation TIA who performed cerebral angiography were enrolled in the study,and their ABCD2 scores and imaging data were analyzed.Results A total of 108 patients with posterior circulation TIA were enrolled.There were significant differences in the main trunk stenosis degree of vertebrobasilar artery with different ABCD2 scores in patients with posterior circulation TIA (P =0.005).The overall degree of stenosis increased with the increase of ABCD2 score (P =0.000).After adjustment for other vascular risk factors,ABCD2 score had significant predictive ability for whether had posterior circulation stenosis (odds ratio [OR]1.771,95% confidence interval [CI] 1.234-2.542; P =0.002) and moderate to severe stenosis (OR 2.083,95% CI 1.336-3.176; P =0.001).Its receiver operating characteristic area under the curve was 0.693(95% CI 0.586-0.800) and 0.755 (95% CI 0.661-0.849) respectively.When the ABCD2 score was ≥3,the sensitivity and specificity of predicting posterior circulation stenosis were 62.6% (95% CI 53.4%-71.7%) and 70.6% (95% CI62.0%-79.1%) respectively,and the sensitivity and specificity of predicting posterior circulation stenosis > 50% were 78.7% (95% CI 70.9%-86.4%) and 67.5% (95% CI58.7%-76.3%) respectively.Conclusions In patients with posterior circulation TIA,the stenosis degree of vertebrobasilar arterial trunk increases with the increase of ABCD2 score.In a certain extent,ABCD2 score may predict whether the main trunk of the posterior circulation has stenosis and whether has moderate to severe stenosis.

To compare the clinical effect of phacoemulsification and middle incision extracapsular cataract extraction ( Ml-ECCE) . METHODS: One hundred and eighty - five eyes of phacoemulsification (137 cases) and 185 eyes of 139 cases for Ml-ECCE from January 2011 to May 2013 were involved in this study. And the ratio posterior capsular rupture during surgery, visual acuity, corneal edema, corneal astigmatism and intraocular pressure post operation were followed up.RESULTS: On 1d after surgery, uncorrected visual acuity in the group of Ml-ECCE was better than that of phacoemulsification group, while from 3d; 1 and 3mo after surgery, no significant difference was found from the above two groups. On 1d postoperation, corneal edema ratio in phacoemulsification group ( 45 eyes ) was higher than that in Ml-ECCE group(20 eyes) ( X2=11. 665, P=0. 0006 ) . No significant difference was found for the ratio of posterior capsule rupture during surgery in these two surgical technique groups(X2=0. 094,P=0. 759). On 1wk;1 and 3mo after surgery, significant difference was found for the average of surgical induced corneal astigmatism between two groups (u=6. 661, 6. 880, 4. 187, P = 0. 00, respectively ). During following up, no significant difference was found for the intraocular pressure between two groups ( u=1. 858, 0. 963, 0. 471, 1. 349, 1. 388; P= 0. 063, 0. 335, 0. 638, 0. 177, 0. 165). lntraocular pressure on 1d postoperation in phacoemulsification and Ml-ECCE groups was higher than before operation ( u = 19. 86, 19. 39, P = 0. 00, respectively). And on 1wk; 1 and 3mo postoperation, intraocular pressure in the operated eyes in both groups was lower than before operation for 2~3mmHg.CONCLUSlON: Although phacoemulsification and Ml-ECCE could both get good visual rehabilitation, with similar visual outcome, no significant effect for intraocular pressure, and no severe complications, the latter one owns the advantage that easier maneuver, quicker recovery, and cheaper instruments needed, which is suitable for the hard nuclei cataract in local hospitals. Ml-ECCE is a safe, effective and easy manipulation for local hospital for large batch of cataract surgeries.

BACKGROUND:Currently, there is a lack of efficient, non-invasive way to transplant stem cels to the target organ or tissue. Exploring a way to guide targeting transplantation of stem cels and to improve the efficiency of stem cel homing is now one of focuses in the field of stem cels research.
OBJECTIVE: To establish a simple and feasible method to chemicaly modify the cel surface using biotin-streptavidin reaction system, and to evaluate the efficiency of this method to label bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels (BMSCs) and its effects on cel biological functions.
METHODS: Passage 3 BMSCs were obtained by whole bone marrow culture method and verified by flow cytometry. Biotin, streptavidin, sulfonated biotin-N-hydroxy-succinimide were used to equip the adhesion molecule ligand, sialyated LewisX (SLeX), to the BMSCs surface. The labeling rate of BMSCs was assessed using fluorescence microscope, the vitality of BMSCs was evaluated by trypan blue staining, and the proliferation of BMSCs was evaluated by cel counting kit-8 assay. Adipogenic and osteogenic inductions were used to evaluate the effect of the method on the multi-differentiation function of BMSCs.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: After culture for 2 weeks, passage 3 BMSCs were obtained and confirmed by expressing CD90, CD29 and lack of CD34, CD45. Biotin, streptavidin, sulfonated biotin-N-hydroxy-succinimide were successfuly used to equip sialyated LewisX (SLeX) to the BMSCs surface and had minor effects on the vitality, proliferation, and differentiation of BMSCs. This method was simple for surface modification and had a high modification rate of 88%. The homing of BMSCs modified by this method to the target organ or tissue could be greatly enhanced. Therefore, this method potentialy could have extensive and important applications.

Objective To explore the diangostic value of serumhigh sensitive C-reaction prtein (hsCRP) serum amyloid a (SAA) and C-reaction protein (CRP) in patients who had HBV hepatopathy.Method 127 subjects with hepatopathy caused by HBV infection and 50 control subjects were incorporated in this research,and 47 cases with HBV hepatitis,35 cases with HBV cirrhosis and 45 cases with hepatic failure and SAA and CRP hsCRP of every sample was detected.Results ①Levels of CRP and hsCRP in cases were significantly higher than controls (Mann-Whitney U test,Z=-2.792,-8.458,P<0.01).②The hsCRP levels in the three different groups of cases were different (Kruskal-Wallis test,x2=11.625,P< 0.01).③The hsCRP level of group 2 and 3 was significantly higher than group 1 in the hepatic damage groups (Mann-Whitney U test,Z=-2.849,-2.902,P<0.01).④But the level of SAA had no statistically significant in any group.⑤The seropositivity of hsCRP in cases group was 76.29 % and it was higher than CRP (11.34 %) and SAA(26.80 %).Conclusion The diangosic value of CRP and hsCRP may better than SAA in the patients who got HBV hepatic damage which maybe caused by detection method as hsCRP is better than CRP.

High performance liquid chromatography-time-off-flight mass spectrometer (HPLC-TOFMS) technology coupled with partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) processed by SIMCA-P software was applied to investigate serum endogenous metabolites alternations of valsartan in spontaneous hypertension rats (SHR). And MetPA platform was used to connect identified potential biomarkers in corresponding metabolic pathways to find possible therapeutic mechanism of valsartan. Valsartan significantly declined the blood pressure of SHRs (P < 0.05) at fourth week. The metabolic profiling significantly changed and four metabolites involved in G protein-coupled pathway were identified. Metabolomics is able to detect holistic and microcosmic alternations in organism, so as to elucidate therapeutic mechanism of drugs.
