Objective To investigate the application value of BIS monitoring and Ramsay score in the prevention of unplanned tracheal extubation in ICU patients.Methods 93 patients were enrolled in this study,they were divided into the experimental group(47 cases)and the control group(46 cases) using random number method.They received sedation regimens with BIS monitoring and Ramsay score or Ramsay score respectively.Occurrence rate of unplanned extubation was compared between the two groups.Results The occurrence rate of unplanned extubation was significantly lower in the experimental group than that of the control group.Conclusions BIS monitoring and Ramsay score is a suitable ways for the management of sedation of intubated patients.

Objective To investigate the ultrasonographic characteristics of angiofollicular lymph node hyperplasia (AFH). Methods The ultrasonographic and pathological characteristics in nine patients with pathologically confirmed AFH were retrospectively analyzed. Results All the 9 patients were hyaline vascular type of AFH. Ultrasonic manifestations included complete capsule, regular shape and clear boundary, internal solide low echo, mild posterior echo enhancement and without cystic degeneration, which was relative to the less incidence of necrosis and hemorrhage on pathologic findings. Calcification in the lesions were found in two patients. Color Doppler flow signals were observed in the periphery of lesions in 9 patients, and rich flow signals were observed in the center of lesions in 2 of them. Conclusion The ultrasonic manifestations of AFH has its own characteristics. The ultrasonic manifestations combined with clinical features are helpful to the differential diagnosis. The final diagnosis depends on pathologic examination.

Objective To investigate the expression and significance of CDK4 and cyclin D1 in gastric carcinoma,and to discuss their correlation with WHO histological classification,TNM stages and lymph node metastasis.Methods Forty paraffin wax specimens from patients with gastric carcinoma were collected and expression of CDK4 and cyclin D1 proteins were detected by immunohistochemistry.Results Immunohistochemistry demonstrated that the positive rates for CDK4 and cyclin D1 protein were 65% and 55%,respectively.There was positive correlation between CDK4 and cyclin D1 proteins(P0.05).Conclusion CDK4 and cyclin D1 proteins are frequently overexpressed in gastric carcinoma and there is a positive relationship between the two proteins,which may be involved in the development of gastric carcinoma.

AlM:To evaluate the efficacy of combined pranoprofen eye drops and artificial tears on the treatment of mild to moderate dry eye syndrome after trabbeculectomy.METHODS:This prospective case control study included 63 cases (63 eyes) of patients with mild to moderate dry eye syndrome after trabbeculectomy in our hospital from November 2013 to June 2013. All subjects were randomly divided into two groups. Observation group was treated with combined pranoprofen eye drops and artificial tears and control group received simple artificial tears marking the eyes at 1, 2, 4wk. The patient's symptoms, signs, BUT, S▏t, and FL were observed before treatment and 1, 2, 4wk after treatment.RESULTS: After 2wk, the symptoms of observation group were improved, there was statistically significant difference (P<0. 05). FL difference of each group was statistically significant ( P<0. 05 ); After 4wk, symptoms and signs were improved. There was statistically significant difference ( P < 0. 05 ). The BUT of the observation group and corneal FL scores of two groups showed significant differences (P<0. 05). CONCLUSlON: Artificial tears joint pranoprofen eye drops has good curative effect in the treatment of mild to moderate dry eye syndrome after trabbeculectomy.

Objective To observe the different expression of somatomedin-receptor in cell membrane of prostate epithelial cells at anoxic or normoxic condition.Methods Human prostate epithelial cells line RWPE-1 were cultured in vitro.At 4,8,12,24,48 h after cells had been seeded,the gene and protein expression of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR),fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR),transforming growth factor β1 receptor (TGF- β 1R),insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1 R) and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) in prostate epithelial cells were tested by RT-PCR and immunohistochem-istry methods,respectively.Results The expression of mRNA and protein of EGFR,FGFR,IGF-1R,TGF- β1R,VEGFR were significantly increased in anoxic and normoxic prostate epithelial cells (P < 0.01 ).At different time point,the expression of mRNA and protein of EGFR,FGFR,IGF-1R,TGF- β1R,VEGFR significantly higher in anoxic than those in normoxic prostate epithelial cells (P< 0.01 )besides 4 h EGFR mRNA,12 h EGFR protein,4 h IGF-1R mRNA,4 and 8 h IGF-1R protein,4 and 8 h TGF-β 1R mRNA,4 and 8 h TGF-β 1R protein,4 h VEGFR mRNA (P > 0.05).Conclusion Anoxic prostate epithelial cell can up-regulate the expression of somatomedin-receptor.

Fhx/P25 in silkworm, Bombyx mori, one of the main components of silk fibroin, is presumed in previous reports to be expressed exclusively in the posterior silk gland (PSG) of the animal with strict territorial and developmental specificities. On the basis of a large-scale analysis ofthe silkworm EST data, it was found that Fhx/P25 gene is transcribed not only in the posterior silk gland, but in the ovary and in other tissues of the larvae at day 3 of the fifth-instar as well and that this gene has distinct transcription start sites (TSSs) in the posterior silk gland and the ovary. The TSS in the ovary is located about 115 bp upstream sequence of that in the posterior silk gland. Subsequent RT-PCR, FQ-PCR and sequencing have verified the validity of this presumption. In addition, alternative splicing is predicted in pre-mRNA of Fhx/P25 gene and confirmed by RT-PCR. In conclusion, Fhx/P25 gene is not a gene with strictly tissue-specific transcription.Complicated regulation mechanisms may exist for its transcription and expression and it may have other functions to perform.

Objective Islet transplantation has been an effective method for diabetes mellitus. The quality of donor pancreas is important for successful islet isolation. In this study, we evaluated expanded criteria donor usability based on the warm ischemic time, fatty pancreas and perfusion injury. Methods The marginal pancreases include those from cardiac death donor, fatty pancreas and edema pancreas from perfusion injury. Islets were isolated and purified using a modified University of Minnesota method. Islet yield and purity was determined by Dithizone (DTZ) staining and microscopic examination. Islet viability was assessed by AO/EB staining, and islet function was assessed by static glucose stimulation test. Results In the cardiac death donor group, the islet quality, viability, and in vitro function were similar when the warm ischemic time within 15 min. The quality and viability was decreased when the warm ischemic time beyond 30 min, but the function remained well. With 45 min warm ischemic time, insulin release index was decreased significantly. The islet quality, viability, and in vitro function from severe obesity group and severe edema group were decreased obviously. Conclusion Donor factors play a vital role in pancreas transplant outcomes. We concluded that pancreas severe obesity, severe edema and pancreas from cardiac donors (warm ischemic time >30 min) are unsuitable for islet isolation.
