Radiotherapy has been an effective non surgical treatment for brain metastases.While the benefit of survival was achieved,the potential cognitive impairment caused by radiotherapy gradually arouse people's attention.To improve patient's prognosis,ensuring tumor control and caring patients' quality of life and neurocognitive functions should be weighed equally.This article reviews the related research on the neurocognitive protection of brain metastasis radiotherapy.

Objective To investigate the correlation between thyroid antibody level and carotid atherosclerotic plaque in patients with acute ischemic stroke.Methods Consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke were enrolled retrospectively.They were divided into a non-plaque group and a plaque group according to the findings of carotid artery color-Doppler ultrasonography.The plaque group was redivided into a stable plaque subgroup and a non-stable plaque subgroup.Chemiluminescence method was used to measure the serum thyroperoxidase antibodies (TPOAb) and thyroglobulin antibodies (TGAb) levels and they were compared.Results A total of 383 patients were enrolled in the study,including 116 (30.3％) did not have plaque and 267 (69.7％) had plaque,68 of them had unstable plaque,and 199 had stable plaque.The level of TGAb in the plaque group was significantly higher than that in the non-plaque group (Z =-4.826,P ＜0.001).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the level of TGAb might be an independent risk factors for carotid plaque (odds ratio 1.007,95％ confidence interval 1.001-1.012;P =0.016).The serum level of TPOAb in the stable plaque group was significantly higher than that in the unstable plaque group (Z =-2.114,P=0.035),but multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that it was not the independent risk factor for unstable plaque (odds ratio 1.001,95％ confidence interval 0.996-1.006;P =0.786).Conclusions The level of serum thyroid antibodies increased in patients with acute ischemic stroke,especially the increased level of TGAb might be associated with the occurrence and development of carotid atherosclerotic plaque,however,it was not associated with the plaque stability.

This paper focus on conductive education approach during exercise therapy of cerbral palsy childrens, which emphasis the children active participation in the exercises and their phsycological reactions. Its main feature is using the rythmicl intention, task analysis and task series as the tools to perform the goal - directed activities in group setting and carry it out in the children' s daily life. The current studies on the motor control and motor learning are reviwed in this paper as well.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics, treatment, and factors of recurrence of abdominal wall endometrioms ( AWE). Methods 19 cases of AWE diagnosed at Shaoxing People' s Hospital from January 2005 to April 2009 were reviewed retrospectively. Results All patients had a history of cesarean section. Eleven patients (57.9%) had the typical complaint of an enlarging mass and pain during menstruation. All patients received surgical excision and postoperative adjuvant therapy of gonadotropin releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) or Mifepristone treatment for 6 months. The diagnosis was confirmed by histological examination in all patients. At follow- up, ranging from 1 month to 3 years, there was 1 case of recurrence of endometrioms during a follow -up of 2 years. Conclusion AWE could be diagnosed easily by its typical clinical manifestations preoperatively. Sonography or MRI may be helpful in identifying the exact anatomical location of the lesion and in excluding other surgical conditions, however it lacks specificness. Surgical excision is the only effective treatment, and complete and wide local excision is the key point to prevent recurrence. Combination surgical excision with postoperative adjuvant therapy might reduce the recurrence, although its effectiveness need being testified in the future.

Objective To study the clinical and imaging characteristics of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis(CVST).Methods Clinical data of 9 cases with CVST were retrospectively analyzed.Results All patients had headache,nausea and vomiting; 5 patients had epilepsy; 3 patients had focal neurological deficits; 3 patients had fever; 3 patients had palilledema; 3 patients had disturbance of consciousness. CSF examination showed prominent high intracranial pressure, but conventional and biochemical examinations were normal. 8 patients did CT scan, but the diagnosis was not clear. All patients first MRI showed venous sinus and related brain areas long T1 and T2 signal; MRV showed that the involved venoussinus had non-visualized signal. MRI in chronic phase showed slightly higher T1 and T2 signal; MRV showed sinus enhancement.The outline of uncomplete reconalzation was unclear. Conclusions The common high intracranial pressure is unspecific sign and symptom of patients with CVST. CSF examination show that the intracranial pressure is prominent high, but conventional and biochemical examination are normal. MRI can show that the normal flow void of the dural sinus is disappeared, instead of abnormal high or equality intensities. The characters of CVST in MRV are those the blood flow signal of involved venous sinus be disappeared or showed anormalism.

Objective To compare the value of biphasicmulti-detector row helical computed tomogrpahy(MDCT),digital subtraction angiography(DSA)and lipiodol computed tomography(CT)in hypervascular hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods 80 cases with liver cancer were underwent MDCT、DSA、iodized oil CT scan,then compared detection rates of three methods.Results In detecting hepatic nodules(＞2cm),these three imaging techniques had the same sensitivity;for 1～2cm hepatic nodules,the detecting rate had no significant difference;The MDCT scan＜1cm detected 47 nodules(94.0%),iodized oil CT detected 27 nodules(54.0%),both statistically significant difference in detection rate(χ~2=3.11,P＜0.01),DSA is only detected 16 nodules(32.0%)compared with enhanced dual-phase MDCT scan and iodized oil CT detection rate the differences were statistically significant(χ~2=9.09,9.03,all P＜0.01).Conclusion MDCT is able to better show feeding arteries of hepatocellular carcinoma,The imaging examination of liver cancer before treatment can be used as a comprehensive evaluation.

Objective To compare rotational DSA with routine DSA in the assessment of intracranial aneurysms. Methods Conventional anteroposterior, lateral and oblique views of DSA and rotational DSA were respectively performed in 20 patients suspected of intracranial aneurysms in subarachnoid hemorrhage using DSA (Philips Integris V 3000DSA system). Images were compared for localization of the aneurysm, shape of the aneurysmal neck and vascular branch anatomy. Results Among 20 patients, only 18 intracranial aueurysms were found by convertional DSA and the other two were only by the rotational DSA. Furthermore, conventional DSA examination could not clarify the relationships of 6 (6/18) aneruysms with their parent arteries and with the vascular branch anatomy including the aneurysmal neck could not be clarified in 7 (7/18) patients. However, shape of the aneurysms and visibility of the aneurysmal neck could be clarified after using the rotational DSA, and meanwhile, vascular anatomy can be indentified with the rotational DSA. Conclusion Rotational DSA often allows better visibility of vascular anatomy and aneurysmal neck compared with conventional DSA, offering more important information for operation.

Objective To provide a series of surgical approaches for treatment of bone lesions in ankle and foot. Methods Based on the anatomic investigations,vascularized cuboid bone,medial cuneiform bone,navicular bone and lateral part of calcaneum bone grafting were designed for repaired bone lesions in the area of ankle and foot,and applied to 55 clinic cases. Results Forty-eight cases among them were followed up from 1 year to 10 years,4 years and 6 month in average,the results were satisfactory. Conclusion The designed four types of vascularized tarsal bone flaps are easy and reliable for dissection because of their superficial pedicle.

Objective To investigate the intracranial vascular stenosis and risk factors in different types of ischemic stroke. Methods 525 patients with ischemic stroke were assessed by a transcranial Doppler. Lipids including total cholesterol (CHO),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and triglyceride (TG) were examined. Results Intracranial vascular stenosis in diabetic and non-diabetic groups of patients,hypertension and non-hypertension groups of patients showed significantly difference (P
