Background Corneal alkali burn is a common cause of corneal neovascularization(CNV).Researches demonstrated that aquaporin 1(AQP1) plays key role in neovascularization of tumor tissue.So it is speculated that AQP1 participates in pathogenesis and development of CNV.ObjectivePresent study aims to investigate the expression of aquaporin 1(AQP1) in cornea after alkali burn and explore its role in corneal neovascularization.MethodsCornea neovascularization (CNV) models were established by putting a filter paper (the size of 3 mm in diameter immersed 1mol/L NaOH solution) on cornea for 20 seconds in the left eyes of 25 adult Sprague Dawley rats.The fellow eyes were treated using the filter paper with normal saline solution as normal control group.Corneal new blood vessel was evaluated under the slim lamp biomicroscopy once per day,and area of new vessel was calculated.The animals were sacrificed and corneal samples were obtained in day 1,4,7,14,21 after corneal alkali burn.The expression of AQP1 and VEGF in corneas were detected by immunochemistry,and the relative expression level of AQP1 mRNA in rat cornea was determined using RT-PCR.ResultsThe corneal neovascularization grew at the second day and reached the largest area at the fourteenth day after corneal alkali burn.The expression of VEGF protein (gray value) in corneal sample was significantly elevated from the first day through the fourteenth day after corneal alkali burn in comparison with control group(t_(1d)=12.410,t_(4d)=29.428,t_(7d)=16.030,t_(14d)=13.321,P<0.05),and then the expression level declined till twenty-one day without obvious difference in comparison with control group(t_(21d)=1.587,P>0.05).The expression of AQP1 protein showed the same tendency with that of VEGF protein(t_(1d)=7.623,t_(4d)=15.293,t_(7d)=18.291,t_(14d)=14.483,t_(21d)=6.381,P<0.05).The dynamic change expressions of AQP1 and VEGF showed a significant positive correlation(r=0.834,P<0.05).The expression of AQP1 mRNA (A value)was weaker in control group but considerably increased after alkali burn with the peak value in the seventh day,showing a significantly difference between day 1,4,7,14 and control group(t_(1d)=3.491,t_(4d)=10.690,t_(7d)=12.936,t_(14d)=10.767,t_(21d)=8.594,P<0.05).ConclusionThe level of AQP1 expression is markedly related to inflammatory CNV in rat cornea after alkali burn.

OBJECTIVETo compare the efficacy between eccentric fixation and internal fixation for treatment of intertrochanteric fractures of femur,to provide a theoretical basis for the selection of the treatment method of the intertrochanteric fractures of femur.
METHODSFrom February 2007 to January 2010,82 patients with femoral intertrochanteric fracture were treated by internal fixation including 39 cases of eccentric fixation involving 23 males and 6 females, aged from 41 to 81 years old with an average of (62.68±10.69), using the DHS or proximal femoral locking plate; 43 cases of intramedullary fixation involving 15 males, 28 females,aged from 43 to 78 years old with an average of (62.60±8.37),using PFN or PFNA fixed. The surgical incision length, operative time, blood loss and postoperative Harris score between two groups were compared.
RESULTSThe wound of two groups were primary healing without operative complications. All cases received follow-up for an average time of 18.3 months (12 to 28 months). The incision length, operative time and blood loss had a statistically significant difference between two groups (P<0.05). Harris scores of hip joint function at 1 month after operation had statistically significant difference between two groups (P<0.05), and Harris scores at 12 months after operation had no statistical significance difference between two groups. The rate of excellent and good was 89.7% in eccentric fixation group and 90.7% in intramedullary fixation group,the difference was not statistically significant (t=0.0613, P>0.05). In eccentric fixation group, there was 1 case of fracture nonunion with DHS loose and ensuing hip varus deformity. In intramedullary nail fixation group, there was no anti-rotation out,distal intramedullary nail of femoral refracture occurred in 1 case.
CONCLUSIONTwo treatment methods for the treatment of femoral fractures had a good therapeutic effect,but the intramedullary fixation had shorter operative time and less blood loss than the eccentric fixation,it prior to apply to osteoporosis and unstable femoral intertrochanteric fractures.

Objective To study on the effect of indicator animals in plague surveillance throngh detecting F1 antibody against Yersiniapestis(Y.pestis)in indicator animals in wild rat plague foci,provide scientific evidence for plague control and determining the range of epidemic area.Methods According to investigation scheme of wild rodents plagne foci in Yunnan Province,indicator animals Canis familiarils and Felis catu(C.familiarils and F.catus)related to the plague were investigated in 75 villages,14 township and 10 counties around Yulong County,and living rodents were captured by cage,sera of indicator animals and rodents relevant to plague were simultaneously collected and detected for F1 antibody against Y.pestis using indirect hemagglutination(IHA).Results Seropositivity rate of indicator animals were 6.76%(202/2987),being 24.69% in C.familiaris and 24.69% in F.catus,there were statistical significance(X2=87.32,P<0.01)between C familiaris and F catus,the latter beingmore than the former.But F1 antibody of rodents sera were not detected,its seropositivity rate was zero.there was a statistical significance(P<0.01)between indicator animals and rodents.Conclusions Through serocpidemiological survey of indicator animals,new wild rat plague natural focus has been confirmed in YuLong County and Gucheng District in LiJiang City,therefore,serocpidemiological surveillance of indicator animals is very important for plague control and prevention.

Objective To investigate the expression and significance of Smad 7,Smurf 1 and Smurf 2 in basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma.Methods Biopsy specimens were resected from 14 patients with basal cell carcinoma,19 patients with squamous cell carcinoma and 30 normal controls.Quanti- tative real-time PCR and immunohistochemical techniques were utilized to assess the expression of Smad 7, Smurf 1 and Smurf 2 in these specimens.Results The gray scale for staining of Smad 7,Smurf 1 and Smurf 2 was 166.61?7.11,166.08?8.71,and 166.25?8.15 respectively in basal cell carcinoma,161.66?5.52,166.84?9.27,and 169.98?9.48 respectively in squamous cell carcinoma.The expression levels of Smad 7,Smurf 1 and Smurf 2 were all significantly increased in basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell car- cinoma in comparison with normal controls.Conclusions The over-expression of Smad 7,Smurf 1 and Smurf 2 may interfere with transforming growth factor?signaling transduction pathway through several links,therefore prevent the inhibitory effect of transforming growth factor?on epidermal proliferation,and accelerate the abnormal proliferation in above epidermal tumors.

Objective To observe changes of luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and testosterone (T) in umbilical vein blood between male and female neonates, and assess the effect of serum LH, FSH and T on fetal growth.Methods Umbilical vein blood was obtained from 130 neonates (64 females and 66 males) in the second hospital of changshu city. According to birth weight, 130 neonates were divided into 3 groups: macrosomia (n=28), intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) (n=31) and normal neonates (n=71). The serum levels of LH, FSH and T were measured by radioimmunoassay.Results 1.The levels of LH, FSH and T in umbilical vein blood were significantly higher in male neonates than those in females (P
