Objective To compare the bone status between Shanghai and Caucasian infants at birth by quantitative ultrasound (QUS) and evaluate its clinical application. Methods An ultrasound bone sonometer, Omnisense (Sunlight Medical Ltd, Israel), was used to measure the bone speed of sound (SOS) of tibia in 157 Shanghai infants, and then compared with those of Caucasian. Results No significant difference of SOS was found between male [n=88, (2968?115) m/s] and female infants [n = 69, (2956?105) m/s](P=0. 524). The SOS of premature infants [(2935?96) m/s] was lower than that of full-term infants [2984?116) m/s] (P = 0. 005). Comparing with Caucasian infants, the tibial SOS was lower in Shanghai infants. The differences of SOS, which were defined as Z-Score, in Shanghai infants were more remarkable in female infants (-0. 81?0.92 Z-Score) than that of male (-0. 55?0. 97 Z-Score), and in full-term infants ( -0. 80?1. 03 Z-Score)than in premature infants (-0. 50?0. 83 Z-Score) , and in infants with normal birth weight than in infants with lower birth weight. Conclusions QUS is suitable for evaluating bone status in infants. Shanghai infants have lower bone strength than Caucasian's and the difference becomes more significant in the last trimester.

AIM: To establish the determination of dihydromyricetin in stem,leaf of Ampelopsis grossedentata in different seasons from different habitat. METHODS : Novapak C_ 18 column (150mm?4.6mm,5?m) was selected as separation column at 25 ?C . Methanol-water-phosphoric acid (27∶73∶0.1) was used as a mobile phase at a flow rate of 1.0mL?min -1 . The peak of dihydromyricetin was detected at UV 290nm. RESULTS : The linearity of this method was good. The average recovery was 99.47%,RSD was 1.68%. The content of dihydromyricetin in leaf of Ampelopsis grossedentata collected in May was the highest and was three ～ four times the size of that in stem. CONCLUSIONS :The method is convient with a good separating degree and is useful basis for the develoment and utilization of Ampelopsis grossedentata.

Objectives To explore the nutritional status of fatty acids in the newborn and their mother, and the role of the placenta in fetal nutrition. Methods The composition of fatty acids in blood, placenta, and neonatal umbilical cord blood were determined and analyzed by gas chromatography in 20 normal pregnant women. Results In 20 pregnant women in the study, average age was 27.0±4.5 years, the average gestational age of their newborns was 38.0±3.0 weeks, the average birth weight of newborns was 3320±127 g. There were 18 types of fatty acids in maternal blood, umbilical cord and placenta, including saturated fatty acids, monounsaturated fatty acids, and polyunsaturated fatty acids. The total fatty acid content in maternal blood (3.51±0.57 g/L) was 5 times higher than that in umbilical cord blood (0.74±0.18 g/L), and there was statistically difference (P<0.05). The content of linoleic acid (LA) in maternal blood was higher than that in umbilical cord blood and placenta; the content of arachidonic acid (AA) and docosahexenoic acid (DHA) in placenta was significantly higher than that in maternal blood and umbilical cord blood; and the content of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) in umbilical cord blood was higher than that in maternal blood and placenta. All differences were significant (P<0.05). Conclusions Mothers preferentially transport long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (AA and DHA) through the placenta to meet the needs of fetal and neonatal growth and development.

Objective To evaluate the application value of inhibitor enhanced modified carbapenemase inactivation method (imCIM) in the detection of class B carbapenemase.The differences between imCIM and EDTA disc potentiation test (EDPT) were comparatively analyzed.Methods A total of 181 strains of carbapenem insensitive strains were collected,among which there were 44 strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae,44 strains of Escherichia coli,43 strains of Acinetobacter baumannii and 50 strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.The 83 strains of carbapenem-sensitive strains were composed of 25 strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae,16 strains of Escherichia coli,25 strains of Acinetobacter baumannii and 17 strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.The class B carbapenemase in the 264 strains of pathogenic bacteria was screened by imCIM and EDPT,and PCR results were used as gold standard.The statistical analysis wasperformed with consistency check,related-sample Wilcoxon signed rank sum test,independent samples Kruskal-Wallis H test and ROC curve.Results Among the 181 strains of carbapenem insensitive strains,PCR results of 144 strains were positive for drug resistance gene.The samples of class A,B and D of carbapenemase were 39,77 and 28 strains respectively.The results of imCIM showed that 70 strains were positive,and the other 111 strains were negative.The imCIM results of 166 strains were consistent with those of PCR.The results of EDPT showed that 72 strains were positive,and the other 109 strains were negative.The EDPT results of 134 strains were consistent with those of PCR.The results of PCR,EDPT and imCIM of 83 carbapenem sensitive strains were negative.The sensitivity and specificity of imCIM were 85.71％ (66/77) and 97.86％ (183/187),and the value of Kappa was 0.859.The sensitivity and specificity of EDPT were 66.23 ％ (51/77) and 88.77 ％ (166/187),and the value of Kappa was 0.561.The difference of inhibition zone of imCIM (AdimCIM) was different from EDPT(AdEDPr) and the difference was statistically significant (Z =-6.941,P ＜ 0.05).In the imCIM detection,the AdimciM level of class B carbapenemase showed different population distribution position from class A and D carbapenemase with the statistically significant difference (x2 =108.887,P ＜ 0.05).The areas under the ROC curve of imCIM and EDPTwere 0.988 (95％CI:0.977 to0.999) and0.936 (95％CI:0.909 to0.963),respectively.Conclusion imCIM should be accurate,efficient and convenient for screening of carbapenem phenotype for its high sensitivity and specificity,and suitable for epidemiological monitoring.

Objective To investigate the ultrasound characteristics of microinvasive breast carcinoma (MBC),and to improve its detection rate.Methods Sixty-five MBC,85 breast ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS)and 99 breast invasive ductal carcinoma(IDC)confirmed by pathology were divided into mass type and ductal type according to ultrasonic manifestaions,and the ultrasound characteristics were retrospectively analyzed.Results MBC showed 89.23%(58/65)mass type with 64 lesions and 10.77%(7/65)ductal type. DCIS showed 88.24% (75/85 )mass type with 78 lesions and 1 1 .76% (10/85 )ductal type.IDC group showed all mass type with 102 lesions.In MBC,most mass type lesions were solid and hypoechoic with a mean maximum diameter,which was larger than DCIS,but similar with IDC(P >0.05).More mass type lesions with irregular shape and calcification were found in MBC than in DCIS(P < 0.05 ),while similar with IDC(P >0.05).The detection rate of spiculate margin in mass type lesions of MBC was higher than DCIS(P <0.05),but lower than IDC(P <0.05).Less mass type lesions showed unclear border,high A/T ratio and hyperechoic halos in MBC than in IDC(P <0.05),but similar with DCIS(P >0.05).More ductal type lesions displayed indistinct duct wall in MBC than DCIS(P <0.05 ).Meanwhile,MBC had a higher detection rate of internal blood flow(grade 2-3)than DCIS.Conclusions There are more lesions with large diameter,irregular shape,short spiculate margin and calcification in MBC than DCIS.Compared with IDC, MBC lesions are atypical in spiculate margin,and less lesions show hyperechoic halos and high A/T ratio. To be familiar with ultrasound characteristics of MBC is significant for improving its ultrasound detection rate.

Objective To compare the therapeutic effects,toxic side effects of late-course three dimensional conformal radiotherapy plus chrono-chemotherapy(DDP+5-FU/CF) and conventional radiotherapy plus chemotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Methods Eighty-six NPC patients admitted from Feb. 2001 to Jan. 2002 were divided randomly into two groups:1.Chrono-chemotherapy + late course three dimensional conformal radiotherapy(CCR) group—44 patients were treated by late course three dimensional conformal radiotherapy plus chrono-chemotherapy, and 2.Routine-chemotherapy-radiotherapy (RCR) group—42 patients were treated by routine chemotherapy plus radiotherapy. The patients in CCR and RCR group were comparable in age, KPS, stage and pathology. All patients were treated by combined chemotherapy and radiotherapy, with chemotherapy stared 2 weeks ahead of radiotherapy. Chemotherapy: Braun pump was used in all drug infusions;1.CCR group—DDP 80?mg/m2 starting from 10:00 until 22:00,5-Fu 750?mg/d/m2 starting from 22:00 until 10:00 next day, CF 200?mg/d/m2 starting from 10:00 every day, infused at normal speed. These drugs were given for 3 days, 14 days as one cycle, totally 2 cycle, and 2.RCR group—with the same drugs at the same total dose, only with the difference being DDP and CF given QD, starting from 10:00 but at the normal speed. 5-Fu was given throughout the day and continuously for 3 days, totally for 2 cycles. Radiotherapy: linear accelerator irradiation was given to either group. Composite facio-cervical field + anterior cervical tangential field to D_T 40?Gy/4w, followed by the coned down per-auricular field plus anterior tangential field or ?beam irradiation. In CCR group, after D_T 40gy/4w, late course 3-dimensional conformal radiotherapy(3DCRT) was used to add D_T 30?Gy/3w. In RCR group, routine radiotherapy of 40?Gy/w was supplemented with 30?Gy/3w. The total dose in either group was 70?Gy/7w at the nasopharynx, D_T60-70?Gy/6-7w at the neck, as cure while 50?Gy/5w for prophylaxis. Results The CR and PR of the CCR group was 45.5% and 95.5%, while the CR and PR of RCR group was 23.8% and 71.4% respectively. There was significant difference between the two groups in CR and PR (P
