microRNA(miR) in body fluids shows good stability and the change in its expression profile and level is associated with cancer and other diseases.Thus,circulating miR has been proposed to be an useful biomarker in diagnosis of the onset,prognosis and risk of diseases.Although great discoveries have been obtained on all aspects of miR,there are some shortcomings existing in the present studies,such as inconsistent specimens,diverse detection methods,lack of standardization on data analysis and other defects,resulting in poor reproducibility of data and inconsistent clinical conclusion,that make circulating miR difficult to be used in clinical laboratory testing.So lots of work is needed for us to implement,such as standardizing sample selection,improving detection reagents and methods,and normalizing test results before we can ultimately establish a fast,easy,low-cost detection of circulating miR in the clinical laboratory.

Objective To evaluate biomeehanic characteristics of lumbar spondylolysis and spondylolisthesis single vertebrae reduction fixation system (LSRF), and discuss its mechanism of reduction. Method Twenty-four adult isthmus lumbar vertebrae specimen were disconnected and fixed with LSRF, Hefti, Salib's method respectively, and the biomechanic characteristics of the fixation devices were tested. Isthmus of L5 in 4 adult spine specimen was destroyed under loading to produce the spondylolisthesis model, and reduction by LSRF. Result The LSRF has a good ability for reduction and its strength for reduction is 1.6, 2.7 times as high compared with the Hefti, Salib's methods respectively. The mechanism of reduction is that the LSRF used contacted point of lamina by lamina hook as the fulcrum, through the pedicle screw to pull the spondylolisthetic vertebrae, and reduce the anterior displacement of vertebrae. Conclusion LSRF gives rigid fixation and good reduction, and provides a new and effective method for lumbar spondylolysis and isthmic spondylolisthesis.

Substances that might potentially alter the measurable concentration of the analyte or alter the binding ability of detection antibody can lead to immunoassay interference. Endogenous interferences consist of autoantibodies, heterophiles antibodies, human anti-animal antibodies (HAAA) and some binding proteins. Lipidemia, cross-reactivity, pre-analytical variation, matrix and different detection equipments may also affect immunoassay. These interfering substances may cause falsely increased or decreased concentration in many analytes, including hormones, tumor markers, drugs, cardiac tropanin and microbial serology, thus it will affect the diagnosis of patients and the evaluation of therapeutic strategies Laboratorians and physicians should both be aware of the potential interference in immunoassays and communicate closely when any clinical discordance between the clinical and the laboratory data appears, avoiding a subsequent wrong diagnosis and unwarranted treatment. In this case, an alternative assay or measurement is needed for the potential correct results.

A wide range of uncomfortable symptoms are attributed to menopause.It is also during this time that women are at increasing risk of poor medical conditions such as osteoporosis,cancers and dementia.Most physicians pay attention to the proper selection of effective and reasonable therapeutic methods,unfortunately,no agreement exists on the clinical recommendations and choice.The article reviewed hormone replacement therapy(HRT),common therapy and traditional medical therapy.

Objective To investigate CT and MRI manifestations of uveal melanoma as well as their diagnostic value.Methods 33 cases of uveal melanoma proved by operation and pathology were studied retrospectively.CT and MRI scanning were performed in 15 and 18 patients respectively.Results The round occupying lesions within eyeball were the characteristic imaging finding of uveal melanomas, most of them were found in the location of choroid membrane. These lesions appeared as homogenous density on CT and short T 1 and short T 2 intensity on MRI. MRI was superior to CT because it could provide more accurate information such as location, shape,extension,and differentiation of the complication (retina detachment) from lesion itself. The preoperation diagnostic accuracy of CT was 53% compared with that of 88% of MRI. Conclusion MRI is the optimal examination method in confirming suspected uveal melanoma.
