Objective To explorethe relationship between serum uric acid (SUA ) and transcutaneousoxygenpressure(TcPO2)inpatientswithT2DM.Methods 622hospitalizedpatients with T2DM were recruited and divided into high SUA (HUA) group and normal SUA (T2DM) group.The differences in TcPO2 (initial value ,stable value ,initial value‐stable value ,leg‐raising initial value and leg‐raising maximum value)were compared between two groups.The correlations between SUA and TcPO2 were evaluated. Results The levels of TcPO2 were lower in HUA group than in T2DM group [initial value:left (34.05 ± 13.17) vs (39.26 ± 15.82) ,right (34.71 ± 14.90) vs (40.15 ± 16.23);stable value:left (38.93 ± 12.23) vs(45.19 ± 13.40) ,right (39.98 ± 12.34) vs (45.90 ± 16.77) ,P<0.05]. Pearson correlation analysis showed that the SUA levels negatively related with the stable TcPO2 value of leftor right side ,and with the change between the initial value and the stable value of TcPO2 (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The multiple linear regression analysis showed that SUA level was the impact factorof the left TcPO2 stable value. Conclusion HUA may be one of the risk factors microcirculation disorder in T2DM patients.

AIM: To study the role of scavenger receptor A(SR A) in the uptake of oxidized low density lipoprotein(OxLDL) in mouse peritoneal macrophages(MPM). METHODS: Comparing the difference of the uptake of OxLDL in SR A-deficient and wild-type MPM. RESULTS: The results showed that the binding of OxLDL wasn't apparently reduced in SR A-deficient MPM. The association of OxLDL was reduced by 35.8% and degradation of OxLDL was reduced by 42% in SR A-deficient MPM compared with those in wild-type MPM. CONCLUSION: Studies showed that SR A didn't play an important role in the uptake of OxLDL in MPM. Approximately 70% of the uptake of OxLDL in macrophages is attributable to non-SR A receptor.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the estrogenic activity of icariin and genistein with estrogen-dependent human breast cancer (MCF-7) cells.

METHODMCF-7 cells were incubated with media containing 5% charcoal dextran-treated FBS in phenol red-free media for 48 h. CCK-8 kit was used to study the impact of defferent concentration of icariin and genistein on MCF-7 proliferation in vitro. Optimal concentration icariin and genistein were added into medium and total RNA was isolated after 12, 24, 36, 48 h. The gene expression of ERalpha, ERbeta, PS2, and PR were investigated by Real-time RT-PCR Total protein was also isolated and secretion of ERalpha, ERbeta, PS2, and PR were examined by Western blot.

RESULT10 micromol x L(-1) icariin and genistein could promote the proliferation of MCF-7 evidently. However, the ability of genistein to promote the proliferation was better than icariin. With the concentration of 10 micromol x L(-1), genistein group had a stronger expression of ERa, PS2 and PR mRNA levels than icariin while ERbetaexpression had no significant difference in two group. The same effects were detected by western blotting.

CONCLUSIONBoth genistein and icariin have a strong estrogen-like effect, but the estrogenic activity of genistein is stronger than icariin. It showed that the activity of icariin is stron-ger than genistein to promote ROB maturation. So it must be that icariin promotes the maturation of osteoblasts in vitro by a estogen-independent mechanism.

Objective To explore the diagnosis and TNM stage effect of serum CYFRA21-1,VEGF and PDGF in patients with non-small cell lung cancer.Methods The electrochemiluminescence immunoas- say was used to detect serum CYFRA21-1,and the sandwich enzyme-linked immunoabsorbentassay(ELISA) was used to detect serum VEGF and PDGF in patients with non-small cell lung cancer and 30 normal healthy controls.Results Compared with healthy control group,the level of serum CYFRA21-1,VEGF and PDGF in non-small cell lung cancer group were much higher(P0.05).The serum CYFRA21-1 level was positively correlated with VEGF and PDGF(P

0.05).At post- operative 30 days and 90 days,ECD were(6.39?0.90)%,(6.54?1.24)% respectively in the torsional group and(13.17?1.78)%, (13.67?2.36)% respectively in the US group,the differences between two groups were statistically(P0.05).Conclusion The torsional mode may provide more effective lens re- moval with a lower level of phacoemulsification time and energy.It can reduce the ultrasound energy and the intraocular trauma.(Oph- thalmol CHN,2008,17:82-85)

BACKGROUND:In clinical application, the structure of crista lambdoidalis of L5 was unclear. It needs to expose more tissue to define L5 entry point through transverse process or superior and inferior articular process. This increased the risk of trauma and iatrogenic superior intervertebral degeneration. Therefore, it is necessary to expose L5 entry point with a minimaly invasive way. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the accuracy of L5 pedicle screw insertion with the entry point of mastoid process slope by imaging. METHODS:Mastoid process was located on the base of L5 superior articular process. A cant was formed when the highest point of L5 mastoid process backward protuberance extended inwards and downwards. The cant was defined as mastoid process slope; it was lateral to pedicle medial superior side internaly, medial to transverse process root and superior to the top of crista lambdoidalis. The slope was first easily touched and exposed in lumbar posterior surgery through paraspinal muscle space approach. Fifty patients of lumbar spine disorders were treated by L5 pedicle screws fixation through the entry point of mastoid process slope. According to preoperative radiographic and CT images, pedicle screw insertion direction of the sagittal and transverse sections was calculated. The diameter of pedicle screw was 6.5 mm. The condition of intraoperative successful rate of screws placement at one time was analyzed. The accuracy of screw placement was evaluated by postoperative radiographic and CT images. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:With the method of the mastoid process slope, the successful rate of screw placement at one time was 96% (96/100). Totaly 100 screws were inserted into L5. According to the criterion by Gertzbein, 95 screws (95%) totaly located in pedicles and 5 screws (5%) encroached on the pedicle from medial wal. Three (3%) out of 5 inaccurately placed screws cut out less than 2 mm of the inner wal, while 2 (2%) between 2 mm and 4 mm, without neurologic deficits. The method of mastoid process slope had a high successful rate of screw placement. Combined with preoperative X-ray films and CT images could obtain a high accuracy rate of screw insertion.

Objective To investigate the effect of video -assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS)and conventional thoracotomy in treatment of thoracic esophagus cancer,to provide the reference for clinical.Methods 90 cases of thoracic esophageal cancer in our hospital from January 2012 to January 2015 were chosen as the research subjects.They were randomly divided into observation group(application of VATS treatment)and the control group (application of traditional open chest surgery).The quantity difference,chest drainage,hospitalization time,complica-tions,recovery conditions and other indicators of bleeding were compared in the two groups.Results The operation time of the observation group[(267.6 ±76.5)min]was shorter than that of the control group[(324.4 ±87.6)min]. The amount of intraoperative bleeding[(235.3 ±79.5)mL],drainage volume[(327.5 ±95.2)mL]of the observation group were less than the control group[(398.2 ±98.3)mL and (752.6 ±156.4)mL].Postoperative hospitalization time[(12.2 ±3.2)d]of the observation group was shorter than the control group[(15.8 ±4.4)d].The differences were statistically significant (t =3.276,8.644,15.575,4.439,all P <0.05).There were no significant differences between two groups in recurrence and metastasis rate,mortality rate and total survival rate (χ2 =0.123,0.212, 0.212,all P >0.05).The complication rate of the observation group was lower than that of the control group,the difference was statistically significant (χ2 =4.865,P <0.05).Conclusion In the treatment of thoracic esophageal carcinoma,VATS and conventional thoracotomy surgery has good effect,and VATS has small injury,less complication.
