Methods A baseline investigative data from community intervention target population for cardiovascular disease in Liuzhou was used. There were 7 660 residents (male was 3 894,female was 3 766),average aged 40.5?12.2 years. Their height,weight,WC,blood pressure,fasting plasma lipid and fasting plasma glucose(FPG) were detected. By WC length,they were divided as M

Objective To study the regulation of quorum sensing molecule tyrosol and farnesol on biofilm formation of Candida albicans. Methods Candida albicans biofilms of clinic isolates and standard strain SC5314 were built when quorum sensing molecule existed. And inverted microscope was used to observe the morphology of C. albicans cells. RT-PCR and MTT assay were carried out to investigate the effect of quorum sensing molecule on expression of the two genes (HTA1 and EFG1) and cytoactive. Results Tyrosol could not promote hyphae development and cytoactive of C. albicans biofilms. The expression of HTA1 of C. albicans in biofilms was up-regulated by tyrosol but EFG1 was not. The inhibitory effect of farnesol on hyphae development, cytoactive and gene expression were not changed by addition of tyrosol. Conclusion Tyrosol can make C. albicans biofilms active in early stage. But when tyrosol and farnesol were simultaneously added, the effect of tyrosol were masked by farnesol. And C. albicans cells were more sensitive to farnesol than to tyrosol.

Objective To investigate the influence of remote care management on the diet compliance and disease recurrence of patients with pancreatitis. Methods Seventy-four simple pancreatitis patients in our hospital from January 2013 to March 2014 were involved and numbered according to the administration order and divided into the observation group and the control group according to the random number table with 37 cases in each group. The two groups accepted conventional health education during hospitalization time. The control group was given intensive classes after discharge, while the observation group received remote care management. Twelve months later, the rate of disease recurrence and diet compliance of the two groups were observed and compared. Results After the management, the observation group was superior to the control group in diet compliance. The rate of disease recurrence was significantly lower in the observation group than that of the control group (all P<0.05). Conclusion The remote care management can effectively improve the diet compliance of pancreatic patients, lower the recurrence rate, and have positive effect on prognosis.

Objective To study the effect and safety of intra-arterial thrombolysis combined with mechanical ad-juvant in the treatment of acute large artery occlusive infarction of anterior circulation and posterior circulation. Methods Fourty-tow patients were divided into anterior circulation group (24 cases) and posterior circulation group(18 cases). The recanalization rate, NIHSS score (National Institute of Health stroke scale), GCS score ( Glasgow coma score,GCS), BI ( Barthel Index) excellent rate, symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage rate and mortality was analyzed after intra-arterial thrombolysis combined with mechanical aids therapy. Results The anterior circulation group was mainly caused by car-diogenic embolism (15/24, 62.5%) and posterior circulation group was mainly caused by atherosclerosis thrombosis (5/18, 72.2%). The NIHSS score was significantly lower after treatment (8.3±4.9 vs. 8.1±5.7) than before treatment(15.1±5.3 vs. 16.8±7.8)(P=0.001 vs. P=0.001), the GCS score was significantly higher after treatment(13.9±4.4 vs. 12.8±4.2)than be-fore treatment(9.5 ± 3.8 vs. 9.6 ± 3.7)(P=0.001 vs. P=0.021). The symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage rate was signifi-cant higher in anterior circulation group (5/24, 20.8%) than in posterior circulation group (0,0%) (P<0.05). Compared with the anterior circulation group, the recanalization rate trended to increase in posterior circulation group (P=0.830).The symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage rate in anterior circulation group (5/24,20.8%) was significant higher than in pos-terior circulation group (0,0%) (P<0.05), the mortality was similar between these two groups. Conclusions Intra-arterial thrombolysis combined with mechanical adjuvant therapy can improve neurological deficit in acute large artery occlusive infarction and increase the recanalization rate,which is more suitable for the treatment of posterior circulation infarction.

Objective To detect the expression of osteopontin (OPN) in cervical local tissues of patients with chronic cervicitis, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN), cervical cancer. To investigate the possibility that OPN is used as tumor marker of cervical cancer. Methods The expression of OPN in 25 cases of chronic cervicitis, 18 cases of CIN and 21 cases of cervical cancer was detected by immuohistochemistry SP method. Results The positive expression rates of OPN in the chronic cervicitis, CIN and the cervical cancer had a rising trend (48 %, 77.78 % and 80.95 %, respectively) and their differences had statistical significant (P <0.05). The OPN expression level in cervical cancer had no statistical correlation with age, tumor size, clinical stage and other clinical pathological features (P >0.05). Although OPN expression level in cervical cancer wasn' t related with tumor clinical stage, positive expression rates of OPN had a gradually increased trend along with the clinical stage. Conclusion High expression of OPN is found in cervical cancer and may be related to the occurrence and development of cervical cancer.

Objective To establish a biotin-streptavidin ELISA method to measure CTGF,and evaluate the clinical value of CTGF for the diagnosis of liver fibrosis in chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients.Methods Biotinylated anti-CTGF polyclonal antibody and monoclonal antibodies were prepared for the establishment of this biotin-streptavidin ELISA method.Two hundreds and sixty-four CHB patients were subjected into non-or mild liver fibrosis group (S0-S1,108 cases) and severe liver fibrosis group (S2-S4,156 cases),according to the liver biopsy pathological diagnosis.The CTGF assay's diagnostic capacity for CHB was assessed by comparing the area under ROC (AUC) with that of a panel of hepatic fibrosis markers ( HA,PC Ⅲ,C Ⅳ,LN and APRI).Analysis of variance and rank sum test were performed to carry out comparisons between multiple groups.Student's t-test and Mann-Whitney U test were performed for the pairwise comparison between multiple samples.Spearman rank correlation test was performed to analyze the correlation between different hepatic fibrosis stages.Results The minimum detectable dose and detection rang of the ELISA was 0.2 μg/L and 0-64 μg/L respectively.The intra-assay and inter-assay CV at high and low level were 4.5％,9.8％ and 10.1％,12.8％ respectively.Serum CTGF concentrations in S0-S1 group and S2-S4 group were 6.7(3.1 - 10.1 ) μg/L and 16.1 ( 11.8 -27.2) μg/L,with a statistically significant difference (U =1 217,P ＜0.001 ).There was a significant correlation between the levels of serum CTGF and fibrosis stages ( r =0.689,P ＜ 0.001 ),AUC of CTGF was 0.841 (95％ CI:0.762 - 0.920) in distinguishing mild fibrosis from significant fibrosis.When the cut-off value of CTGF was 10.3 μg/L,the sensitivity and specification was 70.5％ and 82.4％ respectively.The sensitivity of parallel combination test of CTGF and APRI was 96.1％,which was higher than that of HA (75.6％),PC Ⅲ (70.5％ ),C Ⅳ(63.6％),LN(79.5％ ),APRI(86.3％ ).The specificity of the combination test was 65.5％,which was lower than of above liver fibrosis markers [HA ( 72.5％ ),PC Ⅲ ( 76.5％ ),C Ⅳ ( 78.4％ )].The specificity of serial combination test of CTGF and PC Ⅲ was 95.9％,which was higher than that of HA,PC Ⅲ,CⅣ,LN(64.7％ ),APRI(66.1％ ),however,the sensitivity of the combination test was 67.7％,which was lower than that of above HA,PC Ⅲ,and APRI.Conclusions The biotin-streptavidin ELISA method measuring serum CTGF has a high minimu detectable dose sensitivity,and specificity.Serum CTGF level is significantly correlated with fibrosis stage,and CTGF maybe a valuable marker for liver fibrosis assessment.The paralledl combination of CTGF and APRI could be used as screening for significant liver fibrosis markers.The serial combination of CTGF and PC Ⅲ may be considered as a confirmatory diagnostic marker for liver fibrosis.

Objective To explore the spread patterns of retropharyngeal lymph node (RLN) metastasis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Methods From July 2003 to March 2005, three hundred and three patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma in initial treatment were enrolled in this study. All patients underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) before treatment, meanwhile measured the minimal and maximal axial diameters, the longitudinal diameter and the central and craniocaudad locations of each positive RLN. Results A total number of 264 positive RLN were found in 177 patients. The minimal and maximal axial diameters and longitudinal diameter of positive RLN were 9.9, 12.9 and 22.4 mm, respectively. Ipsilateral metastatic RLN were noted as follows: two nodes in 21 patients, three nodes in 3 patients and four nodes in 1 patient. According to the longitudinal central location of 263 positive lateral RLN, the numbers of nodes at occipital bone, C1, C1/C2, C2, C2/C3 and C3 were 27, 166, 40, 23, 5 and 2, respectively; the mean minimal axial diameters of nodes were 6.8, 9.9, 12.5, 10.4, 9.3 and 8.0 mm, respectively. Conclusion Multiple metastatic ipsilateral RLN are not common in NPC. The rate of RLN metastasis shows the trend of decreasing from vertebral C1 to C3.The maximal diameters of RLN are in the C1/C2 intervertebral space, and reveal a decreasing frequency along the craniocaudal directions of occipital and vertebral C1.
