Technical standards were supports that not only for any profession’s development, but also for the basic means of modern quality control.Forensic clinical medicine has developed nearly 40 years in china, there are 23 normative technical documents at present, the range of its application has been expanding with time, the caseload has been more than 1 million pieces per year all the country. Reviewing these standards, it can be seen: Technital standard of forensic clinical medicine has absorbed a large number of advanced international ideas, assimilating plenty of practice experience at the same time, standard's system has been initially formed, it has become one of the important means to guarantee the quality of medicolegal expertise. Certainly, the construction of forensic clinical standardization in China is still an arduous task, there are also many outstanding contradiction in the existing standards, our studies on international standards were not in-depth, and so on. In the future, forensic science experts still need to strengthen the companion study of technical standards and laws or regulations, intensify tracing and evaluating of international standards in order to form more adaptive and advanced technical standards.

Objective To study the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS),endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in human gastric cancer and their relationship with tumor angiogenesis and to investigate the interaction of NOS and VEGF in gastric cancer.Methods The expression and distribution of VEGF, iNOS and eNOS in 34 gastric cancer specimens were detected with immunohistochemistry. Microvessel density (MVD) was counted with FⅧRAg immune specific staining.Results The expression rates of iNOS, eNOS and VEGF in 34 gastric cancers were 73.5%, 82.4%and 91.2%respectively. The expression of VEGF had a significant positive relation with iNOS, but not with eNOS. The MVDs of VEGF or iNOS positive gastric cancers were obviously higher than those of VEGF or iNOS negative gastric cancers. There was no significant difference between the MVDs of eNOS positive gastric cancers and eNOS negative ones. Conclusion MVD increases with increase of expression of VEGF and iNOS in gastric cancer. It is indicated that VEGF and iNOS can promote gastric cancer angiogenesis. VEGF and iNOS have a significant positive correlation, which suggests that in human gastric cancer, iNOS plays an important role in the production and action of VEGF.

The theory of cancer stem cells proposed that recurrence and metastasis of liver cancer are closely related to liver cancer stem cells.The traditional surgical treatment of liver cancer simply kills those rapidly proliferating tunor cells instead of eliminating hepatic cancer stem cells which play decisive role in recurrence and metastasis.As far as people have concerned,there are many signaling pathways and regulatory factors modulating liver cancer stem cells,such as the Wnt/β-catenin pathway,TGF-β pathway,Notch pathway,Hedgehog pathway,hepatitis B virus,as well as epigenetics.Further studies on regulatory mechanisms of liver cancer stem cells are of great significance,in hope of providing new evidence for treatment and prevention of recurrence and metastasis of liver cancer.

Quantitative immunoassay technique is the common method of quantitative detection in clinical laboratory. Several important branches of quantitative immunoassay were formed by changing the tracer or the Antigen-antibody complex separation method, including radioimmunoassay, fluorescent immunoassay, enzyme immunoassay, chemiluminescence, colloidal gold, immuno-turbidimetric analysis and homogeneous immunoassay. Different immunoassay techniques have their own characteristics, also apply to different detecting conditions in clinic. This paper reviewed several common kinds of quantitative immunoassay technology, and discussed both their advantages and disadvantages, which provide reference for the application and development of clinical testing technology.

Objective To establish a Alzheimer dementia(AD) model in mice. Methods The C57BL/6 mice were lesioned with ibotenic acid in Nucleus basalis of Meynert(NBM). Behavioral tests by eight-arm radial maze were conducted 8 weeks, and immunohistochemical staining of choline acetyltransferase(ChAT), serotonin(5-HT), GAD(GABA), amyloid-?protein (AP) was conducted 12 weeks after NBM lesioning. Results In NBM lesioned mice, the ChAT-positive neurons, serotonin-positive neurons, and GAD-positive neurons in right NBM reduced, and ChAT-positive neurons reduced most evidently. At the same time, the ChAT-positive fibers in prefrontal and parietal cortices decreased significantly, serotonin-positive axons slightly, accompanied by heavily AP co-expression. On the contrary, there was no change of GAD-positive neurons in cortex. The working memory error increased significantly.Conclusion Ibotenic acid lesioning in NBM can provide as a model of AD in that it produces deafferentation of cholinergic system and recent memory disruption.

Objective To compare the value of dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI(DCE-MRI) and diffusion weight-imaging(DWI) in differentiating hepatic epithelioid angiomyolipoma (HEAML) from hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods The MR data of 15 HEAML and 50 HCC proved surgically and pathologically were analyzed retrospectively.The DCE-MRI and DWI were performed preoperatively.The size, location, margin, T1-weighted images(T1WI),T2-weighted images(T2WI) and DWI signal intensity(SI),enhancement pattern, central vessel, early draining vein, pseudocapsule were recorded.The apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value was also calculated.The differences of these MR features between two groups were compared statistically.Results There was one lesion in each patient.For all 15 HEAML lesions, early draining vein, central vessel and pseudocapsule were displayed in 8,11 and 6 lesions, respectively.The wash in and slow out enhancement pattern was shown in 10 lesions and wash in and wash out pattern shown in others (5/15).The mean ADC value was (1.15±0.31)×10-3 mm2/s.For all 50 HCC lesions, early draining vein, central vessel and pseudocapsule were displayed in 6,5 and 45 lesions, respectively.29 lesions were shown as wash in and wash out enhancement pattern and the others (21/50) as wash in and slow out pattern.The mean ADC value was (1.23±0.29)×10-3 mm2/s.There were significant differences in these MR features including draining vein, central vessel and pseudocapsule (P<0.05), but no differences in size, location, margin, SI(T1WI, T2WI and DWI), dynamic enhancement pattern, ADC value(P>0.05) between HEAML and HCC.Conclusion DCE-MRI is more helpful in differentiating HEAML from HCC than DWI.

Objective To explore effect of treatment of a non-surgical spinal decompression system(SDS) on neck muscle surface electromyography(EMG)of patients with cervical spondylotic radiculopathy(CSR).Methods Sixty patients with CSR in Department of Rehabilitation Medicine at The First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University in China between February 2014 and February 2016 were recruited and randomly divided into SDS group and control group,with 30 patients for each group.The SDS group and control group were treated with the SDS and general traction system for cervical traction respectively.Surface EMG telemeter was used to measure the surface EMG signals of the affected side cervical erector spinae muscle and sternocleidomastoid with the score of averaged EMG value(AEMG)and the median frequency(MF)as surface electromyogram signal evaluation indexes,and VAS and NDI as therapeutic effect evaluation indexes after a course of treatment.The data before and after the treatment were statistiacaly analyzed.Results During the first traction with tradtional traction or SDS,AEMG values of the cervical paraspinal muscle and sternocleidomastoi were significantly decreased and MF values significantly increased as compared with those before the traction (all P＜0.05).After a course of treatment,AEMG values of affected side cervical erector spinae muscle and sternocleidomastoi of SDS group were significantly decreased as compared with those before the treatment,and they were significantly lower in SDS group than in ordinary group (all P＜0.05);and MF values of affected side cervical erector spinae muscle and sternocleidomastoi in SDS group were significantly increased as compared with those before the treatment,and they were significantly higher in the SDS group than in the ordinary group (all P＜0.05).VAS and NDI scores of the two groups after a course of treatment were significantly lower than those before the treatment (P＜0.05),and VAS and NDI scores were significantly lower in the SDS group than in the ordinary group (P＜0.05).Conclusion SDS traction is superior to ordinary traction in relieving pain,improving function,relaxing neck muscles and alleviating muscle fatigue.
