Objective To discuss the effect of applying evidence-based medicine (EBM) in orthopedic clinical teaching for eight-year program medical students in military medical university. Methods Totally 50 eight-year medical students in Shanghai Changzheng Hospital were equally divided into two groups:experimental group(EBM teaching group) and control group. The teacher of experimental group selected appropriate cases and set up the questions according to the difficulties encountered in clinical situation. Students retrieved the relevant medical literature and found out the most useful information for EBM system analysis. The results combined with the current cases were discussed. The teachers summarized clinical experiences and data according to the relevant depart-ment. Traditional direct infusion teaching mode was used in control group. Clinical work experiences were used to guide the students . After-department examination was conducted for both group after finishing the internship and questionnaire investigation was made among students in experiment group. Statistical analysis was carried out on the examination results with SPSS 17.0 software. Mea-surement data were expressed as x±s and comparison on mean differences between two groups was analyzed by t test. Results Average scores of subjective topic and military related topic in the theory exam were higher in experimental group than in traditional teaching group, with statistically significant differences(P<0.001). Excellent rate was 80%(20/25) in case discussion in experimental group and 60%(15/25) in control group. Experimental investigation questionnaire showed that: students got enhanced in learning initiative and broadened knowledge. 96%(24/25) students strengthened the learn-ing efficiency of military related chapters. 88%(22/25) students accepted this method and expected to continue. Conclusions Using the method of evidence-based medicine in eight-year program medical students in military medical university can cultivate the spirit of the stu-dents' self-study actively and rigorous earnest attitude. Students can grasp learning methods and sci-entific thinking. It also can strengthen students' awareness of military medicine and research.

Objective To explore the clinical and radiographic outcomes of minimally invasive transforarninal lumbar interbody fusion (MIS-TLIF) with unilateral pedicle screw fixation in treatment of one-level lumbar degenerative disease.Methods A total of 65 patients suffered from one-level lumbar degenerative disease between October 2009 and December 2011.They were divided into 2 groups according to different fixation ways.31 patients were given MIS-TLIF with unilateral pedicle screw fixation.The other 34 patients were given MIS-TLIF with bilateral pedicle screw fixation.Microscopic tubular retractor system (METRxMD) and Sextant system were used in all the procedures of treatment.The whole lumbar lordosis (WL),the segmnental lordosis (SL),fusion level disc space angle,lumbar scoliosis angle,and segmental scoliosis angle were measured pre and post operation according to standarded X-rays.The disc height index (DI) and the lumber curvature index (LI) were also evaluated.The Oswestry disability index (ODI) score and visual analog scale (VAS) pain score data were obtained from all the patients pre-operation and during each following-up procedure.Results All the patients were well followed up 18 months to 36 months(average 26.6 months).All the 65 patients were proved to achieve bone fusion in 12 months post-operation.The ODI and VAS scores post-operation improved significantly in each group,but showed no significant difference between the 2 groups.Likewise,there were no significant differences between the 2 groups in datas of WL,SL,fusion level disc space angle,lumbar scoliosis angle,segmental scoliosis angle,DI,and LI.But there was a positive linear correlation between the LI and WL in the 2 groups.Conclusion MIS-TLIF with unilateral pedicle screw fixation is as good as MIS-TLIF with bilateral pedicle screw fixation in patients of one-level lumbar degenerative disease.

Objective To discuss the mode of onset,clinical characteristics,treatment and prognosis of children with granulocyte sarcoma (GS),in order to provide guidance for early diagnosis and effective treatment of GS.Methods Six cases of children with GS diagnosed at the Department of Hematology,Children's Hospital Affiliated to Soochow University between June 2009 and June 2014 were analyzed,the data including the mode of onset,clinical manifestation,diagnosis,treatment and outcome.Results There were 2 cases with a painless mass onset (1 case was 2 years old,characterized by right waist mass,about 10 cm × 5 cm;the other case was 6 years old,characterized by axillary lump,about 2 cm × 3 cm),and both of them received surgical removal of the tumor,then the postoperative tumor was examined by pathologic and immunohistochemical method,and at last the primary granulocyte sarcoma was diagnosed.The third case was a 7 years old girl,she was onset characterized by scalp lump,about 2 cm × 3 cm,and was diagnosed by the pathologic and immunohistochemical method,and changes in hematological system appeared a month later and acute myeloid leukemia(AML) was confirmed by bone marrow examination.The onset ages of other 3 cases were in 10 months,1 year and 7 months,13 years and 3 months old respectively,characterized by scalp lump (about 2 cm × 3 cm),spinal canal tumor (about 1.0 cm × 1.5 cm),intracranial tumors (6.0 cm × 4.9 cm),with AML occurring at the same time,which was confirmed by surgical pathology,immunohistochemistry and bone marrow cell morphology,immune classification,chromosome,and fusion gene diagnosis.Four cases were hematopoietic malignancies by pathology,2 cases of then belonging to small round cell tumor.The immune pathology showed 5 cases of myeloperoxidase positive,CD68-positive,3 cases of CD43-positive,CD123-positive.All children CD3,CD20 levels in all children were negative.Four cases underwent surgery combined with chemotherapy,other 2 cases received surgery and then gave up treatment,1 case discontinued follow-up 3 months later,and the other case died of intracranial hemorrhage after 3 months,which induced by thrombocytopenia.The treated 4 cases were followed up 3 to 58 months,and all had disease-free survival.Conclusions Children with GS have low incidence and non-specific diagnostic criteria,its diagnosis depends on immune pathology,and the treatment is mainly in accordance with AML program for high-dose chemotherapy.The systematic chemotherapy helps to prolong overall survival;at the same time,the hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with bone marrow may help to improve the prognosis.

Objective This study is to investigate the expressions of MACC1 and c-Met genes in prostate cancer tis?sues and to explore the relationship between these gene expressions with the development, invasion and metastasis of pros?tate cancer. Methods The expressions of MACC1 and c-Met genes were examined in 30 cases of benign prostatic hyperpla?sia and 67 cases of prostate cancer using citron acid-microwave-SP immunohistochemical method and analysed with their clinical pathological features. Results Expressions of MACC1 and c-Met in prostate tissues show statistical difference ac?cording to Gleason score, PSA level, pathological stages and whether bone metastasis occurs after radical surgery ( P<0.05 or P < 0.01), but their expressions in prostate tissue show no significant difference among different sex, age and whether smoking or not. Expression of MACC1 in prostate tissue of stageⅢandⅣcancer is significantly higher than that in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) tissues (P<0.05) while the expression of c-Met only shows statistical difference in prostate tis?sue of stage Ⅳcancer compared with that in BPH (P < 0.05). There is a positive correlation between the expression of MACC1 with expression of c-Met in prostate cancer tissues (P<0.01). Kaplan-Meier curves revealed that the survival rates was lower and survival time of bone-free metastasis were shorter in patients with high MACC1 and c-Met expressions in prostate tissue than those with low expressions of MACC1 and c-Met in prostate tissue. Conclusion Expression of MACC1 and c-Met is closely related to the development, invasion and metastasis of prostate cancer, so MACC 1 and c-Met may be used as promising diagnostic and prognostic markers for prostate tumor, and as new therapeutic targets for prostate cancer.

Objective To survey the value of risperidone in the treatment of depression without psychotic symptoms. Methods 205 depressive patients were randomly divided into 3 groups: risperidone group, fluoxetine group and combined group (risperidone+fluoxetine). They were assessed with Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD), Treatment Emergent Symptom Scale (TESS) before treatment and in 2nd week, 4th week, 6th week and 8th week after treatment. Results The reduction rate of HAMD of combined group was the best among three groups(P<0.05), and that of fluoxetine group was better than that of risperidone(P<0.01). The significant difference in reduction rate of HAMD between combined group and other two groups was observed since 2nd week after treatment(P<0.05). No difference in scores of TESS has been observed in any time among three groups. Conclusion Risperidone can improve the efficacy of fluoxetine on depression without psychotic symptoms without increasing side effects, but itself is less effective than fluoxetine.

Objective To sudy the changes in mTOR signaling pathway in childhood aplastic anemia(AA) by detecting the expression levels of the molecules of mTOR signaling pathway in T cells,and to explore immunologoical pathogenesis of AA in children from T cell intracellular signal transduction pathway.Methods Peripheral blood samples were collected from 16 newly diagnosed severe AA(SAA) patients and 8 patiens treated with effective immunosuppressive therapy,and the findings were compared with those of 17 healthy children (normal controls) and CEM cells (positive controls).The expressions of p-Akt,p-TSC2,p-mTORC1,p-4EBP1,p-p70S6K in CD3 + T cells in peripheral blood were detected by flow cytometry(FCM).Results 1.The expressions of p-Akt,p-TSC2,p-mTORC1,p-4EBP1,pp70S6K of the newly diagnosed SAA group were higher than those of the normal control group (P ＜ 0.05),but were lower than the postive control group (CEM group) (P ＜ 0.05).The mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) of p-Akt of three groups was 8.04 ± 3.78,2.59 ± 1.01 and 20.23 ± 8.98 respectively ;p-TSC2 was 49.73 ± 19.49,16.10 ± 8.04 and 101.05 ± 29.78 respectively ; p-mTOR was 13.90 ± 9.32,2.92 ± 1.09 and 34.3 ± 19.03 ;p-4EBP1 was 142.69 ± 53.36,26.91 ± 13.70,256.01 ± 53.79 ; p-p70S6 K were 17.67 ± 10.48,3.69 ± 2.22,31.73 ± 12.85 respectively.2.The expressions of p-Akt,p-TSC2,p-mTORC1,p-4EBP1,p-p70S6K of the effective treatment groups were lower than those of the newly diagnosed SAA group (P ＜ 0.05) ; the expressions of p-Akt,p-TSC2,p-mTORC1,p-p70S6K were similar to those of the normal control group(P ＞ 0.05),but the expressions of p-4EBP1 were higher(P ＜ 0.05).The MFI was followed by 3.28 ± 1.27,16.50 ± 10.91,3.54 ± 1.66,74.89 ± 49.69 and 4.21 ± 1.69.Conclusions 1.The expressions of p-Akt,p-TSC2,p-mTORC1,p-4EBP1,p-p70S6K were increased in the newly diagnosed SAA patients,the mTOR signaling pathway was activated in SAA patients.2.The expressions of p-Akt,p-TSC2,p-mTORC1,p4EBP1,p-p70S6K were lower than those of the newly diagnosed SAA patients.The degree of activation of mTOR signaling pathway was associated with disease status.The signaling pathways may be involved in the T cells of AA of the immune abnormalities.

To identify the genotype and analyze the molecular characteristics of dengue virus strain SZ0524 isolated from serum samples of patients with early stage of dengue fever in Shenzhen in 2005 so as to explore its possible origin. The C6/36 cell line was cultivated with virus strain SZ0524 and its suspension was harvested. The type of isolated virus strain was determined by RT-semi-nested PCR and fluorescent PCR. E gene of isolated virus strain was amplified by RT-PCR and sequenced. Homology and phylogenetic tree of E gene of this dengue virus with the strains isolated from other areas were constructed. This SZ0524 strain was further identified by fluorescent PCR, and confirmed to be the type 4 virus after obtaining the 392bp band with type 4 specific primers. The homology of nucleotide sequence of E gene of SZ0524 strain with the standard type 4 dengue virus H241 strain were 99.7%, but the homology with the standard dengue virus 1,2,3 in the same fragment were 57.0%, 59.2% and 56.2% respectively. Analysis of the phylogenetic tree indicated that SZ0524 was more close to D4-73NIID and D4-61NIID strain, next to H241 strain, and they lied in the same branch of phylogenetic tree. The isolated dengue virus type 4 belonged to genotype Ⅰand the SZ0524 strain was proved to be dengue virus type 4 in the molecular level. Combined with epidemiology information, it is suggested that this case can be classified as an imported case and the SZ0524 strain may be transferred from the southeast asian region.

Objective To introduce a new minimally invasive lumbar positioning system and its positioning method as well as conduct a prospective control study on the differences in positioning time,positioning frequency and radiation exposure dose between the new positioning method and the traditional positioning method.Methods 121 patients with lumbar disc herniation combined with lumbar instability and patients with thoracolumbar vertebral fracture admitted in our hospital from May 2010 to February 2013 were randomized into two groups.68 patients in Group A had undergone the traditional positioning method before and during operation.Among the 68 patients,41 were with single-segment lesion and 27 were with two-segment lesion.53 patients in Group B had undergone the new minimally invasive lumbar positioning system before and during operation.Among the 53 patients,34 were with single-segment lesion and 19 were with two-segment lesion.There were no significant differences in gender,age,course of disease and other general information between the two groups.The positioning time,positioning frequency and radiation dose of the two groups before and during operation were compared and statistically analyzed.Results The positioning time of Group A and Group B were 8.26±3.44 min and 3.51±1.82 min respectively; the positioning frequencies were 3.57 and 1.22; the accuracy were 60.8％ and 96.2％.For the patients with single-segment lesion,the positioning time before implanting two percutaneous pedicle screws during operation were 15.12±4.69 min and 5.51±1.32 min respectively and the positioning frequency were 6.47 and 2.45.For the patients with two-segment lesion,the positioning time before implanting three percutaneous pedicle screws during operation were 24.91±7.43 min and 8.84±2.32 min respectively and the positioning frequency were 11.72 and 3.69.Moreover,the radiation dose detected at neck,chest and wrist of the surgical staff in Group A were 3.09±0.24 Gy,4.23±0.71 Gy and 5.17±0.62 Gy and that detected in Group B were 1.38±0.47 Gy,2.69±0.33 Gy and 3.21±1.05 Gy.There were significant differences in positioning time,positioning frequency and radiation dose between Group A and Group B.Conclusion The minimally invasive spine positioning system and positioning method can simplify the operative procedures and largely reduce radiation exposure,which is characterized by high positioning accuracy,short positioning time,low fluoroscopy frequency and X-ray radiation dose.
