Several proteins associated with apoptosis were analyzed to investigate the progress of presbycusis based on cell apoptosis. Four proteins of caspase-3, XIAP, Sir2 T1 and cytochrome C which were associated with apoptosis were selected. Influence and progress of four proteins on presbycusis were analyzed. Apoptosis is the key factor which causes presbycusis, including apoptosis of cochlear hair cells, cochlear spiral ganglion cells and primary auditory cortical neuron. There is a close relationship between the four proteins and apoptosis of hearing related cells. These four kinds of protein factors played a role in the progress of presbycusis and are expected to serve as a target for the treatment of presbycusis.

Objective To investigate the methylation status of the promoter of RASSF2A gene in the tissues of cervical cancer and its impacts in tumorigenesis.Methods Methylation-specific PCR (MSP) and RT-PCR techniques were applied to detect methylation status of RASSF2A gene promoter region and RASSF2A expression in tissues of 62 cervical cancer and 30 normal cervical specimens,respectively.Results Methylation frequency of RASSF2A gene in cancer tissue was higher than that in normal tissue (53.2 ％ vs 13.3 ％,P ＜ 0.05).The mRNA expression of RASSF2A in cancer tissue were less than those in normal tissue significantly (0.254 3 ±0.102 7 vs 0.623 4 ± 0.063 8,t =0.932,P ＜ 0.05).The mRNA expressed of RASSF2A gene was lower in methylated promoter group than that in unmethylated promoter group in cancer tissue samples significantly (0.118 2 ± 0.035 2 vs 0.301 2 ± 0.076 4,t =0.481,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Hypermethylation of RASSF2A gene in promoter region,which lead to the loss of RASSF2A gene expression,might play an important role in tumorigenesis of cervical cancer.

Objective: To probe into the relationship between integrin β1 expression in human cervical carcinoma HCE1 multicellular spheroids (HCE1/MCS) and their invasion into human umbilical vein endothelium cells (HUVEC), so as to assess the inhibitory effect of anti-integrin β1 monoclonal antibody P5D2 on the invasion of HCE1/MCS into HUVEC. Methods: A model of HUVEC monolayer invaded by HCE1/MCS was established (in brief, the HCE1 invading model). Morphology changes of the HCE1 invading model were observed under inverted microscope and analyzed by Motic Med System after P5D2 treatment. The expressions of β1 integrin on HCE1 monolayer cells, HCE1/MCS, HVUEC monolayer cells, and P5D2-treated HCE1 invading models were measured by immunocytochemistry SABC assay. Results: A HCE1 invading model was successfully established. The HCE1/MCS proliferated rapidly after culture, and on the 7th day the invading area of HCE1/MCS was 40.42 folds larger than the original HCE1/MCS. Invading areas of P5D2-treated HCE1/MCS were significantly smaller than that of the control group after 1, 4, 7 day (P<0.05, or P<0.01), with the invading area after 7 days reduced by (84.68±0.08) % compared with the control group. Integrin β1 expression in HCE1/MCS was significantly higher than that in HCE1 monolayer cells (P<0.01), and the expression was negative in HUVEC. Integrin β1 expression in P5D2-treated HCE1/MCS was significantly lower than that the in untreated HCE1/MCS (P<0.01). Conclusion: Upregulated expression of integrin β1 in HCE1/MCS and HCE1 invading model may be associated with their enhanced adhesion and invasion abilities. Anti-integrin β1 monoclonal antibody P5D2 can partially block the invasion of HCE1/MCS into HUVEC.

Objective: To analyze the correlation between third molar agenesis and craniofacial morphology by studying the location and number of congenital missing third molars and results of craniofacial cephalometric measurement. Methods: A total of 123 patients were included, including 64 patients in the control group without congenital third molar absence and 59 patients in the absence group with at least one third molar absent. Cephalometric measurements included FMA, IMPA, AR-Go, GoGn-Sn, Co-A, Co-Gn, ANS-Me, Go-Me, SN-MP, Ar-Go-Me, SNA, SNB, ANB, Y-axis angle, Y-axis length, Ar-Go, Go-Me, MP-OP, FH-PP, FH-OP, a total of 18 bone tissue indicators, U1-SN, U1-L1, U1-NA, L1-NB, U1-APo and L1-APo, a total of 6 dental indicators, and UL-EP, LL-EP and nasolabial angle, a total of 3 soft tissue indicators. The correlation between congenital agenesis of third molars and craniofacial morphology was analyzed. Results: The most common missing location of the third molar occured in the upper jaw and the most common number of missing teeth was one. In control group, Ar-Go-Me and SN-MP were larger (P<0.05), U1-SN, U1-NA, L1-NB, UL-EP and LL-EP were larger (P<0.05), and U1-L1 was smaller (P<0.01). There were no significant differences in Ar-Go and Go-Me between the two groups(P>0.05). Conclusion Patients with four third molars are more likely to have backward and downward rotation of the mandible and are more likely to develop into a convex facial type than patients with missing third molars, which has a higher correlation with hyperdivergent growth pattern and convex facial type.

Objective To evaluate the effects of different dosage of aspirin and clopidogrel on the platelet inhibition rate by thromboelastography (TEG)before stent-assisted embolization of aneurysms. Methods The clinical data of 57 patients with unruptured aneurysms treated by stent-assisted coil embolization in General Hospital of Nanjing Military Command were analyzed retrospectively. The patients were divided into a low dose group (aspirin 100 mg + clopidogrel 75 mg,26 cases)and a high dose group (aspirin 300 mg +clopidogrel 75 mg,31 cases). All the patients were treated with aspirin and clopidogrel before surgery. The blood samples were collected on day 3 after oral administration with anti-platelet aggregation drugs. TEG was used to detect the arachidonic acid (AA )-induced inhibition rate of platelet aggregation and adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-induced inhibition rate of platelet aggregation. The platelet inhibition and drug resistance,as well as ischemic complications in the perioperative period between the two groups were compared. Results (1 )The platelet inhibition rates:there was no significant difference in the inhibition rates of platelet aggregation of AA and ADP between low dose group and high dose group at day 3 after oral antiplatelet drugs [AA inhibition rate:(76 ± 21)% vs. (80 ± 21)%;ADP inhibition rate:(72 ± 26)% vs. (73 ± 29 )%;all P >0. 05 ]. (2 )Drug resistance:in the low dose group,the patients of aspirin and clopidogrel resistant were 2 cases(7. 7%)and 1 case(3. 8%),and the patients in high dose group were 3 cases (9. 7%)and 4 cases(12. 9%). No statistical significant difference in the aspirin and clopidogrel resistant was detected in the two groups (all P>0. 05). (3)The ischemic complications in the perioperative period:there was 1 case (3. 8%)with ischemic complications in the low dose group,and 2 cases (6. 5%)in the high dose group. There was no significance difference in the incidence of ischemic complications between the two groups(P >0. 05). Conclusion For patients treated with stent-assisted embolization of aneurysms,no difference could be detected in the inhibitory effect of platelet aggregation between low and high dose groups of aspirin.

Objective To study the applied value of diffusion weighted imaging-DWIBS(diffusion weighted imaging with background suppression) in detecting the body tumour.Methods 10 healthy volunteers and 20 patients with histologically proven tumour were examined by diffusion Weighted MR with different techniques of background/fat body signal suppression.STIR-EPI sequence and spin echo-echo planar imaging(SE-EPI) sequence with chemical shift selective(CHESS) pulse were compared in terms of their degree of fat suppression.The diffusion weighted imaging features of control group and patients with tumour were observed and the values of ADC were measured.Results Fat suppression with STIR-EPI sequence in neck,chest,spine and extremity was well and SE-EPI with CHESS pulse in chest,abdomen,pelvic was satisfying.Signal to noise ratio(SNR) wss higher in SE-EPI with CHESS than that in STIR.The glands,spleen,peripheral nerves,lymph nodes and so forth could be showed by DWIBS in control group.85% malignant lesions were well visualized and appeared as high signal intensity and lower signal intensity in similar PET imaging,but the lesions only in 3 patients are not well visualized including pancreas cancer(1 case),rectum cancer(1 case),prostate cancer(1 case).PET scan was performed in 3 patients and well corresponded with diffusion weighted imaging in 2 cases,the other one was not visualized on diffusion weighted imaging.The highest ADC of malignant tumors was(1.58?2.06)?10-3mm2/s,the lowest ADC of malignant tumors was(0.88?0.74)?10-3mm2/s,the mean values of ADC of malignant tumors was(1.34?0.79)?10-3mm2/s.Conclusion DWIBS is a new method of diffusion-weighted MR,it has high spatial resolution,high contrast to noise ratio(CNR) and high SNR. This technique can be used as a powerful screening tool for tumour and evaluating the pathological lesions by measuring the values of ADC.

Evidence-based medicine is advocated by WHO and adopted by developed countries for many years. In China, however, the selection of essential medicine and various medical insurance reimbursement schemes medicine is usually based on experts' experience of prescription practice which is under heavy critics resulting from the lack of related comparative efficacy and evidence-based research. The efficacy of Jian'ganle in prevention of drug-induced liver injury (DILI) caused by antituberculotics was evaluated in this study by comparison with Hugan Pian, glucuronolactone and reduced glutathione. Evidence was provided for relevant sectors such as Ministry for Human Resources and Social Security of the People's Republic of China and National Health and Family Planning Commission of the People's Republic of China to select and renew the Essential Medicine List (EML), the new rural cooperative medical scheme in China (NRCMS) list or the reimbursement list of industrial injury insurance. A total of 189 patients with initial pulmonary tuberculosis were divided into four groups who took antituberculotics combined with Jian'ganle, Hugan Pian, glucuronolactone and reduced glutathione respectively. Their liver function profile including alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), total bilirubin (TBIL), direct bilirubin (DBIL), total protein (TP), albumin (A) and globulin (G) were detected at admission as baseline and after treatment. The Jian'ganle group was compared with the three others by chi-square tests. In an aspect of maintaining bilirubin indexes normal, Jian'ganle was more efficacious than glucuronolactone. And Jian'ganle had a little more efficacy than reduced glutathione to maintain protein indexes normal as well. And the therapeutic regimen of antituberculotics combined with Jian'ganle was the best in treating tuberculosis and preventing DILI at the same time. The study showed that among the four hepatinicas which demonstrated similar prevention of DILI caused by antituberculotics, Jian'ganle has more advantages over the three others to some extent, which provides a reliable basis for health sectors to select and renew the EML, NRCMS List or the reimbursement list of industrial injury insurance.
