Decoy receptor 3(DcR3) gene expresses highly in some malignant tumors,it involves cellular proliferation regulation, inhibition of apoptosis, immune escape and tumor angiogenesis by competitively blocking the Fas/FasL, LIGHT and TL1 A/DR3 signal pathway, therefore it deeply relates to the malignant tumors's generation and progression.DcR3 is supposed to be the new tumor-specific marker that may cast the light to the tumor generation,development,prevention,diagnosis,treatment,prognosis and effect observation.DcR3 is expected to be open a new chapter in clinical application.

In order to probe into the role of plasma glucagon in the pathogenesis of NIDDM, the concentrations of fasting blood glucose, serum insulin and plasma glucagon were assayed in 327 subjects with normal glucose tolerance (group Ⅰ), 25 patients with NIDDM (group Ⅱ) and 20 NIDDM patients treated with drugs (group Ⅲ). The levels of blood glucose, plasma glucagon and serum insulin in group Ⅱ were 9. 28?2.30 mmol/L,159. 55?34. 13ng/L and 15. 16?10. 79mIU/L respectively, and were significantly higher than those of group Ⅰ(4. 71?0. 64mmol/L,83.12?12.39ng/L and 10. 43?6. 86mIU/L respectively). The levels of blood glucose and plasma glucagon in group Ⅲ were 7. 15?2. 44 mmol/L and 124. 99?37. 23 ng/L respectively and were lower than those of group Ⅱ, no significant difference in serum insulin levels was noted. Correlation analysis showed that blood glucose had a positive linear correlation with plasma glucagon in the three groups (r=0. 8720,0. 9400,0. 8731,respectively, P

OBJECTIVEUsing the algorithm on the layered structure of the retina and quantitative analysis of the automatic segmentation technique is the key to the early diagnosis of glaucoma and other retinopathy on optical coherence tomography. Existing methods require high quality image and have low reliability. This paper used the improved complex nonlinear diffuse filtering and other methods to solve this problem.

METHODSThis paper includes algorithm such as automatic threshold, improved complex nonlinear diffusion filtering, morphological operations and peak detection. Use the method for the segmentation of 20 retinal layers images which acquired on the self-builder OCT system, the boundary of inner limiting membrane(ILM), outer nuclear layer(ONL), the photoreceptor segments(IS/ OS) and the RPE_ChCap layer are detected accurately. At last, the photoreceptor layer thickness is measured.

RESULTSThe results of segmentation and measurement are good corresponded with expert manual segmentation and measurements, retinal foveal measurements data is consistent with Zeiss Stratus OCT central retinal thickness 212+/-20 micro m.

CONCLUSIONThe algorithm proposed is prospective applied to clinical diagnosis of retinal diseases.

BACKGROUND: Opiate drugs are widely used to control chronic cancer pain, which brings many adverse reactions. Transplantation of sodium alginate-polylysine-alginate microencapsulated bovine adrenal chromaffin cell (BCC) has reported to be used as chronic cancer pain controllers. However, the high price and poor strength of polylysine limited its clinical application. Chitosan is characterized by sufficient resource, low price and good biocompatibility, which is a substitute for polylysine.OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of xenotransplantation of sodium alginate-chitosan-alginate (ACA) microencapsulated BCC on patients with advanced cancer pain.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: A retrospective case analysis. All cases were obtained from Department of Oncology, Affiliated Zhongshan Hospital of Dalian University from January 2007 to December 2008.PARTICIPANTS: Totally 10 patients with advanced cancer, including 1 female and 9 males, aged 46-78 years. According to visual algetic mimic scale (VAS), 3 patients suffered moderate pain and 7 cases suffered severe pain.METHODS: Microencapsulation method was applied to encapsulate BCC with ACA membrane and transplant the microencapsulated BCC (5-7)×10~6 into the subarachnoids pace of 10 patients.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The degree of pain release, duration of analgesic effect, as well as adverse reaction.RESULTS: All 10 patients had pain relief rapidly after transplantation in varying degrees. Complete pain relief was shown in 2 cases, medium relief in 1 case, slight relief in 4 cases. Slight irritation of cauda eguina was presented after transplantation, which could disappear within 3-5 days.CONCLUSION: Xenotransplantation of ACA microencapsulated BCC into the spinal subarachnoids pace of patients with cancer pain can produce analgesic effect promptly, significantly, and safely.

Objective To investigate the association between concentrations of environmental air pollutants and the daily number of outpatient visits for urticaria in Beijing. Methods Time series analysis in combination with distributed lag non?linear model(DLNM)and Spearman′s rank correlation test was used to analyze the association between PM2.5 concentrations and the daily number of outpatient visits for urticaria. All effect estimates were expressed as a risk ratio(RR)for the daily number of outpatient visits with an interquartile range(IQR)increase of 82.8 μg/m3 in PM2.5. Results From January 1st 2013 to June 30th 2014, the daily average PM2.5 concentration, temperature, relative humidity and number of visits for urticaria were 89.3 μg/m3, 12.7 ℃, 51.9% and 27.3 respectively. Spearman′s rank correlation test showed that the daily average PM2.5 concentration and number of visits for urticaria were correlated with daily mean temperature(rs =-0.21, 0.36, respectively, P < 0.05)and relative humidity(rs = 0.49, 0.31, respectively, P < 0.05), but no correlation was observed between daily average PM2.5 concentrations and daily number of visits for urticaria(rs=0.01, P>0.05). There was no significant correlation between daily number of outpatient visits for urticaria and daily PM2.5 concentration lagged by 0-14 days(RR=1, 95%CI:0.89, 1.13). After potential confounding factors were adjusted, an 82.8μg/m3 increase in daily PM2.5 concentration at lag 0-20 days was significantly associated with a 22%(95%CI:3%, 46%)increase in daily number of outpatient visits for urticaria, suggesting that the lagged effect of PM2.5 was obviously increased. Conclusion The association between PM2.5 concentrations and the number of visits for urticaria is easily affected by meteorological factors and biological confounding factors, and relative humidity and mean temperature are both positively correlated with the number of visits for urticaria.

Objective To investigate the association between air pollution and the daily number of outpatient visits for dermatitis in Beijing city, and to evaluate the sensitivity to air pollution in populations of different gender and age. Methods Time-series data on daily outpatient visits for dermatitis between April 2012 and April 2014 were collected from Air Force General Hospital of PLA. The daily average concentrations of sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen dioxide(NO2), and particulate matters(PM2.5, PM10)were obtained from Beijing Municipal Environmental Monitoring Center, and routine meteorological data (including daily mean temperature, relative humidity and wind speed)were collected from the China Meteorological Data Sharing Service System. A generalized additive model was used to analyze the association between daily average concentrations of air pollutants and the number of daily outpatient visits for dermatitis. Results In single-pollutant models, an increase of 10 μg/m3 in daily concentrations of PM2.5, PM10, SO2, and NO2 was associated with the number of outpatient visits for dermatitis with the relative risk being 1.003 1 (95% CI, 1.001 6 - 1.004 5), 1.0025 (95% CI, 1.001 4 - 1.003 7), 1.0057 (95% CI, 1.001 5 - 1.009 9)and 1.009 7 (95% CI, 1.005 6 - 1.013 8)respectively. Similarly, multipollutant models showed that air pollutant concentrations were significantly associated with the daily number of outpatient visits for dermatitis. Distributed lag models showed that the effects of PM2.5, PM10 and NO2 on daily outpatient visits for dermatitis were mainly observed on the day of exposure, while the effect of SO2 increased along with the increment of lag days. Stratification analysis showed that people aged less than 60 years and females were relatively more sensitive to particulate matters (PM2.5, PM10), while NO2 affected all groups of people at the same degree, and SO2 mainly affected people aged 35 - 60 years. Conclusion Air pollutants PM2.5, PM10, SO2 and NO2 may all increase the risk of dermatitis in Beijing area.
