AIM:To introduce and evaluate two methods for sample size calculation in doseresponse research.METHODS:The methods used for sample size calculation in dose-response research include Cochran-Armitage trend(CAT) test proposed by Jun-mo Nam and the Unified contrast(CUC) method proposed by Chang. This paper takes the example of binary data,uses the two methods to calculate the required sample size and evaluate the power by simulation under the assumption that the response rate had a linear relationship with dosage under the logit scale.RESULTS:When the probability of response followed a linear trend on the logit scale, the sample sizes estimated from the two methods are approximately equal in various parameter's settings.The simulated power of CAT test was close to the expected one,however,the simulated power of CUC method was obviously affected by the values of contrast coefficient,if a contrast whose coefficients parallel the expected response, the CUC method was more powerful. CONCLUSION:When the probability of response follows a linear trend over dosage on the logit scale,the two methods reach almost the same result,in such circumstance,the Chang's unified contrast method will obtain an increasing power.

Objective To evaluate the clinical outcomes of external fixator with lumbopelvic distraction spondylodesis in treatment of vertically unstable pelvic fractures. Methods From January 2008 to March 2009, 9 patients (4 males and 5 females) with a vertically unstable pelvic fracture were treated with modular external fixator with lumbopelvic distraction spondylodesis. According to the classification of Tile, 9fractures were classified as type C. This fixation construct comprises a vertical lumbopelvic distraction component which fixed L4.5 and the posterior superior iliac spine and a transverse fixation which fixed anterior iliac spine with external fixator. Results All patients were followed up 12-18 months after surgery, with an average of 14.3 months. Postoperative X-ray showed satisfactory reduction of pelvic fracture. Pelvic fractures healed in all patients without loss of reduction 3-6 months after operation. According to Matta reduction evaluation criteria, 6 patients were excellent and 3 good. For the two patients with sacral neurological injuries,appropriate surgical decompression was performed to improve the symptom and minimize the deformity. No iatrogenic complications of neurovascular injury occurred. Patients now walk unassistedly without pain in the waist or legs, and with no shortening of lower limbs or claudication. By considering symptom and satisfactory scores, the Majeed functional assessment revealed that seven patients had excellent results and two good at one year. Conclusion External fixator with lumbopelvic distraction spondylodesis that allowed early mobilization and ambulation, with general applicability and definite safety, is an effective surgical technique for the treatment of vertically unstable pelvic fracture.

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical efficacy of acupuncture in treating Tourette's syndrome.MethodEighty patients were allocated, using a random number table, to a treatment group of 40 cases and a control group of 40 cases. The treatment group received acupuncture and the control group, Western drug treatment.ResultThe YGTSS score decreased significantly in the two groups of patients after treatment(P<0.01). After treatment, the range of decrease in the YGTSS tic score was larger in the treatment group than in the control group; there was a statistically significant difference (P<0.05). The total efficacy rate was higher in the treatment group than in the control group (P<0.05). The incidences of adverse reactions were significantly lower in the treatment group than in the control group.ConclusionThe effect and safety of treatment for Tourette's syndrome are higher in the treatment group than in the control group.

Objective To investigate the effects of the intracellular delivery of HPV16E7_(49-57) epi- tope modified by cell-penetrating peptide HIV-Tat_(49-57) and its influential factors.Methods The unique HLA-A2+/H-2kb+ limited CTL epitope of HPV16E7 fused with a cell-penetrating sequence (HIV-Tat_(49-57)) was designed and a 18-mer peptide was synthesized with aid of polypeptide solid phase synthesis technique. The intracellular transport capabilities of these peptides were tested with indirect immunofluorescence assay and laser confocal microscopy.In addition,the CTL epitope and 18-met peptide were used to stimulate PBMC of healthy C57BL/6 mice,and the E7_(49-57) specific CTL responses were measured by LDH cytotoxicity detection kit in PBMC of those mice.Results The HIV-Tat_(49-57) peptide could efficiently assist HPV 16E7_(49-57) peptide in penetrating into BHK cells in a time and dose-dependent manner (P<0.05).Further- more,the specific CTL activity induced by the 18-mer peptide was much stronger than that induced by the single epitope.Conclusion The results show that HIV-Tat_(49-57) can efficiently deliver the exogenous anti- genic peptide into the cytoplasm of live cells,and induce specific CTL response.This is a new way to de- sign peptide-based vaccine of HPV.

A multiplex real-time PCR was developed to detect ctxA of Vibrio cholerae, gyrB and tdh of Vibrio parahaemolyticus simultaneously. The multiplex real-time PCR were evalidated by detection for the three genes in 47 toxigenic V. cholerae O1 and O139 strains (ctxA+; O1=3, O139=44), 25 non-toxigenic V. cholerae strains (ctxA-; O1=12, O139=6, non-O1 and non-O139=7), 116 V. parahaemolyticus strains with or without tdh (73 or 43) and 9 other bacteria strains. The specificity and sensitivity of the multiplex real-time PCR in detection for the ctxA and the tdh genes in the strains tested were both 100.0%, compared to the results by routine PCRs. In the detection for V. parahaemolyticus specific gyrB using the multiplex real-time PCR, all of 116 V. parahaemolyticus strains were positive, and 9 other strains and 72 V. cholerae strains were all negative. The multiplex real-time PCR is a sensitive, specific and quick assay not only for detecting virulence genes of V. cholerae and V. parahaemolyticus but also for identifying V. parahaemolyticus at species level. In addition, two real-time PCRs for detection of V. parahaemolyticus virulence genes trh1 and trh2 were also developed.
