Objective To investigate the changes in proliferation index (PrI) of gingival fibroblasts in nifedipine-induced gingival hyperplasia ( NIFr-HGF). Methods Gingival fibroblasts were derived from a patient with nifedipine-induced gingival hyperplasia. Cells were induced by 10 ng/mL and 1 000 ng/mL nifedipine ( low- and high-concentration drug intervention groups), respectively. Cells were harvested 18 h and 30 h after intervention, cell cycles were detected by flow cytometry, and Prls were calculated. NIFr-HGF without nifedipine induction were served as blank control. Results After induction for the same time, Prls of NIFr-HGF cell cycle of low- and high-concentration drug intervention groups were significantly higher than those of blank control group (P <0.05) , while there was no significant difference between low and high-concentration drug intervention groups (P > 0.05). In low and high-concentration drug intervention groups, Prls of NIFr-HGF cell cycle after intervention for 30 h were significantly higher than those after intervention for 18 h [(57. 54 ± 0.019)% vs (21.15 ±0.011)%, and (59.36 ±0.031)% vs (19.01 ±0.012) %, respectively] (P < 0.05). Conclusion For patients with nifedipine-induced gingival hyperplasia, PrI of NIFr-HGF cell cycle increases with time of nifedipine intervention, while is not significantly related to drug concentration.

Pulmonary cavitary lesions in children consist of a group of heterogeneous diseases, mainly caused by infections, and their imaging manifestations can be similar.It is clinically difficult to distinguish them from other lesions such as bullae, cyst, and emphysema.Some scholars have advanced a concept about thin wall(4 mm or less) and thick wall(more than 4mm).People tried to make this distinction by defining cyst as a thin wall and cavity as a thick wall, but there are considerable overlaps between the two categories in etiology and pathophysiology.They are sometimes difficult to distinguish for imageology, and it is still necessary to find the cause of the disease based on the characteristics.This review divides etiology into two categories: infectious and non-infectious etiology.Combined with chest imaging examination, the purpose is to analyze and summarize the features of pulmonary cavitary lesions in children, and provide a diagnostic idea for differentiating various pulmonary cavities to guide clinical treatment.

Red cell concentrates (Hct≥90%) weresuspended in SAGS medium(RCS.contain-ing sodium chloride,adenine,glucose,sucrose),and in H(?)gman's SAGM me-dium (containing sodium chloride,adenine,glucose,mannitol).Both were stored at4?2℃ for 35 days and compared withbiochemical tests.The results of posttrans-fusion survival,ATP,2,3-DPG,pH,K~+ tests between the two preparationswere similar,and the mean values ofinvitro hemolysis of SAGS-RCS was signi-ficantly lower than that of SAGM-RCS,i。e.1.71?0.95g/L and 3.10?0.19g/L res-pectively (P

OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of biological activity of tumstatin 7 peptide (CNYYSNS) on the cell proliferation and apoptosis of B16 melanoma cell. METHODS: The inhibitory effect of tumstatin 7 peptide on the proliferation of B16 cell was observed by MTT and cell growth curves. The influence of tumstatin 7 peptide on morphology of B16 cell was perceived by TUNEL, HE staining and the transmission electron microscope(TEM). Human umbilical vein endothelial cell (ECV304) as control cell was detected that tumstatin 7 peptide affected the proliferation of non-tumor cells. RESULTS: Tumstatin 7 peptide can significantly inhibit the proliferation of B16 cell in dose-and time-dependent manner. Its IC50 was 8.53 × 10-5 mol·L-1. The mophology of B16 cell was obviously changed by means of TUNEL assay, HE staining and TEM. They appeared karyopyknosis and apoptotic bodies. The apoptosis rate of B16 cell was 68.45%. The effect of 7peptide on human endothelial cell was weak, its IC50 was 5.78 × 10-4mol·L-1. CONCLUSION: Tumstatin 7 peptide can inhibit the proliferation of B16 cell and promote B16 cell apoptosis. It has little effect on endothelial cell, which revealed 7 peptide having a certain specificity of anti-tumor. It will be of great potential value to melanoma treatment.

Objective To study the efficacy and side effects of Ganciclovir combined with L-ornithine-L-aspartate on infant cytomegalovirus(CMV) hepatitis.Methods Sixty infants with CMV hepatitis hospitalized in our hospital from Dec.2009 to Dec.2010 were treated with ganciclovir combined with L-ornithine-L- aspartate.The parameters observed in the study included the pre-and post-treatment data on total Bilirubin (TBIL),alanine aminotransferase (ALT),alkaline Phosphatase (AKP)and the retraction of liver and spleen,as well as the adverse reactions of the treatment.Results The treatment significantly decreased serum TBIL (t =5.74,P ＜ 0.05 ),ALT( t =2.92,P ＜ 0.05 ) and liver( t =8.27 P ＜ 0.05 ) and spleen volume ( t =5.03,P ＜0.05).However,side effects such as liver damage and rash occurred occasionally during the ganciclovir treatment.Intravenous infusion of L-omithine-L-aspartate caused side effects such as vomiting and other mild gastrointestinal reactions.Conclusion The treatment of Ganciclovir combined with L-ornithine-L-aspartate on infant cytomegalovirus hepatitis created good efficacy and can be considered as the first treatment choice.Though it is relatively safe,adverse reactions should be monitored during the treatment.

Objective To discuss the clinical significance of fetal encephalic accumulated fluid revealed by prenatal ultrasonography.Methods Prenatal ultrasonography was performed on 8426 women at more than 20 weeks' gestation.Totally 150 women with fetal encephalic accumulated fluid more than 5 mm were included in this study.The changes of fetal encephalie accumulated fluid and the associated anomalies were observed regularly every 2 weeks until delivery.The live infants were followed up regularly.Results The incidence of fetal encephalic fluid was 1.8%,including 72 cases with fluid in the fetal anterior or posterior cornu of unilateral ventricle,46 cases with accumulated fluid in fetal posterior fossa,32 cases with fluid in more than 2 sites.Generally,the accumulated fluid in fetal encephalus was first diagnosed at 17-40 gestational weeks,with a median of(26?5)weeks.Most of them were found between 29-32 gestational weeks(63 cases,42.0%),and the maximum amount of accumulated fluid was also found between 29-32 weeks(70 cases,46.7%).Spontaneous regression of intracranial fluid could be seen in 111 fetuses (74.0%).The period of fluid regression ranged from 29 to 40 weeks of gestation,of which the average gestational week was(36?2)weeks.Additionally,the most frequent period of regression was in the first two thirds of the three trimesters of pregnancy.The incidence of defected infants was 3.8%,10.2% and 67.4%,respectively,when the amount of accumulated fluid was less than 10mm,10-14 mm and more than 15 mm.And the accumulated fluid in more than 2 sites was also a risk factor of defected fetuses,with an incidence of 60.0%.Conclusions Most cases could be diagnosed between 29-32 gestational weeks, and the maximum amount of accumulated fluid is also observed in this period.The more fluid in fetal encephalus,the more sites the fluid distributed in,the more defected fetuses or infants would be observed.So in cases of more than 15 mm of fluid,or accumulated fluid in more than 2 sites,anomalies should be observed extremely carefully.

To assess the efficiency and reliability safety of ganciclovir to herpes simplex virus keratitis.
●METHODS: All of the randomized controlled trials for the study of ganciclovir versus acyclovir in the treatment of herpes simplex virus keratitis were collected from Cochrane Library, EMbase, PubMed, Chinese Bio -medicine Database, China Journal Full-text Database, VlP Database and WanFang Database. Then the data were extracted and evaluated by two reviewers independently. Risk of bias assessment was evaluated by a tool recommended by Cochrane Library. Revman 5. 0 software was used for statistical analysis.
●RESULTS: Finally, 14 randomized controlled trials were included, 4820 patients totally. Subgroups were used according to the number of patients and diseased eyes as well as the difference of follow-up time. For and relapse rate, ganciclovir group was overmatch acyclovir group. There were statistical differences between the two groups [RR= 1. 22, 95%CI (1. 10-1. 36); OR = 4. 50, 95% CI (2. 02-10. 04); RR = 0. 23, 95% CI (0. 10-0. 52)]. Compared with acyclovir, ganciclovir had less side - effect. There were statistical differences between the two groups [RR = 0. 12, 95%CI (0. 03 - 0. 46)]. All of the side effects of the two groups can be relieved by themselves.
● CONCLUSlON: Current evidence suggests that the ganciclovir is more efficient and safe than acyclovir in the treatment of herpes simplex virus keratitis.

Best vitelliform macular dystrophy ( BVMD ) is an autosomal dominant disease mostly caused by mutations in BEST1 gene. These mutations change the normal physiological functions of BEST1-encoded bestrophin-1 protein, and finally lead to a reduction of visual acuity. This review is composed of the following aspects: the structure and functions of BEST1 gene, the characteristics of the mutations, clinical features of BVMD, genotype-phenotype correlations as well as possible gene therapy. Our contribution serves for further research on BVMD and BEST1 gene.
