Objective To investigate the relationship of tumor malignancy with Na+ microcurrent measured by microcurrent detector in order to develop a novel approach for rapid intraoperative diagnosis of tumor.Methods 101 cases of various tumors were studied.Na+ microcurrent of tumor tissue or surrounding normal tissue was measured by Na+ microcurrent detector.All tumor tissues were sampled for histopathological examination as well.Results In 97 cases(96%),the Na+ microcurrent level in tumor tissue was significantly different from that in surrounding normal tissue.It was greater than 30?A in tumor tissue with the maximum of 60-70?A,and averagely 20?A in surrounding normal tissue.The consistency of Na+ microcurrent detection and pathological examination was 96%.Conclusion the measurement of Na+ microcurrent by microcurrent detector is rapid,convenient and accurate,which may become a novel approach for rapid intraoperative diagnosis of tumor malignancy.

Objective To investigate the relationship between human papilloma virus(HPV)infection and the development of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma(LSCC).Methods To elucidate the role of HPV in the development of LSCC,we employed polymerase chain reaction(PCR)based on four pairs of primers an4 in situ hybridization(ISH)to screen the HPV infection in 84 ISCC tissues.Results Using HPV L1 general primer amplification,HPV DNA was detected in 23(27.4%)of the 84 LSCC samples.However,when specific primers for HPV-16 or-18 were used to amplify E6 and E7 in all samples,29 cases(34.5%)were positive for HPV-16,while 6 cases(7.1%)were positive for HPV 18.Coinfeetion of HPV-16 and-18 were found in 4cases (4.8%).Overall,HPV type 16 and 18 infections were present in 36.9% of the LSCC samples.In addition,the positive rate of HPV 16 E6 mRNA was 30.9%(26/84)in LSCC by ISH with digoxin-labeled sense probes of HPV 16 E6.Conclusion High-risk HPV-16may be an etiologic factor in the development of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma, while the complicated molecular mechanism of HPV16 inducedtumorgenesis needs a further study.

Objective To investigate the clinical allocation significance of modified early warning score (MEWS) for emergency department patients.Methods MEWS of 1 069 patients in medical emergency department from August 2011 to March 2013 were recorded and analyzed.The admitted differences of MEWS among in intensive care unit(ICU),general wards and emergency transfer observing patients were compared.Results The MEWS of emergency department patients were different.The deaths and ICU patients together as ICU patients,MEWS ≥ 7 scores the proportion of patients admitted to ICU were significantly higher than those of MEWS 3-6 scores and 0-2 scores [37.8％(14/38) vs.2.1％ (6/289) and 0.1％(1/742)](P＜0.01).Conclusion MEWS provides an objective allocation basis for emergency department patients.

Objective To observe the effects of low frequency transcranial magnetic stimulation (LF-TMS) on the electroencephalogram (EEG),expression of NPY in hippocampus in pilocarpine (PLO)-induced epileptic rats. Methods Forty male Sprague-Dawley rats (240-260 g) were used to establish a model of epilepsy by in- tradominal injection of pilocarpine,and then randomized into 2 groups:a control group and an intervention group. The control group was treated by sham LF-TMS,while the intervention group was treated by LF-TMS once daily for 7 days.Ⅰgroup simply celiac inject pilocarpine.Ⅱgroup celiac inject PLO after LF-TMS.The EEG was recorded in both groups and the checked pathology.Pathological item include HE staining,NPY immunohisto chemical staining. Results The latency for seizure attack was significantly lengthened,while the frequency of seizure attack and times of major seizure attack were significantly decreased in the intervention group.The HE staining revealed significant de- generation and necrosis of neurons in the hippocampus,especially in the CA3 region,in rats in the control group. The pathologic changes were significantly less severe in the intervention,Immunohistochemical staining showed a sig- nificantly higher expression of NPY in the hippocampus as compared with the intervention group. Conclusion U- sing the PLO-induced epilepsy model,LF-TMS could not only postpone the generation of kindling but also inhibit the progress of epilepsy.The increased NPY expression in the hippocampusin the intervention group implied a close rela- tionship between NPY and epilepsy attack.

The effects of several factors on the chlamydospores production of Trichoderma aureoviride T-33 during the fermentation were researched.Based on the results above, the orthogonal test was made to screen out the best prescription.The results showed that, the best single-factor conditions for the chlamydospores production of T.aureoviride T-33 were, liquid culture of oat powder, 30℃, pH4.0, 120r/min, 24 hours oscillate incubating as well as liquid culture volume of 80mL/bottle when the 250mL size triangle bottle was used.The result of orthogonal test showed that, the best prescription for temperature, pH and oscillating speed was 30℃, pH4.0 and 140r/min.3.37?10~ 7 spore/mL chlamydospores were obtained at this combined condition.

Objective To observe the external morphology of Lepidoglyphus destructor hypopus under an optical microscope. Methods The samples were collected in a store of Chinese medicinal herbs in Huainan City in September,2016,the L. de-structor and the hypopus were isolated,and then made of slide specimens. The slide samples were prepared and observed under an optical microscope. Results The L. destructor hypopus and protonymph were found. The inactive hypopus was oval in shape, the feet were not well-developed,there was a distinct transverse seam on its back,and there were 2 pairs of genital sensory or-gans. Conclusion The optical microscopy shows the morphological characteristics of L. destructor hypopus,which can provide the basis for the biological classification and the prevention.

Objective To investigate whether there is Blomia tropicalis breeding in the flour warehouse of food factory in a civil aviation airport,and,if there is,to observe the morphological structure of the mite. Methods The flour samples were col-lected from the flour warehouse of food factory in a civil aviation airport. The breeding mites were isolated from the samples by di-rect microscopy and made into specimens to observe with a light microscope. Results Female Blomia tropicalis was found in the collected flour samples. Under the microscope,the mite was nearly spherical,and it had no tergum and claw. Its apodemeⅠwas developed and connected in the midline. The reproductive hole was located between the foot Ⅲand IV level and was cov-ered with a pair of oblique genital folds. The footⅢandⅣhad no solenoids. The copulatory pouch was a long,slightly curved tube,extending from the end of the mite. Conclusions Blomia tropicalis has been found in the flour warehouse of a food factory in the civil aviation airport. The main distinguishing feature of this mite is that it has no tergum,its feet have no pectinate inferi-or tarsus scales or claw,the feetⅠgenu has only one solenidia,and feetⅢandⅣhave no solenidias.
