A method was established for the simultaneous determination of the total fatty acid esters of chloropropanols in edible oils by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry combined with isotope dilution technology. The samples were hydrolyzed with sodium methylate-methanol, and then purified by diatomite cartridge. After being derivatized with heptafluorobutyrylimidazole ( HFBI ), the target analytes were determined by GC-MS with the deuteriumchloropropanols esters as the internal standards. An excellent linear correlation in the range of 0. 050-2. 000 mg / L was acquired for 3-monochloropropane-1,2-diol (3-MCPD) esters, 2-MCPD esters, dichloropropan-2-ol (1,3-DCP) esters and 2,3-dichloropropan-1-ol (2,3-DCP) esters, with all the correlation coefficients (r) higher than 0. 9995. The limits of detection (LODs) for 3-MCPD esters, 2-MCPD esters, 1,3-DCP esters and 2,3-DCP esters were 0. 015, 0. 015, 0. 030, and 0. 030 mg / kg, respectively, and the limits of quantitation (LOQ) were 0. 050, 0. 050, 0. 100, and 0. 100 mg / kg, respectively. The average spike recoveries of the four kinds of chloropropanols esters in blank extra virgin olive oil matrix were typically in a range of 87. 0% -110. 5% with the relative standard deviations (RSDs) less than 10. 1% . The detection rates of 3-MCPD esters, 2-MCPD esters, 1,3-DCP esters and 2,3-DCP esters in 74 edible oil samples were 94. 6% , 63. 5% , 5. 4% , and 0% , respectively. The contamination levels of 3-MCPD esters, 2-MCPD esters and 1,3-DCP esters were in the range of not detected (ND) to 10. 646 mg / kg, ND to 3. 617 mg / kg and ND to 0. 089 mg / kg, respectively. This method is accurate and rugged for the simultaneous determination of total fatty acid esters of chloropropanols in edible vegetable oils.

OBJECTIVETo compare the differences in the therapeutic effect on irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) between acupuncture at Tianshu (ST 25) and Dachangshu (BL 25) and western medication with Trimebutine Maleate.
METHODSForty cases were divided randomly into an acupuncture group and a western medication group, 20 cases in each one. In acupuncture group, acupuncture was applied to Tianshu (ST 25) and Dachangshu (BL 25). Ziwu Daojiu needling technique was adopted, once daily. In western medication group, Trimebutine Maleate capsule was administered, 2 capsules in each time, 3 times per day. The assessment on the therapeutic effect was performed in 4 weeks of treatment in two groups.
RESULTSAs compared with those before treatment, the time of abdominal pain, the frequency of abdominal pain, the morbidity of abnormal stool appearance, the morbidity of defecation abnormality, the morbidity of mucus stool and the score of bloating or abdominal pain on bowel movement were all reduced after treatment in two groups (all P < 0.01). The results in acupuncture group were much more significant than those in western medication group (the total score: 16.70 +/- 2.40 vs 15.70 +/- 3.01, P < 0.01). The total effective rate in acupuncture group was 95.0% (19/20), which was superior to that of 70.0% (14/20) in western medication group (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONAcupuncture at Tianshu (ST 25) and Dachangshu (BL 25) may remarkably relieve the clinical symptoms of IBS and its efficacy is superior to that of oral medication with Trimebutine Maleate.

BACKGROUNDGlycoprotein non-metastatic melanoma protein B (GPNMB) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of inflammatory and malignant diseases. We investigated the expression of GPNMB in benign and malignant skin diseases.
METHODSTissue microarray was performed in the skin tissues of 102 cases including malignant melanoma (MM), squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), basal cell carcinoma (BCC), and benign dermatosis. The expression of GPNMB in the tissues was detected by immunohistochemistry. Twenty cases of normal skin and adjacent neoplastic normal skin tissues were selected as controls.
RESULTSGPNMB was positively stained in skin malignancies (38/50, 76%), which was significantly higher than that in the control and the benign skin tissues (P = 0.001 and < 0.001 respectively). GPNMB was positively stained in MM (13/15, 87%) and SCC (16/20, 80%) (P < 0.001). Significant higher expression of GPNMB was observed in patients aged ≥ 65 years than those less than 65 years (n = 11 and n = 9 respectively, P = 0.027). No significant difference of the expression rates was observed between normal control and BCC; however, stronger intensity was detected in the latter. Negative or weak expression was observed in the controls.
CONCLUSIONOver-expression of GPNMB correlated strongly and might play an important role in the pathogenesis of MM and SCC.

OBJECTIVETo access the pathological changes of the functional localization of the primary auditory cortex in auditory neuropathy patients using magnetoencephalography (MEG).
METHODSThe M100 waves of cortical evoked magnetic fields (AEF) evoked by 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 kHz pure tones were measured respectively in 10 auditory neuropathy patients (20 ears) and 15 healthy young subjects (30 ears) using a whole head 306 channel magnetoencephalography (MEG) system. The auditory cortex magnetic source imaging obtained by superimposing functional MEG data on structural magnetic resonance image (MRI).
RESULTSThe M100 sources were obtained in all 15 healthy young subjects in all frequency except for 8 kHz in 16 ears. But in auditory neuropathy patients, the ratio of M100 from 0.5 to 6 kHz were 27.5% (11/40), 22.5% (9/40), 7.5% (3/40), 5% (2/40), 5% (2/40) respectively and no any waves in 8 kHz. The evoked ratio of M100 in low frequency was high and that decreased gradually with increasing of evoked pure tone frequency. The M100 latentencies and amplitudes were longer and lower in patient group than that in control group (P < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONSAuditory neuropathy is an audiology disease with pathological lesions from the VIII cranial nerve to auditory cortex. MEG might become an important reference in decision making for therapies.

Two Rotavirus G9P[8] strains (LL52696 and LL52727) were recognized during a sentinel-based survey in Lulong, China. Phylogenetic analysis of the VP7 gene showed that both strains isolated constituted a divergent genetic cluster distinct from the other G9 strains isolated in China. Analysis of VP4, VP6, and NSP4 genes revealed that these strains were closely related to Lulong strains. We hold that two strains were reassortant between G9 and Lulong predominant strains.
