AIM: This study was designed to explore the differentially expressed genes between hypobaric hypoxic delayed preconditioning (HHDP) and normal mouse hippocampus. METHODS: HHDP was produced by treating the animals at a 7 000 m high altitude for 2.5 h/d for 3 d. At 36 h after last time decompression, total RNA was isolated from hippocampus. cDNA was synthesized and amplified by SMART PCR. cDNA libraries of differentially expressed gene between HHDP and control hippocampus were constructed. 452 clones from forward (subtracted control from preconditioning) cDNA library and 74 clones from backward (subtracted preconditioning from control) one were screened by reverse Northern hybridization. RESULTS: Screening with subtracted probes, hybridization signal of 85 gene fractions decreased and that of 217 gene fractions increased by more than 2 times in HHDP hippocampus compared with control. Screening with unsubtracted probe, hybridization signal of 44 gene fractions decreased and that of 135 gene fractions increased by more than 2 times in HHDP hippocampus compared with control. Some of the clones had been sequenced. Analysis and comparison with the data of GenBank were performed. The results showed that mouse cytochrome C oxidase subunit 1, NADH dehydrogenase subunit 1 and 6, deleted in split-hand/split-foot 1 region (DSS1) and cDNA corresponding to clone IMAGE: 5251089 of mice cDNA library were increased in hippocampus of HHDP mice. cDNA corresponding to clone IMAGE: 3593193, mus musculus adult male olfactory brain cDNA and mus musculus bladder RCB-0544 MBT-2 cDAN were decreased in hippocampus of HHDP mice. CONCLUSION: Many genes expresses differentially in hippocampus of mice during HHDP. This may be one of the molecular mechanisms of HHDP.

Objective To discuss the technology of modest isolating and enriching the intestinal epithelial stem cells. Methods Mouse intestinal epithelial cells were stained by Rhodamine 123 (Rho), sorting the Rhodamine 123 low staining cell population ( Rholow ) and Rhodamine 123 strong straining cell population ( Rhobri ) by fluorescence activated cell sorting(FACS) in flow cytometer; Detecting the musaashi-1 and p-glycoprotein 1 (p-g-p1) mRNA expression of two groups by RT-PCR; Analyzing the cell cycle and the percentage of the musashi-1 positive cells by flow cytometry. Results The intestinal epithelial cells were divided into three groups, Rhodamine 123 low staining cells( 12. 34% of total cells), Rhodamine 123 middle staining cells (45.26% of total cells) and Rhodamine 123 strong staining cells ( 41. 40% of total cells). The Rholow cell fraction and Rhobri cell fraction were isolated successfully. Both of musashi-1 and p-g-p1 mRNA were strongly expressed in Rho1ow cell fraction, and Rhobri cell fraction little expressed p-g-p1 mRNA. Most of Rho1ow cells were in G0/G1 phase, and the musashi-1 positive cells were about 10.37% of total cells in this fraction. Conclusion The intestinal epithelial stem cells can be modestly isolated and enriched by Rhodamine 123 staining.

Objective To compare the clinical effect of digital orthopedic three-dimensional visualization technology combined with image-based computer navigation and simple image-based computer navigation for percutaneous screw fixation of acetabulum anterior column fractures.Methods A retrospectivecase-control analysis was made on 19 cases undergone percutaneous screw fixation of acetabular anterior column fractures under image-based computer navigation from January 2015 to 2016 March.There were 12 males and 7 females,aged from 21 to 66 years (mean,39.3 years).AO fracture classification was A3 type in 17 cases and B1 type in 2.Based on the application of three-dimensional digital programming,the cases were assigned to two groups:group A (n =9),virtual three-dimensional model was reconstructed and the virtual screw were inserted to uninjured side by software Mimics and group B (n =10),patients were only prepared for routine preoperative preparation.Time of anterior column screw insertion,intraoperative bleeding,intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency,fracture reduction and Majeed score were compared between the two groups.Results All cases were followed up for mean 8.4 months (range,3-12 months).There were no significant differences between groups A and group B in iutraoperative bleeding [(14.1 ± 3.0) ml,(15.1 ± 2.2) ml],good to excellent rate of reduction (89％,80％),good to excellent rate of Majeed score (89％,80％) (P ＞ 0.05).Time of anterior column screw insertion [(22.4-± 3.4) min] and intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency [(24.9 ± 3.8)times] in group A were significantly less than those[(29.4 ± 4.5)min,(30.5 ± 5.8)times] in group B (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Digital orthopedic three-dimensional visualization technology is associated with shortened time of anterior column screw insertion and reduced intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency,indicating an effective adjuvant technique for percutaneous screw fixation of acetabulum anterior column under navigation.

DNA copy number variation is an important pathogenic factor of human diseases and might be involved in the pathogenesis and pathological process of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).Aims: To investigate the copy number variation of CNTNAP3 gene and its significance in Crohn''s disease (CD).Methods: A total of 101 active CD patients admitted from Jul.2009 to Dec.2010 at Renji Hospital, School of Medicine, Shanghai Jiao Tong University were enrolled.Eighty healthy subjects were served as controls.Peripheral blood or intestinal mucosa samples of CD patients were collected, and the copy number variation of CNTNAP3 gene was screened and validated by array-based comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH, n=8) and real-time PCR (n=93);expression of CNTNAP3 encoding protein was determined by ELISA (n=55).Results: A large fragment copy number amplification was revealed by aCGH at chromosome 9p13 region (including CNTNAP3 gene) in untreated CD patients.Real-time PCR confirmed that the copy number of CNTNAP3 gene was amplified in peripheral blood of CD patients, especially steroid-naive patients as compared with the normal controls (208 616.4±126 984.7 and 233 453.3±113 520.8 vs.161 750.2 ±53 940.3, P<0.05 and P<0.01).In the clinical parameters analyzed in this study, only smoking was significantly correlated with CNTNAP3 copy number amplification (P<0.05).However, there was no significant difference in plasma CNTNAP3 level between CD patients with amplified copy number and normal controls (P>0.05).Furthermore, the plasma CNTNAP3 level in CD patients with amplified copy number was not correlated with the simplified endoscopic score for CD (P>0.05).Conclusions: Copy number amplification of CNTNAP3 gene might be involved in the pathogenesis of CD in Chinese population.Glucocorticoid treatment and smoking might affect the copy number variation of CNTNAP3 gene.Plasma CNTNAP3 level cannot discriminate CD patients from healthy subjects.Conclusions of this study needs to be further demonstrated and discussed.

Objective To study the distribution of Candida infection and drug tolerance in intensive care unit(ICU). Methods A retrospective study was conducted. The critical patients admitted from January 2011 to December 2013 in ICU of the First Hospital of Jiaxing in Zhejiang Province were enrolled,and their clinical data with positive Candida culture and drug susceptibility results in specimens of sputum,urine,blood,ascites,bile, etc were collected. In the study of these 3 years in ICU,the situation of Candida infection,the distribution of positive specimen,the condition of distribution of different strains of Candida,and the Candida tolerance to antifungal drugs were analyzed. Results From 2011 to 2013,2 412 times of patients(including one patient had admitted into ICU for more than one time)were admitted into ICU in which 407 cases were of Candida infection(16.9%),and the rate of Candida infection was rising gradually in the 3 years〔2011 to 2013 Candida positive rates were 13.4%(77/573), 16.1%(146/907),19.7%(184/932)〕,the difference being statistically significant(P<0.01). In the 407 strains of Candida,166 strains(40.8%)were isolated from sputum,157(38.6%)from urine,53 strains(13.0%)ascites, 13 strains(3.1%)blood,11 strains(2.7%)bile,7 strains(1.7%)from other specimens. The strain distribution of Candida was mainly as follows:Candida albicans(174 strains),Candida glabrata(131 strains),Candida tropicalis (83 strains),Candida parapailosis(5 strains),Candida krusei(12 strains),and 2 strains of rare Candida portugal and Lipolztica. From 2011 to 2013,the highest tolerance of Candida albicans,Candida glabrata,Candida tropicalis to fluconazole,itraconazole,Fushita Yasu and other antifungal drugs was in 2013,and the lowest was in 2012,the rates of tolerance of the above 3 strains of Candida to amphotericin B being 0,to itraconazole being the highest(10.9%, 27.8%,9.6%,respectively),to Fushita Yasu the secondary(6.6%,11.0%,0,respectively)and to fluconazole the last(4.7%,7.4%,1.9%,respectively),and the rates of tolerance of Candida parapsilosis,Candida krusei,Candida Portugal,Candida lipolztica to amphotericin B,fluconazole,itraconazole,Fushita Yasu were all 0. Conclusion In ICU,the Candida infection is mainly in the respiratory tract and urinary tract,its rate of infection has a tendency of rising,and the rate of Candida tolerance to itraconazole is the highest.

Objective To investigate the behavioral problems,intellectual ability and executive functioning characteristics as well as their correlations in children with borderline intellectual functioning (BIF) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).Methods 60 children with BIF,60 children with ADHD and 60 typical developing children (TDC) participated this study.Parental report measures of behavioral problems were administrated using the Conners' Parent Symptom Questionnaire (PSQ) and Achenbach Children Behavior Checklist Scale (CBCL).All the participants performed the Chinese Revised Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (C-WISC) and a neuropsychological test named integrated visual and auditory continuous performance test (IVA-CPT).Comparison of cognitive profiles and correlation between psychological features were carried out to test the differences and commons among the groups.Results (1) Behavioral problems:the children with BIF had higher scores(3.68±2.85) in withdrawal factor than the children with ADHD (2.82±2.24) and TDC (1.03± 1.59).The children with ADHD had higher scores in conduct,impulsivity,aggressive and delinquent behavior than the children with BIF and TDC.The children with BIF/ADHD had higher scores in learning,anxiety,depression,somatic complaint and hyperactivity than the TDC.(2) Executive functioning:the children with BIF had more visual omission error (12.17± 10.48) than the children with ADHD (6.95±7.20) and TDC (2.33±2.48).The children with BIF and ADHD had lower auditory accuracy and higher visual reaction time,visual/auditory response variability,visual/auditory misrepresentation and auditory omission numbers than the TDC.These was no group difference in auditory reaction time.(3) Correlation analysis:intellectual ability was correlated with behavior problems and neurophysiological index such as conduct,learning,impulsivity,anxiety,depression factors,visual/auditory accuracy,visual reaction time and visual/auditory response variability.Conclusion BIF and ADHD are associated with poor executive functioning and increased behavior problems.The cognitive deficit may be a marker of vulnerability of poor academic and social outcomes in children with BIF and/or ADHD.

Objective:To investigate the characteristics of event-related potentials(ERPs)P300 in the development of attention cognitive function of school-age children.Methods:A total of 180 school-age children were divided into 3 groups according to their ages (7-8 years old group with 48 cases, 9-10 years old group with 44 cases and 11-12 years old group with 48 cases). All of the participants completed an Oddball task, and their behavioral data, P3a and P3b components of ERPs were analyzed by SPSS 21.0.Results:(1)The differences of hit numbers(49(47.25, 50), 50(49, 50), 50(50, 50) ), correct reaction time((533.37±56.94) ms, (486.91±61.12) ms, (411.55±51.97) ms), and Omission errors (2(1, 4), 2(1, 3), 1(0, 2) ) among the three groups were statistically significant( F/χ 2=20.635, 54.477, 13.169, all P<0.01). (2)There was a main effect of age( F=3.884, P=0.023) and an interaction effect between age and condition( F=3.314, P=0.038) on the amplitude of P3a, while the main effect of condition was not significant( F=0.111, P=0.740). The amplitude of P3a component in 11-12 years old group ((11.02±6.00)μV) was significantly larger than that of 7-8 years old group ((7.36±4.48)μV) and 9-10 years old group ((7.76±5.17)μV, both P<0.05). However, there was no significant interaction effect between age and condition on P3a latency, P3b amplitude and latency ( P>0.05). Conclusion:P3a may be a sensitive indicator of cognitive function in school-age children, and the age of 11-12 years old is a sensitive period for the development of children's attention orientation and selection ability, which may be related to the development of brain network.

Diabetic nephropathy is one of the important causes of end-stage renal disease, and kidney transplantation is the best treatment option for patients with end-stage renal disease due to diabetes (DN-ESRD). However, patients with DN-ESRD have multiple complex factors that affect glucose homeostasis. Long-term hyperglycemia leads to disordered internal environment and extensive involvement of systemic organs, increasing the risks during the perioperative period of kidney transplantation. This article reviews the perioperative management strategies for kidney transplantation in patients with DN-ESRD, discusses the perioperative risk factors, preoperative evaluation and management, intraoperative volume and internal environment management and early postoperative management, and elaborates on the latest progress in this field.
