Methods F1000-covered papers on clinical medicine published by the top 10 colleges and universities in China from 2005 to 2014 were retrieved.A database was established using Excel and analyzed by SPSS 20.0.Results The number of F1000-covered papers increased significantly although the scientific achievements needed to be fur-ther recognized in the world.Conclusion The scientific research competitive power in colleges and universities can be effectively assessed in different aspects.The F1000-covered data are very convincing due to its strict operational mechanisms .

Objective To prepare 60 mer oligo microarray chips for detecting human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and for the clinical application in the detection of AIDS patient. Methods Oligonucleotide probes were designed according to the sequence information of two types of HIV. Oligo microarray was prepared by using Cartesian Microarrayer. Products of the restrictive display PCR were labeled with Cy3. Furthermore, the PCR products were sequenced. Results Using the oligo microarray, HIV infection could be detected in laboratory as well as in clinical assays. Results of hybridization indicated that 1 AIDS patient was positive and 20 health people were negative. The results obtained by sequencing confirmed the results obtained by oligo microarray studies. Conclusion The HIV 60 mer oligo microarray could be used in detecting patient HIV infection and analyzing its genotypes.

Objective To invesgate the effect of P-glycoprotein(PGP)inhibitor,verapamil,on electrobiological activity and seizure behavior in phenytoin-carbamazepine(PHT-CBZ)resistant rats.Methods The model of medically intractable epilepsy was established by kindling of amygdale. Verapamil was applied to PHT-CBZ resistant rats,followed by the observation on after discharge threshold (ADT),after discharge duration(ADD)and seizure activity.Results Compared with the control group, the ADT was higher in PHT-CBZ resistant rats peritoneally injected with verapamil((238.0?32.2)?A vs (177.0?23.3)?A,P

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the inhibitory effect of genistin combined with anastrozole on the growth and apoptosis of breast tumor tissue, and to study their anti-cancer mechanism by using the model of 7,12-dimethylbenz [alpha] anthracene (DMBA)-induced mammary tumors following ovariectomy in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats.

METHODSThe DMBA induced postmenopausal SD rats were randomly divided into the control group, the genistein group, the anastrozole group, and the genistein combined with anastrozole group. The growth of tumors was observed in each group. The proliferation index and apoptosis index of tumor cells were determined. Moreover, estradiol (E2) and 17beta-HSD1 mRNA levels were determined by ELISA and RT-PCR respectively.

RESULTSThe tumor growth was inhibited in the genistein group and the anastrozole group. The inhibitory ratio was significantly higher in the genistein combined with anastrozole group (P < 0.05). Compared with the control group, levels of E2 and 17beta-HSD1 mRNA decreased more significantly in the genistein combined with anastrozole group (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONSGenistein could suppress the growth of mammary tumors in postmenopausal rats. It showed synergistic effect when combined with anastrozole, which resulted in reduced levels of E2 and 17beta-HSD1 mRNA. It had inhibitory effect on the growth of breast tumors.

Objective To investigate emotion recognition in music in patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD),and to further explore its relationship with executive function and related factors.Methods Twenty-four PD patients enrolled from the Department of Neurology,Beijing Hospital between January and June 2014 and 24 matched healthy controls were tested using 24 musical excerpts that expressed happiness,sadness,fear or anger.The two groups were tested for executive function using a simplified trail making test and a clock drawing test.All the patients were rated on the Hoehn-Yahr stage,the Unified Parkinson' s Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) Ⅲ,the Hamilton Rating Scale for Anxiety (HAMA) and the Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAMD).Results In trail making test,PD patients worked slower ((51.58 ±33.14) s) than controls ((34.46 ± 19.64) s) (t =2.178,P =0.036).PD patients got more errors (0 (QL =0,QU =2.5)) than controls (0 (QL =0,QU =0);Z=-2.372,P =0.018).In clock drawing test,PD patients got lower score (2.63 ±0.65) than controls (2.96 ±0.20)(t =-2.407,P =0.023).The difference between two groups was not statistically significant in the recognition of happy,sad,fear or anger music (all P ＞ 0.05).In PD group,the scores of the recognition of happy,sad music and the total score of musical emotion recognition were associated with the time of trail making test (r =-0.560,-0.572,-0.530,P =0.004,0.003,0.008),while not related to age,disease duration,education duration,the scores of Minimum Mental State Examination,the scores of UPDRS Ⅲ,Hoehn-Yahr stage,the scores of HAMA,the scores of HAMD,LDE,the scores of clock drawing test or musical background (all P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions PD patients are not impaired in emotion recognition in music in this study.The relationship between musical emotion recognition and executive function is unclear.

A two-step method for the purification of blocking-type anti-human CD80 monoclonal antibody 4E5 from mouse ascites was developed using anion exchange and gel filtration in combination. The ascites was first purified by anion exchange after centrifugation and filtration. The experimental parameters of sample loading and elution were optimized. The optimized loading condition was pH 8.0,50 mmol/L Tris-HCl and satisfactory results were obtained using a 0~0.5mol/L NaCl step elution. The fraction containing the protein of interest was directly loaded on gel filtration column and eluted using a 20 mmol/L phosphate buffer at pH 7.2. The purity of the obtained monoclonal antibody was up to 95% with a recovery of 61%. The purity of mAb could efficiently inhibit the growth of Daudi cells. The amplification of the method was also studied using a Bio-Scale Q5 column and the result was satisfied.

0.05).At post- operative 30 days and 90 days,ECD were(6.39?0.90)%,(6.54?1.24)% respectively in the torsional group and(13.17?1.78)%, (13.67?2.36)% respectively in the US group,the differences between two groups were statistically(P0.05).Conclusion The torsional mode may provide more effective lens re- moval with a lower level of phacoemulsification time and energy.It can reduce the ultrasound energy and the intraocular trauma.(Oph- thalmol CHN,2008,17:82-85)

Objective To determine the incidence and risk factors of iatrogenic retinal breaks in eyes undergoing pars plana vit- rectomy for idiopathic macular pucker.Design Retrospective case series.Participant 88 consecutive vitrectomies performed on eyes with idiopathic macular pucker.Method Consecutive vitrectomies performed on eyes with idiopathic macular pucker at Beijing Tongren Eye Center between 2002 and 2006 were retrospectively reviewed.Cases with iatrogenic retinal breaks were recorded and analyzed. Main Outcome Measure Number and location of retinal breaks,and anatomic outcome after surgical managements.Result A total of 88 consecutive vitrectomies were included in the study.Of the 88 eyes,8 eyes had 14 iatrogenic retinal breaks detected,with an aver- age incidence of 9.1%.Peripheral retinal breaks(8.0%)were more common than posterior retinal breaks(1.1%).All peripheral retinal breaks occurred around the selerotomy sites(100%)and the quadrant of predominant hand was involved most commonly(62%).Most of the breaks(88%)were detected during the surgery.All eyes with iatrogenic retinal breaks obtained anatomic retinal reattachment (100%).Conclusion Despite improvements in instrumentation and surgical techniques,iatrogenic retinal break continues to be an im- portant complication of pars plana vitrectomy in eyes with idiopathic macular pucker.This complication tends to occur more commonly at peripheral retina and is mainly selerotomy-related.
