Objective To investigate the expression and diagnostic significance of CK19,CD56 and p53 protein in papillary thyroid microcarcinoma and thyroid papillary hyperplasia.Methods The expressions of CK19、CD56 and p53 protein were detected in 52 cases of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma and 31 of thyroid papillary hyperplasia by iImmunohistochemical methods.Results The positive rate of CK19 expression was 100 ％ (52/52) of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma and 29.0 ％ (9/31) in 31 of thyroid papillary hyperplasia.There was significant difference between two groups (P ＜ 0.001).CK56 in 2 cases (3.8 ％) of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma appeared mild positive expression,and in 20 cases (66.7 ％) of thyroid papillary hyperplasia positive expression (P ＜ 0.001).The positive expression rates of p53 were 69.2 ％(36/52) in papillary thyroid microcarcinoma and 6.5 ％ (2/31) in thyroid papillary hyperplasia (P ＜ 0.001).Conclusion CK19,CD56 and p53 may be important value on differential diagnosis of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma from thyroid papillary hyperplasia,and they are the indispensable markers of differential diagnosis.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of tirofiban,a platelet glycoproteinⅡb/Ⅲa Inhibitor,in percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)of patients with acute non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarct(NSTEMI).Methods:A total of 114 patients with acute NSTEMI were enrolled in the trial from Sep.2005 to Jan.2007;they were randomly divided into 2 groups:tirofiban group(n=57)and placebo group(n=57).Patients in tirofiban group were given tirofiban for 24 h after PCI.All patients were routinely given heparin,aspirin and clopidogrel before CPI.The composite occurrence of death,myocardial infarction(MI),need for target vessel revascularization(TVR)after PCI,and the adverse effects(hemorrhage and thrombocypenia)were compared between the 2 groups.Results:One(1.8%)patient had angina pectoris and the other(1.8%)developed subacute thrombus in control group within 24 h after PCl;there was no such event in the tirofiban group.Two(3.6%)patients developed angina pectoris and 2(3.6%) developed subacute thrombus within 30 days after PCI in control group;one patient(1.8%)in birofiban group developed angina pectoris and one patient in birofiban group developed subacute thrombus.Each group had one case(1.8%)of upper digestive tract bleeding during hospitalization.No intracranial hemorrhage,skin/ mucosa hemorrhage,thrombocytopenia,or-death occurred in the 2 groups.Intravenous tirofiban treatment reduced the composite occurrence of death of NSTEMI patients after PCI(P

Objective To investigate the relapse risk assessment for patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia(APL)through testing PML-RAR? fusion gene by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RQ-PCR).Methods Relative copies of PML-RAR? fusion gene were measured in 25 patients with APL in phases of first diagnosis,complete remission(CR)and relapse.The minimal residual disease(MRD)situations were also monitored in 6 of the 25 patients.Results Different PML-RAR? fusion gene expression levels were observed in patient groups of different phases of the disease.(P

Objective To investigate the distribution,drug resistance characteristics and genotypes of extended-spectrum-lactamases (ESBLs)-producing strain in pathogenic gram-negative rod in infection of newborn in Guangzhou.Methods The standard was performed by the production for ESBLs by phenotypic screening and confirmatory test provided by the National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards in 2001.The method of polymerase chain reaction(PCR) amplification was perbonmed and DNA sequences were analyzed by ESBLs gene sequencing.Results Total of 71 un-repicated and consecutive Gram-negative bacilli were isolated from 13 hospitals in Guangzhou,and the prevalence of ESBLs-producing clinical Gram-negative isolates was 59.2%(42/71).The PCR results showed that most pathogenic bacilli which infected newborn could be separated two or more genes of ESBLs.The type of TEM,SHV,CTX-M1,CTX-M9,OXA was 35.6%, 26.7% ,10.9%,24.8%,2.0%,respectively.The result of drug resistance monitoring showed that pathogenic gram-negative bacillui which infected newborn were Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumonia mostly.Most parts of them were drug fast and even multidrug resistant to the commonly used antibiotics.The sensitive drugs were lmipenem(the rate of sensitivty 100%),cefoperazone/sulbactam(87.3%),piperacillin/tazbatam(85.3%),ceftazidime(82%),aztreonam(82%),cefepime(81.8%).Conclusions In Guangzhou,the incidence rate of ESBLs-producing strain are very high inpathogenic bacilli which infected in newborn and is multidrug resistance.The genetypes of produced ESBLs are TEM,SHV,CTX-M1,CTX-M9,OXA.

Untargeted metabolomics analysis of rhubarb and stewed rhubarb samples shows that the determined samples clearly clustered in to two groups, indicating that the processing procedures caused changes in the composition and/or content of components in rhubarb. Ten components were identified by UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS and references, which intensity declined in rhubarb after processing. Targeted metabolomics analysis of rhubarb and stewed rhubarb samples indicated that aloe-emodin, rhein, emodin and physcion were detected with lower intensity in stewed rhubarb samples than in rhubarb samples. Metabolomics analysis of rhubarb and stewed rhubarb indicated the various components of rhubarb changed after processing.

Objective To review the diagnosis and treatment of epithelioid angiomyolipoma of the kidney. Methods Five cases of epithelioid angiomyolipoma of the kidney were retrospectively analyzed in the aspects of imaging and pathologic characteristics. There were 3 males and 2 females with average age of 46 years (ranging from 26-64 years). There were 3 patients complained of pains of lumber. Two cases were found renal masses in routine physical examination. The mass diameter was 2.9-10. 1 cm. Two cases were diagnosed as angiomyolipoma and three as malignant tumors as kidney cancer, tumor of the adrenal gland or tumor of the liver with ultrasound and CT scan. Four of the 5cases accepted partial nephrectomy and 1 with radical nephrectomy. Results Epithelioid angiomyolipoma of the kidney was composed of abnormal thick parietal vessel, smooth muscle and adipose tissue in different proportional. The cytoplasm of epithelioid cells was acidophilia or lucency, which had acidophilia particles and abundant blood vessels. Epithelioid cells were round or polygon, surrounded to blood vessels, distributed in lipoid. The SMA, Vimentin and HMB45 were positive by immunohistochemisty. The post-operative histological diagnosis showed that all cases were epithelioid angiomyolipoma of the kidney. All patients were followed up for 2 to 12 months. No patients had locally recurrence or distant metastasis. Conclusions The diagnosis of epithelioid angiomyolipoma of the kidney relies on histopathology results. The immunohistochemical staining could be helpful for diagnosis and differential diagnosis.

Background More and more evidences suggest that the interaction of retinal progression of retinal diseases.Objective Present study was to investigate the primarily cultured and digested using explant culture method and trypsas acidic protein(GFAP) staining,S-100 staining and cytokine-18 staining co-cultured under the normoxia and hypoxia using transwell chamber,and the proliferation and migration of cultured RPE cells were examined using MTT and compared with only RPE cells cultured group at 3, 6, 24 and 48 hours.Results Over 90% of primarily cultured RPE cells showed the positive response for S-100.The proliferation and migration of RPE cells were significantly increased in hypoxia condition compared with normoxia condition (P＜0.01).In hypoxia group,amount of proliferation and migration of RPE cells in co-culture group were higher than the only RPE cells cultured group(P＜0.01).Conclusion Hypoxia appear to aggravate the proliferation and migration of RPE cells under the hypoxia status.
