Objective To explore the Clinicopathological characteristics of patients with primary adenosquamous and squamous carcinoma of stomach. Methods The clinical data of 12 cases of primary squamous and adenosquamous carcinoma of the stomach were reviewed retrospectively, and the immunohistochemical staining of CK17 and CKI8 protein were performed in primary gastric adenosquamous carcinoma. Results Primary adenosquamous and squamous carcinoma of the stomach accounted for 0.28% of all the 4352 patients with gastric cancer during the same period. Of the 12 patients, 10 were adenosquamous carcinoma and other two were squamous carcinoma. There were 10 males and 2 females in this group, with their mean age being 65 years. The main clinical presentation included epigastric pain and discomfort, followed by hematemesis and melena. The definite diagnosis rate was 33% (4/12) by gastroscopy and biopsy before operation. The tumors were less than 5 cm in diameter in 3 patients, and more than 5 cm in 9 patients. The surgical procedure was radical resection in 8 patients and palliative resection in 4 patients. There were 1 case of stage Ⅰ, 5 cases of stage Ⅲ, 6 cases of stage Ⅳ. 10 patients died of tumor recurrence and metastasis within 2 years after operation, one died of other unrelated disease, and one was alive for more than 5 months. The component of both adenosquamous and squamous carcinoma were more than 30% in 4 patients with adenosquamous carcinoma who underwent palliative resection and died within 6 months after operation. Conclusions Primary adenosquamous and squamous carcinoma of the stomach were rare, and had specific clinicopathological characteristics. Having both biological behaviours of adenocarcinoma and squamous carcinoma may lead to poor prognosis in adenosquamous carcinoma of stomach.

Tne secondary injury may occur in the perihematomal tissue after intracerebral hemorrhage(ICH).Studies have suggested that apoptosis palys an important role in the secondary injury after intracerebral hemorrhage.1he inhibition of apoptosis may significantly improve the neurological deficit after ICH.

Objective To explore the clinical application of microsurgical techniques to therapy the femoral neck fracture in younger patients and prevent the necrosis of femoral head.Methods Seventy-four younger adults,age from 23 to 50,with femoral neck fractures were treated by open veducition,internal fixa- tion and pedicled bone transplantation from Jan.1995 to Dec.2004.All of the 74 patients were reviewed clin- ically and radiologically after an average of 3.2 years.Results In this group,19/74 cases(25.68%)had avaseular necrosis of the femoral head,which were diagnosised after an average of 28.5 months following inju- ry.Despite these results,these patients assessment with Harris system had been very good or good in 55/74 patients(74.32%).Conclusion It's an effective method to decrease the incidence of necrosis of femoral head after management the femoral neck fracture in younger patients by microsurgical techniques.

Objective To investigate Aβ42 and P-tau levels in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Methods CSF of 25 cases of MCI and 14 cases of cognitively normal (CN) were investigated. The CSF levels of Aβ42 and P-tau were detected by ELISA method. Correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between P-tau level and MMSE score in MCI. Results The CSF level of Aβ 42 was higher and P-tau was lower in MCI than CN group(P<0.05). P-tau level in MCI was also negatively correlated with MMSE score (P<0.05). Conclusion Aβ42 and P-tau levels in CSF may be valuable biological markers in the diagnosis of MCI. P-tau level in CSF of MCI may be related to the severity of cognitive impairment.

AIM:To establish a microthrombus model by carrageenan (Ca)/ lipopolysaccharides (LPS) intraperitoneal injection in rats with hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) and endothelial dysfunction induced by L-methionine intake. METHODS: ① Male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into 2 groups: control and endothelial dysfunction (HHcy) groups. L-methionine was administered by gavage in HHcy group for total 4 weeks. Purified water was administered by gavage in control rats. Plasma Hcy, NO and vWF were examined and the thoracic aorta were excised after 4 weeks of L-methionine treatment to evaluate endothelial function. ② Male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into 3 groups to establish a microthrombus formation model with Ca/ LPS: control, microthrombus formation (Ca/LPS) and endothelial dysfunction plus mitoarothrombus formation (HHcy+Ca/LPS) groups. Control rats were injected with normal saline (NS). Ca/LPS rats were intraperitoneally injected with carrageenan (Ca) and followed by lipopolysaccharides (LPS) 16 h later. HHcy+Ca/LPS rats were intragastric gavaged by L-methionine for total 4 weeks, and then were injected with Ca/LPS in the same way as Ca/LPS group. Cruor parameters and platelet count were detected at 20 h after LPS or NS injection and the mesentery microcirculation was monitored. Plasma NO and vWF were also detected at 24 h after LPS or NS injection. RESULTS: ① Plasma Hcy concentrations and vWF level were significantly increased in HHcy group, while plasma NO content was significantly decreased compared with that in control group. Endothelial dependent relaxation (EDR) of aortic rings was significantly decreased in HHcy group, suggesting endothelial damage/dysfunction was induced by HHcy. ② Mesentery capillary was obviously blocked by microthrombus in Ca/LPS rats and was blocked more seriously in HHcy+Ca/LPS rats. Cruor parameter results suggested that Ca/LPS rats were in hypercoagulable phase and HHcy+Ca/LPS rats were in hypocoagulable phase at 20 h after LPS injection. Platelet count and plasma NO content in HHcy+Ca/LPS group were significantly decreased, while plasma vWF level was significantly increased compared with Ca/LPS group. CONCLUSION: L-methionine intake induces severe HHcy and causes endothelial dysfunction in rats. Microcirculation dysfunction and microthrombosis can be caused by Ca/LPS intraperitoneal injection and may be aggravated by endothelial dysfunction.

Objective Toexplore the correlation of ApoE gene polymorphism and serum uric acid levels in Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region , China.Methods A case-control study.October 2011 to November 2011, five hundred twenty eight ( 296 male, 232 female ) apparently healthy individuals were studied.Questionnaires and physical examinations were performed by standard operation procedure.Fasting blood was collected for biochemistry testing including serum lipid parameters , uric acid concentration and creatinine levels.The multi-ARMS PCR was applied to determine ApoE genotypes ,and the relation of ApoE genotypes with serum lipid parameters and uric acid levels were analyzed.Non-normal distribution were compared using cause and inspection.Results The common six kinds of ApoE genotype can be detected.The total cholesterol ( TC) ,low density lipoprotein cholesterol ( LDL-C) and uric acid ( UA) levels in different genotype subgroups had statistical differences.The individuals with ε2/3 genotype had a significantly greater reductions in TC and LDL-C levels but increment in uric acid concentration than those withε3/3 and ε3/4 genotype (P<0.05).The effect of ApoE gene polymorphism on uric acid levels still remained significantly after adjustment for age , gender , region and other factors.Conclusion The ApoE polymorphism is associated with serum uric acid levels and individuals with ε2 allele have higher serum uric acid levels.

Objective To isolate and identify exosomes from serum samples of the patients with polymyositis / dermatomyositis (PM/ DM),and analyze their protein composition preliminarily.Methods Exosomes from serum samples of the patients with PM/DM were isolated and purified by the ExoQuickTM kit.The morphological characteristics and particle size of exosomes were determined by transmission electron microscope (TEM) and NanoSight analyzer,respectively.The surface markers of exosomes such as CD9,CD81 and Flotillin-2 were identified by western blot.The concentration and composition of exosome protein were determined by the BCA method and SDS-PAGE,respectively.Results The exosomes from serum samples of PM/DM patients displayed round or oval vesicles with membrane structure under TEM,and their diameter range was about (92 ± 67) nm.western blot showed that these exosomes expressed CD9,CD81 and Flotillin-2.The total protein concentrations of exosomes in the patients with PM/DM and healthy controls were 14.68 (6.00,32.55) μg/μL and 14.09 (8.00,23.28) μg/μL,respectively.SDS-PAGE showed that high-abundance proteins enriched in 55-70 kD in both PM/DM patients and healthy controls,and that there were different bands in 40-55 kD between them.Conclusion Exosomes are isolated from serum samples of the patients with PM/DM successfully,and their protein concentration and composition are analyzed preliminarily,which provides the experimental evidences for further finding differential proteins.

Objective To explore the risk factors of antidepressant treatment emergent suicidal ideas or attempted suicide among patients with bipolar depression. Methods Out of 623 patients with bipolar disorder visiting between June 2006 and June 2009,68 who was initially diagnosed as unipolar disorder and treated with antidepressants were retrospectively surveyed. Suicide and activation symptoms during the process of antidepressant treatment were estimated based on the cases record and semi-structural interviews. Unconditional bivariate logistic regression was conducted to analyze the potential risk factors. Results Of 68 patients,7 ( 10. 3% ) experienced antidepressant treatment emergent suicidal ideas and 4 ( 5.9% ) attempted suicide after 2 to 63 ( 17.45 ± 5.90 )days following the treatment. The antidepressant treatment emergent suicidal ideas or attempted suicide were related to the suicidal level before treatment (P= 0. 012, OR = 2. 072 ) and the combined use of benzodiazepine (P =0. 043, OR = 0.236). Clinical subtypes, gender, age, symptoms feature, types of antidepressant and antidepressanttreatment emergent activation symptoms had little impact on the antidepressant treatment emergent suicidal ideas orattempted suicide (P ＞ 0.05 ). Conclusion The antidepressant treatment emergent suicidal ideas or attempted suicide among patients with bipolar depression are positively related to the suicidal level before treatment while negatively associated with the combined use of benzodiazepine.

Objective To investigate relationships between serum levels of anti?tyrosinase IgG antibody(TYR IgG)as well as anti?tyrosinase?related protein?1 IgG antibody(TRP?1 IgG)and vitiligo. Methods Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was performed to detect serum levels of TYR IgG and TRP?1 IgG in 260 patients with vitiligo and 50 health controls. The threshold for defining a positive test result was set at 3 standard deviations above the mean serum level of TYR IgG or TRP?1 IgG in the healthy controls. Results The positive rate of TYR IgG and/or TRP?1 IgG in the vitiligo group was 57.31%(149/260). The positive rates of TYR IgG and TRP?1 IgG were both significantly higher in the vitiligo group than in the control group(TYR IgG:37.3%[97/260]vs. 0,χ2=25.441, P<0.01;TRP?1 IgG:33.5%[87/260]vs. 0,χ2=21.630, P<0.01). The positive rate of TYR IgG was not associated with that of TRP?1 IgG in the vitiligo group(r=-0.032, P>0.05). Among patients with vitiligo, the positive rate of TRP?1 IgG was significantly higher in females than in males(χ2=5.811, P<0.05), as well as in patients aged≤20 years than in those aged>20 years(χ2=6.498, P<0.05), while the positive rate of TYR IgG didn′t differ between females and males, or between patients aged ≤ 20 years and those aged > 20 years (both P >0.05). Conclusion Detection of TYR IgG and TRP?1 IgG may provide some evidence for the diagnosis and treatment of vitiligo.
