Objective To explore the relationship between the C677T single nucleotide polymorphism of N5, N10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) and blood stasis syndrome (BSS) of ischemic stroke (IS). Methods The MTHFR C677T genotypes in 84 patients of IS of BSS type (BSS-IS group), 143 patients of IS of non-BSS type (non-BSS-IS group) were determined by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) assay. Results The constituent ratio of MTHFR CC, CT and TT genotype was significantly different between two groups (? 2 =12.618;d.f.=2, P=0.002). The frequencies of T allele in patients with BSS-IS (39.29%) were higher than that of non-BSS-IS group (24.48%). The MTHFR TT genotype was associated with a 3.730-fold increased risk for BSS-IS (OR=3.730;95%CI, 1.229~11.318; P =0.014). Conclusion The MTHFR TT genotype may be one of the risk factors associated with the susceptivity to BSS-IS.

OBJECTIVEThis longitudinal study aimed to investigate the caries status of primary and permanent teeth among 6-year-old children in Sichuan Province from 2010 to 2012.
METHODSA sample that comprised 652 6-year-old children from six different elementary schools (three represented the urban areas, and the other three represented the rural areas) were examined according to a baseline, with follow-up examinations at 1, 2, and 3 years. Eruption and caries experience were re- corded using World Health Organization criteria.
RESULTSThe prevalence rates of primary tooth caries of 6-year-old children in Sichuan Province for 3 years were 74.23% (484/652), 75.61% (493/652), and 81.90% (534/652). The filling rate of the primary teeth was 5.87% (145/2,471) in 2012, with significant differences (P < 0.01) between the urban areas [10.84% (133/ 1,227)] and rural areas [0.96% (12/1,244)]. The total pit and fissure rate of the first molar was 14.11% (92/652) in 2012, with significant differences between the two areas (P < 0.01) [rural: 0.66% (2/303); urban: 25.79% (90/349)].
CONCLUSIONThe pre- valence of caries in the primary and permanent teeth of 6-year-old children was high. An increasing prevalence tendency was observed as the age increased. The prevalence of first molar caries indicated that prevention and control of dental caries should be performed as early as possible.

Objective To analyze the risk factors of subclavian venous catheter-related infections in patients with traumatic hemorrhagic shock (THS) and provide a basis for prevention and control of the infection. Methods A retrospective study was conducted. 357 patients with THS and indwelling of subclavian vein catheter admitted in the Department of Emergency of Affiliated Hospital of Sichuan Provincial Luzhou Medical College were enrolled, and according to the infection state, they were divided into infection group (56 cases) and non-infection group (301 cases). The patients' data of gender, age, history of underlying disease, catheter position, catheter indwelling time, time staying in hospital, situation of antimicrobial drug used, application of tracheotomy or not, white blood cell count (WBC) levels, etc were collected for univariate analysis. The resulting indexes with statistical significance were applied for carrying out the multivariate logistic regression analysis, and then the independent risk factors involved in the development of subclavian venous catheter-related infections in the shock patients could be screened out.Results In 357 patients with THS, 56 were infected (15.7%). Univariate analysis showed: age ≥ 60 years (χ2 = 19.839,P < 0.001), with diabetes mellitus in past history (χ2 = 6.252,P = 0.012), catheter indwelling time ≥ 7 days (χ2 = 19.261,P < 0.001), time staying in hospital ≥ 7 days (χ2 = 4.315,P = 0.038), time for use of antimicrobial drug≥ 7 days (χ2 = 16.161,P < 0.001), tracheotomy (χ2 = 40.969,P < 0.001), WBC < 4×109/L (χ2 = 39.451,P < 0.001) and the disease severity grade 4 - 5 (χ2 = 8.345,P = 0.004) were the risk factors of subclavian venous catheter-related infections in patients with THS. Multivariate analysis showed: catheter indwelling time ≥ 7 day [odds ratio (OR) = 16.713, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) 3.651 - 76.624), tracheotomy (OR = 6.861, 95%CI 2.377 - 18.246), WBC < 4×109/L (OR = 4.903, 95%CI 1.887 - 12.643) were the independent risk factors of subclavian venous catheter-related infections in THS patients.Conclusion The strict implementation of aseptic catheterization, shortening the time of catheter indwelling as much as possible and the rational use of antibiotics can effectively reduce and prevent the incidence of venous catheter-related infection in THS patients.

The underlying effect of different concentrations of neogenin on proliferation, apoptosis and the related proliferative factors in human trophoblasts was explored in order to understand the function of neogenin during placentation. TEV-1 cell line was cultured and the expression of netrin-1 was detected by using indirect cellular immunofluorescence. Exponentially growing TEV-1 cells were treated by different concentrations of neogenin (0, 1, 5, 10, 50 ng/mL) for 24 h. Cell viability was measured by 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. TEV-1 cell apoptosis was assessed by flow cytometry (FCM). The expression of netrin-1 mRNA and protein in TEV-1 cells was examined by using real-time PCR and Western blot, respectively. It was found that immunoreactivity for netrin-1 was observed in cytoplasm of the trophoblasts. Immediately after treatment with different concentrations of neogenin for 24 h, the netrin-1 expression began to increase. Real-time PCR revealed that the expression level of netrin-1 mRNA was 37.59+/-10.25 times higher than control group when TEV-1 cells were exposed to 50 ng/mL neogenin (P<0.01), and the same tendency was seen by using Western blot. MTT results showed that proliferation of TEV-1 cells was independent of neogenin. Meanwhile, apoptosis was significantly increased to (22.15+/-6.15)% at 50 ng/mL neogenin and (6.55+/-0.25)% without neogenin (P<0.01). It is suggested that neogenin regulates proliferation and apoptosis of TEV-1 cells. And it can enhance the ability of TEV-1 cells to express netrin-1 in a dose-dependent manner. Neogenin may play an important biological role in the normal human pregnancy and contribute to the physiological pregnancy process.
