Objective To discuss treatment effect of ritodrine and ambroxol on acceleration of fetal lung maturation,reduction of asphyxia of premature infants in premature women,and nursing. Methods 218 pregnant woman with premature delivery were divided into the treatment group (110 cases) and the control group ( 108 cases)stochastically.The treatment group adopted ritodrine and ambroxol,the control group adopted routine method.The curative effect was compared between two groups. Results The prolonged pregnancy time,rate of term labor,rate of newborn body weight ＞2500 g,incidence rate of puerperal infection,rate of neonatal pneumonia in the treatment group were better than those of the control group. Conclusions Appli cation of ritodrine in treating premature delivery proved to be safe and effective.For premature infants ＜ 34 weeks,prenatal use of ambroxol may promote the fetal lung maturity and reducecomplication rate of mothers and infants.

Objective To explore curative effect of intraperitoneal chemotherapy to treat patients with tension ascites caused by advanced stage of liver cancer. Methods 61 patients with tension ascites caused by advanced stage of liver cancer were divided randomly into three groups, patients in group A (n=26) were treated by ultrafiltration ascites and peritoneal reinfusion (A-P) combined with intraperitoneal chemotherapy; patients in B group (n=18) were treated by paracentesis and intravenous albumin infusion combined with intraperitoneal chemotherapy; patients in group C (n=17) were treated by paracentesis and intravenous albumin infusion. Clinical situation, biochemical alteration, sodium metabolism and RAAS metabolism were observed before and after treatment.Results The findings revealed that definite clinical amelioration in all patients. Patients in three groups, biochemical examinations were improved during 24h after treatment, including of endogenous creatinine clearance rate and urine sodium output. But in group B and C, the biochemical examinations returned to the former levels and the levels of serum albumin was markedly reduced during 72h after treatment. The short-term effective rate on postoperative ascites in group A, B, C were 57.7%, 44.4% and 11.9% respectively.Conclusion A-P associated with intraperitoneal chemotherapy is an effective and safe therapy for patients with tension ascites caused by advanced stage of liver cancer.

9β,11β-Epoxypregn-4-ene-17α,21-diol-3,20-dione 21-acetate (Ⅰ) is a substrate for the production of 9β,11β-Epoxypregn-1,4-diene-17α,21-diol-3,20-dione (Ⅳ),which is a key precursor for the production of many 9-fluoro-substituted corticosteroid hormones.By comparing whole cells catalysis and cellular lysates conversion,it was found that whole cells of Mycobacterium sp.MS136 could only convert Ⅰ to 9β,11β-Epoxypregn-4-ene-17α,21-diol-3,20-dione (Ⅱ),and Ⅰ can be effectively converted toⅣ by cellular lysates.The reaction order is that Ⅰ is spontaneously hydrolyzed to Ⅱ and Ⅱ undergoes C1,2-dehydrogenation reaction to Ⅳ.In order to improve the productivity of Ⅳ,the key genes kstD,kstD3 and kstDM encoding C1,2-dehydrogenase (KSTD) were overexpressed in Mycobacterium sp.MS136 to enhance the C1,2-dehydrogenation reaction rate,and the results showed that 1 g/L substrate Ⅰ can be converted by recombinant strain MS136-kstDM cellular lysates at pH 7.0,the productivity of Ⅳ reached 78.4％ after 45 h,which is 38.9％ higher than original strain.The reaction rate is enhanced by optimizing the pH,and the results showed that 1 g/L substrate (Ⅰ) can be converted by recombinant strain MS136-kstDM cellular lysates at pH 7.5,the productivity of Ⅳreached 92.8％ after 45 h,which was 63.4％ higher than original strain.

Objective: To investigate the effect of recombinant human growth hormone(rhGH) in the treatment of liver cirrhosis with hypoproteinemia. Methods: 28 patients with liver cirrhosis,whose albumin level was below 35 g/L,were randomly divided into two groups:rhGH treatment group and control group.Serum albumin,ALT and other items were measured 30,60 and 90 days after the start of treatment. Results: After 30 days,an increase in plasma albumin was observed in the two groups,but the change in the treatment group was more obvious than that in control group,An increase in plasma protein in treatment group and the decrease in control group were observed with significant difference between groups. Conclusion: Recombinant human growth hormone can increase the level of ambumin in liver cirrhosis patients and improve the function of liver.

Objective To study the incidence of PTEN, p53 and Ki-67 expression in astrocytoma and show the relationship between PTEN, p53 expression and the proliferation activity. Methods The surgical specimens from 68 brain astrocytoma patients were analysed to detect PTEN, p53 and Ki-67 expression with immunohistochemical method. Results The incidence of PTEN, p53 and Ki-67 expression was 54.4 %,45.6 % and 48.5 % respectively in astrocytoma. With the grade of astrocytoma increasing the levels of PTEN protein decreased, on the other hand the levels of p53, Ki-67 increased. There was a negative correlation between PTEN expression and grade of astrocytoma while there was a positive correlation between p53, Ki-67 expression and grade of astrocytoma by using the Spearman Correlation test to analyse the data. The incidence of Ki-67 positive expression was 24.3 % in 37 cases exhibiting PTEN positive staining, whereas the incidence of Ki-67 positive expression was 77.4 % in 31 cases exhibiting PTEN negative staining. In statistics, there was an inverse correlation between PTEN and Ki-67 expression. Conclusion There is an inverse correlation between histopathological grades of astrocytoma and PTEN expression. A positive correlation is found between p53, Ki-67 expression and histopathological grades of astrocytoma. PTEN can inhibit tumor cell proliferation in astrocytoma.

A rare case of anaplastic lymphoma kinase(ALK)-negative anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL)with generalized cutaneous involvement is reported in a 37-year-old man.Seven months prior to the presentation,he developed a goose egg-sized mass in his right thigh without obvious triggers,which gradually grew and no significant discomfort was felt.Diffuse and nonpitting edema gradually appeared in his right thigh and hip.Two months prior to the presentation,multiple dark red papules,nodules,and plaques emerged over the body surface with erosions and ulcers of varying size arising on some of the plaques.Laboratory examination revealed reduced albumin and significantly elevated lactate dehydrogenase in serum.B-mode sonography showed swelling and mutual fusion of superficial lymph nodes,and color Doppler flow imaging revealed markedly increased branch blood flow signals in lymph nodes.Computed tomography(CT)displayed generalized swelling of lymph nodes associated with soft-tissue edema in the right thigh and perineal region,as well as extensive enlargement of epigastric and mediastinal lymph nodes.Pathological examination of the skin lesion revealed a dense dermal infiltrate with mononuclear cells,some of which presented with cellular atypia and atypical nuclear division.Immunohistochemistry of the skin lesion showed that the mononuclear cells stained positive for CD3,CD8,CD30(80％ positive),CD4,CD45RO and granzyme B,but negative for CD56,ALK and T cell intracellular antigen-1(TIA-1).Pathology of lymph nodes indicated that the lymph node structure was completely destroyed with a diffuse growth of tumor cells,which were larger than common large cell lymphoma cells,and contained basophilic or bi-color abundant cytoplasm,deviating,horseshoe-,kidney-shaped,or lobulated cell nuclei,sparse nuclear chromatin and single or multiple small basophilic nucleoli.Angiogenesis,stromal fibrosis and infiltration of varying number of plasma cells and lymphocytes were seen in pathological lymphoid tissue.Immunohistochemistry of lymph nodes showed that the tumor cells stained positive for CD2,CD4,CD3,granzyme B,epithelial membrane antigen(EMA),Ki-67 and CD30,but negative for CD8,CD56,TIA-1 and ALK.The patient was diagnosed with ALK-negative primary systemic ALCL with extensive cutaneous involvement.

Objective To investigate the regulation of metabolize characteristic of some antibiotics in ACST in human bile, and provide the theoretic basis for physician selecting antibiotic rationally when biliary tract has been infected. Methods Samples of ACST in human bile were obtained by ERCP + ENBD, contents of Cefradine, Cefoperazone, Ceftriaxone, Ciprofloxacin and Lomefloxacin in human bile were simultaneously measured by HPLC method. Results After antibiotics were given through iv 0. 25 ～ 1. 5 hour, an increase was observed in contents of all antibiotics in bile, and the changes of Ceftriaxone and Ciprofloxa-cin were the most significant ( P <0.01). Ceftriaxone and Ciprofloxacin had a higher Cmax than other antibiotics, and Cefoperazone had a longer tl/2. Conclusion As maintaining a little time to tmax , a higher Cmax and a longer tl/2 in the bile by iv, Cefradine and Ciprofloxacin are recommended in the patient with ACST.

AIM: To investigate the therapeutic effect of tea polyphenols (TP) on cationic bovine serum albumin (C BSA) glomerulonephritis. METHODS: C BSA glomerulonephritic model was induced in rabbits. TP in three different doses (30, 100 and 300 mg?kg -1 ) was administered (ig) once daily for 14 days. RESULTS: TP not only significantly reduced the urinary protein excretion, decreased blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and plasma creatinine (Cr) levels, but also significantly relieved gloermular lesions in the rabbits treated and there was a significant dose dependent relationship between high dosage (300 mg?kg -1 ) and low dosage ( 30 mg?kg -1 ). CONCLUSION: TP can reduce proteinuria, suppress the development of glomerular impairments, and ameliorate the kidney function of rabbits with C BSA glomerulonephritis.

Epithelioid sarcoma is malignant tumor described by Enzinger, that is likely to be confused with a varety of benign and malignant conditions, especially a granulomatous process, a synovial sarcoma Or an ulerating squamous cell carcinoma. The tumor occurs chiefly in young adult and most commonly affects the soft tissue of the hand, the forearm and the pretibial region. The tumor is characteristically a slowly growing lesion but frequent recurrence is common and metastasis were most frequent in the lung. In this paper, we reported one case which is believed to be epithelioid sarcoma in the forearm.

Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) is a molecular genotyping method based on nucleotide sequencing. The procedure of this method characterizes isolates of bacterial species using the DNA sequencing of multiple housekeeping genes(usually seven). For each housekeeping gene, the different sequences present within a bacterial species are assigned as distinct alleles.For each isolate, the alleles at each of the loci define the allelic profile or sequence type (ST). MLST has the advantages of being robust (based on genetic data) and electronically portable to generate data that allow rapid and global comparisons between different laboratories. In this paper, the principle, method, data analysis, application, advantages and flaws of MLST are introduced.
