Purpose: To evaluate the effect of radiotherapy and to detect the prognostic factors for residual and recurrent foci after surgery of thyroid gland cancers. Materials and Methods: 109 patients with residual or recurrent foci of thyroid cancers after surgery were treated with radiotherapy. Results:The overall 5-,10-, 15-, 20- and 25- year survival rates were 93.6%, 91.7% , 88.7%, 87.6% and 87.6% and the 5-, 10-, 15-, 20- and 25- year survival rates with no evidence of disease were 90.8%, 89.8% ,85.6%, 84.1% and 84.1%, respectively. The clinical stage was the main factor and patient's age at diagnosis, patient's sex, histopathological types and radiation dose were also the prognostic factors. Conclusion:Radiotherapy is beneficial to residual and recurrent foci after surgery of thyroid cancer. The optimum radiation dose is 45～65 Gy.

Objective To study the anatomical feature s of the retroperitoneal cavity around kidney under laparoscope and to provide ana tomical guidance for laparoscopic surgery. Methods Lapar oscopic renal and ureteral operations were performed on 241 patients (145 men an d 96 women; age range,16-75 years;mean age,45.3 years).Through the videos and ph otographs of these operations,the anatomical features were analyzed.The atlas wa s drawn and surgical access was designed. Results Under laparoscope lateral conal fascia continues from the fascia of quadratus lumborum at its lateral border.This fascia covers posterior lamella of Gerota’s fascia and fuses into transversalis fascia beneath peritoneum. Fusion fascia lies befor e anterior lamella of Gerota’s fascia. It extends laterally and disappears grad ually to the lateral reflexion of peritoneum.The plane between fusion fascia and anterior lamella of Gerota's fascia, the plane between lateral conal fascia and posterior lamella of Gerota’s fascia, the plane before the quadratus lumborum and psoas major, are all vessel-free planes.Lateral border of colon,peritoneum and fusion fascia form a triangle lateral to colon.Fusion fascia,lateral conal f ascia and Gerota’s fascia form a vessel-free triangle. Conclusions Dissection through the vessel-free planes prevents laparoscopic op erations from bleeding and organ injury.Full understanding of the laparoscopic a natomical features of the retroperitoneal cavity around kidney provides the anat omic theoretical basis for laparoscopic operations.

Objective To explore the clinical characteristics of vestibular migraine in patients from the clinic and ward of the neurological department in comprehensive hospitals.Methods A total of 226 patients diagnosed as vestibular migraine were enrolled in the study.Clinical data were collected and analyzed,including the medical history,clinical symptoms and signs,as well as the result of diagnostic examinations.Results The mean age of the patients at the visit was 51.7 years old,with the male to female ratio of 1:1.48.The occurrence of vertigo and migraine varied in order,with 53.1％ (120/226) patients presented migraine several years before vertigo.The duration time of vertigo ranged from seconds to days,with 1.8％ (4/226) patients presented no headache during the whole course.Several punctate long T2 or high FLARE (fluid attented inversion recovery) signals scattered at the centrum ovale.Conclusions Vestibular migraine has complex mechanism and presents multiple clinical manifestations with certain regularities of the onset.Differential diagnosis should be made from the similar diseases.

Objective To observe the inhibition of amikacin in vitro on platelet aggregation and blood coagulation tests, and to study its effects on hemostasis and the related mechanisms.Methods Plateletrich plasma and platelet-poor plasma from donors were mixed with different concentration of amikacin, which was divided into four groups:0 mg/L, 30 mg/L, 91 mg/L and 910 mg/L group.The maximial ratio of platelet aggregation induced by ADP were measured with Platelet Aggregation Analyzer.The expression levels of P-selectin, GP Ⅱ b/Ⅲ a and Fg-R were determined with Flow Cytometer.The PT, APTT, TT and Fg of platelet-poor plasma were detected with Blood Coagulation Analyzer. The four concentration of amikacin mentioned above and two anticoagulants (62.5 U/ml of sodium heparin and 109 mmol/L of sodium citrate)were interacted with fresh whole blood, in which the blood CT and plasma Ca2+ were detected. Blood samples were collected from 10 patients with acute lower respiratory tract infection before and 30 minutes after routine amikcin treatment respectively.The maximial ratio of platelet aggregation, the expression levels of P-selectin, GPⅡ b/Ⅲa and Fg-R induced by ADP were measured; while PT, APTT, CT and plasma Ca2+ were determined.Results At 30 mg/L of amikacin group, the maximal ratios of platelet aggregation (65.8±3.9)%, the expression levels of P-selectin (9.2 ± 1.0)% and Fg-R (12.6 ± 1.7)% were statistically lower than those [(88.0 ±4.6%, (16.1 ± 1.3)% and (31.0 ±2.5)%]at 0 mg/L of amikacin group ( t = 9.442,8.432,9.993,P ＜ 0.01 ).At 30 mg/L of amikacin group, the APTT (80.5 ±6.8) s and CT ( 857 ± 66) s were significantly higher than those [(33.0 ± 3.6) s and (447 ± 35 ) s] at 0 mg/L of amikacin group ( t = 11.312, 13.211, P ＜ 0.01 ). There was a negative correlation between amikacin concentration and maximial ratio of platelet aggregation ( r = - 0.832, P ＜ 0.05 ), but a positive correlation between amikacin concentration and inhibitory rates of platelet aggregation ( r = 0.939, P ＜0.05) was observed, as well as APTT (r ＞0.870, P＜0.05).At 30 mg/L, 91 mg/L, and 910 mg/L of amikacin groups, the P-selectin and Fg-R expression were remarkably inhibited with a dose-dependent manner, the CT was notably enhanced [Fwithin subjects =21.44, 26.24, ( ＞29.81 ), P ＜0.01].At 0 mg/L,30 mg/L, 91 mg/L and 910 mg/L of amikacin groups, the PT values were ( 14.7 ± 1.9) s, ( 15.2 ± 1.7) s,(15.6±1.5) s and (22.1 ±2.1) s, respectively (F=8.21,P＜0.05), but there was no markeddifference for the levels of GP Ⅱ b/Ⅲ a, TT, Fg and plasma Ca2+ among the four groups ( P ＞ 0.05 ).After 30 minutes of amikacin treatment, the maximial ratio of platelet aggregation (51.6 ± 10.1)%, the expression levels of P-selectin (6.8 ± 1.8) % and Fg-R ( 20.1 ± 5.8 ) % were significantly lower than those [(66.8 ± 11.4)%, ( 10.9 ±3.1 )% and (28.5 ±7.4)%] before amikacin treatment, but APTT (49.8 ±5.9) s and CT (660 ±59) s were remarkably higher than those [(26.9 ±3.8) s and (410 ±45) s] before amikacin treatment, respectively ( t = 5.456,8.875,7.423,10.012,11.322, P ＜ 0.01 ), while the GP Ⅱ b/Ⅲ a expression, PT and Ca2+ concentration had no significant changes ( P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions There are inhibitory effects of amikacin on platelet aggregation mainly through the inhibition of both fibrinogen receptor activation and secretion reaction of activated platelet. Amikacin may also inhibit pathway of coagulation system factor to prevent blood coagulation.Therefore, risk of hemorrhage may be investigated in the patients with amikacin for anti-infection treatment.

Objective To isolate specific humanized anti-D-dimer scFv(single chain Fv) antibody from scFv phage libraries. Methods Isolate anti-D-dimer positive clones from Tomlinson I + J phage libraries by three rounds of panuing, then sequence monoclonal genes by bideoxy-mediated chain termination and express soluble scFv antibody; Pick out anti-D-dimer antibodies with high specificity and affinity by ELISA.Results After three rounds of selection from human scFv phage libraries Tomlinson I and J, 38 monclonal specific anti-D-dimer scFv fragments were selected. By polyclonal and monoclonal phage ELISA and gene sequencing, 20 different full-length monoclonal scFv phages were identified, the result of soluble scFv ELISA showed that 20 full-length monoclonal scFv were expressed smoothly. According to the result of soluble scFv ELISA, in 5 scFv antibodies with high value of A450 selected, 3 scFv antibody fragments showed high specific and affinity. Conclusion Antibody phage display was an effective, rapid method to isolate anti-D-dimer antibodies with high specificity and affinity.

Objective To explore the clinical features, imaging and their diagnosis vaule of Baló's concentric sclerosis (BCS). Methods The clinical manifestation, laboratory examination, neuroimaging characteristics, pathology and follow-up of 12 (2 outpatients and 10 inpatients) cases of BCS were analyzed retrospectively. Results The onset age of 12 patients (male 4, female 8) ranged from 8 to 54 years old (mean 36.8 years). Unconcerned and slowness response were common in the disease onset (7 cases).Other symptoms and signs such as hypophrenia ( 10 cases), limitation of limb or hand movement (8 cases),urinary and fecal incontinence (7 cases), hypo-myodynamia (7 cases), positive pyramidal sign (6 cases)were not rare in course of disease. Eight cases underwent the examination of cerebrospinal fluid myelin basic protein, which increased in 7 cases. Demyelinating change and perivascular inflammatory infiltration were shown in 6 brain biopsies. The involvements of multi-lesions were found in 11 cases. Four patients underwent CT scanning and all the cases showed with hypodense lesions and couldn' t be enhanced. On MRI, all cases appeared round or round-like in shape. Enhanced lesions showed ring-like or half-ting-like shape (8 cases) and concentric ring (3 cases). It's easy to be misdiagnosed as brain tumor (8 cases).Conclusions BCS is a kind of demyelinating disease of subacute or chronic onset accompanied with cognitive disorder being the most common initiating symptoms. It's prone to be misdiagnosed. Diagnosis depends on MRI and corticosteroid treatment is effective. BCS has a good prognosis and presents with benign clinical course.
