Objective To establish an experimental model for the study of α-particle-induced bystander effect of DNA damage and investigate the characteristics of bystander DNA double-strand break (DSB).Methods The red fluorescence fusion protein of HsBrkl-RFP was used to mark the cytoplasm of one cell line to distinguish the irradiated target cells (HFS-RFP) and the non-irradiated bystander cells (HFS) in the co-culture cellular model.After α-particle irradiation,cellular DSB and its repair kinetics were analyzed by the immunofluorescence staining of γH2AX and laser confocal microscope observation.Results A bystander studying model was established by co-culturing human HFS-RFP cells with its partner HSF cells.After 0.1 Gy or 0.2 Gy α-particle irradiation,the similar kinetics of γH2AX foci production and abatement were observed in both irradiated HFS-RFP cells and non-irradiated bystander HFS cells,in which the highest level of γH2AX foci was detected at 1 h post-irradiation.The second peak of γH2AX foci formation appeared at 8 h post-irradiation,which possibly indicates the occurrence of secondary DSB.However,the production of secondary DSB in the bystander cells was weaker than that in the irradiated cells.Conclusions The cell co-culture model can be used for bystander effect investigation.Bystander DSB can be effectively induce by irradiation and the secondary breakage of DNA DSB in the bystander cells may relative to the consequential biochemical processing of clustered DNA damage.

Background The incidence of dry eye is increasing among young adults because of wide usage of video display terminal.But the early diagnosis of dry eye still presents challenge to medical practitioners.The accurate diagnosis and treatment of the dry eye,therefore,is a topic of high interest to researchers.Previous examination outcome of dry eye is interferred primarily due to invasive procedure.It is very important to search an examination approach.Objective This study was to use Keratograph 5M,a non-invasive ocular surface analyzer to evaluate the influence of watching video display terminal on ocular surface and tear film.Methods Eighty-one eyes of 81 health volunteers among 18-30 years were enrolled in Affiliated Eye Hospital of Nanchang University from March 1,2015 to November 10,2015 under the informed consent,including 39 males and 42 females.The subjects watched the computer for continuously 3 hours under the nature light,and ocular surface related examinations were performed and compared before and after video display terminal exposure,including non-invasive tear film break-up time (NITBUT),tear meniscus height,conjunctival hyperemia scoring,limbal congestion scoring,corneal fluorescein staining scoring,meibomian gland imaging and lipid layer analysis.Results The number of eyes with visual fatigue,dryness,pain,blurring and conjunctival congestion was significantly increased after 3-hour video display terminal exposure in comparison with before (all at P＜0.01).The initial NITBUT and mean NITBUT were (6.086± 3.701) s and (9.103 ± 4.680) s,and tear meniscus height was (0.190 ± 0.032) mm after trail,which were significantly lower than (11.445 ±4.964) s,(14.626 ±4.467) s and (0.212 ±0.040) mm of before trail,respectively;The conjunctical hyperemia scoring and limbal congestion scoring were 0.869 ±0.311 and 0.572 ±0.276 after trial,which were significantly higher than 0.780 ± 0.306 and 0.509 ± 0.266 before trail,showing significant differences before and after exposure of video display terminal (all at P＜0.01).The intraocular pressure and the eye number of different scores of corneal fluorescence staining,abnormal meibomian gland and different morphological lipid layer of tear were unchanged before and after exposure of video display terminal.Conclusions Long-term exposure of video display terminal results in significant and temporary adverse influence on tear film and ocular surface.Keratograph 5M non-invasive ocular sudace analyzer can objectively assess overall ocular surface conditions.

Objective To investigate the trend of early neural development in premature infants. Methods At the age of 12 months and 24 months, Bayley Scales of Infant Development were used to assess the mental development index (MDI) and the psychomotor development index (PDI) in preterm (corrected age) and full-term infants. Results At 12 months, there was no significant difference in corrected age PDI scores among different gestational age groups (<32 , 32–33+6 and 34–36+6 weeks) (P=0.820). The actual age MDI and PDI scores of full-term infants and premature infants in 34~36+6 weeks group were significantly higher than those of premature infants in <32 and 32-33+6 weeks groups, and the PDI score of full-term infants was significantly higher than that of premature infants in 34-36+6 weeks group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in actual age PDI scores among different birth weight groups (P=0.166). The actual age MDI and PDI of full-term infants and premature infants in birth weight≥2500 g group were significantly higher than those of premature infants in <1500 g, 1500~1999 g and 2000~2499 g groups (P<0.05). At 24 months, the actual age MDI scores of full-term infants were significantly higher than those of premature infants in different gestational age and birth weight groups (P<0.05). The actual age MDI curve of premature infants in birth weight <1500g group showed a downward trend, while the actual age PDI curve showed a significant upward trend. Conclusion The neurodevelopment of preterm infants at the corrected age of 12 and 24 months reaches the level of full-term infants.

Background Qiang minority is minority groups of China with the special habits and customs and living condition. So whether the spectrum of disease and bacteria spectrum in conjunctiva are similar with Han nationality is worth paying attention. Objective Present survey was to obtain the data about bacterial species in conjunctival sac in Qiang minority population with the age 40 years old and more and the compare with matched Han nationality population. Methods This survey study was performed as the standardized training and protocol. A total of 212 eyes of 106 individuals from Qiang minority in Beichuan county and 640 eyes of 320 subjects from Han nationality in Mianyang city received questionnaire survey and ophthalmological examination. The secretion of the inferior palpebral conjunctival sac was embrocated and inoculated on blood plate for 48-72 hours. The bacteria was separated and identified. This study was approved by the Ethic Committee of Sichuan Provicial People' s Hospital. Orally informed consent was obtained before the medical procedure. Results All the examinee finished the survey and examination with a good compliance. No significant difference was found in the demography between these two groups of population. The multiple bacterial positive rate in conjunctival sac was 59. 4% in Qiang minority and that of Han people was 66. 3% with a considerably difference between them (χ2 = 2. 27,P = 0. 13). The multiple bacterial species were simultaneously detected in 26.2% in Qiang minority population and 11.88% Han people, showing evidently difference (χ2 = 106. 40, P = 0. 00 ) . The positive rate of corynbaccterium in conjunctival sac of Qiang minority was statistically lower than that of Han people (20. 7% versus 45. 0% ,χ2 =31. 75 ,P = 0. 00) ,but there was no statistical difference in the positive rate of staphylococcus epidemics between two groups (χ2 = 1. 89 ,P = 0. 17). Conclusion The bacteria positive rate in conjunctiva sac is resemble in the population over 40 years in both the Qiang minority and Han nationality. The simple bacterial species is found in majority people in two groups of subjects. The positive rate of multiple bacterial strains coexistence is more in the Qiang minority. The bacterial strains is different between Qiang minority and Han nationality.

Background Epidemiological surveys showed that the types of bacteria are different in the conjunvical sac from different nationalities,which possibly is associated with living environment.To characterize the types of conjunctival bacteria involved is important for the prevention and treatment of infectious eye diseases.Objective The present survey was to obtain data about bacterial species in the conjunctival sac in the Tibetan minority population aged over 40 years old and compared with the matched Han nationality population.Methods The standardized training and protocol were performed before this survey.A total of 290 eyes of 145 individuals from the Tibetan minority and 346 eyes of 173 subjects from the Han nationality were enrolled in this study in Ganzi Autonomous Prefecture,who had received questionnaire surveys and ophthalmological examinations.The secretion of the inferior palpebral conjunctival sac was embrocated and inoculated and grown on blood plates for 48-72 hours.The bacteria were isolated and identified.This study was approved by the Medical Ethic Committee of the Sichuan People Hospital.Oral informed consent was obtained from the subjects.Results No significant differences were seen in the constituent ratio of the gender as well as the age between the Tibetan minority and Han nationality in this study (x2 =0.987,P=0.3202;t=1.142,P=0.254).There was a significant difference in the proportions of farmers and herdsmen between the two groups(x2 =8.557,P =0.000).The positive rate of bacterial cultivation in Tibetan individuals was 50.74％,showing a statistically significant decrease in comparison with the Han people(60.4％)(x2=6.042,P=0.014).There was no statistical difference in the multiple bacterial species between the two groups (11.0％ in Tibetan,11.6％ in Han people)(x2 =0.0271,P =0.869).The rate of staphylococcus epidemics was 26.6％ in the Tibetan minority and that of Han population was 33.2％,without a significant difference between them (x2 =3.350,P=0.060).No significant difference was seen in the ratio of corynbacterium infection between the two population(15.9％ vs.17.3％)(x2 =0.248,P =0.618).Conclusions The ratio of bacterial cultivation in Tibetans is statistically lower than that of the Han people.The types and distribution of bacteria are similar in the Tibetan and Han nationality.

Objective To explore the features of patients with acute leukemia (AL) in Hematology Department of Shenzhen Hospital affliated to Beijing University during the past six years. Methods The data of the 1056 acute leukemia dignosed in our department between 2002-2007 were collected and analyzed retrospectively. Results The male patients was predominant (male/female ratio was 1.78). The number of patients with acute myeloid leukemia(AML) was higher than that of patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) (AML/ALL ratio was 1.85). Most of the AML patients were young adult (65 %) and elderly ALL patients were very rare(1.33 %). AL cases were tended to increase gradually by year. The ratio of treatment-related AL in Shenzhen was lower than that reported literature in other countries. The major cause of the treatment-related AL were chemotherapy/radiotherapy and psoriasis treated with bimolane. Conclusion Some of the features of AL patients in China were further confirmed and some new features were also found in this study. These changes should be demonstrated by the next national epidemiology survey of leukemia.

OBJECTIVETo compare the effect of treatment of fallopian tube obstructive infertility by salpingostomy alone and in combination with TCM drugs for Bushen Huoxue (invigorating Shen and promoting blood circulation).

METHODSTo all the patients, salpingostomy was performed 3 to 7 days after menstruation and hydrotubation with Xiangdan Injection (XI) was applied once in the next menstrual cycle. Bushen Huoxue Decoction (BHD) was administrated additionally to patients in the treated group, 1 dose every day starting from the 5th day of menstrual cycle for 14 days. Three months' treatment was taken as one therapeutic course and the observation lasted for 4 courses.

RESULTSThe condition of follicular development, thickness of endometrium and level of serum estradiol in the preovulatory phase after treatment were all significantly increased in the two groups (P < 0.05 and P < 0.01); but the improvement in the treated group was significantly superior to that in the control group, showing significant difference. Moreover, the pregnancy rate was also higher in the former than in the latter (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe combined therapy of salpingostomy and TCM drugs for invigorating Shen and promoting blood circulation is an effective therapy for fallopian tube obstructive infertility, it has the effect of enhancing follicular development and increasing thickness of endometrium, and could elevate the pregnancy rate in patients.
