This study was aimed to improve the drug activity of three kinds of isoflavones from Chickpeas.Biochanin A,formononetin and genistein were used as raw materials.Acetone was used as solvent.Potassium carbonate was used as catalyst.The etherification reaction was with 1,3-dibromopropane,1-bromopropane and 3-bromopropene.The results showed that 9 isoflavone ramifications were synthesized.This method was simple,easy to control with high yield.It was concluded that the product structure was confirmed by 1H-NMR,13C-NMR and ESI-MS analysis.It laid a foundation for the structural study basis in the further research of its drug activity.

Objective To explore the influencing factors of degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis (DLS).Methods Sixty-one DLS patients (DLS group) were enrolled in this study.The control group was formed by 61 patients with same gender and age matched.The lesion position was L4 in two groups.The correlation of intervertebral joint angle,degeneration degree,lumbosacral angle and lumbar spondylolisthesis were analyzed.Results The intervertebral joint and sagittal angle in DLS group was less than that in control group[(37.11 ± 7.52)° vs.(42.44 ± 7.61)°] (P ＜ 0.01).The lumbosacral angle between two groups had no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).The degeneration degree between two groups had significant difference (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion Intervertebral joint and sagittal angle and intervertebral joint degeneration degree have important roles in DLS.

The introduction of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has greatly changed the pattern and natural history of ocular diseases of HIV-infected patients, resulting from the immune recovery and reduction of opportunistic infections. However, ophthalmic complica-tion continues to be concern in AIDS even in the HAART era, especially in developing areas, where absolute majority of HIV-positive patients live. Lack of test facilities and experience, poor conditions of hygiene, different microbiological environment, absence of effective treatment etc., characterize the ophthalmic manifestation of HIV-infected patients in developing countries from that in developed regions and thus pose a great challenge to the ophthalmic treatment in developing area. Not only varied from region to region, ocular complications are distinctive between adults and children. At the same time, the side effects due to the application of HAART pose their own risks of ocular complication and should, therefore, be given more research attention.

Objective To explore the change characteristics of physiological indexes between infants and children during living-donor liver transplantation and discuss methods of regulation and control.Method In this study,42 patients were selected and assigned into two groups according to age:infants group (＜1 year,n =25),and children group (1-16 years,n =17).The preoperative and peri-operative characteristics,intra-operative operation conditions,internal environment changes before and after re-perfusion,postoperative mechanical ventilation time,ICU time,hospital time,infection rate,additional surgery,complications and survival were analyzed.Result PELD (MELD) score,historical surgery rate and hematokrit were lower in children group than in infants group (P＜ 0.05).Serum creatinine and lactate concentrations increased significantly in children group as compared with infants group (P＜0.05).Intra-operative an-hepatic phase and cold ischemia time were shortened significantly (P ＜ 0.05),and incidence rate of re-perfusion syndrome was reduced in children group as compared with infants group (P＜0.05).As compared with pre-re-perfusion,blood lactate concentrations were significantly raised only in infants group and glucose concentrations significantly raised only in children group (P＜0.05).The blood levels of K + were decreased after reperfusion in both two groups,and those in infants group were lower than in children group (P＜ 0.05).Postoperative intensive care unit time was longer in children group than in infants group (P＜ 0.05),and there was no significant difference in survival rate between two groups.Conclusion There are many differences and change characteristics to physiological indexes between infants and children during the operation of living-donor liver transplantation.Timely management and regulation are critical for the success of surgery according to the differences.

BACKGROUND:Pedicle screw implantation is a common method to repair many kinds of diseases of the lower cervical spine. Three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction visualization system can be used in order to improve the accuracy of the implant and improve the prognosis.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of 3D reconstruction visualization system on the accuracy of cervical pedicle screw implantation.
METHODS: The clinical data of 89 patients with cervical spine dislocation, who underwent cervical pedicle screw implantation, were analyzed retrospectively. Patients were divided into control group (46 cases) and observation group (43 cases) according to the navigation method. Patients in the control group underwent C arm X ray two dimensional navigation. Patients in the observation group underwent three-dimensional reconstruction visualization system navigation. Intraoperative placement time was observed, and the accuracy of screw placement was assessed in both groups. The cases were folowed up for 12 months, and the adverse events were recorded and compared.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Intraoperative implantation time was shorter in the observation group than in the control group, but no significant difference was found (P> 0.05). (2) Accuracy rate: There were no three types of nail cases in the observation group, and the accuracy rate was 93% (40/43). In the control group, two cases affected three types of nailing, and the accuracy rate was 81% (37/46). The accuracy rate was significantly higher in the observation group than in the control group (P < 0.05). (3) Postoperative folow-up: None suffered from nerve tissue injury to vertebral artery, blood vessel and spinal cord. The screws of the two groups were in stable condition, without screw breakage or loosening. (4) Results suggested that in lower cervical pedicle nail implantation, 3D reconstruction navigation system can effectively improve the accuracy of screw placement, and does not increase nailing time or lead to adverse events. It is a safe and effective navigation mode.

Objective To analyze the differentially expressed genes in esophageal squamons cell carcinoma (ESCC), para-cancerous tissue (PCT) and normal esophagus tissue (NET) using oligomicroarray and to identify the target genes related to the development and progression of esophageal carcinoma. Methods The total RNAs isolated from ESCC, PCT or NET using one step Trizol method were purified and reversely transcribed into cRNAs. The cRNAs were then fluorescence labeled and hybridized with Agilent oligomicroarray (21 074 probes). The fluorescence intensity features were detected by Agilent scanner and quantified by feature extraction software. The selected candidate genes were confirmed by real time real time fluorescent quantitative RT-PCR immunohistochemistry andWestern blotting.Results ① The oligomicroarray demonstrated that there were 38 up-regulated genes and 61 down-regulated genes. ② The real time fluorescent quantitative RT-PCR revealed that five genes (CTHRC1, INHBA, SPP1 ,LUM, HRK)were more differentially expressed in up-regulated genes. Of which, CTHRC1 displayed more disparity.③ Immunohistochemistry examination showed that the higher expression of CTHRC1 (56.5 %, 26/46) was observed in ESCC. There was significantly difference in expression of CTHRC1 between patients with or without lymph node metastasis (P<0.05). ④ CTHRC1 protein was expressed in both TE-13 and Eca-109 cell lines. Conclusion CTHRC1 is probably one of the most significant biomolecules in ESCC.
