Objective To investigate the trend of the national Kaschin-Beck disease condition, and provide the scientific basis for the government to make preventing strategy. Methods The data were collected from national surveillance on Kaschin-Beck disease(KBD) condition from 2000 to 2007 by restrospective method. The national X-ray detective rates and KBD condition in the eastern and western areas of China were analyzed. Results Monitoring data were collected from 189 monitoring points in 14 provinces of China, and 21 287 X-ray films were photographed of right hands of children from 2000 to 2007. X-ray detective rate was decreased significantly of national KBD from 2000 to 2007. The condition in the west of China is slightly more serious than the eastern areas, but the average of X-ray detective rate was also decreased from 21.75% to 7.30%. National condition is basically controlled. X-ray detective rate had been controlled below 5%, exept for Qinghai, Tibet and Inner Mongolia and so on. Conclusions Ninty percent of the wards have reached the controlled level according to the X diagnosis standard. In terms of the severity of the disease, most of the wards are occupied by patients with slight condition, 10% ward with moderate condition, less than 1% ward with serious condition.

Objective: To examine the effect of SiO2 exposure on the airway surface microenvironment and NIMA-related kinase 7 (NEK7)/nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor containing pyrin domain 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome in rats. Methods: Twenty-four specific pathogen-free male rats of the SD strain were randomly divided into the control group and the model group, of 12 rats in each group. Rats in the model group were given SiO2 suspensions through disposable tracheal intubation perfusion to model silicosis in rats, while rats in the control group was perfused with the same amount of physiological saline. The pH value and glucose level were measured in the rat bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) 14 and 28 days after modeling. Lung tissues were stained with HE and Masson and the distribution of inflammatory cells and the deposition of pulmonary interstitial collagens were observed in lung tissues under a light microscope. The expression of transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1), collagen type Ⅰ(ColⅠ), collagen type Ⅲ (Col Ⅲ), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), NLRP3, N-terminal domain of Gasdermin D (GSDMD-NT), caspase-1, and NEK7 was quantified in lung specimens using immunohistochemistry. Results: Lower pH values were measured in rat BALF in the model group than in the control group 14 [(6.38±0.05) vs. (6.68±0.08), P<0.05] and 28 days after modeling [(6.63±0.14) vs. (6.86±0.05), P<0.05], while higher glucose levels were seen in the model group than in the control group 14 [(0.39±0.06) vs. (0.31±0.04) mg/dL, P<0.05] and 28 days after modeling [(0.39±0.08) vs. (0.31±0.06) mg/dL, P<0.05]. HE and Masson staining showed mild to moderate alveolitis and pulmonary fibrosis in rats 14 days post-exposure to SiO2, and showed moderate to severe alveolitis and pulmonary fibrosis 28 days post-exposure. Immunohistochemistry detected higher TGF-β1, ColⅠ, Col Ⅲ, IL-1β, NLRP3, GSDMD-NT, caspase-1 and NEK7 expression in rat lung tissues in the model group than in the control group (all P<0.05). Conclusions SiO2 exposure may cause changes in rat airway surface microenvironment, including BALF acidification and elevated glucose. Pyroptosis induced by activation of NEK7-associated NLRP3 inflammasome may be an important mechanism of pulmonary fibrosis caused by silicosis.

Objective To investigate the value of detecting HEART score and HEARTS3 score in risk stratification and prognosis of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in patients with non-ST segment elevation chest pain in emergency department (ED).Methods Clinical data of case-control retrospective study of 775 patients with non-ST segment elevation chest pain in ED were collected from July 2011 to March 2015.The patients were estimated and risk stratification was made with HEART score and HEARTS3 score.After follow-up visiting by telephone for 30 days,outcomes were found to be ACS and myocardial infarction (MI).And the patients were categorized with score into low,intermediate and high risk groups.The correlation between the ACS and risk score in three groups was analyzed.Comparison of capability of performance in predicting 30-day ACS between the HEART score and HEARTS3 risk score.Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS13.0.Enumeration variables were expressed as percentage.For comparison of predictive value of the two sets of scores,area under the receiver operating curve (auROC) was calculated and compared by Z test.Results There were 92 cases with 30-day ACS.The rate of ACS had a trend of increase with increase in HEART score and HEARTS3 score.The patients with higher scores of HEART and HEARTS3,higher incidence of ACS in 30 days.Especially,the high-risk patients with score≥7 of HEART score and≥8 of HEARTS3 score had higher rate of ACS.And there was significant difference in predicting high-risk patients between two sets of scoring (P ＜ 0.05).The HEARTS3 score outperformed the HEART score as determined by comparison of areas under the ROC curve for MI (0.952 vs 0.813;P =0.028),30-day ACS (0.913 vs.0.815;P =0.034).Conclusions HEART score and HEARTS3 score both can be used to evaluate and perform risk stratification for non-ST segment elevation chest pain patients in ED.But HEARTS3 score can more precisely stratify high-risk patients with chest pain for 30-day ACS.

Objective:To investigate the clinic-cytology and histopathology of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) in breasts. Mothods:Twelve cases of NHL of the breast were studied by fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAC), histopathology and immunohistochemistry, and whose clinical data were analysed at the same time. Results:In 12 cases of NHL, 3 cases were T-cell NHL and 9 cases were B-cell NHL. Cytologically, the T-cell NHL cells were mostly arranging in diffuse patterns. The tumor cells were oval and pleomorphism. Some of them had distorted nucleus and thin nuclear envelope.The nucleus showed irregular course chromatin and visible nueleoic. Histopathologically, some of the tumor cells distributed around the blood vessels, and there was an obvious phenomenon of “blood-vessel-closing”. B-cell lymphoma cells were arranginy in diffuse pattern, and showed round and ellipse in shape with a clot and course granular chromatin and visible nueleoic and karyoknesis. Lymphoepithelia lesions were seen. Immunohistochemistry showed that CD3, CD43, and CD 45RO in T-cells NHL were positive.CD20, CD74 and CD79a in B-cells NHL were negative. CK, EMA, ER and PR in NHL were all negative. Conclusion:NHL of breast is extremely rare, and its definite diagnosis depends on various examination methods.

?AlM: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of posterior continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis ( PCCC ) combined with anterior vitrectomy in preventing posterior capsule opacification of congenital cataract surgery.
?METHODS:Postoperative clinical follow-up data of 82 cases ( 87 eyes ) with congenital cataract treated in Eye Center of our hospital from January 2011 to August 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into the surgical control group ( 38 cases, 40 eyes, recieved phacoemulsification + PCCC ) and the study group ( 44 cases, 47 eyes, accepted phacoemulsification+ PCCC + anterior vitrectomy). The incidence of central optic axis opaque and postoperative visual acuity distribution were recorded at 1a follow - up. lntraoperative and postoperative complications were observed.
?RESULTS:The rate of central optic axis opaque grade 0 in control group was 37. 5%, compared to 76. 6% in study groups. The opacity distribution ratio of grade 1,2,3 and 4 in study group were lower than that of control group, and the central optic axis opacity distribution ratio in study group was significantly better than that of control group (P<0. 05). The 19 eyes(47. 5%) of visual acuity testing ≤0. 5 in control group , was higher than the 7 eyes(14. 89%) of that in the study group, The 21 eyes (52. 5%) of visual acuity testing >0. 5 in control group was lower than the 40 eyes ( 85. 11%) of that in study group. The visual acuity between two groups has statistical significance difference after 1a follow-up ( P<0. 05 ) , and the visual acuity in study group was significantly better than that in the control group. The postoperative intraocular pressure at 1mo and 1a follow-up was lower than before operation in two groups ( P<0. 05), but there was no significant difference between two groups in intraocular pressure (P<0. 05).
?CONCLUSlON: Combination of phacoemulsification, PCCC and anterior vitrectomy presents reliable clinical effects on postoperative central optic axis opacity distribution ratio and visual acuity, and it should be adopted to prevent the occurrence of posterior capsule opacification.

Objective To observe changes of luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and testosterone (T) in umbilical vein blood between male and female neonates, and assess the effect of serum LH, FSH and T on fetal growth.Methods Umbilical vein blood was obtained from 130 neonates (64 females and 66 males) in the second hospital of changshu city. According to birth weight, 130 neonates were divided into 3 groups: macrosomia (n=28), intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) (n=31) and normal neonates (n=71). The serum levels of LH, FSH and T were measured by radioimmunoassay.Results 1.The levels of LH, FSH and T in umbilical vein blood were significantly higher in male neonates than those in females (P

Objective: To investigate the advantage of ThinPrep cytological test in tumor diagnosis by fine needle aspiration cytology. Methods: Using fine needle aspiration for smears,some of smears were made in conventional smears,the remains aspirating needles were washed with a transport washing solution.ThinPrep slides were made using the ThinPrep Processor. Results: In 84 cases FNA samples,49 cases were breast,29 cases were lymph node and 6 cases were others.Comparing with conventionally prepared specimens,ThinPrep processed samples showed the advantage in sensitivity or specificity.The lack of cellular debris,blood and exudates improve the ability to detect cellular abnormalities and speed up the time required for screening in ThinPrep processed samples.Rapid cell transfer from the sampling device to the transporing fluid containing the fixative ensure preservation of cell details with minimal artifactual changes. Conclusion: The use of Thinprep and by combination of FNAC and immunocytochemistry cytopathological diagnosis can be improved significantly.
