Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the feasibility and safety of transcatheter tricuspid valve edge-to-edge repair guided by only transesophageal echocardiography (TEE). Methods: Patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation in Fuwai Yunnan Cardiovascular Hospital who met the inclusion criteria based on clinical and echocardiographic evaluationand underwent transcatheter tricuspid valve edge-to-edge repair between January 2022 and May 2023 were prospectively enrolled. The procedure was performed under general anesthesia with endotracheal intubation and solely guided by TEE. The patients underwent clinical evaluation, electrocardiogram and transthoracic echocardiography one month after the procedure. Results: A total of 22 patients (12 males and 10 females) were included, with an average age of (71.3±6.7) years. All 22 patients successfully underwent the transcatheter tricuspid valve edge-to-edge repair under TEE guidance, with an average of (1.5±0.6) clips implanted. Immediately after procedure, six patients had no or trace regurgitation, 15 patients had mild regurgitation, and one patient had moderate regurgitation. All 22 patients completed 30-day follow-up, with four patients having trace regurgitation, 17 patients having mild regurgitation, and one patient having moderate regurgitation. Echocardiographic measurements revealed that effective regurgitant orifice area, regurgitant volume, vena contracta width, and proximal isovelocity surface area radius significantly decreased after the procedure (all P<0.05). In addition, inferior vena cava width, right atrial volume, tricuspid annular diameter, and right ventricular end-diastolic diameter significantly improved (all P<0.05), but tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion and right ventricular fractional area change did not show significant differences compared with those before the procedure (both P>0.05). Conclusion: It has been preliminarily confirmed that transcatheter tricuspid valve edge-to-edge repair solely guided by TEE is feasible and safe, but requires more large-scale studies for further validation.

Abstract
Investigate the biofilm-forming ability and drug resistance of Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (HvKP) to provide scientific basis for the treatment of HvKP-infection. A total of 96 Klebsiella pneumoniae strains isolated from clinical infection specimens in Changsha Central Hospital from January to December in 2021 were retrospectively collected, and the clinical data of patients were collected. The string test preliminarily distinguished between HvKP and classic Klebsiella pneumoniae (CKP). The biofilm-forming ability of clinical strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae (KP) was determined by microplate method. The Vitek 2 Compact automatic microbial identification/drug sensitivity analysis system was used for bacterial identification and drug sensitivity test. The clinical data of patients, biofilm forming ability and drug resistance in the HvKP group and those in the CKP group were compared and analyzed. The results showed that a total of 20 strains of HvKP were isolated from 96 non-repetitive KP, and the detection rate was 20.8%. HvKP mainly come from respiratory specimens, up to 75.0%.The prevalence of hepatobiliary diseases and the infection rate of multiple sites in patients with HvKP infection were higher than those in patients with CKP infection, and the difference was statistically significant(χ2=5.184,7.488;P=0.023,0.006).There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of gender, age, ICU admission, hypertension, diabetes, coronary heart disease, lung disease, urinary system disease, central nervous system disease and laboratory test indexes (all P>0.05).17 (85.0%) strains of HvKP can form biofilm, including 2 strains with weak biofilm-forming ability (10.0%), 10 strains with moderate biofilm-forming ability (50.0%) and 5 strains with strong biofilm-forming ability (25.0%). Among the 76 CKP, 71 (93.4%) could form biofilm, including 13 (17.1%) with weak biofilm-forming ability, 30(39.5%) with moderate biofilm-forming ability and 28 (36.8%) with strong biofilm-forming ability. There was no significant difference in biofilm-forming ability between HvKP and CKP (χ2=1.470,P=0.225).The overall resistance rate of HvKP was not high, but a multi-resistant HvKP resistant to carbapenems was found. The detection rate of multi-resistant HvKP (5.0%) was lower than that of multi-resistant CKP (28.9%), and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=4.984, P=0.026).The resistance rate of HvKP to piperacillin/tazobactam, aztreonam, ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, ceftazidime, cefepime, tobramycin, minocycline, doxycycline, and compound sulfamethoxazole was lower than that of CKP, and the difference was statistically significant (all P<0.05). In conclusion, most of hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae can form biofilm in this study, but the difference of biofilm-forming ability is not obvious compared with classic Klebsiella pneumoniae. HvKP maintains high sensitivity to commonly used antibacterial drugs, but the drug resistance monitoring of the bacteria cannot be ignored.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate and compare the short-term efficacy of domestic mechanical-locked (Clip2Edge) and elastic self-locked (ValveClip) transcranial mitral valve edge-to-edge interventional repair (TEER) devices in the treatment of functional mitral regurgitant valves. Methods: In this retrospective non-randomized comparative study, patients underwent TEER procedure in Fuwai Yunnan Cardiovascular Disease Hospital from May 2022 to April 2023 for heart failure combined with moderate to severe or severe functional mitral valve were divided into Clip2Edge and ValveClip groups based on the TEER system used. Baseline, perioperative, and postoperative 30 d follow-up data were collected and compared between the two groups. The primary outcome was the success rate on the 30 d post operation, while secondary outcomes included immediate postoperative technical success rate and the incidence of all-cause mortality on the 30 d post operation, readmission rate of acute heart failure, cerebral infarction, severe bleeding, and other serious adverse events rates. Results: A total of 60 patients were enrolled, 34 patients were in the Clip2Edge group and 26 in the ValveClip group, mean age was (63.8±9.3) years, and 24 patients (40%) were female. There were no significant differences in baseline data of age, cardiac function, comorbidities, mitral regurgitation 4+(19(73%) vs. 29(85%)), the end-diastolic volume of left ventricle ((220.8±91.2) ml vs. (210.8±71.7) ml) between the two groups (all P>0.05). The technical success rate immediately after the procedure was 100%. There were no readmission of acute heart failure, death, cerebral infarction, severe bleeding, and other serious adverse events up to the 30 d follow-up. Device success rate was similar between the ValveClip group (24 cases (100%)) and the Clip2Edge group (27 cases (96%)) (P>0.05). Conclusion: Both types of novel domestic TEER devices are safe and feasible in treating patients with functional mitral regurgitation.

Abstract
Objective: Compare and analyze the results of the domestic Lanyi AH600 glycated hemoglobin analyzer and other different detection systems to understand the comparability of the detection results of different detectors, and establish the best cut point of Lanyi AH600 determination of haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) in the diagnosis of diabetes. Methods: Multi center cohort study was adopted. The clinical laboratory departments of 18 medical institutions independently collected test samples from their respective hospitals from March to April 2022, and independently completed comparative analysis of the evaluated instrument (Lanyi AH600) and the reference instrument HbA1c. The reference instruments include four different brands of glycosylated hemoglobin meters, including Arkray, Bio-Rad, DOSOH, and Huizhong. Scatter plot was used to calculate the correlation between the results of different detection systems, and the regression equation was calculated. The consistency analysis between the results of different detection systems was evaluated by Bland Altman method. Consistency judgment principles: (1) When the 95% limits of agreement (95% LoA) of the measurement difference was within 0.4% HbA1c and the measurement score was≥80 points, the comparison consistency was good; (2) When the measurement difference of 95% LoA exceeded 0.4% HbA1c, and the measurement score was≥80 points, the comparison consistency was relatively good; (3) The measurement score was less than 80 points, the comparison consistency was poor. The difference between the results of different detection systems was tested by paired sample T test or Wilcoxon paired sign rank sum test; The best cut-off point of diabetes was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC). Results: The correlation coefficient R2 of results between Lanyi AH600 and the reference instrument in 16 hospitals is≥0.99; The Bland Altman consistency analysis showed that the difference of 95% LoA in Nanjing Maternity and Child Health Care Hospital in Jiangsu Province (reference instrument: Arkray HA8180) was -0.486%-0.325%, and the measurement score was 94.6 points (473/500); The difference of 95% LoA in the Tibetan Traditional Medical Hospital of TAR (reference instrument: Bio-Rad Variant II) was -0.727%-0.612%, and the measurement score was 89.8 points; The difference of 95% LoA in the People's Hospital of Chongqing Liang Jiang New Area (reference instrument: Huizhong MQ-2000PT) was -0.231%-0.461%, and the measurement score was 96.6 points; The difference of 95% LoA in the Taihe Hospital of traditional Chinese Medicine in Anhui Province (reference instrument: Huizhong MQ-2000PT) was -0.469%-0.479%, and the measurement score was 91.9 points. The other 14 hospitals, Lanyi AH600, were compared with 4 reference instrument brands, the difference of 95% LoA was less than 0.4% HbA1c, and the scores were all greater than 95 points. The results of paired sample T test or Wilcoxon paired sign rank sum test showed that there was no statistically significant difference between Lanyi AH600 and the reference instrument Arkray HA8180 (Z=1.665,P=0.096), with no statistical difference. The mean difference between the measured values of the two instruments was 0.004%. The comparison data of Lanyi AH600 and the reference instrument of all other institutions had significant differences (all P<0.001), however, it was necessary to consider whether it was within the clinical acceptable range in combination with the results of the Bland-Altman consistency analysis. The ROC curve of HbA1c detected by Lanyi AH600 in 985 patients with diabetes and 3 423 patients with non-diabetes was analyzed, the area under curve (AUC) was 0.877, the standard error was 0.007, and the 95% confidence interval 95%CI was (0.864, 0.891), which was statistically significant (P<0.001). The maximum value of Youden index was 0.634, and the corresponding HbA1c cut point was 6.235%. The sensitivity and specificity of diabetes diagnosis were 76.2% and 87.2%, respectively. Conclusion: Among the hospitals and instruments currently included in this study, among these four hospitals included Nanjing Maternity and Child Health Care Hospital in Jiangsu Province (reference instrument: Arkray HA8180), Tibetan Traditional Medical Hospital of TAR (reference instrument: Bio-Rad Variant Ⅱ), the People's Hospital of Chongqing Liang Jiang New Area (reference instrument: Huizhong MQ-2000PT), and the Taihe Hospital of traditional Chinese Medicine in Anhui Province (reference instrument: Huizhong MQ-2000PT), the comparison between Lanyi AH600 and the reference instruments showed relatively good consistency, while the other 14 hospitals involved four different brands of reference instruments: Arkray, Bio-Rad, DOSOH, and Huizhong, Lanyi AH600 had good consistency with its comparison. The best cut point of the domestic Lanyi AH600 for detecting HbA1c in the diagnosis of diabetes is 6.235%.

Abstract
Objective: To understand the spatial-temporal distribution and spatial clusters of measles cases in China. Methods: Measles incidence data was collected from the National Notifiable Disease Reporting System of Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention. The global and local spatial autocorrelation analyses were conducted by using software ArcGIS 10.2 and spatial-temporal scan was conducted by using software SaTScan 9.6. Results: A total of 1 012 537 cases of measles were reported in China from 2001 to 2016 and the annual incidence showed a sharp downward trend. There was global spatial clustering of measles cases during 2001-2004, 2005-2008, and 2009-2012, and their Moran's I coefficients were 0.29, 0.26, and 0.31, respectively. The results of local spatial autocorrelation analysis showed that there were high- high clustering areas of measles at all time periods, especially in western China. Guangdong province was detected as a separate high-low scattered area from 2005 to 2008 and no low-low clustering area was detected. The spatial-temporal scan statistics showed that there was a wide clustering area covering western, central and northern China, and Shanxi province and Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region from 2001-2008. Conclusion: The incidence of measles in China has a certain clustering in both space and time during 2001-2016, the results provide evidence for the development of future strategy of measles prevention and control in China.

Abstract
Objective: To understand the pathogens and molecular-epidemiologic characteristics of viral meningo-encephalitis in Zhejiang province during 2002 to 2018. Methods: All the samples were collected from suspected patients admitted to the hospitals under the monitoring program. Of the total samples, 2 173 were cerebrospinal fluids while the other 455 were stool specimens. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples were subject to real-time qPCR for the detection of Human enterovirus (HEV), Mumps virus (MuV), Herpes simplex virus (HSV), Cytomegalovirus (CMV) and Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV). Stool sample were subject to real-time qPCR for HEV. ELISA was used to detect the IgM antibodies in CSF, in the 5 kinds of virus mentioned above. VP1 genes from all RNA-positive specimen were amplified, sequenced, for typing and for evolution analysis. Results: 871 (40.1%) of the 2 173 samples were detected as HEV nucleic acid positive during 2002 to 2018. 654 (38.1%) of the 1 718 CSF sample were HEV nucleic acid positive while 217 (47.7%) of the 455 stool sample were HEV nucleic acid positive. Among the total positive nucleic acid sample, 670 of them were VP1 sequence positive, including 5 HEV-A and 665 HEV-B. There were 23 HEV serotypes, including Coxsackievirus (CV) CVA4, CVA6, CVA9, CVA10, CVB1-5, Echovirus (EchoV; E) E3, E4, E6,E7, E9, E11, E14, E16, E18, E21, E25, E30, E33 and EV-71. The top three serotypes went to E30, E6 and CVB5. These three serotypes presented enhanced viral activity in every several years. 795 CSF samples were detected as virus nucleic acid positive, including 374 HEV, 6 MuV, 5 HSV and 5 CMV, from 2012 to 2015 and in 2018. 5 kinds of IgM antibodies were detected simultaneously in 368 CSF samples, including 2 HEV positive, 6 JEV positive and 1 MuV positive for 5 viruses, respectively. Except for EV-71, there were 517 EchoV and 152 CV viruses presented, with the ratio of 3.4∶1. These two kinds of viruses alternately changed for each predominant epidemic strains in every 3-5 years. Based on VP1, results from the phylogenetic tree showed that HEV from Zhejiang province clustered into HEV-A and HEV-B clades respectively. E30 developed both h and i sub-genotypes. Conclusions: HEV-B seemed the main pathogen for viral meningo-encephalitis in Zhejiang province. Ratio of positive detection on EchoV was significantly higher than that on CV. These two kinds of virus alternately presented changing tendency in every several years. Predominant epidemic strains E30, CVB5 and E6 were presenting enhanced viral activity, also in every several years. High correlation was found in both HEV viral activity from the surveillance sites and in time line of the viral meningo-encephalitis outbreaks.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the feasibility of intravoxel incoherent motion diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (IVIM-DWI MRI) in the evaluation of tumor vascular normalization in a mouse model of colorectal cancer induced by recombinant human endostatin (rhES). Methods: The CT26 colorectal cancer xenograft model of BALB/c mice were established and divided into rhES group and control group, with 20 mice in each group. The mice of rhES group were intravenously injected with rhES 5 mg·kg(-1)·d(-1) once daily for 12 days, while the mice of the control group were intravenously injected with the same volume of 0.9% saline. 5 mice of rhES group and control group were randomly selected to perform IVIM-DWI MRI as following times: before treatment and four, eight, twelve days after treatment. The parameters of IVIM-DWI were recorded, including true diffusion coefficient(D), pseudo-diffusion coefficient (D(*)) and perfusion fraction (f). Meanwhile, microvessel density (MVD), pericyte coverage and tumor perfusion in tumor tissues were detected by immunofluorescence, respectively. Results: The tumor volumes of control group and rhES group before treatment were (154.42±24.65) mm(3) and (174.24±28.27)mm(3,) respectively, without statistically significant difference (P=0.440). From day 2 to day 12 after treatment, the tumor volume of rhES group was significantly smaller than that of control group (all P<0.05). There were no statistical significances of D value between the rhES group and control group before and after treatment (all P>0.05). The D(*) values of the rhES group were (10.940±2.834)×10(-3)mm(2)/s and (12.940±2.801)×10(-3)mm(2)/s in day 4 and 8 after treatment respectively, significantly higher than (6.980±1.554)×10(-3)mm(2)/s and (7.898±1.603)×10(-3)mm(2)/s of control group (P<0.05). Moreover, compared with control group, the D(*) value of rhES group was significantly lower in day 12 (6.848±1.460)×10(-3)mm(2)/s vs (9.950±2.596)×10(-3)mm(2)/s, (P<0.05). The f value of rhES group in day 8 was (0.226±0.021)%, significantly higher than (0.178±0.016)% of control group (P<0.01). The MVD of rhES group was significantly lower than that of control group (P<0.05), while the pericyte coverage and tumor perfusion of rhES group were significantly higher than those of control group in day 4 and 8 after treatment (all P<0.05). In addition, we found D(*) value of IVIM-DWI in rhES group was significantly related with MVD, pericyte coverage and tumor perfusion (r=-0.354, r=0.555, r=0.559, all P<0.05). Meanwhile, the f value in rhES group was also significantly related with MVD, pericyte coverage and tumor perfusion (r=-0.391, r=0.538, r=0.315, all P<0.05). Conclusions: IVIM-DWI MRI can effectively evaluate the vascular normalization in rhES-induced CT26 colorectal tumor.The parameters D(*) and f are closely related to intratumorally microvessel density, pericyte coverage and perfusion, which can effectively monitor the occurrence of tumor vascular normalization time.

Abstract
Mycelia of Antrodia cinnamomea (AC), an edible fungus native to Taiwan, were produced by submerged fermentation with various fermentation times in 250 mL, 5 and 500 L fermentors and were evaluated for the effect of fermentation products on the viabilities of Hep3B and HepG2 hepatoma cells and normal primary rat hepatocytes. The results showed that the ethanolic extracts of AC mycelia (from 250 mL fermentation for 8 wk and 5 and 500 L fermentations for 4 wk) possessed high antihepatoma activity. The IC(50) of ethanolic extract of AC mycelia fermented for 8 wk in a 250 mL fermentor against Hep3B and HepG2 cells were 82.9 and 54.2 microg/mL, respectively. Furthermore, the IC(50) for Hep3B and HepG2, treated with ethanolic extract of AC mycelia fermented for 4 wk in the 5 L fermentor were 48.7 and 3.8 microg/mL, respectively. Those treated with ethanolic extract of AC mycelia fermented for 4 wk in the 500 L fermentor were 36.9 and 3.1 microg/mL, respectively. No adverse effects of all samples on normal primary rat hepatocytes were observed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The prognosis of a tooth affected by periodontitis may depend on the amount of bone remaining around the root surface. The aim of this study was to find how the surface area of a single root is related to the true thickness data and the calculated thickness data from digital dental radiographs. METHODS Eight extracted single-root teeth were digitized three-dimensionally for direct surface area measurement. Meanwhile, they were also exposed to a digital dental X-ray system. The true thickness of the tooth root was measured. The estimated circumference data were calculated from both the measured thickness and the thickness estimated from the digital image and then measured and estimated circumferences were compared. RESULTS (1) The largest circumference difference mean for measured thickness and for estimated thickness was -4.94% (+/-0.07%) and 23.02% (+/-1.12%) respectively. (2) The largest 95% confidence interval for difference means for measured thickness and for estimated thickness was (-2.82%, -1.87%) and (-5.42%, 2.22%), respectively. CONCLUSIONS When the thickness data are available, the surface area of a single-root tooth can be estimated to an error of less than 5%. Theoretically, the root thickness can be derived from the projected radiological image of the tooth. However, the error of estimated circumference from digital dental radiography may be over 20%. This error can be minimized if the estimated thickness from digital dental radiography can be made more accurate.

Abstract
During angiogenesis, microvascular endothelial cells (ECs) secrete proteinases that permit penetration of the vascular basement membrane as well as the interstitial extracellular matrix. This study tested the hypothesis that cathepsin S (Cat S) contributes to angiogenesis. Treatment of cultured ECs with inflammatory cytokines or angiogenic factors stimulated the expression of Cat S, whereas inhibition of Cat S activity reduced microtubule formation by impairing cell invasion. ECs from Cat S-deficient mice showed reduced collagenolytic activity and impaired invasion of collagens type I and IV. Cat S-deficient mice displayed defective microvessel development during wound repair. This abnormal angiogenesis occurred despite normal vascular endothelial growth factor and basic fibroblast growth factor levels, implying an essential role for extracellular matrix degradation by Cat S during microvessel formation. These results demonstrate a novel function of endothelium-derived Cat S in angiogenesis.

Abstract
The ability of beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD), sulfurbutylether-beta-CD (SBE-beta-CD) and hydroxypropyl-beta-CD (HP-beta-CD) to break the aggregate of the meso-Tetrakis (4-sulfonatophenyl) porphyrin (TPPS4) and to form 2:1 inclusion complexes has been studied by adsorption and fluorescence spectroscopy. The formation constants are calculated, respectively by fluoremetry, from which the inclusion capacity of different CDs is compared and the inclusion mechanism of charged-beta-CD (SBE-beta-CD) is quite different from that of parent beta-CD. At lower pH, the complexation between HP-beta-CD and H2TPPS(2+)4 (the form of the diprotonated TPPS4) hampers the continuous protonation of the pyrrole nitrogen of TPPS4 and the hydrophobic cavity may prefer to bind an apolar neutral porphyrin molecule. 1HNMR data support the inclusion conformation of the porphyrin-cyclodextrin supramolecular system, indicating the interaction of meso-phenyl groups of TPPS4 with the cavity of CDs. For this host-guest inclusion model, cyclodextrin, being regarded as the protein component, which acts as a carrier enveloping the active site of heme prosthetic group within its hydrophobic environment, provides a protective sheath for porphyrin, creating artificial analogues of heme-containing proteins. However, the TPPS4, encapsulated within this saccharide-coated barrier, its physico-chemical, photophysical and photochemical properties changed strongly.

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to observe dynamic morphological changes induced by ultraviolet (UV) irradiation in a cultured human lens epithelial cell line using electron microscopy, cell viability staining, time-lapsed videography and immunohistochemistry. Human lens epithelial cell line SRA 01-04 was cultured in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) containing 20% fetal bovine serum. Subconfluent cells were irradiated under a bank of UV lamps, which emitted 275-400 nm radiation with a maximum at 310 nm. The UV intensity was 20 microW cm(-2)at dosages from 0 to 10 mJ cm(-2). Alterations in the morphology of the living cells were monitored and recorded with phase-contrast microscopy and time-lapsed videography. At different times, the cells were fixed and examined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), diamidinophenolindole (DAPI) staining, and in situ immunohistochemistry using TdT-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling (TUNEL). Cell viability was also assessed with crystal violet staining. At low doses of UV exposure (2-5 mJ cm(-2)), time-lapsed videography revealed definitive cell death that appeared to be primarily apoptotic. The dead cell debris was engulfed and phagocytosed by neighboring living cells. Phase-contrast microscopy and TEM demonstrated that, at UV 10 mJ cm(-2), the cells not only showed typical apoptosis such as nuclear membrane shrinkage, chromatin condensation, and fragmentation into apoptotic bodies, but also necrosis such as swelling of the nucleus and cell body, and disruption of the plasma membrane. In support, DNA staining and in situ immunohistochemical reactions in the UV irradiated cells were both positive. The phagocytotic process was also seen with TEM. UV irradiation thus appears to cause both apoptosis and necrosis in the cultured human lens epithelial cell line. Active migration and phagocytosis of the cells appear to be stimulated by UV-induced damage. These findings may also aid in the understanding of UV injury and repair mechanisms of lens epithelial cells in vivo.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate whether exposure to hexavalent chromium induces lipid peroxidation in human. This study involved 25 chrome-plating factory workers and a reference group of 28 control subjects. The whole-blood and urinary chromium concentrations were determined by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrophotometry. Malondialdehyde (MDA), the product of lipid peroxidation, was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography, and the activities of protective enzymes were measured by ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry. In the chrome-plating workers, the mean concentrations of chromium in blood and urine were 5.98 microg/L and 5.25 microg/g creatinine, respectively; the mean concentrations of MDA in blood and urine were 1.7 micromol/L and 2.24 micromol/g creatinine. The concentrations of both chromium and MDA in blood and urine were significantly higher in the chromium-exposed workers. The activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GPX), and catalase (CAT) were not markedly different between control and exposed workers. Data suggest that MDA may be used as a biomarker for occupational chromium exposure. Antioxidant enzymic activities are not a suitable marker for chromium exposure.

Abstract
AIM To explore the relationship between different structures of tocopherol (Toc) and some phenol compounds and their anti-oxidative activities. METHODS Use the ab initio calculation of molecular mechanics and quantum chemistry. RESULTS The anti-oxidation of Toc was related to the ability to release active hydrogen, i.e., related to the O-H electron populations, frontier orbital energy (au), and the decreased amount of energy at the reaction ending stage. The order of hydroxyl O-H electron populations in different Toc model molecules were alpha < gamma < or = beta < delta, which was consistent with their anti-oxidation reported. CONCLUSION The molecular orbit (MO) theory and the quantum chemical parameters can be used to analyze the anti-oxidation of phenol compounds with different structures.

Abstract
Interactions between ciprofloxacin (CPFX), Mg2+, Mn2+ and DNA, and their polarographic and voltammetric behaviour were studied. In 0.1 mol.L-1 NH3-NH4Cl buffer solution (pH 9.2), a new reduction peak was obtained by linear-sweep voltammetry with Ep = -1.72 V(vs Ag/AgCl) when adding DNA to CPFX solution, which implies binding of CPFX with DNA. In the presence of Mg2+ or Mn2+, another new sensitive reduction peak, whose peak potential is more negative (Ep = -1.78 V), was obtained which suggested that Mg2+ or Mn2+ took part in the interaction between CPFX and DNA resulting in a ternary complex of CPFX-Mg-DNA. The peak current (ip) is proportional to the concentration of DNA over the range of 1.18 x 10(-4)-3.33 x 10(-4) mol.L-1. In this paper, the properties of the peak current were studied in detail, the result showed that the electrode reaction was irreversible and the ip was influenced by adsorption. The electrode reaction mechanism was also probed into. The CPFX molecule in the complex was reduced on the electrode. Furthermore, CPFX-Mg was shown ot be intercalated between the stacked base pairs of native DNA.

Abstract
15 cases, aged 4 to 14 years, experienced, a few days after a mild trauma, slight pain and limited motion of hip joint with the corresponding leg lengthened, a result of restrained adduction. Plane X-ray films of these hip joints showed nothing wrong, yet arthrography done on 4 cases and operative exploration in 1 patient found that a portion of synovium at the anteromedio-inferior part of the hip had been entrapped into the joint, on account of which the term entrapment of synovium of hip joint is coined. Under general anesthesia, gentle manipulation resulted in immediate relief in all hips but one, which failed to respond and then under went open operation, a very good chance of looking into the matter: a big portion of synovium incarcerated in the joint, the actual offender. There has been no recurrence found up to the time of writing. The pathogenesis and the related differential diagnosis have been discussed in detail.
