20?109/L in 12 to 19(median 14)days after transplantation.Complete chimerism was achieved in all the patients at one month after HSCT.Two patients had acute GVHD and one had chronic GVHD.With a median follow-up of 31(19~37)months,8 of 9 patients were alive and disease-free.Conclusion The intravenous Bu/Flu conditioning regimen may reduce transplantation-related toxicities and can achieve full chimerism and high long-term disease-free survival.Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation using intravenous Bu/Flu conditioning regimen is a safe and effective option for the patients with myeloid hematopathy.

Hypertension, which has variant of pathogenesis, is one of the most widely spread chronic diseases with serious complications. Antihypertensive drugs can reduce blood pressure and alleviate or reverse cardiovascular remodeling by affecting one or more processes of blood pressure adjusting system. This review focus on targets of antihypertensive drugs associated with Renin angiotensin system, Adrenergic system, Bradykinin Prostacyclin system, Endothelia factor relative system, iron channels and the progresses in the studies of gene therapy for hypertension.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the productive rate of AmpC ?-lactamases and ESBLs produced by the Gram-negative bacilli from the nosocomial infection in our hospital. METHODS AmpC ?-lactamases and ESBLs were detected by the improved cefotaxime and ceftriaxone three-dimensional test. RESULTS The productive rate of AmpC ?-lactamases was 16.00%.Among them,the productive rate of AmpC ?-lactamases was only 8.84%.The Enterobacter cloacae,Serratia marcescens and Enterobacter aerogenes were easy to produce the enzymes(36.00%,31.25% and 28.00%).The productive rate of AmpC ?-lactamases and ESBLs at the same time was 7.16%. CONCLUSIONS The productive rate of the enzymes by the Gram-negative bacilli from the nosocomial infection is rather high.

OBJECTIVE To understand the relationship between the detection rate of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in Children′s Hospital wards from Jan 2008 to Sep 2008 and disinfection and isolation in the department and investigate the change in antimierobial resistance of P.aeruginosa to provide basis for reasonable use of antibiotics in clinical practice.METHODS The clinically isolated P.aeruginosa strains were collected,cultured and identified by paper diffusing method.The results were evaluated according to the relevant documents of NCCLS of USA.RESULTS The resistant rates of P.aeruginosa to Ampicillin,Ampicillin/Sulbactam,ceftriaxone,cefazolin and SMI were higher than 98%.Their resistant rate to Levofloxacin and IMP was the lowest(about 2% or so).CONCLUSIONS Effective disinfection and isolation of P.aeruginosa should be performed.Selection of antimicrobial drugs should be according to the results of drug susceptibility,reduce the rate of bacterial resistance.

In the present study, the effect of serum (fetal bovine serum, FBS) on cellular uptake behaviors of DNA tetrahedron (TDNs) was investigated.Fluorescence-labeled TDNs were synthesized by self-assembly and purified with HPLC to achieve TDNs product with purity of 95%.By means of flow cytometry and confocal microscopy, the kinetics of TDNs endocytosis in HeLa cells in the presence or absence of FBS was compared.The results showed that TDNs remained intact in complete medium and cell lysate for more than 12 hours.FBS increased the amount of internalized TDNs in HeLa cells, whereas it did not change the route of caveolin-dependent endocytosis.Herein, our study provided a new insight into the effects of biomolecules on the interaction between cells and DNA nanostructures, which helped the future development of DNA-based intracellular nanocarriers.

Objective To study extended high frequency (EHF) audiometry for early detection of hearing loss in student pilots in civil aviation.Methods A total of 175 student pilots (all male,18~25 years old, mean 20.2±0.92 years) from a university flight academy were surveyed and underwent EHFA.All subjects had hearing thresholds ≤25 dB HL at conventional frequencies (0.25~8 kHz).The results were compared with the corresponding recommended standards in other countries.According to the use of personal listening devices, all the subjects were divided into the low risk group (non-use, 121 cases) and the high risk group (using>1 year, day>1 hour, 52 cases).The differences of hearing thresholds and detection rates at EHF between the two groups were compared.Results The hearing thresholds of 173 subjects (1 case of middle ear disease and 1 case with family history of hearing loss were excluded) at 9~20 kHz were slightly higher than the reference equivalent threshold sound pressure level (RETSPL) prescribed by American National Standardization Association and the age-matched thresholds recommended by a foreign literature (P<0.05 or P<0.01).The hearing thresholds in the high risk group elevated dramatically than that in the low risk group at 9,12.5,16 and 18 kHz(P<0.05 or P<0.01).As frequencies increased, the detection rate of hearing thresholds in the high risk group decreased gradually, and at 18 and 20 kHz it was significantly lower than that in the low risk group (P<0.01).Conclusion EHF audiometry is a helpful tool for early detection of noise-induced hearing loss in student pilots.Hearing health care should be emphasized in civilian student pilots.It is recommended to avoid the use of personal listening devices or reduce the use time of them.

BACKGROUND: The effectiveness and safety of traditional Chinese medicine treatment for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have been preliminarily approved by clinical practices.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of Gubenkeli capsule on the protein expression of matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase1 (TIMP-1) in lung tissue of COPD model rats.METHODS: A total of 50 Wistar rats were randomly divided into five groups with 10 rats in each group: normal control, model, prednisone, Gubenkeli capsule-low dose, and Gubenkeli capsule-high dose. COPD rat models were established in all rats with the exception of the normal control rats by smoking and intratracheal instillation of LPS. At 29 days after COPD induction, rats from the prednisone, Gubenkeli capsule-low dose, Gubenkeli capsule-high dose groups were intragastrically administered prednisone (1.04 mg/kg per day), Gubenkeli capsule (0.4, 0.94 g/kg per day), once a day, to observer rat general conditions. Protein expression of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 in the lung tissue was detected by immunohistochemical methods. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Protein expression of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 in the lung tissue of COPD rats was significantly increased (P < 0.05). After drug intervention, the general conditions of COPD rats were greatly improved, and protein expression of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 in the lung tissue was decreased. Prednisone yields the strongest effects, followed by high-dose Gubenkeli capsule and low-dose Gubenkeli capsule. These findings demonstrate that Gubenkeli capsule alleviates the clinical manifestations of COPD model rats, improve airway remodeling, and correct the imbalance between prolease and antiprotease in a dose-response manner.

Objective To quantitatively assess the geometry configuration of mitral valve and annulus in the ischemic mitral regurgitation(IMR) and non-ischemic mitral regurgitation(NIMR) by real-time threedimensional transesophageal echocardiography (RT-3D-TEE),and provide a basis for surgical cardiac surgery.Methods 98 patients undergone RT-3D-TEE examination were enrolled in this study,and were divided into three groups:IMR group (n =43),NIMR group (n =33),and no mitral regurgitation group (control group,n =22).Full-volume 3D dynamic images of mitral annulus and valve were obtained.The images were off-line analyzed using Qlab 7.0 MVQ workstation,and the geometry indexes:area of leaflets (A3DE),area of anterior leaflet (A3DE Ant),area of posterior leaflet (A3DE Post),perimeter of annulus (C3D),anterolateral to posteromedial diameter of annulus (DAlPm),anterior to posterior diameter of annulus (DAP),annulus height (H),maximal prolapse height (HProl),maximal tenting height (HTent),volume of leaflet prolapse (Vprol),volume of the leaflets tent (Vtent),Aortic orifice to mitral plane angle (θ),angle of anterior leaflet (θAnt),non-planar angle of leaflets (θNPA),angle of posterior leaflet (θPost)and other mitral valve leaflets and annulus,were derived and statistically analyzed.Results Compared with the control group,significant increases of A3DE,A3DE Ant,DAP and θPost,and decreases of θ and θNPA were demonstrated in IMR group,the differences were statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).Significant increases of A3DE,A3DE Ant,DAP,HProl,Vprol and θNPA,and decreases of θ,θAnt and θPost were explored in NIMR group,the differences were statistically significant (P ＜0.05).Compared with NIMR group,a reduction of A3DE,A3DE Ant,DAP,HProl and θNPA,and increases of θAnt and θPost were found in IMR group and the differences were statistically significant (P ＜0.05).Conclusions Both IMR group and NIMR group could lead to mitral annulus dilatation,leaflets area increase,and mitral annulus geometry change,the overall mitral annulus tends to flatten were more obvious in the NIMR group than those in IMR group.The prolapse is more prominent in NIMR group than those in IMR Group.The difference of mitral annulus geometry between IMR group and NIMR group indicates that the damage of the mitral leaflets and annulus might be more serious in NIMR group.

Objective To understand the capacity of application,and discuss the types as well as the mechanism of these dysfunctions.Methods A battery of neuropsychological tests including tool naming,tool naming by function,using of transitive tools,novel task test and naming photographs (living and inanimate) were applied in this study.20 AD patients and 20 healthy controls were enrolled in the study.Results The AD patients performed worse than the controls on the tool naming,tool naming by function,application of transitive tool,novel task test,naming tasks of living and inanimate pictures.The results represented significance in all of the tests (t =-6.54,-5.94,-4.16,-4.81,-2.17,-2.08 ; P ＜ 0.05).There were significant correlations between the performances in application the tasks and the ADAS-cog,MMSE and ADL scores (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The findings indicate that AD patients have apraxia,mainly impairment in ideomotor apraxia and ideational apraxia.Additionally,the patients have significantly decreased performance in ideational apraxia.The result suggests that AD patients' apraxia might result from the semantic processing disorder.
