Objective To study the relationship between serum fibrosis parameters levels and chronic viral hepatitis B patients.Methods Radioimmunoassay and chemiluminescence were used to test the levels of hyaluronic acid(HA),collagen type Ⅳ(Ⅳ-C),laminin(LN) and procollagen type Ⅲ(PC Ⅲ) in 146 cases of chronic hepatitis B and 40 of normal controls,and the relationship with clinical parameters of liver function were analyzed.Results The levels of HA,Ⅳ-C,LN,PC Ⅲ in chronic hepatitis B patients were higher than those of normal control group (P ＜0.05 or P ＜ 0.01),there were statistical differen in different course of disease (P ＜ 0.05 or P ＜ 0.01) ; The levels of serum Ⅳ-C and PCⅢ had positive correlation with plasma PT,the same to HA with TBil and PCⅢ with ALT;The levels of HA,Ⅳ-C and LN had negative correlation with Alb,the same to LN with CHE.Conclusion The levels of HA,Ⅳ-C,LN and PC Ⅲ in chronic hepatitis B patients may reflect the situations of hepatic fibrosis and the degrees of liver function damage.

Anhedonia, or markedly diminished interest or pleas-ure, is a hallmark symptom of depression.As a psychopathological symptom, anhedonia was first noted in the early 19th century.The neurobiological mechanisms that underline anhedonia and its role in diagnosing depression disorder or evaluating antidepressant response have long been aroused attention for nearly a century.Consequently, there are many measuring methods established in both the animal study and human research, which would be reviewed in the present study.

Objective To study variations of plasma sE-selectin and sICAM-1 level of type 2 diabetes(T2DM) patients complicated with lower limb vascular disease,and contribution of these molecules to the formation of the lower limb vascular disease. Methods Plasma sE-selectin and sICAM-1 of 51 type 2 diabetic patients and 20 age & sex matched non-diabetes people(control group) were determined with ELISA.16 T2DM patients without lower limb vascular disease and 17 age & sex matched T2DM complicated with lower limb vascular disease were selected from the patients group,as group 1 and group 2 respectively,and 17 age and sex matched non-diabetic individuals were selected from control group as group 3.sE-selectin and sICAM-1 level were contrasted among the three groups. Results Levels of FPG,2 h PG,HOMA-IR,sE-selectin and sICAM-1 of diabetic group were significantly elevated than those of the control group(P0.05).FPG and 2 h PG in group 1 and group 2 were markedly higher than that in group 3(P

OBJECTIVE To study the clinical effect of preventing and treating sterile phlebitis(abacterial phlebitis,SP) by infrared irradiation after peripherally inserted central catheterization(PICC).METHODS Totally 122 inpatients from the Zhejiang Provincial People′s Hospital were divided into two groups randomly,the control group and the experimental group.The control group was only treated with usual care after PICC,while the experimental group with both infrared irradiation and usual care.The incidence rate of SP and its correlation factor were compared between the two groups.RESULTS None in the experimental group got SP.Nevertheless,the control group got a 21.9%incidence rate.The development of SP mostly own to impassable intubation or repeating intubation.CONCLUSIONS For those patients with impassable intubation or repeating intubation during PICC operation,infrared irradiation shows greatly helpful and can obviously prevent the SP and diminish patients′ fee.

Objective To investigate the clinical features and surgical management of patients with blunt multiple severe injuries. Methods 165 patients whth the injury severity score (ISS) over 16 were reviewed between 1988 and 1998. Results 47 cases (28.5%) had 3 or more injury sites, and 63 cases had multiple intraabdominal organ trauma. Abdominal trauma was evaluated by abdominocentesis in 143 cases, by US in 65 and CT in 47. All had positive values over 90%. Missed diagnosis of intraabdominal injury occurred in 21 cases (12 7%). The total mortality rate was 17 6% (29 cases). The average ISS for the died was 41 6 and 24 8 for the survivors ( t =15 21, P

Objective To observe the effect of high-dose leucovorin(LV)plus 5-fluorouracil(5-Fu)for 48hours infusion in combination with cisplatin(DDP)in treatment of advanced esophageal cancer.Methods Pathological diagnosis of esophageal cancer 60 cases were randomly divided into treatment group of 30 patients,using DDP 25mg/m2 intravenous infusion 30 minutes,d1～3,LV 200mg/m2 intravenous infusion 2 hours,5-Fu 0.5 intravenous injection 10 minutes,and 5-Fu 2.5/m2,continuous infusion with the infusion pump for 48 hours every 21 days,2 cycles of assessment of efficacy.Control group of 30 patients,using DDP 25mg/m2 intravenous infusion 30 minutes,d1～3,LV 60mg/m2 intravenously two hours,d1～5,5-Fu 500mg/m2 intravenously 8 hours every 21 days,2 cycles of assessment of efficacy.Results Short-term effect,treatment group,complete remission(CR)1 patient and partial remission(PR)15 cases,stable(SD)9 cases,progress(PD)5 cases,the total effective rate of CR + PR53.3％(16/30).Control group,PR 11 patients,SD 11 cases,PD 8 cases,no cases of PR,the total effective rate 36.7 ％(11/30).Nausea,vomiting,oral mucositis,bone marrow suppression,diarrhea and hair loss were the main adverse reactions.Two groups are able to withstand,without any Ⅳ toxicities,myelosuppression was significant in control group than the treatment group.Conclusion High-dose LV + 5-Fu 48 hours infusion combined platinum-term efficacy in treatment of advanced esophageal cancer compared with conventional DF program is good,less adverse reactions,should further expand the study.

Recent studies have demonstrated that hyperhomocysteinemia is an independent risk factor for stroke,which may cause vascular endothelial injury by multiple mechanisms,destroy blood coagulation and fibrinolytic systems,and influence on lipid metabolism.Methylenetetra hydrofolate reductase(MTHFR)is a key enzyme of homocysteine metabolic pathway in the human body.If it is insufficient or its activity decreases,it will directly result in the accumula tion of homocysteine in the human body,and callse hyperhomocysteinemia.Although a number of studies have found that MTHFR gene mutation is the main cause of MTHFR insufficient and its activity decrease,the correlation between MTHFR gene mutation and ischemic cerebral vascular disease is quite controversial now.This article reviews the relationship between MTHFR gene polymorphisms and ischemic stroke.
