Objective To explore the correlations between Annexin A1 protein expression and clinicopathological character-istics in carcinoma of papillary thyroid.Methods The different expressions of annexin A1 in papillary thyroid tissue and para-cari-noma tissue were investigated by immunohistochemistry.Results Among 69 samples tissues of papillary thyriod carcinoma,the positive rate of annexin A1 was higher than that of 69 para-carcinoma tissues(88.41%vs .8.69%),there was a significant difference (P <0.05).Furthermore,the expression of annexin A1 was correlation with the lymph node metastasis and tumor size,which was higher in ≥1 cm diameter of tumor(P <0.05).Conclusion High AnnexinA1 positive expression in papillary thyroid cancer tissues is associated with tumor malignant progression,which might be a valuable predictor and potential target for the diagnosis and treat-ment of papillary thyroid carcinoma.

Objective Investigate the effect of EC50 of propofol target-injection in the different TCM (traditional Chinese medicine) physique types of patients who are in unconscious phase. Methods Depend on the standard protocol of TCM physique types sort and determination, we sorted 60 patients into three groups:Ping He (group A), Yang Xu (group B) and Yin Xu (group C), 20 patients per group. We applied the sequential experiment to measure the minimal EC50 and NI values of propofol when the patients were in the unconscious phase. Results The EC50 of propofol of group A, B and C are 3.85 μg/mL, 4.12 μg/mL and 3.43 μg/mL respectively. 95% confidence intervals of group A, B and C are 3.64 ~ 4.07 μg/mL, 3.92 ~ 4.33μg/mL and 3.26 ~ 3.60 μg/mL respectively. Conclusion There is a correlation between the different TCM physique types and the dosage of propofol target-injection.

The implantation of an intravascular stent has become a widely used minimally invasive treatment for coronary heart diseases due to its minimal invasiveness and high efficiency.But the long-term outcomes are often compromised by in-stent restenosis (ISR),which severely restricts its practical effectiveness.In this paper,the formation mechanism of ISR was discussed,and the effects of mechanical environment on ISR were analyzed from the view of solid mechanics.The research progress of stent expansion in vessels with 4 different shapes,including straight vessel,tapered vessel,bifurcation vessel and curved vessel was reviewed.Moreover,the correlations between vessel stress and vessel shape change caused by stent expansion and ISR were reviewed.Finally,based on the influence of different vessel shapes on stent expansion,a multi-objective optimization design method was proposed to improve the stent expansion performance and reduce the occurrence of ISR.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) on the proliferation, apoptosis and function of hyperoxia exposed Type II alveolar epithelial cells (AEC II) isolated from premature rat lungs, and to explore the mechanism of the protective effect of HGF on hyperoxia-induced lung injury. METHODS: Type II alveolar epithelial cells from fetal rat lungs were cultured. After being purified, AEC II was randomly divided to 4 groups: air group (Air), hyperoxia group (HO), air plus hepatocyte growth factor group (Air+HGF), hyperoxia plus hepatocyte growth factor group (HO+HGF) . The mRNA levels of surfactant associated protein, SPs (including SPA, SPB, SPC) were measured by RT-PCR. The proliferation and apoptosis of AEC II were analyzed with flow cytometric assay and Western blot. RESULTS: (1) Compared with Air group, the apoptosis rate increased significantly in the HO group, while G(2)/M phase percentage and the protein expression levels of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) decreased significantly (P<0.01); the S phase percentage and the protein expression levels of PCNA increased significantly in the Air+HGF group. (2) In the HO +HGF group, the apoptosis rate was not significantly different, G0/G1 phase percentage decreased significantly, S phase, G(2)/M phase percentage and the protein expression levels of PCNA increased significantly compared with the HO group. (3) SPs mRNA levels significantly decreased in the HO group compared with those in the Air group. After HGF was added, SPs mRNA levels increased in the HO +HGF group and the Air+HGF group compared with the HO group. CONCLUSION Hyperoxia can inhibit the proliferation, increase the apoptosis rate and decrease SPs mRNAs levels of AEC II in vitro in premature rats, while HGF can partly inhibit the changes of SPs mRNAs levels and cell proliferation of AEC II resulted from hyperoxia, and HGF may play a protective role in hyperoxia-induced lung injury.

Objective : To evaluate the risk of cardiovascular disease in hypertensive patients managed by communities in Tongxiang in the next 10 years,and to provide evidence for the development of cardiovascular disease prevention strategies. Methods: The information about hypertensive patients managed by communities was collected from Tongxiang resident health records management system. The risk of ischemic cardiovascular disease（ICVD）in the next 10 years was assessed by the Assessment Scale of 10-Year ICVD Risk in Chinese. Results: A total of 27 173 hypertensive patients managed by communities with complete data were recruited,including 11 868 males,accounting for 43.68%,and 15 305 females,accounting for 56.32%. The median（inter-quartile range）of the total scores of 10-year ICVD risk in hypertensive patients was 8.00（3.00）,with 9.00（2.00）in males and 8.00（2.00）in females. The total scores of 10-year ICVD risk in males was significantly higher than those in females（P<0.05）. A total of 8 764 patients had high 10-year ICVD risk,accounting for 32.25%. The proportion of high10-year ICVD risk in females with hypertension was higher than that in males（P<0.05）. The weights of ICVD risk factors in males were 54.58% in age,17.42% in systolic blood pressure,14.27% in smoking,7.77% in body mass index,4.51% in total cholesterol and 1.45% in diabetes;the ones in females were 63.57% in age,14.63% in systolic blood pressure,9.81% in body mass index,6.00% in total cholesterol,5.88% in diabetes and 0.11% in smoking. Conclusion The ICVD risk of hypertensive patients managed by communities in Tongxiang is higher in the next 10 years. Male patients should focus on the control of blood pressure and smoking,while female patients should focus on the control of blood pressure and body weight.
