Objective To investigate the feasibility, safety and efficacy of the stent-assisted coil embolization for the treatment of wide-necked anterior communicating artery (ACoA) aneurysms. Methods From November 2011 to November 2014, the clinical data of the patients with wide-necked ACoA aneurysms treated by using the stent-assisted coil embolization were analyzed retrospectively. The clinical and radiographic effects were summarized. The perioperative complications were focused on. Results The ACoA wide-neck aneurysms of 29 patients were treated with stent-assisted coil embolization. Two of them abandoned the interventional treatment because of stents could not be in place and release. The immediate results of interventional treatment showed that 21 were embolized completely (78% ), 5 were near totaly embolized (19% ), and 1 was partialy embolized (3% ). Three patients had intraoperative thrombosis (recanalization achieved after thrombosis, one of them died of cerebral hemorrhage after thrombolysis). One patient suffered cerebral angiospasm, one had aneurysm rupture, and one had distal rupture of the anterior cerebral artery. Twenty-seven patients received clinical folow-up, and the folow-up time ranged from 2 to 36 months (mean 17 months). None of the patients had hemorrhagic or ischemic complications. Sixteen patients received imaging folow-up, and the folow-up ranged from 6 to 12 months (mean 7 months). None of the aneurysms had recurrence. Conclusions Stent-assisted coil embolization of wide-necked ACoA aneurysm is overal feasible, safe, and effective although there are certain risks.

Objective To investigate the role of HMGA2 expression and epithelial to mesenchymal cell transformation in the regulation of TGF -β1 in human gastric cancer cells .Methods Human gastric cancer cell SGC-7901 was treated by TGF-β1 at different time points(0,3,6,24,48,72 h).We observed the changes in cell morphology of SGC-7901 through the microscope;HMGA2 assay,E-cadherin,Vimentin protein expression wereperformedbyWesternblot;cellinvasioncapabilitywasanalyzedbytranswellchamberassay.Results (1) With the prolonged duration of action of TGF -β1,SGC-7901 changes in cell morphology ,cells gradually be-came longer and larger.(2)In the role of TGF-β1,gastric cancer cells SGC -7901 are varying degrees of HM-GA2 expression and E -cadherin、Vimentin.HMGA2 protein begun to express from 0h to 6hrs.and HMGA2 pro-tein became the strongest at 6hrs and decreased slightly from 24hrs.E-cad protein expression at 0h begun at 3hrs highest expression ,and the reduction started from 3hrs.Vimentin protein was the highest at 48hrs then gradu-ally decreased.Conclusion In the TGF-β1 induced the process of epithelial to mesenchymal cell transforma-tion in gastric cancer cells SGC -7901 ,HMGA2 protein play an important role .HMGA2 can be used as snail pro-moter,combined with Smads ,promotes the process of epithelial -mesenchymal transformation .HMGA2 may also be regulated by Wnt /β-Catenin signaling pathway on growth and apoptosis of tumor cells .

Tumor metastasis and invasion of cancer are the leading causes of death in patients .The processes of tumor metastasis and invasion involves a variety of factors in which epithelial -to-myofibroblast transition( EMT) plays an important role .Transcription factor Snail as EMT of tumor cell key regulator has played an important role .Through the study of Snail regulating EMT of tumor cell signaling pathways will help us under -stand the mechanisms of tumor invasion and metastasis better and provide a basis for finding effective targets .

Epidemiologic evidence suggests that diabetes mellitus appears to be negatively associated with abdominal aortic aneurysm formation. Diabetes mellitus may affect the physiological characteristics of the aorta and reduce the prevalence, incidence and expansion rate of abdominal aortic aneurysm. But the impact of diabetes mellitus on the rupture, operative complication and clinical outcome of abdominal aortic aneurysm is unclear. Randomized controlled trials are needed before conclusions can be drawn on the link between development and expansion of abdominal aortic aneurysm and medicines for diabetes. This review aims to analyze updated evidence of the association between diabetes mellitus and abdominal aortic aneurysm.

Objective To measure the curvatures of the distolingual root canals of permanent mandibular first molars by cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Methods The CBCT was used to collect 230 cases of mandibular first molar distalingual root from 513 patients. The images were created by 3-D reconstruction based on the BECT data. Images were analyzed by NNT image analysis software. Each tooth was captured in clinical (CV) and proximal view (PV) image, and measured by the Schneider method. Results The average curvature of the distallingual canal was (13.27 ± 8.57)° in CV, and (30.96 ± 11.63)° in PV. Most of the distallingual root in the buccolingual view was mild bending or moderate bending , and the proximal view was severe bending. The distal lingual root bending was the most common in the crown third of the root , next in the apical third of the root, in the middle third of the root. Conclusion CBCT is an effective tool for the detection of additional distolingual roots and is a valuable aid for dentists in root canal treatment.

Postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) is the most common complication after cardiac surgery, which leads to hemodynamics disorder, prolongs hospitalization and increases mortality. The underlying mechanisms behind POAF are associated with cardiomyocyte injury, sympathetic activation and inflammation. The prediction of POAF is based on correlated index from pre-, intra-and post-surgery. POAF can be treated by rhythm and heart rate control as well as and antithrombotic therapy.

The blood-brain barrier (BBB) exerts its central nervous system (CNS) protective function as it hinders the delivery of diagnostic and therapeutic agents to the brain. With the development of nanotechnology during the last thirty years, the nanocarriers for delivering drugs make it possible to transport drugs across the BBB. The brain-targeted drug delivery system usually consists of two parts: nanocarriers and brain-targeted strategies. In this review, several kinds of nanocarriers are introduced for brain-targeted drug delivery. We focus on several possible strategies for brain-targeting and comment on their advantages and disadvantages in application.

The mechanisms underlying early neurological deterioration (END) after ischemic stroke are not clear.There are no reliable predictive factors and effective preventive measures for END.The glutamatemediated excitotoxicity plays a very important role in the cascade reaction of ischemic events.High level of glutamate in plasma is one of the important predictors for END.Studies have shown that the polymorphism in the promoter of the excitatory amino acid transporter-2 gene is a potential cause for individual susceptibility to END.Some therapeutic strategies of interrupting the glutamatergic pathways may be as the strategies of intervention END.

The taxol s effect of inducing apoptosis is mainly related to its ability to promote tubulin polymerization and prevent tubulin chain depolarization. Drug resistance is the main restriction factor for clinical usage of taxol. Some basic and clinical studies support that poor response to taxol and poor prognosis are related to overexpression of β tubulin Ⅲ.

Objective: To explore the mediation of stress between perfectionism and life satisfaction.Methods: 317 college students were surveyed with questionnaires.The data were analyzed by hierarchical regression.Results: ①Regarding general perfectionism,both male and female students' stress fully mediated negative perfectionism and life satisfaction but did not mediate positive perfectionism and life satisfaction;②Regarding domain-specific perfectionism,male students' appearance stress fully mediated related perfectionism and satisfaction,but for female students its mediation was partial.Both male and female students' personality stress fully mediated personality perfectionism and satisfaction.Mediation models involved academic,love,interpersonal relationship perfectionism and their related satisfaction were not found.Conclusion: The mediations of stress between perfectionism and life satisfaction are different in different life domains.
