Objective To study the relationship between the expression of MAGE-10 genes and the clinical parameters of metastasis and recurrence of patients with Hepatocellular carainama (HCC). Methods The expression of MAGE-10 genes in tumor tissues,liver tissues adjacent to tumor and hepatocirrhosis tissues was examined by RT-PCR method.The relationship between positive expression rate of MAGE-10 genes and clinical parameters of metastasis and recurrence (such as AFP, AFU, Anti-HCV, HBsAg, AFPmRNA, diameter of tumor) in patients with HCC were studied. Results The positive expression rate of MAGE-10 genes significantly higher in tumor tissues than that in the surrounding tumor tissues (51 6% vs. 0%, ? 2=18 95,P 0 05).There was no expression of MAGE-10 in hepatocirrhosis tissues of 10 cases. Conclusions There was a high frequency of MAGE-10 genes expression in HCC,but it is unrelated to the tumor markers,metastasis and recurrence of HCC.

Acute ischemic stroke is a common disease serevely threatening the public health. The main management involves intravenous thrombolysis, intra-arterial thrombolysis and mechanical embolectomy. Recently, endovascular mechanical embolectomy is attracted more attention because it provides a good outcome for patients either ineligible not responsible for IV thrombolytic therapy. The article reviews the relative aspects with summerization in this field.

Objective To summarize the therapeutic efficacy of electrocoagulation for varicose veins of the lower extremities.Methods Totally 168 cases(238 limbs)of varicose veins of the lower extremities were treated with electrocoagulation in our department from April 2000 to April 2007.Through a small ankle incision,electrocoagulation probe was inserted ascendingly into the groin via the great saphenous vein.After high ligation of the great saphenous vein,the varicose veins and great saphenous trunk were electrocoagulated.Results The patients were discharged from hospital in one to two days after the operation.None of them had incisional infection.The ulcers at the ankle were healed in four weeks.Postoperative complications in this series,included Ⅰ degree burn injury in one limb,Ⅱ degree burn injury in one limb,superficial phlebitic pain in two limbs(two cases);and numbness around the ankle in 14 limbs(10 cases).Totally 148 cases with 208 limbs were followed up for 2 to 9 years with a mean of 6.6 years.During the period,the rate of recurrent varicosity was 3.4%(7/208);and healing rates of ache,dermatitis and eczema,ankle pigment,swelling around the calf and ankle were 95.3%(162/170),85.7%(12/14),41.7%(15/36)and 36.4%(16/44)respectively.Conclusion Electrocoagulation is a minimally invasive and effective method for the treatment of varicose veins of the lower extremities,with quick recovery and low rate of recurrence.

BACKGROUND: Degenerated cervical intervertebral discs can release many kinds of cytokines and inflammatory mediums, which plays an important role in onset and development of cervical syndrome.OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of anti-cytokine Chinese herb combined with western drug (anti-hyperosteogeny capsule combined with glucosamine hydrochloride capsule) and gene therapy, on the contents of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) of degenerated cervical intervertebral discs in rabbits.DESIGN: Randomized controlled observation.SETTING: Department of Orthopaedics and Central Laboratory of Hebei People's Hospital.MATERIALS: The experiment was carried out in the Central Laboratory of Hebei People's Hospital from March 2003 to January 2004. A total of 35 New Zealand rabbits of both genders were selected and divided into 7groups according to randomly digital table: normal control group, shallowlayer model group, whole-layer model group, shallow-layer medicine group,whole-layer medicine group, shallow-layer gene group and whole-layer gene group. There were 5 rabbits in each group.METHODS: Except normal control group, rabbits in other 6 groups were used to establish models of dynamic dysequilibrium of cervical vertebra through cutting muscles of cervical back to induce degeneration of cervical intervertebral discs. Superficial group of muscle in cervical region was resected in shallow-layer groups, and both superficial and deep group of muscle was resected in whole-layer groups. ① Seven months after operation, rabbits in medicine groups were respectively treated with 1.1 g/kg anti-hyperosteogeny capsule (consisting of gouji, gusuibu, jixueteng, laifuzi,niuxi, nvzhenzi, roucongrong, shudihuang and yinyanghuo, etc.; Jiangsu Kangyuan Pharmaceutical Company Limited) and 0.06 g/kg glucosamine (Shanxi Zhongyuanwei Pharmaceutical Company Limited), which was dissolved into 20 mL distilled water. The medicine was administrated twice a day for 1 month. ② After anesthetization of rabbits in gene groups, recombinant plasmid DNA combined with transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) was injected to C2-3, C3-4 and C4-5 intervertebral disc (20μL per intervetebral disk). Eight months after modeling, rabbits in each group were sacrificed and C3-4 and C4-5 intervertebral disc was used as samples. In addition, contents of IL-1β and TNF-α were measured with double-antibodies-sandwich-ELISA method.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Contents of IL-1β and TNF-α in cervical intervertebral discs of rabbits at 8 months after modeling.RESULTS: All 35 rabbits were involved in the final analysis. Eight months after modeling, for contents of IL-1β and TNF-α, shallow-layer model group was higher than normal control group (P ＜ 0.05-0.01); shallow-layer medicine group and shallow-layer gene group were obviously low er than shallow-layer model group (P ＜ 0.05); whole-layer medicine group and whole-layer gene group were lower than whole-layer model group (P＜ 0.05-0.01).CONCLUSION: The degenerated intervertebral discs can release many kinds of cytokine and inflammatory mediators which can enhance the degeneration of cervical intervertebral discs. Antihyperosteogeny capsule combined with glucosamine hydrochloride capsule and gene therapy can obviously reduce the contents of IL-1β and TNF-o in degenerated cervical intervertebral discs.

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical and pathological characteristics of dermatomyositis with muscular perifascicular atrophy (PFA).MethodsA series of 104 consecutive patients clinically and pathologically diagnosed as dermatomyositis by muscle biopsy in our laboratory from December,2003 to August,2011,were enrolled in this study. Muscle biopsy of all the enrolled patients had shown PFA of muscle fibers.ResultsAmong the 104 patients,34 were males and 70 were females with a mean age of 45 years old.Among them,8 cases had normal electromyogram;42 had normal serum creatine kinase level;11 were diagnosed as carcinoma;75 were found to be combined with interstitial lung disease (ILD).Based on morphologic changes of muscle biopsy,they were divided into pure PFA group with 54 cases and PFA plus focal damage group with 50 cases.Compared with the pure PFA group,there was prominent mononuclear cell infiltration into perimysial intermediate sized vessels and membrane attack complement (MAC) deposition in the intramuscular capillaries in the PFA plus group.Skin biopsy had been taken in 12 cases together with muscle biopsy and had shown the border effectof both PFA and interface dermatitis in muscle and skin.ConclusionsOur study suggests that chronic immune vascular damage and insufficiency in dermatomyositis may cause ischemia and focal myofiber damage in watershed regions. The incidence of ILD in our dermatomyositis patients with PFA is high.

Objective To explore the structure of Chinese personality based on natural language and to develop a Chinese personality vocabulary data bank.Methods Based on the sub-factors of Chinese personality scale(QZPS),Chinese personality assessment inventory 2(CPAI-2) and Chinese personality five factors inventory (CPFFI),a self-reported personality questionnaire with 116 items was developed.An exploratory factory analysis and parallel analysis were made to the data collected from 1455 Chinese participants.Results A Chinese Personality Seven Factors Inventory (CPSFI) was developed,which included seven factors with 52 items.51.63％ of the total variance of the seven factors was explained and the internal reliability coefficient was 0.800,while the internal reliability coefficients among the factors were between 0.663-0.912.The retest reliability coefficients of the factors were between 0.700-0.874 (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Outgoing and emotion are the core contents of the crossculture personalities.Most of the factors in QZPS,CPAI-2 and CPFFI can be found in the seven factors structure,of which the structure is clearer.
