OBJECTIVE: Through the use of the categories of auditory performance (CAP-II), the speech, spatial and qualities of hearing scale-parents' version (SSQ-P), children using hearing implants quality of life (CuHI-QoL) in patients with prelingual hearing impairment to compare the rehabilitation effect between preoperative and postoperative auditory performance, speech behavior and quality of life and at the same time to figure out dose rehabilitation effect connected to age. METHOD: Mainly used classification method to compare the audotory performance, speech behavior and quality of life of 50 patients before and after 2.5 years after the implantation. At the same time these 50 patients are divided on the basis of the age received the surgery, A group received the surgery before 6(1.0-5.9) years old and group B received the therapy after this age (6.0-10.9). Their auditory performance, speech behavior and quality of life were all evaluated. RESULT: There were statistical difference between two kinds of classification method of CAP-II. In the study of SSQ-P and CuHI-QoL, there was no statistical difference in well-being and happiness before and 3 years after the implant, also there was no statistical difference in parental stress between two age groups. In addition to the above two, the rest all have statistical significance. CONCLUSION After the implant, postoperative auditory performance, speech behavior and quality of life all had improved and the smaller the age, the better the performance.

Objective To compare the mRNA level of macrophage inflammatory protein-3α(MIP-3α) in 3 different mucosal epithelial cell lines. Methods RNA standards were prepared by in vitro transcription. One-step real-time RT-PCR was established and optimized using TaqMan EZ RT-PCR Core Reagents with TaqMan probes and primers specific to human MIP-3α mRNA sequence. The specificity of one-step real-time RT-PCR method was confirmed by sequencing the PCR products. The sensitivity and reproducibility of the method was examined by repeating the test 8 times with the same sample. Results The one-step real-time RT-PCR with a wide detection range is sensitive, reproducible. It was found that MIP-3α mRNA level in Caco-2 and T-84 cells was much higher than that in the HeLa cells. Conclusion High level of MIP-3α mRNA could be found in mucosal epithelial cells and difference in transcription level of MIP-3α may exist in epithelial cells from different mucosa.

Objective To compare the efficacy and complications between transurethral resec-tion of the prostate(TURP) and transurethral vaporization-resection of the prostate (TUVRP). Methods 637 cases of benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH)were divided into 2 groups, 298 cases un-derwent TURP and 339 underwent TUVRP. The maximal flow rates (Qmax) were (9.8±2.3)ml/s, (10.1±2.1) ml/s, the international prostatic symptom scores (IPSS) were 15.3±3.1,15.1±3.7 re-spectively. The surgical outcomes and the complications of the 2 groups were analyzed. Results For the TURP group and TUVRP group, the postoperative Qmax were (19.0±2.9)ml/s and (18.0±2.3) ml/s, both significantly higher than those of preoperation(P<0.01). There was no significant differ-ence between the 2 groups(P0.05). For the TURP group, the mean operation time was (52±16) rain, visual hematuria lasting for (9.0±2.3) d, secondary bleeding in 6 cases (2.0%), lower urinary tract infection in 14 cases(4.7%), 1 month after operation lower urinary tract symptom(LUTS) in 26 case(8.7%), IPSS was 5.0±1.4, contemporary incontinence in 6 cases(2.0%), memberanous sticture 4 cases(1.3%). For the TUVRP group, the mean operation time was (68%19)min, visual hematuria lasting for (12.0±3.6) d, secondary bleeding in 19 cases (5.6%), lower urinary tract infection in 38 cases(11.2%) ,1 month after operation LUTS in 59 cases(17.4%) ,IPSS was 8.0±1.6,contemporary incontinence in 13 cases(3.8%), memberanous stieture in 16 cases (4.7%). There were significant differences between the 2 groups. For the TURP group, blood loss during operation was (126±29) ml, resected tissue weighed (31±8)g, pre- and post-operative serum natium consentration balance was (8±6)mmol/L,TURS developed in 3 cases(1%). For the TUVRP group, blood loss during opera-tion was (122±38)ml, resected tissue weighed (33±9)g,pre- and post-operative serum natium con-sentration balance was (7±7) mmol/L, TURS developed in 2 cases(0.6%). There was no significant differences(P0.05). Conclusions TURP and TUVRP have similar efficacy treating symptomatic BPH. The incidences of complications of TUVRP are slightly higher than those of TURP.

Background and purpose: When patients have positive sentinel lymph node (SLN), axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) is usually performed, but most of them have no metastasis in the non-sentinel lymph node (nSLN). It is of great significance to predict metastasis of nSLN precisely. The aim of the study was to establish a nomogram for the intraoperative prediction of nSLN metastasis in breast cancer patients using one-step nucleic acid amplification (OSNA) techniques and to direct the subsequent therapy for breast cancer effectively. Methods: Of 552 breast cancer patients who underwent SLN biopsy in the 2010 OSNA clinical trial, 103 with SLN metastasis treated with ALND were assessed to establish a nomogram for intraoperative prediction of nSLN based on the molecular diagnosis. A validation cohort of 61 patients who met the similar criteria in the 2015 OSNA clinical trial subsequently validated it. Results: Primary tumor size, total tumor load, the number of positive SLNs and negative SLNs were associated with the presence of nSLN metastasis based on the multivariable logistic regression results, and a nomogram was established with these variables. Its area under the ROC curve was 0.814 for the predictive model and it was 0.842 in the re-validation cohort. The tumor size assessed by the postoperative histological examination was replaced by the size evaluated by the imaging examination, and the area under the ROC curve was 0.838. There was no statistically significant difference in the accuracy compared with the former validation data (P=0.7406). Conclusion: The predictive nomogram based on the molecular diagnosis can predict the nSLN metastases intra/post-operatively. It appears to be obviously superior to other predictive models and may help to guide the axillary management and to make decisions about radiation target region.

Objective To explore the preparation of specific immune RMA(iRNA) on anti-rabies and further study immunotherapy of rabies virus exposure. Methods Horses were immunized with the rabi-es virus and their livers were isolated from the horse of antiserum, from which total RNA was extracted and purified by sodium lauryisulfonate, phenol, chloroform, ethyiene glycol monomethyl ether, cetyltrimethyam-moniumbromide and alcohol. Results Pure preparation physico-chemical characterization was analyzed, and it's weight was 0.15% of weight of liver. The RNA contained 2.86% DNA and 1.16% protein. The iRNA with a maximum UV absorbance at 258 nm and A_(258/280) about 2.0. The test of RNA was positive, which had a relative molecular mas of 13.7×10~3 by high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC), and its hy-perchromic effect was 50.67%. The vesults of biological activity was showed that the rate of leucocyte adher-ence inhibition(LAI) was 41.73%, The protective rate was 50% and prolonging the life was 31.62%. Conclusion The results obtained with the practical value were identical and provide a basis on medicines of anti-rabies.

Background and purpose:Whether axillary sentinel lymph node biopsy (ASLNB) could replace axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) in patients who converted after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) from cN+ to ycN0 is still contentious, and the previous study only evaluated the pathological status of ALN without internal mammary lymph node (IMLN) condition. This study is to evaluate roles of ASLNB and internal mammary sentinel lymph node biopsy (IM-SLNB) in breast cancer patients after NAC.Methods:From Jan. 2012 to Dec. 2014, 60 breast cancer cT1-4N0-3M0patients who were scheduled for neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) and agreed to accept surgery after NAC from our department were enrolled into the retrospective study. Patients with cN0 before NAC and ycN0 after NAC underwent ASLNB (group A). Patients with cN+ received NAC and ycN0 after NAC (group B) were treated with ASLNB and ALND. Only patients whose clinical nodal status remained positive (ycN+) after NAC underwent ALND without ASLNB (group C). All the patients received radiotracer injection and patients in group A and group B received blue dye injection additionally. Meanwhile, IM-SLNB would be performed for all patients with IM-SLN visualization.Results:The number of patients enrolled in group A, group B and group C was 6, 45 and 9 cases respectively. The accuracy rate of ASLNB in group A was 100% (6/6). Only one patient was axillary sentinel lymph node (ASLN) positive performed ALND. With combination of blue dye and radiolabeled colloid, the accuracy rate of ASLNB in group B was 100% (48/48) and the false negative rate (FNR) was 17.9% (5/28). The FNR in patients with 1, 2 and>2 SLNs examined was 27.3% (3/11), 20.0% (2/10) and 0% (0/7). All of the ALNs were positive in group C. The visualization rate of IM-SLN was 63.3% (38/60). The detection rate of IM-SLNB was 97.4% (37/38) and the metastasis rate was 8.1% (3/37). The incidence of complications was 5.3% (2/38).Conclusion:ASLNB can be performed either before or after preoperative chemotherapy for patients with cN0 disease. Among women with cN+ converted to ycN0 who had 3 or more SLNs examined, the FNR could return to be less than 10%. Those patients whose nodes are still ycN+ should perform ALND. IM-SLNB should be performed routinely in all breast cancer patients after NAC, for it might help to make clear of the nodal staging and the pathological status of IM-SLN and provide the accurate indication of radiation to the internal mammary area in case of under-stage and under-/over-treatment, expecting to develop the deifnition of pathological complete response (pCR).

Objective:This study was conducted to evaluate the roles of internal mammary sentinel lymph node biopsy (IM-SL-NB) in the treatment of breast cancer patients with clinically positive axillary lymph nodes. Methods:This study is a one-armed clini-cal research conducted from June 2013 to October 2014. A total of 64 breast cancer patients from Shandong Cancer Hospital with clini-cally positive axillary lymph nodes were enrolled in the study. All patients underwent axillary lymph node dissection. Meanwhile, IM-SLNB was performed in all patients using the new injection method of radiotracer. Results:Among the 64 enrolled patients, the visual-ization rate of internal mammary lymph node was 59.4%(38/64). For the 38 patients who were subjected to visualization of the internal mammary node, the detection rate was 100%(38/38), and the incidence of complications was 7.9%(3/38). The metastasis rate of inter-nal mammary lymph node was 21.1%(8/38). Patients with upper inner quadrant tumors and metastasis of more axillary lymph nodes had a significantly higher chance of developing sentinel lymph node metastasis (P<0.001 and P=0.017, respectively) than the other pa-tients. The clinical benefit rate of the above mentioned treatment was 59.4%. Among the patients, 12.5%(8/64) received extra internal mammary radiotherapy, whereas 46.9%(30/64) patients avoided the unnecessary internal mammary radiotherapy. Conclusion:IM-SL-NB should be performed in breast cancer patients with clinically positive axillary lymph nodes because IM-SLNB could provide the ac-curate indication of radiation to the internal mammary area, especially for the patients with upper inner quadrant tumors and those with a suspiciously high level of axillary lymph node metastasis.

Objective To investigate the effect of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) activation on the heat stressinduced apoptosis of pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (PMVECs).Methods A mouse model of severe heat stroke was made and TUNEL and immunohistochemistry were employed to detect lung tissue damage.MACS separation was used for isolation of neonatal PMVECs,and TUNEL was utilized to detect the apoptosis of PMVECs.Western blotting was used for determining the MAPKs activation during heat stress recovery (0,2,6h).The monolayer permeability of endothelial cells was detected in terms of transmembrane resistance (TEER) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP).Cells were pretreated with MAPKs activation inhibitors to examine the effect of heat stress on the monolayer cell permeability and apoptosis.Results In mice with severe heat stroke,extensive apoptosis of PMVECs was found in their pulmonary tissues.TUNEL revealed that the number of apoptotic cells increased over time during heat stress recovery period and heat stress could activate MAPKs in PMVECs.Compared with heat stress group,in the cells pretreated with p38 or ERK activation inhibitor PD98059 and SB203580,the monolayer permeability and apoptosis increased while in cells pretreated withJNK inhibitor SP600125,the cellular permeability and apoptosis decreased.Conclusion In mice with severe heat stoke,PMVECs might experience apoptosis and p38 and ERK could inhibit apoptosis while JNK could promote apoptosis.

Metabolomics is an emerging and popular subject in the post-genome era, and a large number of studies have been noted on the application of metabolomics in health evaluation, growth and development evaluation, disease diagnosis, and therapeutic efficacy evaluation. As a special period of life, the neonatal period is characterized by rapid cell renewing, consumption of a lot of energy and materials, and changes in metabolic pathways, all of which affect the level of metabolites. However, there is still no reference standard for metabolic level and profile in neonates. This article reviews the current status of metabolic research on neonatal growth and development and common diseases and related clinical application of metabolomics, so as to provide new ideas for nutrition guidance and evaluation, selection of therapeutic regimens, and new drug research in neonates.
