Objective To compare the clinical efficacy and safety of endoscopic papillary balloon dilation (EPBD) and endoscopic papillary balloon dilation (EPBD) combined with small endoscopic sphincterotomy (SEST) in treatment of large choledocholithiasis. Methods 78 patients with large choledocholithiasis from January 2014 to December 2015 were randomly divided into EPBD group, and combination treatment group. The level of bilirubin, transaminase, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) before and after the operation, the success rates of stone removal, serum amylase of 24 h after the operation, the operation times of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and whether complicated with postoperative pancreatitis were compared between the two groups. Results There was no significant difference of the success rates of stone removal, serum amylase of 24 h after the operation, the operation times of ERCP between the two groups. The level of bilirubin, transaminase, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) was declined after EPBD or EPBD and SEST, and the results of the two groups had no statistical significance (P > 0.05). Also there was no significant difference of the incidence of postoperative pancreatitis, postoperative bleeding and postoperative hyperamylasemia between the two groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion EPBD is worthy of promoting because it has a similar clinical efficacy and safety to EPBD and SEST in treatment of large choledocholithiasis.

Our college has applied French-English analogy-educating method ( trilingual education )to the medicinal French bilingual-educating course by means of the interactions of different languages. As the kin relations between English and French in the axea of medicine, as well as their interactions from the origin to the modem medical applications, it can be an effective method to use analogy-educating method in the French study course in medicine, which means that the multi-lingual interactions can be used in the bilingual, even the multi-lingual educating activities of bilinguai educating process of other subjects.

Chinese Medical Ethics 1994;0(05):-
There have emerged gradually serious one-sided benefits chasing behaviour over the past 10 years in many hospitals. In this article we've tried to analyze its scocial roots and disclose its harming effects which lead us to ethical misunderstanding and contradict serving tenets in our clinical practice. We also present these pertinent criteria of medical ethics and search after approaches for keeping away these mistakes repeatedly.

Objective To compare the clinical efficacy of covered and uncovered metal stents in treatment of malignant biliary obstruction. Methods 123 cases of malignant biliary obstruction from May 2003 to May 2014. The survival time, the stent patency rates, the effective and biochemical indexes between the two groups were analyze and compared, follow-up period ended in March 2015. Results The level of bilirubin, transaminase, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) was declined after the covered and uncovered metal stents placed by ERCP, and the results of the two groups had no statistical significance (P > 0.05). Also there was no significant difference of the incidence of postoperative cholangitis and the cumulative survival rate between the two groups (P > 0.05). One year survival rates was related to tumor types (r = -1.55, P < 0.05). Conclusions Covered and uncovered metal stents for malignant biliary obstruction have no statistically significant about remission of liver function, stent occusion and the cumulative survival rate.

Protein is the executor of physiological function, and direct embodiment of the life phenomena. Proteomics aims to systematically clarify all or parts of proteins' role and function in life movement. In post genome era, proteomics began to play more important role in life science field. Actinobacteria are closely linked to human production and life, which have produced many clinically important secondary metabolites, including antibiotics, antitumorals and enzymes. Actinobacterial systematics and its model organism Streptomyces coelicolor in 2001 genome sequence laid the foundation for further functional genomic studies. Actinobacterial proteomics was more directly and exactly to interpret the activity of life than genomics and transcriptomics, which grew much faster and received so much attention from scientists in the near years. Complex morphological differention, stronge environment adaptiveness, nitrogen-fixing capacity, metabolic mechanism, pathogenicity and natural produces' discovery were systematically reviewed in this study, which was expected to be the basis for promoting Actinobacterial proteomics study in the near future.

Objective To investigate the regulatory effects of PTEN-PI3K/AKT pathway on the apoptosis of gastric cancer MKN28 cells and the possible mechanisms.Methods The specific sequence of PTEN was transfected to MKN28 cells by eukaryotic expression vector (transfection group),and then vacant vector (negative control group) and PBS (blank control group) were transfected to the MKN28 cells,respectively.The effects of PTEN-PI3K/AKT pathway on the apoptosis of MKN28 cells and the expressions of PI3K,AKT,Caspase-3 and Caspase-9 were investigated.The growth curve and apoptosis of the MKN28 cells were detected by MTT assay and TUNEL staining,respectively,and the protein expression was detected by the Western blot.MKN28 cells which did not transfected by the PTEN were processed by inhibitor of PI3K (LY294002) (treated group),and MKN28 cells in the control group were processed by PBS.The expressions of apoptosis protein and apoptosis-related protein were detected after inhibition of PI3 K.All data were analyzed using the t test.Results The model of over-expression of PTEN was obtained and transfected into MKN28 cells.The survival of MKN28 cells in the transfection group was significantly inhibited in a time-dependant manner ( r =0.938,P < 0.05 ).The mean apoptotic rate of the transfection rate was 27.86% ± 4.78%,which was significantly higher than 0.01% ± 0.01% of the negative control group ( t =9.527,P < 0.05 ).The protein expression of PI3K in the transfection group was 0.25 ± 0.03,which was significantly lower than 0.93 ± 0.16 of the blank control group and 0.96 ± 0.15 of the negative control group (t =7.235,8.883,P < 0.05 ).The protein expression of P-AKT in the transfection group was 0.21 ± 0.03,which was significantly lower than 0.93 ± 0.13 of the blank control group and 0.91 ± 0.12 of the negative control group (t =9.347,9.802,P < 0.05 ).The expressions of Caspase-3 and Caspase-9 of the transfection group were 0.86 ± 0.11 and 0.87 ± 0.12,which were significantly higher than 0.16 ± 0.03 and 0.18 ± 0.04 of the negative control group,and 0.15 ± 0.02 and 0.16 ± 0.03 of the blank control group ( t =10.634,10.999,9.448,9.942,P <0.05).The apoptotic rate of the MKN28 cells of the treated group was 28.60% ± 4.50%,which was significantly higher than 0.12% ± 0.06% of the control group (t =10.961,P < 0.05 ).The protein expression of PI3K and P-AKT of the treated group were 0.18 ± 0.02 and 0.11 ± 0.01,which were significantly lower than 0.93 ± 0.14 and 0.90 ± 0.12 of the control group (t =9.186,11.363,P < 0.05 ).The protein expression of PTEN of the treated group was 1.15 ± 0.15,which was significantly higher than 0.21 ± 0.08 of the control group (t =9.577,P < 0.05 ).The relative expressions of Caspase-3 and Caspase-9 of the treated group were 0.86 ± 0.12 and 0.88 ± 0.11,which were significantly higher than 0.25 ± 0.02 and 0.21 ± 0.03 of the control group (t =8.685,10.178,P < 0.05).Conclusions Over-expression of PTEN may enhance the apoptosis of gastric cancer cells through inhibition of PI3K/AKT pathway.Inhibition of PI3K can enhance the expression of PTEN.PI3K and PTEN regulate the apoptosis of gastric cancer cells.

Ultrasonography examinations were performed for carotid atherosclerosis in 548 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, total serum bilirubin, uric acid, total cholesterol ( TC ), triglycerides ( TG), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL) were measured. Total serum bilirubin level in T2DM patients without carotid atherosclerosis was (13.0±7. 1 )μmol/L, while that was (10. 9 ± 4. 9 )μmol/L in patients with carotid atherosclerosis (P <0. 01 ). The logistic analysis showed that total serum bilirubin level was negatively related to the presence of carotid atherosclerosis ( P < 0. 05 ), which indicated that higher level of total serum bilirubin might be a protective factor for macroangiopathy in T2DM.
