To investigate the change and clinical significance of interleukin(IL)-23 and IL-17 levels preliminarily in peripheral blood of patients with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS).The levels of IL-23 and IL-17 in serum and culture supernatants of peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMCs)were determined by ELISA in patients with OSAHS and normal volunteers.To observe the changes of IL-23 and IL-17 levels before and after the treatment of Han-uvulopalatopharyngoplasty(H-UPPP) in patients with OSAHS.The levels of IL-23 and IL-17 in serum and culture supernatants of PBMCs in patients with OSAHS were significantly higher than those in normal control group(P<0.05),and the levels of serum IL-23 and IL-17 were increased with the disease severity.The levels of IL-23 presented positively correlated with those of IL-17 in both serum and culture supernatants of PBMCs(rs=0.644,P<0.01;rs=0.251,P<0.05).After two months later of H-UPPP surgery, the levels of serum IL-23 and IL-17 were significantly lower than that before the treatment(P<0.05)as well as the apnea-hypopnea index.The sleep quality and low oxygen was improved obviously, and the lowest oxyhemoglobin saturation elevated significantly(P<0.05).IL-23 and IL-17 may play an important role in pathogenesis and prognosisof OSAHS.

Objective To study the time distribution of non-agriculture employed population spent in a working day in China, and to provide basic information for intervention strategies.Methods The data of 2002 China Nutrition and Health Survey were used. The information on daily activities including occupation,transportation,exercise,housework,sedentary activity and sleep was described.Results Non-agriculture employed population spent 8.41 h,0.58 h,0.09 h,3.11 h,1.40 h and 7.89 h on occupation, transportation,exercise,sedentary activity,housework and sleep,respectively.Administrator,technologist and clerks spent less time on occupation activity than service workers,production and transportation workers and others did,and they spent more time on sedentary activity.Male spent more time on occupation activity and less time on housework and sleep than female did.People in rural area spent more time on occupation activity than those in urban area,but less time On transportation and sedentary activity.Conclusion Differences in time use among different employed groups,gender and area were found,which should be considered when intervention measure is developed.

Objective To evaluate the possible association among serum folate,polymorphisms related reduced folate carrier gene (RFC-1) AS0G,methionine synthase reductase gene (MTRR) A66G,and cervical cancer,and to provide clues for the etiology of cervical cancer.Methods Based on a hospital-based case-control study,107 cases diagnosed as cervical cancer pathematologically and 107 controls with hysteromyoma,were selected by frequency,matched with age and habitation.Serum folate concentration was detected by RIA and polymorphism RFC-1 A80G and MTRR A66G was examed by RFLP-PCR.Results Serum folate concentration in patient group [(1.86±0.60) ng/rml] was significantly lower than that in control group [(2.30 ± 1.14) ng/ml],and risk of cervical cancer increased with the decreased serum folate levels (x2trend =12.57,P =0.001).Risks to catch cervical cancer for women with RFC-1 80 GG were 2.42 times (95 ％ CI 1.01-5.81) as much as for those with RFC-1 80 AA,and 1.65 times (95 ％ CI 0.77-3.53) for those with RFC-1 80 AA and RFC-1 80 AG,risks to catch cervical cancer for women with MTRR 66 GG were 1.35 times (95 ％ CI 0.40-4.56) as much as for those with MTRR 66 AA and 1.26 times (95 ％ CI 0.38-4.16) for those with RFC-1 80 AA and RFC-1 80 AG.Conclusion Serum folate deficiency to a certain degree can increase the risk of cervical cancer.RFC-1 A80G mutation may be a risk factor for cervical cancer and homozygous (GG) gene may increase the susceptibility of cervical cancer.MTRR A66G gene mutation may have nothing to do with cervical cancer.

Objective To evaluate the curative effect of urokinase combined with low molecular heparin sodium in managing arteriovenous fistula embolism. Methods Toally 48 patients with arteriovenous fistula embolism treated from January 2014 to October 2015 were selected for the study, where 22 were assigned into control group and 26 as trial group according to the registration time. The former group were treated with urokinase and the latter with urokinase combined with low molecular heparin sodium. The rate of recanalization, the rate of thrombosis recurrence, and the adverse reactions were compared between the two groups. Results The recanalization rate in the trial group was higher than that in the control group (P<0.05). The rate of thrombosis recurrence in the trial group was significantly lower than that the control group. There was no statistical difference in adverse reactions between the groups. Conclusion The thrombolytic effect of urokinase combined with low molecular heparin sodium is superior to that of urokinase alone, with a higher rate of recanalization.

Objective To design a chock-vault antenna for injurious interventional thermotherapy and to evaluate antenna performance change when structure parameters of the antenna are adjusted. Methods Finite element method was used to simulate the distributions of the reflection coefficient and the specific absorption rate (SAR) of the chock-vault antenna of different structure parameters for microwave thermotherapy human muscle tissue model when it worked at 2 450 MHz. The chock-vault antenna for injurious interventional thermotherapy had been optimized. Results This antenna was made.And the reflection coefficient and SAR were measured with human muscle tissue model experiment. The simulation results were validated. Conclusion The SAR distribution of the improved choke-vault antenna does not depend on depth of the insertion tissue. The reflection coefficient can be reduced greatly. The top energy distribution is reasonable.
