Objective To study the levels of interleukin(IL)-2 ,interferon-γ(IFN-γ) and IL-10 in peripheral blood and the effec-tive concentration of lactate dehydrogenase(LDH) in serum of patients with acute leukemia .Methods 65 patients with acute leuke-mia were divided into non-remission group(n=35) and remission group(n=30) .50 healthy volunteers were used as control group . The levels of IL-2 ,IFN-γ ,IL-10 in peripheral blood were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) .The effective concentration of LDH was measured by automatic biochemical analyzer .Results The levels of IL-2 ,IFN-γin non-remission group were significantly decreased compared with control group and remission group(P<0 .05) ,but the level of IL-10 in non-remission group was significantly increased compared with control group and remission group(P<0 .05) .The effective concentration of LDH in non-remission group was significantly higher than that in control group or remission group(P<0 .05) .Conclusion The levels of IL-2 ,IFN-γand IL-10 in peripheral blood and the effective concentration of LDH in serum of patients with acute leukemia have changed .Clinical detection of IL-2 ,IFN-γ,IL-10 and LDH may contribute to the early diagnosis of patients with acute leukemia .

This study aims to establish a method to determine the serum acetaminophen concentration based on diazo reaction, and apply it in the gastric emptying evaluation. Theoretically, acetaminophen could take hydrolysis reaction in hydrochloric acid solution to produce p-aminophenol, which could then take diazo reaction resulting in a product with special absorption peak at 312 nm. Then the serum acetaminophen concentration and recovery rate were calculated according to the standard curve drawn with absorbance at 312 nm. ICR mice were given a dose of acetaminophen (500 mg x kg(-1)) by gavage and the serum acetaminophen was dynamically measured through the diazo reaction. Besides, ICR mice were subcutaneously injected with the long-acting GLP-1 analog GW002 before the gavage of acetaminophen, and serum acetaminophen concentration was measured as above to study how GW002 could influence the gastric emptying. The data showed acetaminophen ranging from 0 to 160 μg x mL(-1) could take diazo reaction with excellent linear relationship, and the regression equation was y = 0.0181 x +0.0104, R2 = 0.9997. The serum acetaminophen was also measured with good linear relationship (y = 0.0045 x + 0.0462, R = 0.9982) and the recovery rate was 97.4%-116.7%. The serum concentration of acetaminophen reached peak at about 0.5 h after gavage, and then gradually decreased. GW002 could significantly lower the serum acetaminophen concentration and make the area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) decrease by 28.4%. In conclusion, a method for the determination of serum acetaminophen based on the diazo reaction was established with good accuracy and could be used in the evaluation of gastric emptying.

As a member of nuclear receptor superfamily, farnesoid X receptor (FXR) has been shown to regulate numerous metabolic pathways, which include playing an important role in bile acid metabolism, maintaining lipid and glucose homeostasis when FXR is activated. With the prevalence of the glucose and lipids disorder, FXR attracts increasing attention. It may be a potential target for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus and lipid disorders.

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum nitric oxide (NO) and bone metabolism in streptozotocin induced early diabetic (STZ DM) rats. Methods Twenty SD rats were divided into 2 groups, 12 STZ DM rats and 8 controls. Fasting blood glucose, HbA 1c , serum insulin, bone mineral density (BMD) (whole body, lumbar and femoral bone), bone metabolic parameters 〔such as serum calcium, vitamin D 3, parathyroid hormone (PTH), calcitonin, osteocalcin, and urinary pyridinoline/creatinine〕, as well as serum NO were measured. Results Compared with the controls, serum NO in STZ DM group significantly elevated 〔(51.3?11.9 vs 38.1?12.0)?mol/L, P

Objective To analyze the CT features of intestinal tumor obstruction, and explore its CT value.Methods CT manifestation and clinical materials of intestinal tumor obstruction proved by surgical findings or endoscopy biopsy in 35 cases were analyzed restrospectively, and compared with the results of surgery-pathology and endoscopy. Results CT findings were consistence with the results of surgery-pathology and endoscopy in 33 of 35 cases. The CT diagnostic accuracy of intestinal obstruction was 100%. And the accuracy of the cause was 94%, including colon carcinoma in 25, lyphoma in 5, gastrointestinal stromal tumor in 2, and lipoma in 3.Conclusion CT has unique advantage in examining intestinal tumor obstruction, not only for definiting the existence of the obstruction, but also locating the site of obstruction diagnosing the cause and chosing the appropriate treatment.

To investigate the effect of pancreatic elastase on diabetic nephropathy,104 cases of type Ⅱ diabetic patients were selected as control group and group treated with elastase separately for a course of 6 months.The results showed that pancreatic elastase reduced microproteinuria significantly,especially mi- croalbuminuria and microtransfer rrinuria which reflect the glomerular filtration rate.It was concluded that elastase could improve early diabetic nephropathy and might have some protective effect as well.At the same time,elastase had some good effect on lipid and lipoprotein metabolism.
