Objective To investigate the clinical value of bloodβ-hydroxybutyric acid and urine ketone in the diagnosis of diabetic ketosis. Methods One hundred and fifteen patients with non-ketosis diabetics (NDK group), 85 patients with diabetic ketosis (DK group) and 105 healthy people (control group) were enrolled in Chengmai People's Hospital from May 2012 to May 2014. Blood β-hydroxybutyric acid, urine ketone and blood glucose were detected; the correlation index of blood β-hydroxybutyric acid, urine ketone and blood glucose in NDK group and DK group were analyzed. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was performed in determining the diagnostic value of bloodβ-hydroxybutyric acid for diabetic ketosis. Results The level of bloodβ-hydroxybutyric acid, positive rate of bloodβ-hydroxybutyric acid, urine ketone and level of blood glucose in DK group were higher than those in NDK group and NC group (P<0.01) . Blood β-hydroxybutyric acid was positively correlated with urine ketone and blood glucose (r=0.552,P=0.000;r=0.405,P=0.010) . When urine ketone was used as diagnostic standard, the area under curve of bloodβ-hydroxybutyric acid was 0.839, the best cutoff value ofβ-hydroxybutyric acid was 0.64 mmol/L with the sensitivity was 81.6%and specificity was 89.2%. Conclusions Examinations of bloodβ-hydroxybutyric acid and urine ketone have great significance for the diagnosis of diabetic ketosis. The co-monitoring of blood β-hydroxybutyric acid and urine ketone can reduce the rates of missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis. The best cutoff value of β-hydroxybutyric acid to diagnose diabetic ketosis was 0.64 mmol/L.

The clinical characteristics and laboratory outcomes were compared between patients with different glomerulus and renal tubule pathologic classification respectively. Results Patients with grade Ⅲ had a higher proteinuria rate than those with grade Ⅱ,and the glomerulus and renal tubule pathologic markedly changed in grade Ⅲ than that in grade Ⅱ.The HSPN patients had a higher concentration of IgA,C 3 in plasma and of minimal protein in urine than that in normal groups.Conclusions There are both glomerulus and renal tubule pathologic changes in HSPN patients. The basic pathologic changes are parallel and correlated with clinical manifestation.

Objective To study the image quality control system to ensure that equipment meet clinical needs.Methods It was scanning the Catphan504 phantom with models of high quality head,standard dose head and pelvis,we could get the results of CT numbers linearity,uniformity,spatial resolution,contrast resolution.Using T test to compare different scanning technique results.Results The standard dose head scanning technique was better than the pelvis scanning technique in CT numbers linearity test,and gets the best result in uniformity test.The result of CT numbers uniformity was higher in the standard dose head scanning than the high quality head and the pelvis scanning (9.7 ±3.9 vs.17.9 ±5.3,P =0.00 and 9.5 ± 4.0 vs.31.1 ± 5.7,P =0.00).The result of contrast resolution was higher in the pelvis scanning than the high quality head and the pelvis scanning (5.6 ± 0.1 vs.1.3 ± 0.5,P =0.00 and 6.0 ± 1.0 vs.1.3 ± 0.5,P =0.00).The result of spatial linear distance was very accurate,the range was 4.98 -5.06 cm.Conclusions The results of spatial linearity test are stable and accuracy,but CT numbers linearity and uniformity test are affected by the scanning technique significantly for device.To spatial resolution test and contrast resolution test,we need to set the standard and tolerance according to each linear accelerator specialty.

Objective To explore the internal relations of HBV markers and its clinical significance.Methods HBV Pre S1-Ag、HBV-M(HBsAg、HBsAb、HBeAg、HBeAb、HBcAb)and HBV DNA of 106 patients were detected by ELISA and FQ-PCR respectively.Results The total positive rates of Pre-S1 antigen and HBV DNA in 106 cases were 81.1%and 84.9%respectively.In41 HBeAg-positive cases.Pre S1-Ag and HBV DNA detection rate was 95.1%.90.2%.And HBeAg-negative 2 groups Pre S1-Ag and HBV DNA detection rate was also higher.Conclusion HBV Per S1-Ag Was a very valuable serum marker in terms of direct HBV replication alone can not HBeAg-positive to determine whether the replication of the virus.

Cancer stem cells is a small fraction of cells exist in cancers and own the same characteristics of stem cells. It has recently been shown that cancer stem cells in some tumours contain lower reactive oxygen species(ROS) levels and enhanced ROS defence radioresistance. The DNA damage induced by p53 tumor suppressor protein is associated with self cancer stem cells. We have reviewed the biological characteristics including self- renewal, drug resistance, heterogeneity and so on. As to the genesis of the cancer stem cells,some researchers believe that they arise from normal adult stem cells, progenitor cells or mutation of somatic cells, while others consider that cancer stem cells are derived from cell fusion and so on.

BACKGROUND:Regional myocardial diastolic dysfunction has been recognized as a sensitive and characteristic sign of myocardial ischemia and infarction,train rate imaging(SRI)is a novel ultrasonic technique with good spatial and high temporal resolution,nd it can be used to quantitatively analyze regional myocardial function.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the characteristics of the longitudinal diastolic strain rate(SR)in ischemic and infarct myocardium by SRI,n order to explore the clinical value of SRI in evaluating regional left ventricular diastolic dysfunction in patients with coronary artery disease.DESIGN:A case-control study.SETTING:Department of Cardiology.Second Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University.PARTICIPANTS:All the participants were selected from outpatients and/or inpatients of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University between October 2005 and April 2006.Twenty-one patients with myocardial infarction(MI group)and 11 patients with angina pectoris(AP group)were enrolled in the study.Twenty age-matched healthy subjects served as controls.METHODS:After performing conventional echocardiographic examination,olor tissue Doppler images from apical four-,three- and two-chamber views (posterior septum and lateral wall,nterior septum and posterior wall,nterior and inferior wall)were recorded on magneto-optical disk.Then SR curves were derived from the stored images off-line using QLAB 4.2software.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Ischemic segments in the AP group,nfarct segments in the MI group and normal segments in the control group were analyzed.The parameters measured included peak early diastolic SR (SRe)and peak late diastolic SR(SRa).RESULTS:Compared with the normal myocardium,oth SRe and SRa decreased significantly in the infarct and ischemic myocardium(all P＜0.05).No significant differences were observed with respect to SRe and SRa between the infarct and ischemic myocardium(both P＞0.05).CONCLUSION:SRI can be used to quantitatively analyze regional myocardial diastolic dysfunction in patients with coronary artery disease,ut its value is limited in differentiating infarct from ischemic myocardium.

PPP2R5C is one of the members of regulatory subunits of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A), which plays a critical role in cell proliferation, differentiation and transformation, based on its induction of dephosphorylation of P53 at various residues. Recently, it was characterized that the alteration of expression pattern of PPP2R5C is associated with cell malignant transformation, thus PPP2R5C was thought as a marker for progressive disease in B-CLL. In this article the gene structure and biological function of PPP2R5C as well as relation of PPP2R5C with genesis and development of cancer were discussed.
