Objective:To analyze the characteristic peaks of gypsum fibrosum from authentic product area Hubei Yingcheng via X-ray diffraction. Methods:The fingerprint and common peaks of gypsum fibrosum from different areas were analyzed via X-ray diffrac-tion, and the characteristic peaks of gypsum fibrosum from authentic product area Hubei Yingcheng were identified Results:The finger-prints of X-ray diffraction of gypsum fibrosum from different areas were obtalned. Sixteen common peaks were determined, and two characteristic peaks of gypsum fibrosum from authentic product area Yingcheng were determined via X-ray diffraction with interplanar spacing of 1. 68 and 1. 51, respectively. Conclusion:The determination of two characteristic peaks of gypsum fibrosum from authentic product area Hubei Yingcheng can distinguish gypsum fibrosum from the other areas and provide basis for the quality evaluation of gyp-sum fibrosum.

Background and purpose: MicroRNAs are 19–25-nucleotide noncoding RNA molecules that regulate gene expression at the level of transcription and translation. The study aimed to confirm whether miR-216a suppresses cell proliferation and invasion by targeting PRKCA, thus to reveal molecular mechanism that miR-216a functions as a tumor suppressor in glioma. Methods: PRKCA 3’ untranslated region (UTR)-luciferase vector was constructed and dual-luciferase reporter gene assay was employed to examine the effect of miR-216a on luciferase activity. U251 cells were transfected with miR-216a mimics, and next Western blotting was performed to detect the expression of PRKCA protein. The effects of PRKCA downregulation on cell proliferation and invasion were observed after PRKCA siRNA was transfected into U251 cells. U251 cell proliferation assays were performed when cotransfected with miR-216a mimics. Results:The result demonstrated miR-216a could bind to the 3’UTR of PRKCA and inhibited the luciferase activity by 41%. PRKCA protein expressions were significantly down-regulated when miR-216a was overexpressed in U251. siRNA-mediated downregulation of PRKCA could suppress the potentials of cell proliferation and invasion. Conclusion:miR-216a suppresses cell proliferation and invasion by targeting PRKCA in glioma.

Objective To study the clinical significance of changes of plasma nitric oxide (NO) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) levels in patients with congestive heart failure (CHF).Methods Plasma NO and TNF in 68 CHF cases were tested.30 healthy subjects served as normal controls.Results Plasma NO and TNF levels in CHF patients were obviously higher than those in normal subjects (P

Objective To evaluate the applicated value of color Doppler ultrasound in diagnosis for neck lymph node metastatic tumor.Methods A retrospective analysis of 53 cases with metastatic tumors in cervical lymph nodes of two-dimensional and color Doppler ultrasonography features was taken out.Results The color Doppler ultrasound on cervical lymph node metastasis tumor location,shape,size and internal structural characteristics were observed,it is found that the characteristic change,provide reliable evidence for the clinical diagnosis.Conclusion The color Doppler ultrasound to cervical lymph node metastatic tumor has a high diagnostic value,can be used as the cervical lymph node metastatic tumor imaging examination of choice.

Objective To investigate the expression of nerve growth factor(NGF)in the adrenaline medullary chromaffin cells(AMCC)and the morphological and functional changes in AMCC of asthmatic rats.Methods The 32 SD rats were randomly divided into two groups:control group(n=8)and asthma group(n=8).Asthma models were established by sensitization and challenge with ovalbumin(OVA).By means of immunohistochemistry(SP)combined with the micro-image analysis to investigate the alterations of NGF immunoreactivity in asthmatic rats and by means of light microscopy and electron microscopy to investigate the ultrastructural changes in AMCC,and detect the concentration of adrenaline and noradrenaline in serum by enzyme-linked- immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Results The positive immunoreactivity was increased in asthmatic AMCC compared with the controls(P

egrated interventional and minimally invasive therapy could improve the life and survival and it is an effective adjunctive therapy for primary hepatocellular carcinoma with metastasis outside the liver.

Objective To evaluate CT guided 125I seeds implantation for liver metastasis of colorectal cancer. Methods The retrospective analysis was undertaken in 15 colorectal cancer patients with 33 foci of hepatic metastases from Jul 2006 to Aug 2007, receiving CT guided 125I radioactive seeds implantation according to TPS or Halarism's experience function: mCi = Da × 5, Results All the patients were followed-up by CT scan after 3 months. There were 2 of complete remission (CR) , 10 of partial remission (PR), 3 of stable disease (SD). All patients are still alive now, the lougest follow-up time is 20 months, and the shortest is 6 months, the average followed span is 12 months. Conclusion CT guided 125I seeds implantation is a safe and effective method in the treatment of liver metastasis caused by colorectal cancer.

Objective To investigate the feasibility and efficacy of treating atrial fibrillation(AF)in beating heart surgery using bipolar Radiofrequency Ablation(RFA)system. Methods Treating AF in beating heart under normal temperature CBP surgery with bipolar RFA following the circuit of maze operation,2 - 6 times each place,until sinus rhythm appeared,then perform AVR or MVR in the stopped beating heart. Results All 18 cases survived the surgery. Sinus rhythm appeared in all cases. The average treating time was 28 minutes. Conclusions Application of bipolar RFA in the treatment of AF in beating heart is a safe and efficacy method. It is recommended to be applied widely.

Objective To study the multi-detector spiral CT (MDCT) features of pancreatic tuberculosis to improve the awareness and correct diagnosis. Methods Imaging features of MDCT were retrospectively reviewed on 9 cases with pancreatic tuberculosis that were diagnosed from 2003 to 2009, among them two patients underwent MDCT angiography, the features were compared with those of operative and pathological findings. Results One case of pancreatic cancer, 2 cases of cystadenocarcinoma and 1 case of pseudocyst, 2 cases of pancreatic cancer with retroperitoneal lymph node metastasis, 2 cases of lymphoma were diagnosed by MDCT, and all the lesions were diagnosed as pancreatic tuberculosis pathologically, and the misdiagnosis rate was 100%. Pancreatic tuberculosis often presented as pancreatic head mass, sometimes pancreatic body and tail were involved. MDCT showed isopycnic or low density solid-cyst mass, occasionally calcification was present, with slightly or moderate ring-like enhancement after contrast injection. There was no enlargement of the pancreatic duct. The retroperitoneal and adjacent lymph nodes were always enlarged with ring-like enhancement. Sometimes there was evidence of tuberculosis of other abdominal organs. Conclusions Ring-like enhanced lesions with ring-like enhanced lymph nodes without enlargement of pancreatic duct are characteristic MDCT features of pancreatic tuberculosis.
