This paper dealt with the influences of different media, temperature, light and pH to the amount of oospore formation. The results showed that millet agar, bai yun beau agar and soybean agar provided the favorable condition for oospore formation, the number of oospores was 131.6~149.6 /cm2, but a few oospores was formation on frozen pea agar. The results also suggested that the optimal conditions for oospore formation were 18℃, pH7 and darkness. The oospores failed to be formed tinder fluorescent or black light.

Objective To investigate the status and significance of KIT,PDGFRA and DOG1 gene mutation in gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST).Methods 100 GIST patients treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University between May 2002 and May 2013 were analyzed restrospectively.DNA was isolated and amplified for the all exons of KIT,PDGFRA and DOG1.Each PCR product was sequenced to find the position and type of mutation.Results KIT mutations were identified in 75 cases (75%).PDGFRA mutations were found in 16 cases (16%).No DOG1 mutations were found.The overall 5-year survival was 58.8%.Log-rank univariate survival analysis showed that the primary location,tumor size,metastasis,operational mode,type of tumor cells,invasion of the smrounding organs,invasion of the smooth muscle,mitotic counts of the tumor cells,deletions in exon 11 KIT and targeting therapy were significant prognostic factors (all P < 0.05).COX regression model showed that tumor size,metastasis,operational method,invasion of the surrounding organs,mitotic counts of the tumor cehs,deletions in exon 11 KIT and targeting therapy were related to prognosis.Conclusion KIT and PDGFRA mutations are mutually exclusive.The overexpression mechanism of DOG1 is not related to DOG1 gene mutation.The related gene mutations affect the prognosis of GIST.

Objective To detect the metabolites of non-motor functional area in patients with Parkinson disease (PD) by proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS).Methods Forty-two PD patients (PD group) tested with unified PD rating scale (UPDRS) and 20 healthy controls(normal control group) were enrolled in this study.MRI and 1H-MRS using a GE signa excite1.5T MR was obtained,and the ratios of metabolites such as N-acetylaspartate(NAA)/creatin(Cr),NAA/cholinecompounds(Cho) in the prefrontal lobe,hippocampus,cuneus gyrus and dorsal thalamus were compared.Correlations between brain metabolites and UPDRS were analyzed.Results The levels of NAA/Cr,and NAA/Cho in bilateral dorsal thalamus,cuneus gyrus,hippocampus,prefrontal lobe in PD group were significantly lower than those in normal control group (P < 0.01).The level of Cho/Cr in right hippocampus,right cuneus gyms,and right dorsal thalamus in PD group was significantly higher than that in normal control group (P < 0.05).The NAA/Cho in the left hippocampus (r =-0.388,P =0.011) and left cuneus gyrus (r =-0.325,P =0.036) was negatively correlated with UPDRS scores (P < 0.05).Conclusions There is extensive neuronal damage and some glial proliferation in the non-motor functional areas including prefrontal lobe,hippocampus,cuneus gyrus,anddorsal thalamus in the PD patients.The degree of damage in left hippocampus and left cuneus gyms is positively correlated with the severity of the disease clinically.

Objective To study the prognostic factors of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST).Methods A total of 144 GIST patients treated at the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University between January 1996 and December 2011 were analyzed restrospectively.Kaplan-Meier,log-rank test and Cox regression model were used.Results The overall 5-year survival was 59.6%.Log-rank univariate survival analysis showed that the primary location,tumor size,metastasis,operational method,type of tumor cells,invasion of the surrounding organs and tissues,invasion of the smooth muscle,cellularity of the tumor,mitotic counts of the tumor cells,Ki-67 labeling index,P53 expression and targeting therapy were significant prognostic factors (P < 0.05).Cox regression model showed that tumor size,metastasis,operational method,surrounding organs and tissues invasion,cellularity of the tumor,mitotic counts of the tumor cells,P53 and targeting therapy were essential to improve the survival.Conclusions The study suggests that early diagnosis and comprehensive treatment consisting of operation and targeting therapy can significantly improve the survival of GIST.

Objective To investigate the effects of lower limb training combined with hyperbaric oxygen on motor function in a paretic lower limb and on the ability in the activities of daily living (ADL) of hemiplegic stroke survivors. Methods A total of 297 hemiplegic stroke patients received routine interventions and then were randomly divided into 3 groups. The hyperbaric oxygen group accepted hyperbaric oxygen, the training group accepted lower limb training, and the treatment group accepted both hyperbaric oxygen and lower limb training. Evalnations were carried out pretreatment and 30 d post treatment to assess the function of the paretic lower limb and ADL ability with the Fugl-Meyer assessment ( FMA), a modified Barthel index (MBI) , Berg's balance scale (BBS) and the timed up and go test (TUGT). Results FMA, MBI, BBS and TUGT scores in all 3 groups improved significantly compared with pretreatment. On the 30th day post treatment, the scores in the treatment group were significantly better than in the other two groups. Conclusions Lower limb training combined with hyperbaric oxygen can significantly improve motor function in the paretic lower limbs of stroke patients and their ADL performance.

A three-dimensional finite element model of premaxillary bone and anterior teeth was established with ANSYS 13.0. The anterior teeth were fixed with strong stainless labial archwire and lingual frame. In the horizontal loading experiments, a horizontal retraction force of 1.5 N was applied bilaterally to the segment through hooks at the same height between 7 and 21 mm from the incisal edge of central incisor; in vertical loading experiments, a vertical intrusion force of 1.5 N was applied at the midline of lingual frame with distance between 4 and 16 mm from the incisal edge of central incisor. After loading, solution was done and displacement and maximum principle stress were calculated. After horizontal loading, lingual displacement and stress in periodontal membrane (PDM) was most homogeneous when the traction force was 14 mm from the edge of central incisor; after vertical loading, intrusive displacement and stress in PDM were most homogeneous when the traction force was 12 mm from the incisal edge of central incisor. The results of this study suggested that the location of center of resistance (CRe) of six maxillary anterior teeth is about 14 mm gingivally and 12 mm lingually to incisal edge of central incisor. The location can provide evidence for theoretical and clinical study in orthodontics.

Objective To explore relationship between excursion of blood glucose levels and cognitive performance in diabetic patients over aged 60 years.Methods A total of 108 diabetic patients over aged 60 years were recruited in this study and they wore under continuous blood glucose monitoring system (CGMS) for three days to evaluate excursion of their mean blood glucose (MBG) level and its standard deviation (SD).All the participants accepted cognitive function tests during continuous blood glucose monitoring, including mini mental status examination (MMSE), Montreal cognitive assessment (MOCA) and clock drawing test (CDT).Relationship of the SD of blood glucose level and cognitive performance in the three cognitive tests was assessed.Data were analyzed with CGMS software version 3.0.Results The SD reversely correlated with scores of MMSE (r = - 0.324, P < 0.01 ) and CDT ( r =-0.325, P = 0.001 ), but they did not significantly correlate with MOCA scores (r = -0.212, P =0.081 ).Statistically significant difference was observed between the SD and scores of all three cognitive tests adjusted for glycosylated hemoglobin Alc (HbAlc) level (r = -0.387, -0.046 and -0.292, P =0.029, <0.001 and < 0.001, respectively).The SD reversely correlated with scores of MMSE, MOCA and CDT adjusted for MBG (r= -0.314, -0.466 and -0.345, P <0.01, respectively).Results of multivariate linear regression analysis showed that the SD reversely correlated to scores of MMSE, MOCA and CDT (β = - 0.378, - 0.224 and - 0.346, all P < 0.05).Conclusions Excursion of blood glucose levels can influence their cognitive performance in diabetic patients over aged 60 years, leading to decrease in their overall cognitive function and activities as its excursion large enough.
