Objective To investigate the morphology characters of upper airway and its surrounding tissues in different age non-snoring males.Methods Total of 114 non-snoring males,with age-nlnge from 22 to 78 year old,were included in this study.They were divided into 3 groups:30 in younger group (22-29 years old),57 in middle-aged group(36-57 years old),and 31 in aged group(70-78 years old).All subjects had magnetic resonance imping sanning.Results (1)The nasopharynx in aged group was statistically different from that of the younger group and the midge aged group.The volume of nasopharynx in aged group(7.81±1.59)cm3 (χ-±s,same hereinafter) is greater than that in younger group(4.89±1.20)cm3 and middle aged groups(6.06±2.07)cm3.(2)The AP diameter/transverse dimeter of velophatynx,glossopharynx and laryngopharynx in the aged group tended to be smaller.The average value of AP diameter/transverse diameter of velopharynx in aged group is 0.46±0.14.while the value is 0.59±0.14 and 0.57±0.14 in midge and young groups respectively,compared with that of the aged group,there is statistical diffrence(P＜0.01).Further more,the min/max Section area of velophatynx,glossopharynx,hryngopharynx in aged group are smaller than that of young group and midlife groups.(3)The aged group had the thinnest thickness of posterior and lateral velopharyngeal walls,but the largest volume of soft palate and fatpads among all groups.Conclusions In non-snoring males,there is more fat deposition around the upper airway with aging.While the large naxopharynx and large transvdrse diameter of upper airway seem to balance the disadvantaged changes and to benefit the their sleep respiration.

Objective:To investigate the prevalence of post-traumatic stress disorder(PTSD)symptoms in middle school students after Wenchuan earthquake.Methods:The PTSD Checklist-Civilian version( PCL-C),which included three symptom groups(A,B,and C),was used to assess the PTSD symptoms in 1960 middle school students in the disaster region through self-questionnaire.Results:(1)The general positive rate of PTSD symptoms was 78.3%,and that of B group was the highest(68.9%).(2)The rates of general PTSD and three symptom groups of PTSD were higher in girls,high grade students,minority groups,rural students,injured in earthquake and those who lost family property than in boys,low grade students,the Han nationality,urban students,not injured in earthquake and those who did not lost family property[such as,the general positive rate of PTSD symptoms:girls 82.2%,boys 73.9%,P<0.05].(3)The rates of severe PTSD symptoms in girls and rural students were higher than that in boys and urban students(27.9% vs.19.9%,26.7% vs.21.4%,Ps<0.05).Conclusions:PTSD symptoms are common among middle school students in earthquake region.Targeted measures should be taken to protect middle school students from PTSD in earthquake region.

Objective To screen the splicing isoforms of estrogen receptor βin the Beagle hypothalamic -pituitary -gonadal axis.Methods For ERβmRNA CDS sequence of eight exons, primers were designed confined to the CDS sequences of two sequential exons.Beagle hypothalamus, pituitary, ovary and uterus tissue cDNA were used as template, and corresponding sequences were amplified by PCR.PCR products were sequenced and aligned in the NCBI web site.The correct gene was then analyzed with DNAMAN comparative analysis software and handwork checking up, thus got the ERβsplicing isoforms of Beagle. Results Four beagle ER beta splicing isomers were obtained:exon 4 complete skipping ER βisomer (300 bp missing), two kind of Beagle ERβisoforms with partial exon 4 and partial exon 5 complicated missing (isoformⅠ334 bp missing and isoformⅡ265 bp missing), and exon 7 complete missing ERβsplicing isoforms (181 bp missing).Exon 4 complete skipping and exon 7 complete missing isomers had been obtained full length coding sequence, and the other two splicing isomers were partial coding sequence.Conclusion This project gained four ERβsplicing isomers of Beagle, and that will lay an important foundation for further study of their roles in the Beagle reproductive regulation mechanism.

16 and the distribution of severe trauma more than 2 anatomic parts.They were randomly divided into two groups:intensive insulin treatment group(n=31)and control group(n=31).Intensive insulin treatment group received insulin with insulin pump in order to maintain blood glucose levels at 4.0-6.1 mol/L,while the control group received routine insulin treatment in order to mmaintain blood glucose levels at 10.0- 11.0 mol/L.Plasma levels of TNF-?,IL-1,IL-6, CRP,APACHEⅡscores and cure rate were analyzed before and after the treatment.Data was expressed as mean?standard deviation.Two- tailed T test and ANOVA were used for comparison in SPSS 10.0,and changes were considered as statistically significant if P value was less than 0.05.Results After the intensive insulin treatment, patient's hemodynamic parameter apparently improved,APACHEⅡscores descended,and the levels of TNF-?, Ib-1,IL-6,CRP all declined,in comparison with control group,there were significant differences. Intensive insulin treatment might improve patient's general condition and decrease complications and mortality of severe multiple trauma.

Objective To investigate the relationship between polymorphisms of gene promoter region INS 5′UTR single nu-cleotide and type 2 diabetes and serum IAA-Ab levels.Methods By Sequenom MassArray SNP genotyping detection technology, INS 3 pyomter regime single nucleotide polymorphisms (rs689,rs714641 77 and rs3842738)of 497 patients in Chongqing with type 2 diabetes cases(treatment group)and 500 cases(control group)were genotyped and analyzed.IAA-Ab levels in diabetes patients was detected.Theχ2 test statistic was used to analyze the treatment group and control groups.The genotype frequency distribution of IAA-Ab-positive and negative groups SNP was analyzed by non-conditional logistic regression,adjusted for sex,age impact,cal-culated the odds ratio (OR)and 95 % confidence interval(CI ).The polymorphic loci with type 2 diabetes susceptibility and serum GAD-Ab levels was evaluated.Results The genotype frequency distribution of rs689AA,TT and AT was 58.75%,28.77% and 12.47%,respectively.The control group are 50.40%,35.60% and 14.00% respectively.The difference was statistically significant (χ2 =3.923,P <0.05).Compared with the genotype of AA,TT genotype can decrease risky of diabetes,with OR values 0.35(95%CI :0.18-1.06).There was significant difference of AA,TT,AT genotypes between IAA-Ab negative and IAA-Ab positive pa-tients (P < 0.05 ).Conclusion INS polymorphisms might be related to the risky of type 2 diabetes and serum IAA-Ab level in chinses population.

Abstract: Objective　To understand the kdr (knockdown resistance, kdr) gene mutation of the voltage-gated sodium channel (VGSC) of Anopheles sinensis in Yunnan Province. Methods　From 2018 to 2019, mosquitoes were collected in Luoping County, Suijiang County, Tengchong City, Yingjiang County, Yuanjiang County and Mengla County in Yunnan Province. The collected mosquitoes were morphologically identified as Anopheles sinensis and genomic DNA was extracted by kits. The DNA templates were sequenced after PCR amplification and the sequencing results were identify as Anopheles sinensis by homology alignment in NCBI. After the ⅡS5 and ⅡS6 fragments of the sodium channels in Anopheles sinensis were amplified and sequenced, the sequencing results were multiple aligned by DNAMAN software, and the mutations were analyzed one by one with BioEdit software to determine the kdr allele types and genotypes, and the frequencies were calculated. Results This survey amplified 287 sequences, and the sequence maps showed that 1014 loci had three alleles, including wild type TTG/L (89.20%), mutant type TTT/F (9.76%) and TCG/S (1.04%). Five genotypes: homozygous wildtype L/L (85.02%), homozygous mutant F/F (6.27%) and S/S (0.35%), heterozygous mutant L/F (6.97%) and L/S (1.39%). The wild type allele TTG/L was the main allele in six sampling sites except Suijiang County. The frequency of wild type allele in Tengchong City was the highest (100.00%). That is, no mutation was detected, while the rest of counties occurred different degrees of mutation at 1014 loci. The frequency of mutant allele in Suijiang County was the highest, reaching 55.68%. Luoping County, Mengla County and Suijiang County had two mutant types. Yingjiang County and Yuanjiang County had one heterozygous mutant L/F. Conclusion　Wild type L1014 (TTG/L) is still dominant in most areas of Yunnan Province. The kdr mutation type is mainly L1014F, followed by L1014S, and the mutation frequency is lower than that in central provinces of China.

OBJECTIVETo observe mid- and long-term changes in the histopathology and electron microscopic characteristics of the acellular dermal matrix engrafted with thin split-thickness skin autograft.

METHODSTwenty-three biopsy samples were collected from 17 patients undergoing extremity scar resection, who received subsequent grafting using allogenic dermal matrix dressed with thin split-thickness skin autografts. Six months to 2 years after the grafting, the grafts were sampled for histopathological and electron microscopic observations of the layer of the epidermis, thickness of the basal membrane, structural components of the dermis, and infiltration of fibroblasts and revascularization. The data were compared with those of the normal skin samples from the patients.

RESULTSOnly the number of epidermal layers showed statistically significant difference between the skin grafts and the normal skin (16.33-/+5.89 vs 26.57-/+3.46, P=0.007). The thickness of the basal membrane of the skin grafts was similar to that of normal skin, and no significant difference was found in the number of fibroblasts and newly generated capillaries between them.

CONCLUSIONThe mid- and long-term histopathology and ultrastructures of the composite skin graft in the extremities are similar to those of normal skin, suggesting satisfactory effect of the skin grafts.
