Many details concerning the interventional diagnosis and therapy of thyroid disease need to be studied deeply and carefully; for example, the thyroid applied anatomy, especially the anatomical imageology study of the thyroid arterial anastomosis involving the therapeutic effects and complications, the thyroid artery embolization treatment, presently as a substitution or the supplement therapy for the traditional classical therapy of Graves disease. There are many exploration to extend the indication scope, the therapeutic effect, embolization scope in intervention for Graves disease due to having no accurate individual quantification standard, and so on. The thyroid arterial embolization for Graves disease is to reduce the main cause of thyroxin secretion. Simultaneously, the comprehensive therapeutic effects might have possibly produce the thyroidcytic apoptosis and immune adjustments. Serious complications such as the cerebral infarction, the hyperthyroidism crisis, the hypocalcemia, the periodic paralysis, and so on commonly occured in thyroid arterial embolization. It is necessary to keep strictly the procedure rule and the indication. The mid-and long-term therapeutic effect of thyroid artery embolization for Graves disease is good, but still need more extensive and prudent research for the prospective achievement.

Objective The study is mainly on the effect and outcome of 131 I treatment for children and adolescents with differentiated thyroid cancer .Methods We compared the difference between rhTSH -aided ra-dioiodine treatment and L -thyroxin withdrawal .Our study collected 87 patients in a retrospective study .In order to analysis the effect,we divided into two groups.The experimental group has 46 patients,and control check has 41 patients.We compared the basic characteristics and mortality in different groups by χ2 -test,t-test and F-test based on data type .Results The thyroid stimulating hormone concentrations of experimental group patients have significant differences in the first ,the third and the sixth day after the injected of rhTSH ,the third day is the highest.The TSH concentration has significant difference between the two groups before 131I treatment(t=2.362, P=0.023).For the Tg(thyrobolulin)negative patients,Tg concentration in control check is higher than the third day after injected of rhTSH in the experiment group (1.5 ±1.2 vs.0.7 ±1.4,P=0.034).Whole body image has been done by scintigraphic after 3~8 months of 131I treatment.Thirty four(84%)patients have no radioiodine up-take in experiment group,and 40(87%)patients have no radioiodine uptake in control check ,there is no differ-ence between the two groups (χ2 =0.277,P=0.599).There is no difference between the two groups on the rea-son for retreatment(P=0.875).Conclusion The outcome of rhTSH -aided radioiodine treatment is similar to L-thyroxin withdrawal in short -term recurrences ,and rhTSH-aided radioiodine treatment with 131 I therapy for children and adolescents with DTC is a better method .

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the application of antibiotics and its trend for reference to clinical utilization.METHODS The data about antibiotics used from 2005 to 2007 were collected and analyzed.RESULTS The consumption of antibiotics was fallen year by year.The rate of utilization was 67%.The rate of drug combination was 45% and the rate of antibiotic resistance test was 20%.CONCLUSIONS There are still a lot of problems in antibiotics usage of our hospital.It is necessary to strengthen the guidance and supervision.

Objective To investigate the changes of the levels of high sensitivity reactive protein C (hsCRP), white blood cell (WBC) and fibrinogen (FIB) in type 2 diabetic patients with metabolic syndrom (MS). Method 323 inpatients with type 2 diabetes were divided into MS group and non-MS group according to their clinical dates, and the changes of the levels of hsCRP, WBC and FIB in the two groups and the relationship between their levels and MS were analyzed. Results Compared to non-MS group, the levels of hsCRP, WBC, FIB in MS group were increased obviously (P

OBJECTIVEThis study measures the glutaredoxin (Grx) gene and protein expression in umbilical vein endothelial cells upon exposure to Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The involvement of the Akt-signaling pathway is also determined.

METHODSEA-hy926 cells were pretreated with 1,000 ng · mL⁻¹ P. gingivalis LPS for 4, 12, 18, and 24 h, and then real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction was employed to detect Grx1 expression. The effect of Grx on Akt activity was investigated using Western blot for the control, LPS (1,000 ng · mL⁻¹ LPS), and carmus- tine (BCNU) groups (1,000 ng · mL⁻¹ LPS, and the EA-hy926 cells were pretreated with 25 μmol · ml⁻¹ BCNU for 30 min).

RESULTSGene expression of Grx1 significantly increased in LPS group compared with that in the control group. The Grx1 expression reached the peak level in 12 h, and the variation between the expression in 4 and 12 h was significant (P < 0.05). After 12 h, the protein levels of Grx and phosphorylated-Akt (p-Akt) significantly increased in the LPS group (P < 0.05), whereas the BCNU group showed a considerable decrease in both Grx and p-Akt expression levels (P < 0.05). Moreover, a slight difference was observed in the total Akt protein levels in the three groups (P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONGrx expression increased upon exposure of EA-hy926 cells to the LPS. Akt activity could be inhibited by BCNU (a Grx inhibitor), which indicated that Akt might act as a downstream regulator of Grx.

Objective:To provide policy recommendations for Beijing public health departments to grasp the dy-namic allocation of healthcare resources and the advantage of medical functional dispersal, and making appropriate health policies to rationally adjust the allocation of health resources. Methods:To study the dynamic function of Bei-jing medical, this study uses the method of accounting of cases summary of the annual report on health finance through the descriptive analysis of the gross fixed capital formation in various regional government-run health facili-ties. Results:The results of this study show that the quality of medical health administrative resources was higher, but effectively dispersed in 2015. By contrast, the basic public health resources allocation was unbalanced. Conclu-sion:This study puts forward the corresponding health policy suggestions. On one hand, it is important to make fur-ther policy to encourage high quality medical resources to be effectively relieved and the regional planning should be done according to market demand by avoiding the blind construction at the early stages. On the other hand, much at-tention should be paid on the balanced development of the basic public health service ability and the coordinated de-velopment of administrative capacity in health, and supporting policies should be formulated, which should rationally allocate the public health resources for a better overall medical functional dispersal.

Objective To construct a full-length cDNA library of human normal kidney tissues and identify the quality of the library. Methods By using the template-switching mechanism at 5′end of mRNA technique to construct the library, a powerscript reverse transcriptase was used to transcribe, and a 5′-oligo fragment as an extended template was added to 5′ end of mRNA to enrich full-length cDNAs. After amplification, the ds cDNAs digested by sfi I and size-fractionated by columns were recombined into ?TripIEx 2 vectors. After package, the recombinant vectors were titered and the recombinant rate (blue/white) was determined,then the library was amplified. We identified the library using PCR reaction to determine the size of the inserts. Results The titer of cDNA library was 2.6?10 6pfu?mL -1, the rate of recombinant was above 95%, and the titer of amplified library was 9?10 11pfu?mL -1. The insert size ranged from 0.7 to 2 kb. Conclusion The cDNA library of human normal kidne we constructed is a highly efficient one and can be used for screening by probe and antibody to find the genes related to kidney diseases.
