Objective To investigate the effects of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) on BMP-6 expression during mandibular distraction osteogenesis. Methods Twenty-five mature rabbits were randomly divided into five groups. Mandibular osteoto?mies were performed corticectomy in bilateral mandibles of rabbits. PRF was implanted in the one side of mandibles, which was used as experimental group. Another side of madibular was used as control group. Rabbits were sacrificed and the dis?tracted calluses were harvested and processed for HE and BMP-6 immunohistochemistry staining at 1, 3, 7, 14 and 28 days after the end of distraction, respectively. The expressions of BMP-6 in the distracted calluses were analyzed by cell digital imaging software. Results The regenerated bone was found in the distraction gap after mandibular lengthening. Expres?sions of BMP-6 were co-localized in cytoplasm of osteoblasts and newly embedded osteocytes. Compared with control group, the positive cell rate and positive area percentage of BMP-6 were significantly higher on the 1st, 3th and 7th day after the distraction in experimental group (P<0.05). There were no significant differences in positive cell rate and positive area per?centage of BMP-6 at 14-day and 28-day after the distraction between experimental group and control group. Conclusion PRF can accelerate bone formation of mandibular distraction osteogenesis in rabbits. BMP-6 may play important role at the early stage of mandibular distraction.

Objective: In this paper the pharmacodynamical mechanism of Heat Asthma Formula(HAF)(Herba Ephedrae, Rhizoma pinelliae, Flos Lonicerae, etc) in the treatment of bronchial asthma was discussed. Methods: By means of the radio labelled aglycone, applying phlogistic medium TXB2, ? receptor on bronchus and cyclic nucleotide (cAMP/cGMP) in lung tissue used as observed targets. Results: The results showed HAF could inhibit the release of phlogistic medium TXB2, improve the conjugate rate of ? receptor, adjust the proportion between cAMP and cGMP. Conclusion: The treatment on bronchial asthma of “Heat Asthma Formula” was perhaps concerned with above mentioned contents.

Objective To explore the mechanism of Huagan Jiedu decoction in treatment of chronic hepatitis B by testing the influence of the decoction on Serum IL-2, IL-4 and IFN-γ of rat models of chronic hepatic injury. Methods The model of Chronic hepatic injury was established by subcutaneously injecting 40% CCl4-olive oil solution in rats according to the ratio of 3ml per kg. of body weight. 60 healthy rats were divided randomly into a normal group, a model group, a low dose of Huagan Jiedu decoction group, a large dose of Huagan Jiedu decoction group, and a control group (Qingre Jiedu tablet group), 15 cases in each group. The Serum IL-2, IL-4 and IFN-γ were detected in each group separately. Results Compared with the normal group, the Serum IL-2 and IFN-γ were decreased (t=2.401, 2.337, P=0.0349, 0.0378) and the Serum IL-4 was increased (t=2.896, P=0.00861 ) in the model group; Compared with the model group, the Serum IL-2 and IFN-γ were increased (t=2.417, 2.344, P=0.0341, 0.0372, P＜0.05; t=3.114, 2.988, P=0.0052, 0.0068) in the large Huagan Jiedu decoction group and the control group, while the Serum IFN-γ was increased (t=3.049, P=0.0062) in the low dose of Huagan Jiedu decoction group and the Serum IL-4 was decreased (t=3.102, 3.017, 2.979, P=0.0061, 0.0065, 0.0069)in both Huagan Jiedu decoction groups and the control group. Conclusion Large dose of Huagan Jiedu decoction has sound therapeutic effects on rats with chronic hepatic injury by decreaseing the content of the Serum IL-4 and increasing IL-2 and IFN-γ, and adjusting th1/th2 balance.

Objective To study the local irritation of repeated intrathecal injection of Ziconotide Acetate,and to provide reference for irritancy evaluation ofintrathecal injection.Methods Sixteen New Zealand rabbits were assigned into two groupsat random:Control group and Ziconotide Acetate group,eight animals each group.Totally 50 μL saline or Ziconotide Acetate (100 μg/mL) were administrated by repeated lumbar intrathecal injection once daily for 7 d.Animal behavior was observed every day,and four animals in each group were sacrificed 2 d later after the last injection,the lumbar spinal cord was removed for histopathological examination and irritancy evaluation.The remaining animals were sacrificed for initancy evaluation 14 d later after the last injection.Results Only one animal died after anesthesia on day three in saline group,while no obvious adverse reactions were observed in other rabbits during the entire study,and no intrathecal irritant reactions of histopathological examination were found in both groups.The reversible minor mechanical damage was observed at the injection point,2 d after the last administration.Conclusion For 7 d repeated lumbar intrathecal injection in rabbits,no intrathecal irritant reactions observed in Ziconotide group,and the New Zealand rabbit could be used as a local irritation evaluation model.

Objective To reduce the screening positive rate (SPR) and improve clinical efficiency of maternal serum screening for Down's syndrome.Methods Nine thousand and thirty-three cases of second trimester maternal serum screening for Down's syndrome were included from Apr.2013 to Apr.2014 in the present study.The screening results,all basic data and equation curves were analyzed retrospectively.Based on the data from the authors' laboratory,the important adjustment parameters were simulated.Combined with postnatal follow-up results,the quality and clinical performance of second trimester serum screening for Down's syndrome were evaluated.Results The SPR of second trimester serum screening for Down's syndrome was 6.69％(604/9033),the detection rate (DR) was 75％(3/4),and FPR was 6.65％(601/9033).The median multiple of median (MOM) of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) was low and SPR was high,and MOM of free human chorionic gonadotropin β subunit (free hCGβ) were high and SPR was high,while MOM of unconjugated estriol (uE3) were a little bit low,and SPR was slightly high.Considering these three factors,it is believed that the screening positive rate is high.By the simulation adjustments of MOM value equations (AFP and free hCGβ) and weight correction equation,the SPR reduced to 4.11％(371/9033) after recalculating the risk,FPR declined to 4.07％(368/9033),and no more Down's syndrome fetus were missed compared with postnatal follow-up results.Conclusion Based on a localized setting depending on the local laboratory data,we suggest that the MOM value distributions(AFP,free hCGβ and uE3) and maternal weight should be regularly adjusted since it is a useful way to reduce the false-positive rate and improve clinical efficiency of maternal serum screening for Down's syndrome.

Objective:To describe the clinical characteristics , overall survival as well as to evaluate the prognostic factors in Chinese diffuse large B cell lymphoma ( DLBCL) patients.Methods: DLBCL pa-tients who were initially diagnosed and treated in Peking University Cancer Hospital from January 1995 to December 2008 were identified and analyzed ,retrospectively .The 5-year OS rates were estimated with Ka-plan-Meier.Log-rank test was used to compare the survival curves of the different groups .The multivari-ate analysis of prognostic factors was conducted with Cox regression model , which included all statistically significant prognostic factors in the univariate analyses .Results:A total of 525 DLBCL patients were in-cluded in this retrospective analysis , of whom , 294 were male and 231 female ( male∶female=1 .27∶1 ) . The median age at the initial diagnosis was 55 (range 16-90) years, and 37.0% (n=194) were 60 years and above .Regarding the clinical staging at the initial diagnosis , 54 patients (10.3%) were diag-nosed as Stage Ⅰ of the disease, 152 (28.9%) as Stage Ⅱ, 117 (22.3%) as Stage Ⅲ and 202 (38.5%) as Stage Ⅳ.The ‘B symptoms’ and increased serum LDH were presented in 206 (39.2%) and 192 (36.6%) patients, respectively.A total of 197 (37.5%) patients were treated with rituximab (R).The survival follow-up continued till 31 January 2014 with a median follow-up time of 77.5 ( range:0-205) months.A total of 267 patients (50.9%) died during the follow-up period.The medi-al overall survival ( OS) time was 84 months, and 5-year OS rate was 52.3%.There were six statistically significant prognostic factors that were identified in both univariate and multivariate analyses : gender, Ann Arbor stage, B symptom, serum LDH, age at initial diagnosis and rituximab treatment .The relative risk ( RR) of these prognostic factors in the multivariate analyses were: age >60 years /≤60 years=1.380 (95%CI 1.078 -1.765), male /female =1.315 (95%CI 1.025 -1.687), stage Ⅲ/stageⅠ=3.034(95%CI 1.667-5.522), stage Ⅳ/Ⅰ=3.748(95%CI 2.102 -6.681), with B symp-toms/without B symptoms=1.278(95%CI 0.999-1.636),serum LDH increased/LDH not increased=1.351(95%CI 1.057 -1.726), without R treatment /with R treatment =1.543(95%CI 1.182 -2 .015 ) .Compared with the IPI , age >50 years/≤50 years was a statistically significant factor in both univariate and multivariate analyses RR =1.478 (95%CI 1.148-1.902), P=0.002.Conclusion:Six factors were related to DLBCL survival:gender, Ann Arbor stage, B symptom, serum LDH, age at initial diagnosis and rituximab treatment .Compared with the IPI , several specific factors may predict a poor prognosis in Chinese DLBCL patients:male , age>50 years and the presence of ‘B symptoms ’ .But this result is not conclusive until these factors are further tested .

Endoplasmic reticulum homeostasis unbalance caused by endoplasmic reticulum stress has become a hot research topic in recent years. This paper focuses on the role of endoplasmic retic-ulum stress in ischemic stroke. Research progress of related sig-naling pathways were reviewed, especially mechanisms through which endoplasmic reticulum stress trigger the inflammatory reac-tion, so as to provide a new research method for prevention of is-chemic stroke.

Objective: To investigate the relationship between classroom lighting and poor vision of students in primary and secondary schools in Tianjin, and to provide reference for targeted prevention measures for comprehensive school eye health programmes. Methods: A total of 623 classrooms and 24 713 students in 89 primary and secondary schools in Tianjin were selected using stratified cluster sampling method in Sep.to Oct. of 2020. The illuminometer was used to monitor the lighting environment of the classroom, and the standard logarithmic vision light box was used to detect the naked eye vision of students. Chisquare test, variance analysis and binary Logistic regression were used in SPSS software. Results: Rate of low vision among primary and secondary school students in Tianjin was 67.86%. The qualification rate of blackboard reflectance, blackboard average illumination, blackboard illumination uniformity, desk average illumination and desk illumination uniformity were 58.11%, 53.13%, 73.19%, 66.61% and 75.12%, respectively. Univariate analyses showed that the blackboard reflectance, blackboard average illumination, desk average illumination, and desk illumination uniformity were associated with low vision among students(χ 2=311.29, 62.54, 61.71, 6.59, P<0.05). Multivariable Logistic regression analysis showed that blackboard reflectance, average illumination of blackboard and desk were associated with higher risk of poor vision[OR(95%CI)=1.19(1.11-1.27),1.27(1.17-1.37),1.11(1.02-1.20), P<0.05]. Conclusion Prevalence of low vision among primary and secondary school students in Tianjin is relatively high. Blackboard reflectance, average illumination of blackboard and desk are the important determinants for poor vision of primary and secondary school students. Creating effective classroom lighting scheme is crucial for vision health among students.

Objective To systematically evaluate the relation between prognostic nutrition index (PNI) and prognosis of bladder cancer (BC) patients treated with radical cystectomy (RC). Methods We searched the literatures about the relation between PNI and the prognosis of patients treated with radical cystectomy published from the inception to January 30, 2021 in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP and Chinese Medical Journal Database, and used RevMan5.3 software for Meta analysis. Results We included six literatures which comprise a total of 1273 patients. The results showed that there was a significant correlation between low PNI and OS of BC patients treated with RC (HR=2.0, 95%CI: 1.56-2.56), and there was a significant difference in RFS, PFS and DSS between low PNI and BC patients treated with RC (HR=1.93, 95%CI: 1.51-2.48). In the subgroup analysis, there were statistical differences in PNI and the prognosis of BC patients treated with RC between the Chinese group (HR=2.13, 95%CI: 1.62-2.81) and the Japanese group (HR=1.78, 95%CI: 1.08-2.94), and the PNI cutoff value had a good predictive effect on the prognosis of patients in the range of 46.08-51.30. Conclusion There is a significant relation between the level of PNI and OS of bladder cancer patients treated with radical cystectomy. Low PNI can be used as an effective marker to predict the prognosis of patients.

The teaching of diabetes has always been the focus and difficulty of clinical internal science teaching. How to skillfully integrate theoretical knowledge into clinical practice and help students deeply master medical knowledge and clinical skills is a topic that clinical teaching teachers are considering. Under the background of analyzing the concept and connotation of deep blended learning, this paper constructed the diabetes "doctor-patient" friendly model teaching process in the perspective of deep blended learning from the three stages of "learning situation analysis and independent learning" in the early stage, "ability improvement and in-depth research" in the middle stage, and "reflection and ability expansion" in the later stage. This paper expounded the positive role of the "doctor-patient" friendly model of diabetes in clinical teaching from three main aspects: improving the integration effect of theory and practice, fully meeting students’ learning needs, and increasing the connection between doctors, patients, and students.
