Galectins are a family of carbohydrate-binding proteins that have a high affinity to galactosides on cell surfaces and extra cellular glycoproteins.They are involved in a variety of biological functions,including modulation of cell apoptosis,cell activation and inflammation.Our laboratory has recently identified galectin-3 binding protein (Gal-3BP) as being up-regulated in a microparticle proteomics analysis for deep venous thrombosis (DVT) patients compared to negative controls.P-selectin,another glycoprotein involved in thrombus propagation,has been proved as a promising target for DVT management and has been widely studied by our group.Galectins are involved in P-selectin expression and can potentially be implicated in the venous thrombogenesis process.Interleukin-6,as an important cytokine of body,which have been found in the study of inflammation for venous thromboembolism,may be an important factor for the frmation of VT.Research shows gal3bp:gal3 plays a critical role in VT,likely via IL-6 Promote thrombosis.The function of galectins,their role in inflammation and thrombosis as well as their potential implications as a new pharmacological target for DVT management are reviewed in this manuscript.

The core values of traditional Chinese medicine culture greatly correlate with the ideological and political education of medical students and they can be integrated.Based on the discussion of the relationship between traditional Chinese medicine culture and medical students' ideological and political education,this paper analyzed the significance of integrating traditional Chinese medicine culture into medical students' ideological and political education:it could help to cultivate college students' patriotic sentiments,sense of honesty,and professional ethics.In addition,it put forward concrete implementation paths:exerting regional advantages and creating characteristic brand of ideological and political education,enriching classroom teaching and innovating the ways of ideological and political education,strengthening cultural construction and strengthening the perceptual cognition of ideological and political education,highlighting typical demonstration and enlarging the positive influence of ideological and political education.

Objective To know the quality of water sources of drinking water provided for themselves in eastern unit of Lanzhou Command. Methods The water samples were collected from 194 water sources and the total coliform, ammonia, nitrite were determined according to the standard GJB1096-91. Results Of 194 drinking water sources, as to total coliform, ammonia, nitrite, 48.0%, 55.2%, 90.2% respectively were under the standard limits. Based on the comprehensive evaluation, unpolluted water sources accounted for 30.4%(59/194), lightly polluted 66.0% (128/194)and seriously polluted 3.6% (7/194) respectively. Conclusion 69.6% of water sources of drinking water provided for themselves were polluted in different degree in eastern unit of Lanzhou Command.

This paper mainly reports a case with the foreign body staying in nasal sinus and cranium via orbit. CT manifests the foreign body staying in ethmoid sinus and entering the bottom of cranium. After completing the relevant inspection, the patient unerwent right eye exenteration, endoscopic sinus surgery with general anesthesia in emergency to take out the foreign body in nasal sinus, and Cerebrospinal fluid leak repair surgery . Then the patient recovers well, futhermore, the symptom of cerebrospinal fluid leakage doesn't appear after five months follow-up.

Tympanosclerosis is the middle ear tissue hyalinization and calcification caused by chronic middle ear inflammation, which mainly results in conductive deafness with unobvious clinical symptom. Etiology is unclear. The treatment is given priority to surgical treatment at present, while long-term effect reported mostly poor. This article analyzed etiology and treatment of the tympanic cavity sclerosis.

Objective To study the levels of ? amyloid protein(A?/?A 4) in cerebrospinal fluid(CSF) of patients with Alzheimer's disease(AD) and vascular dementia(VD) and its significance of diagnosis.Methods The levels of A? 1 40 and A? 1 42 in CSF of 24 patients with AD, 14 patients with VD and 30 normal controls(NC) were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assays(ELISA).Results (1)The levels of A? 1 42 in CSF of AD and VD patients were significantly lower than NC group ( P

Objective To investigate the influence of treatment with milkvetch root and red sage root injections on changes in blood viscosity and renal function in patients with early diabetic nephropathy(EDN).Methods 160 patients with EDN were randomly divided into two groups.The control group (n=80) was treated with conventional therapy for diabetes,and the treatment group (n=80) was treated with milkvetch root injection combined with red sage root injection based on conventional therapy for 4 weeks.Results After the above-mentioned therapy the parameters of blood viscosity were significantly decreased(P

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the preoperative utilization of antibacterial in orthopaedic patients in our hospital. METHODS: The preoperative use of antibacterial in 300 orthopaedic patients in our hospital in 2008 was reviewed. RESULTS: Of the 300 patients in our study, 100% of them were recieved preoperative antibacterial. Two of the most widely used antibacterials were clindamycin and cefuroxime sodium. The use of antibacterial in 228 patients were overtime after operation (76.00%), of which the use of antibacterial in 161 patients in type Ⅰ incision exceed 24 hour(70.61%), 56 patients in type Ⅱ incision exceed 2 days(24.56%) and 11 patients in type Ⅲ incision exceed 7 days (4.82%). CONCLUSION: The usage of preoperative antibacterial was inappropriate and the duration of administration is too long, which should be standardized.

Objective To investigate the value of CT spectral imaging in differential diagnosis of atypical pheochromocytoma and adrenal adenoma.Methods The energy spectrum CT data of 13 cases of atypical pheochromocytoma and 15 cases of adrenal cortical adenoma confirmed by surgery pathology were retrospectively analyzed.All images processed by spectrum software.The CT value of different energy levels (40-140 keV) in arterial,venous and delayed phase,energy spectrum curve and spectrum curve type,base material of concentration (water-iodine,grease-iodine,blood-iodine) were obtained,and the CT value of different energy were standardize in the same period.Data were compared with samples t test.Results For arterial phase,the standardization CT values of pheochromocytoma on monochromatic images of 40 keV,70 keV to 140 keV had statistical difference with those of adenoma (all P＜0.05).For venous phase,the standardization CT values of pheochromocytoma on monochromatic images of 70 keV to 140 keV had statistical difference with those of adenoma (all P＜0.05).For delayed phase,the standardization CT values of the two tumors on monochromatic image of 40 keV to 140 keV had significant difference (all P＜0.05).Both the energy spectrum of the three periods of type curve was falling,pheochromocytoma always located above compared with adenoma.The standardization concentration of base materials including water (iodine),fat (iodine) and blood (iodine) of pheochromocytoma were higher than those of adenoma in three phases (all P＜0.001).The standardization concentration of base materials including iodine (water),iodine (fat) and iodine (blood) had no significant difference in three phases between pheochromocytoma and adenoma (all P＞ 0.05).Conclusion Atypical pheochromocytoma and adrenal adenoma have different spectral curve and spectrum characteristics of the material content.Spectral CT imaging provides a method of multiple parameters to identify atypical adrenal pheochromocytoma and adenoma.

Objective To establish a gas chromatography ( GC) method for determination of aniline,2-aminophenol and 4-aminophenol in mesalamine sustained release granules. Methods An HP-5 (10 m×0.53 mm,2.65 μm) capillary GC column was adopted. The carrier gas was high purity nitrogen at a flow rate of 15 mL.min-1 . The inlet temperature was controlled at 280 ℃ and the FID detector temperature was 300℃. The oven temperature was initially held at 70℃ for 2 min and was then programmed to 150 ℃ at 10℃.min-1 and held for 6 min. Results A good resolution was obtained between the peaks of the 3 impurities at chromatographic conditions above. The recoveries of aniline, 2-aminophenol and 4-aminophenol were among 98.04% to 103.00%. The precision and linearity equations were good. Conclusion The method can be adopted for the quality control of mesalazine sustained release granules.
