Proteomics is a new field of studying the protein and its dynamic axiom of transmutation in cells.In recent years,it has been used as a powerful tool in research of life science.Proteomics functions as a new method to investigate the pathogenesis of diseases.In this article,the up-to-date information of proteomics technologies in autoimmune disease research are reviewed.

Objective To investigate the significance of anti-mutated citrullinated vimentin(MCV)an- tibody in rheumatoid arthritis(RA)and study the correlation among anti-CCP,other antoantibodies and clinical manifestations of RA.Methods Anti-MCV antibody was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)in 166 serum samples including 74 from RA(18 cases with early RA and 56 cases with late RA),50 from non-RA rheumatic diseases and 42 cases of healthy blood donors.At the same time,other antuoantibod- ies were detected by different techniques,and their clinical meaning was investigated with the corresponding clinical data.Results Anti-MCV was found in 78%(58/74)of RA.The sensitivity and specificity of Anti- MCV in RA were 78% and 95%.The positive and negative predictive value was 97% and 71%.The average cut off concentration of Anti-MCV was(552?380)U/ml in RA,(162?63)U/ml in non-RA and(63?46)U/ml in healthy control.Anti-MCV was strongly correlated to anti-CCP(r=0.502,P=0.000),then AKA(r=0.408)anti APF(r=0.369).No differences was found between Anti-MCV and other clinical/laboratory parameters(P＞0.05). Conclusion Anti-MCV antibody may be a valuable diagnostic parameter for RA.Anti-MCV is more strongly correlated to anti-CCP than APE and AKA.It may not relate to disease activity and/or severity.

Objective To investigate the safety and efficacy of structured triglycerides in parenteral nutrition in elderly patients with acute biliary tract infection.Methods 62 elderly patients with acute biliary tract infection under conservative therapy were randomly divided into structured triglycerides (ST) group and medium-chain triglycerides plus long-chain triglycerides (MCT/LCT) group.Patients underwent parenteral nutrition for 5 days.Levels of hepatic enzymes,blood triglycerides,nitrogen balance,fasting blood insulin and glucose were compared between the two groups after 5 days of parenteral nutrition.Results There were no significant differences in levels of hepatic enzymes,blood triglycerides and fasting blood glucose between ST group and MCT/LCT group.Plasma total bilirubin (T-Bill) levels were increased in the two groups,and T-Bill level dropped faster in the ST group than in the MCT/LCT group after 7 days of parenteral nutrition(P＜ 0.05).The difference in total cholesterol level dropping was significant between ST group and MCT/ LCT group (P＜0.05).The cumulative nitrogen balance for 5 days had significant difference between ST and MCT/LCT groups [(4.7-±-2.2) g vs.(2.8±0.7) g,P＜0.05].STG group versus MCT/LCT group had less fluctuation of fasting blood insulin level after 1,4 and 7 days of parenteral nutrition.Conclusions In the acute phase of biliary tract infection in elderly patients,ST-based parenteral nutrition can provide energy and help maintain nitrogen balance,with a little fluctuation of fasting blood insulin level.Short-term nutritional support may have better tolerance in the liver and has little effect on the change of hepatic enzymes.

Objective To carried out rat as deep inferior epigastic perforator (DIEP) flap necrosis model,to reveal the continuous blood fluid change in process of flap necrosis.Methods Seven SpragueDawley rats of male were used.The designed DIEP flap model was pedicled on the right-sided cranial perforator.Near-infrared fluorescent angiography was performed using SPY imaging system pre-and-aft operation and all angiography videos were compared and analyzed.Results Using SPY imaging system could observe the process of the blood fluid scattered from perforator through choke anastomoses to next vascular territories in living body.The study could clearly observe sequence change of blood fluid pr-and-aft operation,which could give the important information in revealing the reason of necrosis in DIEP flap.Cross-midline traffic vascular sparse and eventually could no longer wear through the contralateral abdominal wall vessel area and open in the region of lateral thoracic vascular occlusion of blood vessels to reach the flap to the far left side,and showed no blood flow in the dark zone.Conclusion The reasons of necrosis of contralateral distal zone of the flap model,are the choke anastomoses across the midline to the contralateral side appeared small,less intensity and the blood supply to contralatral distal zone should through twice choke anastomoses.

Objective To research whether the polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) level in prenatal and postpartum women af‐fect the incidence of postpartum depression .Methods 102 eligible and voluntary parturients of full‐term normal delivery were se‐lected and the serum specimens before labor and on postpartum 3 ,42 d were respectively collected for detecting serum PUFAs lev‐els .The perinatal depression related factors questionnaire and the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) were filled in and the scores were evaluated for analyzing the incidence of postpartum depression .Results Among 102 pregnant women and parturi‐ents ,the postputum depression appeared in 28 cases with the positive rate of 27 .5% .The incidence rate of postpartum depression in the eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) low values group and the docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) low and medium values groups was higher than that in the high values groups ;the incidence rate of postpartum depression in the arachidonic acid (AA) high value group was the higher than that in the low value group .Conclusion The lower the EPA and DHA levels ,the easier to develop depression .

Objective To discuss the relationships between serum uric acid levels and clinical stages,cognitive dysfunction in parkinson' s disease (PD).Methods Sixty patients of PD were enrolled,and their history,detailed physical examination UPDRS Ⅲ scale and mini-mental state score (MMSE) scale were performed to determine the Hoehn-Yahr stage of patients.At the same time 52 cases of healthy person were collected from the Health Examination Centers whose age,sex,and education matched with PD group as control group.The levels of serum uric acid in the two groups were examined and compared.Results The serum uric acid levels in PD group were significantly lower than those in normal control group((262.4 ±85.2) μmol/L vs (357.6 ±73.3) μmol/L) (t =1.013,P =0.005) ;There was no level correlation between different Hoehn-Yahr stage period of PD group (r =0.143,P ＞ 0.05) ; There was no significant difference on serum uric acid levels between subgroup of PD patients (F =1.014,P =0.06) ;The M MSE score between PD group and normal control group had no significant difference (26.12 ± 2.87 vs 28.32 ± 2.17) (t =1.970,P =0.073).Conclusion Low level of the serum uric is likely to be a risk factor for PD,but cannot be used to assess the severity of disease and MMSE scale used to determine the cognitive impairment in PD is not sensitive enough.

Objective To evaluate the technique and outcome of arthroscopic reconstruction of posterior cruciate ligament(PCL)with preservation of the remnants.Methods From January 2006 to January 2009.16 knees in 16 patients with PCL tear were verified with arthroscopy.All the damaged PCL were reconstructed with single bundle of autogenous quadrupled hamstring tendons under arthroscopy without remove of the remnants of PCL.Endo-button and Bio-absorbabh interference screw were used for direct anatomic fixation of the reconstructed ligament.Results No severe complication occurred in early stage after operation in the 16 patients.All of them were followed up from 4 to 14 months with an average of (7.4±2.1)months.Lysholm score was remarkable improved from mean(61.3±8.7)preoperative scores to mean(91.7±6.3)scores at the latest follow up(P＜0.05).Furthermore,there was a significant improvement in IKDC scofe from abnormal (grade C)in 9 knees and severely abnormal (grade D)in 7 knees preoperatively to normal(grade A)in 11 knees,nearly normal(grade B)in 5 knees at the follow up.All of the 16 patients returned to the same sports level before injury.Conclusion Arthroscopic reconstruction of PCL with preservadon of the remnants has advantages of minimal inmmrticular interference,and potential facility to revagculization and reinnervation of the reconstlucted ligament.

Objective To investigate a new method and to observe the clinical effect of repairing the lower eyelid ectropion assisted with the subcutaneous pedicle flap from temporal region. Methods Since 2007, 24 patients with lower eyelid ectropion were treated with the subcutaneous pedicle flap from temporal region which was the donor area without hairs, including 8 cases of scar infection, 6 cases of trauma, and 10 cases of tumor removal. Among the 24 cases of the flap, the maximum area was 5. 5 cm× 1. 5 cm,and the minimum was 4. 0 cm × 1.0 cm. Results All patients were followed up for 6 months to 3 years.All flaps survived completely with excellent texture and appearance. The donor site was hidden and no obvious malformation of the donor site was observed. Conclusions Because the blood supply of flap is reliable and the incision in the donor site is hidden, the subcutaneous pedicle flap from temporal region pedicled with arterial network of the outer canthus is an ideal donor site for repairing the lower eyelid ectropion with full thickness defects.

Objective To explore the management strategy for liver trauma combined with juxla-hepatic venous injury and discuss relating factors leading to postoperative deaths. Methods The clini-cal data of 11 patients with juxtahepatic venous injury were retrospectively analyzed in aspects of prefer-ence of irregular hepatectomy and vein repair.There were 8 males and 3 females,at age range of 22-65 years(mean 33.7 years).Injury causes included traffic injury in 7 patients,fall-from-height injury in 3 and crush injury in 1.Of all,9 patients were combined with other abdominal organ injury and 7 with over one part fractures.All patients showed symptom of shock on admission. Results No patient died dur-ing operation but 3 died after operation.The complications included bleeding in 6 patients,severe infec-tion in 2.liver function failure in 3, acute renaI function failure in 2.bile-1eakage in 4,abdominal ab-scess in 4 and incision infection in 6. Conclusion Low blood pressure in the operation is the main cause for death.It is safe and effective to treat liver trauma combined with juxtahepatic venous injury with irregular hepatectomy and vein repair.
