Lipid abnormality is a major risk factor of atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease.Pharmacological agents used to manage lipid abnormalities have been rapidly developed in recent years.Many new drugs have shown significant effects in the regulation of lipid abnormalities.Eight groups of drugs used to regulate lipid abnormalities were outlined in this paper,and the current recommendation for regulation of lipid abnormalities with some new drugs were discussed in details.

Cycloxygenase-2 plays an important role in many human tumorigenesis, and is overexpressod in breast cancer. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the relationship between COX-2 and breast cancer, and to develop the desirable COX-2 inhibitor. These can privide a new antitumor method.

With the continuous development of computer, imaging and angiography techniques, their study method and category are being innovated and expanded continuously in recent years. This article reviews the novel techniques of imaging diagnosis, intra-arterial thrombolysis, angioplasty and endovascular embolization in cerebrovascular diseases, and also evaluates their clinical applications.

Objective:To construct recombinant expressing vector pcDNA3-DAF and to develop the NIH3T3 cell model expess human complement regulatory protein decay accelerating factor(DAF,CD55)stably after transfected.Methods:Human membrane complement regulatory protein(hCRP) DAF cDNA containing the full-length of encoding region was cloned into expressing vector pcDNA3.After identification by restriction enzyme digestion,PCR and sequencing,the recombinant plasmid was transfected into NIH3T3 cells with calcium phosphate-DNA precipitate method.A stably-transfected cell line was established by G418 selection.Extraneous gene integration was identified by PCR.Expression of DAF at both mRNA and protein levels was analyzed by RT-PCR,Western blot and indirect immunofluorescence microscopy.Results:The eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3-DAF was successfully constructed and the DAF gene was transfected stably into NIH3T3 cells,a stably-transfected cell line was established and DAF was efficiently expressed on the surface of transfected NIH3T3 cells.Human DAF cDNA was integrated into NIH3T3 pcDNA3-DAF genomic DNA after continuous 30 times passages,indicating that NIH3T3 pcDNA3-DAF was stable cell line.Conclusion:The establishment of the stably-transfected cell line and the expression of the target gene provide a base for further studies on the function of the DAF and the cooperative fashion among different human complement regulatory proteins in alleviating the complement-mediated cytolysis.

ObjectiveTo investigate clinical features,diagnosis and treatment of hyperlipidemic severe acute pancreatitis(HSAP) in late pregnancy. MethodsA retrospective analysis was made on 12 HSAP cases. ResultsHSAP accounting for 20%(12/60) of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) cases, develops during the period of 28~36 weeks of pregnancy. There were 5 cases in SAP type Ⅰand 7 cases in SAP type Ⅱ. Multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) was complicated in 4 cases. HSAP is featured with severe hypertriglyceridemia (29?14)mmol/L, significant systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), large amount of lipidemic bloody ascites. All cases underwent successful. Cesarean section followed by pancreatic operation and were cured. ConclusionHSAP in late pregnancy is a specific type of SAP with fulminant clinical course leading to fetal distress. Effective management of pregnant hypertriglyceridemia helps to prevent HSAP.

Objective To investigate the clinical feature of POEMS syndrome,and raise the level of diagnosis and treat- ment.Methods The clinical data of 2 cases of POEMS syndrome were analyzed and relevant literature were reviewed. Results The clinical manifestation of 2 cases included splenohepatomegalia,splanchnocoel hydrops,endocrine func- tional disorder,nigrescence on face,protein of CSF and IgA and immunoglobulin light chain of serum increasing.The symptoms of 2 patients improved after treatment with hormone and L-Sarcolysinum.Conclusion POEMS syndrome is a rare and complicated disease that can be misdiagnosed.Follow up associated with immunology,endocrine and bone marrow aspiration examination should be carried in time on the patients suspected with POEMS syndrome,which is valu- able to the diagnosis and reducing misdiagnosis and mistreatment.

Objective To explore a new method which could detect the misplacement of peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC).Methods The action of coughing was applied to 252 patients and observing the changes in dripping speed.Results The accuracy rate of this new method was 100.00％ (252/252).The success rate of first PICC in these patients was also 100.00％ (252/252).Conclusions It suggests that the new method Should be effective and convenient in the assessment of PICC misplacement and it can be applied to detect the misplacement occurred in and after the process of PICC.

Objective To evaluate the plasma level of miR-21 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients and its clinical diagnostic significance .Methods Case-control study was used .The plasma level of miR-21 was measured by real-time quantitative PCR.The relative expressions of miR-21 were calculated. This study included 60 cases of patients with HCC , 71 patients with liver cirrhosis ( LC ) , 52 healthy volunteers ( HV) from January to June in 2014 in Henan Province People′s Hospital.The receiver operating characteristic ( ROC) curves were analyzed to determine the sensitivity and specificity of miR-21 expression levels in HCC diagnosis. Differences between groups were assessed by the t-test.Results Plasma microRNA-21 level in the 60 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma ( 2.6 ±1.1 ) was significantly higher than in patients with chronic hepatitis (1.6 ±0.9) and healthy volunteers (1.0 ±0.6) (t=5.322,P=0.004;t =8.349, P =0.000 3, respectively ) .Plasma microRNA-21 level in the HCC patients were positively correlated with tumor size and differentiation (tdif=3.366,P=0.019;tsize =3.490,P=0.012). ROC analysis of plasma microRNA-21 yielded an AUC of 0.796 with 70.0% sensitivity and 65.3%specificity when differentiating hepatocellular carcinoma from chronic hepatitis , and an AUC of 0.934 with 89.5% sensitivity and 81.8% specificity when differentiating hepatocellular carcinoma from healthy volunteers.Conclusion The plasma level of miR-21 in HCC patients has high specificity , and maybe help to diagnose of HCC.

Objective To optimize and simplify the survey method of Oncomelania hupensis snail in marshland endemic re?gion of schistosomiasis and increase the precision,efficiency and economy of the snail survey. Methods A quadrate experimen?tal field was selected as the subject of 50 m×50 m size in Chayegang marshland near Henghu farm in the Poyang Lake region and a whole?covered method was adopted to survey the snails. The simple random sampling,systematic sampling and stratified ran?dom sampling methods were applied to calculate the minimum sample size,relative sampling error and absolute sampling error. Results The minimum sample sizes of the simple random sampling,systematic sampling and stratified random sampling meth?ods were 300,300 and 225,respectively. The relative sampling errors of three methods were all less than 15%. The absolute sampling errors were 0.221 7,0.302 4 and 0.047 8,respectively. Conclusion The spatial stratified sampling with altitude as the stratum variable is an efficient approach of lower cost and higher precision for the snail survey.

To investigate the relationship between the expression of death associated protein kinase (DAPK) gene and oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). The expression of DAPK gene in OSCC was detected by semi-quantitive RT-PCR. The results showed that the expression of DAPK gene was down regulated significantly, which may relate to the tumorigenesis and development of OSCC. The detection of DAPK gene may act as an index in OSCC dignosis.
