Objective To analyse the imaging variety and characteristics of vertebral body with ischemic compression fractures.Methods 11 patients whose initial diagnosis was osteoporotic vertebral compressed fractures while the final diagnosis was ischemic vertebral compression fractures were followed-up.During their subsequent visit 11 cases were undergone radiographic examination and the morphologic and the characteristics of variety of the vertebral body with compressed fractures were observed under X-ray fluoroscopy in the different position.8 cases were undergone spiral CT scan.The all imaging data of 11 cases were analysed.Results The dynamic imaging findings of the compressed vertebral body in 11 cases were progressive vertebral collapse and kyphosis.The collapsed vertebral bodies were flat in morphology in 8 cases,biconcave in 3 cases.The vacuum cleft was present in all collapsed vertebral bodies.Conclusion The imaging features of ischemic vertebral compressed fractures are of certain characteristic.

AIM:To observe the effects on human keratocytes by cationic liposome LipofectamineTM 2000(LF2000).to investigate the efficiency and safe range applied in human keratocytes,and establish basis for gene therapy of human keratocytes.METHODS: Human keratocytes cultured in vivo within 3 to 5 passages were used in experiment after being identified.The effects on proliferation of cultured human keratocytes by LF2000 with different concentrations and time were evaluated By MTT:the effects of LF2000 on the survival rate and its relation with 5,10,20,40.80mg/L concentration and time were detected by trypan blue staining.related with concentration and time.The cellular proliferation and survival rate declined when concentration of LF2000 was above certain level,and this effect increased as time became longer.LF2000 had no effect with concentration under 40mg/L for 24 hours. CONCLUSION:LF2000 did ont cause cytotoxicity during a concentration range"tested",and it is hoped to play an important role in gene therapy of human keratocytes.

AIM: To observe the morphologic characters and the expression of vimentin on human lens epithelial cells (hLECs)cultured on laminin and fibronectin.METHODS: The primarily and secondarily hLECs were cultured on plates treated with laminin or fibronectin. The feature of hLECS was observed and recorded using an inverse microscope with digital camera and statistical analysis was applied. MTT assay was used to show the growth curve of subcultured cells (the 3rd passage). Immunofluorescent staining was used to demonstrate the morphologic change in vimentin expression in the 3rd passaged hLECs.RESULTS: The hLECs in laminin or fibronectin group grew out significant earlier than the untreated group. The cells could be subcultured fluendly in those two treated groups,while only a few survival cells were found in the untreated group. But the hLECs could undergo apoptosis in laminin group at the terminal phase of their life cycle, while lentoid bodies emerged in fibronectin treated group. There were more viable cells in the fibronectin group from the 4th to the 7th day by MTT reaction. Immunofluorescent staining showed a clear morphological difference between the two groups.CONCLUSION: Laminin provide a suitable growth microenvironment for the hLECs while fibronectin promotes the cells proliferation and differentiation.

Objective:To evaluate the effects of 2 kinds of fiber posts with different optical conductivity on the polymerization of resin cement in deep root canal.Methods:16 human premolars with single root were decoronated and randomly divided into 2 groups(n=8),which were restored using fiber posts with and without optical conductivity(i-TFC optical fiber post and Panavia post) respectively.Fiber posts were luted with light-curing resin cement and light cured.3 dentin slabs with fiber posts located at cervical,middle and apical 1/3 were harvested from each root.Knoop microhardness(HK) of the resin cement in each slab was measured using microindentation and the relative curing rate (RCR) was also examined,data were submitted to two-way ANOVA.Results:As the depth in the canal increased,the HK and RCR of the resin cement was decreased in both groups.At the cervical and middle 1/3 HK and RCR were not statistically different between the 2 groups(P＞0.05).At the apical 1/3 of the optical and Panavia group,the RCR of the resin cement was 69.89％ and 50.05％ (P＜0.05),the HK was 33.25 ± 3.04 and 23.08 ± 5.93 (P＜0.05),respectively.Conclusion:The optical fiber post is useful in promoting the polymerization of the resin cement in deep root canal.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for promoting the priority use of essential medicines. METHODS:The use amount ratio of essential medicines in 2 third-level grade-A hospitals in Beijing from 2011 to 2013 was statistically investigated. And the literatures related to policies of essential medicines and application were retrieved for in-depth analysis. RESULTS:The use amount ratios of essential medicines in the outpatient and emergency departments in Beijing Hospital of Ministry of Health from 2011 to 2013 were respectively 24.04%,23.10% and 22.76%;and the use amount ratios of essential medicines of inpatients were respectively 16.56%,14.52% and 12.04%. The use amount ratios of essential medicines in the outpatient and emergency depart-ments in Beijing Friendship Hospital(a pilot hospitals of cancelling drug addition medical reform)in the 3 years were respectively 21.59%,19.85% and 22.93%;the use amount ratios of essential medicines of inpatients were respectively 17.70%,17.62% and 15.89%. The use amount ratios of essential medicines did not meet 25%-30% of the requirements. CONCLUSIONS:Cancelling the drug addition and adjusting the types and quantity of essential medicine list had no obvious effects on the use amount ratios of gen-eral third-level grade-A hospitals. It is suggested to promote the priority use of essential medicines by systems of medical insurance total amount prepayment,single disease payment or diagnosis related groups-based prepayment and the free policy of essential medi-cines,rather than administrative order.

ObjectiveTo explore the changes of serum high sensitive C-reaction protein (HS-CRP) and matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and their effects in nursing.Methods103 ACS patients, including 56 cases of unstable angina (UA)) and 47 cases of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), and other 40 persons (no abnormal results in coronary artery angiography, selected as control group) were examined for serum levels of HS-CRP and MMP-9. The difference among the groups was analyzed.ResultsThe HS-CRP levels of UA group, AMI group and control group were (3.87± 0.76 )g/L, (4.12 ±0.67)g/L and (1.67±0.38)g/L respectively; MMP-9 were (113.25±7.76)ng/ml, (193.09±25.87)ng/ml and (42.05±3.81)ng/ml respectively. The concentrations of HS-CRP and MMP-9 of ACS patients were significatly higher than those of the control group (P<0.01).ConclusionThe changes of HS-CRP and MMP-9 concentrations of ACS patients are remarkable, and may be as the markers to instruct nursing works.

?AIM:To compare the coherence and difference on the fundus examination made with two kinds of optical coherence tomography ( OCT): Angio-OCT and fourier domain-optical coherence tomography ( FD-OCT) .?METHODS:Using Angio-OCT and FD-OCT to measure the retinal nerve fiber layer ( RNFL ) thickness, optic parameters, and ganglion cell complexes ( GCC ) thickness from 20 subjects respectively.The coherence was tested with Pearson's correlation coefficient, the difference was tested with paired Student t testing.?RESULTS:The total correlation of the RNFL thickness, optic parameters, GCC thickness made with two kinds of OCT was between 0.7-0.8;the RNFL thickness, optic disk area etc.made with the Angio-OCT were lower than those made with FD-OCT except for the GCC thickness.?CONCLUSION: The results made with two kinds of OCT from the same subject has certain coherence, but cannot be compared directly.
