Objective To investigate the gene therapy of hypoparathyroidism (HPT) with hemopoietic stem cell s(HSCs) integrated with parathyroid hormone (PTH) gene.Methods Human PTH gene was amplified by polymerase chain reaction from pcDNA 3.1 -PTH templates and inserted into murine stem cell virus (MSCV) vectors. The plasmids recombinated with PTH gene were transfected into PA317 packaging cells and screened for positive clones with Geneticin. The condensed recombinant retroviruses were obtained and used to infect HSCs coming from umbilical cord blood. The infected HSCs were injected into the mice suffering from HPT. The change of symptoms and serum level of PTH and calcium in each group of mice was observed.Results Human PTH gene was proved to be inserted into MSCV vectors and the titres were up to 2?10 7 colony forming unit (CFU)/ml in condensed retroviral solution. The secretion of PTH reached 15 ng per 10 6 cells per 48 h. The wild type viruses were not detected by PCR amplification. The mice suffering from HPT recovered quickly and the serum level of calcium and PTH remained normal for about 3 months after the HSCs recombinated with PTH gene were injected into them. In the groups of mice subject to the injection of the recombinant retroviruses containing PTH gene, the serum level of PTH and Calcium was significantly increased in a short time, and then declined slowly. And the mice took on the manifestation of hypoparathyroidism again. The mice only subject to the implantation of HSCs were all dead within 20 days.Conclusion A long term therapeutic effect could be obtained by infusing the HSCs which were integrated with PTH gene into the mice suffered from hypoparathyroidism.

Objective: To observe the effects of Lulutong injection on microcirculation disturbance after burns. Methods: Eighty-eight patients with mild burn were randomly divided into two groups. From the first day after burn, the treatment group received 500 mg Lulutong injection intravenously injected in 5% glucose, once a day for 14 days as a therapeutic course. The control group was treated with 5% glucose. No large amount of solution was infused because the burned patients were mild and no shock was found. Both groups were received anti-infection treatment using 0.6 g of clindamycin. The morphology of nail-fold microcirculation , the state around the nail-fold microcirculation, hemorrheological parameters, changes in coagulation function 3, 7 and 14 days after burn and the side effects of drugs were observed. Results: Compared to the control group, in the treatment group, the arterioles dilated more markedly, the blood flow of micro-vessels became faster, the flowing score of nail-fold microcirculation decreased obviously, the state around the nail-fold microcirculation changed significantly, the total score declined faster, but no obvious changes were found in erythrocyte aggregation index, the number of leukocyte adhesion and coagulation function . There were 2 cases with dizziness. Conclusion: Lulutong injection may improve the microcirculation in patients with burn, and has little side effect.

Objective To validate the Partin table 1997,2001 and 2007 for their accuracy in predicting pathologic stage in Chinese prostate cancer patients.Methods From January 1997 to June 2007,109 consecutive patients with clinically localized prostate carcinoma underwent open retropubic or laparoscopic radical prostatectomies and met all inclusion criteria well enrolled.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)analysis was performed tO test the predictive accuracy of organ confined disease (0CD),extraprostatic extension(EPE),seminal vesicle involvement(SVI)and lymph node involvement(LNI). Results OCD,EPE,SVl and LNl were noted in 70%,17%,13%and 0%of cases respectively.The area under curve(AUC)of ROC for Partin table 1997 was 0.727,0.654 and 0.811for 0CD.EPE and SVl respectively,and was 0.693,0.633 and 0.835 for Partin table 2001 and 0.669.0.611 and 0.778 for Partin table 2007.Conclusions Partin tables 1997,2001 and 2007 are able to accurately predict the pathologic feature of seminal vesicle involvement.However,only Partin table 1997 can more accurately predict organ confined disease in this external validation for Chinese patients.

Objective To retrospectively investigate the effects of CYP3A5 * 3,CYP3A4 * 18B and CYP3A5-CYP3A4 phenotype on the C0,D and C0/D of tacrolimus (Tac) in renal transplantation recipients.Methods The CYP3A5 * 3 and CYP3A4 * 18B genotypes of the 61 patients were detected by DNA direct sequencing,and the C0 was detected by ELISA.The differences of C0,D and C0/D on the day 14,and month 1,2 and 3 after transplantation were compared among different genotypes of recipients treated with Tac.Results The frequency of the CYP3A5 * 3 and CYP3A4 * 18B was 74.6％ and 26.2％ respectively.When the D of the recipients with CYP3A5 * 1 ( * 1/* 1 + * 1/* 3)was 1.3-1.6 times to theCYP3A5*3/*3,theC0 of *3/*3 group was 1.1-1.5 times to the * 1group,and the C0/D was 1.8 2.4 times to the CYP3A5 * 1.For CYP3A4,the D of CYP3A4 * 18B group ( * 1/* 18B+ * 18B/* 18B) was 1.2-1.5 times to the CYP3A5 * 1/* 1,but the C0 of 1/* 1was 1.2-1.4 times to the * 18B,the C0/D was 1.5-1.8 times to the * 18B.For the CYP3A5 CYP3A4 phenotype,the D of the recipients with AAAA was 1.3-1.7 times to the GG-GG,the C0 of GG-GG was 1.5-2 times to the AA-AA,the C0/D of the recipients with G@GG was 2.5-3 times to the AA-AA.In the recipients with C0/D above or below the median of C0/D,the distribution of CYP3A5,CYP3A4 and CYP3A5-CYP3A4 phenotypes was different significantly.Conclusion There is a significant correlation between the CYP3A5,CYP3A4 and pharmacokinetics of Tac.It's more powerful evaluating the CYP3A5-CYP3A4 phenotype rather than just one genotype of the recipients.So detecting the CYP3A5 * 3 and CYP3A4 * 18B genotypes prior to transplantation is meaningful for us to determine an appropriate initial and long-time dosage of Tac.

OBJECTIVESTo evaluate the clinical characteristics, in-hospital and three-year outcome in ST-elevation myocardial Infraction (STEMI) patients receiving conservative treatment (CT), thrombolytic treatment (TT) and primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in Beijing.

METHODSThis 12-month prospective, multicenter registry study was conducted in 19 hospitals with 808 patients with STEMI in Beijing between Jan. 2006 and Dec. 2006, 518 (64%) received PCI, 106 (16.1%) received TT and 184 (22.8%) received CT therapy. Patients were followed up for 3 years.

RESULTSAt baseline, the age of patients in CT group [(64.5 ± 13.5) years] was significantly higher than those in TT group p(57.9 ± 11.0) years] and in PCI group [ (60.4 ± 12.3) years, all P<0.01]; and the median time from symptom onset to hospital in CT group (207 min) was significantly longer than those in TT group (130 min) and PCI group (130 min, all P<0.01). Emergency Medical Service (EMS) use was significantly higher in PCI group (184/518, 35.5%) than in CT group (46/184, 27.3%) and TT group (29/107, 25.0%, all P<0.05). Health insurance holder was the highest in PCI group (P<0.01). PCI was performed less frequently than thrombolytic therapy [66.6% (345/518) vs. 80.2% (85/106)m P=0.02] during off-hours and more frequently performed in tertiary hospitals than in secondary hospitals[66.8%(437/651) vs. 52.6% (81/154, P<0.01)]. The in-hospital mortality and the cardiovascular mortality at 3 year after hospital discharge was significantly higher in CT group [9.2% (17/185) and 9.4% (15/159)] than in PCI group [3.5% (18/518), 4.5% (20/446)] and TT group [6.6% (7/106), 2.3% (2/86), all P<0.01]. Patients in PCI group had the highest adherence level of aspirin, β-blocker, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors/angiotensin-receptor blockers or statins at 3-years follow-up (all P<0.05). Multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression analysis showed that only PCI was associated with lower risk of cardiovascular death (HR-0.40, 95% CI:0.21-0.73, P<0.01).

CONCLUSIONSSocial and clinical setting may affect the physician's decision to provide reperfusion therapy in Beijing for STEMI patients. Better adherence of secondary preventive drugs and lower cardiovascular death are observed in STEMI patients receiving PCI during the 3-year follow-up

Objective To analyze the expression of the placenta Grb10 from women conceived by transferred thawed blastocyst,and to evaluate the security of blastocysts vitrification.Methods A cross-sectional study was performed in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of Fujian Provincial Maternity and Children's Hospital from January 2012 to May 2014,50 women conceived by transferring thawing blastocyst and 50 natural pregnancy control women were enrolled in this study.The expression of Grb10 protein was detected by immunohistochemistry and Western blot,and the expression of Grb10 mRNA was detected by Realtime PCR method.Results Comparison of two cases of gestational age,gestational age,fetal sex,fetal body weight,body length,head circumference,abdominal circumference,there were no significant differences(P＞0.05),comparison of placental area,placental weight,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Real-time PCR and Western blot results showed that,there was no significant difference in the expression of Grb10 mRNA and protein between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion Blastocysts vitrification may increase the area and quality of delivery of placenta,however,there was no significant change in the expression of Grb10 in placenta.

Objective Through observing the clinical effect and the changes of gastrointestinal hormones caused by the treatment of different moxibustion time of the superficial gastritis patients due to the spleen and stomach weakness,to investigate the regulation of the dose-effect relation and the adjustment function on gastrointestinal hormone of serum of patients caused by the warming and nourish effect with moxibustion.Methods Eighty-four superficial gastritis Patients due to the spleen and stomach weakness were divided into group 1(treated by warming moxibustion for twenty minutes)(n=28),group 2(treated by warming moxibustion for forty minutes)(n=28),and drug(n=28)groups.The changes of the content of the Prostaglandin E2(PGE2)、Somatostatin(SS)and Epidermal growth factor(EGF)were observed before and after treatment between 3 groups and the clinical effect in different time.Results ①All 3 groups were compared after treatment,their clinical effect had no significant difference(P＞0.05):②Compared with pre-treatment,the superficial gastritis symptom score had a very significant difference after the treatment(3.07±1.54)、(3.11±1.40)、(3.79±2.25)and during the 1 month follow-up(2.25±1.32)、(2.57±1.10)、(4.11±2.48),(P＜0.01);③After treatment,the content of the PGE2 of the serum was increased obviously,compared with pre-treatment.There was a significant difference in each group(33.751±1.267)pg/ml、(33.774±8.583)pg/ml、(32.583±8.259)pg/ml,(P＜0.05);After warming moxibustion for forty minutes,the content of the EGF of the serum was increased obviously,compared with pre-treatment,showing a significant difference(1.331±0.823)pg/ml,(P＜0.05).Conclusion ①All of the three treatment methods had significant curative effect,and the curative effect had no significant difference among these 3 groups.But the moxibustion groups were markedly higher than the drug group in long-term result;②The moxibustion had established adjustment function on gastrointestinal hormone of the superficial gastritis patients due to the spleen and stomach weakness,which suggested that the gastrointestinal hormone may participate in its onset and the process of pathology and physiology.

Objective To describe the characteristics of sexual debut among college students in China to provide appropriate sex education in that population. Methods An anonymous questionnaire survey was conducted among 33 653 college students selected by multi-stage stratified cluster sampling method in 18 provinces and cities of China. Results The percentage of students who had initiated sexual intercourse before age 14 was 1.9%. Overall, male students (2.8%) were significantly more likely to have initiated sexual intercourse before age 14, than female students (1.1%). The percentage of students who had initiated sexual intercourse from age 15 to 18 was 6.4% in males versus 2.1% in females. while the rates of students who had initiated sexual intercourse after age 19 were 6.9% in males and 2.6% in females. The first sexual intercourse was significantly associated with parental educational attainment, geographic location and family structure. Students whose parents were relatively well educated, living in the western areas of the country China, or with nucleus/extensive families were more likely to have early sex in their puberties. Conclusion Sexual education should be strengthened especially in the western areas, and targeted on the students whose parents with relatively higher educational background or who were from extensive families.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the clinical effects of close reduction and minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis in treating proximal humerus fractures in the aged.

METHODSFrom February 2012 to December 2013,39 patients with proximal humerus fractures were treated with minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis (MIPPO group, 21 cases) and open reduction internal fixation (ORIF group, 18 cases). Including 17 males and 22 females in the study, and aged from 67 to 88 years old with an average of (71.8 ± 5.2) years old. In MIPPO group, there were 11 males and 10 females with an average age of (70.0 ± 5.3) years old;and in ORIF group, there were 10 males and 8 females with an average age of (72.0 ± 4.2) years old. Operation time, blood loss during operation, fracture healing time and postoperative complications were recorded. The functions of the shoulder joints were assessed according to Constant-Murley score at final follow-up.

RESULTSAll the patients were followed up from 11 to 27 months with an average of 18.1 months. The mean blood loss of the MIPPO group was (176.0 ± 57.4) ml,while the ORIF group was (356.0 ± 66.9) ml (t = 7.22,P = 0.01). The operation time of the MIPPO group was (47.4 ± 14.9) min, while the ORIF group was (92.7 ± 15.8) min (t = 0.79, P = 0.03). Fracture healing time in the MIPPO group and ORIF group was (17.6 ± 5.8), ( 21.7 ± 4.9) weeks, respectively (P < 0.05). The mean Constant-Murley score at final follow-up was 89.7 ± 14.5 in MIPPO group, and 81.8 ± 13.2 in ORIF group (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONMIPPO has advantages of little trauma, less blood loss, rapid recovery, less vascular damage and so on and can effectively treat the proximal humerus fracture in the aged.
