Objective To investigate the relationship between non muscle-invasive bladder can-cer and polymorphisms of DNA repair genes among Han nationality in Shanghai. Methods From January 2006 to June 2008, 94 patients with non muscle-invasive bladder cancer and 304 controls were enrolled. Known single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP) in the XPC, XPG, XRCC1 genes were detec-ted by TaqMan real-time PCR. After adjusted for age, sex, and smoking, interaction effects of the genotypes and non muscle-invasive bladder cancer risk, genotypes and clinical and pathological features of bladder cancer were analyzed using unconditional Logistic regression. Results After adjusted for age, sex, and smoking, the XPC 939 Lys/Gln, XPC 939Gin/Gin genotype and XPG 1104 Asp/His, XPG 1104 His/His genotype were more frequent in patients with non muscle-invasive bladder cancer, adjusted OR=1.89, 95%CI 1.14-3. 23 and OR=1.07,95%CI 0.86-1.87, respectively. The XRCC1 Arg399Gln polymorphisms were not significantly associated with non muscle-invasive bladder cancer, adjusted OR= 1.15, 95% CI 0.55-2.40. There were no significant associations between tumor clinical and pathological features in patients who possessed either the XPC or XPG polymor-phisms (P>0.05). Conclusion XPC Lys939Gln and XPG Asp1104His may modulate non muscle-invasive bladder cancer risk among Han nationality in Shanghai.

Abstract: Objective　To explore the correlation between monocyte to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (MHR) and insulin resistance (IR) in male patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) combined with metabolic-related fatty liver disease (MAFLD). Methods A total of 454 male patients with T2DM combined with MAFLD in National Metabolic Management Center (MMC) of the Affiliated Hospital of Jiangsu University from May 2018 to July 2020 were enrolled. The general clinical data of subjects were collected, blood routine and biochemical indexes were tested, homeostasis model insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) was calculated, visceral fat area (VFA) and subcutaneous fat area (SFA) were measured. Accordingtothe MHR quartile, patients were divided into group Q1 (MHR≤0.38), group Q2 (0.380.64) to compare the differences in measured indicators above. In addition, patients were divided into two groups according to HOMA-IR, HOMA-IR<2.5 and HOMA-IR≥2.5, and the differences in MHR were compared. Results The patients were divided into four groups according to MHR:group Q1 (n=115), group Q2 (n=110), group Q3 (n=120) and group Q4 (n=109). Fasting insulin (FINS) were respectively 6.17(4.20,9.76), 7.73(4.94,10.66), 8.92(5.32,11.33) and 9.13(5.25,12.27) mU/L, 2-hour postprandial insulin were 22.75(12.87,39.59), 27.55(16.44,39.77), 30.98(17.46,43.11) and 31.28(18.54,45.92) U/L. HOMA-IR were 3.12(1.63,4.25), 3.72(2.26,4.66), 3.87(2.48,5.44) and 3.95(2.42,5.31). Neutrophil (Neu) were 3.10(2.60,3.70), 3.20(2.50,3.93), 3.60(2.80,4.28), 4.20(3.30,5.00)×109/L. Subcutaneous fat area (SFA) were (181.27±53.60), (192.64±62.41), (199.53±61.40) and (203.69±71.51) cm2. They all increased gradually. However, the levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c) [1.18(1.06,1.35), 1.02(0.86,1.17), 0.96(0.80,1.03) and 0.80(0.69,0.92) mmol/L] and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c) [(3.00±0.79), (2.76±0.83), (2.67±0.85) and (2.59±0.92) mmol/L] decreased gradually. Pearson's or Spearman's correlation analysis showed that MHR was positively correlated with FINS, 2-hour postprandial insulin (2hINS), HOMA-IR, VFA and SFA (r=0.190, 0.153, 0.184, 0.114, 0.127, P<0.05). The coronary heart disease history, systolic blood pressure,diastolic blood pressure,fasting plasmaglucose (FPG), FINS, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), blood uric acid (Ur), body mass index (BMI), VFA, SFA and MHR of patients in group HOMA-IR≥2.5 were higher than group HOMA-IR<2.5 (P<0.05). Conclusion　MHR is positively correlated with IR in male patients with T2DM combined with MAFLD, and as MHR increases, the degree of IR is higher.

BACKGROUND:The homing ability of mesenchymal stem cells after transplantation can decrease along with culture and passage in vitro. And the decline of homing abilities can further influence the implantation of mesenchymal stem cells in the target tissue, thus seriously affecting the repair effect.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect and its related mechanisms by which in vitro culture and passage affect the homing ability of mesenchymal stem cells.
METHODS:Mesenchymal stem cells were isolated from the bone marrow using Ficol density gradient centrifugation, and then purified using adhesion method. The mesenchymal stem cells were cultured into the seventh generations with the normal cultural condition, and the morphological features of the 3rd, 5th and 7th generations of mesenchymal stem cells were observed. 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide chromatometry was used to detect the growth feature of the 3rd, 5th and 7th generations of mesenchymal stem cells, and the growth curve was drawn. Real-time PCR was used to detect the expression of CXCR4, CXCR6, CXCL12, CD44 in the 3rd, 5th and 7th generations of mesenchymal stem cells, 2-△△Ct was calculated to get the relative value of each target gene, and the differences in expression of CXCR4, CXCR6, CXCL12, CD44 between different generations were compared.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Mononuclear cells could be obtained from the bone marrow by using Ficol density gradient centrifugation. High-purity mesenchymal stem cells could be obtained using adherent method. The ability of in vitro growing was strong, but fol owing the passage, the cellmorphology became wider and shorter. And the proliferation rate, the overal proliferated multiple and the expression of homing related factors decreased fol owing the passage. The expression of CXCR4, CXCR6, CXCL12 and CD44 of mesenchymal stem cells decreased fol owing the passage. The homing ability of mesenchymal stem cells was decreased fol owing the passage, and may be relevant with the lower expression of CXCR4, CXCR6, CXCL12 and CD44 in cultured mesenchymal stem cells.

Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of ultrosonography-guided two-stage ERCP for management of emergent pancreatobiliary diseases during pregnancy.Methods The clinical data of 32 consecutive pregnant women with suspected emergent pancreatobiliary diseases,who were treated with two-stage ultrasonography-guided ERCP from January 2005 to May 2010,were analyzed retrospectively.All patients were treated with ERCP in two stages. In stage Ⅰ,all the patients underwent ultrasonographyguided biliary cannulation,sphincterotomy with small incision and plastic stent placement during pregnancy.In stage Ⅱ,routine ERCP was performed in two weeks after delivery.The success rate of first ERCP,relief of clinical manifestation,improvement of lab indices,maternal and fetal complications were evaluated.Results All patients presented with fever,biliary colic and jaundice.Abdominal ultrasonography or magnetic resonance cholagiopancreatography (MRCP) revealed dilated common bile duct (CBD) in all patients,with CBD stones in 24 and acute cholangitis in 8.Bile duct cannulation and stent placement were successful in all patients.All patients markedly improved after first ERCP,with laboratory indices significantly improved at 1week after the procedure ( P ＜ 0.01 ).In stage Ⅱ,CBD stones were retrieved in 24 patients under ERCP,including 2 cases of mechanical lithotripsy.Bile duct stenosis was found in 3 patients and plastic stents were replaced.Biliary bleeding occurred in 1 case,mild acute pancreatitis in another,with a complication rate at 6.25％.Patients and babies were followed up for 12 months and found to be healthy.Conclusion Twostage ultrosonography-guided ERCP is safe and effective for pregnant patients with emergent pancreatobiliary diseases,which might be regarded as the first choice for such patients to avoid radiation.

Objective To analyze the expression of molecular biological markers in patients with early stage adenocarcinoma of lung and to determine the correlation between combined expression and prognosis. Methods Pathologic specimens were collected from 68 patients of early stage adenocarcinoma of lung in our hospital between 2000 to 2002. A panel of molecular markers, including Ki-67, Her-2, P16, P53, VEGF, MMP-9 and CD44v6, were chosen for immunohistochemical analysis of the tumor. Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was used to ana-lyze the relationship between expression of these factors and prognosis. Results Muhivariable analysis demonstrated significantly elevated risk for the following molecular markers: P53 (RR=3.228,95.0% CI 1.331-7.828, P=0.010),MMP-9(RR=2.071,95.0% CI 1.062-4.036,P=0.033),VEGF (RR=2.577,95.0% CI 1.124-5.908, P=0.025). The survival period in the patients with combined expression was remarkably shortened. Conclusions Combined evaluation of P53, VEGF and MMP-9 has clinical significance to the prognosis of early stage adenocarcino-ma of lung.
