Bone mineral density (BMD) of lumbar spines, femoral neck, Ward′s triangle and greater trochanter was lowered, serum calcium, phosphate, alkaline phosphatase and bone Gla-protein levels were raised, and vitamin D receptor (VDR) contents in lymphocyte was lowered in hyperthyroid patients. Both FT 3 and FT 4 were negatively correlated with BMD, suggesting that hyperthyroidism results in high-turnover type of bone loss which causes the abnormalities of bone metabolic indices and VDR content.

In order to improve the teaching quality of experimental teaching of laboratory diagnosis and to cultivate the clinical ideation of medical students,we have been trying a series of reform in this course and obtained good results.Here,our experience in the selection of teaching contents,the improvement of teaching methods,and the setting of experimental assessment have been summarized and investigated.

Objective To explore the therapeutic efficacy of modified Taohong Siwu Decoctio n(TSD) combined with limited internal fixation and external fixation for the treatment of tibial plateau fracture of Schatzker type Ⅴand Ⅵ. M ethods A total of 31 cases of tibial plateau fractures of Schatzker type Ⅴ and Ⅵ treated with TSD orally combined with limited internal fixation and external fixation were enrolled into the study. Follow-up was carried out for the evaluation of therapeutic effect and postoperative complications. Results All of the cases received follow-up for 6 months to 3 years. According to Merchant scoring criteria, the therapeutic effect was excellent for 15 cases, good for 12 cases, acceptable for 3 cases and inferior for one case, with the excellent and good rate being 87.1%. One case had pin tract infection, and then was cured after symptomatic treatment. Conclusion For tibial plateau fracture of Schatzker typeⅤandⅥwith unsatisfactory skin state, we can perform limited internal fixation and external fixation to take the place of strong steel plate fixation with extensive exposure for surgical treatment, and then give postoperative oral use of TSD, which will be a safe and effective therapy for the fracture by promoting the relief of the clinical symptoms and signs of early fracture.

[ Objective ] To investigate the relationship between tongue manifestations and immune function in chronic hepatitis B with HBsAg, HBeAg and HBcAb positive. [Methods] Among the cases of HBsAg, HBeAg and HBcAb positive from the out - patient department and health screening survey, 200 chronic hepatitis patients and 100 asymptomatic HBV carriers with glumatic - pyruvic transaminase at normal level were included. Thirty healthy volunteers served as control. Relationship of tongue manifestations with phytohemagglutinin (PHA) skin test and the serum levels of immunoglobulin (Ig) G, IgA and IgM was analyzed. [Results] With the development of chronic hepatitis, the immune function became disordered and tongue manifestations abnormal. Reddish tongue with or without yellowish greasy fur or yellowish fur showed the hyperactivity of immune function; whitish swollen tongue with or without whitish greasy fur indicated the hypoactivity of immune function; dull purplish tongue was the sign of disordered immune function. The shape and color of tongue was superior to tongue fur in showing the condition of immune function ( P

Objective To evaluate the growth inhibition and apoptosis of human monocytic leukemia THP-1 cell line by using 5,8-dimethyl-2-β-hydroxyisovalerylshikonin (SK36) and explore its preliminary mechanism. Methods CCK colorimetric assay and cell counting was used to examine the growth inhibition of shikonin on THP-1 cells. The apoptosis of THP-1 cells was detected by Annexin V/PI double labeling. The activation of Caspase-3 apoptosis pathway was determined by FCM. The apoptosis and the necrosis of THP-1 cells were detected by the laser scanning confocal microscopy. Results When the THP-1 cells were treated with SK36 at 1.02 μg/ml for 24 h and 48 h, the growth inhibition was dose-dependent. The cell apoptotic rate of THP-1 cells treated with 1.02 μg/ml evaluated by FCM with Annexin V/PI double labeling staining were (40.61 ±2.13) % and (67.40±9.15) % at 24 h and 48 h after treatment, respectively, which were significantly higher than that of the control group [(16.97±0.61) %] ([ = 18.444, t = 9.528, P <0.01). SK36 could induce THP-1 cells apoptosis involving the activation of Caspase-3 (F= 323.61, P<0.01). Conclusion SK36 can induce human THP-1 cells to undergo apoptosis, and its primary mechanism was to activate the Caspase-3.

A skin cell segregating control system based on PC (personal computer) is presented in this paper. Its front controller is a single-chip microcomputer which enables the manipulation for 6 patients simultaneously, and thus provides a great convenience for clinical treatments for vitiligo. With the use of serial port communication technology, it's possible to monitor and control the front controller in a PC terminal. And the application of computer image acquisition technology realizes the synchronous acquisition of pathologic shin cell images pre/after the operation and a case history. Clinical tests prove its conformity with national standards and the pre-set technological requirements.

OBJECTIVETo study the predicting effect of proly 4-hydroxylase beta polypeptide (P4HB) in treating non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients by Yiqi Chutan Recipe (YCR).

METHODSTotally 46 stage III and IV NSCLC patients were treated by YCR for 4 therapeutic courses. Effect was assessed by RECIST of solid tumor. P4HB expression was detected in the lung cancer tissue by immunohistochemical assay. Factors affecting disease control rates (DCR) of YCR were analyzed by Logistic regression analysis. The correlation between P4HB expression and the effect of YCR was analyzed.

RESULTSThe DCR of advanced NSCLC treated by YCR was 36.96% (17/46 cases). P4HB was high expressed in advanced lung cancer tissue (6/15 cases). Gender, initial treatment, and retreatment are independent factors for affecting DCR of treating lung cancer by YCR.

CONCLUSIONP4HB might be taken as a factor for predicting the effect of YCR in treating NSCLC.
