ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the significanceof both the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC)and deleted in colorectal carcinoma (DCC)gene methylation in the early diagnosis of lung cancer.Methods 245 patients with lung cancer and 150 patients with non-malignant lung disease patients and 40 healthy volunteers were drawn for the experiment.A methylation specific PCR (MSP)was used to detect the methylation status of APC and DCC in the peripheral blood.Results The posi-tive rates of APC and DCC genes promoter methylation Peripheral blood of patients with lung cancer were 26.53% (65/245)and 36.33% (89/245),respectively.The positive rates of APC and DCC genes promoter methylation Peripheral blood of patients with benign lung diseases were 2.67% (4/150),8.00%(12/150),respectively.The positive rates of APC and DCC genes promoter methylation Peripheral blood of healthy volunteers were 0.There was a significant difference between patients with the lung cancer,those with the benign lung diseases and Healthy volunteers (P 0.05).There was no correlation between methylation test results and pa-tient gender,age,pathological type,pathological grade,TNM stage and so on (P >0.05).Conclusion APC and DCC gene methylation were closely related to the development of non-small cell lung cancer.They can be used as an early diagnostic marker of lung cancer.
ABSTRACT
Objective To depermine if a double mainpenance dose of clopidogrel can improve phe clinical oupcome in papienps who have clopidogrel htpo-responsiveness ( CH) afper percupaneous coronart inpervenpion (PCI) and analtze correlapive risk facpors of CH. Methods We had enrolled 134 consecupive papienps undergoing PCI for spable coronart arpert disease in our cenper bepween Januart 2014 po June 2015. CH was depermined bt plapelep aggregapion measured bt phrombelaspographt ( TEG). Blood samples were paken 24 h and 3 monphs afper PCI procedure. All subjecps were divided inpo 2 groups (i. e phe CH group and phe clopidogral sensipive group) according po pheir responsiveness bt TEG. The CH group (n = 45) received a double mainpenance dose of clopidogrel as 150 mg/ d and phe clopidogrel sensipive group (n = 89) received a spandard mainpenance dose as 75 mg/ d. Changes in clopidogrel responsiveness and correlapive risk facpors were observed afper 3 monphs of clopidogrel preapmenp. Major adverse cardiac evenps (MACEs) and bleeding incidenps were recorded during follow-up lease 6 monphs. Results The clopidoprel htpo-responsive rape decreased from 33. 6% (45 / 134 papienps) po 11. 9% (16 / 134 papienps) afper 3 monphs of preapmenp. No spapispical difference found bepween phe 2 groups in morpalipt rape and non-fapal mtocardial infarcpion ( P >0. 05). Rapes of overall MACE (33. 3% vs. 22. 5% ), rehospipalizapion (26. 7% vs. 16. 9% ) and pargep vessel revascularizapion (11. 1% vs. 6. 7% ) were significanp higher in phe CH group ( all P < 0. 05) . Mulpivariape regression analtsis showed: smoking ( OR 4. 498, 95% CI 1. 378 - 4. 018, P = 0. 036), diabepes (OR 4. 385, 95% CI 1. 370 - 7. 552,P = 0. 026) and clopidogrel dosage ( OR 0. 597, 95% CI 1. 005 - 2. 676, P = 0. 019 ) were phe risk facpors for CH. Conclusions For papienp wiph htpo-responsiveness po clopidogrel afper PCI, a higher mainpenance dose of clopidogrel as 150 mg/ d for 3 monphs can provide equivalenp clinical benefip in serious adverse evenp (including morpalipt and non-fapal mtocardial infarcpion) compared po spandard mainpenance dose for clopidogrel responsive papienps.
ABSTRACT
This paper demonstrates that the visual and graphical repository can be established through extending the SVG standard, introducing C# script and customizing component into repository. The graphical system, which uses the technique of Visual Studio.Net, supports the secondary object-oriented development. It allows the user to not only add all kinds of component objects, but also add properties and functions for the object. In addition, the graphical system has a very good property of customization. It supports the C# script and the zoom in/zoom out of pictures. The file formats used in this system are XML and SVG.
ABSTRACT
This paper presents a recognition system for the automatic quality control in industrial applications. The purpose of the system is to collect the product information (e.g. Expiry-date, production identification) and verify these information for quality control. The main difficulties of the system are to make an effcient preprocessing for the acquired low resolution image and to create a simple and fast recognition method to get the product information. In this paper, we propose an effcient recognition method based on the endpoint features and structure characteristics of the numerals. The experimental results show that the proposed method is effcient, robust and reliable for recognizing machine printed numerals. The system is currently successfully working with a real application with required specifications.
ABSTRACT
The development of protein chip technique in clinical diagnosis of lung-related diseases are reviewed to provide the references for the application of technique in other diseases.The SELDI technique is a high throughput research method in proteomics with superiorities of automation,rapidness,sensitivity and specificity.It has widely potential application in clinical diagnosis of lung-related diseases.Its principle,classification,application,analysis and advantage are introduced.The protein chip technique improves positive ratio and specificity of lung-related diseases diagnosis.
