PurposeThe restriction of strain ratio (SR) in the diagnosis of thyroid malignant tumor are caused mainly because of disadvantages including low sensitivity, in this research the authors used different calculation methods of strain ratio based on the size of tumors, to explore the clinical application value of them on the differentiation of benign and malignant thyroid nodules.Materials and Methods Data of 336 patients with thyroid nodule (340 nodules) who underwent elasticity imaging and ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration were retrospective analyzed, with the pathology combined follow up acted as golden standards, fixed surface area assay and true surface area assay of strain ratio were compared on the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodules with various size.Results Among 340 thyroid nodules, there were 91 small nodules and 249 big nodules. Pathological results showed that 36 of 91 small nodules and 104 of 249 big nodules were malignant, while the others were benign. The true surface area assay was significantly better for the diagnosis of smaller thyroid nodules with longitudinal diameter and transverse diameter<8 mm with higher consistency with pathology (χ2=20.89,P<0.01), and fixed surface area assay is more suitable of thyroid nodules with longitudinal diameter and transverse diameter>8mm (χ2=57.08,P<0.01). The sensitivity, specificity and consistency for the diagnosis of malignant nodules of true surface area assay were 57.10%, 83.00% and 72.30% (Kappa=0.413), which were 73.60%, 85.00% and 72.30% (Kappa=0.590) in the fixed surface area assay, and 85.00%, 85.50% and 85.30% (Kappa=0.699) in the selective usage of two methods according to the tumor size, respectively.Conclusion The sensitivity is highest when using the two methods selectively according to the nodule size, with a better consistence rate with pathological results as well.

Objective\ To observe the expression of 5\|HT 1A and 5\|HT 2A receptor mRNAs in the rat spinal cord and dorsal root ganglion(DRG). Methods\ In situ hybridization histochemical technique. Results\ (1)5\|HT\-\{1A\} receptor mRNA positive neurons were found in all laminae of the gray matter,mainly in the superficial laminae(laminae Ⅰ and Ⅱ),laminae Ⅲ and Ⅳ of the dorsal horn.Scattered positive neurons were also observed in laminae Ⅴ\|Ⅶ and Ⅹ.Very few positive signals were found in the ventral horn(lamnina Ⅸ);(2)5\|HT\-\{2A\} receptor mRNA positive neurons were mainly found in the superficial laminae and ventral horn,while sparsely distributed positive neurons were also located in other laminae.Within the DRG:(1)About 10\^4% of the total DRG cells were labeled with 5\|HT 1A receptor mRNA.The positive signals were mainly confined to a subpopulation of small\| and medium\|sized cells;(2)About 17\^4% of the total DRG cells were labeled with 5\|HT 2A receptor mRNA,most of them were also small\| and medium\|sized cells. Conclusions\ 5\|HT 1A and 5\|HT 2A receptor mRNAs positive neurons distributed heterogeneously in the rat spinal cord and DRG, they may play important roles for 5\|HT in the analgesic effects at the spinal level and nociception in the periphery.\;

The aim was to construct and identify the mammalian expression vector of pCAG-IRES-SHIP-GFP and to detect whether it could express in human acute leukemia cell line K562.The cDNA fragment of SHIP obtained by RT-PCR was inserted into pCAG-IRES-GFP.The recombinant plasmid was confirmed by restriction enzyme digesiton,PCR and DNA sequecing.pCAG-IRES-SHIP-GFP was transfected into K562 cells with lipofectamine 2000.The expression of SHIP was determined by GFP fluorescence and Western blot analysis.FQ-PCR was used to quantitate SHIP mRNA.The expression of p-Akt,Akt were determined by Western blot.PI were tested by flow cytometry and MTT to verify whether exogenous SHIP could inhibit proliferation of K562 cells.The results showed that the correct constrution of the recombinant plasmid pCAG-IRES-SHIP-GFP has been shown by restriction enzyme digestion,PCR and DNA sequencing.pCAG-IRES-SHIP-GFP could express SHIP protein in K562 cells.The K562 cells viability after transfected with SHIP gene droped down.Western blot analysis showed that phospha-Akt308 and Akt473 were reduced to 38.7% and 68% respectively.It was concluded that the vector of pCAG-IRES-SHIP-GFP has been successfully constructed and it can be expressed in K562 cells.The expression of exogenous SHIP gene can lead to apoptosis of K562 cells by down-regulating the p-Akt expression.What found here might be one of the mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of leukemia.

This study attempts to discuss the correlation between UGT1A1*28 as uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase gene promoter and coding region Gly71Arg gene polymorphism with neonatal hyperbilirubinemia of neonates in Wuhan.A total of 168 neonates were divided into the hyperbilirubinemia group (case group,n=108) and healthy neonates group (control group,n=60).Their DNA was obtained through blood extraction.The gene exon mutation of UGT1A1 was detected by Sanger sequencing,which revealed the relationship between UGT 1A 1*28 and Gly71Arg polymorphism with neonatal hyperbilirubinemia of neonates.The results showed that:(1) The frequency of UGT1Al*28 allele mutation in the case group and the control group was 9.3％ and 10％ respectively,with the difference being not significant between the two groups (P＞0.05).(2) The frequency of Gly71Arg allele mutation in the case group and the control group was 35.1％ and 21.7％ respectively,with the difference being significant between the two groups (P＜0.01).(3) The serum bilirubin level of Gly71Arg mutant homozygous and heterozygous subgroups (n=66) in the case group was 302.7±31.4 μmol/L,which was significantly higher than 267.3±28.5 μmol/L of the wild subgroup (n=42) (P＜0.01).It was suggested that the occurrence of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia of neonates in Wuhan was not associated with UGT 1A1*28 gene polymorphism,but closely with the Gly71Arg gene polymorphism.Meanwhile,the Arg allele mutation was related to the degree of jaundice.

Three hundred and twenty-one bacteria strains were obtained from rice leaves,stem,root tissue and paddy field soil,of which the number of strains which can inhibit mycelium of Magnaporthe grisea growth markedly was fifty-seven through fermentation in 2.0 mL Eppendorf tube,and among these fifty-seven strains,five strains were strongly antagonistic to Magnaporthe grisea.These five strains was identified for their morphologic,physiological and biochemical characteristics,and the results showed that one strain(No.156)was bacillus subtilis,two strains(No.171 and No.177)were Bacillus pumillus and two strains(No.192 and No.279)were Bacillus ploymyxa.

Objective To explore the main influence factors(heart rate,rotation speed,and reconstruction algorithm)on the image quality of coronary artery with 40 mm VCT(64-detector row helical CT)using a pulsating cardiac phantom.Methods An adjustable pulsating cardiac phantom(GE) containing predetermined simulated coronary arteries was scanned using a 40 mm VCT(GE LightSpeed CT) with cardiac pulsating rates of 40,45,50,55,60,65,70,75,80,85,90,95,100,105,110,and 115 beats per minute(bpm).The variable rotation speeds technique of 0.35 s,0.40 s,and 0.45 s were used, respectively.The raw data were reconstructed using both one-sector and multi-sector reconstruction algorithm at optimal window of the R-R interval.The image quality score(IQS)was evaluated by two radiologists according to the same evaluation standard of reformated image.The correlation between heart rate(HR), roation speed,reconstruction algorithm,and IQS were analyzed.The IQS as independent variable and the HR,rotation speed,reconstruction algorithm as dependent variables were analyzed by multiple linear regression analysis.Restllts The heart rate and the reconstruction algorithm had significant influence on IQS.The rotation speed(0.35s,0.40s,and 0.45s)didn't have significant influence on IQS.There was linear regression relationship between heart rate,reconstruction algorithm and IQS(P
