The progress of modality therapy has improved both survival rate and quality of life of retinoblastoma(RB) patients.However,some problems are still left and unsolved.Parts of the RB relapse after they are treated for the first time.Even more remarkable,the related individuals to the RB patients run a risk of RB.Gene diagnosis and treatment are emerging and appear to solve these problems.Some researches in developed countries and Hong Kong have successfully made progress in gene diagnosis of RB.However,the detection rate of Rb1 gene mutation is very low.Researches documented for many years that gene diagnosis for RB is extremely complex,so we should go further to achieve a goal of gene diagnosis.Gene diagnosis of RB is still an initiation in China.We should strengthen relevant study and spread this technique.

Objective To discuss fluvastatin intervention on ventricular remodeling and plasma brain natri-uretic peptide( BNP) levels in dilated cardiomyopathy( DCM) .Methods 64 cases of DCM patients were selected and randomly divided into the intervention group and control group,each group in 32 cases.Both groups were treated with conventional drug therapy, including angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors,β-blockers, diuretics, etc.In conven-tional drug treatment intervention group based on the use of fluvastatin 40mg/d.Intervention in both groups before and 6 months after the intervention,plasma BNP levels were examined and ventricular remodeling indicators,analyzed and compared using Pearson Univariate correlation of each index.Results The total efficiency of the intervention group was higher than that of the control group(87.51%vs 65.63%,χ2 =4.730,P<0.05);6 months after the interven-tion groups,plasma BNP levels were significantly decreased left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF),left ventricular end systolic diameter(LVESD),left ventricular end-diastolic diameter(LVEDD) and relative wall thickness(RWT) were significantly improvements.BNP levels and LVEF and RWT was negatively correlated( r=-0.45,-0.39,all P<0.05);Positively correlated with LVESD and LVEDD showed(r=0.35,0.44,all P<0.05),the difference was statistically significant.Conclusion Fluvastatin intervention can significantly reduce plasma BNP levels in DCM and improve ventricular remodeling.

Methods From January 2010 to October 2012,28 patients with multiple segmental lumbar degeneration who were accepted K-Rod pedicle dynamic fixation system were retrospectively reviewed. The short-term clinical effect were based on Oswestry disability index score,visual analogous scale ( VAS) ,improvement rate of low back pain,postoperative lumbar hyperextension, hyperbend X-ray film lumbar ROM value ( lumbar flexion mobility) ,average operation time, intraoperative blood loss. Results All of 28 cases were achieved 12 ~24 months follow-up,the difference of Oswestry disability index score and visual analogous scale ( VAS) between 12 months postoperatively and preoperatively were statistically significant,the improvement rate of low back pain was (87. 0 ± 2. 0)%,the average operation time was (99. 6 ± 16. 2) minutes,the average blood loss was (70. 5 ± 31. 5)mL,the average length of stay(ALOS) was (11. 2 ± 2. 6) days after sur-gery. Conclusion K-Rod pedicle dynamic fixation system in the treatment of multiple segmental lumbar degeneration can obtain satisfactory short-term clinical effect.

Objective To discuss the clinical effect and the notes of atlas lateral mass screws combined with posterior epistropheus ped-icle screws for the treatment of atlantoaxial joint instability. Methods In our hospital from January 2006 to January 2011,48 cases of atlan-toaxial joint instability accepted operation of the atlas lateral mass screws combined with epistropheus pedicle screws were analyzed. Results All patients with follow-up time 12~24 months,an average of 17 months,were achieved primary healing and atlanto-axial intervertebral osse-ous healing. Besides postoperative neck pillow area pain improved and nerve function get a degree of recovery,there was no inner fixed damage cases. Complications of operation include venous plexus hemorrhage was in 2 cases,cervical occipital pain and numbness increase in 3 cases,cere-brospinal fluid leak in 2 cases,vertebral artery extrusion occlusion after cerebral ischemic symptoms in 1 case. Conclusion Combination of atlas lateral mass screws and posterior epistropheus pedicle screws technique is one of the effective means of treatment of atlantoaxial joint instabili-ty and can obtain satisfactory clinical effect. Standard operation performance is the key to reduce or even eliminate surgical complications.

Objective To investigate the chemical constituents and activities of Linum usitatissimum L.aboveground. Meth-ods The chemical constituents were separated through silica gel,ODS,Sephadex LH-20,and semi-preparative RP-HPLC chroma-tography and identified by optical rotation and spectroscopic analysis. All of the isolates were evaluated for their inhibitory activities by the luciferase assay. Results Eight dibenzylbutyrolactone lignans were separated from L. usitatissimum and identified as(-)-hinoki-nin(1),(-)-bursehernin(2),(-)-dimethylmatairesinol(3),(-)-yatein(4),(-)-thujaplicatin trimethyl ether(5),nemerosin (6),(+)-E-7,8-dehydromatairesinol dimethyl ether(7),and E-7,8-dehydrothujaplicatin trimethyl ether(8),respectively. Conclu-sion Compounds 7 and 8 were isolated from L. usitatissimum for the first time,and NMR spectral data of compound 8 were reported for the first time. Compounds 1 and 3 showed moderate inhibitory activities on IL-6/STAT3 signaling pathway with IC50 values of 42.12 and 43.43μmol/L,respectively.

This article provides the possible mechanism of acupuncture-moxibustion repair of gastric mucosal injury from central regulation and puts it forward that the nucleus of solitary tract is the primary regulation center for the injury repair and has the effect of collecting and integrating information. In addition, it is put forward that neural regulation is a main regulatory mechanism for the injury repair and besides, endocrine, immune and humoral regulations participates in the modulation and gastric mucosal repair involves a composite regulatory mechanism in which the central nervous system, neuroendocrine-immune network and neurohumoral regulation take part.

Objective To investigate the role of skin homing T lymphocytes in the development of psoriasis vulgaris(PV). Methods Indirect immunofluorescent double staining technique was employed to study the expression of infiltrating skin homing T lymphocytes in normal, uninvolved perilesional and lesional psoriatic skin in different stages (progressing, stable or regressing) and in normal human skin. Results ①Expression of cutaneous lymphocyte associated antigen (CLA) was found in the majority of CD3+T lymphocytes in normal human skin and in lesions of PV, and CD45RO phenotype was expressed in almost all CLA+T lymphocytes. ②In psoriatic lesions, the number of CD4+CLA+and CD8+CLA+cells was higher in progressive stage than that in stable stage(P

This study aimed to identify Belamcandae Rhizoma, Iridis tectori Rhizoma and their adulterants by ITS2 sequence. All the DNA samples of Belamcandae Rhizoma, Iridis tectori Rhizoma and their adulterants were extracted. The ITS2 sequence were succesfully amplified, and purified PCR products were sequenced. All the sequences were assembled using the CondonCode Aligner V3.7.1. The Kimura 2-Parameter (K2P) genetic distances and the Neighbor-Joining (NJ) phylogenetic tree were calculated by using MEGA5.1. Results indicated that the maximum intraspecific genetic distances of Belamcandae Rhizoma was 0, and the average GC content was 52.22%;the maximum intraspecific genetic distances of Iridis tectori Rhizoma was 0.004, and the average GC content was 67.87%. The maximum K2P intraspecific genetic distance of Belamcanda chinensis, Iris tectorum were both lower than the minimum interspecific genetic distance of adulterants. Additionally, the ITS2 sequences in each of these polytypic species were separated into pairs of divergent clusters in the NJ tree. The NJ tree based on ITS2 sequence indicated that Belamcandae Rhizoma, Iridis tectori Rhizoma and their adulterants could be distinguished clearly. It could be concluded that ITS2 barcode can be used to correctly identify Belamcandae Rhizoma, Iridis tectori Rhizoma from their adulterants, and ensure their safety in use.
