Objective To analyze the clinical and X-ray manifestations of sclerosing adenosis of the breast,and to evaluate the val-ue of preoperative differential diagnosis between the sclerosing adenosis and the breast cancer combined with pathology.Methods X-ray manifestations and clinical features of 25 patients with the sclerosing adenosis of the breast confirm by surgical pathology were analyzed retrospectively.Then the X-ray manifestations and clinical features were compared with the pathological results.Results Total 25 patients suffered from the sclerosing adenosis of the breast.Among them,2 cases were bilateral sclerosing adenosis,23 ca-ses were unilateral sclerosing adenosis,6 cases with epithelial atypical hyperplasia,4 cases with intraductal papilloma,7 cases with fibroadenoma nodule formation,and the rest with the pure sclerosing adenosis.X-ray manifestations:7 cases presented the medium density nodular shadows with blurred and irregular edges,1 6 cases showed the star-shaped shadows of which 6 cases were the“black stars”,3 cases of“white stars”.One in 7 cases can only see a star shadow,another was unclear or the form was varied.1 3 patients showed the calcification among 4 cases presented the small clusters of distribution with needlepoint-like calcification,2 cases of bulky curved calcification,and the rest with scattered and regional distribution of dot,needlepoint-like calcification.Conclusion Combined with clinical manifestations,the breast X-ray plays an important role in the differential diagnosis of sclerosing adenosis and the breast cancer.

Objective The study was designed to investigate the intestinal mucosa barrier function changes in rats with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP),and the intervention effect of epigallocatechin-3-gallate(EGCG) injection and its mechanisms of protection on intestinal mucosa barrier function injury of SAP with the purpose of providing evidence for preventing and curing intestinal mucosa barrier function injury of SAP in clinical practice.Methods A total of 80 healthy male Sprauge-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into a normal group (Normal),a sham-operation group (Sham),a SAP model group (Model),and a EGCG treated group (EGCG),with 24 rats (except 8 rats in the normal group) in each group.The latter three groups each had three subgroups at three time points:6,12,24hours.Rats with SAP were prepared with retrograde cholangiopancreatic duct infusion in 5％ sodium taurocholate.The dynamic changes of the indexes of intestinal mucosa barrier function injury and Pancreas injury were observed at various time points in each group,including the levels of Plasma diamine oxidase (DAO) and serum amylase and malondialdehyde (MDA),nitric oxide(NO),inducible nitric oxide synthase(iNOS)in gut.Results 1.The levels of serum amylase [(3158.64 ± 218.25)μ/L,(4277.24 ± 231.35)μ/L,(5842.76 ± 248.18)μ/L] and plasma DAO concentration [(4.23 ± 0.51) μ/L,(5.13 ± 0.32)μ/L,(7.83 ± 0.76) μ/L] in the Model group were significantly higher at 6 h,12 h,24 h postoperation than the Normal group[serum amylase:(2074.11 ± 101.56)μ/L,DAO:(2.32 ± 0.48) μ/L] and Sham group [serum amylase:(1885.27 ± 103.89) μ/L,(1778.57 ± 98.94) μ/L,(1935.24 ± 105.87) μ/L].The levels of serum amylase [(2576.70 ± 123.43) μ/L,(2783.77 ± 155.53) μ/L,(2902.32 ±176.25) μ/L] and plasma DAO concentration (3.59 ± 0.57) μ/L,(3.98 ± 0.67) μ/L,(6.44 ± 0.71) μ/L in the EGCG group were lower than the Model group,but higher than the Normal group and the Sham group.Compared with the Normal group and the Sham group,the concentration of MDA and NO [MDA:(2.28±0.35) μmol/g,(3.02 ± 0.41) μmol/g,(3.78 ± 0.48) μmol/g ; NO:(16.80 ± 0.60) μmol/g,(18.23 ± 0.78) μmol/g,(20.14±0.82) μ,mol/g] significantly increased in the Model group at 6h,12 h,and 24 h postoperation.The concentration of MDA and NO (1.67±0.14) μmol/g,(1.75±0.16) μmol/g,(1.84±0.22) μmol/g; NO:(9.09±0.31) μmol/g,(9.32±0.44)μmol/g,(10.15±0.52)μmol/g were lower in the EGCG group in all times than the Model group.Compared with the Normal group (0.10) and the Sham group (0.25).The expression ofiNOS was significantly increased in the Model group(1.86).The expression of iNOS was lower in the EGCG group (0.66) in all times than the Model group,but higher than the Normal group and the sham group (P＜0.05).Conclusion Conclusion EGCG can protect the damages of intestinal mucosa barrier function in SAP rats,probably through reducing free radicals,and the iNOS expression.

The anti-endotoxic effect of syringic acid (SA) isolated from Radix Isatidis (Banlangen, BLG) was studied. SA was extracted and isolated from BLG and diluted into 1% solution. The content of SA-pretreated endotoxin (ET) was quantitatively determined using Limulus test. The ability of fever induction of ET pretreated with SA was measured using endotoxin-induced fever test in rabbits. The LPS-induced death in mice pretreated with and without SA was compared. Results showed that after pretreatment with SA, 83.16% of ET was destroyed, the ET-induced fever in rabbits relieved markedly and the LPS-induced death rate in mice dropped from 68% to 20%. It was concluded that SA isolated from BLG had anti-endotoxic effects.

Objective To establish a microbial limit test for levofloxacin hydrochloride gel. Methods Ca2+ was added to neutralize the antibacterial activity of quinolone,and to form the insoluble precipitate by binding with carbomer, therefore destroying the stability of macromolecules in the gel. The microbial limit test for levofloxacin hydrochloride gel was confirmed combining with membrane filtration and plate methods. Results The normal plate counting was used in detecting the mold and yeast colony in the gel, the recovery was more than 70%.Simultaneously neutralization centrifugation and membrane filtration were used in bacterial count,with recovery less than 70%,and controlling bacteria test. Conclusion The method is accurate and practical for microbial limit test of levofloxacin hydrochloride gel, but is risky for bacterial counting and needs further risk assessment.

Objective To study the genetic variation of two mitochondrial DNA molecules (CO1 and Cytb gene) of Oncomelania hupensis isolated from different areas. Methods Snails were collected from Jingxi of Guangxi,Yueyang of Hunan and Eryuan of Yunnan. Genomic DNA was extracted from the snails,Co1 and Cytb gene fragments were amplified by PCR,then purified and sequenced. Sequences of each isolates were edited by using Clustal W(1.82) software,and the nucleotide composition,transition and transversion were accounted by using MEGA(3.1) software. The genetic distances were computed with Kimura method and phylogenetic trees were constructed with UPGMA and MP method respectively. Results CO1 and Cytb gene fragments were about 700 bp and 600 bp(including 2 primers) respectively. A total of 106 mutation spots (15.9%) were tested in CO1 homological nucleotides,and 165 mutation spots (28.5%) were tested in Cytb homological nucleotides. The distance matrix between Guangxi isolate and Hunan isolate was 0.051 and 0.031 for CO1 gene and Cytb gene respectively;while that between Guangxi and Yunnan isolates was 0.158 and 0.405 respectively. Phylogenetic trees constructed by UPGMA and MP took on the similar topo-structure:isolates of Guangxi and Hunan clustered into one group,while the Yunnan isolate exhibited as another group. Conclusion Oncomelania hupensis in Guangxi,Hunan and Yunnan are of relatively rich polymorphism in CO1 and Cytb genes in general.

Objective To study the potential roles of acoustic immittance,distortion product otoacoustic e-mission (DPOAE),and the brainstem response audiometry (ABR)in the diagnosis of children with acute non-sup-purative otitis media (AN-SOM).Methods A retrospective analysis was administered to 182 cases with AN-SOM at the otolaryngology department between March 2014 and March 2015.We compared the results of the acous-tic immitance of 218 symptomatic ears and 146 asymptomatic ears,and also the proportion of DPOAE abnormity and ABR abnormity.We analyzed the specialty of symptomatic ears and asymptomatic ears in 3 terms of audiology test results.Results The proportions of abnormal tympanograms,DPOAE,ABR for symptomatic ear were 64.7%, 72.0%,and 57.8%,which were significantly higher than those of in 41.8%,39.7%,and 35.6% in asymptomatic ear.The difference were statistically significant(P<0.05).A further analysis of audiologic results showed that at least one abnormal result was as high as 196 ears (89.9%)in the asymptomatic ear,90 ears (61.6%)showed no symptoms.The differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The results of audiology tests showed that tym-panograms in symptomatic ears showed diversity,that were 60.6% for type B or C,35.3% for type A,4.1% for the As.Conclusion The early detections by using acoustic immitance,DPOAE and ABR are very important to the diagnosis of children with acute non-suppurative otitis media.It can improve the sensitivity,and reduce the misdi-agnosis.

Objective To investigate the treatment of symptomatic patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in very low birth weight preterm infants. Methods From January 1, 2008 to December 31, 2010, 78 very low birth weight preterm infants (birth weight＜1500 g) were diagnosed as symptomatic PDA. Among which, 42 cases administered orally with indomethacin (0.2 mg/kg, every 12 hrs for three times) were taken as treatment group, while five cases in this group who failed to indomethacin treatment were interrupted with video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. And 36 cases who did not receive treatment for ductus arteriosus were taken as control group. The clinical outcomes, complications and prognosis of these patients were observed. Results There were no significant differences between the gentle percentage, gestational age, diameter of ductus arteriosus, rate of complicated with heart failure, sepsis, neonatal respiratory distress syndrome and intraventricular hemorrhage of two groups (P>0.05, respectively). The ductus arteriosus closed in 33 patients of treatment group (78.6%) and in nine patients of control group (25.0%)(χ2=22.39,P=0.000). There were no significant differences in serum creatinine level and platelet count between before and after the treatment in treatment group(P>0.05). Compared with control group, the treatment group had lower incidence of intraventricular hemorrhage (z=1.167, P=0.030), shorter duration of oxygen therapy [(8.0±5.5) d vs (13.3±9.3) d, t=2.225, P=0.032] and shorter hospital stay [(39.0±7.7) d vs (43.6±10.6) d, t=2.229, P=0.029]; while the incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia and necrotizing enterocolitis were similar (P>0.05). The five cases of PDA who received video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery were successfully interrupted with no residual shunt left, while three of them had lung infections and one had pleural effusion, but no pneumothorax and infant death associated with surgery occurred. Conclusions Symptomatic PDA of very low birth weight preterm infants should be treated actively. Oral indomethacin was an effective and safe method to cure the PDA in these infants. Surgical ligation under video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery after failure of indomethacin treatment might be a good option.

Objective To collect the demographic,lifestyle and clinical factors of patients with cerebrovascular disease,and analyze the vascular cognitive impairment(VCI) factors and set up high-risk factors model.methods 505 patients with cerebrovascular disease hospitalization in department of geriatrics and neurology in hospital from October 2014 to October 2016 were enrolled.According to the questionaire survey data of demographics,lifestyle and clinical factors,the patients were divided into training set (421 cases) and test set (84 cases),and training set were divided into the non-VCI set (225 cases) and VCI set (196 cases).Analyzed the influence factors of VCI in patients with cerebrovascular disease by decision tree algorithm,and compared it with the Logistic regression analysis and chi-square and established the decision tree model for risk factors of VCI.Result sAccording to the VCI decision tree model,cross validation model recognition accuracy was 73.63%,while test set prediction accuracy was 73.81%.Alcoholism,hobbies,education level,tea drinking,diabetes,hypertension,diet,age,sleep and physical exercise were classification of node variables,while drinking was the root.The probability of VCI had significant difference (P<0.05) in the crowds with different risk factors.According to Result s of Logistic regression analysis,education level,drinking,exercise and diabetes were independent risk factors for VCI,while the model prediction accuracy was 66.98%,and test set prediction accuracy was 53.57%.According to the ROC curve of the decision tree model and the Logistic regression model,the decision tree model AUC was 0.737 (95%CI 0.688 to 0.786),and the Logistic regression model AUC was 0.664 (95%CI 0.612 to 0.717).Conclusion It is suggested that the decision tree model might be superior to logistic regression model in the prediction accuracy for VCI of patients with cerebrovascular disease.The alcoholism,diabetes,high blood pressure,high fat diet and insomnia are risk factors of VCI,while hobbies,high level of education,physical exercise and drinking tea can be the protective factors of the VCI.

Objective To explore the effectiveness of 12-week exercises with different intensities on cardiorespiratory fitness(CRF)of rats,so as to provide theoretical evidences for evaluating effective exercise loads.Methods Forty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into a low intensity group(50％ VO2max),a moderate intensity group(65％VO2max),a high intensity group(80％VO2max)and a sedentary group,each of 10.All rats were measured the VO2max after three-day adaptive training,then they were repeated the VO2max test every two weeks on the non-training days and the load of the next two weeks was adjusted according to the test result.The treadmill speed was controlled to maintain the specific exercise intensity of each group in the training period.The rats in the exercise groups were trained 5 days per week and 60 minutes per day.After 12 weeks of exercise intervention,the ultrasonic cardiogram tests were conducted.Results After 12 weeks of exercise,compared with the sedentary group,the average weight of the low and high intensity groups decreased significantly(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).After the 12-week exercise intervention,the average VO2max of the three exercise groups were significantly higher than the sedentary group (P＜0.01).The average CRF of the moderate and high intensity group improved faster,with their peak value at the 6th and 8th week respectively.However,in the low intensity group significant improvement in the average CRF was observed from the 10th week,with the peak value appearing at the 12th week.The average left ventricular internal dimension systole of the high intensity group was lower than the low intensity group(P＜0.05),while the ejection fraction and left ventricular shortening fraction increased significantly (P＜0.05).Conclusions Exercises with different intensity can improve the CRF.However,compared with moderate and high intensity exercise,it requires longer time to improve CRF with low intensity exercise.Only exercise with 80％VO2max can significantly improve the cardiac pumping function.
