Objective To evaluate the outcomes and the prognostic factors for advanced squamous cervical cancer after concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT).Methods Totally 172 patients with International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage Ⅱ b-Ⅳ who were treated in Cancer Hospital,Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences between January 2007 and December 2008 were retrospectively analyzed.Patients were received external radiotherapy,high-dose rate brachytherapy and cisplatin-based chemotherapy concurrently.Results The median follow-up period was 54.5 months.The 2-year and 5-year overall survival (OS) were separately 81.5％ and 68.8％.The 2-year and 5-year progress-free survival (PFS) were separately 69.2％ and 63.1％.Using univariate analysis followed with multivariate analysis,the results showed that these clinicopathological factors including stage (Ⅲ and above versus Ⅱ b; P =0.021,HR =1.95 ; P =0.020,HR =1.86),maximum diameter of local tumor size (＞4 versus ≤4 cm; P =0.009,HR =2.55 ; P =0.033,HR =1.94),squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCC) level before treatment (＞3 versus ≤3 μg/L; P =0.010,HR =2.47; P =0.013,HR =2.09) and retroperitoneal lymph node status on imaging (para-aortic lymph node positive versus negative,P =0.009,HR =3.00,P=0.010,HR =2.74; pelvic lymph node positive only versus negative,P =0.044,HR =1.98,P =0.033,HR =1.92) had the significant effect on OS and PFS.Patients with no above adverse prognostic factor were assigned to Group A (n =18),those with one factor were assigned to Group B (n =43),and those with no less than two factors were assigned to Group C (n =1 11).Among three groups,the 2-year OS were separately 94.1％,97.7％ and 73.1％,the 5-year OS were separately 81.4％,90.1％ and 58.6％,the 2-year PFS were separately 88.2％,90.4％ and 57.9％,the 5-year PFS were 82.4％,87.9％ and 50.0％.The results showed that group C was significant difference from Group A or B in OS and PFS (all P ＜ 0.05),while Group A had no significant difference from Group B in OS and PFS (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Stage Ⅲ or above,maximum diameter of local tumor size ＞ 4 cm,SCC level ＞ 3 μg/L before treatment and positive retroperitoneal lymph nodes on imaging are four independent adverse factors for prognosis of squamous cervical cancer of advanced stage after CCRT.The treatment of patients with no less than two adverse factors should be considered to be improved.

BACKGROUND: Abnormal curvature of the cervical spine reflects in large measure the degenerative changes of the cervical vertebrae. OBJECTIVE: The effect of manipulative therapy has been recognized in restoring normal cervical curvature, and aimed to further probe into the effect of this therapy on blood flow velocity in the vertebrobasilar arteries of patients with cervical spondylosis. DESIGN: A non-randomized and controlled concomitant study. SETTING: Departments of Spinal Orthopaedics and General Sugery of a University hospital, and the Outpatient Department of Orthopaedic Institute of a college of Traditional Chinese Medicine. PARTICI PANTS: From January 1999 to December 2001, 60 patients with cervical spondylosis were treated in the Department of Spinal Orthopaedics in Ruikang Hospital, Third Department of Surgery, First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi College of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and Outpatient Clinic of Institute of Orthopaedics, Guangxi College of Traditional Chinese Medicine. The patients were divided into spondylosis group with abnormal curvature(30 cases) and spondylosis group without normal curvature(30 cases) . Thirty healthy subjects were also included to serve as the control group.METHODS: Manipulation was applied in these patients and the cervical curvature and blood flow velocity in the left vertebral artery (LVA) and right vertebral artery(RVA) as well as in the basilar artery(BA) were measured before and after the treatment for comparison. The correlation coefficients between them were also calculated.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① The cervical curvature before and after manipulation in spondylosis group and control group; ② The blood flow velocity in maximal systolic phase and end-diastolic phase in the specified arteries.RESULTS: The blood flow velocity in maximal systolic phase and end-diastolic phase decreased in LVA, RVA and BA in patients with abnormal cervical curvature, whose blood velocities in maximal systolic phase in these arteries was less than those in control subjects and patients with normal curvature ( P ＜ 0.05). After manipulation, the velocity in these arteries in creased apparently in patients with abnormal curvature. The changes in systolic velocity in LVA and systolic in BA were correlated to the curvature before manipulation, and after that, the maximal systolic velocity in LVA,maximal systolic velocity in RVA and BA were all related to the changes of the cervical curvature. CONCLUSION: Abnormal cervical curvature is the anatomical basis for abnormalities of the vertebrobasilar arteries. Manipulative therapy can restore the cervical curve and blood flow velocity in these arteries.

From June 2008 to December 2012,video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS group) was performed for 24 cases of thymoma.Their operative procedures,postoperative complications,remission of myasthenia gravis (MG),perioperative mortality and oncological outcomes were compared with 19 cases of trans-sternal open thymectomy (OT group).Compared with OT group,VATS group had significantly shorter operation duration,less blood loss,shorter postoperative hospital stay,shorter chest tube duration and less chest drainage amount (P ＜ 0.05).The total rate of postoperative complications of VATS group was 4％ (1/24) and it was less than OT group (4/19) without significant difference (P ＞0.05).The effective remission rate of thymomatous MG was 7/9 in VATS group and it was similar to that in OT group (6/8,P ＞ 0.05).VATS group had a recurrent or metastatic rate of 0％ (0/23) and it was better than OT group with 1/17.And there was no significant inter-group difference (P ＞ 0.05).The total survival rate of VATS group was 100％ and it was similar to that of OT group (16/17,P ＞ 0.05).Thoracoscopic thymectomy is safe,feasible,efficacious and mini-invasive for thymoma.With fewer complications and a quicker recovery,it has similar short-term outcomes to conventional open thymectomy.

BACKGROUND: In recent years, ultrasound microbubble gene transfer system has been applied for gene transfection in many parts of the body, but it has been seldom reported to be used for gene transfection in bone parts. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the efficiency and feasibility of ultrasound-targeted microbubble destruction applied for transfection of enhanced green fluorescent protein plasmid into the femoral head of rabbits.METHODS: Japanese big-ear rabbits were randomly divided into five groups: bare transfection, pre-irradiation + bare transfection, ultrasound transfection, pre-irradiation+ultrasound transfection, and repeatable transfection. In the first two groups, ultrasound-targeted gene transfection and irradiation was not used, but in the latter three groups, ultrasound-targeted microbubble destruction was used to transfect enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) plasmid into the femoral head of rabbits. At 1 week after transfection, EGFP expression in femoral head was observed under the fluorescence microscope. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: EGFP expression appeared in the ultrasound transfection, pre-irradiation + ultrasound transfection and repeatable transfection. The transfection efficiency of EGFP plasmid was significantly higher in the repeatable transfection group than in the other groups (P < 0.01). Obvious injury loci were not observed in the soft tissue and bone tissue slices of ultrasonic irradiation parts in the ultrasound transfection, pre-irradiation + ultrasound transfection and repeatable transfection groups. These results confirm that ultrasound-targeted microbubble destruction is a safe and effective method to transfect EGFP plasmid into the femoral head of rabbits.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the influence of the change of cervical curvature on the nerve root and the vertebral artery of the patients with cervical spondylosis and the curative effect of therapeutic manipulations. METHODS: Sixty cases of cervical spondylosis with the change of cervical curvature, 60 cases of cervical spondylosis without the change of cervical curvature and 60 normal people were chosen. They were clinically observed and the cervical spondylosis was treated by manipulations and the data was processed according to the principle of statistics. RESULTS: The change of cervical curvature affected the nerve root and the vertebral artery and therapeutic manipulations produced a satisfactory curative effect. CONCLUSION: Cervical spondylosis with change of cervical curvature has special characteristics in the etiology, course and state of the disease. The change of cervical curvature produces an effect on the nerve root and the vertebral artery. Selected therapeutic manipulations produce a better curative effect.

Objective To investigate the effects of Pseudomonas aeruginosa vaccine (PA) on proliferation and invasiveness of the hepatocellular carcinoma cell line MHCC97L with metastatic potential. Methods Proliferation, growth curve, plate efficiency, flow cytometry, transwell invasion assay, cell motility assay, scarification test, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP2) protein activity were evaluated after cells were treated with PA at various concentrations. Results PA can inhibit the proliferation and plate efficiency of MHCC97L cell markedly in a dose-dependent manner. The IC50 of cells treated with PA for 48 h and 72 h was 3.1 ×108/ml and 1.9 × 108/ml, respectively. The doubling time increased and plate efficiency decreased gradually when cells treated with 0.5 × 108/ml, 1 × 108/ml and 2 × 108/ml PA (P＜0.01). PA could induce cell cycle arrest at the G1 phase in a dose-dependent manner by flow cytometric analysis. The average amount of invading cell per field in cell invasion assay and motility assay were 4. 8 ± 1.3 and 8. 8±2.2 when cells treated with 1× 108/ml PA, which was significantly lower than that of control group (8. 6±2. 1 and 15. 6±1.2 ) (P＜0.01) Scarification test showed that the metastatic ability of cells treated with 1 × 108/ml PA significantly lower than that in the control group. Comparison between cells treated with 1 × 108/ml PA and control group, no remarkable difference was found regarding expression of VEGF and MMP2 in supernatant of cell culture. Conclusion PA can inhibit proliferation and plate efficiency of HCC cell line MHCC97L, which is in part mediated by the cell cycle arrest at the G1 phase. PA could inhibit invasiveness of HCC cell line MHCC97L, which is unrelated to the VEGF and MMP2 protein activity.

Objective To investigate the error monitoring function damages on the patients with schizo?phrenia ( SCH) . Methods A total of 32 patients with schizophrenia were compared with matched 34 health con?trols ( HC) on the error monitoring tasks which were compiled by E?Prime. Results The comparison between SCH group ((713.22±174.52)ms,( 491.14±170.29) ms,( 1060.31±130.84) ms,(8.28±12.55)time,( 8.00± 7.53)time respectively) and HC group ((560.73±156.94) ms,(395.62±188.03) ms,(989.85±104.33) ms, (2.97±4.13) times,(3.12±6.50) times) on the reaction time of choice,assessment,incongruent condition,the numbers of uncertain and the numbers of dropout were significant ( t=-3.737, P=0.000;t=-2.159, P=0.035;t=-2.426, P=0.018;t=-2.282, P=0.022;t=-2.824, P=0.006) . The SCH group and HC group did not signifi?cantly difference in Full Correct((124.72±23.74)/(131.74±21.96)times),Full Error((15.69±17.64)/(13.35± 18.63)times),Part Correct((6.83±10.40)/(4.21±7.03)times),Part Error((2.91±10.91)/(0.62±1.10)times) and Accuracy((0.831±0.161)/(0.874±0.159))(P>0.05).There was no significantly correlation among the course of disease,HAMA,HAMD and the error monitoring. Conclusion These results demonstrate that the error monitoring function damages on the patient with SCH may be involved in the dysfunction of anterior cingulate cortex.
