Objective To explore the guidance value of cerebrospinal fluid(CSF)and serum procalcitonin(PCT)in the ventricular catheter indwelling time of intracranial pressure monitoring(ICP).Methods Fifty-eight cases patients with moderate and severe craniocerebral trauma who were given ICP ventricular catheter and external ventricular drainage(EVD)were selected,5 ml CSF and 2 ml venous blood were collected at operation,1st,7th,14th d after operation.The change of CSF and serum PCT and WBC levels were compared among different time,the correlation among each indicators and diagnosis value for intracranial infection were analyzed.Results The level of CSF and serum PCT and WBC increased with the lengthen of ventricular catheter indwelling time(CSF PCT:(0.09±0.02)μg/L of operation,(1.17±0.25)μg/L of 14 d after the operation;CSF WBC:(24.33±12.75)×106/L of operation,(431.52±140.26)×106/L of 14 d after the operation;serum PCT:(0.16±0.05)μg/L of operation,(4.57±1.41)μg/L of 14 d after the operation;serum WBC:(4.14±0.46)×106/L of operation,(14.24±3.05)×106/L of 14 d after the operation;P＜0.05).The CSF PCT was positively correlated with CSF WBC and serum PCT(r=0.614,0.711,P＜0.05).The diagnostic sensitivity of CSF and serum PCT for prognosis of intracranial infection were 95.2％,81.0％,the specificity were 94.6％,78.4％,the specificity of CSF PCT was significantly higher than that of serum PCT(P=0.041).Conclusion CSF and serum PCT has high early diagnosis value for intracranial infection in patients with ICP ventricular catheter,which can contribute to guide the reasonable timing of tube drawing,brings out the best of ICP and cerebrospinal fluid drainage,improve the level of treatment in patients with traumatic brain injury.

2-Dimensional gel electrophoresis and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) were used to screen differentially expressed serum proteins in Uyghur patients with hyperuricemia and control subjects.Western blot was used to validate differential proteins.Gel-image analysis revealed that there were 11 differential protein spots.A total of 4 differential protein spots were successfully identified by MALDI-TOF-MS.Complement 3,complement 4,haptoglobin,and apolipoprotein Al levels were up-regulated in patients as compared with controls.The result of complement 3 expression was validated by Western blot,which is accordant with that of proteomics.

In order to investigate the comprehensive quality differences of the seeds harvested in different growing time, and offer theoretical guide for the optimization of seeds' production technology, we analyzed the apparent size, 1 000-grain weight, water absorbency, germination indexes, postharvest embryo rate change, relatively contents of coumarins and the yield of single plant of its seeds of different harvesting time, and compared their comprehensive quality by Topsis analysis. The results showed that there existed obvious differences in yield and quality between seeds of 3 harvesting times. While the harvesting time postponed, the yield of single plant raised, and the shrunken seeds rate decreased, the quality of seedlings increased, while the contents of coumarins showed a steady increase, and the germination rate decreased. The comprehensive quality of the seeds harvested in the black ripe time rank the first place, followed by the brown ripe time and the yellow ripe time. As the harvesting time delays, the seeds' comprehensive quality increases, therefore, we could put off the seeds' harvesting time properly for the high efficient seed production.
