Objective:The protein of missing in metastasis (MIM), a novel discovered actin-binding scaffold protein, is involved in actin cytoskeleton rearrangements, signal transduction and transcriptional activation, and has close association with tumor growth, invasion, and metastasis. Recently, much focus has been placed on the role of MIM performed in tumor progression. In recent years, more and more attention is focused on its action mechanism in various kinds of tumors, which has a wide foreground of investigation. In this paper, we make a comprehensive review of the association of MIM with cancer development, in order to provide the theoretical basis and new strategies for application of MIM proteins in cancer diagnosis and treatment.

The development of orthopedic fixing materials is a most basic and active aspect in orthopedic injury treatment.Their invention and application of early manual splints,gypsum bangs,hot-shaped splints,polymeric bangs and so on,greatly promoted orthopedic fixing performance and varied the strategies of orthopedic injury treatment.By repeated experiments and clinical trials,we developed a new orthopedic fixing material using polymeric materials.Convenient to operate,easy to remove,auto-shaped,X ray transmittable,water proof and durable,it not only satisfies the needs of fixing different parts of the body,but also remedies the defects of earlier fixing materials,and therefore has gained an extensive application as the best fixing material for the treatment of clinical and battle-field bone fractures.Further studies on it will surely better its properties,reduce its cost and lead it to a wider application.

Objective To investigate the accuracy of transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) for diagnosing left cardiac valve calcification in elderly patients.Methods In this retrospective study,410 elderly patients died in Beijing Hospital from 1982 to 2015 were collected.They all had full pathological cardiac valve examination data in the autopsy examination and full mortem TTE data.They were classified into three groups according to the year of death:group 1982-1995,group 1996-2005 and group 2006-2015,as well as into three groups according to the age of death:group 60-75,group76-90 and group 91-106.Results The sensitivity,specificity,diagnostic coincidence rate,positive likelihood ratio (PLR),negative likelihood ratio (NLR),positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value(NPV) of TTE versus autopsy pathological findings as golden standard for diagnosing left cardiac valve calcification were 88.6％,28.2％,43.7％,1.234,0.405,0.298 and 0.878.Compared with group 1982-1995,the group 1996-2005 and group 2006-2015 showed the sensitivity and PPV of TTE versus golden standard autopsy findings for diagnosing left cardiac valve calcification in the elderly were increased while the specificity,PLR,NLR and NPV were decreased.Compared with group 60-75,the group 76-90 and group 91-106 showed that the sensitivity and PPV of TTE versus golden standard autopsy findings for diagnosing left cardiac valve calcification were increased,while the specificity and diagnostic coincidence rate were decreased.The sensitivity,specificity,diagnostic coincidence rate,PLR,NLR,PPV,NPV of TTE versus golden standard autopsy findings for the diagnosis of aortic valve calcification and mitral valve calcification in the elderly were 88.2％ and 44.0％,30.8％ and 75.3％,42.7％ and 71.5％,1.275 and 1.780,0.382 and 0.744,0.250 and 0.198,0.909 and 0.906,respectively.Conclusions TTE provides high sensitivity for diagnosing left cardiac valve calcification in the elderly,especially for diagnosing the aortic valve calcification,but the specificity is not satisfactory.

A rapid and convenient ultra high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS / MS) method for analysis of ribavirin and its two main kinds of metabolites, 1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxamide (TCONH2 ) and 1-β-D-ribofuranosyl-1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxylic acid (RTCOOH), in fresh eggs has been developed and validated. The sample was extracted with acetonitrile water (9 ∶ 1, V/ V), added N-hexane to move liposoluble substances, after centrifugation, the upper solvent was cleaned-up by C18 and GCB, then determined by UPLC-MS / MS coupled with Agilent ZORBAX SB-Aq column (100 mm×3. 0 mm, 1. 8 μm). Over the concentration range of 2. 0-200. 0 μg / L (0. 5-200. 0 μg / L and 5. 0-200. 0 μg / L) for ribavirin (TCONH2 and RTCOOH) in fresh egg matrix, the correlation coefficients (R2 ) of the calibration curves were above 0. 99, and the limits of detection (LODs) were 0. 54 μg / L (0. 09 and 1. 54 μg / L). The limits of quantitation (LOQs) were 1. 79, 0. 31 and 5. 13 μg / L, respectively. At three spiked concentration levels of 5. 0, 10. 0 and 50. 0 μg / L, the recoveries of ribavirin and RTCOOH ranged from 96. 1% to 99. 6%and 42. 9% to 58. 3% . And at three spiked concentration levels of 0. 5, 2. 0 and 5. 0 μg / L, the recoveries of TCONH2 ranged from 75. 9% to 106. 7% . The results of the determination in various real samples showed that the method is simple, accurate, rapid and suitable determination of ribavirin and its two main kinds of metabolites in fresh eggs.
