Objective To investigate the expression of β-catenin and PCNA,and its relationship with clinical parameters and prognosis.Methods Tissue microarray technology and immunohistochemical method were used to detect the expression of β-catenin and PCNA in gastric carcinoma and normal tissue collected from January 2000 to December 2006.Data were analyzed by SPSS 19.0.Results The percentage of expression of β-catenin and PCNA in gastric carcinoma is 96.7%,99.2%,respectively,and higher than the normal gastric tissue (x2 =41.082,P =0;x2 =97.692,P =0).ROC curve was used to find that PCNA was better than β-catenin to discriminate gastric carcinoma from normal gastric tissue in sensitivity,specificity,coincidence rate(84.4%,87.5%,84.6%).The expression of β-catenin is related to lymph node metastasis in gastric cancer (x2 =6.107,P =0.04).The expression of PCNA is related to pathological type (x2 =9.71,P =0.02).The expression of β-catenin and PCNA in gastric carcinoma were positively correlated (r =0.24,P =0.005).Multivariate analysis showed that TNM staging and both positive β-catenin and PCNA were independent factors impacting on the overall survival rate of patient with gastric cancer.Conclusions The expression of β-catenin and PCNA in gastric carcinoma is signifrcandy high.PCNA is more important than β-catenin in discriminating gastric carcinoma from normal gastric tissue.Combined detection of the two kinds of protein have some clinical significance in predicting the prognosis of patients with early gastric cancer.

Objective To evaluate the effects of astragalus on liver injury and TGF-β1 mRNA expression in immature rats with obstructive jaundice(OJ).Methods Forty immature male Wistar rats were randomly divided into a control,a shamoperation,an OJ,and an OJ+A groups.Wistar rats in the OJ and OJ+A group were subjectedto common bile duct ligation(CBDL),while the sham group had the bile duct mobilized but not tied.The control,sham,and OJ groups were giyen 0.5ml of normal saline by intrapedtoneal injection daily.In the OJ+A group,250mg/100g body weight of astragalus injection was applied intraperitoneally daily from day 1 to 7 of the study.All animals were sacrificed on postoperative day 8.Liver tissue and peripheral blood were colleered.Serum Alanine aminotransferase(ALT),Aspartate aminotransferase(AST),and total cholic acid(TCA)level were detected.Hepatic morphological findings were observed by light microscopy.TGF-β1 mRNA were extracted from liver and measured by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).Data were analyzed using chi-square test and student's test(-x±s),P<0.05 was considered statistical significance.Results ①Serum AST,ALT,and TCA value in each OJ group were significantly higher than that of the control and sham operation groups.②In the control and sham operation group,normal structure of the liver remained,but in the OJ group,obvious degeneration of hepatocytes was detected,such as cholastasis,starch accumulation and fatty degeneration.Kupffer cells and dilated Disse'space were common in the OJ group.In the OJ group.histopathologic findings of the liver demonstrated intense degree of fibrosis,but in the OJ+A group.typical changes of large duct obstruction were significantly improved after astragalus injection treatment.③The TGF-β1 mRNA over-expression in the OJ group was seen compared with the control and the OJ+A groups.Conclusion ①In growing rat model of experimental obstructive jaundice,hepatic morphology and liver biochemical tests altered significantly.②The administration of astragaius can ameliorate liver damage and diminish expression of TGF-β1 mRNA of hepatic tissue,thus administration of astragalus may be effective in preventing hepatic injury in growing rats with obstructive jaundice.

BACKGROUND: It is still controversial that interspinous dynamic stabilization system Wallis and Coflex which one can provide better clinical effects for lumbar degenerative disease.OBJECTIVE: To systematically assess the clinical effectiveness and safety of Wallis and Coflex for lumbar degenerative disease.METHODS: According to the computer-based online search of PubMed, Embase, Medline, Cochrane Library, CBM,CNKI, Wanfang Database, and VIP, articles published before August 1st, 2016 were searched. Articles about Wallis comparing with Coflex for lumbar degenerative disease were included; the quality score of methodology was assessed by MINORS. Research data abstracted and synthesized by Review Manager 5.3 were used for meta-analysis.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Six studies were included, and all studies were designed for non-randomized controlled trial. (2) There were no significant statistical differences in Japanese Orthopedic Association, Oswestry disability index, visual analogue scale score, Prolo functional score, segmental lordosis angle, and segment movement degree. Incidence of adverse events was significantlue scale less in the Wallis group than in the Conflex group (P < 0.05).(3) There was no significant difference in clinical efficacy between Wallis and Coflex in the early and mid-term follow-up.We can conclude that Wallis may provide better clinical safety than Coflex.

[ ABSTRACT] AIM:To study the effect of idazoxan ( IDA) on the permeability of blood-brain barrier ( BBB) and the expression of matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 1 (TIMP-1) in mouse ex-perimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE).METHODS: Female C57BL/6 mice (n=36) were randomly divided into control group, EAE group and IDA group, with 12 mice in each group.EAE was induced by myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein 35-55 ( MOG35-55 ) .IDA (2 mg/kg, ip, bid) was administered for 15 d after immunization.The neurological defects of the mice were observed daily and scored.The pathological changes were observed under microscope with HE stai-ning and LFB myelin staining.The BBB permeability was detected by Evans blue extravasation.The expression of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 in the brain of EAE mice was determined by Western blotting.RESULTS: Compared with EAE group, the score of neurological defects in IDA group was decreased, the inflammation was relieved, the BBB permeability was re-duced, and the expression MMP-9 and the ratio of MMP-9/TIMP-1 were decreased ( P<0.05 ) .CONCLUSION: The neuroprotective effect of IDA on mouse EAE might be related to the down-regulation of MMP-9 and the ratio of MMP-9/TIMP-1, thus reducing the degradation of BBB and the permeability of BBB, and ameliorating the pathologic process of EAE.

ObjectiveTo discuss the quantitative criteria of grading nursing of three common psychiatric diseases in psychiatric department. MethodsUsing SI、N-BPRS,BRMS and HAMD scales to evaluate180 patients with schizophrenia,mania and depression upon admission and after admission.The quantitative evaluation of grading nursing of these three diseases was compared. ResultsFor the three common mental diseases N- BPRS scale scores were as follows.Superfine nursing:schizophrenia (80.66+11.22)points; mania (80.05± 15.44)points; depression (76.88±9.82)points.Primary care:schizophrenia (67.47± 10.18)points; mania ( 62.91 ± 10.19 )points; depression ( 56.63±9.52 )points; Secondary nursing:schizophrenia ( 44.04 ±8.67 )points;mania( 39.57±9.47 )points ;depression( 37.73±7.75 )points.The three- level nursing:schizophrenia( 27.97±2.19 )points;mania(27.89±2.28)points;depression(27.45±1.31 )points.
