Sonodynamic therapy in many treatment methods of tumors, is a relatively new approach. Sonodynamic therapy as a treatment method is developed on the basis of photodynamic therapy. Compared to the lightwave, the ability to penetrate mammalian tissue of ultrasound is stronger. So sonodynamic therapy is a more promising therapeutic area. Many scholars have explored the clinical applications of sonodynamic therapy, and progress has been made in many areas. Because the female genitalia is connected the outside of body, it is more conducive that Sonodynamic therapy play a partial role. Sonodynamic therapy has some progress in the application of gynecology, and we hope it would have more progress in the treatment of endometrial disease.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the apoptosis regulation on hepatoma cells by HBx between genotype B and C.

METHODSGenotype B and C HBx gene fragments were amplified and inserted into green fluorescent protein (GFP) eukaryotic expression vector pEGFP-C1 to construct recombinant pGFP-XB and pGFP-XC. The pEGFP-C1, pGFP-XB and pGFP-XC were introduced into Bel-7402 cells by Fugene HD to obtain Bel-7402 cells expressing GFP. The transcription and expression of HBx gene were demonstrated by RT-PCR and Western Blot analysis. Bel-7402, Bel-7402/GFP, Bel-7402/GFP-XB, Bel-7402/GFP-XC cells were treated with adriamycin (2.5 microg/ml), and the apoptosis of the cells was determined by trypan blue exclusion, and flow cytometry analysis.

RESULTSRT-PCR and Western Blot analysis showed that HBx genes of genotypes B and C were transcribed and expressed in Bel-7402/GFP-XB, Bel-7402/GFP-XC cells. Trypan blue exclusion showed adriamycin induced time-dependent cell death in Bel-7402, Bel-7402/GFP cells while no significant cell death was observed in Bel-7402/GFP-XB, Bel-7402/GFP-XC cells. Flow cytometry analysis indicated that no significant differences of apoptosis rates of Bel-7402/GFP-XB (3.87%) and of Bel7402/GFP-XC (4.01%) were observed (P > 0.05), moreover, no significant differences of Bel-7402/ GFP-XB (3.87%), Be17402/GFP-XC (4.01%) and of the untreated cells. Apoptosis rates in Bel-7402/GFP-XB (3.87%), Bel-7402/GFP-XC (4.01%) cells were significantly lower than those in Bel-7402 (27.05%) and Bel-7402/GFP (29.14%) cells at 48 hours after the adriamycin treatment (P < 0.01).

CONCLUSIONSBel-7402 cell lines expressing GFP, GFP-XB and GFP-XC fusion proteins were successfully established. HBV X protein blocks adriamycin-induced apoptosis of Bel-7402 cells. There is no difference between HBx of genotype B and C in inhibiting apoptosis induced by adriamycin.

Formation of dermal collagen fiber is a complicated and sequential process with the progressive assembly of collagen. Collagen monomers form stepped and orderly protofibrils through longitudinal displacement. Subsequently, protofibrils or protofibrils and collagen are bonded by covalent bonds to form orderly lamellar structure of collagen fibers. Then collagen fibers are tightly wound into coarse collagen fiber bundles by covalent crosslinking. Decorin is a multifunctional small leucine-rich proteoglycan. It can prevent the aggregation of protofibrils by binding to the specific site of collagen with its core protein, and adjusting the spacing between the protofibrils with its glycosaminoglycan chain. Thus, by effecting the formation of collagen fibers with regulation of collagen assembly, decorin may help prevent scar formation and even promote regeneration.

OBJECTIVEThis study aimed to investigate the duration of gingival healing after the stage II surgery of dental implantation for periodontitis patients and to provide clinical guidelines for implant restoration.

METHODSTwenty-nine periodontitis patients who had implantation surgery and achieved osseointegration were operated with stage II surgery (a total of 60 pieces of implants). The height of buccal gingival of each implant was measured twice after the stage II surgery. All implants were measured at the lowest point ofbuccal gingival after one week. The implants were randomly divided into four groups according to the schedule of the next test time: group one at one week from the initial test point, group two at two weeks, group three at three weeks, and group four at four weeks. Each group includes 15 pieces of implants. The amount of the buccal gingival change in each group between the second and first tests was determined, and the data were analyzed statistically.

RESULTSThe amount of gingival change of groups one, two, three, and four was (-0.25 +/- 0.66), (-0.04 +/- 0.52), (-0.70 +/- 0.77), and (-0.74 +/- 1.09) mm, respectively. No significant difference was observed between groups one and two in terms of the amount of gingival changes (P > 0.05). However, a significant difference was found between groups two and three (P < 0.05), and the amount of gingival recession was 0.66 mm. No significant difference was found between groups three and four (P > 0.05), and the gingival achieved stability.

CONCLUSIONThe gingival recession achieves stability at the fourth week (after 28 d) after stage II surgery. At this time, the implant can be restored, and the abutment can be selected according to the amount of gingival change of the periodontitis patient.

Objective To investigate the effect of EGB on SOD, MDA of ventilator-induced lung injury in rats and its possible mechanisms. Methods Thirty male SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: control group (C group), high tidal ventilation group (H group) and EGB group (E group). The setting mechanical ventilation was VT=30 mL/kg, RR=40/min, I/E=1/3, PEEP=0 cmH2 O and FiO2=21%. The broncho-alveolar lavage fluid (BLAF) and serum were obtained for determination of the levels of SOD and MDA at the end of 4 h mechanical ventilation. The Lungs were removed, and the wet-to-dry weight ratio (W/D) and pulmonary pathologic changes were measured. Results As compared with C group, W/D and the levels of MDA were significantly increased in H group, but the levels of SOD were reduced in H group. As compared with H group, W/D and the levels of MDA were significantly decreased in E group, but the levels of SOD were increased in E group. Pulmonary pathologic changes were alleviated in E group comparing with H group. Conclusion EGB injection may have a protective role against hyperoxia and induced pulmonary damage in rats.

Objective To explore the diagnostic value of diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) and CT perfusion imaging (CTPI) in diagnosis of liver fibrosis. Methods Fifty-seven hepatic fibrosis patients and 23 normal controls received DWI (b=500 s/mm2), ADC value of different fibrosis stages was measured, while 35 patients and all 23 normal controls received CTPI. The parameters of CTPI including blood flow (BF), blood volume (BV), mean transit time (MTT), hepatic arterial fraction (HAF) and permeability surface (PS) were measured. Analysis of variances was performed to compare the difference among the groups in both examinations. ROC curve was used to analyze the sensitivity and specificity of DWI and CTPI. Results The difference of ADC value between control group and S1 group was not significant, but between control group and S2, S3, S4 group and among group S2, group S3, group S4 was significant. In the parameters of CTPI, only the difference of HAF between control group and S3-S4 group was significant. Sensitivity and specificity of DWI and CTPI was 78.90%, 82.60% and 66.67%, 73.91%, respectively. Conclusion DWI is superior to CTPI for early diagnosis and degrading of liver fibrosis.

Objectives To investigate the association between health belief and medication adherence in hypertensive patients.Methods A total of 232 hypertensive patients who visited Outpatient Department of Huashan Hospital between October 2013 and May 2014 were recruited in this cross-section study.The degree of medication adherence was measured with Morisky scale and health belief was evaluated with questionnaires of Health Belief Model (HBM).Results Of the 232 participants,61 (26.3％),51 (22.0％) and 120 (51.7％) showed low,medium and high medication adherence in Morisky scale,respectively.Logistic analysis showed that the perceived susceptibility (P ＜ 0.001),and cues to action (P =0.004) were positively correlated,and perceived barriers (P ＜ 0.001) was negatively correlated with medication adherence of patients.Conclusion Effective interventions to improve antihypertensive medication adherence should increase perceived susceptibility,cues to action,and reduce the barriers to medication adherence of patients.
