Objective To assess the efficacy of combined vitamin D with calcium and vitamin D or cal-cium alone in rickets of vitamin D deficiency by meta-analysis method. Methods Searches were made in Cochrance Library , Pubmed, Web of science, Scirus, CNKI, Chinese Biological Medical Literature Database, (CBM),Wangfang from the establishment of the data base till March 2013. All randomized controlled trials about combined with vitamin D and calcium in rickets of vitamin D deficiency were eligible. Serum 25-( OH) ritamin D,phosphate ,ALP,calcium,PTH,phosphate,albumin ,radiographic score were chosen as evaluation in-dex to evaluate the weighted mean diffreence ( WMD) and 95% confidence interval ( CI) for continuous data. RevMan 5. 0. 2 software was used to make meta-analysis. Results 437 literatures were reviewed. Three eligible trials were used for meta-analysis. Meta-analysis showed that:(1)the increase of Serum 25-(OH)vitamin D:Combined therapy group and vitamin D group (MD= -7. 88,95%CI:-12. 24~ -3. 52);Combined therapy group and calcium group (MD= -18. 32,95%CI:-22. 61~ -14. 04). (2)the increase of serum phosphate:Combined therapy group and vitamin D group ( MD= -0. 64 ( 95%CI:-0. 86 ~ -0. 42 );Combined therapy group and calcium group MD= -0. 16 ( 95%CI:-0. 84 ~0. 51 ) . ( 3 ) the decrease of Serum ALP:Combined therapy group and vitamin D group (MD= 109. 99,95%CI:20. 40 ~199. 58);Combined therapy group and calcium group (MD=59. 89,95%CI:10. 09~109. 59 ). (4)the increase of serum calcium :Combined therapy group and vitamin D group (MD= -0. 71,95%CI:-0. 91,-0. 52);the decrease of Radiographic score:Com-bined therapy group and vitamin D group( MD=0. 68,95%CI:0. 42~ 0. 95). Except that the increase of serum phosphate between combined therapy group and calcium group had no significant difference,the rest had signifi-cant difference. Conclusion The long term efficacy in combined therapy group is much effective than vitamin D group or calcium group.

Enterovirus 71 (EV71) is a major agent of hand, foot and mouth disease that can cause a severe burden of disease to children. To identify an effective method for the control and prevention of EV71, we studied the effect of exposure to heat and ultraviolet (UV) light upon EV71 inactivation. We found that exposure to 50 degrees C could not inactivate the infectivity of EV71. However, exposure to 60 degrees C and 70 degrees C could inactivate EV71 effectively. EV71 could be inactivated after exposure to UV light at a distance between the sample and a lamp of 30 cm for 30 min or 60 min because viral genomic RNA was destroyed. However, fetal bovine serum (FBS) could attenuate the inactivation proffered by heat and UV light. Attenuation effects of FBS were correlated positively with FBS concentration. Hence, EV71 can be inactivated by exposure to heat and UV light, and our results could provide guidance on prevention of the spread of EV71.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the genetic variation of CD55 promoter and the risk of esophageal cancer. Methods: A total of 700 esophageal cancer patients recruited between April 2008 and December 2012 at Tangshan Grongren Hospital and Tangshan Renmin Hospital, and 700 frequency matched controls were randomly selected from a pool of cancer free subjects recruited from a nutritional survey. Genotypes of CD55 rs2564978 polymorphism among all subjects were conducted by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). The OR and 95%CI were calculated by non-conditional Logistic regression to evaluate the association of CD55 rs2564978T/C polymorphism with the risk of esophageal cancer. Results: The average age of cases and control was (60.04±9.19) and (59.21±9.98) years old. Compared with CD55 rs2564978 TT carriers, the individuals with CC genotype had a significantly higher risk of esophageal cancer (OR=1.94, 95%CI:1.42-2.66) . When stratified by sex, this genetic variation affected the risk of esophageal cancer among both males (OR=1.92, 95%CI:1.37-2.70) and females (OR=2.34, 95%CI:1.04-5.27). When stratified by age, the CD55 rs2564978 CC was associated with the susceptibility of developing esophageal cancer among younger individuals (OR=1.79, 95%CI:1.19-2.68) and older people (OR=2.32, 95%CI:1.41-3.83).When stratified by drinking status, CC genotype carriers increase the risk of esophageal cancer when drinking (OR=1.93, 95%CI:1.03-3.63) or not drinking (OR=1.95, 95%CI:1.36-2.80). When stratified by smoking status, CC genotype was associated with the risk of esophageal cancer among non-smokers (OR=1.79, 95%CI: 1.13-2.83), light smokers (less than 30 packs/year, OR=1.86, 95%CI:1.31-2.64) and heavy smokers (more than 30 packs/year, OR=2.67, 95%CI:1.28-5.57). Gene-environmental interaction analysis showed that CD55 rs2564978T/C polymorphism interacted with smoking status to increase the risk of esophageal cancer. Conclusion CD55 rs2564978 polymorphism effects on the risk of esophageal cancer.
