Inhibitor of DNA binding 1 (ID1) has an aberrantly high expression in multiple cancer tissues, including colon cancer, lung cancer, breast cancer, and so on, which is closely related to cancer aggressiveness and poor clinical outcomes in cancer patients. It has been reported that ID1 maintains colorectal cancer cells (CRCs) stemness traits and contributes to the CRC drug resistance. While, the biological molecular mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. In this research, we found that ID1 upregulates octamer binding transcription factor (OCT4) protein level as well as OCT4 signaling pathway

Corticosteroids,anti-vascular endothelial growth factor,antibiotics and antiviral were the main 4 classes of drugs for intravitreal injection.Depending on the class and volume of medication,age and gender of patients,ocular axial lengths or vitreous humour reflux,intraocular pressure (IOP) can be elevated transiently or persistently after intravitreal injection.Transient IOP elevation occurred in 2 weeks after intravitreal injection,and can be reduced to normal level for most patients.Only a small portion of such patients have very high IOP and need intervention measures such as anterior chamber puncture or lowering intraocular pressure by drugs.Long term IOP elevation is refers to persistent IOP increase after 2 weeks after intravitreal injection,and cause optic nerve irreversible damage and decline in the visual function of patients.Thus drug or surgical intervention need to be considered for those patients with high and long period of elevated IOP.Large-scale multicenter clinical trials need to be performed to evaluate the roles of the drug and patients factors for IOP of post-intravitreal injection,and to determine if it is necessary and how to use methods reducing IOP before intravitreal injection.

Objective To observe MSCT and clinical features in patients of laryngocarcinoma combined with other primary carcinomas. Methods Five patients of laryngeal cancer combined with multiple primary cancer were enrolled in the study. Three paitents had long-term smoking history more than 20 years. Three paitents had various degree of radiotherapy, chemotherapy and immunotherapy. The second primary cancer located in right upper lung lobe in 2 patients of synchronous cancer and 1 patient of metachronous cancer. The others located in soft palate, uvula and the left side of zone Ⅱ and zone Ⅳ in the neck, respectively. MSCT and clinical characteristics were analyzed. Results Five patients of multiple primary cancers included 2 patients of synchronous cancer and three patients of metachronous cancer. MSCT found the appearances of malignant tumors in various parts in all 5 patients and cervical lymph nodes metastasis in 2 patients. Conclusion The possibility of prime laryngocarcinoma combined with other primary cancers should be considered when other organ malignant tumor was detected in patients with laryngeal carcinoma, especially in patients with history of long-term smoking, radiotherapy and chemotherapy and immunotherapy. Long-term following-up of cervix and other organs should be taken for the postoperative patients of laryngocarcinoma.

6.The research of lymph node tumor diagnosis algorithm for lymphography based on Semi-Naive Bayes Classification model.
Journal of Biomedical Engineering 2014;31(3):499-501
Acquaintance of the lymph node is very important to evaluate whether the tumor is malignant or benign and therefore to the treatment of the tumors. Lymphography is now considered the gold standard for this purpose. Many computer aided diagnose (CAD) technologies have been developed to help radiologists to diagnose the tumor by the lymphography cases. In this paper, a computer aided diagnose model is constructed by Semi-naive Bayes Classification. The experiments carried out in our laboratory validated the Semi-Naive Bayes Classification on lymphography case. The result of experiments showed that Semi-Naive Bayes Classification could classify lymphography case effectively.

Objective: To investigate the loneliless situation of the elderly, and explore the relationship between loneliness,filial expectations and intergenerational social support among the elderly. Methods: Using UCLA Loneliness Scale, Intergenerational Social Support and Fealty Expectation Questionnaire, we investigated 423 samples of old people aged 60 ~94 of Changsha City. Results: The mean score of loneliness was 39.8 (s =7.3). Ordinal regression analysis indicated that the loneliness of the elderly was significantly related to received adult children social support (OR=2.208, P=0.006),afforded adult children social support(OR=2.056,P=0.01) and filial expectation(OR=1.872,P=0.027),controlled by age, sex, level of education, marriage, level of family income, and residence status. Filial expectation directly affected loneliness and indirectly affected loneliness through received adult children social support and afforded adult children social support. Conclusion: The loneliness of the elderly are significantly related to filial expectation and intergenerational support.

Objective To investigate the inactivating effect of heat and ultraviolet(UV) light on HCV JFH-1 strain using the cell culture system. Methods The HCV JFH-1 virus stock, with an initial titer of 2.5 × 104 FFU/ml, was exposed in 56℃ water bath or to UV light for varying durations of time for explo-ring their inactivating effects on the virus. The kinetics of virus titer reduction was determined by an indirect immuno-fluorescence assay (IFA). If the cells infected with the exposed virus stock were IFA negative after three blind passages, the virus stock was considered to be inactivated completely. Results After incubation of the HCV JFH-1 virus stock (2.5 × 104 FFU/ml)in 56℃ water bath for 10 min, 20 min and 30 min, the virus titers were reduced to 1.6 × 103 FFU/ml, 3.1 × 102 FFU/ml and 3.3 × 10 FFU/ml, respectively. The exposure of the virus stock to UV light (wavelength 253.7 nm, intensity ≥60 μW/cm2, 30 cm below the UV lamp) for 15 s, 30 s and 45 s resulted in virus fiter reduction to 1.0 × 103 FFU/ml, 1.1 × 102 FFU/ml and 2.7 × 10 FFU/ml, respectively. After 40 min incubation of the virus stock at 56℃, or 1 min exposure to UV light (wavelength 253.7 nm, intensity ≥60 μW/cm2) the virus infectious titer was reduced below the detection limit of IFA, and the IFA was still negative even after three blind passages, indicating that the virus was inactivated completely. Conclusion HCV is sensitive to heat and UV light treatment. For HCV JFH-1 virus stock containing 2.5 × 104 FFU/ml virus, heat treatment at 56℃ for 40 min, or UV light expo-sure at an intensity of ≥60 μW/cm2 for 1 min, resulting in complete virus inactivation.
