1.Advances in molecular markers of lung cancer metastasis
Journal of International Oncology 2010;37(10):752-755
Metastasis is the main cause of the high mortality of lung cancer. Research is currently underway to understand metastasis at molecular level. Many molecular markers have been shown to participate in metastasis, including thymidylate synthase, angiogenesis lymphangiogenesis-related factors, cell adhesion molecules, extracellular matrix metalloproteinases, cytokines, and metastasis-associated genes. Elucidating the molecular mechanism of metastasis will help improve the early diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer.

Objective Based on the liver biopsy samples in the past 10 years, this study aimed to investigate the incidence of fatty liver, the relationship among fatty liver and other underlying liver diseases, the clinical and pathological characteristics and the risk factors of fatty liver. Methods In the total 658 cases of liver biopsy from 1988 to 1997, there were 71 cases of fatty liver, among them 68 cases were nonalcoholic fatty liver. Matched by sex and age, 155 cases of non fatty liver cases were taken as control. All cases had had the tests of liver function, blood lipid profile, blood glucose and hepatitis virus markers. Liver biopsy samples were investigated by pathologists. Results The incidence of fatty liver among all the liver biopsy cases was 10.8%. The patients' ALT, AST, TB and CB levels in fatty liver group were significantly lower than in non fatty liver group ( P

Orthopedic Journal of China 2006;0(11):-
[Objective] To observe the effect of medical ozone on cartilage in the model of osteoarthritis(OA)to explore its therapeutic mechanism.[Method] Forty healthy adult SD rats were randomly divided into five groups :A(group normal)、B(group model)、C(group air),D(group O2~O3 35 ?g/ml)and E(group O2~O3 70 ?g/ml)(n=8 in each group).The OA model was duplicated by performed anterior eruciate ligament transection(ACLT)and partial meniscectomy of 1/3 inside.Air was injected into joints of group C,according to concentration different,which O2~O3 35 ?g/ml and O2~O3 70 ?g/ml were respectively injected into joints to D and E group every other day,every time 1~1.5 ml,and after a week injected again.After the model was successfully made,the condylar cartilage of femur was excised after 4 weeks for the observation by transmissive microscope of HE staining.Mankin's index was recorded.At the end of the experiment,douche fluid of the diseased joints were obtained for the measurements of superoxide dismutase(SOD)and malondialdehyde(MDA).[Result]The OA model in B group founded obviously degenerative changes under microscopy,resulting in mostly blue and green color destaining of Masson staining at superficial cartilage.The activity of SOD in the douche fluid of the diseased joints degraded and the quantity of MDA in the serum in the OA model group increased.The Mankin's index in the group D was significantly higher than that in the group B、 C(P

Objective To investigate the radiation pollution level of radon and ? radiation in air in different type of buildings. Methods 22 different type of rooms were selected and common measuring methods and REM-2 Radon exhalation rate apparatus and FD-125 Rn-Th measuring instrument were used. Results It indicated that the indoor radioactive contamination mostly root in the exhalation of soil and building material, secondly outdoor radon and ? radiation, water and the wall contributed little. Conclusion The results of the present paper have laid a foundation for the further study on the effect of radiation on human health and the protective technique.

Heart rate is the most common index to directly monitor the level of physical stress by comparing the subject's heart rate with an appropriate "target heart rate" during exercise. However, heart rate only reveals the cardiac rhythm of the complex cardiovascular changes that take place during exercise. It is essential to get the dynamic response of the heart to exercise with various indices instead of only one single measurement. Based on the rest-workload alternating pattern, this paper screens the sensitive indices of exercise load from electrocardiogram (ECG) rhythm and waveform, including 4 time domain indices and 4 frequency domain indices of heart rate variability (HRV), 3 indices of waveform similarity and 2 indices of high frequency noise. In conclusion, RR interval (heart rate) is a reliable index for the realtime monitoring of exercise intensity, which has strong linear correlation with load intensity. The ECG waveform similarity and HRV indices are useful for the evaluation of exercise load.

Background Mooren 's ulcer is an immune-related corneal inflammatory disease,and its pathogenesis remains below understood.Previous studies showed that the imbalance of T helper cell type 1 (Th1) and Th2 cell play important roles in the development of some autoimmune diseases.Thereby the influence of Th1/Th2 cells on the pathogenesis of Mooren's ulcer is being concerned.Objective This study was to investigate the change of Th1 and Th2 subsets in periphery blood of patients with active Mooren's ulcer.Methods Eleven consecutive patients with active Mooren's ulcer and 8 age-and gener-matched healthy controls were included in Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center,Sun Yat-sen University from January 2012 to July 2013 under the approval of Ethic Committee of this hospital and informed consent of each subject.The peripheral blood samples of all the subjects were obtained separately and periphery blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs)were isolated.The percentages of Th1 and Th2 in the PBMCs were assayed by flow cytometer.The relative expressions of T-bet mRNA,GATA-3 mRNA and signal transducer and activator of transcription 5 (Stat5) mRNA in the PBMCs were examined and compared by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) Results The percentage of Th1 cells in CD4+ T cells and Th1/Th2 value was 0.21% (0.11%,0.31%) and 8.01 (4.49,12.01) respectively in the Mooren's ulcer group,which were significantly lower than 0.35% (0.22%,0.71%)and 23.90 (22.49,33.49)in the normal control group,respectively (Z =-2.01,P =0.04 ; Z =-3.06,P =0.00).However,no significant difference was found in the percentage of Th2 between the two groups (Z=-1.98,P>0.05).The relative expressions of T-bet mRNA and GATA-3 mRNA in PBMCs were significantly lower in the Mooren's ulcer group than those in the normal control group (Z =-3.47,-3.06,both at P=0.00) ;While the relative expression of Stat5 mRNA in PBMCs was insignificant changed between the two groups (Z =-1.05,P =0.33).Conclusions Th1 and Th2 cells are unbalanced in the active Mooren's ulcer patients.In addition,the down-expression of relevant transcription factors in peripheral blood also is seen in these patients.It is inferred that Th1 and Th2 cells may participate in the progress of Mooren's ulcer.

Objective To study the clinical features,treatment methods and clinical outcomes of acute tibialis posterior tendon rupture.Methods Using [(posterior tibial tendon) OR (tibialis posterior tendon)] AND (rupture OR injury OR disruption OR trauma OR tear) as the search words,we searched the PubMed database to retrieve the 19 articles involving 24 cases of acute tibialis posterior tendon rupture.The injury mechanisms,X-ray manifestations,operational findings,treatment methods and clinical outcomes were analyzed.Results The mechanisms of the fracture-related tibialis posterior tendon rupture included motor accident (50.0%,12/24),falling from a height (41.7%,10/24) and sports injury (8.3%,12/24).The tendon rupture was mostly complicated with malleolar fracture (91.7%,22/24),especially the pronation type (70.8%,17/24).Direct suture of the tendon was adopted in 91.7% of the cases (22/24).Favorable outcomes were achieved in 95.5% of the cases (21/24).Conclusions Acute tibialis posterior tendon rupture is mostly seen in high-energy medial malleolus fracture.The mechanism of the rupture might be tendon distraction or bone flake incision.Early operation can lead to favorable outcomes.
