BACKGROUND: Most animal experiments of transgene are derived from mice; therefore, it is necessary to establish a focal cerebral ischemiareperfusion model and significant to prevent and cure ischemic cerebrovascular diseases.OBJECTIVE: To establish a convenient and reliable model with middle cerebral artery occlusion reperfusion (MCAO/R) in mice.DESIGN: Randomized controlled animal study.SETTING: Institute of Cerebrovascular disease, Affiliated Hospital of Medical College of Qingdao University.MATERIALS: Twenty healthy BALB/c mice, of both genders, weighing 25-30 g, of SPF grade, were divided into sham operation group (n=5), ischemia group (n=10) and 22-hour reperfusion group (n=5) on the basis of digital table. In addition, according to digital table, 130 healthy male Kunming mice were divided into sham operation group (n=10), 24-hour ischemia group (n=30), 2-hour ischemia/22-hour, 46-hour and 70-hour reperfusion groups with 30 in each group; meanwhile, 30 female mice were divided into sham operation group, 24-hour ischemia group and 2-hour ischemia/22-hour reperfusion group with 10 in each group. All Kunming mice were weighing 25-30 g and of SPF grade.METHODS: The experiment was carried out in the Institute of Cerebrovascular Disease, Affiliated Hospital of Medical College of Qingdao University from July 2005 to March 2006. The 6-0 suture with silica gel covered at an end was sent from the left external carotid artery (ECA) into internal carotid artery (ICA) till arriving at the initiation of middle cerebral artery (MCA) to block the blood stream in it, then drawing the suture from ICA 2 hours after occlusion to accomplish reperfusion. Mice were cut off their heads in sham operation group at 24 hours after operation, in ischemia group at 24 hours after blocking blood stream and in reperfusion group at 24, 48 and 72 hours after operation. Reliability of models was evaluated with neurology score and tetrazolium chloride stain. Longa standard scores: neurology score ≥ 1 point was regarded as successful models;coronal sections of brain tissue were stained with tetrazolium chloride, and the white region was regarded as infarcted volume.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Neurology score and infarcted volume after staining of triphenyltetrazolium chloride in brain tissue.RESULTS: All mice were involved in the final analysis. ① Successful rate was 20% of BALB/c mice, 66.7%-73.3% of male Kunming mice and 40%-50% of female Kunming mice. ② Brain sections of BALB/c mice in sham operation group were orange at both sides of cortex and infarction focus was not observed. A big infarcted volume was observed on brain sections of mice in ischemia group, and infarcted volume counted for 50%-70% as homonymy hemisphere on optochiasmatic coronal sections. The condition of Kunming mice was similar to that of BALB/c mice, but infarcted volume counted for 40%-65%. In addition, condition in ischemiareperfusion group was similar to that in ischemia group. A big infarcted volume was observed on brain sections, and infarcted volume counted for 50%-75% as homonymy hemisphere on optochiasmatic coronal sections.The condition of Kunming mice was similar to that of BALB/c mice, but infarcted volume counted for 40%-65%.CONCLUSION: The model with MCAO/R in mice characterizes by relatively smaller trauma, and the ischemic region is stable; therefore, it can be used to accurate timing control of ischemia/reperfusion. This model is an ideal one for researching pathophysiological changes, prognosis and therapy in cerebrovascular disease.

Methods The data on blood smear examination of febrile patients among local residents, focus residents and mobile population in 92 counties from 1995 to 2004 were collected,described and analyzed. Results The totals of 10920395,427600,246159 and 253530 slides in local residents,focus residents, returned population and endemic population were examined. The average positive rates of blood examination were 0.009%,0.079%,1.386% and 0.324%,respectively. The indigenous cases and imported cases accounted for 23.29% (1285/5517) and 76.71% (4232/5517) of the total malaria cases respectively. Conclusions The malaria incidence in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region has been under 1/10000 for 17 years. There is less indigenous malaria in Guangxi. The imported malaria cases are dominated and scattered in whole Region. The secondary cases of imported malaria is very low. The results show that the present surveillance system and control programs are effective for monitoring the epidemic situation of malaria.

Objective To evaluate the value of ultrasound in diagnosing ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS). Methods The sonographic characteristics of 12 DCIS which were confirmed by pathology were analyzed retrospectively. Results The ultrasound image of DCIS could be divided into four types;the solid mass nodule, mammary dysplasia, mix mass nodule, the dilated duct type. Micro calcification had high incidence rate. Ultrasonic diagnosis accordance rate was 50.0 %. On molybdenum target mammograms, the tumor appeared as a cluster of calcified spots in 8 cases, and the accuracy rate of diagnosis of was 66.7 %.Conclusion There are no typical characters of DCIS in ultrasound image. However, some characteristics are suggestive and can help to differentiate them from the benign tumors, such as small nodule, irregular shape,obscure boundary, and microcalcification. When sonography combine with molybdenum target mammography,the accuracy rate of diagnosis will be improved.

Objective:To discuss treatment of complete response cases after neoadjuvant radiotherapy in rectal cancer. Methods:This retrospective study analyzed clinical data of 84 rectal cancer cases with pre-operative neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy in our hospital from January 2010 to Augnst 2014. Results:After neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy, 33 patients presented clinically complete response at a rate of 39.3%. After post-operative pathologic examination, among clinically complete response cases, six cases exhibited patho-logically complete responses at a rate of 18.2%. No recurrence or disease progression occurred within 12-36 months of post-operative follow up. Conclusion:Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy can significantly lower tumor stage and promote clinically complete remission of some patients. However, for clinically complete remission cases, further radical surgery should be provided.
