Objective To detect the mutations in RECQL4 gene in a Chinese patient with Rothmund- Thomson syndrome (RTS). Methods Blood samples were collected from a sporadic patient with RTS, his unaffected parents and 30 unrelated population-matched controls. DNA was extracted, and all the coding sequences of RECQL4 gene were amplified by PCR. Direct sequencing was performed with the amplicons to detect the possible mutations in these subjects. Results Two mutations, i.e., IVS11-1G > A and 3401 A >T, which resulted in a premature termination codon at amino acid 560, were found in the RECQL4 gene of the patient. His father was heterozygous for IVS11-1G > A, and his mother for 3401 A>T. Meanwhile, neither of the two mutations were observed in 30 unrelated normal control individuals. Conclusion Two mutations, including IVS11-1G>A and 3401 A>T are present in the RECQL4 gene of the sporadic patient with RTS.

This paper introduces the perioperative nursing of 83 sialolithiasis patients undergoing sialolithectomy by sialoendoscope. The key points of successful nursing care were careful preoperative psychological nursing and equipment preparation, correct and skilled intraoperative cooperation, and early postoperative health instruction. As a result, all the patients underwent the surgery succesfully and recovered well except 3 cases who needed gland removal later.

Objective To study the correlation between serum human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) DNA and peripheral T cell subsets as well as islet function in type 1 diabetic patients.Methods HCMV DNA levels in sera from 20 type 1 diabetic patients and 40 controls were measured by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR),then the comparison and correlation analysis were made between HCMV DNA and T cell subsets,blood glucose (BG),insulin (Ins) and C peptide (C P).Results The positive rate and levels of HCMV DNA in type 1 diabetic patients were significantly higher than those of controls respectively.The percentage of CD 8 and the levels of fasting BG and BG 2 hours after meal in type 1 diabetic patients with positive HCMV DNA were by far higher than those in controls,while the percentage of CD 4,the ratio of CD 4/CD 8,the levels of fasting Ins,Ins and C P 2 hours after meal were significantly lower than those of controls.There existed the linear positive correlation between HCMV DNA and CD 8 or fasting BG,negative correlation between HCMV DNA and CD 4/CD 8,fasting Ins or fasting C P.Differences were not so significant between type 1 diabetic patients with negative HCMV DNA and controls compared with those between patients with positive HCMV DNA and controls.Conclusion HCMV infection is associated with dysfunction of islet and T cell mediated immunity in type 1 diabetic patients.

OBJECTIVE:To predict the shelf life of compound sodium citrate injection by initial average rate stability test. METHODS: The initial average rate stability test was performed at 7 different temperatures to investigate the relationship between the initial average rate (V0) of the glucose degradation reaction and Kelvin's temperature (1/T), and the activation energy of reaction, the drug reaction velocity constant and shelf life were computed as well. RESULTS: The regression equation was lgV0=18.15—6 774.6?1/T(r=—0.937 5), the reaction activation energy was 31.0Kcal?mol-1, the drug reaction velocity constant at 20℃ was 1.1?10-5h-1, and the shelf life was 1.09 years. CONCLUSION: The method is simple and it can accurately predicate the shelf life of compound sodium citrate injection.

OBJECTIVE:To study the situation of anemia in newly diagnosed ovarian cancer and breast cancer patients treated with 7 kinds of chemotherapy regimes. METHODS:110 cases of newly diagnosed ovarian cancer and breast cancer from May 2008 to Feb. 2009 in People’s Hospital of Peking University were analyzed retrospectively. The level of hemoglobin in patients treated with different chemotherapy regimes were evaluated and analyzed with SPSS software. RESULTS:Of total 110 patients, class Ⅰ anemia occurred 194 times and class Ⅱ anemia occurred 55 times. High incidence of anemia appeared in chemotherapy regimes with platinum as base. Low incidence of anemia occurred in TA chemotherapy regime. The older patient is,the more easily anemia occurred. CONCLUSION:The incidence of anemia after chemotherapy is related to type of cancer,chemotherapy regime, chemotherapy cycle and patient’s age.

Objective To reinvestigate the high performance thin-layer chromatography(HPTLC)method for solving the problem of difficulty in separating between ginsenoside-Re and notoginsenoside-R1,and to establish a specific,fast and economic routine identification and quality assessment method for Notoginseng(San Qi).Methods Chromatographic conditions were as follows:stationary phase-precoated HPTLC silica gel 60 plate(20? 10 cm,Merck);developing solvent system:CH2Cl2-absolute ethanol-water(70 ∶ 45 ∶ 6.5);relative humidity:lower than 18 % ;temperature:10～ 25 ℃ ;derivative reagent:10 % H2SO4 ethanolic solution,heating at 105 ℃ for 3 min and observing the fluorescent chromatogram in a UV cabinet at 366 nm.Results The HPTLC fingerprint consisted of 10 fluorescent bands(peaks in the profile)including ginsenoside-Rb1,Rd,Re,Rg1 and notoginsenoside-R1,which presented the relative consistent ratio of the main peaks generated from the image of the chemical components distribution pattern through scanning by TLC scanner or computer-aided similarity evaluation(CASE)software.Conclusion Notoginsenoside-R1,the specific component of San Qi,is spotlighted in the HPTLC image and separated from ginenoside-Re,which indicates HPTLC method being simple,fast,and effective.The HPTLC fingerprints of 24 batches of samples from different locations(Wenshan of Yunnan,Xinyi of Guangdong)and markets,with different grades show the high chemical stabilities of this Dammarane-type saponins distribution.

Objective:To observe therapeutic effect of lyophilized recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide (Lrh-BNP)on stress cardiomyopathy (SCM)complicated acute bump failure.Methods:A total of 23 patients with SCM complicated acute bump failure were randomly divided into routine treatment group (n=10,received routine treatment)and Lrh-BNP group (n=13,received Lrh-BNP based on routine treatment).Clinical symptoms and signs,cardiac function :left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF),stroke volume (SV),cardiac index (CI),peak early diastolic velocity/peak late diastolic velocity (E/A)assessed by echocardiography before and after treatment, and total effective rate were compared between two group.Results:Total effective rate of Lrh-BNP group was sig- nificantly higher than that of routine treatment group (92.3% vs.80.0% ,P<0.05).There were no significant difference in cardiac function indexes between two groups before treatment (P>0.05 all);after treatment,com- pared with routine treatment group,there were significant rise in LVEF [(50.2±16.3)% vs.(59.4±14.1)%],SV [(39.5±10.4)ml vs.(48.3±12.5)ml],CI [(3.7±1.1)L min-1 m-2 vs.(4.6±1.4)L min-1 m-2 ]and E/A [(1.0±0.5)vs.(1.3±0.7)]in Lrh-BNP group,P<0.05 all.Conclusion:Lrh-BNP possesses significant thera- peutic effect on stress cardiomyopathy complicated acute left heart failure.

AIM:To investigate the changes of autophagy of macrophages after phagocytizing dust particles and explore the mechanisms of dust particle-induced autophagy of the cells.METHODS:The bronchopulmonary lymph nodes were collected from patients with lung operation.The paraffin sections were prepared and then stained with Wilder's method.The tissue structures were viewed.Peritoneal macrophages were harvested from rats and then treated with carbon particles.Influences of carbon particles in autophagic activities of macrophages were examined.The ultrathin sections of the lymph nodes and the cells phagocytized carbon particles were prepared.The structures and distribution of phagosomes,autophagosomes and lysosomes were viewed.The apoptotic cells in the dust cells of the lymph nodes and the cells having phagocytized carbon particles were examined using transmission electron microscope and TUNEL staining.RESULTS:In adult lymph nodes,dust particles were deposited significantly in macrophages,collagen fibres and density of microvessels increased.There were autophagosome precursors,autophagosomes,autophagolysosomes as well as phagosomes in the dust cells and the cells phagocytized carbon particles.In autophagosomes,mitochondrion,dust particle or carbon particle were usually observed.There were positive cells by TUNEL staining in the dust cells and the cells phagocytized carbon particles.Nuclear condensation or apoptotic body in the apoptotic cells were observed under transmission electron microscope.CONCLUSION:Deposition of dust particles induces enhancement of autophagic activities and apoptosis of macrophages.Autophagy plays an important role in cleaning dust particles and the injured mitochondria.
