This study aimed to investigate viral infections and the prevalence of influenza-like illness (ILI) in Shijiazhuang, China, in 2011 and to provide a scientific basis for the diagnosis and control of respiratory tract infections. Throat swab specimens were collected from 483 cases of ILI who were outpatients in the influenza surveillance sentinel hospitals in Shijiazhuang between January and December 2011. All specimens were examined by multiplex RT-PCR for the following 15 respiratory tract viruses: adenovirus (ADV), human rhinovirus (HRV), human parainfluenza virus (PIV types 1-4), influenza virus A (FluA), influenza virus B (FluB), human enterovirus (HEV), respiratory syncytial virus (RSV-A and -B), human metapneumovirus (HMPV), human coronavirus (HCoV-229E/NL63 and -OC43/HKU1), and human bocavirus (HBoV). Among the 483 cases of ILI, 214 (44.31%) were positive for viruses, including ADV (8.7%), HEV (8.7%), RSV-A (8.07%), HRV (7.45%), FluA (5.38%), HCoV-OC43/ HKU1 (2.9%), PIV-3 (2.9%), HMPV (1.86%), PIV-1 (1.24%), HCoV-229E/NL63 (1.04%), PIV-2 (1.04%), HBoV (0.83%), and FluB (0.41%). Twenty-six (5.38%) of all cases were co-infected with two or more viruses, most commonly HEV/HRV with other viruses. Cases of viral infection were detected throughout the year, with peaks in January and February. ADV and HRV were detected throughout almost the whole year without obvious seasonality. HEV was detected between April and November, with a peak of prevalence in summer and autumn. FluA and FluB reached epidemic levels mainly in winter and spring. All cases of RSV were identified to be subtype A. PIV infection was mainly caused by PIV-3. The positive rate of HCoV-OC43/HKU1 infection was significantly higher than that of HCoV-229E/NL63. The leading five viruses that resulted in ILI Shijiazhuang in 2011 were HEV, ADV, RSV-A, HRV, and FluA, and these viruses have different epidemiological features.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of tissue polypeptide specific antigen(TPS),neuron-specific enolase(NSE),carcinoembryonie antigen(CEA)and CA125 in serum of small cell lung cancer(SCLC)patients and its significance in diagnosis and disease monitoring.Methods Serum leveh of TPS was detected using ELISA and serum levels of NSE,CA125 and CEA was detected using ECLin 27 1 SCLC patients.80 pulmonary benign disease patients and 224 normal healthy people.Diagnostic values of these tumor markers were analyzed by receiver operative characteristic(ROC)curve.Results The levels of TPS,NSE,CA125 and CEA iu the serum of SCLC group were signifieanfly higher than those in pulmonary benign disease and healthy group(Z＞1.90,P＜0.01).The levels of TPS and NSE in the serum of extensive stage small cell lung cancer(ESCLC)patients were significantly higher than those in limited stage small cell lung cancer(LSCLC)(Z=2.69,2.27,P=0.009,0.02 respectively).,The level of TPS and NSE showed statistical significance among SCLC patients with different prognosis after therapy(Z=4.06,3.11.P=0.001,0.007 respectively).The TPS+NSE showed the highest sensitivity of 86.7%,and the specificity,PPV and NPV were 75.0%,81.0% and 82.2%,respectively.Conclusions Serum levels of TPS,NSE,CA125 and CEA are useful for SCLC diagnosis.TPS+NSE shows the highest clinical values in SCLC diagnosis and prognosis.

Objective; To evaluate the influence of electrolyte's concentration at micro-arc oxide treatment on the bonding strength of titanium to porcelain. Methods; CP titanium specimens with size of 25 mm ×3 mm ×0. 5 mm were treated with micro-arc oxidation (MAO) in Na_2SiO_3 solution of three different concentrations. After ultra-low-fusing porcelain was applied, a three-point-flexure-test was used to evaluate the bonding strength of titanium to porcelain. The surface of the specimens was observed by SEM and EDS, as well as the interface between titanium and porcelain. Results; The bonding strength values between titanium treated with MAO and porcelain was significantly higher then the control groups, Croup 20 g/L has the highest bonding strength values. SEM/EDS suggested that a porous thin layer of oxide which contains Si element is created by MAO, and higher concentration of Na_2SiO_3 leads to more Si element in oxide. Conclusion; MAO treating can improve the bonding strength between titanium and ceramic. Electrolyte's concentration has an effect on the bond strength between titanium and porcelain.

Objective To discuss the effect of the teaching mode of technological pedagogical and content knowledge in biochemistry theory teaching. Methods 400 students in 8 classes of clinical medicine undergraduate in Grade 2013 were selected and randomly divided into 2 groups. The traditional teaching mode was applied in the control group of 198 students in 1-4 classes, while the technological pedagogical and content knowledge teaching mode was applied in the experimental group of 202 students in 5-8 classes. 385 students in 8 classes of clinical medical undergraduates in Grade 2014 were selected and randomly divided into 2 groups. The control group of 189 students in 1-4 classes adopted the traditional teaching mode, while the experimental group of 196 students in 5-8 classes adopted the technological pedagogical and content knowledge teaching mode, which used the micro-lesson and network platform as learning resource superior to the flipped classroom. Flipped classroom was divided into two major learning links:extracurricular self-study and class digestion. Through the network platform the micro-lesson was presented to the learners. Learners could make self-study according to their own specific circumstances and in the classroom many activities were increased such as the mutual cooperation between the students, the students' PPT teaching, the students' questions and the discussion, and the interaction between teachers and students, etc. The results of the examinations of the two terms students of the same profession and the questionnaire were analyzed. The related data were processed by SPSS 15.0, and the data between groups were compared by t test . Results The test scores analysis showed that the individual test scores in experimental group of Grade 2013 were [(17.94±2.02) vs. (12.28±4.17)], and the individual test scores in experimental group of Grade 2014 were [(18.21 ±1.78) vs. (12.45 ±5.13)], which were obviously higher than the control group, and there was statistical significance. The final exam scores in experimental group of Grade 2013 were [(78.28±11.18) vs. (68.65±12.51)], and the final exam scores in experimental group of Grade 2014 were [(81.73 ±9.12) vs. (74.41 ±11.87)], which were obviously higher than the control group, and there was statistical significance. The results of survey showed that the students thought the teaching mode aroused their study interests while 393 (93.7%), thought the teaching mode developed their self-study ability while 357 (89.7%), thought the teaching mode beneficial to cultivating their ability of solving the problems. Conclusion The teaching mode of technological pedagogical and content knowledge is of certain signifi-cance to break the plight of the traditional teaching, inspire the students interest in learning, improve the teaching quality of biochemistry, and make for the teachers' professional development.
