Objective To study in vitro ICAM 1 and P selectin expressions of endothelial cells treated with sera from intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP). Methods HUVEC were cultured and stimulated with sera, and the expression of ICAM 1 and P selectin by flow cytometry were measured. Results (1) The expressions of ICAM 1 of P selectin on the HUVEC surface after stimulation with sera from women with ICP were higher than those of without stimulation in normal pregnancy ( P

Objective To probe the effects of the size and location of cranial defect on the neurological symptoms of patients with skull bone defect.Methods The patients were classified into the following groups according to the influence to symptoms by changes in body position and changes of symptoms before and after craniectomy: True syndrome of the trephined(ST,Ⅰ), partial ST patients(Ⅱ), other patients or symptom-free patients (Ⅲ).Results The group I consisted of 33 cases, their defects were located in the parieto-occipital region in 23 cases, frontoparietal in 10 cases. All these patients had flaccid skin flaps that became concave while in the upright position. The group Ⅱ was composed of seven cases, their defects were located in frontoparietal and parieto-occipital region in three respectively. All these patients had flaccied skinflap in defects pars.Group Ⅲ included twelve patients, flat and rigid skin flaps were usually demonstrated , predominantly in the tempora and parietal regions.Conclusions The size and location of the cranial could play an important role in the development of the neurological symptoms.

Objective To identify whether soybean isoflavones plays a role in the prevention of chronicallograft nephropathy(CAN)in rats.Methods Forty-five male Lewis rats as receptors were randomly divided into 3 groups,receiving a diet with protein from high isoflavone soy protein fraction (HIS),low isoflavone soy protein fraction(LIS)or casein(CAS)starting one week before renal transplants from fisher donors,and continuing throughout the study.Serial serum and urine samples were collected at the beginning of the study,and at 4th,12th and 24th week.All rats were killed and the grafts were harvested in the 24th week.The functional and histopathogical changes of renal grafts were evaluated.Results In HIS group,arteria caudilis systolic blood pressure(SBP)value,24 h uri- nary protein(Upro)and serum creatitine(Cr)concentrations were significantly lower than those in LIS and CAS groups(all P

Objective:To explore the variation of tumor cell proteins correlated with cell proliferation and chemo-resis-tance after repeated treatment with chemotherapy drugs.Methods:The human lung cancer cell line(LPET-a-2)was repeat-edly treated with chemotherapy drugs:doxorubicin,etoposide,cisplatin and the combination of the3drugs,and each drug was given at2concentrations.The treatment intervals were recorded.ErbB-2,c-myc,MDR1,MRP,LRP,ref-1and NF-?B were tested by flow cytometry.The cells expressing each protein,the mean and total quantity of each protein after each treat-ment were calculated by different drugs at different concentrations.Results:The levels of every protein decreased along with the time of culture.In high-dose group,every item decreased along with the time of treatment.In low-dose group,there was no rule for the item variation with some decreased and some increased.Conclusion:Low-dose anticancer drugs are easier to induce cell proliferation and chemo-resistance than high-dose one,which suggests that adequate chemotherapy should be given in clinical practice.

Objective To discuss the influence of parturition balloon on the labor course of primi-paras. Methods We divided 160 primiparas into the observation group and the control group with 80 cases in each group.We gave the observation group parturition balloon intervention with the help of midwife. Nursing measures in the control group were the same as those of the observation group except for the appli-cation of parturition balloon. We observed and compared the psychological status,pain;labor course,dehvery manner and postpartum hemorrhage between the two groups. Results The patients in the observation group got alleviation of psychological condition and pain.The rate of caesarean operation rate,postpartum hemorrhage and time cost of labor course were shortened,which were statistically different from those of the control group(P < 0.01 ). Conclusions Nursing intervention with parturition balloon for primiparas could alleviate pain of the patients, shorten time cost of labor course,improve rate of natural parturition and de-crease caesarean operation rate.It is a service model for delivery worthy of application.

Prognostic factors of differentiated thyroid carcinomas ( DTC ) were analyzed and the related literatures were systematically reviewed in order to justify the diagnostic and therapeutic modalities for improving the patient′s survival.150 patients ( female,n =113 ; male,n =37 ) with histopathologically diagnosed DTC,including papillary thyroid carcinoma ( n =131,87.3％ ) and follicular thyroid carcinoma ( n =19,12.7％ ),were postoperatively followed up and their clinical data were retrospectively reviewed.Patients were followed up for 4.15-31 years wherein 140 patients( 93.3％ ) survived but with relapse in 30 patients( 20.0％ ),and 10 patients( 6.7％ ) died.Surgical procedures consisted of near-total or subtotal thyroidectomy ( n =83,55.3％ ),partial thyroidectomy ( n =64,42.7％ ),and total thyroidectomy ( n =3,2.0％ ).Out of the patients receiving lymph node dissection ( n =63 ),45 patients( 71.4％ ) had detectable lymph node metastasis.Age of onset,tumor size at initial visit,and early metastasis showed the statistically significant difference between mortality group and survival group (P＜ 0.05 ),as well as between relapse group and relapse-free group( P＜0.05 ).Age of onset,tumor size at initial visit,and early metastasis are prognostic factors for DTC.

Nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) is an important cellular transcription factor. The important role of NF-κB-mediated cell signal transduction pathway in apoptosis is a hot topic at home and abroad. In order to discover new regulators in NF-κB signaling pathway, a high-throughput cell-based screening model based on dual luciferase reporters system was established, a number of genes that can activate NF-κB signal pathway were obtained by screening of 439 novel function genes. Among them, TMEM9B can obviously activate NF-κB signaling pathway. Further experiments showed that TMEM9B activated NF-κB signaling pathway in a dose-dependent pattern. Western blotting and EMSA experiments confirmed that TMEM9B can promote the degradation of IκBα (a cytoplasm inhibitor of NF-κB), and cause NF-κB shift from the cytoplasm to nucleus. At the same time, flow cytometry result demonstrated TMEM9B can induce apoptosis in HEK293T and HeLa cells. In short, a stable and effective screening system for NF-κB has been established, through which TMEM9B was identified to be able to significantly activate NF-κB signal transduction pathway and thus cause cells apoptosis.

Objective To study peripheral blood lymphocytic ?-adrenoceptor(?-AR) densities and ?_1-adrenoceptor gene(?_1-AR mRNA) expression levels in patients with heart failure,to investigate the influences of different ?-adrenoceptor antagonists in ?-AR densities and ?_1-AR mRNA expression levels.Methods 104 cases of patients with heart failure were randomly divided into non-?-adrenoceptor antagonist group(35 cases),metoprolol group(34 cases) and carvedilol group(35 cases),we repeatly determined the ?-AR densities and ?_1-AR mRNA expression levels after two-month therapy.Results The ?-AR densities and ?_1-AR mRNA expression levels in heart failure group reduced significantly compared to these in normal persons(P0.05).After two-month therapy,?-AR densities and ?_1-AR mRNA expression levels in metoprolol group were significantly higher than those in carvendilol group and non-?-adrenoceptor antagonist group(P0.05).Conclusions The peripheral blood lymphocytic ?-AR densities and ?_1-AR mRNA expression level down-regulates in heart failure,which correlate with the severity of heart failure but etiological factors.Metoprolol can up-regulate the ?-AR densities and ?_1-AR mRNA expression level,whereas carvedilol has no such effects.

Objective With the increasing of the CT examination, the dose of x-ray has been brought to public attention. For the sake of making the MDCT technology better applied, available optimal technology has to be used to reduce the x-ray dose to the patients. Methods Many optimal technologies were involved in, such as ECG modulation, cardiac bowtie, 3D dose modulation, compact geometry design, electron collector and speed 4D CARE dose. Results The result of the research showed that the dose of scanning x-ray of CT could be decreased sharply by using optimal technologies. The Q2 values was the standard which could well evaluate the quality of the CT′s images and the dose of x-ray. Conclusion The quality of images and the dose of x-ray can′t be separated, which must be quoted together.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) in CHOP regimen for un-treated elderly patients with advanced diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Methods:In a prospective phase II study, we analyzed the feasibility of PLD-modified CHOP regimen in elderly patients with advanced stages of DLBCL. PLD was administered at 30 mg/m2 in combination with cyclophosphamide, vincristine, and prednisone at standard doses every 21 d for six cycles. CD20 positive patients were given option for rituximab treatment. Results:From November 2011 to March 2014, 30 patients with a median age of 70 years (range:63 to 80) were enrolled in this study. Up to 24 cases (80.0%) obtained an International Prognostic Index of≥3. The overall re-sponse rate was 86.7%, and the complete remission rate was 66.7%. With a median follow-up of 20.1 months, the 18-month overall and progression-free survival rates were 82.4%and 70.1%, respectively. The main toxicity was neutropenia, reaching grades 3 to 4 in the 24 cases (80.0%). No significant changes existed in patients' left ventricular ejection fraction and serum troponin-T during the study. Four patients (13.3%) showed asymptomatic abnormal changes in electrocardiogram after PLD infusion. Conclusion:CHOP regimen with PLD is an effective alternative for the treatment of DLBCL in elderly patients, exhibiting an acceptable toxicity.
