Objective To investigate the association between CYP1A1 gene polymorphism and toxicities related to high-does methotrexate of childhood acute leukemia. Methods The SNPs were detected by reverse transcriptional (RT)-PCR-denaturing gradient gel elelctrphoresis combined with direct sequencing in 51 children with acute leukemia. Toxicities were collected thereby. Results Only one SNP,A4889G, was screened in CYP1A1. A4889G polymorphism was not associated with all the toxicities (P > 0.05). High-risk ALL children were more likely to increase the risk of thrombocytopenia compared with standard-risk ALL (P< 0.05). Conclusions CYP1A1 A4889G polymorphism may be not association with all toxicities after HD-MTX ,but the thrombocytopenia may be relevant to the risk degree of ALL children.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) intervention on depression and anxiety in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).Methods90 patients with BPH (aged 65 years and over) from June 2009 to June 2010 were randomly assigned to control(n= 45) and CGA (n = 45) group.Control group received conventional therapy,while CGA group was given CGA and consultation therapy as well as conventional therapy.The scores of international were assayed and compared between two groups before and 6 months after treatment.ResultsThe scores of international prostate symptom score (IPSS),quality of life scale (QOLS),self-rating depression scale (SDS) and self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) in control (t= 11.0,5.84,7.08and 9.68,respectively) and CGA (t= 14.0,10.4,9.16 and 6.1,respectively)group 6 months after treatment reduced as compared with those before treatmen (all P ＜ 0.01).After 6 months of treatment,the scores of IPSS,QOLS,SDS and SAS in CGA group were lower than in control group (t= 4.25,5.55,3.45 and 2.88,respectively,all P＜0.01).ConclusionsCGA intervention can improve the quality of life in BPH patients and alleviate their depression and anxiety.

The lengths and depths of occlusal rest base slope were calcukted accurately when the inclinations of occlusal rest base were 10?,15?and 20?at 1/2, 1/3 and 1/4 crown width respectively. The data will be usefull in the process of removable denture design with computer and provide a suitable way for the preparation of tilt abutment.

Objective To evaluate the clinical usefulness of 99m Tc MIBI imaging for the diagnosis of breast malignancy.Methods 195 patients with a total of 204 breast lesions were divided into three groups to undergo 99m Tc MIBI imaging and the results were compared with pathology.20 cases with normal breast served as control.Abnormal density showed by 99m Tc MIBI imaging in the breast(10% higher than surrounding structure) was regarded as positive.Results Of 100 breast cancer lesions,positive feature appeared in 92.Twelve out of 70 benign breast lesions showed positive imaging.Six out of 34 breast occult lesions were with positive imaging, among them 3 were finally found with carcinoma.No positive imaging was found in the control group.The diagnostic accuracy,sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value,negative predictive value of 99m Tc MIBI was 92 0%,91 8%,92%,86%, and 92%,respectively.Conclusions[WT5”BZ] 99m Tc MIBI imaging has high sensitivity and accuracy in the diagnosis of breast cancer and in the differentiation between benign and malignant breast lesions.

Objective To investigate the single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP)in the coding region in cyto-chrome P4501 A1 (CYP1A1)gene and to evaluate the contributions of SNPs to acute lymphocytic leukemia(ALL)and acute myeloid leukemia(AML)susceptibility in children.Methods One hundred and twenty -one(male 76,female 45)children with acute leukemia were selected from Department of Hematology in Shenzhen Children′s Hospital,Zuyi Medical College between January 2007 and January 201 4 as the case study group,and the average age was 4.42 years old.Case study group included 1 01 (male 65,female 36,average age 4.38 years old)ALL children (ALL group)and 20(male 1 1 ,female 9,average age 4.66 years old)AML children(AML group).A total of 1 1 6(male 74,female 42) children with respiratory tract infections on health examination during the same period were selected as the control group and the average age was 3.93 years old.SNPs in the coding region in CYP1A1 gene were detected by reverse transcrip-tional(RT)-PCR -denaturing gradient gel elelctrphoresis(DGGE)combined with direct sequencing in the case study group and the control group.Results Only one SNP,A4889G,was screened in the open reading frame (ORF)of CYP1A1 gene in Chinese Han children and the G allele frequency of CYP1A1 gene in the case group,ALL group,AML group and the control group were 31 .4%,32.2%,27.5% and 38.8%.The CYP1A1 A4889G AG and AG +GG geno-type were linked with decreased risk of AML(OR =0.31 ,95%CI:0.1 1 -0.87,P =0.02;OR =0.35,95%CI:0.1 4 -0.93,P =0.03)especially in boys with AML(OR =0.1 2,95%CI:0.03 -0.60,P =0.01 ;OR =0.1 6,95%CI:0.04 -0.65,P =0.01 ),but the CYP1A1 A4889G polymorphism was not associated with the risk of ALL(P >0.05). The CYP1A1 A4889G allele frequency and the distribution of genotypes were significantly different from those reported in America,India,Korea,Brazil and Iran(all P <0.05).Conclusions CYP1A1 A4889G polymorphism may be not as-sociated with susceptibility to ALL,but may decrease the risk of childhood AML especially in boys with AML.In addi-tion,it may exhibit an ethnic difference.

Objective Using Nutrition Risk Screening (NRS 2002),to assess the nutritional risk of inpatients with digestive diseases and evaluate its clinical significance.Methods The information of 274 patients med the inclusion criteria were collected in our department from August to October 2011.Nutrition status was assessed according to NRS 2002 by trained nurses.Results The prevalence of nutritional risk was 22.99 ％ (63/274).The rate of nutritional risk of the elderly inpatients (≥ 65y) with digestive diseases was significant higher the younger ones (＜ 65y)(32.95％ vs 18.28％,P ＜ 0.05).74.6％ inpatients with nutritional risk and 52.13％ with no risks were given enteral or parenteral nutritional support during the hospitalized period.Conclusion There was higher nutritional risk rate in inpatients with digestive diseases,especially the elderly ones.For deferent patients,the nutritional support should be on the basis of patient' s nutritional state.

Objective: To establish an animal model for research of maxillary protraction. Methods: 16 pubertal rabbits were assigned randomly to 2 groups. Titanium bone markers were fixed on each side of mucogingival junction, 1 cm above incisor teeth. The experimental group underwent maxillary protraction by self-made distraction devices. A down and forward elastic force (about 3.43 N) was exerted for 30 days. Results: In 30 d, the distance of premaxilla movement in the experimental group was 1.89 mm averagely, while that in the control group was only 0.11 mm. Cephalometric analysis indicated that the maxilla of rabbits was moved forward obviously by appliance in the experimental group, and maxilla was not rotated. There was no obvious difference between the control and the experimental groups. Conclusion: Animal model used in this experiment for maxillary protraction is reliable. The appliance can move the rabbits maxilla forward obviously during the maxillary protraction.

Objective To evaluate the endocrine glands derived VEGF (EG-VEGF) influence on growth, migration and apoptosis of pancreatic cancer cells MiaPaCa Ⅱ. Methods MiaPaCa Ⅱ were treated by 100,200 ng/ml EG-VEGF for 24, 48, 72, 96 h, and MTT assay was used to determine the proliferation; and cell scratch experiment was used to investigate the percentage of cell migration distance, flow cytometry was used to measure the apoptosis of the cancer cells. Results After MiaPaCa Ⅱ cells were treated by 0, 100,200 ng/ml EG-VEGF for 72 h, the proliferation of MiaPaCa Ⅱ was 0. 253 ± 0. 012 , 0. 374 ± 0.013,0. 383 ±0.015, respectively EG-VEGF could significantly promote the proliferation of MiaPaCa Ⅱ ( P ＜ 0. 05 ). After MiaPaCa Ⅱ cells were treated by 0, 100 ng/ml EG-VEGF for 24 h, the percentage of cell migration distance was (27.40 ± 3.45 ) % and ( 13.21 ±4.65 ) % ,respectively with statistical difference ( P ＜ 0.05 ), EG-VEGF could significantly promote the migration ability of MiaPaCa Ⅱ cells and inhibite the apoptosis. Conclusions After EG-VEGF treatment, the growth and migration ability of MiaPaCa Ⅱ cells increases, apoptosis decreases.
