Objective To provide scientific basis for formulating National Standard Method for determination of 1,1_dichloroethene in water. Methods The method of head space gas chromatography was established in this assay. Results This method revealed good seperating efficiency and good linear relationship (r=0.9995,n=6). The detection limit was 0.2 ?g/L. The recovery rates of the blank drinking water samples to which was added standard solution containing 10, 20 and 40 ?g/L 1,1_dichloroethene respectively were 108%, 101% and 97% respectively, their related standard deviations were 4.6%, 4.2% and 2.8% respectively. Under the similar procedure as above, the recovery rates of the blank source water samples, added with standard solution containing 10, 20 and 40 ?g/L respectively, were 92%, 94% and 97%, their related standard deviations were 7.0%, 5.0% and 3.3% respectively. Conclusion This method was simple, convenient and effective. The levels of recovery rates and precision of this method all accorded with the requirements of the determination of 1,1_dichloroethene in water.

Objective To study the method for determination of pentachlorophenol(PCP) in water by headspace solid phase microextraction(SPME) gas chromatography. Methods Pentachlorophenol in water samples was extracted using optimized SPME technology, separated by SE30 chromatographic column and the content of pentachlorophenol in water was determined by electron capture detector (ECD) under the conditions: adjusting water samples to pH 2.0, to maintain an agitating equilibrium concentrations at 60 ℃ for 40 min, headspace absorption for 10 min using extraction head holding polyacrylic ester-coated microfiber (0.83 ?m in thickness), desorption at 280 ℃ for 3 min. Results The detection limit of the method was 0.13 ?g/L. The correlation coefficient r=0.999 was noticed in range of pentachlorophenol concentrations 0-12 ?g/L. When adding standard material of pentachlorophenol at concentrations of 1 ?g/L, 6 ?g/L, 10 ?g/L, the recovery rates were 88.9%-105.0%, 88.9%-102.8% and 98.0%-99.5% respectively and the RSD were 4.9%-8.4%, 3.1%-8.5% and 4.0%-5.4%(n=6)respectively. Conclusion The method was simple, sensitive, stable and without solvent pollution, which was an ideal method for determination of pentachlorophenol in water.

Objective To study the expression and clinical significance of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)and soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1(sVCAM-1)in children with Henoch-Schonlein purpura(HSP).Methods The levels of plasma VEGF and sVCAM-1 were measured in 58 children with HSP and 23 normal children by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA),respectively.Results The plasma levels of VEGF and sVCAM-1 of HSP children at acute stage were significantely higher than those of HSP children at the remission stage and those of the controls(Pa

Preeclampsia is a leading cause of maternal and infant morbidity and mortality. It is very important to explore the biomarkers for the early prediction of preeclampsia. Some peptides released from placenta, such as soluble Flt-1 and placenta growth factor (PlGF), have been revealed for definite prospects of application. Meanwhile, the recent advances in proteomics, metabolomics and microRNA shed light on searching of new biomarkers for preeclampsia prediction.

Objective To summarize our experience in prevention and treatment of stricture after esopageal burns in the past thirty years.Methods There were 168 cases in this series.Of them,158 cases underwent surgical management in this study.Modified intraluminal stenting was used in 34 cases, colon interposition without resection of strictured esophagus in 77 cases,gastric transposion with resection of the stricture in 27,repair of cervical stricture with platysma myocutaneous flap in 22,and miscellane- ous operation in 12.Eleven cases experienced operation twice or more at our department.Results Twenty-nine cases recovered after treatment with intraluminal stenting,and 5 re-experienced stricture after stent removal.One of the 5 cases with failed stent responded to bougienage,and the remaining 4 cases re- quired esophageal reconstruction later.Of the 77 colon interpositions,5 cases died postoperatively,and complications of cervical anastomotic fistula occurred in 14 cases,anastomotic stenosis in 4,and abdomi- nal incision dehiscence in 2 cases.In the 27 cases with gastric transpositions,postoperative complications of anastomotic stricture occurred in 2 cases and empyema in 1 patient.There was a cervical leak in 3 ca- ses of the 22 cases treated with the repair of cervical esopageal or anastomotic stricture with a platysma myocutaneous flap.In the 12 cases treated with miscellaneous operation,one died of intestinal obstruc- tion.All the survivors had regular diet after discharge.Conclusions Intraluminal stenting can prevent the formation of caustic esophageal stricture.The location of the cicatricial esophagus dictates whether to perform concomitant esophagectomy during esophageal reconstruction.Platysma myocutaneous flap repair is an excellent method for the treatment of severe cervical esophageal or anastomotic stricture.

With more and more attention and investment on acupuncture scientific researches, considerable outcomes and achievements has been acquired, but the shortcoming of low transformation rate of acupuncture research achievements is gradually exposed. Nowadays there is no related report on this problem, so based on achievement translational research in other areas and practical situation of acupuncture, the existing problems and solutions are analyzed. As a result, the existing problems include (1) the research content is mainly basic research and clinical research but less acupuncture device research, leading to limited transformation efficiency; (2) the evaluation system and transformation pattern are still needed to be perfect. The solutions are (1) to properly evaluate the research achievements of acupuncture, (2) to advocate the concept and method of translational medicine, (3) to reform the policy and system, and (4) to establish valid platforms covering research, outcomes and transformation.

BACKGROUND:As the multipotent differentiation potential, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells exert an important role in bone metabolism disorders, which is regulated by a variety of hormones and cytokines. Currently, the epigenetic regulatory mechanisms underlying osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells are unclear, and association between histone deacetylase (Hdac) and osteoporosis needs to be further explored. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the epigenetic mechanisms of bone formation by analyzing the expression of Hdac1, 3, 4 mRNA profile in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells isolated from ovariectomized mice. METHODS:A total 30 female healthy Kunming mice were randomly divided into sham group and ovariectomy group. After 7 days of adaptive feeding, mice in the ovariectomized group (n=15) were subject to bilateral ovariectomy;mice in sham group (n=15) were sham-operated. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:In the ovariectomy group, the trabecular bone of the femur was sparse or broken, the width of trabecular bone was narrowed, the trabecular separation was widened, and the trabecular bone volume was reduced. The level of Hdac3 mRNA was lower in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells from ovariectomized mice compared with controls, but there was no significance between Hdac1, Hdac4 mRNA expression of the two groups. These findings demonstrate that Hdac might play an important role in bone remodeling in the model of estrogen deficiency-induced osteoporosis.
