Objective To investigate the expression of IL-10 and IL-6 in tissue and plasma of subtypes lymphoma and its significance. Methods Immunohistochemical technique and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were used to assess the expression of IL-10 and IL-6 in 97 cases paraffin tissue and plasma samples from different subtypes of lymphoma.Results Expression of IL-10 and IL-6 was positive in all lymphoma tissue samples, but there is no significant difference among different subtypes lymphoma (x2 =0.815, x2 =0.542, P ＞ 0.05). Tumor samples were found positive IL-10 and IL-6 expression in macrophages and vascular endothelial cells by immunohistochemistry respectively. Expression of IL-10 and IL-6 in plasma of lymphoma were higher than that in control respectively [(232.57±191.59) pg/ml vs (59.12±68.35) pg/ml,(80.70±89.68) pg/ml vs (45.68±33.66) pg/ml],with significant difference (t =6.968,t =2.896,P ＜0.05).IL-10 and IL-6 plasma levels increased with enhanced expression in lymphoma (x2 =0.815,x2 =0.542,P ＜ 0.05).Which was found to be correlated with each other (rs =0.394,P ＜ 0.05). Conclusion The expression of IL-10 and IL-6 had been found at various degrees in tissues and plasma of lymphoma.IL-10 and IL-6 in plasma of lymphoma were higher than that in controls. These results showed that IL-10 and IL-6 may cooperate in vivo with lymphoma cell proliferation and infiltrate. IL-6 and IL-10 maybe served as useful indicators for diagnosis of lymphoma.

Objective To study a improved technique by releasing the orbicularis retaining ligament in orbicularis oculi muscle supension blepharoplasty. Release of the orbicularis retaining ligament could cut off the contact between orbitomalar skin and periosteum at inferior orbital rim, and carry the point of tightening orbitomalar skin in orbicularis oculi muscle supension blepharoplasty. Methods There were 409 patients with apparent orbitmalar fold. The methods of releasing orbicularis retaining ligament and orbital septum fixation were added to improve the orbicularis oculi muscle supension blepharoplasty. Results 409 cases were treated using this method over the past 3 years. All results were satisfactory. No complications were observed. Conclusion This improved method of orbicularis oculi muscle supension blepharoplasty is useful for orbitomalar skin rolling, especially for orbitmalar fold. The release allows effective redraping and upward mobilization of the orbicularis of the lower lid and the premalar soft tissues. This method is a simple, safe and effective procedure for the correction of tear trough deformity and well-demarcated lid/cheek junction in lower eyelid belpharoplasty. It is one of the best choices for lower eyelid blepharoplasty.

Objective To study the prevalence of thrombocytosis in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and its correlation with clinicopathological features.Methods 156 patients with advanced NSCLC were retrospectively analyzed.The platelets degree between the groups with different sex,age,smoking,histological type of advanced NSCLC was compared and analyzed statistically.The relationship between the platelet count and chemotherapy effects was analyzed.Single analysis and Cox regression analysis were used for TTP and OS.Results Compared with the healthy persons,Plt significantly elevated in group with advanced NSCLC (36.5 ％,57/156 vs 5.0 ％,5/100) (P ＜ 0.01),and thrombocytosis group responded poorly to chemotherapy (22.8 ％,13/57 vs 39.4 ％,39/99) (P ＜ 0.05).The TTP (3.0 months vs 5.2 months) and OS (11.2 months vs 14.2 months) of Plt elevated group were significantly shorter than those of normal group.Conclusion Thrombocytosis is closely related to progress and metastasis of advanced NSCLC.Platelet count can be used as an assistant index in the prognosis judgment of patients with advanced NSCLC.

Objective To analyse CT diagnosis of unusual closed retroperitoneal trauma so that to improve its diagnostic accuracy.Methods CT features of unusual closed retroperitoneal trauma confirmed by clinical data and surgery in 13 cases were analyzed.Results There were adrenal hematomas in 11 cases,among them,2 cases accompanied with renal arterial occlusion,appeared as renal arterial ruptured suddenly and "interface sign".The hematomas appeared as round,similar round or mass hyperdense shadows and in combination with periadrenal tissue injury;pancreatic rupture in 2 cases,appeared as linear area of low attenuation inside pancreas.Conclusion CT scan is an effective modality for diagnosing the unusual closed retroperitoneal trauma.Correct CT diagnosis is very important for the effective surgical treatment as well as reduction of severe complications and mortality of unusual closed retroperitoneal trauma.

Objective To analyze plasma vitamin E and CoQ10 levels in patients with autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxia for finding the evidence of the related pathogenesis research and therapeutic strategies.Methods The plasma vitamin E and CoQ10 levels were detected by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with diode array detector in 123 probands of autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxia pedigrees.Quantitation was performed using vitamin E and CoQ10 external standard and two 5-point calibration curve;clinical manifestations were analyzed simuhaneously.Results Vitamin E and CoQ10 levels of healthy subjects in the plasma were (8.77 ± 2.28) μg/ml and (1.31 ± 0.38) μg/ml,respectively;the plasma vitamin E and CoQ10 levels of patients were (5.61 ± 2.04) μg/ml and (0.79 ± 0.26) μg/ml,respectively,which were significantly lower than those in healthy controls (t =11.87,13.15;all P＜ 0.01).Clinical manifestations were characterized by cerebellar symptoms,and gait instability was usually the first recognized abnormality.Most of early onset occurred before the age of 25 years (111/123);dysarthria and abnormal eye movement were observed,with cerebellar atrophy on MRI;concomitant symptoms were also present.Conclusions HPLC analysis shows that the plasma vitamin E and CoQ10 levels of patients with autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxia are generally lower than those in the healthy controls.Several patients with significant reductions in these two levels have genetic defects.The combination of clinical phenotypes,biochemical indexes and genetic analyses will be helpful for the establishment of diagnosis and specific treatment.

BACKGROUND:Posterior cervical open-door expansive laminoplasty is one of the simple and effective methods to treat cervical spinal diseases, has satisfactory results but low complications. However, the imbalance of sagittal plan, loss of lordosis or axial pain is often reported recently. OBJECTVE:To analyze the correlation between cervical sagittal alignment and clinical outcomes after laminoplasty. METHODS:Between January 2011 and June 2015, 122 cases of cervical spinal disease, who were treated with open-door expansive laminoplasty with mini-titanium plate, were retrospectively analyzed. Clinical outcomes were evaluated by Japanese Orthopaedic Association, Neck Disability Index and Visual Analogue Scale. Radiographic results were assessed by C2-7 Cobb angle, C2-7 sagittal vertical axis and C7 slope. The correlation between sagittal alignment and clinical outcomes were analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Al patients were fol owed up for 7-32 months. (2) Japanese Orthopaedic Association, Neck Disability Index and Visual Analogue Scale scores were improved in the final fol ow-up (al P<0.001). No significant difference in upper limb Visual Analogue Scale scores was determined (P=0.142). In the final fol ow-up, C2-7 sagittal vertical axis increased (P=0.036), but neither the C2-7 Cobb angle nor the C7 slope significantly changed (P=0.092, P=0.184). (3) There were no correlations between sagittal alignment parameters (C2-7 Cobb angle, C2-7 sagittal vertical axis and C7 slope) and clinical outcomes (Japanese Orthopaedic Association, Neck Disability Index and Visual Analogue Scale) (al P>0.05). (4) These findings indicated that posterior cervical open-door expansive laminoplasty with mini-titanium plate can significantly improve the neurological function of patients. However, there is no correlation between cervical sagittal alignment and clinical outcomes.

Objective To determine the drug-resistance rates of bacteria isolated from 7 hospitals located at different areas of China.Methods 1 111 pathogenic strains were isolated for susceptibility test using agar dilution method from Sep 1,204 to Aug 3 1,2005.According to the criteria of guideline of CLSI (2007),MIC50 and MIC90 were detected for antibacterial activity of antimicrobial agents and resistant rate (R%),intermediate rate(I%)and sensitive rate(S%)were calculated based on susceptibility tests.Results The detectable rates of methiciltin-resistant Staphylococcus anreus(MRSA)and methicilllin- resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis(MRSE)were 39.3%and 74.0% respectively.The total resistant rate of penicillin resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae(R%+I%) was 33.3%(R%=5.6%,I%=27.7%). 91 strains of Enterococcus were isolated.The resistant rate of penicillin resistant E.faecalis Was 40.8%.and E.faecium Was 100%.Neither strains of S.aureus nor strains of S.epidemidis were found resistant to vancomycin.No strains of Enterococcus were found resistant to vancomycin.644 strains of gram-negative bacilli were isolated.The most common gram-negative bacilli were E.coli,k pneumoniae,Acinetobacter spp,P.aeruginosa,and E.cloacae,respectively.The ESBLs-producing strains accounted for 38.6% and 26.7% in E.coli and K. pneumoniae.respectively.Meropenem and imipenem were the most potent antimicrobial agents.Cefoperazone/sulbactam demonstrated excellent activity agent of gram-negative bacilli.Most of the gram-negative bacillus still susceptible to ceftazidime.The new fluroquinotones, moxifloxacin and levofloxacin showed strong and broad spectrum activity against the most gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria.Conclusions This surveillance in 2004-2005 together with the surveillance in 2002-2003,were similar in the bacterial resistance pattern and the trend of rising resistant rates for some pathogens.
