Objective To evaluate the feasibility of detecting peripheral artery disease (PAD) using ankle-brachial index (ABI) determined by an electronic sphygmomanometer in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). Method The brachial blood pressure and the ankle blood pressure were measured in each upper limbs and lower limbs by the Doppler ultrasound method and the electronic sphygmomanometer method in fifty-nine DM patients who were selected from Department of Geriatric Endocrinology of General Hospital of PLA. ABI was calculated with the formula of ABI = ankle systolic blood pressure/ brachial systolic blood pressure. The measurement data were expressed as x?s. Then the data of systolic pressure and ABI were analyzed by paired Student's t tests and correlations. The related diagnosis criteria of PAD, such as sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and the global accuracy were calculated. Furthermore, the correlation of brachial blood pressure as measured by the electronic sphygmomanometer and the mercury column sphygmomanometer was compared. Results There were no significant differences but good correlations between the data of systolic pressures and ABI obtained as measured by two methods. The correlation for systolic pressure was: right upper limbs 0.92, P

BACKGROUND:CTLA-4Ig as a tolerance-induction agent is a potential strategy in graft-versus-host disease prevention. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the efficacy of CTLA4Ig-gene-modified bone marrow stromal cels mediated by adenovirus to induce T-cel tolerance of haploidentical donors. METHODS: The bone marrow stromal cels isolated culture from the bone marrow of HLA haploidentical donors were transfected by recombinant adenovirus encoding CTLA4IgcDNA (AdCTLA4Ig) at a multiplicity of infection=50 for 72 hours. The expression rate and the location of CTLA4Ig in the transfected cels were detected by fluorescence microscope after immunofluorescence staining. CTLA4Ig-modified bone marrow stromal cels (2×104, 4×104and 8×104) were respectively co-cultured with 105 T cels from the peripheral blood of HLA haploidentical donors and 105 peripheral blood mononuclear cels from recipients. The proliferative inhibition rate was determined by MTT assay, and the level of interleukin-2 in the supernatant was detected by ELISA. The bone marrow mononuclear cels (1×105/wel) were co-cultured with CTLA4Ig-modified bone marrow stromal cel layers constructed in 6-wel plates. The number of bone marrow mononuclear cels and colony-forming unit-granulocyte macrophages were calculated after 5-day culture. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The expression rate of CTLA4Ig at the multiplicity of infection=50 was as high as 85%, and the immunofluorescence signals of CTLA4Ig were distributed unevenly in the cytoplasm. The inhibition rates of 2×104, 4×104, and 8×104 CTLA4Ig-modified bone marrow stromal cels on proliferation of T cels were higher than that of untransfected cels. The levels of interluekin-2 in the corresponding cel groups were significantly lower than that in the untransfected cels (P < 0.05). At 5 days of culture, there was no significant difference in the number of bone marrow mononuclear cels and colony-forming unit-granulocyte macrophages between the transfected and untransfected cel groups (P > 0.05). These findings indicate that CTLA4Ig-modified bone marrow stromal cels mediated by adenovirus can induce immune tolerance of T-lymphocyte from HLA haploidentical donors in vitro.

Objective To investigate the changes of brain function in moderate and high myopia patients using fractional amplitude of low frequency fluctuation (fALFF),and discuss the correlation between brain function changes and clinical data of patients with myopia.Methods Totally 21 moderate and high myopia patients (myopia group),and 21 healthy volunteers (normal control group) who were matched with myopia patients in age and gender,were selected to take rs-fMRI examination.The difference of fALFF of brain functional activity in patients with myopia and normal controls was compared,and the correlation between the changes of fALFF and clinical data of patients with myopia was analyzed,Results Compared with normal control group,the fALFF values of myopia group in the region of the left inferior frontal gyrus,putamen and right inferior frontal gyrus,putamen and insula were significantly lower (all P < 0.05,AlphaSim corrected).However,in bilateral cingulate gyrus,bilateral anterior cingulate gyrus,left postcentral gyrus,left superior parietal lobule and region,fALFF values were increased (all P < 0.05,AlphaSim corrected).Conclusion Patients with myopia are accompanied by abnormal neuronal activity in many brain areas,which may reflect the dysfunction of language understanding and attention control in myopic patients.

Objective To evaluate the association between the polymorphisms of BT-H4 gene and the risk of breast cancer, a case-control study was conducted in the population of Heilongjiang province, China. Methods We genotyped the single nucleotide polymorphisms of rs10754339, rs10801935 and rs3738414 in B7-H4 gene by PCR-RFLP in a Chinese population consisting of 287 breast cancer cases and 305 controls matched for age and sex, tagged all common haplotypes (frequency ≥ 1%), and analyzed the differences between patients and normal controls. Results Our data indicated that in rs10754339, the frequencies of G allele, AA genotype and AG genotype were significantly different between patients and controls (P=0.030, OR 1.359, 95 % CI 1.030-1.794; P=0.018, OR 0.671, 95 % CI 0.482-0.935; P=0.029, OR 1.455, 95 % CI 1.038-2.038, respectively). In rs3738414, the frequencies of A allele, GG genotype and AG genotype were significantly different between patients and controls (P=0.0008, OR 0.604, 95 % CI 0.455-0.803; P=0.001, OR 1.804, 95 % CI 1.289-2.253; P=0.005, OR 0.612, 95 % CI 0.435-0.862). The frequencies of AAA haplotype and GAG haplotype were significantly different between patients and controls (P=0.0015, OR 0.614, 95 % CI 0.456-0.828; P=0.0003, OR 1.954, 95 % CI 1.363-2.803). Conclusion Polymorphisms of B7-H4 gene appear to be associated with breast cancer in the population of Heilongjiang province, China.
