Objective To investigate risk factors for feeding intolerance of preterm infants under the reactive scope model guidance, and provided empirical evidence for effective prevention and treatment of feeding intolerance in preterm infants. Methods Checked the cases of 242 preterm infants been treated in the neonatal department from August 2014 to January 2015 according to the order of admission. Through literature reviewing and expert consultation, the clinical observation table was designed based on the reactive scope model, and risk factors for feeding intolerance of preterm infants were investigated by single factor analysis and logistic regression analysis from the feeding intolerance (FI) group and non-FI group. Results The incidence of feeding intolerance in preterm infants was 33.8%(70/207), feeding intolerance in preterm infants often occurred during the period of being fed within 72 hours, and the clinical manifestations were gastric retention, abdominal distension and emesis. Single factor analysis showed that gestational age, birth weight, fetal distress, aminophylline application, intrauterine infection, breast milk feeding and twice stool interval were the related factors to the feeding intolerance. Logistic regression analysis showed that gestational age and birth weight were the protective factors of FI. Fetal distress, aminophylline application, twice stool interval >3 d were the risk factors of FI. Conclusions Gestational age and birth weight were the protective factors of FI. Fetal distress, aminophylline application, twice stool interval>3 d were the risk factors of FI.

Objective To compare two verification tools for intensity modulated radiotherapy (IM-RT) and to investigate the feasibility of a new three dimensitional verification tool. Methods Five patients receiving IMRT were randomly chosen for the quality assurance plans with MapCHECK Model 1175 (SunNu-clear, Melbourne, FL,USA) and Delta4(ScandiDos, Sweden) by using Philips Pinnacle 8.0D treatment planning system. Dose verification was measured with the Varian Clinical 23EX LA. Results The overall average percentages of pass points in DD2% DTA2 mm, DD3% DTA3 mm and DD4% DTA4 mm were 84.7%, 97. 1% and 99.3% with MapCHECK Model 1175, 86.2%, 98.2% and 99.6% with Delta4 re-spectively. The differences were statisticically significant (t = 3.94, P = 0.003 ; t = 3.17, P = 0.011 ; t = 3.05 ,P =0.014,respectively). The gantry angle was changed to zero degree with MapCHECK, but not with Delta. The effects were embodied with Delta, such as the gravity on leaf position accuracy of MLC, the treat-ment table on dose distribution and the earth magnetism on dose system. Conclusion Delta4 is an ideal verification tool for intensity modulated radiotherapy.

Objective To establish a stable HCV full-length genome replication cell model which is labeled with reporter gene and easyly to quantify intracellular HCV proteins and RNA level. Methodsneo gene was inserted into Luc-JC1 to make Luc-JC construct. Luc-JC RNA was obtained by in vitro transcription and then delivered into Huh7 cells by transfection. G418-resistant clones of Huh7 cells were obtained by selection. Clones of HCV full-length genome replication cell were confirmed by luciferase activity assay, Western blot and cleaveage of eYFP-MAVS by HCV NS3/4A protease. Then, HCV replication cell colonies were treated by different dose IFN-α in order to observe the change of luciferase activity, HCV protein and RNA level. Results At 3-4 weeks post-transfection, visible colonies were selected and stained by crystal violet. Luciferase activity and HCV NS3, NS5A protein were detected by luciferase activity assay and Western blot, respectively. Subcellular localization of eYFP-MAVS transferred from mitochondria to cytoplasms by cleavage of NS3/4A protease in cell colonies. Luciferase activity, HCV protein and RNA diminished obviously after IFN-α treatment. Conclusion A stable HCV full-length genome replication cell model labeled by reporter gene was successfully established and reporter activity can be used to indicate level of HCV proteins and RNA in cells. This cell model is a useful tool for the study on HCV pathogenesis and the screening of antiviral drugs.

Objective To explore the difference between interval storage and continuous storage of dynamic imagines in contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) quantitative analysis. Methods Two CEUS were performed for each of fifteen participants using interval storage and continuous storage of dynamic images. A number of parameters were analyzed including rising time (RT), time to peak (TTP), mean transit time (MTT), maximum intensity (IMAX), and area under the curve (AUC). The disk usage and time consumpation were also compared for analysis. Results There were no differences in RT, TTP, MTT, IMAX, AUC between the two groups (t=1.028, 1.012, 0.558, 0.223, 0.556, P=0.322, 0.329, 0.586, 0.826, 0.587). There was significantly positive correlations between them (r=0.989, 0.992, 0.867, 0.865, 0.947, all P<0.05). The disk usage in interval storage group was about 1/3 of that in contiunous storage group. And the interval storage method could saved 25-30 min in each case. Conclusion Interval storage is worthy for further clinical application on the groud of its disk usage sparing and less time consumpation without compromising the image quality for analysis.

BACKGROUNDTo investigate the relationship between micrometastasis of bone marrow and neoadjuvant chemotherapy and prognosis in patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

METHODSSixty-five patients with stage III NSCLC were randomly divided into group A (32 patients treated with preoperative neoadjuvant chemotherapy plus operation) and group B (33 patients treated with operation and postoperative chemotherapy as control group). Expression of CK19 mRNA and CEA mRNA was detected in bone marrow samples from the rib segments of all patients obtained from operation by RT-PCR. The relationship between survival duration and CK19 and CEA expression was analyzed.

RESULTSThe positive rates of CK19 mRNA expression were 18.8%(6/32) and 45.5%(15/33) in group A and B, respectively (P=0.033), and the positive rates of CEA were 25.0%(8/32) and 51.5% (17/33) in group A and B, respectively (P= 0.041). A significant positive correlation was observed between CK19 and CEA expression (r s=0.671,P < 0.001). The response rates of neoadjuvant chemotherapy were 0%(0/5) and 56.5%(13/23) in patients with CK19(+)/CEA(+) and CK19(-)/CEA(-), respectively (P=0.044), and the median survival duration were 11 and 27 months, respectively (P=0.000 6). Cox's model showed that the response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy and the expression of CK19 or CEA were significantly prognostic factors in group A.

CONCLUSIONSNeoadjuvant chemotherapy can reduce the possibility of bone marrow micrometastasis in stage III NSCLC patients. Bone marrow micrometastasis may indicate a poorer prognosis for NSCLC.

etabolic response to radiotherapy may predict the prognosis of paitents with locally advanced NPC. The prognosis is poor for patients with high FDG uptake before and after radiotherapy or SUV max-NSUV max-P .

OBJECTIVETo study the incidence of leukocytosis and retinoic acid (RA) syndrome in newly diagnosed and relapsed acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) patients treated with arsenic trioxide (ATO).

METHODSThirty patients with newly diagnosed or relapsed APL received ATO for remission induction at the dose of 10 mg/d. RA syndrome was defined when patient was with one or more of the following signs or symptoms: fever, dyspnea, serous cavity effusion, muscular pain, pulmonary infiltration, weight gain, or pulmonary infiltration on chest X-ray.

RESULTSTwenty-three (77% ) patients achieved complete remission, mean time to remission was 37.1 days. Leukocytosis was observed in 14 (47%) patients, mean time to leukocytosis was 12.7 days, median baseline leukocyte count for patients with leukocytosis was 3.1 x 10(9)/L, which was higher than that for patients who did not develop leukocytosis (2.6 x 10(9)/L, z = -2.635, P = 0.008). No other cytotoxic therapy was administered, and the leukocytosis resolved in all cases. The RA syndrome was observed in 9 (30%) patients, mean time to diagnose of RA syndrome was 13.9 days, median baseline leukocyte count for patients with RA syndrome was 3.6 x 10(9)/L, which was higher than that for patients who did not develop RA syndrome (2.6 x 10(9)/L, z = -1.909, P = 0.046). No patient died of RA syndrome.

CONCLUSIONLeukocytosis and RA syndrome are associated with ATO and baseline leukocyte count respectively, and there is distinct link between leukocytosis and RA syndrome.
