Organs experience three states in organ transplantation,including in-vivo state,in-vitro state,and the implanted state.The in-vivo organs can also be divided into two types by their origins,that is,from an intro-vital body or from a mortal body.Organs from an intro-vital body are not merely objects,but the vectors for personality,and therefore in such case the subject only holds the limited autonomy for his/her own organs.Organs from a mortal body are objects,but can not be regarded as the objects of autonomy.They can only be regarded as the objects of disposal right,thus the disposal of mortal organs should obey the pre-death wish of the dead,or the wish of the family members of the dead,and meanwhile obey the norms of custom and social interests.The in-vitro organs are merely objects,thus could be donated and presented,but could never be transacted.The implanted organs enjoy the same attributes and status as those from a living body.

Objective:To explore the prognostic value of N-terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP)as-sessing prognosis in patients with non ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI).Methods:Clinical and follow-up data of 96 NSTEMI inpatients from our hospital were retrospectively analyzed.According to their outcomes, they were divided into no event group [n=46,no major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE)occurred]and event group (n=50,MACE occurred).Levels of NT-proBNP,total cholesterol (TC)and low density lipoprotein choles-terol (LDL-C),left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDd),mitral early/late diastolic peak flow velocity (E/A)and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF)were measured and compared between two groups.Single-factor linear analysis and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were used to analyze relative factors of MACE incidence rate,ROC curve was used to analyze the best predictive value of NT-proBNP.Results:Compared with no event group,there were significant rise in NT-proBNP level [(3157.5±102.4)pmol/L vs.(4309.6±214.6)pmol/L]and LVEDd [(58.1±5.5)mm vs.(74.3±6.8)mm];and significant reduction in LVEF [(71.8±4.1)% vs.(49.5 ±3.9)%]and E/A [(0.84±0.18)vs.(0.62±0.12)]in event group (P <0.05 all).There were no significant difference in TC and LDL-C levels between two groups (P >0.05 both).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis in-dicated that NT-proBNP was an independent predictor for MACE (OR=1.003,P =0.009).Survival rate of those with plasma NT-proBNP≤4390 pmol/L was significantly higher than those with NT-proBNP >4390 pmol/L (OR=5.028,P =0.021).Conclusion:Plasma N-terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide can independently predict progno-sis of patients with non ST elevation myocardial infarction.

Objective To investigate T cell-mediated effects of dendritic cells(DC)transfected with kidney associated antigen G250 gene using adenovirus(Ad)as vector in the treatment of kidney cancer. Methods Peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMC)were isolated by standard FicollPaque density gradient centrifugation of heparinized blood obtained from healthy donors.After removal of the nonadherent ceils,the adherent cells were divided into gene transfer group,protein pulsed group and control group.The gene transfer group was infected with Ad/G250 virus;the protein pulsed group was added with G250 protein; the control group was added with PBS.The DCs were cultured and proliferated in vitro using recombinant human granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor and inlerleukin-4.The autologous T cells were added into the 3 DC groups(responders:dendritics,20:1).After 5 d co-culture,3 eytotoxic T lymphocyte(CTL)groups were collected.TheG250 mRNA expression was detected in transduced DCs using RT-PCR.The G250 protein translation products and cell surface marker of DCs were analyzed by flow cytometry.The specific cytolytic activities of CTL to different target cells(renal carcinoma 786-0 cell line and lung cancer A549 cell line)were assessed by MTT method. Results Ad/G250 transfected DC successfully and the G250 expression was confirmed by RT-PCR. The expression levels of CD_(80), CD_(83). HLA-DR and CD_(86) in the Ad/G250 group were higher than those in the other 2 groups. The cytotoxicity to 786-0 of T lymphocytes activated by Ad/G250 transfecting DCs(83. 4±2. 8)% was greater than those of T lymphocytes in the protein pulsed group(79. 6±2. 4)% and control group(77. 3±2. 1)%. There were no significant differences of the cytotyxicities to A549 among the 3 cytotoxic T lymphocyte groups(F=0. 373.P=0.693). Conclusions Ad-loading DCs may be useful for immunotherapeutic protocols against self-antigens for the kidney cancer.

Malignant bowel obstruction (MBO) is common in patients with bowel or gynaecological canc-er. Although surgery is the primary treatment for most patients with MBO, it should not be undertaken rou-finely in patients with poor prognosis. Nasogastric drainage is only a temporary measure. Serf-expanding me-tallic stents are optimistic in malignant obstruction of the gastric outlet and proximal small bowel.

Gastrointestinal stromal tumours(GISTs)are the most common primary mesenchymal tumours of the gastrointestinal tract and the disease is occasional and asymptomatic. Though the high rate of recur- rence after surgery, operation remains the firstline treatment of the GIST without metabasis. With the consid- eration the molecular biology of tumor, the treatment including surgery and molecular targeted therapy can im- prove the prognosis of GISTs.

Objective To research the therapeutic effect of fluticasone propionate nasal combined with cetirizine in the treatment of allergic rhinitis-sinusitis caused adult subacute cough.Methods Allergic rhinitis-sinusitis caused adult subacute cough of 56 patients were randomly divided into study group and control group with 28 cases each group by random digits table method.They were treated with cough expectorant drugs commonly brown mixture,the study group was additionally given fluticasone propionate nasal combined with cetirizine.The therapeutic effect and adverse reactions were compared.Results The total effective rate of study group was 82.1％ (23/28),which was superior to control group 53.6％ (15/28),there which was statistical difference (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion Fluticasone propionate nasal combined with cetirizine in treatment of allergic rhinitis-sinusitis caused adult subacute cough effect is good,and is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective To investigate the correlation between abnormal lipid metabolism and coronary artery lesions. Methods Two hundred and sixty seven patients were devided into the control group ( n =101) and the coronary heart disease (CHD) group ( n =166), which included single vessel lesion ( n =54), double vessel lesions ( n =68) and triple vessel lesions ( n =44) according to coronary angiography. At the same time the lipid components were examined and the ralationship between serum lipid level and coronary artery lesions were analysed. Results Compared with the control, the total cholesterol (TC), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and triglyceride (TG) level were significantly elevated while but high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) was lowered in the CHD group. The severity of coronary lesions was increased with the elevation of TC, LDL-C, apolipoproteinB (ApoB), TC/HDL-C, LDL-C/HDL-C, and the reduction of HDL-C. There were significant differences in terms of lipid level beteewn the CHD group and the control. The analysis showed that TC/HDL-C and LDL-C/HDL-C were most directly correlated with the coronary artery lesions in the CHD group. Conclusion The results suggest that the severity of coronary artery lesions correlated with abnormal lipid metabolism, and LDL-C/HDL-C, TC/HDL-C are better indicators than other lipid components.

The flavin-containing monooxygenase 3 (FMO3) is an important hepatic microsomal enzyme. Numerous mutations of FMO3 gene have been reported, and polymorphic varients of the gene have been identified. Several studies indicated that variability in the expression of FMO3 involved in some nitrogen, or sulfur-containing durg metabolism. This review summarizes the genetic polymorphism of FMO3 and its role in drug metabolism and toxicity.

Spleen-yin theory was the innovation of doctors in Ming Dynasty for Piwei theory of Dongyuan based on the inheritance of nourishing yin theory of Danxi. But because of rise of stomach yin theory, spleen yin theory was ignored gradually. This article revealed the neutralizing therapeutic conception contained in this theory, which was hoped to be applyed into medical practice and to be deepened furtherly.
