microRNA (miRNA) is a kind of 18 to 25 nucleotide non coding RNAs,which plays an important role in various ways.The abnormal miRNA expression patterns lead to many diseases of hematopoietic system.Myelodysplasitc syndromes (MDS) comprise a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by ineffective hematopoiesis,bone marrow dysplasia and variable propensity of transformation to acute myeloid leukemia (AML).20 ％-30 ％ MDS patients may progress to AML.miRNA plays a key role in the develpoment,advance and prognosis of MDS.In this paper,the related miRNAs in the transformation from MDS into AML were reviewed.

Objective To investigate the significance and possible mechanism of food intolerance in diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D).Methods Twenty-seven IBS-D patients matched the Rome Ⅲ criteria were selected as IBS-D group.Twenty-seven healthy individuals without gastrointestinal symptoms were assigned to control group.Food intolerance situation of two groups were analyzed with food intolerance status evaluation questionnaire,and detection of 14 food specific IgG antibody.The severity of IBS symptoms of IBS-D group were scored by IBS-symptom severity scale (SSS).Two pieces of mucosal tissues of both ileocecal junction and sigmoid colon were obtained under colonoscopy.The content of mucosal substance P (SP) was determined by immunohistochemistry.The quantity of mast cells were detected by Giemsa staining.Chi square test and Fisher exact probability method were performed for rate comparison between two groups.Measurement data were compared with t test and Mann-Whitney rank sum test.The correlation between IBS-SSS score and mast cells and the expression of SP positive cells were analyzed by Spearman rank correlation analysis.Results There was no statistically significant difference in positive rates of food specific IgG between two groups (x2 =3.085,P=0.389),however according to food intolerance status evaluation questionnaire,the incidence of food intolerance of IBS-D group was 44.4 ％ (12/27) which was higher than that of control group (14.8 ％,4/ 27),the difference was statistically (x2 =5.684,P=0.017).Food intolerance severity index of IBS-D group (median:0(0,60)) was higher than that of control group (median:0(0,0)),and the difference was statistically significant (U=239.50,P =0.007).In foods that may cause intolerance,the percentage of foods rich in fermentable oligosaccharides and monosaccharides,disaccharides and polyol (FODMAP) such as milk,noodles,soybeans was up to 71.4％ (30/42).The expression tates of SP positive cells in the mucosa of ileocecal junction and sigmoid colon of patients with IBS-D were higher than those of the control group (x2-20.735 and 22.071,both P＜0.01).The numbers of mast cell in the mucosa of ileocecal junction and sigmoid colonic of patients with IBS D (2.40 ± 1.04/high power field (HPF) and 2.35±1.11/HPF) were more than those of the control group (0.97 ± 0.70/HPF and 0.89 ± 0.72/HPF),and the difference was statistically significant (t=-5.850 and-5.629,both P＜0.01).The severity of bowel symptom of patients with IBS-D was moderately correlated with the number of mast cells in the mucosa of sigmoid colon (r=0.576,P=0.002),and was moderately correlated with the expression of SP positive cells (r=0.691,P＜0.01).Conclusions There may be relation ship among low-grade inflammation of intestinal mucosa,food intolerance and severity of intestinal symptoms in patients with IBS-D.

Objective To investigate the eomman causes of premature delivery,the tocolytic effect and suc-cess ratio and the birth situation of premature infants. Methods 150 pregnant women with natural delivery or iatro-genie preterm labor from 28 weeks to 34 weeks who carried out tocolytic therapy because of threatened preterm labor or premature delivery after tocolytic therapy were selected. The common inducement of premature delivery, the pro-longed gestational weeks, the success ratio of tocolyis and the birth situation of premature infants were retrospectively analyzed. Results The premature rupture of membranes(PROM) ,the spontaneous uterine contraction and iatrogenic preterm labor were the main reasons of premature labor. The primiparas are the majority. The iatrogenic partus pre-maturus were prolonged, the asphyxia rate of premature infants was still high. The incidence of premature rupture of fe-tal menbranes in pregnant with tocolytic therapy beyond 1 week was 3. 3% ,and the incidence of spontaneous urerine contraction was 4. 8%. Conclusion Antenatal care and prenatal diagnosis are important to decrease the premature labor ratio as early as possible to use the D. X. M to promote the fetal lung maturity, so as not to delay the treatment.

A realizaton project of electrical stimulator aimed at motor dysfunction of stroke is proposed in this paper. Based on neurophysiological biofeedback, this system, using an ARM9 S3C2440 as the core processor, integrates collection and display of surface electromyography (sEMG) signal, as well as neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) into one system. By embedding Linux system, the project is able to use Qt/Embedded as a graphical interface design tool to accomplish the design of stroke rehabilitation apparatus. Experiments showed that this system worked well.

Purpose: To evaluate the effect and safety of combination chemotherapy with oxaliplatin( L-OHP) plus 5-fluorouracil(5-FU)/folinic acid( CF) in advanced colorectal cancer( ACRC). Methods: 31 patients with ACRC entered the study. L-OHP 130 mg/m2 , iv infusion for 4 hours on day 1; CF 200 mg/m2 , iv infusion for 2 hours followed by 5-FU 500mg/ m , iv infusion for 4 hours from day 1 to day 5, repeated every 3 weeks. Results: There were 10 partial responses, 7 stable disease, 9 progressive disease, the response rate being 38. 5% . The main adverse effect was neuro-sensory toxicity which was seen in 90. 3% of the patients. Vomitting and diarrhea was observed in 58. 1% and 45. 2% of the patients respectively. Bone marrow suppression was mild. Conclusions: L-OHP combination with 5-FU/CF yields an encouraging response with acceptable toxicity in our study. Furthermore clinical reseach is worthwhile.
