Objective To evaluate the value of real time three-dimensional ultrasound in differentiating benign and malignant breast tumors. Methods One hundred and fifty-three patients with breast tumors were examined with real time three-dimensional ultrasound. The results were compared with post-operative pathological results. Results A sign of malignancy on the coronal plane was observed by three-dimensional ultrasonography,named “sun-like symptom”,because the sign looked like a shining sun:striated hyperechoic or iso-echoic images scattered radially around cancers,together with the distortion of normal tissue.The accuracy of the sign in differentiating benign and malignant breast tumors was 86.93 %( 133/153 ), the sensitivity was 78.38 %( 58/74 ), and the specificity was 94.94 %( 75/79 ). Conclusions Real time three-dimensional ultrasound is a valuable and new technique in differentiating benign and malignant breast tumors.

23 cases were treated with immediate full denture.The second base-remodeling or re-prosthodontic treatment was given 3 months later based on the oral condition.Masticatory efficiency (ME)was measured at each stage.About 30% patients participated in the second base-remodeling procedure with ME of 52.63%.

Objective To identify the surface marker of bone marrow-derived liver stem cells and to isolate the stem cells, to investigate the differentiation of the stem cells. Methods The quantitative variations of the cells with stem cell surface markers, including ? 2-microglobulin negative (? 2m -), Thy-1 +,CD34 +,Flt-3 +,IL-3R +,and c-kit + markers, were detected by using flow cytometry in the bone marrow of several rat models with liver injury. Each stem cell population was then isolated using a magnetic bead cell-sorting procedure. The isolated cells were cultured in a system containing cholestatic serum and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF). The morphology of the cells was observed, and the expressions of albumin, AFP, and CK8/18 were detected with immunohistochemistry technique. Results ? 2m - cells elevated significantly in each of the rat models.After being co-cultured with cholestatic serum and HGF, ? 2m - cells showed multilateral transformation and resembled hepatcytes morphologically. The differentiated cells expressed albumin, AFP, and CK8/18, all known to be the characteristic markers of hepatocyte. The other cell population showed little quantitative changes, and did not express the same proteins. Conclusions The quantitative variation of ? 2m - cells corresponds to the severity of liver injury. ? 2m - cells have the ability to trans-differentiated into hepatocytes in vitro. They might be the marker of liver stem cells.

Objective To discuss the value of double-row allograft bone suture anchor in repair of rotator cuff injury. Methods Under assistance of arthroseope, 16 cases of rotator cuff lesions were repaired by using double-row allograft bone suture anchors. There were 10 males and 6 females at average age of 44 years (32-58 years). According to Bigliani classification, there were 6 cases of small ruptures, 8 medial ruptures and 2 large ruptures. After rotator cuff was trimmed and acromial bone was re-shaped under arthroscopy, 2 bone anchors attached to suture lines were implanted in the attachment point of rotate cuff of humerus greater tuberosity side by side. Then, the 4 ends of the 2 suture lines were vertically sutured through tendon of supraspinatus mnscle and tied separately, crossing the 4 ends of 2 knots and penetrated each 2 ends into one bone anchor. Finally, these 2 bone anchors were embedded into 2 predrilled bone holes which were parallel to the former 2 anchors and lower in humerus greater tuberosity. Thus, a web was formed and overlapped on the ruptured rotator cuff. The number of bone anchors was according to the size of rupture. Results All cases were followed up for average 14 months (6-23 months). The mean UCLA score was (21.30±5.6) points preoperatively and (32.4±5.8) points postoperatively. The function of shoulders recovered well, with no pain, recurrence or pulling out of bone anchor. Function was excellent in 10 cases, good in 5 and fair in 1. Conclusions As for repair of rotator cuff injury, double-row bone-anchors under arthroscope can provide a tendon-bone interface better suited for biologic healing of rotator cuff. Bone suture anchor can not leave any foreign object residual and costs less.

Objective To observe the safety of telbivudine (LdT) application throughout pregnancy in women with chronic hepatitis B (CHB),and to provide evidence-based treatment recommendations for women of childbearing age with chronic hepatitis B.Methods Women with hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection who took LdT before pregnancy and in early pregnancy were followed up prospectively for evaluating maternal and newborn adverse events.All newborns received block of HBV mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) after birth and were followed up for neonatal disorders and effects of maternal and child block.Results Among the 145 cases of pregnant women,143 were diagnosed as CHB and 2 decompensated cirrhosis.One hundred and five (72.4％) patients had HBV DNA＜500 copy/mL and 125 (86.0％) had positive hepatitis B e antigen.There were total 154 times pregnancies including 17 spontaneous abortions,4 ectopic gestation and 9 pregnancies after abortion.One hundred and one cases finished pregnancy,with 100 full term deliveries,1 preterm delivery and 2 twin pregnancies.One fetal with cleft lip and palate was aborted by induced labor in 24 weeks gestation.One baby was born with right double ears; one had benign lymph node under the left ear; and another one was diagnosed with congenital heart disease.Seven of the pregnant women had creatine kinase increased.Eight developed drug resistance.However,none had disease progression during pregnancy.None of the 63 infants was hepatitis B surface antigen positive over the 6 months of follow-up.The prevention of HBV MTCT was 100％ successful.Conclusion It is safe and effective for women with chronic HBV infection to receive LdT treatment throughout pregnancy.

Objective To investigate the plasma levels of tissue factor pathway inhibitor(TFPI)in children with Henoch-Schonlein purpura(HSP)and the changes of it after therapy with heparin.Methods Forty-six HSP children were enrolled in HSP group according to the criterion,and 23 normal healthy children as controls.The plasma levels of TFPI were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay in both groups.Forty-six HSP children were divided into 2 groups randomly:heparin therapy group(n=23)and conventional therapy group(n=23).The plasma levels of TFPI were measured before therapy,on the 7th day and the 14th day after therapy,respectively.Results 1.The plasma levels of TFPI in HSP group [(59.337?21.750)?g/L] significantly decreased than those of control group [(88.761?12.214)?g/L](t=7.185 P

Actinobacillus succinogenes A3 was mutagenized by ultra high hydrostatic pressure for improving the production ability of succinic acid.The effects of pressure,rate of pressure changes and growth periods on the lethality rate of the strain were investigated.The strain in stationary phase was mutagenized at 200 MPa with the pressure changes at the rate of 50 MPa/min.As a result,a mutation strain Actinobacillus succinogenes B19 was obtained,and the concentration of succinic acid could reach 32.2 g/L,which was 17.9%higher than that of the original strain,and in the meanwhile the concentration of acetic acid was decreased by 11.5%.After six generation,the mutant also has good stability of descendiblity for succinic acid production.

A rapid LAMP detection method with primers designed on genus-specific region identified in the gyrA gene was established in this assay. All four Campylobacter jejuni from different sources were detected positive and fourteen non Campylobacter bacteria were negative, which shows excellent specificity of the primers. Compared with plate count and PCR method, the LAMP method and the PCR method had equal sensitivity, which were three orders of magnitude higher than plate count. In this assay, we also found out that the treatment of DNase could reduce the dead bacteria DNA effectively. The LAMP detection on chicken indicated relatively good result on detection of Campylobacter jejuni combining with treatment of DNase.
