Objective To discuss the correlation of the form stigmata of maximus thenar dermatoglyphic patterns of palm and allergic dermatitis. Methods The allergic dermatitis patients were rardanly selected as observation group and normal person or non-suffering allergic dermatitis as control group. The maximus thenar dermatoglyphic patterns of palm were classified into three grades on the basis of its tend towards, distance, depth and character of cleavage lines, and the degree of moistening, dryness, softness, smoothness of surface skin, etc. Results There are 82 examples in observation group, grade Ⅰ is 11 examples, degree Ⅰ of grade Ⅱ is 17 examples, degree Ⅱ of grade Ⅱ is 31 examples, grade Ⅲ is 23 examples. There are 86 examples in control group, grade Ⅰ is 71 examples, degree Ⅰ of grade Ⅱ is 5 examples, degree Ⅱ of grade Ⅱ is 6 examples, grade Ⅲ is 4 examples. There is significant difference between the observation group and control group (P

Objective:To explore the linear and nonlinear relation of personality to life satisfaction and de-pression in visual artists.Methods:Totally 132 visual artists were recruited,most of them focused on painting, sculpture and photography.The Mini International Personality Item Pool-Five-Factor Model Measure (Mini-IPIP), the Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS)and the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) were adopted to all subjects.Results:The Mini-IPIP neuroticismscores had positive predictability to CES-D scores (β=0.41),while the scores of agreeableness,conscientiousnessand extraversionhad negative pre-dictability to CES-D scores(β=-0.27,-0.23,-0.19).Only conscientiousnessscores had positive predictabil-ity (β = 0.25 ) to SWLS scores in terms of linear relationship between personality traits and life satisfaction.Meanwhile,both'neuroticism'and conscientiousnessscores had U curve relationship with SWLS scores (β=0.32,0.22)after linear effects were controlled.Conclusion:It suggests that personality traits in visual artists could explain depression symptoms and life satisfaction.However,pattern between personality and life satis-faction may be more complex.

Objective To study the correlation between maternal serum 25‐OH‐VitD concentration and early‐onset severe pre‐eclampsia(EOSPE) .Methods 5 000 early singleton pregnancy women with gestational age 8-12+6 weeks and without any compli‐cations in the outpatient department of the hospital from January 2013 to January 2015 were enrolled in the study .The levels of ser‐um 25‐OH‐VitD were measured by using chemiluminescence method .Only 2 988 women with Vitamin D deficiency went through regular prenatal care and delivery .The 2 988 women were divided into two groups intervention group and non intervention group whose age ,BMI and gestation age were matched .Intervention group(n=1 490) received vitamin D supplementation ,the non inter‐vention group did not received the supplementation .Those patients who developed EOSPE were counted .Finally ,Patients diagnosed with EOSPE and were Vitamin D deficient(n=118) were divided into two groups late intervention group and non late intervention group .The late intervention group were treated with vitamin D supplementation ,The non late intervention group were only treated routinely .Results Patients with Vitamin D deficiency accounted for 63% ,insufficiency 32% ,normal 5% .The levels of serum 25‐OH‐VitD and VEGF in patients with EOSPE were significantly lower than those in normal control group(P<0 .05) .The occur‐rence rate of EOSPE in 2 988 women was 4 .1% (123 women) .The occurrence rate of EOSPE in intervention group and no interven‐tion group were 2% (30/1 490) and 6% (93/1 498) respectively ,which were statistically different(P<0 .05) .The outcome of ma‐ternal and perinatal infant in late intervention group were not significantly different from those in non late intervention group .Con‐clusion Vitamin D deficiency or insufficiency is a common problem in early pregnant women .The risk of EOSPE increases in early pregnant women with Vitamin D deficiency .Vitamin D supplementation in the first trimester in women with Vitamin D deficiency could significantly decrease the occurrence rate of EOSPE .Vitamin D supplementation in women diagnosed with EOSPE could not change the outcome of maternal and perinatal complications .

Objective To study the abnormal alteration of regions in bipolar depression patients,so as to investigate its pathophysiologic mecha?nism. Methods Regional homogeneity(ReHo)technology of resting?state functional magnetic resonance imaging were used to compare 24 bipolar depression patients and 28 healthy controls. Results Compared to the healthy controls,the bipolar depression patients exhibited significantly higher ReHo value in the bilateral superior frontal gyrus,the bilateral middle frontal gyrus,the bilateral medial frontal cortex,the bilateral supplementary motor area,the left paracentral lobule and the left precentral gyrus(all P<0.001). Conclusion The abnormal function in the bilateral superior frontal gyrus,the bilateral middle frontal gyrus,the bilateral medial frontal cortex,the bilateral supplementary motor area,the left paracentral lobule and the left precentral gyrus may associate with the mechanism of pathophysiology in bipolar depression.

Objective To investigate effect of high glucose on the function of endothelial and the underlying mechanisms in human umbilical vascular endothelial cells (HUVECs).Methods The experiment was divided into 4 groups: normal group (NG), low dose group (LG), middle dose group (MG) and high dose group ( HG) .The concentration of glucose in the culture medium was 5.5, 10, 20, 30 mmol/L in the 4 groups, respectively.The HUVECs was cultured for 0, 24, 48 h.At different time point, the cell viability were measured by MTT.The secretary content of nitric oxide (NO) in the supernatant were detected using test kit.The extraction of protein were extracted for Western blot analysis to detect the expression of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS).ResuIts Compared with normal group at same time point (cultured for 24 h), the cell viability and the content of NO were significantly decreased in LG, MG(P<0.05).The expression of eNOS in HG were markedly reduced (P<0.01).Compared with normal group at same time point (cultured for 48 h), the cell viability decreased significantly in HG (P <0.05).The expression of eNOS were markedly decreased 11.91, 25.72 and 34.50% in LG, MG and HG, respectively.A rising trend of cell viability were found in NG, LG and MG, but a descending trend were found in HG within 48 h.ConcIusion The cell viability were significantly affected by high glucose.The endothelial dysfunction induced by high glucose may be associated with the reduction of eNOS and NO production.

Purpose　To explore the clinicopathological features of subcutaneous panniculitic T-cell lymphoma(SPTCL) and significances of genetic analysis in the diagnosis. Methods　Histopathology, immunohistochemitry and detection of clonal gene rearrangement by PCR were used in 3 cases of subcutaneous panniculitic T-cell lymphoma (SPTCL), which were originally diagnosed as relapsing nodular nonsuppurative panniculitis. Results　Three misdiagnostic cases were correctly redefined as subcutaneous panniculitic T-cell lymphoma, with immunophenotype of CD45+,CD45RO+, Mac387－,and clonal TCR-β gene rearrangement. Conclusions　Subcutaneous panniculitic T-cell lymphoma has distinctive clinicopathological features. Genetic analysis is an effective method for the diagnosis of SPTCL.

PRL-3 is a key gene related to metastasis of colorectal carcinoma. However, it is known little about the possible regulatory mechanisms of PRL-3 gene expression. There were three possible promoter regions predicted by TRED, a promoter prediction software,which were all located in the upstream regions of PRL-3 gene. One of PRL-3 gene candidate promoters was located in the region of about -1kb upstream proximal to 5′ UTR of PRL-3 gene. Many possible transcription factor binding sites such as Snail, n-MYC, ARNT, E74A, NF-kappaB, NRF-2 and AML-1 were predicted in the region by Consite, a promoter analysis web system. Interestingly, a 5′ CACCTG 3′ core sequence and other related sequences of snail binding sites were found in promoter region of PRL-3 genes. Two PRL-3 gene promoters between -699 to 299 nt and between -642 to -383 nt were cloned into pGL3 vector with luciferase report gene. Both of them had promoter activities in four different cell lines including colorectal carcinoma cell lines SW480 and SW620, nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line CNE2 and human embryo kidney cell line 293A. Interestingly, the luciferase activities of the short DNA fragmentations with Snail binding site′s core sequence 5′ CACCTG 3′ were higher than that of the longer one. PRL-3 promoter obtaining the 5′ CACCTG 3′ core sequence of Snail binding sites, was validated to bind to snail by chromatin immunoprecipitation (CHIP) analysis and electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) in SW480 cells. The data suggested that Snail was involved in regulation of PRL-3.

Objective To detect anti-clinically amyopathic dermatomyositis (CADM)-140 antibody in patients with dermatomyositis (DM) or CADM,and to estimate its clinical correlation.Methods Serum samples were collected from 22 patients with DM,16 patients with CADM,46 patients with other connective tissue diseases complicated by interstitial lung disease(including 8 cases of polymyositis,15 cases of systemic lupus erythematosus,5 cases of systemic sclerosis,6 cases of Sj(o)gren syndrome,6 cases of mixed connective tissue disease,6 cases of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis),and 5 normal human controls.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was performed with the recombinant melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5(rMDA)as a substrate to measure the anti-CADM-140 antibody in these serum samples.Clinical manifestations were compared between patients with anti-CADM-140 antibody and those without.Results The anti-CADM-140antibody was found in 43.8% (7/16) of patients with CADM and 9.1%(2/22) of patients with DM(P<0.05),but absent in the patients with other connective tissue diseases and in the normal human controls.A significant incroase was observed in anti-CADM-140 antibody-positive patients with DM/CADM in the incidence of cutaneous ulceration and necrosis,interstitial lung disease and rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease (8/9 vs.6.9%,P<0.01;9/9 vs.48.3%,P<0.01;5/9 vs.0,P<0.05),serum lactate dehydrogenase level(328.3±104.2 vs 241.1±100.3 IU/L P<0.05),erythrocyte sedimentation rate(40.8±23.1 vs.22.5±16.8 mm/1 h,P<0.05),high resolution computed tomography score(122.9±54.8 vs.70.0±59.8,P<0.05)compared with anti-CADM-140 antibody-negative patients with DM/CADM.The ereatine kinase level was significantly lower(156.3±260.8 vs.1806.2±3737.1 IU/L P<0.05)in anti-CADM-140 antibody-positive patients with DM/CADM than in anti-CADM-140 antibody-negative patients with DM/CADM,while no significant difference was noted in the positivity rate of antinuclear antibodies or incidence of malignancies between the antibody-positive and-negative patients with DM/CADM.Conclusions Anti-CADM.140 antibody not only is useful for the diagnosis of interstitial lung disease in patients with DM/CADM,but also may serve as a serum marker for rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease.Monitoring of serum anti-CADM-140 antibody might help to predict the progression of interstitial lung disease in patients with DM/CADM.
