1.Recent advances on associated antigens of chronic myeloid leukemia
Journal of Leukemia & Lymphoma 2012;21(12):766-768
Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is one of myeloid malignancies,and there is no effective treatment method at present.Nowaday,many studies report that combined treatment and adoptive immunotherapy can rebuild immunological function of patients,it's an ideal method of cure CML.So searching optimal leukemia-associated antigens and researching the number of antigen specific T lymphocytes is the key to treat CML.

Objective To characterize the nasal resonance of children with spastic cerebral palsy by comparing it with that of ordinary school-age children.Methods The mean nasalance scores (MNSs) of 90 normal school-age children and 62 school-age children with spastic cerebral palsy were measured and compared.Results (1) Age has significant effects on the MNS of/a/,/i/and/m/ in ordinary children,but has almost no effect on the MNS of/u/.The MNS of/a/,/i/,/u/ and/m/ in children with spastic cerebral palsy does not change with age.(2) Sex only has a significant relationship with the MNS of/i/ in ordinary children,but does not significantly predict the other MNSs.(3) The MNS of/a/ of children with spastic cerebral palsy is significantly lower than that of ordinary children,and their MNS of/i/ and /u/ is significantly greater than those of ordinary children.Conclusions The MNS of /a/,/i/and /u/first increases and then decreases with age in ordinary children,while the MNS of/m/ increases gradually.Children with spastic cerebral palsy did not show the same trends and demonstrated a state of retardation of nasal resonance.Children with spastic cerebral palsy are more likely to display hypernasality than ordinary children.

Objective To evaluate the current state of glycemie control in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who have received oral antidiabetic agents in the out-patient clinic,and the efficacy and safety of optimized regiments of gliclazide modified-release tablets (Diamicron MR, SERVIER, Tianjin) in patients with failed glycemic control (HbA1c 6.5%). Methods The patients with type 2 diabetes were enrolled from 54 hospitals in more than 20 cities and received long-term (more than 3 months) oral antidiabetic agents. HbA1c was measured and the success rate of HbA1c reduction was evaluated. The patients who failed to achieve glycemic control (HbA1c 6. 5%) and received daily multiple-dosing insulin secretagogues were provided with the optimized treatment regimen, consisting of replacing daily multiple-dosing insulin secretagogues with single-dosing gliclazide sustained-release tablets. Clinical efficacy and safety were evaluated after three months treatment. Results The survey of glycemic control revealed that the mean HbA1c of 5 586 patients with diabetes mellitus was (7.97±2.89)% ,and the success rate (HbA1c≤6.5%) was 14. 1%. Further more, HbA1c decreased from (8.23±4.00)% before optimization to (6.86±2.24)% after optimization with the average decrement of 1.37% (P<0. 001) and the success rate was raised to 34. 1%. The gliclazide modified-release tablets were well tolerated by most patients, only 2.6% of whom were reported to experience unconfirmed hypoglycemia. Conclusion The success rate of glycemic control was low in Chinese out-patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus receiving oral antidiabetic agents in the clinic. The optimized regimen of gliclazide modified-release tablets taken once daily can down-regulate glycemic levels and increase the success rate of HbA1c reduction,and thus plays efficiently and safely a key role in the optimized management of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Objective: To investigate mandibular movement characteristics in patients with skeletal class Ⅲ malocclusion during chewing different foods. Methods: 14 skeletal class Ⅲ adult patients with mandibular asymmetry, 10 patients without mandibular asymmetry and 10 normal control cases were chosen to find out the different condylar and incisor movement area ratio based on the aid of ARCUSdigma mandibular moving track analysis system. Results: First,during chewing soft food, the condylar tracing length of skeletal class Ⅲ adult patients with mandibular asymmetry were significant different in sagittal and horizontal plane compared with the other two groups(P<0.05), while the incisor point trajectory difference was not statistically significant. Second, the condylar and incisor movement characteristic showed much more different among three samples during chewing brittle food(P<0.05). Third, in sagittal plane, the deflective condylar movement area ratio was significantly higher than that of the other two groups during chewing hand food(P<0.01). Conclusion: The mandibular movement in skeletal class Ⅲ adult patients are affected obviously by the shape and texture of food. Asymmetric lower mandible patients have a greater preponderance of this phenomenon.

SUMMARY Hyperparathyroidism is the clinical syndrome that results from elevated circulating parathyroid hormones,leading to multiple systems manifestations,and is divided into three kinds: primary, secondary and ternary.This patient’s main chief complaint was intermittent melena for 3 days,with the diagnosis of upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage according to endoscopy. Hypercalcemia, hypophosphatemia and high level of circulating parathyroid hormone and chronic renal failure were also found during hospitalization. Furthermore, MIBI showed a parathyroid adenoma located near the isthmus in the lower part of the left lobe. The patient had undergone nephrectomy because of kidney carcinoma 2 years ago. Primary hyperparathyroidism usually has the common gastrointestinal syndrome , but upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage reported as the chief complaint is rare and we had never seen similar reports before.

Objective:To measure serum levels of salusins and catestatin and analyze their correlation in patients with essential hypertension (EH) .Methods :A total of 90 EH patients were selected as hypertension group .According to blood pressure level ,they were further divided into hypertension stage 1 group (n=31) ,hypertension stage 2 group (n=30) and hypertension stage 3 group (n=29) .Another 40 normotensive subjects undergoing physical examina‐tion were selected as normal control group .Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to measure ser‐um levels of salusins and catestatin , and the correlation between serum levels of salusins and catestatin was analyzed . Results :Compared with normal control group ,there were significant reductions in serum levels of salusins [ (3.01 ± 0.66) ng/ml vs .(1.44 ± 0.42) ng/ml ,(1.35 ± 0.89) ng/ml ,(1.41 ± 0.32) ng/ml] and catestatin [(132.24 ± 7.55) ng/ml vs .(89.22 ± 6.12) ng/ml vs .(82.51 ± 8.37) ng/ml ,(83.34 ± 4.47) ng/ml] in hypertension stage 1 ,stage 2 and stage 3 group , P<0.01 all;compared with stage 1 group ,there were significant reductions in serum catestatin levels in stage 2 and stage 3 group (P<0.01 both) ,but there were no significant difference in serum salusins level a‐mong three groups of hypertension ( P>0.05 all) .Pearson correlation analysis indicated that serum salusins level had no correlation with catestatin level ( r=0.363 , P>0.05) in normal control group ,while serum salusins level was significant positively correlated with catestatin level (r=0.723 ,P<0.01) in hypertension group .Conclusion:Serum levels of salusins and catestatin significantly reduce and they is positive correlation in patients with hyperten‐sion .Along with blood pressure level rises ,serum catestatin level reduces .

Objective:To explore changes of plasma levels of catestatin (CST)and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP)in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF)and their correlation.Methods:A total of 60 CHF patients treated in our department of cardiology from Jun 2014 to Dec 2014 were enrolled as CHF group,another 60 healthy subjects un- dergoing physical examination were regarded as normal control group.Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay was used to measure plasma levels of CST and BNP in two groups,then the results were compared.Linear correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between plasma levels of CST and BNP.Results:Compared with normal control group,there were significant rise in plasma levels of CST [(0.40±0.15)ng/L vs.(0.88±0.34)ng/L]and BNP [(30.84±12.56)ng/L vs.(678.21±120.35)ng/L]in CHF group,P<0.01 both.Linear correlation analysis indi- cated that plasma CST level was significant positively correlated with BNP level (r=0.38,P<0.05).Conclusion:Catestatin level is significant positively correlated with the most sensitive cardiac function index—brain natriuretic peptide level,suggesting that it could be used as a new biochemical marker diagnosing or excluding heart failure.
