This study proposed to use Term Frequency - Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF) relative entropy as knowledge representation method between symptoms and syndrome. TF-IDF was originated from text mining. It was an important method in the automatic text categorization. TF-IDF also represented the automatic categorization idea in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome. It was based on the fact that the higher frequency of one symptom in specific syndrome, the stronger ability to distinguish this syndrome (TF); and the more wide range of one symptom in all syndrome, and the lower ability to distinguish a syndrome (IDF). It was verified with specific examples.

High-level researchers,who can efficiently enhance the research strength of the college,are often brought in at high cost.Therefore there is often the need to scientifically evaluate these researchers when introduce them.We here discuss the main indicators for the evaluation of High-level researchers.Taking into consideration of their age,research span,et al.,we propose a model for the quantitative evaluation of research capability based on research achievement and prediction of future achievement,

The nanoparticle-based electrochemical technology for early detection of cancer is an imjportant research topic in the area of biomedicine.This article introduces the concept of tumor marker and principle of electrochemical detection of the tumor marker.The applications of nanoparticles in electrochemical early detection of cancer are reviewed in detail.Finally,the prospected application of research is discussed.

BACKGROUND:How to preserve the fertility and ovarian function in patients with procreation needs has important significance and broad application prospects. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the recent studies about ovarian tissue cryopreservation, preservation and evaluation methods, and to explore the best solution for ovarian tissue freezing. METHODS:An online computer-based retrieval of PubMed database and Wanfang database between January 1994 and January 2014 was performed by the first author. The key words were ovarian tissue, ovarian tissue cryopreservation, freezing factors in English and Chinese. Final y 59 literatures on the ovarian tissue cryopreservation technique, influencing factor of cryopreservation, resuscitation, and human ovarian tissue transplantation were included. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Currently, laboratory methods of ovarian tissue cryopreservation are divided into slow-rate freezing, ultra-rapid cooling and vitrification technology. The freezing effect may vary in different patients, tissue sections, cryoprotectants species, penetration time and frozen carrier. After the recovery, the histological morphology of granulosa cells and fol icles was observed. The fol icles were counted to evaluate ovarian tissue. Freeze-thaw effects were evaluated by observing the changes of subcellular structures. The apoptotic signals were also detected. Immunohistochemical analysis was applied to detect the proliferation after recovery and apoptosis-related information. Variation in the in vitro culture reflected endocrine levels. Genetic level detection was also performed. In recent years, frozen ovarian tissue is clinical y applied for the transplantation, to restore reproductive endocrine function of the patients, or get mature germ cells, thereby preserving female fertility. However, there are stil some questions about cryopreservation of ovarian tissue, which need further study.

Objective To analyze the therapy and prognosis of palindromic ovarian carcinoma. Methods The clinical data of 40 cases of palindromic ovarian carcinoma were reviewed retrospectively. Results After the first surgery, the mean recurrent time of the patients with remained tumors smaller than 2 0 cm was (37 26?11 79) months, and that of the patients with remained tumors larger than 2 0 cm was (7 88?1 49) months. There was a significnat difference in the mean recurrent time between the two groups of the patients with different size of remained tumors(P0 05). Conclusion The recurrence of ovarian cancer was related to the size of remained tumor. Secondary operation plus chemotherapy could improve the short-term survival rate of the patients with palindromic ovarian carcinoma.

Background Essential hypertension (EH) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are frequently co- existed.Previous studies proved that EH can cause arrythmia,whereas,the arrythmia and the structure changed in hypertensive patients coexisted with T2DM are scarely reported.Objective To study the characteristics and mech- anism of arrhythmia in essential hypertension (EH) patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).Methods One hundred sixty eight patients were groupped as follows:EH group (n=65),T2DM group (n=31),EH+T2DM group (n=52),and normal group (n=20).The clinical data,echocardiographies and 24-hour dynamic eletroear- diogram were determined in all patients.Results 1)Arrhythmia incidence in EH+T2DM group was a statistically higher compared to EH group and T2DM group(P

Objective To compare the differences between antrum and corpus in endoscopic and histological diagnosis in non-ulcer dyspeptic patients.Methods 132 cases from out-patient department who had been ordered to undergo gastroendoscopy for dyspepsia were enrolled in the study.After endoscopy,different signs including redness,erosion,intramural bleeding and rugal atrophy were described.Histological diagnosis was defined according to the classification of chronic inflammation,polymorphonuclear neutrophil activity,glandular atrophy,intestinal metaplasia,helicobacter pylori and dysplasia.The differences between antrum and corpus in endoscopic and histological diagnosis were analyzed.Results Redness and erosion under endoscopy,glandular atrophy and chronic inflammation in histological diagnosis were found more frequently in antrum than in corpus.P values were less than 0.001,0.01,0.001 and equaled to 0.025 respectively.Conclusion In functional dyspeptic patients,there are differences in the endoscopic and histological findings between antrum and corpus.Redness and erosion in endoscopic diagnosis,glandular atrophy and chronic inflammation in histological diagnosis are more common in antrum when compared with that in corpus.

0.05).After exposure of U937 macrophages to 11.1 mmol/L,16.7 mmol/L and 33.3mmol/L glucose,the expression of LOX-1 protein was 1.56-,2.26-and 2.96-fold,as compared with that of 5.6 mmol/L glucose group(P

Objective To explore the effects of the meteorologic factors on air pollutants and to establish a model of relationship between the meteorologic factors and concentration of air pollutants. Method The data of SO2,NO2 and PM10 concentration in the air and the related meteorologic factors (daily average,maximum and minimum atmospheric pressure and daily atmospheric pressure difference,daily average,maximum and minimum air temperature,monthly rainfall,daily average and minimum relative humidity and wind speed) from January 2002 to December 2007 were collected. The correlation between the air pollutant levels and related meteorologic factors was analyzed by the multiple regression models with SPSS 11.5 software and multiple regression equations were established. Results Minimum relative humidity was negatively correlated with the concentration of SO2 and NO2 in atmosphere . Daily minimum air temperature was negatively correlated with the concentration of NO2 in atmosphere. Daily average relative humidity and wind speed were negatively correlated with the concentration of PM10 in atmosphere. Daily atmospheric pressure difference was positively correlated with the concentration of PM10 in atmosphere. Multiple regression equations of the concentration of SO2,NO2 and PM10 in atmosphere and meteorologic factors have statistical significances. Conclusion The meteorologic factors have some effects on the air pollution levels. By using the correlation of meteorologic factors and the concentration of air pollutions,multiple regression equations can be established.
