Objective To investigate mRNA expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP-9) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase (TIMP-1) in ectopic endometriosis tissue and uterine endometrium from women with and without endometriosis. Methods Thirty-eight women with endometriosis (Revised American Fertility Society classification, RAFSⅠ-Ⅳ) were selected as study group. Thirty-eight specimens of ovarian endometrioma(ovarian chocolate cysts, OCC), 16 red peritoneal endometriotic lesions(RPL), and 35 matched eutopic endometrium(Eu) were collected from them simultaneously at the time of surgery. Twenty specimens of endometrium from reproductive women undergoing laparoscopic surgery without endometriosis were obtained as control group. The mRNA expressions of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 were detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Results Expression of TIMP-1 mRNA was detected in all samples. The level from endometriosis patients and control group was similar(2.31?1.21, 2.40?0.89). However, ectopic endometrium expressed significantly fewer TIMP-1 mRNA(OCC 1.67?0.79, RPL 1.45?0.68)compared with eutopic endometrium from both endometriosis and endometriosis-free patients(P

According to the actuality of domestic medical equipment management and its main problems, development tendency of current equipment management are analyzed in four aspects of the norms of medical equipment management standards and details, the expansion of medical equipment information management in whole course, attention to medical engineering disciplines, and strengthening the quality control of medical equipment and application of security technology.

Objective To explore the feature of epileptiform discharges during day and night in patients with sleep epilepsy and its diagnosis value. Methods Ambulatory EEG (AEEG) was performed continuously for 24 hours in 91 patients with sleep epilepsy. The frequency of epileptiform discharges in wake phase and sleep phase were analyzed. Results Epileptiform discharges were observed in 71 patients. 4 patients showed epileptiform discharges only in wakefulness, 41 only in sleep and 26 both in wakefulness and sleep. 34 patients showed epileptiform discharges only in stage 1 and 2 of NREM sleep, and 33 patients displayed epileptiform discharges in whole cycle of sleep. Seizure frequency in the patients with epileptiform discharges in wakefulness was higher than those without epileptiform discharges or with epileptiform discharges in sleep (both P

Objective To Investigate the expression of metallothionein (MT) and p53 in non-small cell lung carcinoma(NSCLC). Methods The expression of MT and p53 was detected by immunohistochemical method in the paraffin-embedded specimens of 73 NSCLCs and 15 normal bronchial mucosal tissues(NBMT). Results [WTBZ]The positive rates of MT and p53 expression in NSCLC were 54.8%(40/73)and 65.8%(48/73), respectively, and in NBMT were 20.0%(3/15)and 33.3%(5/15), respectively. The positive rates of both MT and p53 in NSCLC were significantly higher than those in NBMT(P0.05). The positive rates of MT and p53 were closely correlated with the histological grades and lymph node metastasis of NSCLC(P

Aim To establish a cell model for high throughput screening and search for novel inhibitors of P-gp.Methods A fluorescent cell-based assay was developed for application in high throughput screening.A library of 480 traditional Chinese medicine samples was screened. Results The value of Z′ was 0.72. Screening of a library of 480 traditional Chinese medicine identified 2 positive samples.Conclusions This HTS model for screening P-gp inhibitors was stable and sensitive.The 2 positive samples had good P-gp inhibitory activities.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of traditional Chinese medicine on internal and external treatment of acne.Methods 128 patients in Dermatology Department of Xiyuan Hospital CACMS from May 2012 to March 2013 were collected and randomly divided into Chinese medicine group and western medicine group.The patients of Chinese medicine group were divided into invasion of the Lung by Wind-Heat syndrome and damp-heat oflmg and stomach syndrome,respectively taking acne liquid 1 or 2 orally and using the herb mask once a week.The western medicine group took Roxithromycin Capsules orally and smeared 0.3％ Viaminate and Vitamin E Cream.The treatment period lasted for 6 weeks,and collected the photograph of the target lesion before and after research every 2 week and evaluated the efficacy.Result The total efficacy rate were 90.77％ (59/65) and 74.60％ (47/63) for Chinese medicine group and western medicine group respectively,with significant difference between them(x2=11.83,P＜0.05).The efficacy rates were 87.50％ and 93.94％ for invasion of the Lung by Wind-Heat syndrome and damp-heat of lung and stomach syndrome respectively,with no significant difference between them(x2=0.416,P＞0.05).The TCM symptom scores after treatment [Chinese medicine group (4.36 ± 2.45),western medicine group (8.62± 2.49)] had significant difference in two groups respectively compared with before treatment[Chinese medicine group(15.33±6.08),western medicine group(14.34±5.29),P＜0.05].The difference of TCM symptom scores after treatment between the two groups also had a significant difference (P＜0.05).The TCM symptom scores after treatment of invasion of the Lung by Wind-Heat syndrome group and damp-heat of lung and stomach syndrome group were (4.50±3.01) and (4.24±1.83),which had a significant difference compared with before treatment respectively[(15.37±7.03)and(15.29±5.13),P＜0.05].Conclusion The TCM internal and external treatment on acne could reduce the number of lesions and improve TCM symptom scores.The effect of treating invasion of the Lung by Wind-Heat syndrome and damp-heat of lung and stomach syndrome with TCM was almost equal.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and significance of CT image-based threedimensional (3D) brachytherapy for cervical cancer.Methods Three-dimensional (3D) plan and twodimensional (2D) plan were designed for 55 CT images of brachytherapy from 12 cervical cancer patients who received radical radiotherapy in 2013.Dosimetric comparison was performed between the 3D plan and 2D plan,and paired t-test,Wilcoxon signed rank test,Pearson correlation analysis,and Spearman correlation analysis were performed.Results A point dose,D90,V100,CI,and CI' in 3D plan were higher than those in 2D plan (P=0.015,0.016,0.000,0.000,0.000).Bladder point dose,rectal point dose,and rectal D2 cm3 in 3D plan were slightly higher than those in 2D plan,but hot spot dose was significantly reduced in 3D plan (P =0.140,0.123,0.214).Bladder D2cm3 was significantly higher than bladder point dose (P =0.000).Sigmoid colon D2cm3 was more correlated with the average doses of the three highest rectal points than rectal D2 cm3 (r =0.314,0.630,P =0.000,0.000).V100 showed a linear relationship with high-risk CTV (r =0.981,P =0.000).Bladder D2cm3 was higher than 430 cGy when the bladder volume was more than 80 cm3 ;small intestinal D2 cm3 did not change significantly when the bladder volume was less than 115 cm3,but decreased significantly once the volume exceeded the value.Conclusions Compared with the traditional 2D plan,the 3D plan for CT image-based cervical cancer brachytherapy significantly increases the target coverage and conformity index,but does not significantly increase the doses to organs at risk.Point dose evaluation is confirmed to be inaccurate.The doses to the bladder,rectum,and small intestine can be adjusted by controlling the bladder volume.

Objective To explore the relationship between the expression of CD44v6,P16 protein and the invasion and metastasis in gastric carcinoma and to investigate the correlation between the expression of CD44v6 and P16 protein.Methods Immunohistochemical methods were used to detect the expression of CD44v6 and P16 protein in 110 cases of gastric carcinoma.Results In 110 cases of gastric carcinoma,the expression of CD44v6 and P16 protein were 72.7%(80/110)and 47.3%(52/110)respectively. The high level expression of CD44v6 protein and low level expression of P16 protein were positively correlated with the TNM staging,serosa infiltration,lympho node and liver metastasis of gastric carcinoma(P
