Chinese Journal of Rehabilitation Theory and Practice 2011;17(4):372-374
ObjectiveTo investigate the influential factors on the deaf children's hearing and speech rehabilitation.Methods43 deaf children were involved in our study. They performed the hearing thresholds, hearing ability, speech ability and learning aptitude tests.ResultsGender and hearing aid mode didn't correlate with the children's hearing and speech performance (P>0.05). Hearing thresholds had significant influence on the hearing ability (P<0.05), and the speech ability had a strong correlation with the children's learning aptitude (P<0.05). The multiple regression analysis showed that the hearing ability was a significant predictor of speech ability (P<0.001).ConclusionGiving hearing compensation timely and effectively and grasping the critical period of language development to do rehabilitation training as soon as possible are very important to deaf children's rehabilitation of hearing and speech ability.

Academic Journal of Second Military Medical University 2010;31(8):887-891
Transient receptor potential(TRP) superfamily includes seven subfamilies and TRP channels are regulated by a wide variety of physical and chemical factors. Recently, several members of the TRP channel family have been reported to be regulated by phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate(PIP2). The regulation is complex and it can be activation or inhibition, involving multiple mechanisms and factors. This review summarizes the PIP2 regulation of several TRP channels of different superfamilies and the related pathophysiological significance.

Objective To explore the characteristic of SPECT/CT imaging of osteolytic lesions with increased bone metabolism and its correlation with CT manifestation. Methods Twenty?one cancer patients with bone metastases underwent 99 Tcm?MDP SPECT/CT imaging ( 13 males, 8 females; age: ( 60. 52 ± 6?85) years) were retrospectively studied. The imaging characteristic of the lesion with high uptake of 99Tcm?MDP was observed and the correlation between the lesion/background ( L/B ) ratio and CT manifestation were analyzed. One?way analysis of variance, two?sample t test and linear correlation analysis were used. Results A total of 111 lesions were found in 21 patients by 99 Tcm?MDP whole?body bone scan, and 125 le?sions were found by SPECT/CT imaging, including 111 lesions with increased bone metabolism and abnor?mal CT manifestation and 14 osteolytic lesions with decreased bone metabolism. In 111 lesions with in?creased bone metabolism, there were 23(20.72%) osteolytic lesions, 54 (48.65%) osteoblastic lesions and 34 (30.63%) mixed lesions. The L/B ratio of osteolytic lesions with increased bone metabolism (11.82± 6?61) was lower than that of osteoblastic lesions (20.03±13.24) and that of mixed lesions (25.42±19.51;F=6.00, P<0?05) . The CT value of osteolytic lesions with increased bone metabolism was higher than that of osteolytic lesions with decreased bone metabolism :(167.53±79.21) HU vs (88.63±49.16) HU; t=3?345, P<0.05. The L/B ratio of lesions with increased bone metabolism was positively correlated to CT val?ue(r=0.404, P<0?05). Conclusions A part of lesions with increased bone metabolism on SPECT/CT im?ages are osteolytic lesions. The L/B ratio of them is positively correlated to CT value. SPECT/CT imaging can reduce missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis.

Objective To explore the significance of 18fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography(18F?FDG PET/CT)in the etiological diag?nosis of postoperative intestinal obstruction in patients with gastrointestinal cancer. Methods A total of 51 patients with postoperative intestinal ob?struction undergone 18F?FDG PET/CT were enrolled for the study. The images were interpreted by visual and semi?quantitative analysis(maximum standard uptake value,SUVmax). All the cases were confirmed by pathology and clinical follow?up for more than half a year. The sensitivity,specifici?ty and accuracy of 18F?FDG PET/CT for detecting malignant intestinal obstruction were calculated. Results Of the 51 patients,35 cases were con?firmed for malignant intestinal obstruction,and 16 cases were caused by other benign diseases. 18F?FDG PET/CT imaging was positive in 36 cases, and 33 cases were diagnosed as malignant and recurrent intestinal obstruction. Three cases of PET false?positive were peritonitis adhesion and anasto?motic inflammation. Two cases of PET false negative were peritoneal micrometastasis. The SUVmax of malignant lesions was 8.86±4.82,and the SUVmax of benign lesions was 2.05±1.95. The uptake of FDG was significantly higher in malignant intestinal obstruction than in benign intestinal obstruction (t=7.15,P<0.01). The sensitivity,specificity,and accuracy of 18F?FDG PET/CT diagnosis of malignant lesion were 94.3%,81.3%,and 90.2%, respectively. Conclusion The uptake of 18F?FDG in malignant intestinal obstruction was higher than that in benign intestinal obstruction. 18F?FDG PET/CT have a good diagnostic value for the intestinal obstruction of postoperative gastrointestinal cancer.

BACKGROUND: Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells are characterized by wide sources and low immunogenicity. Especially, these cells are easy to import and express foreign genes, and thus have obvious superiorities as anti-tumor gene therapy vectors. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of interleukin-12 gene modified bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells on the proliferation, cell cycle and apoptosis of ovarian cancer cells. METHODS: Interleukin-12 recombinant adenovirus vector was used to transfect bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. Then, the expression of interleukin-12 mRNA and protien in transfected bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells was detected by RT-PCR and western blot assay, respectively. The level of interleukin-12 in cell supernatant was determined by ELISA. The SKOV3 cells were co-cultured with the supernatant of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells transfected with (transfection group) or without (control group) interleukin-12 recombinant adenovirus vector. The proliferation of SKOV3 cells was determined by MTT assay. Flow cytometry was used to detect the cell cycle and apoptosis of SKOV3 cells. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: RT-PCR and western blot results showed that interleukin-12 mRNA and protein were expressed in transfected bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, but not found in empty vector group and blank control group. ELISA results showed that the content of interleukin-12 in the supernatant of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells was (68.78±12.35) μg/L in the interleukin-12 transfection group after 48 hours culture, and no interleukin-12 expression was detected in the empty vector group and the blank control group, Interleukin-12-transfected bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells significantly inhibited the proliferation of SKOV3 cells, and the proliferation inhibition rate was increased with time (P < 0.05). The proportion of G1-phased SKOV3 cells was higher in the transfection group than in the control group (P < 0.05), and the percentage of G2-phased SKOV3 cells was lower in the transfection group than in the control group (P < 0.05). The apoptosis rate of SKOV3 cells in the transfection group was higher than that in the control group (P < 0.05). Our experimental findings indicate that bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells transfected with interleukin-12 recombinant adenovirus vector can express interleukin-12, inhibit the proliferation and induce apoptosis of ovarian cancer cells.
