Objective To investigate the expressions of Livin protein and VEGF protein in bladder urothelial carcinoma(BUC) ,and theirs relationships with the clinicopathologic parameters of bladder urothelial carcinoma. Methods The expression of Livin and VEGF protein in 69 samples of BUC tissue and 10 samples of normal bladder epithelium tissue were detected by immunohistochemical SP method. Their relationships with clinicopathologic data were statistically analyzed. Results The positive expression rate of Livin and VEGF in BUC tissues were 65.2% (45/69) and 46.4% ( 32/69), but negative in normal bladder epithelium tissues, which showed significant differences in the comparison (Ps < 0. 05 ). We found significant difference in the comparison of Livin positive rate between groups with or without recurrence ( 78. 8 % vs 48. 1%, χ2 = 6. 13, P < 0. 05 ); but no differences in pathological grade,TNM stage and tumor number( Gl 55.6% ,G2 64. 3% ,G3 73.9% ;Ta ~ T1 61.9% ,T2 ~ T4 70. 4%; Single-tumor 59. 6%, multi-tumor 77.3%; χ2 = 1.52,0. 52,2.07, Ps > 0. 05 ). For BUC,the expression of VEGF was correlated with the pathological grade,TNM stage( Gl 16. 7% ,G2 53.6% ,G3 60. 9%, χ2 = 8. 91; Ta ~ T1 33.3%, T2 ~ T4 66. 7%; χ2 = 7. 34; Ps < 0. 05 ), but not the tumor number and recurrence( Single-tumor 57.4% , multi-tumor 59. 1%, χ2 = 0. 01; with recurrence 51.5% , without recurrence 40. 7% ,χ2= 0. 69; Ps > 0. 05 ). We found no relationship between the expression of Livin and VEGF (r =0. 056,P > 0. 05 ). Conclusion The overexpressions of Livin and VEGF protein may play an important role in the occurrence and development of BUC. Combind detection of these two protein can be used in the diagnosis and prognosis of BUC.

Purpose To study the application of MR diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) quantitative parameters in grading of cerebral glioma on a 3.0T scanner. Materials and Methods DTI mapping of 51 cases of cerebral glioma confirmed by pathology were retrospective analyzed. All the cases were divided into two groups: low-grade gliomas (grade I-II, 18 cases) and high-grade gliomas (grade III-IV, 33 cases). Value of fractional anisotropy (FA), mean diffusivity (MD), axial diffusivity (AD), radial diffusivity (RD),λ1, λ2, and λ3 of the tumor, peritumoral edema and contralateral tissue area were recorded and compared. Results rMDt, rADt, rRDt, λ1t, λ2t and λ3t of tumor in the low-grade glioma group were higher than those in the high-grade glioma group, and the difference was statistically significant (t=-3.235- -2.458, P<0.05). rFAt was lower in the low-grade glioma group, and the difference was not statistically significant (t=1.554, P>0.05). rFAe of peritumoral edema in the low-grade glioma group was higher than those in the high-grade group, while rMDe, rADe, rRDe, λ1e, λ2e and λ3e were lower in the low-grade group. All differences were not statistically significant except λ1e (t=2.052, P<0.05). ROC analysis showed the area under the curve (Az) of rMDt, rADt, rRDt, λ1t, λ2t, λ3t and λ1e were 0.746, 0.710, 0.762, 0.735, 0.722, 0.705 and 0.374, respectively. Az value of rMDt, rADt, rRDt,λ1t, λ2t, λ3t were statistically different between the low- and high-grade gliomas (Z=3.287-4.605, P<0.001). Conclusion Among DTI quantitative parameters on glioma grading, rMD, rAD, rRD, λ1, λ2, and λ3 of tumor area are helpful in grading gliomas.

Abstract: Objective To understand the epidemiological characteristics of the migratory bird population with hypertension in Hainan and to provide a basis for the health management of the migratory bird population. Methods One hundred and eighty migratory birds with hypertension who had lived in in the Mangrove Bay community of Chengmai, Hainan for 3 months or more were selected as the study population. Demographic data, including gender, age, ethnicity, occupation, medication use, family history of hypertension, hometown living environment, Hainan living environment (presence of water area and greenbelt around the residence, type of water area and greenbelt), smoking and alcohol consumption, and height and weight were collected by questionnaire and physical examination to investigate the epidemiological characteristics of the study subjects, and unconditional dichotomous logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors affecting the reduction of blood pressure among the hypertensive migratory bird population before and after taking medication in Hainan. Results A total of 180 study subjects were included, including 77 (42.8%) males and 103 (57.2%) females, with 78 (43.3%) subjects aged ≤65. The hypertension levels were: 87 (48.3%) had normal high blood pressure, 56 (31.1%) had grade 1 hypertension and 37 (20.6%) had grade 2 hypertension. The higher the blood pressure classification, the lower the percentage of migratory individuals whose blood pressure dropped during their stay in Hainan. Age, hypertension classification, dietary habits, living environment, body mass index (BMI), and alcohol consumption were associated with a decrease in blood pressure during Hainan among the study participants who took hypertension medication regularly. Salty diet (OR=2.778, 95%CI:1.070-7.213, P=0.036) and alcohol consumption (OR=2.686, 95%CI:1.042-6.925, P=0.041) were unfavorable factors for lower diastolic blood pressure before taking medication; overweight (OR=3.487, 95%CI:1.306-9.310, P=0.013) was an unfavorable factor in the reduction of diastolic blood pressure after taking medication. Conclusion The blood pressure reduction is more significant in migratory individuals in migratory individuals under 65 years old, with a light diet, no alcohol consumption and normal BMI. Environmental factors, age, dietary habits and lifestyle are the main causes of blood pressure, which can provide a reference basis for the health management of the migratory birds with hypertension in Hainan.
