Objective To find out the iodine content in drinking water in Yi County,and to provide a scientific basis for prevention of iodine deficiency disorders.Methods An administrative village was taken as a unit in Yi County,Hebei Province.One drinking water sample was randomly selected from each village with centralized water supply.For villages with decentralized water supply,five drinking water samples were randomly selected according to directions (east,west,south,north and center) if there were more than five water sources in the village ; all the water source samples were taken if there were less than five water sources.Water iodine content of all of the water samples was tested; geomorphological feature,water type and well depth were surveyed.Water iodine content was determined through arsenic cerium catalytic spectrophotometric method.Results The range of water iodine content was 0.00-18.39 μg/L,and water iodine median was 2.08 μg/L in 1 024 water samples in the county.Water samples of 490,505 and 29 copies were collected in the hills,plains and mountains,and water iodine median was 1.74,2.26,3.15 μg/L,respectively.Concerning water iodine medians in drinking water,mountains were less than hills and plains(x2 =37.36,34.25,all P< 0.01),hills were less than (x2=15.27,P < 0.01).Water samples of 742,228,54 copies were collected,respectively,in household well water,tap water and mountain spring water,and water iodine median was 2.08,2.24 and 0.73 μg/L,respectively.There was no significant difference between the water iodine median in tap water and household well water (x2 =2.97,P > 0.05),and the iodine in mountain spring water was less than that of tap water and household well water (x2 =38.23,43.82,P < 0.01).Water samples of 583 and 441 copies were collected,respectively,in the well depth < 40 m and well depth ≥40 m,and water iodine median was 1.81 and 2.24 μg/L,respectively,and there was no significant difference between the water iodine median in the well depth < 40 m and well depth ≥40 m(x2 =2.32,P > 0.05).Conclusions Residents iodine content of drinking water in Yi County is lower; the natural environment is seriously iodine deficiency,and iodine supplementation should be strengthened.

Infant hair is a good medium to assess the cumulative exposure level of infant in the mother ' s body. Chlorinated persistent organic pollutants were ubiquitous and with the highest volume concentration in the human body. In this experiment, 20 infant hairs were collected from Beijing. The sample was overnight incubated in HCl, extracted with the mixture of hexane and dichloromethane, and cleaned up by a cartridge filled with alumina and acidified silica. The final eluate was concentrated, and 16 kinds of typical chlorinated persistent organic pollutants were detected with gas chromatography_high resolution mass spectrometry ( HRGC_MS). The results showed that the detection limit of the target compounds in sample was 1. 00-2. 50 μg/kg, the recovery of surrogate in all samples was more than 67 . 6%, and the range of recoveries for target compounds in spiked sample was 62. 5%-92. 3%. The positive rate is 100% for hexachlorobenzene,β_HCH and p, pˊ_DDE, 85% for γ_HCH, 50% for PCB28, and 40% for PCB52. The concentrations of Hexachlorobenzene, HCHs, DDTs and PCBs were 5. 48-8. 40 μg/kg, 3. 86-27. 1 μg/kg, 1. 16-18. 3 μg/kg and 2. 20-22. 1 μg/kg, respectively. The average concentrations were 7. 84 μg/kg for hexachlorobenzene, 6. 93 μg/kg for HCHs, 5. 53 μg/kg for DDTs, and 3. 44 μg/kg for PCBs. The method and the analysis results can be used to evaluate the accumulation level and cumulative exposure level of 16 target compounds for fetal in motherˊs body.

Objective To investigate the effect of Ser473-Akt phosphorylation in the protection of atorvastatin to cerebral ischemia-re-perfusion (I/R) injury in rats. Methods Forty male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into normal group (n=10), sham group (n=10), I/R group (n=10) and intervention group (n=10). A model of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion in rats was establishied, with ischemia for 2 hours and reperfusion for 72 hours. The normal group and the sham group received no injury. I/R group was administered with normal saline only, and the intervention group received atorvastatin 10 mg/kg prepared with normal saline at palinesthesia, 24 and 48 hours after reperfu-sion. All rats were sacrificed 72 hours after reperfusion. HE staining and TUNEL staining were performed in the brain specimens. The ex-pression of Akt and Ser473-Akt in the prefrontal cortex of the brain were detected with Western blotting. Results Compared with I/R group, 72 hours after reperfusion, the damage of nerve cells significantly lessened in the intervention group;the apoptosis positive cells significant-ly reduced in the intervention group (t=-6.014, P<0.001). The expression of Ser473-Akt in prefrontal cortex was higher in I/R group than in the normal group and the sham group (t>20.327, P<0.001), and was higher in the intervention group than in I/R group (t=3.649, P=0.007). Conclusion The Ser473-Akt phosphorylation plays an important role in the protection of atorvastatin in nerve cell through anti-apoptosis of nerve cells, and reducing cerebral I/R injury.

Objective To investigate the serum homocysteine (HCY)levels of patients with various liver diseases,and discuss the clinical value of combined detection of HCY and other liver function indicators in liver disease diagnosis.Methods Se-lected 123 cases of inpatients with different liver diseases (79 cases of male,44 cases of female),including 39 cases of chronic active hepatitis,52 cases of cirrhosis and 32 cases of primary hepatic cancer from Department of Gastroenterology,and 90 ca-ses of healthy persons as control group from Out-patient Health Examination Center of Shaanxi Provincial People’s Hospi-tal.Detected serum HCY and some indicators of liver function (TBIL,ALT,GGT and TBA)in different liver disease groups and normal control group with Roche MODUALR automatic biochemical analyzer,and did statistic analysis.Results The serum HCY levels of chronic active hepatitis,liver cirrhosis and primary hepatic cancer were 16.25± 3.98μmol/L,20.89± 4.26μmol/L and 22.92 ± 6.08μmol/L respectively,and significantly higher than those in normal control group (8.16 ± 4.03μmol/L,t=5.352~9.021,P<0.01).The serum HCY levels of liver cirrhosis and primary hepatic cancer group were higher than that of chronic active hepatitis group (P<0.05).Serum levels of HCY were obviously lower after treatment than that before treatment (P<0.05)for three groups of liver diseases.The positive rate of HCY was higher than those of other liver function indicators (P<0.05).Conclusion Serum homocysteine may be as one of the most important indexes of liver damage,and the combined detection of other liver function indicators may have important clinical value for liver disease diagnosis,differential diagnosis,treatment and prognosis.

Objective To establish serum NGAL reference range of healthy populations in Xi'an Area.Methods 2 665 cases (aged 6 to 95 years old,male 1 370,female 1 295) of health-check people were collected from March 2014 to October 2016 in Medical Examination Center of Shaanxi Provincial People's Hospital,and 682 cases (aged 0 to 6 years old,male 356,female 326) were collected from preschool children of prevention.Serum NGAL concentration of them were analysed by immunoturbidimetry method with the Automatic Biochemical Analysis Assembly Line of Beckman-AU5800,and the detection data for statistical analysis.Then established the reference range of serum NGAL population of different age and different sex in Xi'an.Results The serum NGAL levels in healthy subjects showed a skewed distribution,which were preschool children under 6 years of age 37.66±23.12 ng/ml,6~15 years 39.25±25.34 ng/ml,16~49 years 46.68±27.06 ng/ml,and 50~ 69 years 57.82±29.13 ng/ml.Compared the first two with the latter,there was a significant difference (t=0.589,P< 0.05).The serum NGAL levels of over 70 years were 61.87 ± 32.64 ng/ml,and there was a significant difference between the ages of 15 and 49 and over 70 years (t=8.529,P<0.01).At the same time,the serum NGAL was closely correlated with age (r=0.298,P<0.01).But there was no significant difference in serum NGAL level between male and female (t=0.263~0.542,all P>0.05).87ng/ml was the upper limit of the reference value for the age of 50 years.Conclusion The level of serum NGAL was related to age and increased with age,but not with gender.
