PNAS-4 is a novel pro-apoptosis gene identified latetly. In recent years, there has been a large number of research reports on the basic studies about PNAS-4 in cancer gene therapy and gene therapy of PNAS-4 alone or combined with chemotherapy or radiotherapy manifested a good application prospect, but its molecular mechanisms to promote apoptosis is not clear yet. In this paper, recent research about PNAS-4 in cancer gene therapy is briefly reviewed, and recent hypotheses on its molecular mechanisms to promote apoptosis are especially elucidated. Based on its newly identified characteristics of structural domain, we made a point that PNAS-4 might regulate functions of some target protein related to apoptosis by deSumoylation as a new deSumoylating isopeptidase, and consequently promote apoptosis.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the risk factors of the Catheter-Related Blood Stream Infection(CRBSI) in the intensive care unit(ICU),and to approach effective methods for preventing the CRBSI in ICU.METHODS With the method of objective investigation,all patients in ICU from Jan,2008 to Dec,2008 were studied.The risk factors of CRBSI were investigated.RESULTS 257 patients entered the study.A total of 147 cases suffered from the nosocomial infection(NI).The incidence rate of the NI was 57.2%.Among these,36 cases were dignosised of the CRBSI,and the case-infection rate was 14.07%.The number of CRBSI account for 24.49% of the patients who suffered from the NI.The nosocomial infection rate perday the CRBSI was 16.57‰.It was significantly higher than that of the general wards′.The pathogen detection showed the main pathogen was the G+ bacteria,accounting for 54.04%.Then was the G-bacteria,accounting for 37.84%.The fungus accounted for 8.11%.11 unusual drug resistance bacteria were found(6 ESBLs positive bacteria and 5 MRS bacteria).CONCLUSIONS The incidence of the CRBSI is related to the following reasons: days and the sites of the catheter being placed,the procedure the medical personnel done,the immune function of the patients,and the utilization or unutilization of the high-nutrition drugs through the vein.According to these reasons,strict aseptic technique,reasonable choice of the catheter site,shortening the duration the catheter insertion,and maintaining catheter unobstructed are the keys to prevent the incidence of the CRBSI.

?AlM: To analyze the quantitative changes of anterior segment by Pentacam anterior segment system and to evaluate the safety and effectiveness after implantable collamer lens ( lCL) implantation for high myopia.
?METHODS:Twenty- one patients with 39 eyes were implanted lCL in our hospital from September 2011 to February 2013. The follow-up was 6 ~ 12mo. Central anterior chamber depth ( ACD ) , anterior chamber angle ( ACA) , anterior chamber volume ( ACV) were measured by Pentacam preoperatively, 1wk, 1 and 6mo postoperatively. The distance between crystal lens and lOL ( lCL- vault ) were measured at 1wk, 1 and 6mo postoperatively. Preoperative uncollected visual activity ( pre - UCVA ) , best corrected visual acuity ( BCVA ) , postoperative uncorrected visual acuity ( post-UCVA) and intraocular pressure ( lOP) were recorded. The paired t-test was used to access the data preoperatively and postoperatively in the statistical way by using SPSS 18. 0 statistical software.
? RESULTS: Preoperatively, at 1wk, 1 and 6mo postoperatively, ACD were 3. 27±0. 22, 3. 02±0. 33, 2. 98±0. 31, and 2. 98±0. 32mm. ACA were (40. 39±5. 40)o, (26. 70±4. 47)o, (26. 96±4. 48)o, and (26. 95±4. 45)o. ACV were 207. 74±25. 43, 122. 87±17. 58, 128. 05±17. 84, and 128. 64±17. 50mm3 , respectively. There were statistically significant differences between preoperative and postoperative data in ACD, ACA, ACV (P<0. 05). The distances between crystal lens and lOL ( lCL-vault) were 0. 49±0. 13, 0. 46±0. 13, and 0. 46±0. 14 at 1wk, 1 and 6mo postoperatively. There were statistically significant difference between 1wk and the others (P<0. 05). There were statistically significant different between the preoperative BCVA and postoperative BCVA(P<0. 05). There was no contact between lOL and the crystal len. The anterior chamber angle was all open. There were no serious complications such as cataract, glaucoma, cystoid macular edema, retinal detachment, etc.
?CONCLUSlON:ACD, ACA, ACV by Pentacam anterior segment system are found to be decreased after the operation, but there is still a relative safe distance between lOL and the crystal len. lCL implantation is a safe, efficacy method in correcting high myopia, but the long-term effects will require further observation.

Objective To understand the types and risk factors of human papillomavirus (HPV ) infection among the patients with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia in Chongqing to provide a scientific basis for prevention and treatment of cervical cancer . Methods The patients with TCT screening in many hospital of Chongqing from June 2012 to December 2013 were selected and performed the HPV typing ,9 328 cases succeeded in HPV typing .The main types of HPV infection in different grades of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia were statistically analyzed for determining the risk factors .Results HPV16 was the most common infection type among patients with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia in Chongqing area ,followed by HPV52 ,58 ,33 ,18 .Some factors such as multiple sex partners ,young female with sexual debut and induced abortion were the risk factors of HPV infection .Conclusion Single and high-risk type is the main feature of HPV infection among the patients with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia in Chongqing .The infection rate is higher with the higher grade of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia .Publicity and education for risk factors of HPV infection should be strengthened ,which will help to prevent the occurrence of cervical cancer .

Objective To explore the drainage effect of drainage tube with different materials on the basis of a constant nega tive pressure drainage,and its impact on flap survival.Methods The most common clinical used Polyvinyl chloride resin (PVC)pipe,latex tubes,silicone tube drainage tubes,and flaps were compared at different phases of the drainage,to determine the best clinical flap with drainage material.After three groups of flaps were designed,including a constant negative pressure drainage device,without a constant negative pressure drainage system,and drainage alone (no negative pressure) drainage flap,the flap survival was observed at different phase space.Three different drainage drainage ways of the flap and the flap survival area of effect were statistically analyzed.Results The silicone tube drainage was more fully and effectively.Constant negative pressure drainage volume of liquid was up to the flap with drainage to the fullest,the highest rate of skin flap healing,and better healing.Conclusions The constant negative pressure in the drainage of the flap makes drainage more fully,and promotes rapid healing of wounds,while the silicone tube is suitable for flap drainage.

The efficiency of conservative treatment for cervical radiculopathy was retrospectively reviewed. Eighty-one patients were included; 40 patients presented with C7, 37 with C6, 2 with C5, and 2 with C8 radiculopathy. Seventy-eight patients underwent MRI examination prior to treatment, showing intervertebral disc protrusion in 71 cases, and spinal stenosis in 7. Eighty-one patients underwent a treatment wearing a cervical collar and home-based halter cervical traction: 5-6 kg for 20 minutes, once a day for 3 to 6 weeks. The mean duration of symptoms prior to neurosurgical evaluation was (43.0?8.3) days. Sixty-three (78%) of 81 patients responded to therapeutic traction, experiencing significant or total pain relief, three could not tolerate the traction, and traction failed in 15 patients. Three (1.89%) of the 63 patients undergoing traction treatment suffered recurrence of symptoms and required surgery.
