This study reported the analysis of plasma phospholipid metabolism of the rats and the pathological biomarkers between the type 2 diabetes model control group (MC) and the normal control group (NC). SD rats were randomly divided into 2 groups: NC and MC. To investigate state of plasma metabolite profiling in normal body, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) model group using UPLC-Q-TOF/MS which was used as analysis tool in this research. The compounds were identified by UPLC-Q-TOF/MS based on MS/MS fragment ions information, element composition in MassLynx 4.1 and the Lipid Maps database. The sign of two groups of samples in specific markers for screening was through a software package in R software (BioMark software). The results show that the pathological markers were mainly phosphatidylcholine (PC) and triglycerides (TG); the 2-acyl PC in the MC group was less more obviously than that in the NC group; high carbon number and high degree of unsaturation of the TG was reduced under the condition of type 2 diabetes. In the state of type 2 diabetes, metabolic changes occurred in rat plasma phospholipids obviously, which had a close relationship with the occurrence and development of T2DM.

Objective Few researches have been reported on the gene methylation in children with steroid-sensitive nephrot-ic syndrome (SSNS) or steroid-dependent nephrotic syndrome (SDNS).This study aimed to investigate the possible pathogenesis and therapeutic target of SSNS and SDNS by screening differentially methylated genes ( DMGs) and bioinformatic analysis using DNA meth-ylation microarray. Methods This study included 3 hospitalized children with SSNS and another 4 with SDNS, all treated with full dose of prednisone ( 2 mg per kilogram of the body weight per day or 60 mg per m2 per day).Negative urine protein was achieved within 4 weeks in the former group , while the latter , though sensitive to hor-monal therapy , relapsed within 2 weeks after drug withdrawal or dose reduction .DNA was extracted from the peripheral blood of the patients in both groups for screening DMGs and bioinformatic analysis using DNA methylation microarray . Results Compared with the patients with SSNS, 318 DMGs were found in the SDNS group , among which 193 were hypermethylated and the other 125 hypomethylated .These abnormal genes were mainly located in the open reading frame of DNA and the CpG island region .DMGs were mainly involved in Rho guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity , nucleoside-triphosphatase regulator activity , GTPase activator activity , and other molecular functions .The biological processes were chiefly associ-ated with the regulation of the generation of precursor metabolites and energy , antigen processing and presentation , regulation of Rho and Ras protein signal transduction , lamellipodium assembly , regeneration , and other biological processes .The cell composition was mainly related to MHC protein complexes , perichromatin fibrils , and the MHC class I protein complex .Analysis of the KEGG signaling pathway showed that DMGs participated in 9 signaling pathways , involving type I diabetes , starch and sucrose metabolism , allograft re-jection, autoimmune thyroid disease , and others. Conclusion The heterogeneity of methylation is widespread in children with SDNS and may be one of the causes of steroid dependence , which has provided a basis for searching for potential therapeutic targets .

microRNAs play an important regulative role in body's growth and development,and the development of the disease process.Much microRNAs can maintain normal kidney function and regulate kidney pathological process,the miR-30a has extensive effect on kidney development and progression of renal diseases.In this review,a brief overview on the role of miR-30a in renal pathology is presented.

Steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS) is a relatively difficult clinical type of treatment.The major therapy measures in present include steroid and immunosuppressant.Commonly used immunosuppressant include tacrolimus,cyclosporin,cyclophosphamide,mycophenolate mofetil,ect.Tacrolimus-induced clinical remission rate is superior to other immunosuppressive agents,has been the first-line agent of SRNS.Because of the individual difference in metabolism,the drug concentration of tacrolimus should be determined periodically.In order to obtain optimal efficacy of tacrolimus and reduce renal toxicity,the treatment protocols of small doses with long courses for children with SRNS were recommended.

Objective To study the course of different cervical nerve segments and their related intervertebral foramen’s size so as to increase safety and decrease complications in microinvasive surgery for cervical syndrome. Methods Fifteen human cervical specimens (30 sides) were anatomically observed for the course, branches and distribution of cervical nerves. Results The diameter of intervertebral foramen ranges from 0.54 to 0.65 cm, and increases gradually from top to bottom. The vertical diameter and anteroposterior diameter between C4, C5 and C6 vertebrae are smaller, and those between C3 and C7 are larger, but the diameter line of nerve root in intervertebral foramen from up to down gradually increases. The anteversion angle between nerve root and spine cord on horizontal plane is from 15? to 19?, within a small variation, while the declination angle on coronal plane gradually decreases from C3 to C7. There exist plenty of anastomosis branches among the cervical dorsal rami. Conclusion In the range of 0.6 cm around articular process at the entrance of intervertebral foramen, it is the narrowest part, the removal of which may alleviate the pressure on nerve root and benefit spinal stability. Because of the general existence of anastomosis branches of cervical nerve, the symptoms of cervical syndrome are not completely consistent to innervation. The intervertebral foramen between C4, C5, C6 is relatively small and the diameter line of nerve root is comparatively large, so the nerve root at C4, C5, C6 is most likely to be pressed.

Objective To analysis the relationship among coping styles,personality and mental health of female reserve duty soldiers in parade training,and built a path model on them.Methods Coping style questionnaire ,self check list(SCL-90) and Eysenck personality questionnaires were administered to 264 female reserve duself-blame( r=0.194) effected mental health directly.Self-blame(r=0.230) ,retreat( r=0.197) and illusion( r = 0.322) predicated mental health indirectly by the mediation of neuroticism.Conclusion Coping styles can influence mental health directly,and neuroticism is a mediation variance between coping styles and mental health.

Objective To investigate the feasibility of ADC values in the evaluation of normal fetal brain development by measuring ADC values changes in specific regions with advancing gestational age.Methods Forty fetuses(gestational age:24 to 41 weeks) with normal brain underwent DWI(b value were 0 and 600 s/mm2).ADC values of the frontal white matter(WM),occipital WM,thalamus,basal ganglia,and cerebellum were measured by post-processing software.The differences among different regions' ADC values were calculated by repeated measurements of ANOVA,and simple linear regression was used to evaluate the relationship between ADC values and gestational age.Results The mean ADC valuesof 40 fetuses were(1 800±214) ×10-6mm2/s in frontal WM,(1 400±100) ×10-6mm2/s in basal ganglia,(1 300±126) ×10-6mm2/s in thalamus,(1 700±133) ×10-6mm2/s in occipital WM and(1 400± 155) × 10-6mm2/s in cerebellum,respectively.There was significant difference in the ADC values among the five regions(F=80.813,P＜0.01).In pair-wise comparison,ADC values of basal ganglia,thalamus and cerebellum had no significant difference; however,others had significant difference between each other.With the increasing gestational age,ADC values of basal ganglia,thalamus,occipital WM and cerebellum decreased,and had significant negative correlations with gestational age(Pearson correlation coefficient were-0.568,-0.716,-0.830 and-0.700,respectively,all P＜0.01).In terms of ADC value,occipital WM declined fastest with gestational age,followed by cerebellum and thalamus,and the slowest was basal ganglia.Frontal ADC values showed no correlation with gestational age(P＞0.05).Conclusions Specific regions of fetal brain have specific ADC values,and ADC values of the region undergo regular change with advancing gestational age.ADC value is a specific quantitative parameter that could help to evaluate normal brain development and early diagnosis of fetal brain lesions.

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinicopathologic characteristics of different nation nonHodgkin lymphoma (NHL)in Urumqi of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.MethodsFour hundred and sixty-six cases of NHL were collected.Their sections including HE and immunohistochemical staining were examined again for diagnosis and classification.ResultsAmong 466 cases NHL,B cell neoplasm was 369cases (79.2 ％) and T cell lymphoma was 97 cases (20.8 ％).193 cases (41.4 ％) occured in the lymph node and 273 cases (58.6 ％) extranodal lymphoma.The most common subtypes were diffuse large B-cell lymphoma,small lymphocytic lymphoma/chronic lymphocytic leukaemia,extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of mucosaassociated lymphoid tissue,NK/T cell lymphoma,peripheral T-cell lymphoma,follicular lymphoma.Tlymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LBL) and anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) in the Uygur were higher than the Han [7.5 ％ (9/120) vs 1.3 ％ (4/308),x2 =11.276,P=0.001; 4.2 ％ (5/120) vs 2.3 ％ (7/308),x2 =1.137,P =0.286],and T/NK cell lymphoma in the Han was higher than the Uygur [7.1 (22/308) vs 3.3 ％ (4/120),x2 =2.196,P =0.138].There was no statistically significance between the Uygur and Han in different subtypes of B-NHL (P ＞0.05).ConclusionIn Urumqi aera,the incidence is higher in extranodal lymphoma than that in nodal.B-NHL is more in Urumqi area than that in other area in our country.There is no difference obviously for mobility B-NHL in the Uygur and Han,but T-LBL and ALCL in the Uygur are higher than those in the Han,and T/NK cell lymphoma in the Han is higher than that in the Uygur.It is suggested to confirm further whether the different associated with different nation and region.
