OBJECTIVE:To investigate the status quo and tendency of the utilization of drug for bony metastasis cancer in our hospital. METHODS:The utilization of drug for bony metastasis cancer in our hospital from 2006 to 2009 was analyzed statistically. RESULTS:The total amount of the drug for bony metastasis cancer had been increasing. Pamidronate took up the first place of the consumption sum list and accounted for 80% of total consumption sum. Top one drug in the list of DDDs was domestical pamidronate. Utilization rate of disodium clodronate increased form 0.67% in 2006 to 31.68% in 2009. The order of DDC had not changed during 2006～2009. CONCLUSION:In recent year the drug for bony metastasis cancer has been rational and has become curative effect-oriented rather than price-oriented.

Up to now, a variety of microRNAs have been found in a number of studies, that specifically expressed in retinal neuroepithelial, lens, cornea and retinal pigment epithelium, in which miR-126 plays a certain role in the proliferation of tumor cells, the development of thymus lymphocytes and cardiovascular diseases.Some researches show that miR-126 has certain correlations with the formation of corneal neovascularization, the development of diabetic retinopathy, and the immune system related eye disease.In this paper, the current miR-126 in the role of eye disease mechanism and research progress were reviewed.

Objective To explore the relationship between osteoporosis knowledge and activities and fear of falling of elderly in the community.Method 420 elders in community were investigated with osteoporosis knowledge assessment tool (OKAT) and the modified survey of activities and fear of falling in the elderly (MSAFFE).Result The overall average score of MSAFFE was (25.36±4.58),and exercise capacity dimension scored higher (13.89±2.41).The overall average score of OKAT was (9.11±3.81).The correlation coefficient of MSAFFE and OKAT was-0.11～ 0.58(P＜0.05).The level of knowledge osteoporosis could explain 24％,18％,16％ variation of activities and fear of falling in each dimension.Conclusion The level of knowledge osteoporosis in the elderly is closely related to activity and fear of falling.Health education should be strengthened to improve the life quality of older people.

Objective To study the findings of CT and MRI in tongue cancer.Methods 21 cases of tongue cancer were examined by CT or MRI,CT examined 7 cases,MRI examined 14 cases.Results MRI could display the tongue cancer in all the cases,but CT only display 5 of 7 cases of the tumour.The value of CT and MRI was same in displaying soft tissue direct invasion.MRI and contrast enhanced CT could display cervical lymph node metastases.CT was superior to MRI in the diagnosis of mandible invasion.Conclusion MRI is superior to CT in the display soft tissue of tongue cancer and the metastases.CT is optimal in detection of cortical bone invasion.

Corynebacterium glutamicum SA001 is a mutant with lactate dehydrogenase (ldhA) deletion. In order to increase metabolic flux from isocitrate to succinate, and to improve the production of succinate under anaerobic conditions,we transducted the gene aceA coding isocitrate lyase (ICL) from Escherichia coli K12 into Corynebacterium glutamicum SA001 (SA001/pXMJ19-aceA). After 12 h aerobic induction by adding 0.8 mmol/L of IPTG, the recombinant strain was transferred to anaerobic fermentation for 16 h. Succinate reached 14.84 g/L, with a productivity of 0.83 g/(L x h). Compared to C. glutamicum SA001, the activity of ICL of the recombinant strain was increased 5.8-fold, and the succinate productivity was increased 48%. Overexpression of isocitrate lyase will increase the metabolic flux of glyoxylate bypass flowing to succinate.

Objective To explore the DNA damage in peripheral blood lymphocytes of rats exposed to sodium arsenite. Methods Thirty-two Wistar rats, weighing 180 - 200 g, equal male and female, were randomly divided into 4 groups, 8 in each group. Sodium arsenite 0(control) ,0.05,0.15,0.45 mg/L were given through drinking water for 30 days. Body weight and drinking water consumption were measured every day. Blood were collected and DNA damage in peripheral blood lymphocytes was examined by single cell gel electrophoresis.Results The increase of body mass[( 121.00 ± 38.57), ( 120.62 ± 42.80), ( 125.38 ± 48.68)g]and water intake [(36.9 ± 6.2), (37.9 ± 5.8), (39.3 ± 4.2)ml/d]in 0.05,0.15,0.45 mg/L sodium arsenite groups were compared with the control group[( 119.25 ± 47.27)g, (38.4 ± 5.1 )ml/d], and the difference were not significant (F = 0.040,0.828, all P ＞ 0.05). The tail ratios[46.25%(185/400) ,57.00%(228/400),64.00%(256/400)], tail lengths [(32.89 ± 17.18), (58.74 ± 36.28), (77.55 ± 35.73 ) μm]and tail moments [(6.29 ± 3.74), ( 11.20 ± 9.64),(17.30 ± 12.60)μm]in 0.05,0.15,0.45 mg/L sodium arsenite groups were significantly higher than those of the control group[39.25%(157/400), (18.73 ± 15.83),(2.61 ± 1.05)μm, all P ＜ 0.01], and the tail ratios,tail lengths and tail moments in lymphocytes increased with increased doses of arsenic concentration. Conclusions Low doses of arsenic exposure can induce DNA damage in peripheral blood lymphocytes of rats.

Objective To study the methods of delineating the whole length of bilateral facial nerve canals in one image. Methods High resolution computed tomography of the temporal bone was performed in 60 cases (120 ears) by Philips Mx8000 multislice spiral CT. Parameters: 120 kV, 200～250 mAs, Collimation: 0.5 mm, Pitch: 0.875, Scan time: 0.75 s/ring, Matrix: 512?512, Reformation interval: 0 1～0.2 mm, Reformation matrix: 1 024?1 024. Curved planar reformation(CPR)images were prepared along the facial nerve canal in the axial plane, and in the coronal and sagittal plane of multiplanar reconstruction(MPR). In the axial plane, a reference line was traced following the facial nerve canal from the internal auditory meatus, through the labyrinthine segment, the tympanic segment up to the second genu and mastoid segment. Another two protocols of curved reformatting were adopted: (a) a curved line was delineated along the facial nerve canal on the coronal reformatted image; (b) a curved line was drawn along the facial nerve canal on the sagittal reformatted image. The reference lines were carefully revised and moved exactly to the center of each segment of the facial nerve canal. For displaying bilateral facial nerve canals in one image, one reference line should be drawn along bilateral facial nerve canals. Results In 56 cases of 60 CPR, images in the axial plane, and coronal plane of MPR could show the unilateral or bilateral facial nerve canals clearly. The result of CPR of bilateral facial nerve canals in sagittal plane of MPR was unsatisfactory. The image on one side was often clear, but just part of it could be showed on the other. So the left and right facial nerve canals should be reformed separately. In 4 cases, CPR was unsatisfactory. In 1 of them the labyrinthine and tympanic segment had breaks because the patient′s head shook during the scanning. In 3 of them the facial nerve canals were showed unsatisfactorily because of the inexact position of head during the scanning. Conclusion The unilateral or bilateral facial nerve canals could be showed in one image by CPR. Combining the images of the high resolution CT in axial scan and MPR of the temporal bone, it would be helpful in the diagnosis of the lesions of facial nerve canal.

Objective To construct the eukaryotic expression plasmids of human Fas and TNFR1 gene(pcDNA3.0-hFas and pcDNA3.0-hTNFR1)and microRNA(miRNA)expression plasmid of hFas and hTNFR1 named p-hFasmiRNA and p-hTNFR1miRNA,and to investigate their inhibitory effects in vitro.Methods The eukaryotic expression plasmids of human Fas and TNFR1 gene were constructed(pcDNA3.0-hFas and pcDNA3.0-hTNFR1)and have been shown successfully to express hFas and hTNFR1 protein.miRNA expression plasmids of hFas and hTNFR1 named p-hFasmiRNA and p-hTNFR1miRNA complimentary to the sequence responsible for hFas and hTNFR1 respective were constructed,meanwhile irrelevant miRNA plasmid was used as a control.By respective co-transfection of p-hFasmiRNA and pcDNA3.0-hFas,p-hTNFR1 miRNA and pcDNA3.0-hTNFR1 expression construct into 293T cells,the inhibition of hFas and hTNFR1 expression was analyzed by real-time PCR and Western blot.Results The experiments showed the significant inhibitory effect of p-hFasmiRNA on hFas and p-hTNFR1miRNA on hTNFR1 expression at 48 h post-transfection both at RNA level and protein level as well in 293T cell lines with the inhibitory efficiency being as high as 87% for hFas and 80% for hTNFR1,respectively.Conclusion The p-hFasmiRNA and p-hTNFR1miRNA were constructed successfully,and it was verified that they could specifically inhibit the hFas and hTNFR1 expression at the cellular level.

Objective To assess the preventive effect of artesunate against reinfection of Schistosoma japonicum.Methods Volunteers were divided into 3 groups,Medication Group Ⅰ took artesunate 6 mg/kg ,once a week for 4 weeks,Medication Group Ⅱ took artesunate 6 mg/kg in the 1st and 3rd week,twice a week,and a control group was given a placebo.The 3 teams took praziquantel 40 mg/kg on the 4th weekend.The effects of artesunate in early treatment were observed at the 8th weekend,and the preventive effects of artesunate against reinfection were assessed at the 12th weekend.The positive rate of fecal examination was used as the indicator.Results In the stage of early treatment,the positive rates of fecal examination in Medication Group Ⅰ ,Ⅱdecreased significantly compared with the data before the study with all P values less than 0.05 ;in the stage of preventing reinfection,compared with the data before the study,the positive rates of the fecal examination declined significantly in Medication Group Ⅰ,Ⅱ ,with all P values less than 0.05.While in the control group,the positive rates of the fecal examination had no significant changes in the two stages.Conclusions Artesunate has a valid effect against schistosome infections in the early treatment and can prevent residents from reinfection,and the suitable dosage is 6 mg/kg,once a week for 4 weeks.
