OBJECTIVE:The relative content of trichosanthin (TCS) of the calli induced from the leaves of Trichosanthes kirilowii Maxim. was measured and a comparison between the calli and the root was made. METHODS:TCS was obtained by the fractional precipitate with acetone from the homogenate of the root or the calli. To examine and measure TCS, several methods, such as immuno-precipitation reaction, SDS-PAGE and electrophoregram scanning, were usde. RESULTS:The results of immuno-precipitation reaction and SDS-PAGE showde that TCS existed in the calli and in the root of T.kirilowii Maxim.. It was found that TCS was the richest component in the acetone precipitated crude extract of the calli with a relative content of 44.22% TCS in the extract, though the absolute content of TCS in the calli was less than that in the root. CONCLUSION:Extracting TCS from the calli derived from leaves has not been reported previously. The absolute content of TCS in the root is 2.66 times more than that in the calli.

The level of HLA-antibody and sensitization can be predicated by the determination of panel reactive antibody(PRA)which is of great significance in preventing hyperaeute and accelcrated rejection.The sensitivity of PRA is markedly higher than CDC.The level of PRA(positive rate above 50%)is closely relevant,to the degree of rejection and the decrease of graft survival.Although plasma exchange(PE)can be used to decrease the level of PRA before transplantation to prevent hyperacute and accelerated rejection,good HLA-matching is more important in securing a successful graft patient.Control study between random panel lymphocytotoxicity test(RPLT)and PRA showed that RPLT is a simpler and more dependent and more easily practised method to predict the sensitivity of recipients of renal transplantation.

Objective To assess the correlation between the pregnancy‐associated plasma protein A (PAPP‐A)level with gesta‐tional diabetes mellitus(GDM )in primiparous women .Methods The nonparametric test and Logistic regression analysis were used to retrospectively analyze 168 pregnant women of GDM and 273 normal pregnant women ,including age ,body weight ,PAPP‐A ,freeβ‐human chorionic gonadotropin(fβ‐hCG) .Results The age had significant difference between GDM group and control group(P<0 .01) ,the PAPP‐A concentration and corrected multiple of the median (MoM )of PAPP‐A in the GDM group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0 .01) .Conclusion Low level of PAPP‐A during early pregnant stage in primiparas is strongly associated with GDM and can be used as the risk factor of GDM .

Objective To investigate the effects of nitric oxide (NO) and cholecystokinin (CCK) on the regulation of the motility of sphincter of Oddi (SO).Methods The basal pressure,action rate and contraction range of the SO were examined before and after the injection of CCK,sodium nitroprusside (SNP) and NG-nitroL-argininemethyl ester hydrochloride (L-NAME).The expression of neurons with positive expression of NO synthase was detected by immunohistochemical staining.The measurement data were analyzed by using the t test.Results The basal pressure,contraction rate and contraction range of the SO were (27 + 10)mm Hg (1 mm Hg =0.133 kPa),( 10 ± 3 ) times/minute and (32 + 8 ) mm Hg before injection of CCK,and (61 + 14) mm Hg,(64 +21 ) times/minute,(44 ± 15 ) mm Hg after injection of CCK of 20 ng/kg.After injection of CCK of 100 ng/kg,the basal pressure,contraction range and contraction rate of the SO were (77 ± 31 )mm Hg,(69 ± 18 ) times/minutes,(79 + 14) mm Hg when the inhibition effect of CCK reached peak,and were ( 140 ± 21 ) mm Hg,( 129 ± 25 )times/minutes,( 173 ± 63 ) mm Hg when the excitatory effect of CCK reached peak.After injection of SNP into the common bile duct,the basal pressure,contraction range and contraction rate of the SO decreased significantly ( t =3.706,5.183,P < 0.05),while the 3 indexes increased significantly after injection of SNP (t =5.859,3.588,P <O.05).Conclusion Different from physiological dose (20 ng/kg) of CCK,large dose of CCK enhances motility of SO intensively.NO relaxes SO,which may play an important role in the inhibitor pathway of CCK.

Objective To discuss the clinical application of individualized strategy of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in the treatment of bile duct stenosis after liver transplantation (LT).Methods Fifty-two patients,including 40 men and 12 women,aged 54.3 ± 9.1 years old,who suffered from bile duct stenosis and accepted 88 times of ERCP from June 2014 to May 2016 in our department were investigated.The procedures,clinical features and biochemical criteria were analyzed retrospectively.Results According to the treating occasions and clinical symptoms,single plastic stent,dilatation combined with single plastic stent,and dilatation combined with multiple plastic stents were chosen to use.ERCP in 8 patients out of 52 patients failed technically,and the therapeutic efficacy was 82.7%.The treatment duration was 8.2 ± 2.9 months.The recurrence rate was 4.7% (2 cases) during the follow-up period.The most common complications were postERCP pancreatitis (2.3%) and cholangitis (3.4%),which would be cured by conservative treatment in most cases.Conclusion ERCP,as an effective and safe method,could be used as the first choice or bridge treatment for bile duct stricture after LT.We recommend individualization strategy,including step by step mode and different combinations of PTC or endoscopic procedures,in order to improve clinical efficacy of all kinds of stricture.

To popularization and improvement of on-the-spot rescueability is a vital means to reduce the accidental disability rate and the mortality rate,which is also a prospective concept of health.To popularize on-the -spot rescue knowledge and to improve self and mutual medical aid is a strongly public welfare and is the manifestation of social responsibility as well as respect for life.Based onthe investigation of on-the-spot rescue ability among three higher vocational college students in Shaanxi,this paper pointed out that the popularity rate of on-the -spot rescue knowledge was low among higher vocational college students,which no longer kept pace with the demand of social development and occupational requirement.It also analyzed the importance and urgency of improving higher vocational students'on-the-spot rescue ability from the perspective of social ethics.Strengthening the propaganda and training self-rescue skills might be a possible way to enhance students' on-the-spot rescue ability.

The relationship between the precision of the estimated sampling variances and the number of samples was quantitatively established. It revealed that the product of the standard deviation of the estimated samplingvariance and square root of the number of samples was a constant. Monte Carlo simulation technique was employed to verify the equation. Populations with Gaussian,unifohn random and multi-nomial(taking silicon carbide material as an example) distributions were studied with satisfactory results.
