Objective To investigate the pathological features of Lewy body disease. Methods An autopsy case of an 80 year old Chinese woman suffering from Lewy body disease was studied The patient had progressive dementia and myotonia for three years and was suspected with Alzheimer dementia clinically Brain tissue was analyzed neuropathologically by using HE staining and specific staining for nervous system, immunohistochemical staining for ubiquitin and by using ? synuclein and electronic microscopy. Results Neuropathological examination revealed the most characteristic features as follows: (1) The number of melanin pigmented neurons were markedly decreased in the substantia nigra and locus ceruleus, and some typical brain stem type Lewy bodies in the residual neurons with moderate gliosis were found (2) There appeared numerous cortical type Lewy bodies in deep layers of the cerebral cortex particularly in the cingulate gyrus, hippocampus, parahippocampal gyrus, transentorhinal contex, amygdala and insula (3) There were selective spongiform changes and many Lewy related neurites in positive ubiquitin immunohistochemical staining on the CA2/3 sectors, parahippocampal gyrus and transentorhinal cortex (4) A strong positive ? synuclein immunoreactivity was found in all Lewy bodies and Lewy related neurites (5) Alzheimer disease related changes such as senile plaques and neurofibrillary tangles were scarcely found only in hippocampus and parahippocampal gyrus. Conclusion Lewy body disease is a new group of degenerative disease of the central nervous system ? synuclein may play an important role in the degeneration of neurons and their neurites may be a major component of Lewy bodies in Lewy body disease It is considered that the present case should be a pure type of diffuse Lewy body disease

OBJECTIVEThis study aims to observe and compare the influences of the casting alloy post and cores on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
METHODSSix casting alloy post and sores were fabricated for the experimental groups, and zirconia post and core served as the control. The seven types of post and cores were of the same size and shape. Each post and core was orally fastened to a volunteer and then imaged with sequences of T1-weighted spin echo imaging (SE-T1WI), T2-weighted turbo spin-echo imaging (TSE-T2WI), and diffusion weighted imaging (DWI).
RESULTSCobalt chromium alloy post and core generated severe artifacts, whereas gold palladium alloy post and core generated no obvious artifacts, and no difference was observed between the zirconia and the gold palladium alloy post and cores (P > 0.05). The pure titanium alloy post and core produced mild artifacts. The post and cores of the titanium, nickel-cadmium, and gold platinum alloys generated moderate artifacts with no significant differences (P > 0.05).
CONCLUSIONDifferent metal post and cores have different influences on MRI. With the exception of that generated by cobalt chromium alloy, the artifact generated by the single-alloy post and core does not influence the image of the normal head and neck.

OBJECTIVE:To learn the application and tendency of hepatoprotective drugs in a third grade class A hospital dur-ing 2011-2014,and to provide reference for rational drug use. METHODS:DDDs analysis and consumption ordering method were adopted to analyze the change of DDDs,DDC and other index of hepatoprotective drugs in this hospital from 2011 to 2014. RE-SULTS:2011-2014,the amount and DDDs of Hepatoprotective injection in this hospital increased year by year,while oral dosage form decreased year by year. DDC order of each drug kept stable during 2011-2014;DDC and DDDs of drugs for promoting ener-gy metabolism were all in high level,and ornithine aspartate and ademetionine always took up the first 2 places in 4 years. Polyene phosphatidylcholine and Reduced glutathione injection were cheap,but had higher DDDs. Except Glutathione tablet,DUI of other hepatoprotective drugs had no great difference in 3 years,and fluctuated in 2014;hepatoprotective drugs with DUI>1 and DUI<1 occupied a large proportion. From 2010 to 2014,compared with previous year,the drugs with consumption sum/DDDs ratio num-ber close to 1 reduced significantly in the next year,decreasing year by year. CONCLUSIONS:In this hospital,injections are used too frequently,and overuse of drugs for promoting energy metabolism exist. Polyene phosphatidylcholine and Reduced glutathione injection can be used as a valuable drug in the clinic,and their cost are more acceptable,but not in excess.

More than 20 protein bands with molecular weights of 19—175 KD in 18 strains of Ureaplosma urealyticum were detected by SDS-PAGE and thin layer scanning analysis. The molecular weights of major proteins were between 32 KD and 140 KD. Among them, the percentages of 67, 78 and 140 KD proteins were similar in all strains, but those of 32, 43 and 94 KD proteins were greatly different. Thus, Ureaplasma urealyticum can be divided into two groups: group A including serovars 2,5,7,9,10,11,12, and local isolates C,D, E, F; group B including serovars 1,3,6,13,14, and local isolates A, B. The serovars of Ureaplasma urealyticum could not be distinguished by using SDS-PAGE alone.

An extracellular proteinase from Candida albicans WD27 was purified by (NH4)2SO4 fractionation and DEAE-Sephacel ion-exchange chromatography with 25.4 fold and 5.2% yield. This enzyme appeared to be aspartic proteinase since the enzyme activity could be inhibited by pepstatin which was specific inhibitor of this class of proteinase. The enzyme had an acidic proteolytic activity profile with the optimum pH of 4.0. The optimum temperature of the enzyme activity was 37℃. The proteinase had a broad substrate specificity with the highest susceptibility to bovine hemoglobin. The Km for bovine hemoglobin was determined to be 0.814mmol/L.
