Based on the lethal rate, positive and negative mutation rate, the optimal doses of UV, HNO2, UV + AO treating S. hygroscopicus NND-52-29 were determined. The mutant strain A19 that was obtained showed the derepres-sive property to glucose and the nigericin yield of A19 could be increased by 128%. When it was subcultured combined with natural screening, its stability was rather satisfied.

pcDNA3.1/Hygro(-)+pCMV?. Conclusions Transactivation competence of genotype B HBx was higher than that of genotype C HBx, while the antiproliferative and apoptosis effects of genotype B HBx was lower than of genotype C HBx. B and C genotype-specific functional differences of HBx may closely co-related with the pathogenicity of HBV.

Objective To construct a suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) library of human renal cell carcinoma. Methods Poly A + RNA was isolated from human renal cell carcinoma (RCC) tissues and matched normal kidney tissues, respectively. Then double strand cDNA were synthesized and restricted by Rsa I.RCC cDNA were divided into two groups and ligated with either adaptor 1 or adaptor 2.After RCC cDNA hybridized with normal kidney cDNA twice and underwent nested PCR,the PCR products were cloned into pT Adv vector and transformed E.coli TOP10F′.Some positive clones randomly picked up were digested and sequenced. Results The SSH library contained 414 positive clones. Random analysis of 265 clones with enzyme restriction showed that 246 clones contained cDNA fragments which were distributed mainly between 300～900 bp. Among 40 arbitrary clones derived from the above 246 clones, No.170 clone is a previously unknown sequence and the other 39 clones were derived from 35 known genes. Conclusions The quality of the SSH library of human RCC is reliable and its construction would lay the foundation for further screening differentially expressed genes in RCC.

Objective Through the correlation study of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) and chronic heart failure to investigate the pathogenesis of chronic heart failure and provide a new method for chronic heart failure diagnosis.Methods One hundred and twenty-eight chronic heart failure patients (chronic heart failure group) were involved in this study.According to the level of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF),they were divided into LVEF slightly lowing group (LVEF 40％-50％,50 patients),LVEF moderately lowing group (LVEF 30％-39％,35 patients),LVEF severely lowing group (LVEF ＜30％,43 patients).Fifty healthy people was as control group.The level of FGF-23,parathyroid hormone (PTH),creatinine (Cr),urea nitrogen (BUN),blood calcium,blood phosphorus,N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) were detected.The patients in two groups were performed color Doppler ultrasonography.Results The level of FGF-23,blood phosphorus,PTH,left ventricular mass index (LVMI),NT-proBNP in chronic heart failure group were significantly higher than those in control group [68.44(55.85-94.73) ng/L,34.18(30.57-38.87) ng/L,(1.13 ± 0.13) mmol/L vs.(1.02± 0.12) mmol/L,(15.51 ± 3.99) ng/L vs.(9.97 ± 0.89) ng/L,(112.27 ± 52.02) g/m2 vs.(71.37 ± 12.95) g/m2,(6 265.3 ± 15 991.6) ng/L vs.(76.12 ± 51.80) ng/L](P ＜ 0.01).The level of blood calcium,glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in chronic heart failure group were significantly lower than those in control group [(2.28 ±0.16) mmol/L vs.(2.48 ±0.13) mmol/L,(78.28 ± 14.20) ml/ (min ·1.73 m2) vs.(85.03 ± 14.44)ml/ (min·1.73 m2)] (P ＜ 0.01).Spearman correlation analysis showed that FGF-23 had positive correlation with age (r =0.256,P ＜0.01),blood phosphorus (r =0.326,P ＜0.01),PTH (r =0.584,P ＜0.01),NT-proBNP (r =0.799,P ＜ 0.01),LVMI (r =0.540,P ＜ 0.01),and had negative correlation with blood calcium (r =-0.308,P ＜ 0.01),GFR(r =-0.527,P ＜ 0.01).The level of FGF-23 was increased when LVEF reduced.Conclusions It has significant correlation between the level of FGF-23 and the degree of chronic heart failure.It suggests that the level of FGF-23 can evaluate the myocardial systolic function and ventricular remodeling.

Objective To investigate the clinical significance of BiPAP mechanical ventilation in the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)with type Ⅱ respiratory failure.Methods A total 56 patients suffering from respiratory failure due to exacerbation of COPD were randomly divided into treatment group (BiPAP plus routine therapy)and control group(routine comprehensive therapy).Blood gases,respiratory rates,heart rates,scores of the activity of accessory respiratory muscles,incubation rate,fatality rate were observed.Results In the treatment group,PO2 greatly increased,PCO2 greatly decreased,pH improved significantly,and respiratory rate,heart rate and scores of the activity of accessory respiratory muscles greatly decreased.The incubation rate and the fatality rate were significantly lower in the treatment group than those in the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion BiPAP mechanical ventilation plus routine therapy on COPD with type Ⅱ respiratory failure can improve the curative effects,lessen respiratory muscle fatigue,and decrease the need for incubation and fatality rate.

Objective To observe the effect of ephedrine combined propofol and fentanyl in painless induced abortion.Methods Eighty cases of patients (ASA Ⅰ) who apply painless induced abortion were randomly divided into two groups:observation group and control group,each group with 40 cases.Both of the groups were given fentanyl 1 μ g/kg and propofol 2 mg/kg with 2 mg/ml lidocaine; then observation group was given 0.08-0.15 mg/kg ephedrine according to the blood pressure.The heart rate,blood pressure and pulse oximetry (SpO2) of preinduction,3 min and 5 min after induction and 3 min after surgery and the recovery time was observed.Results There was no significant difference about heart rate,blood pressure and SpO2 preinduction,but there was significant difference on 3 min and 5 min after induction in control group in contrast to preinduction [(69.80 ± 7.08),(65.18 ± 5.16) times/min vs.(83.65 ± 8.12)times/min and (86.65 ± 8.60),(90.73 ± 8.35) mmHg (1 mmHg =0.133 kPa) vs.(128.45 ± 11.83) mmHg] (P ＜ 0.05),while observation group kept stable; there was no significant difference about SpO2 and recovery time in both groups.Conclusion It is safe and effective to use ephedrine combined propofol and fentanyl in painless induced abortion.

OBJECTIVE To give an overview of our hospital′s actual infection situation and provide scientific data for nosocomial infection management.METHODS With a cross-sectional study,the infection rate was investigated.RESULTS The infection rate was 2.39%,and the most common infection site was lower respiratory tract(50.00%);the department of neurosurgory was with the highest infection rate;the risk factors for NI included: respiratory ventilator,tracheotomy,blood vessel catheter and indwelling catheter.CONCLUSIONS The departments with the higher infection rate should be given enhancing surveillance.Cleaning and antisepsis of environment,procedures of aseptico skills,compliance of washing hands and antibiotics management should be strengthened.

Objective To evaluae possible association between interleukin-1 beta (IL-1?) gene exon 5 polymorphism and childhood asthma.Methods The study was conducted in two different groups: asthmatic children(n=55) and healthy children(n=35). The IL-1? gene exon 5 polymorphism was genotyped by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis (PCR-RFLP). Results Frequencies of CC,CT and TT genotypes were 92.7%,7.3%,0, and frequencies of C,T allele were 96.4%,3.6% in asthmatic group. However, frequencies of CC,CA and AA genotypes were 85.7%,14.3%,0, and frequencies of C,T allele were 92.9% ,7.1% in healthy group. There were no significant difference in distribution of genotypes and allele frequencies between two groups.Conclusion IL-1? gene exon 5 polymorphism may not be associated with childhood asthma.
