Serological typing for HLA-A, -B has been used for a long time. Recently with the developing of molecular biology technologies, HLA-A, -B typing is now turning to genotyping methods. In our study, the capacity of PCR-SSP in solving problems in HLA-A, -B typing with serological methes was evaluated. With this aim the serological method was compared with PCR-SSP in 102 cord blood samples, and the results showed that 18.6% of 102 cord blood samples can't give a satisfactory detection, for 14 samples, give discrepant results with the 2 methods. It is mainly due to weak expression of HLA class I cord blood lymphocytes and the cross reaction of some antigens. About B 15 group, the further study was made, it was found that most of the B 15 splits is wrongly disassigned, especially among the B62-B75, B75/*1511(+)-B75/*1511(-), B46-*1511 antigens. It was concluded that DNA typing is more preferable than serological typing, about B 15 group, the subtyping or high resolution typing can be fulfilled at first in China.

Objective:To describe the cancer incidences and mortalities in Henan cancer registries in 2013.Methods:Registration data were evaluated according to the criteria of quality control of cancer registry,and the qualified data were analyzed based on areas(urban/rural), gender,age and cancer sites.The age-standardized rates were applied according to Segi's population and the fifth Chinese population census in 2000.Results:The total coverage of population from 19 qualified cancer registries data was 16,225,815(15.13%),Among which,8,370, 772(51.59%)were males and 7,855,043(48.41%)were females;and 2,819,817(17.38%)live in urban areas and 13,405,998(82.62%) live in rural areas.The crude incidence rate in Henan was 250.34/105(males:264.35/105,females:235.42/105),whereas the age-standardized incidence rates by Chinese standard population and by world standard population were 208.66/105and 207.25/105,respectively.The cumulative incidence rate(0-74 years old)was 24.31%.The cancer mortality in Henan was 161.05/105(males:185.50/105,females:134.98/105),whereas the age-standardized mortality by Chinese standard population and by world standard population were 131.18/105and 131.52/105,respectively.The cumulative mortality rate(0-74 years old)was 15.05%.Cancer incidence and mortality rates were increasing by age, reaching the peak values at 80 age group and 85 plus age group,respectively.Lung cancer,gastric cancer,esophageal cancer,liver cancer and colorectal cancer were the most common cancers ranked by the incidence rate,and the most common cause of cancer death was lung cancer,followed by gastric cancer,esophageal cancer,liver cancer and colorectal cancer.Incidence rate and mortality rate of breast cancer ranked the first and the fifth among the females,respectively.Conclusion:Cancer incidence and mortality rates were higher in the rural areas and in males than in the urban areas and in females.Lung cancer,digestive system cancers,and female breast cancer are the major cancer types that require attention for the prevention and control in Henan.

AIMTo investigate the toxic response in auditory cortex of guinea pigs caused by cis-platinum (DDP), and the protective role of melatonin in this effect.

METHODSCis-platinum and melatonin were injected peritoneally. LDH, MDA, NO in the auditory cortex were detected by spectrophotometeR.

RESULTSThe body weight of the guinea pigs was diminished by peritoneal injection of Cis-platinum for 7 days (P < 0.01). Peritoneal injection of Cis-platinum induced the increased leakage of LDH (P < 0.05 vs injection of normal saline). This effect was reduced by injection of MT (P < 0.05). The content of MDA in the auditory cortex was also increased because of injection of Cis-platinumv for 7 days (P < 0.01) and MT reduced this effect (P < 0.05). The change of NO in the auditory cortex was not statistically significant after injection of Cis-platinum or Cis-platinum with MT.

CONCLUSIONPeritoneal injection of Cis-platinum could destroy neurons in the auditory cortex. This effect could be reduced by melatonin by an anti-free radials mechanism.

Objective: To investigate the incidence and survival of esophageal cancer with different histological types and to understand the incidence trend and burden of esophageal cancer in Linzhou during 2003-2012. Methods: All incidence records of esophageal cancer and population reported were collected from Linzhou Cancer Registry during 2003-2012. Incidence rate was calculated using gender and histological types. Age standardized incidence rate was calculated according to world Segi's population and Chinese census data in 2000. Age standardized incidence rate by world population between 2003 and 2012 was analyzed with JoinPoint regression model and estimated annual percentage change (EAPC) was calculated. 5-year survival rate was calculated with Kaplan-Meier model. Results: There were 8 229 esophageal cancer cases in Linzhou during 2003-2012. The average annual incidence rate was 80.08/100 000 (8 229/10 276 481). Among all esophageal cancer cases, 7 019 (85.3%) were diagnosed as esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). In Linzhou, the age standardized incidence rate by Chinese standard population and by world standard population was 80.92/100 000 and 81.85/100 000 in 2003, 67.97/100 000 and 68.63/100 000 in 2012. JoinPoint regression model showed that EAPC was-12.9% (95%CI:-16.4%--9.1%) for other and unspecified histological type between 2003 and 2012. The EAPC was-5.5% (95%CI:-9.2%--1.6%) for esophageal cancer between 2007 and 2012,-5.4% (95%CI:-7.0%--3.9%) for esophageal cancer in female between 2006 and 2012,-4.9% (95%CI:-9.5%--0.1%) for ESCC between 2007 and 2012. The 5-year prevalence of esophageal cancer was 215.49 per 100 000 (2 337/1 084 493), and 5 489 died within 5 years after incidence. 5-year survival rate of esophageal cancer was 34.6% (95%CI: 33.5%-35.6%). Conclusion Esophageal cancer had a decreasing trend in Linzhou. The survival rate was increasing. But, esophageal cancer was still a major burden in Linzhou. The major histological type was ESCC. ESCC had a similar decreasing trend with esophageal cancer.

Objective To investigate effects of thrombin on concentration of intracellular free calcium in primary cultured hippocampal neurons. Methods Calcium ion indicator Fura-2 fluorophotometry was used to measure concentration of Ca2 + of primary cultured hippocampal neurons treated by different doses of thrombin. Results 1-40 U/ml of thrombin increased the levels of free intracellular Ca2+ in primary cultured hippocampal neurons significantly in a dose-response manner. Thrombin receptor activating peptides (TRAP) mimiced thrombin to increase the intracellular free Ca2+ of neurons. Thrombin increased the rest [ Ca2 + ] i when hippocampal neurons were incubated in 1.3 mmol/L Ca2 + medium, did not elevated [ Ca2+ ]i when neurons incubated in 0.0 mmol/L Ca2+ medium. Increasing in intracellular free Ca2+ of neurons caused by thrombin was associated with large influx of Ca2+ outside cells. MK-801 inhibited the effect of thrombin on intracellular free Ca2 + of neurons. Conclusions Thrombin-increased intracellular free Ca2 + of neurons in a dose-dependent manner may be through activating PAR-1, which is associated with activating NMDA receptor to induce large influx of Ca2+ outside cells.

Objective To observe the effects of hyperbaric oxygen in the treatment of the rats with optic nerve crush. Methods In this study, 24 rats with traumatic optic nerve injury were recruited. The rats'left eyes were injured in the optic nerve and the right eyes as the controls were applied with sham-operation. The rats were divided into the treatment group and the control group in accordance with the random number table. The experimental group was treated with two-course hyperbaric oxygen one hour a day, 10 days a course. The control group breathed fresh air under standard atmospheric pressure. F-VEP was detected on day 3, 10, 20 during the experiment. Results In the control group, latency of F-VEP delayed (P＜0.05) and the amplitude of P100 decreased (P＜0.05) in the injured eye compared to the normal eye. In the experimental group, no obvious difference was found in the latency of F-VEP and the amplitude of P100 in the injured eye compared to the normal eye (P＞ 0.05) . The comparison of F-VEP data of the injured eyes showed that incubation period was in advance (P＜ 0.05) and amplitude increased (P＜0.05) in the experimental group. The comparison of F-VEP data tested at different time points was statistical significant. Conclusion The rat model of optic nerve injury was successful. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy showed no interference with the F-VEP data of the injured eye by causing no damage to the normal eye and was proved effective. Longer treatment provided better results.

Objective:To study the compliance of endoscopic screening for high-risk population of upper gastrointestinal cancer and relevant factors in urban areas of Henan Province, 2013-2017.Methods:The study participants were from the Cancer Screening Program in Urban Henan Province, China. From October 2013 to October 2017, 43 423 residents, who were evaluated as high-risk population for upper gastrointestinal cancer, were recruited from Zhengzhou, Zhumadian and Anyang. The cancer risk assessment questionnaire was used to collect basic demographic characteristics, dietary habits, living environment and habits, psychology and emotions, disease history and family history of cancer, and women's physiological and reproductive history. The data of endoscopic screening was obtained from hospitals participating in the Cancer Screening Program. Multivariate logistic regression model was applied to explore potential factors related to the compliance of endoscopic screening.Results:The age of study participants was(55.49±8.15) years old, and 44.00% (19 105) were male. About 18.41% of study subjects (7 996) took the endoscopic screening. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that females, individuals aged 45-64 years old, with junior high school education or above, unmarried/divorced/widowed, previous smoking, alcohol drinking, infrequent physical exercise, history of reflux esophagitis, history of superficial gastritis, history of gastric ulcer, history of duodenal ulcer, history of gastric polyps and family history of upper gastrointestinal cancer were more likely to accept endoscopic screening.Conclusion:The overall participation rate of endoscopic screening among high-risk population of upper gastrointestinal cancer was still low in urban areas of Henan Province. Gender, age, education, marital status, smoking, alcohol consumption, physical activity, history of upper gastrointestinal disease and family history of upper gastroin testinal cancer were associated with the compliance of endoscopic screening.

Objective:To analyze the effects of esophageal cancer screening in Henan rural areas with cancer screening program from 2014 to 2018.Methods:From July 2014 to June 2019, according to the National Early Diagnosis and Treatment of Upper Gastrointestinal Cancer in Rural Areas Project, cluster sampling method was adopted in 16 counties/county-level cities in rural areas with high incidence of esophageal cancer in Henan province. Endoscopic iodine staining and indicative biopsy were used to screen esophageal cancer. The patients with mild and moderate dysplasia confirmed in screening were followed up. The distribution of esophageal diseases in the screening population was calculated, and Chi-square test was used to compare the differences of detection rate and early diagnosis rate between the primary screening population and the follow-up population.Results:The age of 116 630 primary screening population was (54.29±7.70) years old, and the proportion of males was 41.2% (48 108). In the primary screening population, patients with normal esophagus, mild to moderate dysplasia, severe dysplasia and above accounted for 92.91% (108 363), 6.03% (7 035) and 1.06% (1 232), respectively. The detection rate of esophageal cancer was 1.06% (1 232/116 630), and the rate of early diagnosis was 85.80% (1 057). Among the follow-up population of 6 154 people, those with normal esophagus, mild to moderate dysplasia, severe dysplasia and above diseases accounted for 63.45% (3 905), 33.13% (1 519) and 3.41% (210), respectively. The detection rate of esophageal cancer was 3.41% (210/6 154), and the rate of early diagnosis was 91.90% (1 939). Compared with the primary screening population, the risk of esophageal cancer was higher in the overall follow-up population, people either with mild or with moderate dysplasia diagnosed in primary screening, with OR values (95 %CI) of 3.23 (2.78, 3.75), 1.85 (1.49, 2.29) and 8.13 (6.69, 9.88), respectively. Conclusion:From 2014 to 2018, in the early diagnosis and early treatment of upper digestive tract cancer project in rural areas of Henan Province, the detection rate of the follow-up population is significantly higher than that of the primary screening population. Improving follow-up rate and paying more attention to the screening of people who need follow-up could further improve the screening effect.
