A method for the digestion of food samples by using PTFE closed-vessel microwave oven has been established. Six elements in the solution were determined by ICP-AES. The effects of various acid mixtures and digestion time were studied. 0.2 g of powdered samples dried for four hours at 80℃ were weighed and put into 50 ml PTFE digestion vessels. 2 ml of 70% HNO3 and 1 ml of 30% H2O2 were added to each sample digestion vessel. The screw caps were tightened and placed on the microwave oven PTFE turntable for 3 min at 100% full power (500W). When digestion was finished, the vessels were cooled for 10 min in a medical refrigerator at -25℃. The sample solutions were diluted to 25 ml with subboiling water. The contents of Ca, Mg, Mn, Fe, Zn and Cu in 3 standard reference materials were determined by ICP-AES. The results are in good agreement with certified values.

BACKGROUND: How to make growth factor plays a role persistently and efficiently is a key in constructing bone tissue engineered bone. Currently, varied microspheres or scaffolds were used as release carriers, however, the delayed release effects needs elevating.OBJECTIVE: To prepare chitosan microosPheres/nano-hydroxyapatite/poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (CMs/nHA/PLGA) scaffolds, and to measure its characteristics of delayed release of bovine serum albumin (BSA).METHODS: CMs were prepared by an emulsifying cross linking method with BSA as a model protein. Using ice particulates as porogen, composite CMs/nHA/PLGA scaffolds were prepared by freeze-drying. The characteristic and morphology of the composite were observed by scanning electron microscope, later particle size analyzer, mercury porosimeter and universal testing machine, and the release behavior of BSA was investigated in vitro.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The CMs were spherical shape with a regular surface, with diameters of 20-40 μm. The encapsulation efficiency of the CMs was 86.5%, and the loading capacity was 0.8%. With the increase of initial BSA dosage, the loading capacity increased to 2.6%, while the encapsulation efficiency decreased to 74.1%. The CMs can be uniformly distributed in PLGA scaffolds to form CMs/nHA/PLGA scaffolds, which had 100-400 μm pore diameter and over 80% porosity, with 1.1-2.3 pMPa compressive strength, and 26.5% cumulative degradation at 10 weeks. The cumulative release of BSA from nHA/PLGA scaffolds was above 85% at 36 hours, which from CMs was 33.6% at 10 days, and that from CMs/nHA/PLGA scaffolds was 81.5% at 40 days. The results demonstrated that CMs/nHA/PLGA scaffolds have an excellent releasing efficiency for protein drugs with suitable compressive strength and degradation, which would be used as delivery system and tissue engineering scaffolds.

Objective To assess the clinical efficacy and adverse effect of pemetrexed-based chemotherapy as first-line treatment in elderly patients with advanced non-squamous non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Methods A total of 40 elderly patients with advanced non-squamous NSCLC confirmed by pathology were retrospective analyzed in the study,who received pemetrexed plus cisplatin (group A,n =18) or pemetrexed plus carboplatin (group B,n =22) as the first-line treatment.RECIST was used to assess the efficacy of the treatment and NCI-CTC AE version was used to describe adverse events.Results In the 40 patients,no one received complete response (CR),17 patients showed partial response (PR),16 had stable disease (SD),7 had progress disease (PD),the objective response rate (ORR) was 42.5 ％ (17/40) and the disease control rate (DCR) was 82.5 ％ (33/40).The median progression-free survival (PFS) time was 5.3 months.1 year suvival rate was 63.2 ％ (24/38).In further subgroup analyses,the ORR,DCR,PFS and 1 year suvival rate in group A were higher than those in group B,but they had no statistically significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).The drug-related adverse events were myelosuppression,gastrointestinal response,most of which were grade 1 to 2.Conclusion Pemetrexed combined with cisplatin or carboplatin may be recommended as first-line chemotherapy for elderly patients with advanced non-squamous NSCLC because of its safety and efficacy.

Objective To investigate the genetic effects of radio-frequency radiation (RF-radiation) on mammalian somatic cells. Methods A meta-analysis of reported data (1991-2009) was conducted to obtain a quantitative estimate of genotoxicity ( including single-and double-strand breaks in the DNA, incidence of chromosome aberration, micronuclei, and sister chromatid exchanges) in RF-radiationexposed cells compared with sham-exposed cells or unexposed control cells. Results After RF-radiation exposure, the weighted mean difference and its 95% confidence interval was 1.03(0. 74, 1.31 )for comet tail length in radiation group, and was 0. 10 (0. 04, 0. 16) for comet tail moment compared with control group. Relative risk and its 95% confidence interval for chromosome aberration was 1.21 (0. 68, 2. 13 )for lower than 2000 MHz RF-radiation exposure group, and 1.76( 1.05, 2.97 ) for more than 2000 MHz RF-radiation exposure group. The combined relative risk and its 95% confidence interval for micronuclei formation was 1.39(1.18-1.64). The combined WMD and its 95% confidence interval for sister chromatid exchanges in radiation group was 0. 40 ( - 0. 33,1.14 ) compared with control group. Conclusions On certain RF radiation exposure conditions, it can increase in the DNA damages and micronuclei formation.There might be an increase of chromosomal aberration occurrence for RF-radiation exposure above 2000 MHz, while no significant differences for those lower than 2000 MHz RF-radiation exposure. For the incidence of sister chromatid exchanges in mammalian somatic cells, RF-radiation exposure had no significant influence.

Conclusion: The sternocleidomastoid myoperiosteal flap is an ideal transplant for cervical tracheal reconstruction.

1. 5 cm) sessile colorectal polyps referred for EMR. After submucosal injection of epinephrine, either en bloc or piecemeal snare polypectomy were performed. All resected specimens were retrieved for pathologic study. Follow-up colonoscopy was performed in all patients after EMR. Results All 157 polyps were removed completely. All lesions are larger than 1. 5cm, but 3 less than 1 cm on the submucosa of rectum. The largest one is 13 cm X 12 cm. No complication occurred. Histopathologic assessment of the resection specimens revealed the following: adenoma, 123; dysplasia, 80; mucosal carcinoma, 11; hyperplastic polyps, 20; rectal carcinoid, 3. Two patients who had rectal adenoma that was larger than 7cm recurrence happened at the resection site after 1 and 3 months follow-up respectively, than removed completely by hot biopsy forceps showed hyperplastic and villous adenoma on pathological study. No more residual tumor was detected for 6-12 months. Conclusion EMR with an intensive follow-up program is a safe and effective treatment for large sessile colorectal polyps and mucosal carcinoma.

Objective To research and analyze serological and virological epidemiology charactererization of occult hepatitis B virus infection in Jiaxing volunteer blood donors.Methods 52 698 samples were screened by ELISA(HBsAg、antiHCV 、anti-HIV、anti-TP) and Nucleic acid amplification technique(NAT),then NAT positive samples were further identified to detect virus type.HBsAg-/HBV-DNA+ samples were collected in three different kinds of qualitative HBsAg detection of ELISA kit.The quantitative determination of HBsAg and anti-HBs were used by chemiluminescencemethod.At the same time,real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (QPCR) was used to measure the viral load of HBV.Further analysis and study on the serological and virological distribution of OBI combined with five markers of hepatitis B virus (HBV),with tracing general epidemiological data (sex,age and age).Results The prevalence rate of OBI was 0.89‰ (1 ∶ 1 121) in all donors with OBI infection,and 2 cases of window period (WP) were found in 52698 donors (1 ∶ 26 349).The results of HBsAg and HBeAg were negative in 49 HBsAg-/HBV-DNA+ samples,and 6OBI serological profiles were found.Anti-HBs quantitative concentration(＞100 mIU/mL)accounted for 27.66％ (13/47),while anti-HBc+ positive rate was 91.49％ (43/47).HBV-DNA nucleic acid quantitative ranged from 4.10 to 1.82× 103(IU/mL) (median of 15.83),whereas HBsAg+/HBV-DNA+positive viral load was in the range of 61.47 to 1.28× 104(IU/mL) (median of 538.15).The difference was significant in viral load between experiment group and control group(P＜0.05).Male donors of more than 40 years were higher in prevalence rate of OBI infection (P＜0.05),meanwhile there was a significant difference in OBI infection rate between repeated blood donors and fnrst blood donors(0.01＜P＜0.05).Conclusion The viral load was low in OBI infected donors,and anti-HBc+ was the main manifestation.NAT had the ability to detect OBI,shorten the window period,and contributed to ensure the safety of clinical blood.
