AIM: To study the effects of IL-6 and IL-1? on the blood polymorphonuclear-neutrophils(PMN) apoptosis postburn. METHODS: Wistar rats inflicted by 30% total body surface area (TBSA) Ⅲ degree scalding were employed as the model. PMN were isolated by density gradient centrifugation using Percoll-hypaque and labeled with TdT-mediated and dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) and analyzed by flow cytometric analysis. The intracellular caspase-3 activation and the serum levels of IL-6 and IL-1? were analyzed by fluorometric immunosorbent enzyme assay and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, respectively. RESULTS: The serum IL-6 levels (?g/L) in groups of 3, 6, 12, 24 and 48 h postburn (9 14?1 16, 12 49?1 14, 3 01?0 75, 1 41?0 28 and 1 56?0 43 in turn) and IL-1? (ng/L) in groups of 3, 6, 12 h postburn (90 08?8 39, 320 93?14 48 and 47 84?5 19) were much higher than IL-6 (0 24?0 07) and IL-1? (27 65?4 86) in control group ( P

Objective To study the effect of p38MAPK on the activity and c-myc protein expression in rat acetaldehyde-induced hepatic stellate cell(HSC),and to investigate the alcoholic liver fibrosis related mechanism.Methods The different concentrations of SB203580 as the p38 specific blocker was adopted to conduct the intervention on rat acetaldehyde-induced HSC.The cellular mor-phological change was observed by the microscope.The cell proliferation was detected by MTT,the cell cycle was analyzed by flow cytometry(FCM),and the expression of c-myc protein was examined by the SABC method.Results (1)after acetaldehyde stimula-tion,HSC was increased in size and proliferated rapidly,but with the added SB203580 concentration increase,the cellular prolifera-tion was slowed down,the cells size was diminished and the deformed cells were increased.(2)The proliferation of acetaldehyde-in-duced HSC was inhibited by different doses of SB203580,and the higher concentration has the more significant inhibiting effect.(3) With the SB203580 concentration increase,the cells at the phase G0 and G1 were increased,while the cells at the phase S were de-creased,at the same time the expression positive rate of c-myc protein was decreased.Conclusion Blocking p38MAPK pathway ac-tivity could inhibit the proliferation of acetaldehyde-induced HSC,which may be related to the down-regulation of C-myc protein ex-pression and blocking the DNA synthesis in cells entering from G0/G1 phase to S phase.

Objective To investigate features of maxillary morphology in unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP) with maxillary retrusion and the dissimilarities of retruded maxilla.Methods Craniofacial measurements were done in 32 UCLP adult patients with maxillary retrusion (GC), 24 adult patients in class Ⅲ (GⅢ), and 32 healthy adults (GN).The CT slice data was reconstructed into a 3D video model and measured by Mimics 16.01.Results The maxillary volume (GM) and the volume composed of maxilla and maxillary sinuses (GT) were significantly smaller (P<0.05) in GC.The anterior and posterior parts of the maxillary length (A1-P3M⊥CP and P3M-P6M⊥CP) and overall maxillary length(A1-P6M⊥CP)at the dental level were all significantly reduced (P<0.05).There was no significant difference of the distances of A1⊥CP between the GC and GⅢ groups, while the P3M-CP and P6M-CP in the GⅢ group were significantly shorter (all P<0.05).The anterior and overall maxillary length at the dental level (A1-P3M⊥CP and A1-P6M⊥CP) in the GC group was significantly smaller than that in the GⅢ group (all P<0.05).Conclusions The decreased prominence of maxillary complex could be caused by the shortened maxillary length in UCLP patients;the posterior position of the maxilla is more obvious than that of GC group in class Ⅲ patients.

Objective:This study aims to examine the clinicopathological features, diagnosis, and treatment of pulmonary margin-al zone B-cell lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (PMZL-MALT). Methods:The clinicopathological features and immu-nohistochemical staining of CD20, CD79a, CD5, CD10, CD23, CyclinD1, and Ki-67 in seven patients with PMZL-MALT were ana-lyzed. Results:These patients, with a median age of 58 years, included three males and four females. Most of the patients suffered from cough, anhelation, and irregular fever. No specific imaging manifestation was observed. Tumor cells were positive for CD19 and CD20 but negative for CD5, CD10, and CyclinD1. The positive rate of Ki-67 was low. Conclusion:PMZL-MALT cases are easily misdiag-nosed because of the absence of specific clinical characteristics and X-ray features. Final diagnosis depends on pathological examina-tions.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of Liriope platyphylla total saponin (LPTS) on learning, memory, neuromediators and metabolites in aging mice induced by D-galactose. METHODS: Ninety Kunming mice were randomly divided into nine groups: normal saline (NS)-treated group, untreated group, high- (100 mg/kg), medium- (50 mg/kg) and low-dose (10 mg/kg) LPTS-treated groups, Shuxuening-treated group, jiaogulanosidi-treated group, flunarizine-treated group and vitamin E-treated group. The Kunming mice in the NS-treated group were administered with NS by intraperitoneal injection, while the aging mice in the other eight groups were administered with D-galactose by intraperitoneal injection. At the same time, the aging mice in different groups were fed with corresponding drugs for 42 days, and the aging items of the mice in different groups were measured, respectively. RESULTS: LPTS could improve the memory of aging mice induced by D-galactose, promote its body weight, and increase the thymus and spleen indexes of the aging mice. LPTS could decrease the levels of MDA and lipofuscin, inhibit MAO activity and increase SOD activity and GSH-Px level. CONCLUSION: LPTS may improve the ability of learning and memory and delay aging.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) plus full-field digital mammography (FFDM) in benign and malignant breast disease.Methods The prospective study enrolled 46 consenting women with a clinical suspicious of breast lesion confirmed by pathology. All the patients underwent DBT, FFDM and dedicated breast magnetic resonance image (DB-MRI) examinations before surgery or biopsy. To observe the manifestation of breast disease in different examinations according to breast imaging reporting and data system (BI-RADS), and to evaluate the visibility grade of disease between DBT plus FFDM and FFDM alone. Using receiving operating characteristic(ROC) and Z test to analysis the diagnostic efficiency of three examinations.Results Forty-six cases included 14 benign cases and 32 malignant cases. Compared with FFDM, 35 cases showed increased visibility in DBT plus FFDM, that the malignant lesion manifested mass with speculated and architectural distortion(23/27) and the benign lesion manifested mass with halo sign(6/8). Eleven cases didn't show increase visibility in both DBT plus FFDM and FFDM alone. The ration of BI-RADS 0 in FFDM was 23.9%(11/46), meanwhile in other two examination were 0. The ration of BI-RADS 3 in DBT plus FFDM was the lowest(6.5%, 3/46). When the lesion in DBT plus FFDM showed mass or speculated, in MRI showed similar morphology with mass or mass-like enhancement. According pathology as the gold standard, excluded 11 cases with BI-RADS 0 in FFDM, there was significant statistical difference between DBT plus FFDM and FFDM alone in 35 cases (Z=2.132, P=0.033) to differentiate benign and malignant breast disease, the area of ROC curve were respectively 0.955, 0.878. There is no statistical difference between DBT plus FFDM and MRI in 46 cases (Z=0.502, P=0.616), the area of ROC curve were respectively 0.887, 0.908.Conclusion DBT combined with FFDM can improve both detection of breast lesion and diagnostic efficiency, while the performance value between DBT and MRI are equal.

Undergraduates in department of laboratory medicine were organized to participate in United Kingdom National External Quality Assessment Schemes. Case discussion was the main form and contents of cases cover the entire clinical biochemical field. One case was given every 20 days and undergraduates must answer in English. All answers would be summarized and reported by one of them. After results being returned, all undergraduates made a retrospective study. The highest score was 1.74 and the lowest score of-0.4, with the median score of 0.67. Time-window score ranged be-tween 0.98 and 0.41. After participating in the case discussion, students improved clinical problem-solving capa-bility, subjective initiative of clinical practice, English level and the team cooperation ability.
