Objective: To evaluate value of application of intravascular ultrasound imaging (IVUS) in diagnosing borderline lesions in left anterior descending artery (LAD) and left main coronary artery (LM). Methods: According to results of coronary angiography (CAG) in 60 cases with coronary borderline lesions, including 20 cases in LM, 20 cases in proximal segment of LAD and 20 cases in middle segment of LAD, the diagnostic value of IVUS in coronary borderline lesion was evaluated. Results: Compared with CAG, mean diameter stenosis rate of each coronary artery [LM: (65.3l±7.81) % vs. (75.28±8.89) %,proximal segment of LAD: (66.67±8.79) % vs. (78.89±7.88) %,middle segment of LAD: (71.55±6.83) % vs. (75.3l±7.81) %, P<0.01 all] significantly increased in IVUS. The differences of detection rate of plaque calcification and plaque rupture were no significant between CAG and IVUS(>0.05). Conclusion: Different degrees of underestimation of coronary artery stenosis exist in CAG, especially in proximal segment of LAD. IVUS can be an effective complement to CAG.

Objective To explore the effect of botulinum toxin type A(BTXA)in the treatment of early hypertrophic scars(HTS).Methods BTXA was injected into and around the eady HTS,and then the modal and histological changes of the scars as well as the clinical reaction were observed in the patient.BTXA was also injected into muscle around the incision and effect on the cicatrization observed.Results Injection of BTXA could obviously alleviate ache and pruritus of eady HTS and could impel the atrophy and inteneration of eady HTS.Changes were found in paraffin-embedded tissue section by the hemetoxylin and eosin(HE)staining.Injection of BTXA into muscle around the cut could can reduce occurrence of HTS.Conclusion BTXA can help prevent the early HTS to a certain extent.The mechanism underlying this effect may be related to the reducing the tension around scars and proliferative activity,interfering with the signal transduction of small nerves,affecting the proliferation and apoptosis of fibroblasts and subsequently decreasing the collagen synthesis.

Objective To study the clinicopathologic features and differential diagnosis of deep angiomyxoma(DAM). Methods Seven cases of DAM were collected from 2000 to 2008. All the patients were examined by microscopy and immunohistochemistry. Results 6 patients with DAM were females and 1 was male, with median age of 48.5 years. Median maximum dimension was 5.9cm, with invasive growth pattern. The tumor cells of DAM were infantile, spindle or stellate,diffuse and nodular arrangement. A distinctive histologic feature of DAM was its vascularity. Non-arborizing, thin-wall, ectastic capillaries or more commonly, small thick-wall vessels were dispersed throughout the tumor. Mast cells and extravasated red blood cells were frequently found in the stroma, immunohistochemical study showed that 7 cases were positive for vimentin, desmin, ER and PR, 5 for CD34 and SMA, and negative for S-100 and CK. Conclusion DAM is a rare soft tumor that occurs principally in the vulval and vagina region of woman. Misdiagnosis has happened frequently. Immunohistochemical staining are helpful to diagnosis for DAM, but no significance to distinguish it.

Objective · To observe effect of 17β estrodial (17β E2) with different concentrations on C type natriuretic peptide (CNP), insulin like growth factor 1 (IGF1), and natriuretic peptide receptor B (NPR-B) expression and proliferation of growth plate chondrocytes of rats in vitro. Methods · Eight Wistar rats were sacrificed and their epiphyseal cartilages of the upper tibias were separated to obtain chondrocytes on the 14th day after birth. Then chondrocytes were cultured with 17β E2 in different concentrations (10-4、10-6、10-8、10-10 and 10-12 mol/L) for 48 h, while control group was cultured without 17β E2. CCK8 method, ELISA and qRT-PCR were used to analyze the proliferation of chondrocytes, the levels of CNP and IGF1 in culture medium and mRNA levels of CNP, NPR-B and IGF1, respectively. Results · 17β E2 in different concentrations affected the proliferation of growth plate chondrocytes significantly. When the concentration of 17β E2 was 10-8 mol/L, it had the strongest effect on the cell proliferation. When the concentration increased to 10-4 mol/L, the proliferation of chondrocytes was inhibited. With the increasement of 17β E2 concentration, the levels of CNP in the culture medium and the mRNA levels of CNP in the chondrocytes were significantly different. The highest levels of CNP protein and mRNA both appeared in 10-8 mol/L group, while the lowest levels both appeared in 10-4 mol/L group. IGF1 and its mRNA also reached the highest levels in 10-8 mol/L group,but the lowest concentration and mRNA level were in 10-10 mol/L group and 10-12 mol/L, respectively. Both CNP mRNA and protein levels were positive correlated with the proliferation of chondrocytes (P=0.000). Nevertheless, there was no significant correlation between the proliferation of chondrocytes and IGF1 mRNA or protein levels (P>0.05). Conclusion · 17β E2 modulates proliferation of rat growth plate chondrocytes in a dose-effect manner. It enhances proliferation at relatively low concentrations (10-10-10-8 mol/L) and inhibits proliferation at high concentration. This effect is positively related to CNP expression in chondrocytes.

Objective To establish a method of isolation, purification and identification of type Ⅱ alveolar epithelial cells (AEC- K ) from neonate piglet lungs of 1 ~ 3 days old and to investigate effects of proinflammatory cytokines on expression of growth factors (GFs). The yield, viability and purity of AEC- Ⅱ obtained using different enzyme digestion and purifying methods were compared. Methods After the first 24-hour culture of AEC- Ⅱ ,the media containing interleukin (IL)-1β,IL-6 and IGF-Ⅰ at different concentrations were used to culture AEC-Ⅱ for another 48 hours. And then the cells were counted and the expressions of insulin-like growth factor (IGF-Ⅰ ), platelet-derived growth factor ( PDGF), surfactant proteins (SP) -A and SP-B mRNA were determined by real time PCR. Results A significantly higher yield of AEC-Ⅱ was achieved by digesting the lung with 30 unit/ml elastase and 0.1 % trypsin at 37 t for 20 min, the yield was (5.33 ±0.54) × 106 after adjusted by the weight of lung and heart (P <0.01). The number of purified AEC-II obtained by immune adherence method was (38.0 ±28.0) × 106 perpiglet which was higher than by the method of percoll. The optimal phenotype maintenance time of AEC- Ⅱ was the first 24~96 hours in the primary culture. With increasing concentrations of IL-1 β and IL-6, there were decreased proliferation and expression of SP-A and IGF-Ⅰ mRNA in the cultured AEC- Ⅱ ,but SP-B mRNA expression was not affected. Both AEC-Ⅱ proliferation and expression of SP-A, SP-B mRNA decreased significantly after cultured with anti-IGF-Ⅰ. Conclusion In a new model of cultured AEC-Ⅱ from neonate piglets, IL-1β and IL-6 inhibited AEC- Ⅱ proliferation and SP-A mRNA expression through IGF-Ⅰ -dependent mechanisms.

Objective To evaluate the effect of behavioral intervention on changing knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) about AIDS among the migrant workers in railway construction sites. Methods Health education and behavioral intervention on AIDS were carried out among the migrant workers for 4 to 5 months, who were clusteredly sampled from two railway construction sites, in the forms of mini-media, peer education and so on. Questionnaire survey was conducted among them before and after the intervention. Results The results showed that the knowledge awareness of the migrant workers on the transmission routes, preventions of AIDS and self-protection consciousness increased significantly by comparing the indexes of 943 pre-intervention with those of 671 post-intervention workers. After intervention procedures, the rate of those workers who would adopt negative attitudes towards the HIV infected persons because of fear and discrimination was decreased from 9.8% and 10.5% to 6.3% and 3.5% (both P
