Objective To improve the knowledge,diagnostic level on concealed penis in children,and explore the operative treatment methods of concealed penis.Methods Ten children with concealed penis were reviewed retrospectively in the First Hospital of Jilin University from Jun.2005 to Jul.2007.Patients were 6-12 years old.Penis length was 1.2-2.6 cm.Patients growthing and micturition were normal,the results of androgne and estrogen examination were normal.The etiology was simple obesity in one case,fiber streak of penis sarcolemma in 9 cases.The clinical symptoms and signs,diagnosis and operative method were analyzed.Results The diagnosis of 10 children were correct,and all patients were treated by Devine's operation and 10 cases patients had healed in one stage.There was no vessel,nerve and urethra injury during the operation.The length of penis was 3.0-5.5 cm,average in 3.6 cm after operation.Followed up 3 months to 2 years,10 children's phimosis were removed,the micturition were normal;the appearance of penis was also satisfactory after operation.One patient with under-developed penis had a amelioration after treatment with HCG postoperatively.The penis contour was dissatisfactory in 1 obesity patient,but it was ameliorated gradually while growing up.Conclusions The correct diagnosis and differential diagnosis are very important for operative treatment depend on the different etiology and pathologic changes of concealed penis.Suitable operation can extend the length;moreover,ameliorate the symptom of micturition and the appearance of the penis.

Attention was gradually paid by biologists to the using of RNA secondary structure in the classification of microbiology and phylogenetic relationship analysis in recent years. The development around the research was summarized here briefly. And more emphasis was given to the part introducing the application of RNA secondary structure to the analysis of phylogenetic relationship.

Objective To compare the application of ambulatory urodynamic(AUM)and conventional urodynamic(CUD)in detecting stress urinary incontinence(SUI)and detrusor overactivity(DO)in females.Methods Incontinence questionnaire short form(ICI-Q-SF),CUD and AUM were administrated on 30 female patients with the mean age of 49.4(32-63)years.The duration of symptom was 4.7 (1-9)years.The patients were divided into 3 groups of mild(n =9),moderate(n =15)and severe (n =6)according to ICI-Q-SF.Three micturition cycles were recorded during AUM.Results SUI and DO detected by AUM were 90％ and 37％,significantly more than those by CUD of 70％ and 10％(P ＜0.05).Twenty-one moderate and severe SUI patients diagnosed by ICI-Q-SF,detected by AUM and CUD simultaneously showed that abdominal leak point pressure(ALPP)and voided volume were lower,and detrusor pressure was higher recorded by AUM than those by CUD significantly(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions SUI and DO are easier detected by AUM than by CUD.AUM is a useful additional tool in clinical practice for those patients CUD failed to explain their symptoms.

This study is to investigate the anti-tumor activities of a novel cyclophosphamide derivate 4, 6-diphenyl cyclophosphamide (9b) in vivo and in vitro, and its possible mechanism of action. The inhibitory effects of 9b on human hepatoma cell line HepG2, human breast carcinoma cell line MCF-7 and human myeloid leukemia cell line K562 were measured by MTT assay in vitro. Cell cycle distribution and apoptotic rate were evaluated by flow cytometry. To evaluate the anti-tumor effect of 9b in vivo, mouse model bearing inoculated H22 tumor was established. The results indicated that 9b could inhibit the proliferation of HepG2, MCF-7 and K562 cells in a dose and time dependent manner. The ICo50 values of 9b were 32.34 micromol.L-1 to HepG2 cells, 87.07 micromol.L-1 to MCF-7 cells and 149.10 micromol.L-1 to K562 cells after incubation for 48 h. The results of flow cytometry indicated that after being treated for 48 h with different concentrations of 9b, the ratios of HepG2, MCF-7 cells at the Go/G1 phase and K562 cells at the G0/Gl phase and G2/M phase increased significantly compared with control group, and the apoptotic rate increased with the increase of the concentration of 9b. 9b could significantly reduce tumor weight of H22 solid tumor mouse model in vivo. To summarize, 9b showed significantly anti-tumor activity in vivo and in vitro, of which the mechanism might be associated with the change of cell cycle distribution and induction of tumor cell apoptosis.

OBJECTIVEThe SSR information in the transcriptome of Erigeron breviscapus was analyzed in this study, in order to further develop new functional genes SSR markers laid a solid foundation.

METHODSSR loci were searched in all of 52,060 unigenes by using est_timmer. Perl program and SSR primers were designed by Primer3. Furthermore, 36 pairs of primers were randomly selected for the polymorphism analysis on 13 Erigeron breviscapus plants collected from different places.

RESULTA total of 3639 SSRs were found in the transcriptome of Erigeron breviscapus, distributed in 3260 unigenes with the distribution frequency of 6.99%. Di-nucleotide repeat was the main type, account for as much as 34.41% of all SSRs, followed by mono-nucleotide (31.41%) and tri-nucleotide repeat motif (28.08%). The di-nucleotide repeat motifs of AT/AT and AC/GT were the predominant repeat types (28.71%). The tri-nucleotide repeat motifs of AAT/AT was the predominant repeat types (7.94%). For validation the availability of those SSR primers, we randomly selected 36 pairs of primers for PCR amplification. Among them, 34 pair primers (94.44%) produced clear and reproductive bands, 19 pair primers showed polymorphism (52.78%), and 13 Erigeron breviscapus plants were divided into 2 groups.

CONCLUSIONThere are numerous SSRs in Erigeron breviscapus transcriptome with high frequency and various types, this will provide abundant candidate molecular markers for genetic diversity study and genetic map in this plant.

Objective To observe the post-systolic shortening (PSS) during isovolumic relaxation phase and its clinical significance in regional myocardium in chronic heart failure (CHF) patients.MethodsLeft ventricular regional myocardium movement in 60 CHF patients (CHF group) and 30 healthy volunteers (control group) were assessed with tissue velocity imaging (TVI). QLAB software was used to measure the systolic peak velocity (V_s), regional systolic time (T_s), post-systolic shortening velocity (V_(pss)) and post-systolic shortening time (T_(pss)) at the basal and middle levels of left ventricle. Results In CHF patients, the rate of isovolumic relaxation phase PSS was 34.44% both in basal and mid segments, the rate of pathological PSS was 29.44% and 29.72%, respectively. The rate of isovolumic relaxation phase PSS in control group was 26.11% and 20.56%, respectively; none pathological PPS occured. Compared with the physiological PSS of control group, the pathological PSS of CHF group had a higher peak velocity and a longer time (P<0.05). Conclusion The pathological PSS of CHF patients has high peak velocity and long duration, which may be one of the causes leading to the asynchronous movement of left ventricle in CHF.
