Objective To investigate the computer tomography (CT) and magnetic res-onance imaging (MRI) features of posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) caused by pregnancy-indueed hypertension (PIH). Methods CT scan and MRI scan + diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) were used in 31 patients with PIH. Results CT scan found low density lesions in parietal-occipital lobe of watershed regions in 31 patients with PIH. CT value was 19 to 23Hu. Among them, MRI showed slight hypointensity lesions on T1-weighted images and slight hyperintensity lesions on T2-weight images in 11 patients, fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) sequence showed hyperintensity lesions, DWI revealed isointense, and apparent diffusion coefficient- did not decrease. The recovery time of clinical symptoms was earlier than that of MRI. Conclusions The lesion sites on cr and MRI had certain characteristics in PIH occurred PRES at late pregnancy, combining clinical history a clear diagnosis could be made.

Objective To master the status of iodine content in drinking water and iodine nutritional status of population before and after the salt iodine concentration reduction in 2012 in Meizhou City, and to provide a scientific basis for safety assessment of salt iodine content after adjustment of the policy.Methods Using stratified random sampling method, drinking water samples were collected, and iodide content was measured by cerous sulfate catalytic spectrophotometry.Urine samples of children aged 8-10 were collected, in which the iodide content was quantitatively tested by arsenic cerium catalytic spectrophotometry.Samples of household edible salt were collected to determine iodine content by direct titration in 2012 before (September 2011), and after the salt iodine concentration reduction (September 2012 and September 2013).Results A total of 422 water samples were measured, the median iodine content of water was 2.4 μg/L.The water iodine median was 2.1 μg/L in centralized water supply (n =163),and 2.9 μg/L in decentralized water supply (n =259), the difference was statistically significant (U =-2.526, P ＜ 0.05).Totally 800 and 803 urine samples of children aged 8-10 were collected in 2011 and 2012, median urinary iodine was 216.5 and 207.5 μg/L, respectively, which were higher than that in 2013 (n =807, 190.0 μg/L, x2 =17.040,24.868, all P ＜ 0.05).Urinary iodine ≥300 μg/L ratio was significantly decreased (2013 than 2011 and 2012,19.3％ (156/807) vs.26.5％ (212/800) and 24.5％ (197/803), x2 =6.363, 11.695, all P ＜ 0.05), and urinary iodine ＜ 100 μg/L rose in the proportion (2013 than 2011, 18.0％ vs.13.5％, x2 =6.045, P ＜ 0.05).A total of 2 410 household salt samples were tested, and the coverage rate of iodized salt, iodized salt qualified rate, the consumption rate of qualified iodized salt were all higher than 98.8％.Totally 800, 803 and 807 salt samples were collected in 2011, 2012 and 2013, the salt iodine medians were 31.0, 27.7 and 25.4 mg/kg, respectively, the difference between the salt iodine medians was statistically significant (H =91.422, P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Iodine excess risk is significantly decreased, and the level of iodine nutritional status of the city's population is appropriate after the salt iodine concentration reduction in 2012.The salt iodine concentration adjusted is suitable and safe.

Objective To investigate the effect of lentivirus-mediated siRNA interference of USP39 on proliferation and migration of mice vascular smooth muscle cell in vitro.Methods Five siRNAs of siControl, siRNAUSP39-70, siRNAUSP39-71, siRNAUSP39-72 and siRNAUSP39-73 were designed and sythezied,mice VSMCs were infected with the lentivirus for delivering siRNAUSP39-73, and the stably transfected cells were selected by puromycin.The interference efficiency of siRNAUSP39-73 was assessed with Western blot.The effect of USP39 interference on the proliferation of VSMCs was determined by cells counting and MTT assay.Transwell assay was used to detect the migration of VSMCs.Results Recombinant lentiviral vector siRNAUSP39-73 was successfully transfected into mice VSMCs.Comparing with siControl group and Normal group, USP39 protein level of siRNAUSP39-73 VSMCs were decreased(P<0.05), and the proliferation and migration ability were all inhibited(P<0.05).Conclusion Targeted down-regulation of USP39 expression can inhibit the proliferation and migration of mice VSMCs in vitro.

Objective To reduce birthrate of severe thalassemia children of this area and improve population diathesis.Methods The red blood cell indices analysis was carried out on all of the samples of 2 218 couples.GapPCR and RDB method were used for α-thalassemia genotyping and β-thalassemia genotyping.Results 277 cases of thalassemia (12.49％) were identified among the total cases.220 cases were with α-thalassemia(9.92％),which including 198 cases of--SEA/αα,11 cases of-α37/,7 cases of-α4.2/αα,57 cases were with β-thalassemia(2.57％),the types of mutation were CD41/42 (-TTCT),IVS2nt-654 (C→T),CD17 (A→T),-28 (A→G),TATAbox29 (A→G),CD71/72(+ A).42 carrier couples were detected for thalassemia and the fetuses were subjected prenatal diagnosis:3cases of Bart's edema,7 cases of β-thalassemia homozygote.Conclusions Neonates with major thalassemia can be clarified and even avoided by screening the incidence and types of genicmutations.Thus setting up the system of prenatal screening-prenatal diagnosis-selective abortion is effective to avoid the birth of neonates.And it is vital to improve the quality of human being.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of infrared radiation and magnetic fields on the synovitis of rabbit with experimental knee osteoarthritis (OA).MethodsTwenty-four New Zealand grown rabbits were duplicated for OA model of the knee by extended fixation technique, and after 6 weeks, all rabbits were unchained from fixation. The rabbits were randomly divided into four groups: control group (no treatment), infrared group (treated with infrared radiation ), magnet-therapy group (treated with magnetic fields ) and the combined therapy group (treated with infrared radiation and magnetic fields). At the ends of the first, second and third week after treatment, 2 rabbits in each group were taken to measure the general change and histopathology of their synovium.ResultsCompared with other groups, the severity of synovitis (include the synovium line cells proliferation, the invading of granulation and blood vessels in the underlayer of synovium, the infiltration of inflammatory cells) declined significantly in combined therapy group. Scores of Ayral's index of combined group were significantly lower than other groups ( P<0.05), and there was no significant difference between infrared group and magnet-therapy group ( P>0.05).ConclusionThe combination of infrared radiation and magnetic fields can efficiently suppress the synovitis of OA and alleviate the tissue's destructions.

Objective To analyze the difference in computed tomography (CT) imaging findings between pulmonary alveolar pneumoconiosis Methods proteinosis (PAP) and occupational pneumoconiosis (hereinafter referred to as ). A total of 44 patients with PAP (PAP group) and 44 patients with pneumoconiosis (pneumoconiosis group) were selected as study subjects using Results convenient sampling method. The CT images of these two groups were comparatively analyzed. The detection rates of - - pulmonary CT pattern changes such as map like performance, ground glass opacity, paving stone sign and sphenoid wing like vs vs changes of pulmonary hilum in the PAP group were higher than those in the pneumoconiosis group (77.3% 0.0%, 75.0% vs vs P 2.3%, 56.8% 0.0%, 18.2% 0.0%, all <0.01); the detection rates of lymphadenopathy and calcification of pulmonary hilum, small pulmonary nodules, emphysema and interlobular septal thickening were lower in the PAP group than those in the vs vs vs vs P Conclusion pneumoconiosis group (34.1% 100.0%, 4.5% 100.0%, 2.3% 45.4%, 0.0% 22.7%, all <0.01). Paving - stone sign and map like performance were most commonly found in the CT imaging of patients with PAP, and it is uncommon in pneumoconiosis. These changes could be used as the CT differential diagnosis of the two diseases.
