Biliary atresia(BA) is a destructive inflammatory obliterative cholangiopathy of neonates affecting both intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile ducts.BA is more common in east Asia.Genetic susceptibility,viral infections,and immune dysregulation may be related to BA,but immune dysregulation may play a key hole in the pathogenesis of BA.A current view of the pathogenesis of BA is that it may involve both a primary perinatal hepatobiliary viral infection and a secondary generation of an autoimmune-mediated bile duct epithelial injury.The etiology of BA is unknown,but there is evidence for the involvement of immunologic dysregulation mechanisms,which will be discussed in this review.

Anorexia of aging is one of the common clinical geriatric syndrome in clinic, characterized by the persistent and significant decreasing of appetite and/or by reducing a food intake in the elderly, which can cause various adverse consequences and increase the morbidity and mortality.However, clinicians have insufficient understanding of anorexia in the elderly, and often regard the anorexia of aging as the normal phenomenon of aging and might ignore it.This article reviews the domestic and foreign relevant literatures on anorexia of aging.

Objective To develop a rapid method based on ARMS, named four primers allele-specific PCR(4p-AS PCR), to detect the most common non-deletional ?-thalassemia mutation Hb Constant Spring(Hb CS) by PCR technique. Methods The 4p-ASPCR was used to detect the Hb CS mutation of ?-thalassemia in 38 DNA samples of Hb H disease patients and using PCR-RE and DNA sequencing to confirm the results. Results Among the 38 Hb H disease patients 15 cases was revealed to carry Hb CS, 16 cases were deletional Hb H, and 7 cases need to be defined.Conclusion A simple, rapid and reliable method, named 4P-ASPCR, to detect Hb CS mutation have been developed. It is also may be useful in screen other point mutations such as Hb Quong Sze.

The colorimetric method has been well developed to detect the sensitivity of most antiproliferative drugs with the advantages of objectivity and accuracy. Many parameters including the dosage and the absorbance of crystalline violet, the extraction time of the solvent, plate effect and marginal effect were investigated, then the optimized method was applied further to measure the biological activity during the refolding of recombinant human IFN-? inclusion bodies.

Objective:Tumor common antigen of an extract of plant and applying in early stage diagnosis for tumor were studied.Methods:Tumor cells and lymphocytes proliferate responses were determined by 3H-TdR intervening.Fresh tumor tissue from human transplant to mice,the survival rate of transplanted tumor was observed.DNA content of tumor cells was measured by flowcytometery.The chemical nature was analyzed by chromatography and measured by ultraviolet-spectrometer.Results:The extract of plant markedly stimulated the lymphocytes from tumor patients and atypical hyperplasia patient to proliferate,but failed to health persons(P

In the future,anti-ship missiles(ASM) will be major weapons in the sea war.It is very important to handle the profile of the casualties aboard warships attacked by ASM for development of naval health service.The statistical result shows there is a greater chance of casualties but less chance of warships being sunken by ASM.Besides,medical staffs should pay more attention to the first aid for victims due to blast,burn,smoke inhalation and penetration while the danger of the sea water immersion should not be ignored.

Objective To evaluate the effect of isoflurane post-conditioningon the expression of pro apoptotic proteins in the conical neurons exposed to oxygen-glucose deprivation and restoration (OGD/R) in rats.Methods Primary cortical neurons isolated from male Sprague-Dawley rats (within 24h after birth),were cultured in vitro and inoculated in 6-well culture plate (2 ml/well) at a density of 1 × 106/ml.The cells were divided into 3 groups (n =12 each) using a random number table:control group(group C),OGD/R group,and isoflurane post-conditioning group (Ⅰ group).In OGD/R group,the cells were incubated in glucose-free BBS aerated with 95 ％ N2 for 30 min followed by restoration of 2-glucose supply for 1 h.At 24 h of incubation,the cells were collected for detection of neuronal apoptosis (.using Hoechst/PI staining),caspase-3 expression (by Western blot),expression of Bid,Bim and Puma mRNA (by PCR),and expression of Bid,Bim and Puma (by Western blot).Apoptosis rate was calculated.Results Compared with S group,the apoptosis rate was significantly increased,and the expression of caspase-3 and Bid,Bim and Puma mRNA and protein was upregulated in OGD/R group.The apoptosis rate and expression of caspase-3 and Bid,Bim and Puma mRNA and protein were significantly lower in Ⅰ group than in OGD/R group.Conclusion Isofluranepost-conditioning inhibits apoptosis in the cortical neurons exposed to OGD/R through down-regulating pm-apoptotic proteins in rats.

To meet the needs of serving the general strategy,the central work and hospital development,the CCP committee of Beijing Municipal Administration of Hospitals has innovated and improved the leadership of the CCP building,and promoted the model at public hospitals by formulating and announcing the Indicators System for Municipal Public Hospitals ’ Party Building Performance Evaluation.This implementation aims to to guide,regulate and encourage the CCP work,which proves effective enhancement of the CCP building in municipal hospitals in terms of quality,efficiency,and effectiveness.

Malignant lymphoma of the maxillary sinus is very rare. A case of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) of the left maxillary sinus is presented here. A 59-year-old man came to our hospital complaining of swelling under the left lower eyelid without any other symptoms. Imaging examination including CT and MRI detected a tumor in the left maxillary sinus. The tumor was invasive into left orbit. The biopsy revealed a diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. The tumor cells were positive to CD20, CD79a, CD45. In conclusion, a very rare case of DLBCL of the maxillary sinus was reported.
