信息工作是决策的依据和先导,如何准确、及时、高效地收集、整理、分析灾难及突发事件信息、伤病员基本信息、救治信息等,已成为医院管理信息学的研究热点问题,也是医院在灾难和突发事件大量伤员信息管理中面临的难点问题。本文就灾难及突发事件住院信息管理系统研究现状及趋势进行综述。     

慢性充血性心力衰竭血浆血管活性水平及临床意义

目的:探讨慢性心力衰竭患者血浆B型利钠肽(BNP)、心钠素(ANF)、胱抑素C(CysC)的水平及临床意义。方法:选择70例CHF患者,按NA分级;20例健康者作为对照。采用放射免疫法检查BNP和ANF水平;采用免疫比浊法检查Cys C。比较不同心衰等级以及不同BNP水平的上述指标的变化。结果:CHF患者血浆BNP、ANF、CysC水平与对照比较显著升高(P<0.05),并随NYHA等级增高而升高(P<0.05)。与BNP<400pg/ml组比较,400pg/ml≤BNP<800pg/ml组和BNP≥800pg/ml组心力衰竭患者Cr、BUN水平显著增高(P<0.05);相反地,HDL水平显著降低。结论:血浆B型利钠肽(BNP)、心钠素(ANF)及胱抑素C参与了CHF的发生发展过程,联合测定其含量的变化,对CHF患者的诊断、评估及危险分层具有一定的临床意义。     

连续观察兔油酸ARDS模型稳定性及血L-1、IL-8近期变化

目的:探讨油酸(OA)构建兔急性呼吸窘迫综合征(ARDS)模型3天内的稳定性及血浆炎症因子IL-1、IL-8含量变化的意义。方法:健康新西兰大耳白兔30只随机分为5组,每组6只,实验组(n=24)耳缘静脉注射油酸(0.1mL/kg)建立ARDS模型,对照组(n=6)注射等量生理盐水。分别检测对照组6h和实验组6h、24h、48h、72h(n=6)动脉血PH值、PaO2、PaO2/FiO2、PaCO2、肺湿/干重比值(W/D),ELISA法检测血浆细胞因子IL-1、IL-8含量,HE染色观察肺组织病理学改变。结果:和对照组比较,实验组血中细胞因子IL-1在6h、24h组升高;细胞因子IL-8在6h组、24h组、48h组升高。6h组、24h组、48h组氧合指数<200mmHg。结论:兔油酸ARDS模型48h内稳定,炎性细胞和IL-1、IL-8可能是导致ARDS的发生和发展主要原因之一。     

MAGIC Tool: integrated microarray data analysis

Summary: Several programs are now available for analyzing thelarge datasets arising from cDNA microarray experiments. Mostprograms are expensive commercial packages or require expensivethird party software. Some are freely available to academicresearchers, but are limited to one operating system. MicroArrayGenome Imaging and Clustering Tool (MAGIC Tool) is an open sourceprogram that works on all major platforms, and takes users ‘fromtiff to gif’. Several unique features of MAGIC Tool areparticularly useful for research and teaching. Availability: http://www.bio.davidson.edu/MAGIC Contact: laheyer{at}davidson.edu     

Sex-specific selection on the human X chromosome?

Genes involved in major biological functions, such as reproductive or cognitive functions, are choice targets for natural selection. However, the extent to which these genes are affected by selective pressures remains undefined. The apparent clustering of these genes on sex chromosomes makes this genomic region an attractive model system to study the effects of evolutionary forces. In the present study, we analysed the genetic diversity of a X-linked microsatellite in 1410 X-chromosomes from 10 different human populations. Allelic frequency distributions revealed an unexpected discrepancy between the sexes. By evaluating the different scenarios that could have led to this pattern, we show that sex-specific selection on the tightly linked VCX gene could be the most likely cause of such a distortion.     

The genetic or mythical ancestry of descent groups: lessons from the Y chromosome

Traditional societies are often organized into descent groups called "lineages," "clans," and "tribes." Each of these descent groups claims to have a common ancestor, and this ancestry distinguishes the group's members from the rest of the population. To test the hypothesis of common ancestry within these groups, we compared ethnological and genetic data from five Central Asian populations. We show that, although people from the same lineage and clan share generally a recent common ancestor, no such common ancestry is observed at the tribal level. Thus, a tribe might be a conglomerate of clans who subsequently invented a mythical ancestor to strengthen group unity.

利用序列保守模体和局部构象信息预测转录因子结合位点

转录因子结合位点的计算预测是研究基因转录调控的重要环节,但常用的位置特异得分矩阵方法预测特异性偏低.通过深入分析结合位点的生物特征,提出了一种综合利用序列保守模体和局部构象信息的结合位点预测方法,以极大相关得分矩阵作为保守模体的描述模型,并根据二苷参数模型计算位点序列的局部构象,将两类信息得分组合为多维特征向量,在二次判别分析的框架下进行训练和滑动预测.预测过程中还引入了位置信息量以优化似然得分和过滤备选结果.针对大肠杆菌CRP和Fis结合位点数据的留一法测试结果表明,描述模型的改进和多种信息的融合能有效地改善预测方法的性能,大幅度提高特异性.     

中华蜜蜂化学感受蛋白基因Acer-CSP1克隆与表达特征分析

化学感受蛋白(chemosensory proteins, CSPs)是昆虫化学感受系统中重要的组成部分之一。本研究克隆了中华蜜蜂Apis cerana cerana化学感受蛋白基因Acer-CSP1, 其核苷酸全长351 bp （GenBank登录号为FJ157352）, 编码116个氨基酸残基, 预测蛋白分子量为13.85 kD, 等电点为4.89, 且含有4个保守的半胱氨酸残基, 均符合昆虫CSPs的一般特征, 且与意蜂CSP1基因具有99.1%的相似性, 与其他昆虫也有45.3%~68.0%的相似性。利用2^-ΔΔCt法及绝对定量法的real-time PCR技术对Acer-CSP1在中蜂不同器官表达特征进行了研究, 得出的一致结论为Acer-CSP1显著水平地高丰度表达于中华蜜蜂触角, 其次大量表达于头部。由于触角为中华蜜蜂最主要的嗅觉器官, 而头部则具有发达的感觉神经系统和味觉系统, 这也提示Acer-CSP1极有可能参与中华蜜蜂的嗅觉以及其他化学感受功能。     

实时荧光PCR结果的四维杂交的核酸技术分析

本研究采用四维杂交试剂,测定PCR产物的特征熔点温度(temperature of melting point,Tmp),对实时荧光定量PCR所获得阳性信号(特异性的或非特异性的)的结果进行分析和确认,以使检测结论更客观.将荧光探针模式的实时荧光PCR检测后的标本再进行熔解曲线温度扫描,然后在4℃冰箱冷却5min,向反应管加入1μL四维杂交液,再按照温度扫描程序做熔解曲线实验.结果显示,加四维杂交试剂之后的熔解曲线中信号峰值是收敛的,且信噪比增大.相同扩增产物的Tmp的误差是在±1℃之内.实验结果证明,四维杂交试剂对荧光探针模式实时荧光PCR结果可进行更精细的分析和确认.
