Objective To explore the investigative studies of experimental value on the children suffered from a parotitis with pancreatitis.Methods 108 children patients were divided into 3 sub-groups:parotitis,parotitis with minigitis,parotitis with pancreatitis.45 cases were pantitis,24 were parotitis with pancreatitis and 39 were parotitis with minigititis.All the patients had serum amylase,serum lipase and abdominal B-ultrasound detected.All the results were statistically analyzed.Results The patients who had parotitis with pancreatitis were higher at abnonmal serum lipase and B-ultrasound(?~2=58.68,P

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the reason and protection measures of occupational exposure.METHODS From Jan 2005-Mar 2008,all medical personnel in our hospital were investigated by face to face investigation and checking recording data.The causes,modalities,management and prophylaxis of occupational exposure were analyzed.RESULTS Seventy-six person suffered occupational exposure,including 51 nurses(67.11%),18 doctors(23.68%) and the other 7 workers.Occupational exposure mainly occurred in 20-30 years old medical workers.61 persons(80.26%) suffered stab injury and sharp instrument injury.All 76 front medical personnel could make appropriate management after occupational exposure and without further infection.CONCLUSIONS Some first front medical personnel do not recognize the hazard of the occupational exposure.It′s necessary to enhance the management and training and to establish a corresponding standard to protect medical personnel from being harmed by occupational exposure.

Calponin is an actin filament-associated regulatory protein expressed in smooth muscle and many types ofnonmuscle cells.Three calponin isoforms 1,2,and 3 are encoded by three homologous genes CNN1,CNN2 and CNN3 in vertebrate species with cell type-specific expression and functions.Besides modulating the activity of smooth muscle myofilaments and contractility,calponin also regulates the functions of actin cytoskeleton in non-muscle cells during cell proliferation,adhesion,migration,differentiation,phagocytosis and fusion.This review focuses on the evolution,tissue and cell type-specific expression,structure-function relationships,transcriptional regulation and relevant mechanisms.

Objective To investigate the effect of variation of cesarean sections during labour and their indications on the total cesarean section rate. Methods A total of 458 cases of cesarean section was selected from January to June of 1990,1996,2002. They were divided as indication group and no indication group. The change of the indication and cesarean section rate was compared. Results The ratio of cesarean section during labour in total cesarean sections rised. The ratio was 22.0%, 20.8% and 39.4% in 1990, 1996 and 2002 respectively. The proportion of no indication surgery in 2002(63.37%) showed significant growth as compared with that of 1990 (33.84) and 1996 (32.58). Of all cases of cesarean section having indications, the rate of trial produce failure increased in 2002 (25.81%) while it was 11.45% and 16.67% in 1990 and 1996 respectively. The rate of fetal distress decreased from 25.19% (1990), 21.67% (1996) to 12.90% (2002). Conclusion Ascen ding of cesarean section rates during labour was an important factor that increased cesarean section rate in recent years. To decrease the total rates of cesarean section, many important measures should be done such as paying more attention to social factors, reinforcing propaganda and maternal health care , encouraging spontaneous vaginal delivery, emphasizing company during labour and analgesia or pain free delivery, laying stress on the management and monitoring during first stage of labour as well as psychological care.

Objective To observe the effects of interleukin-1 ?(IL-1?) on spontaneous electrical activity of neurons in paravenrticular nuclei,and discuss the possible mechanism.MethodsExtracellular recording technique was employed to observe the effects of IL-1? on spontaneous electrical activity of neurons in paravenricular nuclei in rat hypothalamic slices,and the influence of losartan on the electrical activity induced by IL-1? was examined.ResultsAfter exposure to IL-1?(1?10-7 mol/L),the discharge frequency was significantly increased in 46 of the 59 discharge units(78%) of neurons(P

Novel oneogene with kinase-domain (NOK) can activate multiple mitogenic signaling pathways including the janus kinases(JAK) and signal transducer and activator of transcription proteins (STAT). It was showed that NOK specifically and physicallyinteracted with STAT3 in human embryo kidney 293T (HEK293T) cells. In addition, NOK could directly interact with most of the STAT3 subdomains except coiled-coil and C-terminal domains. Removing ectodomain and transmembrane domain of NOK markedly enhanced its intermolecular interaction with STAT3. Also, NOK could co-immtmoprecipitate with JAK2. in vivo. Importantly, co-expression of NOK and JAK2 produced a synergistic effect on NOK-mediated STAT3 activation, while inactivating the kinase domain of JAK2 completely prevented this synergistic effect. Overall, the results indicated that NOK might complex with both STAT3 and JAK2 and activate STAT3 signaling by a JAK2-dependent mechanism.

Objective To explore the feasibility of using portable γ spectrometer to rapidly identify the low activity of depleted uranium and the underlying conditions.Methods Firstly,high purity germanium (Ge) γ spectrometer was used to analyze energy spectrum of DU samples (5 g) and calculate nuclide percentage of 235U in an attempt to ascertain the properties of these DU samples.The portable γ spectrometer was used to provide the evidences for identification of DU samples.Secondly,portable γ spectrometer was also used to identify DU samples of same group.These samples contain 1 g DU powder and 0-5 g environmental clay powder,which were sealed with double layer pocket,and then detected with a distance of 1-5 cm during the longest detection time of 10 min.According to the detection of nuclide activity of 238U and 235U in the samples and the subsequent calculation of specific activity,the nuclide percentage composition was calculated and the existence of DU was confirmed if this value of 235U was less than 0.718％.Results The activity of 238U was detected using portable γ spectrometer under all test conditions,while the activity of 235U was detectable only under certain test conditions (MA ≥ 1 g,DN ≤ 1 cm).Under the condition that the 238U and 235U was both detected,the nuclide percentage of 235U was all less than 0.718％,which suggested that the DU was confirmed.Conclusions The energy spectrum of low activity of DU and the type of nuclide could rapidly be identified and evaluated by using portable γ spectrometer.This is same as the conclusions obtained with high purity Ge γ spectrometer,α spectrometer and ICP-MS.
