Objective To explore the correlation between resistins rs2161490and rs1423096 genotype with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM)in Guangdong.Methods Collected 178 blood of newly diagnosed T2DM in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from January 2015 to November 2015 as the patient group and 192 blood of healthy physi-cal examination as the control group.Analysis of the two groups of gene distribution frequency was to reach the genetic equi-librium,comparative two gene loci frequencies of resistin rs2161490 and rs1423096 in case group and control group was sta-tistically significant,and compared the distribution frequency of rs2161490 locus T→C and rs1423096 locus A→G between the patient group and the control group.Then made a logistic regression analysis:analysing the risk two loci each genotype of resistin rs2161490 and rs1423096 to T2DM,adjust of the gender and age,and the changes of the risk of the two variables. Comparative blood lipids biochemical indexes between case group and the control group,mode the correlation analysis be-tween TG,CHOL,HDL-C and LDL-C levels of serum lipids in patients with rs2161490 and rs1423096 each genotypewere performed.Results The sample was consistent with Weinberg Hardy’s law of inheritance,which was representative of the population,comparing two gene loci frequency of resistin rs2161490 and rs1423096 of case group and control group:com-parinng CT,TT,CC of rs2161490 genotype,there was no statistically significant difference (P=0.834,>0.05),and com-parinng AA,AG,GG of rs2161490 genotype,there was no statistically significant difference (P=0.960,>0.05).Each gen-otypes with T2DM risk analysis,there was no statistically significant difference(P>0.05).Adjusting the risk change after the two variables,gender and age,there was no statistically significant difference (P>0.05);TG,CHOL,HDL-C and LDL-C in each of the genes expression levels correlation analysis,there was no statistically significant difference (P>0.05).Con-clusion Analysis results showed that the frequency of two loci all genotypes in the case group and control group were no statistical significance (P>0.05).The risk of two loci gene type of rs2161490 with rs1423096 and type 2 diabetes were be-fore and after the covariate adjustment had no statistical significance (P>0.05 ).Each genotype of rs2161490 with rs1423096 and lipid levels had no statistical significance (P>0.05).Thus infer that two genotypes is not risk for type 2 dia-betes genes in guangdong area.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of VCA-IgA and multilayer enhanced spiral CT(MESCT) in the diagnosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.Methods Retrospective analysed the data on serum VCA-IgA test and MESCT of 385 patients with suspected nasopharyngeal disease,and the results were confirmed by surgery and pathology.Comparatively analysed the two methods in differential diagnosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma and benign diseases.Finally,calculated the sensivity,speficity,positive predictive value,negative predictive value and accuracy in diagnosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.Results The positive rate of serum VCA-IgA,MESCT and combination of those two methods in naospharyngeal carcinoma were significantly higher than those in nasopharyngeal benign disease(P<0.05);combination of the methods significantly improve the sensitivity and accuracy in diagnosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma,the specificity was lower than VCA-IgA,higher than MESCT alone.Conclusion Combination of serum VCA-IgA and MESCT were excellent strategy for diagnosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Objective:To develop an efficient and rapid method for the isolation and cultivation of human scalp dermal papilla cells from small specimens.Methods:Hair-bearing skin specimens measuring 0.5 cm × 0.5 cm -0.5 cm × 1 cm in size were obtained from the scalp of 3 patients with pigmented nevus and 6 with sebaceous nevus during surgery in Department of Dermatology, the First Hospital Affiliated to Army Medical University from September 2018 to January 2019. The subcutaneous fat layer containing hair follicles was cut out of the specimens, and hair follicles were sorted with ophthalmic forceps, which were subsequently digested with 0.6% dispase Ⅱ for 30 minutes, then with 0.2% collagenase Ⅳ at 37 ℃ for 30 - 60 minutes, and were centrifuged to obtain hair papillae. Morphological observation was performed on the isolated hair papillae, and dermal papilla cells were cultured, passaged and identified.Results:Under the microscope, the hair papillae isolated by two-step enzyme digestion of small scalp specimens were intact, and showed an inverted pear-like shape, and residual dermal sheaths could be observed around some hair papillae. However, no hair papilla was isolated by one-step enzyme digestion. With the two-step enzyme digestion method, the hair papilla separation rate was 60.8% ± 2.1%, the adherence rate of the dermal papilla cells at 72 hours was 86.6% ± 3.9%, the time for cells to emigrate out of hair papillae was 0.5 - 3.0 days, the total operation duration was 2.0 - 3.0 hours, and the actual operation duration after subtraction of digestion duration was 1.0 - 1.5 hours. The dermal papilla cells isolated by the two-step enzyme digestion method could grow in an aggregative pattern in early stage, but grew in a non-aggregative pattern after 8 passages.Conclusion:The two-step enzyme digestion of small specimens is a simple and efficient method for isolating human scalp dermal papilla cells.

In this paper a filtering method for EECG (Exercise ECG) signal is proposed which is based on wavelet transform (WT) and Stein's unbiased risk estimate (SURE). This algorithm was used to decompose original EECG signals into detail signals on different frequency bands by using WT and get different thresholds with SURE. According to EECG signal features and by using the above thresholds, the method amended several detail signals so that the main interferences in EECG signal can be removed efficiently. The authors also put forward two indexes to estimate the validity of such algorithms. Our experimental results demonstrate that this is an efficient de-noising method for EECG.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of 3D reconstruction in the single utility-port thoracoscopic segmentectomy of early stage NSCLC by propensity score matching (PSM). Methods We retrospectively analyzed clinical data of 150 early stage NSCLC patients undergoing single utility-port thoracoscopic segmentectomy. The patients were divided into reconstruction group (n=58) and non-reconstruction group (n=92) according to 3D reconstruction. PSM was performed on two groups to compare perioperative outcomes. Results Procedures were successfully completed on all patients, without perioperative death. In each group, 43 patients were successfully matched after PSM on the basis of 8 confounding factors, age, gender, smoking status, BMI, maximum tumor diameter on CT, tumor location, % FEV1 and type of planned segmentectomy. After PSM, in complex segmentectomy, the patients in the reconstruction group had shorter operation time (155.77±30.17 vs. 212.94±66.49min, P < 0.001) and less blood loss (46.00±25.94 vs. 88.79±68.36ml, P=0.002), compared with the non- reconstruction group. Conclusion Preoperative 3D reconstruction could help improve the efficiency of single utility-port thoracoscopic surgery for complex segmentectomy and reduce intraoperative bleeding.

Acute lung injury (ALI), as a common clinical emergency, is pulmonary edema and diffuse lung infiltration caused by inflammation. The lack of non-invasive alert strategy, resulting in failure to carry out preventive treatment, means high mortality and poor prognosis. Stimulator of interferon genes (STING) is a key molecular biomarker of innate immunity in response to inflammation, but there is still a lack of STING-targeted strategy. In this study, a novel STING-targeted PET tracer, [¹⁸F]FBTA, was labeled with high radiochemical yield (79.7 ± 4.3%) and molar activity (32.5 ± 2.9 GBq/μmol). We confirmed that [¹⁸F]FBTA has a strong STING binding affinity (K_d = 26.86 ± 6.79 nmol/L) and can be used for PET imaging in ALI mice to alert early lung inflammation and to assess the efficacy of drug therapy. Our STING-targeted strategy also reveals that [¹⁸F]FBTA can trace ALI before reaching the computed tomography (CT) diagnostic criteria, and demonstrates its better specificity and distribution than [¹⁸F]fluorodeoxyglucose ([¹⁸F]FDG).
