Methods: We illustrated the assistant decision-making support function of GIS with an example of the spatial decision support system for SARS controlling in Shaanxi province of China which was developed by us. Results: The spatial decision support system established by applying GIS technology fulfilled the needs of real-time collection and management and dissemination SARS information and of surveillance and analysis the epidemic situation of SARS. Conclusion: Occurrence and epidemic of diseases, implement prevention and intervention measures and collocation hygienic resources are all with the characteristic of the variation of time and space, therefore, GIS technology has become a powerful tool for identifying risk factors of diseases, providing clues of causation of diseases , evaluating the effects of intervention measures and drawing a health management plan.展开更多

METHODS:Sixteen patients with serum potassium concentrations greater than 4.0 mmol/L at the onset of anhepatic stage were randomized into two groups.The patients in control group (n=8) received no treatment, while those in treatment group (n=8) received an intravenous bolus injection of regular insulin (20U) 10 min into the anhepatic stage,followed by a glucose infusion (500mL 50g/L dextrose) over 15 min. RESULTS:In control group,potassium concentration underwent no changes whereas in treatment group,it decreased from 4.8±0.48 mmol/L to 4.19±0.55 mmol/L (mean±SD) within 15 min and to 3.62±0.45 mmol/L 60 min after the therapy.The potassium concentration was lower in treatment group than in control group within 30 min of treatment (3.94±0.57 vs 4.47±0.42 mmol/L, respectively;P<0.05),and increased similarly 30 s after graft reperfusion in both groups of patients,but remained lower in treatment group (5.81±2.78 vs 7.44±1.75 mmol/L, respectively;P<0.05).The potassium concentration returned to pre-reperfusion levels within 5 min after graft reperfusion. CONCLUSION:In patients undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation,the administration of insulin rapidly decreases serum potassium concentration even in the absence of the liver,suggesting an important contribution by extrahepatic tissues in insulin-stimulated uptake of potassium.展开更多

Two hybridoma monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) cell lines against the 3AB protein of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) were obtained, named C6 and E7 respectively. The mieroneutralization titer was 1:1024 for mAb C6, and 1:512 for E7. Both mAbs contain kappa light chains, and were of subclass IgG2b. In order to define the mAbs binding epitopes, the reactivity of these mAbs against FMDV were examined by indirect ELISA. The results showed that both mAbs can react with FMDV, but had no cross-reactivity with Swine Vesicular Disease (SVD) antigens. The titers in abdomen liquor were 1:5×10^6 for C6 and 1:2×10^6 for E7. In conclusion, the mAbs obtained from this study are specific for the detection of FMDV, can be used for etiological and immunological researches on FMDV, and have potential use in diagnosis and future vaccine designs.展开更多

Infection carries with it a mortality rate of up to 90% and currently there are no effective vaccines or therapeutics available to combat infection. However, the filovirus virus-like particles (VLP), which are currently under development, have been shown to be a promising vaccine candidate. They provide protection from infection in the mouse, guinea pig, and nonhuman primate models of infection, eliciting high anti-glycoprotein antibody titers and T cell responses to viral proteins. In this review, we will highlight the development of the filovirus VLP and describe the current understanding of VLP immunogenicity and correlates of protection.展开更多

This study investigated the expression of Elf-1 and Ki-67 in non-small-cell lung cancer(NSCLC) and studied their correlation with the clinicopathological features. Methods: Tissue microarray from 64 cases lung cancer tissue and 10 cases normal lung tissue was constructed, immunohistochemical method was used to evaluate the protein expressions of Elf-1 and Ki-67, correlations of the expression of Elf-1 and Ki-67 to clinicopathological features of NSCLC were analyzed. Results: Expression of Elf-1 and Ki-67 in NSCLC tissues were significantly higher than in normal lung tissues(P < 0.05), the positive rate of Elf-1 and Ki-67 was 73.44% and 64.06% in NSCLC group, Overexpression of Elf-1 in NSCLC was significantly related to histopathological grading, different clinical staging and the intensity of ELF-1 expression was significantly higher in the group with lymph node metastasis than that without(P < 0.05). Overexpression of Ki-67 was also closely related to tumor differentiation, clinical stages and lymph node metastasis(P < 0.05). In addition positive correlation was found between the expressive intensity of Elf-1 and Ki-67(τ = 0.295, P = 0.018). Conclusion: The high expression and positive correlation of Elf-1 and Ki-67 in NSCLC suggest that they probably play a role in onset and progression of lung cancer, united detecting their expression could be used as an valuable molecular biological index for predicting the malignant behavior and early diagnosis of NSCLC.展开更多

After transfection with p21WAF-1/CIPI gene, the expression of WAF-1 increased remarkably and steadily; the growth of U251MG cells were inhibited evidently. FACS examination showed G1 arrest. The average apoptosis rate was 25.2%. Conclusion: GE7 system has the ability to transfer exogenous gene to targeted cells efficiently, and expression of p21WAF-1/CIPI gene can induce apoptosis of glioma cell and inhibit its growth.展开更多
