Skeletal muscle fibrosis is one of the main pathological changes of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD),which can affect the regeneration of muscle fiber and promote development of the disease.Its occurrence and development correlate closely with inflammatory cells,fibroblasts,myofibroblasts and cytokines.This article reviews the progress of skeletal muscle fibrosis of DMD

At nasopharyngeal carcinoma high-prevalence area,serum EB virus antibody screening is main method to improve the early diagnosis rate,then further improve the survival rate of patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma.But there is still wedknesses on nasopharyngeal carcinoma screening protocol.For example misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis are major problems.More intensive screening studies should been done to improved early diagnosis rate.

ObjectiveTo detect the mRNA expression levels of RORγt and Foxp3 genes in peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMCs) of children with atopic dermatitis(AD),and to explore their possible roles in the development of AD.MethodsSixty-three children with AD and 54 age-matched normal children were eligible for this study.Real-time fluorescence-based quantitative PCR was carried out to measure the mRNA expressions of RORγt and Foxp3 genes in PBMCs of these subjects.ResultsThe relative expression levels of Foxp3 and RORγt mRNA were significantly higher in children with AD compared with the normal controls (2.4060 ± 0.3355 vs.1.1852 ± 0.4189,t =17.50,P＜ 0.01; 6.9130 ± 0.2046 vs.2.7501 ± 0.2518,t =98.63,P ＜ 0.01 ).A statistical increase was observed in the level of RORγt mRNA in children with severe AD compared with children with mild and moderate AD(7.1203 ± 0.1056 vs.6.8046 ± 0.1731 and 6.8655 ± 0.3671,t =6.61,5.23,both P ＜ 0.01).No significant difference was noted in the expression of RORγt mRNA between children with mild and moderate AD,or in the Foxp3 mRNA expression among children with mild,moderate and severe AD.The severity of AD was positively correlated with the level of RORγt mRNA (r =0.62,P ＜ 0.01 ),but uncorrelated with the level of Foxp3 mRNA(r =0.04,P ＞ 0.05).ConclusionsThe high expressions of RORγt and Foxp3 genes may be involved in the pathogenesis of AD,and the severity of AD is positively correlated with the expression intensity of RORγt gene.

The paper expounds the practical significance of the humanistic quality of medical staff,and probes into the cultivation path according to the problems existing in the humanistic quality of medical staff,aimed at promoting the new health care reform orientation,in order to better practice the modern biological-psychological-social medical model,and to provide a useful reference for constructing harmonious doctor-patient relationship.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of genistein on cell proliferation and apoptosis in human laryngeal carcinoma cell line Hep-2. METHOD: Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay was used to measure the 50% inhibiting concentration (IC50) value of genistein; cell apoptosis rate and the distribution changes of cell cycle were determined with flow cytometry assay after treatment by gensitein. The morphological changes of tumor cells were evaluated by inverted phase contrast mircroscopy. RESULT: The IC50 of geniste responses to Hep-2 cells for 24 h was 23.64 µg/ml. The apoptotic rates of Hep-2 cells treated by genistein for 24 h were 22.40% ± 1. 65% (at 12 µg/ml genistein) and 30.64% ± 2.94% (at 24 µg/ml genistein) respectively, significantly statistical differences were foundbetween above threated groups and the control group (P < 0.05); the apoptotic rates of Hep-2 cells treated by genistein for 48 h were 30.55% ± 0.72%(at 12 µg/ml genistein) and 48.69% ± 1.06% (at 24 µg/ml genistein) respectively, significantly statistical differences were found between above threated groups and the control group (P < 0.05). When Hep-2 cells exposed to the same concentration of genistein for 24 h, 48 h respectively, the difference in apoptotic rate was statistically significant. CONCLUSION Genistein inhibited Hep-2 cells growth obviously, meanwhile it could induced apoptosis of Hep-2 cells, the apoptotic rate was increasing with the increase of the time and dose of genistein.

Objective To explore the C-type fixation in the application of the catheter tunnel peritoneal dialysis. Methods One hundred and twenty patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis were selected from January to December 2014 in Xijin Hospital and were randomly divided into the control group and experiment group. The peritoneal dialysis catheters of the control group were fixed vertically at the tube orifice with surgical tape, while the peritoneal dialysis catheters of the experiment group were fixed horizontally first and then placed with a shape ofC and fixed at the tube orifice with surgical tape. The two groups were compared in terms of tunnel score, infection, tube shedding and pulling-induced stimuli. Result The tunnel score and the cases of infection rate, tube shedding and pulling-induced stimuli in the experiment group were lower and fewer than those of the control group with statistical significance (all P <0.05). Conclusion The type C fixation of tube for peritoneal dialysis can effectively reduce the incidence of infections in patients with peritoneal dialysis tunnel, reduce pulling-induced stimuli, and improve comfort of the patients.

Objective: To design a upper computer software which can achieve data acquisition, display, motion control for sickbed-control test system. Methods: In Visual C++6.0 environment, take advantage of Advantech's development kit, and integrate multi-thread and dual-buffer technology to achieve. PC translate user's intentions into control commands, then sent commands to PCI1240, PCI1716 through the PCI interface, PCI1240 drive stepper motor to control the movement of the bed, while PCI1716 collect movement state information. Results: Movement can be stopped immediately by clicking the stop button even during the reciprocating motion, and solve screen flicker when drawing the real-time curves. The software has been test in bed-control system many times and achieved good results. Conclusions: This paper's method realized the sickbed's motion control, data acquisition, data storage and display, compared with the method that using single chip machine and general electromotor, our method makes bed movement more precise and smooth, more function are achieved, and the software has been successfully used in the sickbed-control system.

Acute pancreatitis( AP)is a common gastrointestinal emergency,which comprises mild acute pancreatitis ( MAP),moderately severe acute pancreatitis( MSAP)and severe acute pancreatitis( SAP). Most patients with MAP and MSAP present as a mild,self-limiting disease with low morbidity and mortality,however,patients who suffer from SAP will experience serious local and/or systemic complications associated with high mortality. Therefore,early assessment of disease severity is important for clinical management. Procalcitonin( PCT),a pro-peptide of calcitonin,is an inflammatory mediator that can be used to differentiate bacterial and non-bacterial infection. Recently,the effect of PCT on AP has attracted more and more attentions. This article reviewed the advances in studies on PCT and AP.

Sentinel lymph node biopsy has been proved to be the standard treatment for early breast cancer patients with negative axillary lymph node. The study related to the tracer has become one of the hottest topics in breast cancer research. At present, the biopsy is often performed using the tracer of isotope, blue dye or both of them. However, some deifciencies of the 2 tracers restrained their applications, which resulted that the rate of the procedure is limited to only about 60% of patients in developed countries and less than 5% of patients in China and other developing countries. In recent years, a variety of new tracers have emerged, such as indocyanine green, contrast-enhanced ultra-sound using microbubbles, superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles. In this article, we introduced the characteristics of these 3 substances and reviewed the related research on the new tracers. In conclusion, the new tracers are still in the preliminary stage of research, and further research is needed for clinical application.
