Objective To explore the value of enzyme‐linked immunospot(ELISPOT ) assay in the diagnosis of acquired immu‐nodeficiency syndrome(AIDS) patients with Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection .Methods 42 hospitalized AIDS patients with Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection and 60 non‐tuberculosis hospitalized patients with diseases of respiratory system in the same period were recruited as observation group and control group ,respectively .ELISPOT assay ,tuberculosis antibody(TBAb) test and tuberculin skin test(TST) were performed for all the patients ,respectively .The sensitivity ,specificity and accuracy of the 3 meth‐ods were comparatively analyzed .Results The sensitivity ,specificity and accuracy of ELISPOT were 92 .9% ,93 .3% and 93 .1% . These of TBAb were 54 .8% ,71 .7% and 64 .7% ,and of TST were 47 .6% ,53 .3% and 51 .0% ,respectively .There were significant differences among three methods in sensitivity ,specificity and accuracy(P<0 .05) .The sensitivity ,specificity and accuracy of ELIS‐POT were the highest in the 3 methods(P<0 .05) .There were no significant differences between TBAb test and TST in sensitivi‐ty ,specificity and accuracy(P>0 .05) .Conclusion ELISPOT assay has relatively high diagnostic value in AIDS patients with My‐cobacterium tuberculosis infection .

Objective To investigate the effect of steroid receptor coactivator family in initiation, development, treatment and prognosis of breast cancer. Methods The literatures in recent years which have related to the effect of steroid receptor coactivators in breast cancer are reviewed. Results Steroid receptor coactivators are essential for several kinds of steroid hormones binding to steroid receptors, so they are important accessory factors that induce the initiation, development and recurrence of breast cancer, and predictive factors that estimate the prognosis of breast cancer. Conclusion Inhibition of the expression and signaling pathway of steroid receptor coactivators may be effective for breast cancer prevention and treatment.

Objective To examine the effect of PDGF-αreceptor on proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) in rabbits. Methods Different concentrations of PDGFR-α ASODN were mixed with lip 2000, and the final proportion of PDGFR-α ASODN/lip2000 complex was 1∶1、1∶2.5 and 1∶5 respectively. All the complexes were incubated with cultured human retinal pigment epithelium for 24 hours before transfection. The rabbits were divided into group A (RPE cells)、group B and C (1.0、2.0 μmol/L PDGFR-αASODN lipofectin transfection of RPE cells) with 8 eyes each. The level of PVR were estimated by indirect ophthalmoscope examination; the fundus changes were estimated by histopathology; and the expression of PDGFA was detected by immunohistochemistry. Results The highest transduction efficiency was PDGFR-α ASODN/ lip2000 ratio to 1∶2.5. The degree of proliferative vitreoretinopath , the fundus changes and the density of PDGFA in group B and group C were significantly lower than that in group A, while group C more lower than group B. Conclusion PDGF-αreceptor antisense oligonucleotides can inhibit the development of experimental proliferative vitreoretinopathy.

There are many kinds of the scaffolds of tissue engineered cartilage, including collagen, polylactic acid hybrid material, chitosan and decellular extracellular matrix. They all have biocompatibility, safety and stable physicochemical property, which indicate good application value in the field of tissue engineering. Moreover, the composite scaffolds are superior to simple scaffold. It is potential scaffold materials that developing into composite materials, biomimetic materials, modified natural materials, intelligent material and nano-technological materials.

Objective To study the characteristics of working memory impairment in patients with lacunar cerebral infarctions(LCI).Methods 42 patients proved by clinics were chosen,and divided into two groups:multiple and single LCI groups,versus left,right and double side infarction groups.Their working memory status were evaluated and compared with Digit Ordering Test,Corsi block task,House Visual Span Test and Stroop Digit Counting Test.All scores were analyzed statistically.Results(1)All scores of the four types of Tests in multiple LCI group were significantly lower than those in single group(P0.05).Conclusions Multiple LCI is closely related to working memory impairment.Left brain infarction may induce verbal working memory impairment,and right infarction may induce spatial working memory impairment,but object working memory impairment may related to double side of brain infarction.It suggested that in the physiological structure,different components of working memory regions had dissymmetrical effect in two sides of brain.

Objective To compare the clinical curative effect of partial tubeless and traditional percutaneous nephrolithotomy ( PCNL) in treatment of upper urinary calculus and to evaluate the clinical feasibility and value. Methods 206 patients with upper urinary calculus were enrolled in a randomized clinical trial from May 2013 to May 2014 according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. These patients were randomized into the observation group (tubeless PCNL group) and the control group (traditional PCNL group). The operation time,stone clearance rate,visual analogue scale (VAS) pain score,usage of analgesic drugs,hemoglobin decrease,blood transfusion,bleeding,fever, leakage of urine,postoperative hospital stay,hospitalization expenses and the time of patients return to normal life were compared. Results All the operations were successfully finished. There were no statistically significant difference in operation time,stone clearance rate,hemoglo-bin decrease,bleeding,blood transfusion and fever (P>0. 05),but the visual analogue scale (VAS) pain score,usage of analgesic drugs, leakage of urine,postoperative hospital stay,hospitalization expenses and the time of patients return to normal life of the observation group were evidently lower than those of the control group (P<0. 05). Conclusion As partial tubeless PCNL have a great advantage on ease post-operative pain,shorten postoperative hospital stay,reduce hospitalization expenses and accelerate patients return to normal life,it is safe and effective for the treatment of upper urinary calculus,and it should be popularized and applied.
