ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the association between polymorphism of Histone Deacetylase 2 (HDAC2) gene and alcohol use disorder (AUD) in male people of Han nationality for seeking suitable single nucleotide loci(SNP), and provide reference for early diagnosis and intervention of alcohol use disorder(AUD).Methods:A total of 194 male AUD patients of Han nationality (case group) and 310 normal men of Han nationality (control group) were selected for the study. The genomic DNA of peripheral blood of the subjects in the two groups was extracted, and 13 SNP loci of HDAC2 gene were obtained from HapMap database. The subjects in the two groups were genotyped by Agena MassARRAY SNP genotyping method.SPSS 25.0 was used to statistically analyze the differences of genotype frequency and allele frequency between the two groups, and Haploview 4.2 software was used for linkage disequilibrium and haploid analysis. The multiple test correction was carried out by the replacement test with 50 000 replacement times.Results:The genotype frequency of the 3 SNP loci(rs9481408, rs6568819, rs9488289) of HDAC2 gene were statistically significant different between the case group and the control group (all P<0.05). Further analysis found that the three loci were significantly correlated with AUD in the recessive genetic model between case group and control group(T/T vs C/C-C/T: OR=1.78, 95% CI: 1.05-3.03, P=0.033; T/T vs C/C-C/T: OR=1.79, 95% CI: 1.05-3.03, P=0.032; G/G vs C/C-C/G: OR=1.85, 95% CI: 1.09-3.13, P=0.022). Seven SNP haplotypes were constructed and the association odds ratio of GATCTGCAATAA between the case group and control group was 2.44, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The SNP loci rs9481408, rs6568819, rs9488289 in the HDAC2 gene and haplotype GATCTGCCAATAA are associate with AUD in male people of Han nationality. These results indicated that the HDAC2 gene is one of the susceptibility genes of AUD.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the change of plasma vitamin D, A and E levels in infant with infantile hepatitis syndrome (IHS) and to provide reliable basis for clinical treatment. Methods Seventy-three infant with IHS (IHS group) from January 2015 to May 2016 and 82 cases of physical examination infant (control group) were enrolled in this study.The levels of plasma vitamin D, A and E were tested and compared between two groups. Results The levels of vitamin D, A and E in IHS group were significantly lower than those in control group:(37.871 ± 20.111) nmol/L vs. (97.708 ± 28.827) nmol/L, (1.082 ± 0.657)μmol/L vs. (1.810 ± 0.517)μmol/L, (21.252 ± 7.596)μmol/L vs. (26.647 ± 6.495)μmol/L, P<0.01 or <0.05. The nutritional status of vitamin D, A and E in two groups had significant differences (P<0.01). Conclusions There have obvious deficiency in fat-soluble vitamin D, A and E in infant with HIS , and vitamin D deficiency is the most obvious. The levels of vitamin D, A and E are the dynamic monitoring indicators of treatment, nutritional status evaluation and long-term complications development.
ABSTRACT
This paper discusses project management of translational medicine in several important aspects:scientific planning,platform constructing,team building,process management,technology transfer,protection of intellectual property rights,supervision on ethics,and project funding system of the institutions.
ABSTRACT
In the process of scientific research management informationization,some critical questions are proposed.It is necessary to investigate comprehensively the information construction,and make a plan with overall point of view.Meanwhile,it is of importance to think highly of the standardization and practicability of information,keep good coordination and communication with all persons involved in the information construction,maintain and renew the information duly,draw the assistance from foreign technical support,and utilize the achievements of the informationization to improve the management.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the value of double-balloon endoscopy (DBE) and multi-slice CT enteroclysis (MSCTE) in diagnosis of Crohn's disease (CD) in small intestine. Methods DBE and MSCTE were performed in 71 patients with suspected Crohn's disease in small intestine. The two methods were compared in terms of diagnosis, extents of disease, existance of complications and activity of the disease according to the pathologic findings and the outcome of follow-up. Results The diagnostic yields of DBE and MSCTE were comparable with no significant difference (χ2=2.29, P> 0.05). The positive and negative likelihood ratios were 22.5 and 0. 022 in DBE respectively, and were 1.6 and 0. 240 in MSCTE respectively. The results of DBE was consistent with MSCTE in diagnosis of mild bowel stenosis, but was inconsistent with MSCTE in diagnosis of moderate-severe bowel stenosis (χ2=11.298, P=0.001). The concordance of two methods in diagnosis of disease activity was 95.8%. Conclusions The first choice in diagnosis of small bowel CD is DBE. The combination of two methods will be helpful in diagnosis and evaluation of CD severity.

ABSTRACT
It is important to protect the subjects'right of informed consent in biomedicine research.In this study,we focused on discussing how to protect the subjects' right of informed consent,including the perspectives of leg principles,the obligations of the researchers,the functions of Institutional Review Board,and the self-protection of subjects.
ABSTRACT
for the determination of aconitine, mesaconitine and hypaconitine in root tuber of sevral species of Aconitum plants and related proprietary medicines. With the use of the optimized instrumental conditions and the Multiple Reaction Monitoring (MRM) technique, good linearity was obtained for the alkaloids in concentrations ranged from 0.5 to 40 mg/L. The method was applied to the analysis of 14 samples of various species of Aconitum plants and 10 different proprietary medicine samples
