Purpose To explore the role of histone H2B monoubiquitination in primary colonic carcinoma and clinicopathological pa-rameters of colonic carcinoma. Methods To detecte the expression of histone H2B monoubiquitination in 116 cases of primary colonic carcinoma and 15 cases of normal colonic mucosal tissue by avidin-biotin-peroxidase complex ( ABC)-immunohistochemistry. Results The level of histone H2B monoubiquitination was significantly reduced in poorly differentiated colonic carcinoma 19. 4% (6/31) compared with that of well-differentiated colonic carcinoma 49. 4%(42/85), moderately differentiated colonic carcinoma 49. 4% (42/85) and normal colonic mucosal tissue 86. 7% (13/15) (P<0. 05). The expression of histone H2B monoubiquitination was closely correlated with tumor differentiation, Dukes stage, TNM stage and lymph node metastasis (P<0. 05), but not depended on sex or age (P>0. 05). Conclusion Histone H2B monoubiquitination is obviously associated with the progression of primary colonic carcinoma. Although its specific mechanism still remains unclear, histone H2B monoubiquitination could be a novel potential molecular marker for early diagnosis, clinic treatment and prognosis evaluation.

Objective To investigate the correlation between Epstein-Barrvirus (EBV) and H.pylori (Hp) infection and gastric cancer. Methods The EBV infection was examined by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and in situ hybridiza-tion (ISH) in 100 samples of gastric cancer tissue and 82 samples of gastritis tissue. The Hp infection was detected by PCR. The correlation between EBV and Hp infection and clinical and pathological features was analyzed in patients with gastric cancer. Results The positive rates of EBV and Hp were significantly higher in gastric cancer tissues than those in gastritis tissues (9.0%vs 0 and 56.0%vs 40.2%, P＜0.05). There was significantly higher infection rate in EBV in cardia gastric can-cer than that of gastric cancer (16.3%vs 2.0%,P＜0.05). There were significantly higher infection rates in EBV and Hp in poorly differentiated carcinoma than those of well-differentiated carcinoma (15.7%vs 2.0%and 66.7%vs 44.9%, P＜0.05). There were no significant differences in EBV and Hp infection between gender, age, nationality and lymph node metastasis (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in Hp infection between different parts of gastric cancer. There was no correla-tion between EBV and Hp infection in gastric cancer tissues (r=0.137, P>0.05). Conclusion EBV and Hp infection are two independent factors in the development of gastric cancer, and both of them are associated with the malignant evolution of gastric cancer.

Objective To compare the clinical efficacy and safety of continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) and multiple subcutaneous insulin injection (MSII) in elderly patients with severe type 2 diabetes.Methods Thirty-seven elderly patients with severe type 2 diabetes in the hospital intensive care unit (ICU) were divided into observation group (19 cases) and control group (18 cases) by random number table method.The observation group was treated with continuous subcutaneous insulin recombinant human insulin lispro injection,and control group was treated with recombinant human insulin lispro injection before meals and at bedtime routine insulin glargine subcutaneous injection.Two groups of patients and their families were given diabetes education.Changes in blood glucose,insulin dosage,blood glucose control standard time,rate of hypoglycemia and hospitalization time between 2 groups before and after treatment were compared.Results After treatment,fasting blood glucose in observation group was (7.2 ± 1.2) mmol/L,2 hour postprandial blood glucose was (9.4 ± 1.2) mmol/L,bedtime blood glucose was (9.4 ± 1.3) mmol/L; which in control group was (8.5 ± 3.0),(10.0 ± 2.4),(10.2 ± 2.4)mmol/L respectively.Fasting blood glucose,2 hour postprandial blood glucose and bedtime blood glucose significantly decreased after treatment in two groups,but there was significant difference between 2 groups (P ＜ 0.05).Blood glucose control standard time in observation group was (5.4 ± 2.5) d,insulin dosage was (43 ± 9) U/d,in control group was (12.8 ± 3.8) d,(55 ± 10) U/d respectively,and there was significant difference (P ＜ 0.05).Observation group had no hypoglycemia.Conclusion CSII for elderly patients with severe type 2 diabetes has better curative effect and security than MSII,and is more conducive to the control of blood glucose and the improvement of the condition.

Objective:To study the reliability, validity of PANSS(Chinese version) and its implication.Methods:105 schizophrenic patients were recruited and were evaluated using PANSS. The principle component analysis and reliability analysis were used to study the factor structure and internal reliability, homogeneity among items.Results:Factor analysis resulted in a five-factor: negative, positive, excitement-hostile, anxiety/depression, cognitive defect. The internal consistency reliability was 0.87 (Cronbach ?). The internal consistency reliability of the 5 dimensions ranged from 0.74～0.90.Conclusion:The structure, validity and reliability of PANSS (Chinese version) are acceptable. PANSS can be used to assess the symptoms of schizophrenia in Chinese patients.

Total body fat of 12 male adults were measured by ordinary and modified water displacement method repeatedly. The mean value was 9.37 kg calculated by ordinary method.It was significantly lower than that of 10.07 kg calculated by modified method (p

Objective To develop a diagnostic test based on indirect immunofluorescence assay(IFA) to detect special antibodies in the serum of SARS patients, thus to provide a reference material for confirmation of the clinical diagnosis of SARS. Methods SARS coronavirus GZ01 and BJ01 strains isolated in our laboratory were used to infect Vero E6 cells. When CPE reached 25%, cells were trypsinized and transferred to 10 well slides in a quantity of 40?l with a cell density of 2?10 7 /ml. After 4 hour incubation at 37℃,the slides were fixed with acetone, and IFA was used to detect antibodies in serum samples, which were obtained from 154 SARS patients and 14 non SARS patients with respiratory disease, as well as 100 healthy volunteers. Results IFA method for detecting antibodies of SARS coronavirus was developed. Sera from one hundred and forty two out of 154 clinically diagnosed patients were IFA positive, with a positive rate of 92 3%. Sera from 14 non SARS patients with respiratory disease and 100 healthy persons were all IFA negative. Conclusion The IFA method we developed was sensitive and specific in detecting SARS antibodies in serum, and was a reliable test for laboratory diagnosis of SARS coronavirus.

Objective o observe the therapeutic effects of suspension-assisted functional rehabilitation training of motor function for patients with cerebral infarction. Methods Ninety-six patients with cerebral infarction were divided randomly into a treatment group and a control group. All patients were given routine medical treatment and routine limb movement therapy. Those in the treatment group also used an electrically-driven suspension device to aid in their functional rehabilitation training. The patients were assessed with a simplified Fugl-Meyer Motor Functional Assessment (S-FMMFA), and using the Postural Assessment Scale for stroke patients ( PASS), the Barthel Index (BI) and the 6-minute walking distance test before and after treatment and at a 6-month foliowup. Results The average S-FMMFA, PASS, BI and the 6-minute walk results in the treatment group were all significantly better than those in the control group. Conclusions Suspension-assisted training can significantly help improve limb movement function and ADL performance in cerebral infarction patients.
