Objective To investigate the influence of thymosin injection combined with chemotherapy on the immune function and quality of life in patients with ovarian cancer. Methods A total of 206 patients with ovarian cancer were chosen and were divided into the control group (n = 103) and the observation group (n = 103) according to the random number table. The control group received chemotherapy. Based on the treatment of control group, the observation group was additionally treated with thymosin injection, the immune function and quality of life were analyzed and compared between two groups. Results The rates of effectivity and disease control were higher in the observation group than those in the control group [44.66 % (46/103) vs 30.10 % (31/103), 86.41 % (89/103) vs 66.99 % (69/103)], the differences were statistically significant (χ2 =3.942, 4.138, P = 0.022, 0.015), and number of cases of adverse reactions were lower in observation group than those in the control group (22 cases vs 35 cases, χ2= 3.601, P = 0.026), and the improvement rate of quality of life of patients were higher in the observation group than that in the control group [60.19 % (62/103) vs 40.78 % (42/103), χ2 = 3.974, P = 0.021]. After treatment, the expression levels of IgA, IgG, IgM and CD3, CD4, CD4/CD8, NK cells were significantly higher in the observation group than those in the control group, the difference was statistically significant (all P < 0.05). Conclusion Thymosin injection combined with chemotherapy is helpful to improve the immune function and the quality of life in patients with ovarian cancer, it is worthy of wider promotion and application.

Objective To discuss action of microelement Se in serum and milk of gestational diabetes melli-tus parturient.Methods The serum and milk samples were collected from 50 gestational diabetes mellitus parturient and 50 healthy parturient.The selenium contents were detected by radioimmunoassay.Results The serum Se content in gestational diabetes mellitus parturient was obviously lower than that in healthy parturient(t =2.128,P <0.05). The milk Se content in gestational diabetes mellitus parturient was lower than that in healthy parturient(t =1.014, P >0.05).Conclusion Selenium deficiency persisted in gestational diabetes mellitus parturient.But Selenium defi-ciency did not exist in milk of gestational diabetes mellitus parturient.So encouraging breastfeeding,elevating selenium containing food intake,and supplement the selenium preparation properly maybe prevent and delay type 2 diabetes in gestational diabetes mellitus parturient.

Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) s a serine/tyrosine kinase which s expressed widely and regulates various signal transduction pathways in mammalian cell. As one of the key branches of MAPK pathway, p38 MAPK signaling pathway plays an important role in various physiological and pathological processes, such as cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis and cell cycle regulation. In recent years, the research on p38MAPK signaling pathway in cell growth, metabolism and function of osteoclast, osteoblast and chondrocyte related to bone metabolism has attracted increasing attention. This article reviews the relationship beween p38MAPK and bone metabolism, in order to investigate the mechanism of action of p38MAPK in bone metabolism related diseases.

Objective To investigate the association between the lumbar vertebral fracture damage degree with the fracture classification,injury score,kyphosis deformity and nerve function injury.Methods According to the damage degree of posterior lig ament complex(PLC),the patients were divided into the PLC intact group and PLC injury group.Its relationship with PLC injury was researched by evaluating the fracture classification,injury score and nerve function injury situation in the two groups.Results The LCS score and TLICS score in the PLC injury group were (7.1±0.8) points and (8.2±0.6) points,which were higher than (5.7±0.5) points and (4.6±0.7) points in the PLC intact group.The Denis score in the PLC injury group was more serious.The Cobb angle in the PLC injury group was 29°,and which in the PLC intact group was 19°.The proportion of nerve function insufficiency in the PLC injury group was 89％,while which in the PLC intact group was only 60 ％.Conclusion The thoracolumbar vertebral fracture is closely related with PLC.PLC damage degree is positively correlated with the fracture classification,injury score,kyphosis deformity and nerve function injury degree.

China is entering into an aging society, and the incidence of hypertension and atherosclerosis were increased year by year. The incidence of transient ischemic attack (TIA) patients with carotid stenosis increased year by year. Carotid artery stenosis or occlusion can cause reduction of local brain tissue perfusion resulting from TIA. CT cerebral perfusion imaging and SPECT could detect earlier the chronic hyper fusion of carotid stenosis TIA, forecast risk coefficient and intervention and prevent the occurrence of cerebral infarction, to evaluate effect of carotid endarterectomy and carotid s carotid artery stenting. It is very important to monitor cerebral hemodynamic changes. The technology has the features of blood infusion situation, advantages, curative effect evaluation and development trend in carotid stenosis TIA reviewed by CT perfusion imaging and SPECT.

Objective To elucidate the MRI appearance of prostatic abscess,the DWI and enhanced MRI features.Methods 12 cases of prostatic abscesses were retrospectively analyzed,the clinical symptom mainly manifested as lower urinary tract symptoms and fever.All of the patients were given routine MR examination including DWI sequence,6 patients received further enhanced MR examination.Results In the 12 cases,there were 4 cases behaved as single type,8 cases as multifocal type.The abscess showed iso-or slightly hypo-signal intensity on T1 WI,hyper-signal intensity on T2 WI,markedly high signal intensity on DWI and correspond-ing markedly low signal intensity on ADC.Complete abscess walls showed iso-or slightly hyper signal on T1 WI,hypo-signal inten-sity on T2 WI.The mature abscess walls were thin and smooth,which showed homogeneously ring enhanced in 4 cases.The imma-ture abscess walls showed uneven thickness and moderately enhanced in 2 cases.Septum in the abscess could be found in 4 cases, which showed similar enhancement to the abscess walls,while the abscess cavity showed non-enhanced.Abscesses involved the sur-rounding structures in 2 cases,the involved area showed obvious hyper-signal on T2 WI fat-suppression sequence.Conclusion DWI is the best sequence in the diagnosis of prostatic abscess,the markedly high signal intensity on DWI is the characteristic sign.The enhanced MRI showed the walls and septa clearly,the extent and involvement of adjacent structures.The multi-parametric MRI is a prominent procedure in the diagnosis of prostatic abcess.

Objective To explore the diagnostic value of diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) and CT perfusion imaging (CTPI) in diagnosis of liver fibrosis. Methods Fifty-seven hepatic fibrosis patients and 23 normal controls received DWI (b=500 s/mm2), ADC value of different fibrosis stages was measured, while 35 patients and all 23 normal controls received CTPI. The parameters of CTPI including blood flow (BF), blood volume (BV), mean transit time (MTT), hepatic arterial fraction (HAF) and permeability surface (PS) were measured. Analysis of variances was performed to compare the difference among the groups in both examinations. ROC curve was used to analyze the sensitivity and specificity of DWI and CTPI. Results The difference of ADC value between control group and S1 group was not significant, but between control group and S2, S3, S4 group and among group S2, group S3, group S4 was significant. In the parameters of CTPI, only the difference of HAF between control group and S3-S4 group was significant. Sensitivity and specificity of DWI and CTPI was 78.90%, 82.60% and 66.67%, 73.91%, respectively. Conclusion DWI is superior to CTPI for early diagnosis and degrading of liver fibrosis.
