Objective Implement random sample from a simulation population,to evaluate the The impact of samplesize and sample-process on several usual importance evaluate methods,observe the stability of those methods.Methods This study introduced existed importance methods,using PROC SURVEYSELECT procedure to sample a fixed population for 1000 times,generating 1000 same size sample,to evaluate the stability of relative importance methods.We sampled the population to generate datasets with different sample size to observe impact of sample-size on those methods.Results The sum of squared correlation coefficients' estimator is bigger than model R-square,squared standardized regression coefficients' sum is smaller.In contrary,sum of the Product Measure,Relative Weight and Dominance Analysis are extremely close to model R-square.When the sample size small than 1000,the estimator have obviously variation,but the variation decreased when the sample size rise up.Conclusion The dominance analysis has best stability,also has the best match of model R2 in those methods.

Objectives To investigate the immune effect of hepatitis B vaccine under the influence of congenital human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection. Methods The newborn rat model of congenital HCMV infection was developed by intra-peritoneally inoculating pregnant rat with HCMV suspension,while the offsprings of healthy rats were used as the control group. Offspring rats in all groups were inoculated with hepatitis B vaccine in the postnatal 1st, 3rd and 5th week and were taken blood from hearts separately in 3rd, 5th, 7th and 11th week. Antibody to Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAb) titer in all groups was de-tected by ELISA method. Results The serum HBsAb titer in both groups all showed a trend of increasing gradually with added vaccinating times and decreased differently with time extending after completed vaccinations. Differences among changes of HBsAb titer along with prolonged time in each group were all statistically significant (P<0.001). At all time points (3rd, 5th, 7th, 11th week), the titer of serum HBsAb in congenital HCMV infection group was lower than that in the control group respectively, and there were statistically significant differences (P<0.01). Conclusions Congenital HCMV infection could weaken the im-mune effect of hepatitis B vaccine.

Objective To construct a new replicating adenovirus vector CNHK600-p53 carrying anti-tumor gene p53 and investigate its effect on hepatocarcinoma cell line PLC/PRF5. Methods The methylthiazolyl tetrazolium assay (MTT) was used to observe the killing effect of Fluorouracil, Mitomycin and Epirubicin alone or in combination with adenovirus CNHK600-p53 on PLC/PRF5. Results When 5-Fu at concentration of 400?g/ml, the inhibition rate was (65?4. 2) % ; with MMC at 1?g/ml, the rate was (41?1.9)%; and it was (65?1.8)% when EPI at concentration of 10?g/ml. With PLC/PRF5 infected by adenovirus CNHK600-p53 ( MOI = 0. 625) , the inhibition rate was significantly increased to (89?5. 3)%,(60?2.3)% and (75?1.5)% respectively; When MOI was 0.3125, 0.625, 1.25, the inhibition rate in CNHK600-p53 group and Ad-p53 group was (27?2. 5)% , (30?3. 7)% , (61?4. 3)% and(4?2.7)%, (5?3.5)%, (16?4.5)% respectively. Conclusion For hepatocarcinoma cell line PLC/PRF5 the effect of CNHK600-p53 is stronger than Ad-p53.

A group of 19 referred hypertensive patients were diagnosed to have primary aldosteronism(PA) with inconclusive computed tomography scan results.Adrenal vein sarmpling (AVS) was performed in all patients.AVS was successful in 16 cases but failed in 3 cases.According to the results of AVS and postoperative pathology,8 cases were diagnosed as aldosterone-producing adenoma (APA) and unilateral adrenal hyperplasia (UAH),and the other 8 cases were diagnosed as idiopathic hyperaldosteronism (IHA).In conclusion,AVS is one of the most crucial methods in typing diagnosis of PA.

Objective: To investigate the risk factors of ventricular arrhythmias in patients with Brugada syndrome. Methods: Clinical data of 60 Brugada syndrome patients admitted in the department of cardiology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from March 2003 to December 2016 were collected and retrospectively analyzed. The age at diagnosis was (43.2±13.1) years (0.6-83.0 years), 98.3% were males (n=59), and the patients were followed up to (92±41) months (12-169 months). The 12-lead surface electrocardiogram (ECG) recorded at the time of diagnosis and showing the highest type 1 ST elevation, either spontaneously or after provocative drug test, was used for the analysis. Patients were divided into ventricular arrhythmia (VA, n=12) group and non-ventricular arrhythmia (non-VA, n=48) group depending on the presence or absence of clinical VA event. The demographic data and ECG data of the 2 groups were compared, and the independent risk factors of VA events were analyzed by stepwise logistic regression. Results: Incidence of family history of sudden death (7/12 vs. 22.9% (11/48)) and percentage of type 1 ST elevation in the peripheral ECG leads (6/12 vs. 16.67% (8/48)) were significantly higher in VA group than in non-VA group (both P<0.05). Max Tpeak-Tend (Max-Tpe) interval ((144±53)ms vs. (110±16)ms) and dispersion of Tpe ((74±50)ms vs. (43±17)ms) were significantly higher in VA group than in non-VA group (both P<0.05). The area under receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves for the Max-Tpe interval was 0.693 and Max-Tpe interval ≥140 ms was determined as an optimized cutoff point with increased risk of VA event, which had a sensitivity of 50.0%, a specificity of 98.0%, a positive predictive value of 85.7%, and a negative predictive value of 88.7% for predicting VA event. The ROC curves for the dispersion of Tpe was 0.775 and dispersion of Tpe ≥45 ms was determined as an optimized cutoff point for predicting VA event, which had a sensitivity of 91.7%, a specificity of 64.6%, a positive predictive value of 39.3%, and a negative predictive value of 96.9% for predicting VA event. In multivariate analysis, Max-Tpe interval ≥140 ms (OR=27.53, 95%CI 1.07-706.77, P=0.045) and family history of sudden death (OR=24.63, 95%CI 2.05-295.38, P=0.011) were found to be the independent risk factors of arrhythmic events. Conclusions Max-Tpe interval ≥140 ms and family history of sudden death are risk factors of VA event in included patients with Brugada syndrome.

Objective To evaluate effectiveness of prevention and treatment for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) for one year at community health-care service (CHS)centers. Methods A quasi-experiment design was used to evaluate effectiveness of community management for patients with COPD who visited and registered at Xiaokunshan and Xinbang CHS centers in Songjiang district of Shanghai in 2008, with COPD patients from Xiaokunshan community CHS center as management group and those from Xinbang as control. Measures for community management included training for local general practitioners in essential knowledge of COPD prevention and treatment, allocation of necessary drugs for COPD treatment, and health education for COPD patients and their family members. No special measures were taken for control group except routine treatment. Results A total of 132 patients were diagnosed as COPD according to their pulmonary function on 2008, 61 at Xiaokunshan and 71 at Xinbang CHS canters.One hundred and two patients, 47 at Xiaokunshan and 55 at Xinbang, finished one-year follow-up. Five patients from Xiaokunshan who were smokers at their first visits and three of them quitted smoking after oneyear management. Meanwhile, none of nine smoked patients from Xinbang quitted smoking in the same period. There was no statistically significant difference in symptom scores, pulmonary function, and forced expiratory volume at the first second (FEV1) between patients in the two groups during one-year follow-up.Average score of quality of life in patients at Xiaokunshan dropped to 39. 12 after one-year management from 46. 96 at their first visits, and that in patients at Xinbang increased to 62. 11 from 56. 55 (P＜0.01).Average six-minute walking distance (6-MWD) in patients at Xiaokunshan reduced to 354. 26 meters after one-year management from 361.66 meters at their first visits, meanwhile that in patients at Xinbang reduced to 351.18 meters from 398.07 meters (P =0. 008). Scores of functional dyspnea in patients at Xiaokunshan fell to 0.34 from 0.40 at their first visit, meanwhile that in patients at Xinbang increased to 1.00 from 0.95(P =0.038). During the one-year follow-up, 13 patients at Xiaokunshan and 53 at Xinbang visited emergency departments for treatment, and four at Xiaokunshan were hospitalized and none died, and five at Xinbang were hospitalized due to acute exacerbation of COPD and four of them died. Conclusions The study suggests that strengthening prevention and treatment for COPD patients at community level by general practitioners, patients themselves and their family members can improve their quality of life, reduce emergency visits and hospitalization, alleviate dyspnea symptoms and delay the decline of 6MWD.

OBJECTIVETo study the injection of NKG5SV gene to inhibit growth and metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

METHODSNKG5SV gene was inserted into retroviral vector pLXSN by normal methods. LacZ gene was used as control. LCI-D20 tumor together with saline, pLXSN-LacZ DNA or pLXSN-NKG5SV was subcutaneously inoculated to the nude mice. Tumor formation rate and tumor size were noted 35 days after inoculation.
