[Expressions of NLRP1 and NLRC4 inflammasomes in prostate cancer and their clinical value].

Objective: To explore the clinical value of the inflammasomes NLRP1 and NLRC4 in the diagnosis and treatment of PCa.

Methods: Using immunohistochemical staining, we detected the expressions of the inflammasomes NLRP1 and NLRC4 and the inflammatory cytokines IL-18 and IL-1β in 54 cases of BPH and 58 cases of PCa treated in Pinghu First People's Hospital from January 2022 to May 2022. We analyzed the characteristics of their expressions in the two groups of patients and the correlation of NLRP1 and NLRC4 expressions with tPSA, fPSA and Gleason scores in the PCa patients.

[Acid Mine Wasteland Reclamation by Buchen as a Potential Pioneer Plant].

Ecological reclamation is the major method for the revegetation of acid mine wasteland worldwide. In this study the pH, fertility characteristics, and heavy metal content of soils from Laili Mountain mine wasteland were analyzed. The research also studied the morphological characteristics and the heavy metal in Buchen as well as its resistance to acid, adaptability to soil fertility in abandoned land, and tolerance to heavy metal pollution (e.

[Efficacy of yindan xinnaotong soft capsule on cerebral infarction reconvalescents of static blood blocking collaterals syndrome: a randomized controlled study].

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Yindan Xinnaotong Soft Capsule (YXSC) on cerebral infarction (CI) reconvalescents of static blood blocking collaterals syndrome (SBBCS).

Methods: Totally 118 CI reconvalescents of SBBCS were randomly assigned to the test group (treated by YXSC) and the control group [treated by Naoxintong Capsule (NC)], 59 in each group. The therapeutic course for all was 12 weeks.

[Effects of low-level lead exposure on the neurobehavioral development of infants and early intervention].

Objective: To explore the effects of low-level lead exposure on infant's neurobehavioral development and evaluate the effects of early intervention.

Methods: The study population consisted of 276 infants whose blood lead, cadmium, iron, zinc, copper, magnesium and calcium concentrations were measured by atomic absorption spectroscopy and developmental status were assessed using the Gesell developmental Diagnosis scales (GDDS) at 6 months of age. All study subjects was divided into three groups: 58 infants in control group, 162 infants in low lead group and 56 infants in high lead group.

[Infection of cytomegalovirus and herpes simplex virus and morphology of the infected spermatogenic cells in infertile men].

Objective: To study the infection of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) and herpes simplex virus type II (HSV-I) and the morphological characteristics of the infected spermatogenic cells in the semen of infertile men.

Methods: We washed and concentrated the spermatogenic cells obtained from 83 semen samples of infertile men, extracted DNA and then screened HCMV and HSV-II by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Immunocytochemistry (ICC) was used to detect the expression of correlative virus antigens of the positive semen cells, and the cytology smear was employed to observe the morphological changes of the spermatogenic cells under the microscope after cytology staining.
