ObjectiveTo study the expression of EZH2 gene in cervical squamous carcinoma and its clinicopathologic significance. MethodsThe expression of EZH2 mRNA was detected in 21 samples of normal cervical tissue, 27 samples of CIN tissue and 48 samples of cervical squamous carcinoma tissue by RT-PCR. And the relationship between EZH2 expression and the clinical pathological characteristic was analyzed. ResultsThe level of EZH2 mRNA in cervical squamous carcinoma tissues(1.67±0.01)were significantly higher than that in the normal cervical tissues (0) and CIN tissues (0.36±0.02) (P ＜ 0.01).There was no correlation between EZH2 and ages (P ＞ 0.05), while the expression of EZH2 was highly correlated with histologic stage,clinical stage,muscular invasion depth and lymph node metastasis of cervical squamous carcinoma (P ＜ 0.01).ConclusionThe over-expression of the EZH2mRNA may play an important role in the pathogenesis and progression of cervical squamous carcinoma,suggesting that EZH2 might be a new biomarker for diagnosing cervical squamous carcinoma.

Objective To investigate radiation dose diffent type of anesthesia affected radiation dose when we do interventional therapy for child patent ductus arteriosus (PDA).Methods From 201 1 to 2014,we collected 50 children(3-6 years old)with PDA which received interventional therapy were included in the study.They were divided into two groups:group A (25 cases,male/fe-male=7/18,mean weight=1 5.32 kg±2.41 5 kg)underwent interventional therapy of PDA under general anesthesia,and group B (25 cases,male/female=13/12,mean weight=1 6.40 kg±2.056 kg)using local anesthesia.The surgery were operated by the same doctor,we used DSA children cardiovascular film AE mode (ped CARD)to monitor the surgery,image frames 1 5-30 f/s,used the non-ionic contrast agent (Iodixanol 320 mg I/mL)and recorded the child cumulative incidence of skin surface dose (AK),dose area product(DAP),and time of fluoroscopy,and do statistical analysis.Results All 50 cases were performed the surgery successfully. There were no significant difference of age,weight and gender between groups (age:t=1.924,P =0.06;weight:t =1.703,P =0.095;gender:χ2 =3.00,P =0.083).The cumulative incidence of skin surface dose (AK),dose area product (DAP)and time of fluoroscopy were (0.061±0.025)Gy,(5.08±2.19)Gy·cm2 and (3.15±1.16)min in A group,and (0.094±0.046)Gy,(8.41±3.587)Gy·cm2 , (6.86±3.27)min in B group.The sequence and image number of two groups were same.There were significantly differences of cumulative incidence of skin surface dose (AK),dose area product (DAP)and time of fluoroscopy between two groups (AK:t =3.152,P =0.003;DAP:t =3.957,P =0.000;time of fluoroscopy:t =5.346,P =0.000).The radiation doses of A group significantly lower than B group,compared with B group,the radiation dose were 40 percent [(1-5.08/8.41)%]lower in A group,the 1.1 7 times discrepancy of time of fluoroscopy between two group [(3.1 5-6.86)/3.1 5].Conclusion Radiation dose is associated with type of anesthesia. Compared with local anesthesia,radiation dose reduced 40% using general anesthesia during interventional therapy for PDA.

Objective To investigate self-management status of the DM patients,and to confirm scientifically the importance of emphasising diabetes education in the DM patients.Methods With the questionnaire on self-management status & the possessed degree of DM knowledge and the method of consulting the medical records,697 DM patients were investigated.Results There were about 47.20% of patients who did not take glycemic examination in one year.Awareness rates for the standards of blood lipids and the HbA_1C were 6.5% and 5.5% respectively.And the awareness rates for nutrition treatment principle and scientific mode of physical exercise were 30.3% and 21.8%,respectively.The prevalence of The DM complications was the highest in the cadre(29.52%) and the lowest in the peasants(3.59%).Conclusion The investigation revealed the self-management is imperfect and the DM knowledge in DM patients is insufficient.It should be accentuated for patients to take health education of DM knowledge and improve their level of self-management.

Objective To evaluate the effect of neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) on the expression of serine/threonine protein kinase (Akt) during ropivacaine-induced neurotoxicity to the spinal cord of rats.Methods Healthy adult male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 1-2 months,weighing 280-320 g,were used in the study.A catheter was inserted at L5,6 interspace into the epidural space of rats.A total of 108 rats,in which intrathecal catheters were successfully implanted,were randomly divided into 3 groups (n =36each):control group (group C),1％ ropivacaine group (group R),and 1％ ropivacaine + NT-3 group (group NT).The equal volume of normal saline was given in group C,1％ ropivacaine 0.12 ml/kg was injected via the intrathecal catheter once every 1.5 h for 8 times in total in R and NT groups.In addition,NT-3 0.1 mg/kg was simultanenously injected via the intrathecal catheter in group NT.On days 1,3,5,7,14 and 28 after the end of administration (T1-6),6 rats were sacrificed in each group.Their lumbar enlargements were removed for determination of neuronal apoptosis (using TUNEL) and Akt expression (by immuno-histochemistry).The apoptotic rate was calculated.Results Compared with group C,the apoptotic rate was significantly increased at T1-4,and Akt expression was significantly up-regulated at T1-3 in group R,and the apoptotic rate were significantly increased,and Akt expression was significantly up-regulated at T1-3 in group NT (P＜0.05).Compared with group R,the apoptotic rate was significantly decreased at T3,4,and Akt expression was significantly down-regulated at T2.3 in group NT (P＜0.05).Conclusion The mechanism by which NT-3 reduces ropivacaine-induced neurotoxicity to the spinal cord may be related to down-regulation of the expression of Akt in rats.

Hepatitis B-related acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) is a severe clinical syndrome characterized by jaundice, coagulopathy, ascites and hepatic encephalopathy and with a high mortality rate of 65% to 93%. It involves significant ethical issues when a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled clinical study is conducted to such a serious disease. Therefore, a prospective cohort study design was utilized to explore a new treatment modality of applying integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the prophylactic effect of Budesonide on the expression of IL-4,IL-5 in nasal mucosa in model of minimal persistent inflammation of allergic rhinitis in rats. METHOD: Eighty SD rats were randomly divided into allergic rhinitis group (A group), experimental (B group), control group (C group) and negative control group (D group). A group was made for model of allergic rhinitis. B and C group were made for model of the lightest persistent inflammatory response. After the models were established, half of rats in the A group, B group, C group and D group were executed, and EOS infiltration and the expression of IL-4, IL-5, ICAM-1 were observed in nasal mucosa. The remaining rats of B group were given budesonide (64 microg/side/time, twice/day) treatment for 2 weeks. A, C, D group were given nasal spray with normal saline for 2 weeks. After that A, B, and C groups were stimulated with 1% OVA daily for one week, D group were given nasal spray with normal saline. All rats were executed after excitation, EOS infiltration and IL-4, IL-5 expression were observed. RESULT: After the drug treatment, B group only had a small amount of mucous EOS infiltration and had no significant difference with D group, but in A and C group EOS had heavy infiltration. Gray value of the IL-4 positive areas in B group were significantly different compared with A and C group (P < 0.05), A group and C group had no significant difference (P > 0.05). Distribution of IL-5 positive signals was similar with that of IL-4. CONCLUSION Budesonide MPI application could significantly inhibit the allergic.
