Objective To investigate the effect of recombinant plasmid pshRNA-DNMT3b on expression of DNMT3b mRNA and protein and on the proliferation of bladder cancer T24 cells,and research the function of DNMT3b in the process of bladder tumor formation.Methods There were three groups in this study,which are blank controller,HK and pshRNA-DNMT3b(24h,48h,72h),respectively.T24 cells were cultured routinely and transfected by the recombinant plasmids with lipfectamine 2000.The cells were detected by methods of RT-PCR,western blot and MTT.The varying level of DNMT3b mRNA and expression protein,and the conditions of cellular survival rate were observed.Results The recombinant plasmids were successfully transfected into T24 cell lines.The grey valHe of RT-PCR elctrophoretogram was analyzed by the software of Gel-pro analyzer,the rate of blank controller,HK and pshRNA-DNMT3b(24h,48h,72h),was (99.56±1.24)%,(99.12±1.35)%,(75.77±1.42)%,(44.69±1.05)%and(20.52±0.89)%,respectively.The analytical resuit of western blot image was(99.43±1.28)%,(98.90±1.31)%,(67.83±1.02)%,(43.43±1.05)%and(21.92±0.89)%.There was no statistically difference in survival between blank control and HK(P>0.05).The group of pshRNA-DNMT3b and other two groups had statistical difference only at the 72th hour and the cell inhibitory growth rate only increase 0.45%.Conclusions The recombinant ptasmid pshRNA-DNMT3b can inhibit the expression of mRNA and protein of DNMT3b effectively.However,it has slight function on inhibiting cell proliferation.

Purpose To explore the diagnostic value of double exponential model for pelvic lesions using 3.0T MRI for the diagnosis of pelvic lesion. Materials and Methods Fifty patients with pelvic lesions (30 benign cases and 20 malignant cases) underwent MR750-diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) scans, with b values of 0, 50, 300, 600, 800 and 1200 s/mm2, Functool-MADC software was used on AW 451 workstations for data processing, Slow ADC value, Fast ADC value, Standard ADC value, Fraction of fast ADC value were recorded and compared between benign and malignant lesions, and Standard ADC images were fused with axial T2 fat-suppressed images. Results Slow ADC values [(1.83±0.86)×10-3 mm2/s] and Standard ADC values [(1.79±0.78)×10-3 mm2/s] of benign lesions were larger than those of the malignant lesions [Slow ADC values:(1.05±0.31)×10-3 mm2/s;Standard ADC values:(1.13±0.39)×10-3 mm2/s] (t=3.90, 3.51;P<0.01), and the difference of Slow ADC value was largest between benign and malignant lesions. Slow ADC values of both benign and malignant lesions were significantly less than the Fast ADC values [benign:Slow ADC value=(1.83±0.86)×10-3 mm2/s, Fast ADC value=(16.95±8.63)×10-3 mm2/s; malignant: Slow ADC value=(1.05±0.31)×10-3 mm2/s, Fast ADC value=(15.12±9.90)×10-3 mm2/s] (t=-10.40,-6.29;P<0.01). Conclusion Double exponential decay model is capable of differentiating benign and malignant pelvic tumors, thus is of great significance for clinical preoperative diagnosis.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the possibility and anatomy landmark of the frontal beak approach of endoscopic frontal sinusotomy to the frontal sinus lesions.
METHOD:
(1)Twenty cases of frozen cadaveric head underwent spiral computed tomography scans. Then data were transferred into the Mimics image workstation to reorganize CT images in the coronal, sagittal, and axial planes. The anatomic parameters related to surgical approach points were measured, such as the distance between vertical plate of the middle turbinate and lamina papyracea and the thickness of the frontal beak. (2) 3D visual model of the frontal cell and the drainage way of the frontal sinus was produced with the application of Sinuses Trachea I software. (3)The endoscopic frontal sinus surgery were performed on 20 cases of subjects (objects)to find out the anatomy landmarks of the frontal beak approach, measure the parameters such as the distance between middle turbinate and lamina papyracea, and evaluate the potential surgical complications during operation.
RESULT:
(1)The frontal beak is a white bony arcs located at the attachment point of middle turbinate front inserted to the skull base. Its position was relatively constant, before frontal sinus above. (2)The distance between the middle turbinate vertical plate and lamina papyracea was (7. 61 ± 1. 34) mm. The thickness of the frontal beak in surgical approach was (3. 27 ± 0. 91) mm. (3) 3D visual structure of the frontal sinus and its ventilation pathway: the shape of unilateral frontal sinus looked like the cone, which was transited by the drainage pathway of the frontal sinus. The front part of the frontal sinus ostium is surrounded by the frontal beak. The upper part the frontal beak connected to the floor of the frontal sinus. (4) Frontal beak can be used as an landmark of frontal beak approach in the endoscopic frontal sinus surgery. But the lateral view of frontal sinus still was limited in the operation.
CONCLUSION
The endoscopic frontal sinus surgery with the approach of the frontal beak is easy to operate and learn. In this area between the double "L", the operation is safe.

5.New insight into application and function of air or gas for vitreoretinal surgery
Chinese Journal of Ocular Fundus Diseases 2022;38(4):257-260
At present, tamponade agent which being used in retinal surgery is mainly sterile air, gas and silicone oil. Sterile air is mostly used in the treatment of simple retinal detachment. Gas or silicone oil as tamponade is greatly applied for complicated retinal detachment. In recent years, with the application of micro-invasive vitrectomy under a wide-angle viewing system and perioperative anti-vascular endothelial growth factor drugs, application of intraocular filling materials also has changed. The application of silicone oil is significantly reduced. Percentage rate of gas as tamponade for retinal detachment is reduced. The application of sterile air as tamponade is rising. With selecting indication carefully and picking up the suitable air or gas, doctor will reduce the workload. It will also reduce the social burden and benefit patients.
