Objective To establish and investigate C57 BL/6 mice model of radiation induced heart injury and ser-um marker. Methods Twenty eight female C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into 3 groups:normal group (n=4 ) , 18 Gy radiation therapy group ( n=12 ) , 25 Gy radiation therapy group ( n=12 ) . The mice were weighed every week. Respectively, 0, 8 and 16 weeks after irradiation, the pathological changes of myocardial tissue were observed by hemetoxylin-eosin( HE) staining and made pathological score. Inferior vena cava blood was collected to take cardiac troponin I ( cTnI) test. Results Compared with the normal group,the weight of radiation group went down first then went up slowly. The myocardial tissue from mice had obvious histopathological changes. Acute in-flammation was the main change in the early days. At the late stage, progressive fibrosis was the main characteris-tic. With the increase of the dose, the inflammatory reaction and fibrosis degree had aggravated, pathological chan-ges had occurred earlier. cTnI showed a trend of higher performance over time, and had a correlation with patholo-gy. Conclusion We successfully established radiation induced myocaridal injury model. As a noninvasive serum marker, cTnI can be used as the evaluation standard of radiation induced myocardial injury animal model.

A highly sensitive electrochemical deoxyribonucleic acid(DNA) biosensor based on multi-walled carbon nanotubes(MWNT)/Ag-TiO_2 composite film was developed. The solution containing Ag-TiO_2-MWNT composite was casted on the carbon paste electrode surface to form a robust film, which combine the advantages of the good biocompatibility of Ag-TiO_2 naocomposite and the fine conductivity, as well as the large active surface area of carbon nanotubes. The composite could greatly improve the immobilization capacity of the probe DNA. The morphologies and electrochemistry of the nanocomposite film were investigated by scanning electron microscopy and electrochemical techniques including electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry, respectively. DNA hybridization events were monitored by a label-free method of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. This label-free electrochemical impedance DNA biosensor showed high sensitivity and selectivity for phosphinothricin acetyltransferase gene sequence assay. The multicomponents films also displayed a high stability during repeated regeneration and hybridization process.

Objective:To explore the characteristic of parenting style and its relationship with self congruence in Tibet middle school students.Methods:Totally 1149 Tibet students in 2 middle schools were investigated by the Scale of EMBU (Egma Minnen av Bardndosnauppforstran)and SCCS (Self Consistency and Congruence Scale) from counties resided mainly by Tibet people.Results:The total average scores of Tibet students'self-congruence were lower than the median[(2.8 ± 0.3) < median 3].There was no significant difference between genders [(2.6 ±0.3)vs.(2.7 ±0.4),P >0.05],and the scores of self flexibility had statistical significant difference in gender [(2.9 ±0.5)vs.(2.8 ±0.5),P <0.05].The scores of parenting style in positive elements were negatively correlated with self congruence in Tibet middle school students (r =-0.20,P <0.01 ).Multi-linear regression showed that the element of maternal emotion and understanding had negative relevance with SCCS(β=-0.16,P <0.01),while the element of maternal rejection and denial had positive relevance with SCCS(β=0.16,P <0.01) .Conclusion:It indicates that the level of self-congruence is higher than median,and that parenting style might have a certain relationship with self congruence in Tibet middle school students.

Objective To study the relationship between the washout speed in the contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) and the differentiation grading in pathology in patients with hypervascular hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods Totally 271 patients who underwent complete resection for hypervascular HCC from April 2009 to December 2014 at Nanchong Central Hospital were included in this study.CEUS examinations were perfomred in all patients 2-3 days before liver resection.A timer on the ultrasound screen displayed the time elapsed since the saline flush was used to determine time to washout.The washout rate were categorized into four levels based on enhancement in portal venous phase and delayed phase.The differentiation grade and the washout speed were compared using Kruskal-Wallis test.Results All 271 (100％) lesions were arterially enhanced with different washout rate.Washout speed 1 was found in 19 patients (7.0％),while speed 2 in 157 patients (57.9％),speed 3 in 65 (24.0％),and speed 4 in 30,respectively.The washout speed had a significant correlation with the differentiation (x2=179.8238,P ＜ 0.001).The faster washout speed,the higher differentiated.Washout speed 1 could distinghuish well-differentiated from the poor and moderately differentiated tumor.The sensitivity and specificity of preoperative washout speed 1 to identify well histologic grade were 98.0％ and 77.8％,the positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 96.0％ and 48.8％,and the positive likelihood ratio and negative likelihood ratiowere were 1.9 and 0.01.Washout speed 4 could distinghuish poor differentiated from well and moderately differentiated tumor The sensitivity and specificity of preoperative washout speed 4 to identify poor histologic grade were 24.3％ and 97.0％,the positive predictive value and the negative predictive value were 65.3％ and 61.3％,and the positive likelihood ratio and negative likelihood ratiowere were 3.2 and 0.7.Conculsions Washout speed can reflect the degree of differentiation roughly.Washout speed can effectively diagnose the well-differentiated HCC,but it is difficult for moderate and poor differentiated HCC.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the association between Cystatin C levels change and the clinical outcomes of critically ill patients.METHODS: There were altogether 4642 patients in intensive care unit(ICU)of West China Hospital of Sichuan university from 28 th August 2009 to 16 th April 2010,and their general conditions were recorded,including sex,age,and being with or without diabetes mellitus;then the database was established accordingly.The patients were divided into four groups according to the change of Cys C values in ICU:high increase(>1 mg/L),slight increase(≤1 mg/L),high decrease(>1 mg/L)and slight decrease(≤1 mg/L).The difference in 30-day mortality in patients were compared.The patients were followed up for 8 years.RESULTS: One thousand and thirty-six patients were included in this study,272 cases died within 30 days,with the highest in patients of the group with high increase of Cystatin C(77.9%),followed the high-decrease group(33.3%);the mortality rate of group with slight decrease was the lowest among the four groups(16.5%).The 8-year survival of 764 patients who did not die within 30 days was 54.58%.CONCLUSION: The change of Cystatin C value is closely related to the 30-day mortality of critically ill patients.The lowest 30-day mortality of critically ill patients is the group with slight decrease of Cystatin C.

Objective To explore the therapeutic mechanism of kidney-reinforcing,blood-activating and phlegmresolving therapy for left ventricular fibrosis of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR).Methods Twenty SHR were randomly assigned to Chinese medicine group and model group.Additionally,ten Wistar-Kyoto(WKY) rats served as normal control group.After 12-week prevention,Masson staining method was used to measure the degree of fibrosis of left ventricular myocardial tissues,reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) was used to detect Smad3 mRNA expression,and Western blotting method was used for the detection of Smad3 protein expression.Results The degree of left ventricular fibrosis myocardial tissue in Chinese medicine group was milder than that in the model group,and Samd3 protein and mRNA expression levels in Chinese medicine group were lower than those in the model group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Kidney-reinforcing,blood-activating and phlegmresolving therapy can improve left ventricular fibrosis in SHR by inhibiting Smad3 expression.

Objective To evaluate the short-term and long-term effects in patients of carotid artery subtotal or complete occlusion after carotid endarterectomy ( CEA) using vascular ultrasound. Methods A total of 107 consecutive patients were diagnosed as carotid artery occlusive disease with DSA and treated with CEA at Beijing Xuanwu Hospital,Capital Medical University from January 2005 to January 2014 were enrolled retrospectively. Sixty-three of them had subtotal occlusion ( the carotid artery stenosis rate 95% to 99%) and 44 had complete occlusion. The occurrence of perioperative complications of all patients was documented. The follow-up study used outpatient follow-up and telephone tracking. The patients of surgical recanalization were followed up with ultrasound at 1 week, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months after procedure. The clinical prognosis, restenosis, vascular structure and hemodynamic changes of the patients after CEA were documented. Results (1) Of the 107 patients,86 (80. 4%) achieved recanalization after procedure and 21 (19. 6%) did not. The incidence of stroke and death was 4. 7% (5 cases) within 30 days after procedure,among them the incidence of subtotal occlusion group was 4. 8% ( n=3 cases) and the complete occlusion group was 4. 5% (2 cases). (2) Within one week after procedure,the peak systolic velocity ( PSV) ,end diastolic velocity ( EDV) ,and pulsatility index ( PI) of the ipsilateral middle cerebral artery in the recanalization patients increased significantly (120 ± 39 cm/s vs 60 ± 17 cm/s,50 ± 18 cm/s vs 33±11cm/s,and0.96±0.20vs0.67±0.14,respectively).Thereweresignificantdifferences(allP<0. 01). Carotid artery ultrasound showed that the local vessel diameters of the original lesions in the recanalization patients were widened as compared with preoperation (4. 4 ± 1. 1 and 3. 6 ± 1. 0 mm). There was significant difference (P<0. 01). (3) Sixty-nine patients with recanalization were followed up for 1 to 60 months( the median time was 12 months) . One to six months after procedure,the patency rate of the patients was 95. 6%(n=66),>6 to 12 months was 94. 2%(n=65),>12 to 24 months was 94. 2%(n=65),and more than 2 years was 91. 3%(n=63). Conclusion Vascular ultrasound can conduct short-term and long-term follow-up for carotid artery occlusive disease after CEA. The degree of blood flow improvement should be identified and restenosis should be found in time after procedure.

Objective To explore the difference of sleep quality and the influencing factors in ketamine dependent subjects and methamphetamine dependent subjects.Methods 60 ketamine dependent subjects and 60 methamphetamine dependent subjects with Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI),self-rating depression scale (SDS),self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) were tested.Results Methamphetamine dependent subjects was significantly more likely to elicit poor sleep quality than ketamine dependent subjects (P =0.022).The sleep quality of ketamine dependent subjects had a positive correlation with anxiety(P =0.015),depression(P =0.038),the onset age (P =0.029),and the dose of ketamine use in the last three months (P =0.048),while the sleep quality of methamphetamine dependent subjects had a positive correlation with the total time of ketamine use (P =0.038),anxiety (P =0.041),the dose of ketamine use in the last three months (P =0.011).Conclusion Methamphetamine dependent subjects are prone to a more serious poor sleep quality than ketamine dependent subjects.
