Space Medicine & Medical Engineering 2006;0(06):-
Objective To explore the function of fusiform in learning process according to the change of its activation volume and intensity.Methods Ten Chinese normal university students with Guangdong dialect performed the verb generation.fMRI was used to scan the activities of brain.Deconvolution and ANOVA were used to deal with the data of individuals and groups respectively.Results After practice,the activations of the most brain areas were weakened in different degree of great quantities along with practice and the activation of fusiform disappeared.Conclusion Learning leads to the change of brain activation.The function of fusiform is not specific,but general neural activation during learning process.

Objective To investigate the animal model of acute lung injury (ALI) induced by caudal vein injection of trypsin in rats and to evaluate the model.Methods The model of lung injury was established by caudal vein injection of trypsin in rats.The rats were killed at the time point of 3 h,6 h,12 h,24 h,and 24 h and then the pathological changes of structure of lungs,peripheral blood neutrophil count,arterial blood gas analysis and lung wet/dry (W/D) weight ratio in rats were measured and observed.Results The results of hematoxylin eosin (HE) staining showed that there was no obvious pathological changes in lung tissues of the control group,while alveolar and pulmonary septal edema,thickening,and a large number of inflammatory cells infiltration in the lung tissues of the model group.Compared to the control group,the peripheral blood neutrophil counts,W/D and PaCO2 were significantly increased,PaO2 was significantly decreased (P <0.01).There was significant differences in the number of peripheral blood neutrophils,PaCO2,W/D and PaO2 between the model groups (P < 0.01).Conclusions The rat model of ALI induced by trypsin can successfully simulate the lung damage caused by the release of a large number of trypsin when severe acute pancreatitis occurred.

Objective To evaluate patient outcomes of sustained low flow oxygen inhalation therapy with humidifying and non-humidifying oxygen.Methods Randomized controlled trial (RCT) about sustained low flow oxygen therapy with humidifying and non-humidifying oxygen were searched from China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI),Wanfang database,VIP database,PubMed on line.Literatures were searched from the database had been established till now.The primary outcome of the rate of unpleasant respiratory symptoms,oxygen humidification cylinder pollution as well as secondary lower respiratory tract infections were attached importance to.Two reviewers evaluated the literatures independently according to the RCT authentic assessment manual of Cochrane Collaboration.Negotiation took as the measure to attach an agreement.RevMan 5.2 was used to analyses the result of the study.Results A total of 15 met the inclusion criteria,Meta-analysis showed that humidifying and non-humidifying oxygen was not statistically significant with the rate of unpleasant respiratory symptoms (P > 0.05).Non-humidifying group was better than humidity group at the rate of oxygen humidification cylinder pollution and the secondary lower respiratory symptoms (Z=2.50,2.44,P < 0.05).Conclusions Low flow nasal oxygen inhalation therapy may not have to use humidifying oxygen.

Background and purpose:In recent years, epigenetics research has become a new direction of cancer research. A large number of results have shown that the abnormal changes of epigenetic modifications have close connection with cancer. Genome-wide epigenetic modifications have become new markers for cancer. This study aimed to investigate the methylation of the promoter ofDBC1 gene in cervical cancer tissues of Uyghur women in Xinjiang, to explore the correlation between the gene methylation and the infection of HPV, and to evaluate whether it can be used as a tool with high sensitivity and specificity for cervical cancer screening.Methods:This study detected the infection of HPV16, 18 in 43 normal cervical tissues, 35 cervical intraepithelial neoplasia tissues and 54 cervical cancer tissues using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method. The methylation of the promoter ofDBC1 gene in above-mentioned tissues was detected by the methylation-specific PCR method. The expression ofDBC1 at mRNA level was measured by real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RTFQ-PCR) in 10 methylation-negative normal cervical tissues and 10 methylation-positive cervical cancer tissues.Results:In normal cervical tissues, CIN tissues and cervical cancer tissues, the infection ratios of HPV16 were 18.6%, 34.3% and 68.5%, respectively; the infection ratios of HPV18 were 2.3%, 8.6% and 16.7%, respectively; and the methylation ratios ofDBC1 gene were 23.3%, 40.0%, 87.0%, respectively. In 79 high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (CINⅡ and Ⅲ) and cervical cancer tissues, 50 of 79 were infected with HPV16/18, while 29 of 79 were negative. The methylation ratio ofDBC1 gene was 88.0% in HPV16/18 infection positive group while the methylation ratio was 55.2% in negative group (P<0.05). The expression ofDBC1 gene at mRNA level in 10 methy- lation-positive cervical cancer tissues was significantly lower than that in the 10 methylation-negative normal cervical tissues (P<0.05).Conclusion:The methylation ofDBC1 gene may become a molecular marker to detect cervical cancer of Uyghur women in Xinjiang.DBC1 gene methylation combined with HPV16/18 infection test can be used to aid diagnosis of cervical cancer.

Objective:
To investigate the clinical characteristics, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of discordant lymphoma.
Methods:
The clinical data of one patient with discordant lymphoma at the PLA Strategic Support Force Characteristic Medical Center were retrospectively analyzed, and the related literatures were reviewed.
Results:
The patient was treated for thrombocytopenia and the examination showed splenomegaly. After hormone treatment, the platelet rebounded and thrombocytopenia occurred during hormone reduction. Splenectomy was performed. Postoperative pathological diagnosis of splenic marginal lymphoma was made and observed. Axillary lymph node enlargement occurred nine months later. Pathological diagnosis of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma was made by using lymph node biopsy, and the disease condition was alleviated after immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy.
Conclusions
Discordant lymphoma is rare and shows no special clinical manifestations. Its diagnosis should rely on pathological examination. Immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy may be more effective.
