Objective:Two experiments were performed to research the effects of visual field factor on pseudoneglect and to test the theories about neglect and pseudoneglect.Methods:Experiment 1 employed the landmark task and greyscales task in tachistoscopic and forced-choice conditions.Experiment 2 employed the greyscales task and tachistoscopic visual three-field technique.Results:Experiment 1 manifested that greyscales had no crossover effect;the length factor had effect on the greyscales task as the landmark task,but it only affected the bias magnitude,not the error direction.Experiment 2 indicated that the main effect of visual field was significant:when the greyscales were presented in the middle or right,pseudoneglect manifested,but when in the left,pseudoneglect vanished.Conclusion:The results provide evidence supporting the hypothesis that the perceptual distortion derives from the attentional process.

Purpose To investigate the protein expression of p53 and E-cadherin in gastric adenocarcinoma and the effects of them and the clinicopathological parameters on prognosis of patients.Methods Expression of p53,E-cadherin in 150 cases of gastric adenocarcinoma was detected by tissue microarray and immunohistochemistry.The effects of them and the clinicopathological parameters on the prognosis of patients were studied by Kaplan-Meier method to calculate and compare the cumulative survival rate and postoperative mean survival time.Multivariate analysis was also performed by COX regression.Results The positive rate of p53 and E-cadherin expression in 150 cases of gastric adenocarcinoma was 31.3% and 91.3%,respectively.74 cases were followed up, and the 1-,3-,and 5-year survival rates were 83.8%,70.3% and 63.5%,respectively.The invasion, lymph node status and pTNM stages were prognostic factors;multivariate analysis revealed that p53,age and lymph node status were independent prognostic invasion, lymph node status and pTNM stages are important prognostic factors in gastric adenocarcinoma. Nevertheless, E-cadherin and histological classification are not prognostic factors.

Objective To study the effects of salt and cooking oil intervention among hypertensive patients on knowledge-attitude-practice. Method Three thousand hypertensive patients from 20 community health service centers in Shenzhen were chosen by multi-stage cluster random sampling method. Salt measuring spoons and scaled oil pots were provided during six-month health intervention. Before and after the six-months health intervention, 2 976 and 2 864 valid questionnaires were collected respectively. After intervention, 40 families were randomly selected to perform an investigation of cooking oil and salt weighing during 3 d 24 h. Result Before the intervention, the rates of awareness on the intake of salt and cooking oil were 29.94% and 16.23% respectively. After intervention, the rates increased to 88.58% (P<0.000 1) and 84.29%(P<0.000 1) respectively. The rates of restriction on the intake of salt and cooking oil were 62.97% and 59.07%, respectively, after the intervention, the rates were 97.14% and 96.79% (P<0.000 1), respectively. By using the salt measuring spoons and scaled oil pots, the intake of cooking oil and salt reached the recommended amount in Chinese dietary guideline. Conclusion The implementation of health education combined with appropriate tools could promote the knowledge and behavior of the salt and cooking oil consumption.

Objective To investigate the dedifferentiation of neuroglial cells and its induction after optic nerve injury. Methods Adult male SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups the normal control group,the injury group,the transplantation group and the microcrush and transplantation group.Optic nerves were harvested at days 3,7,14 and 28 after the operation.HE staining was used to count the number of neuroglial cells.Immunohistochemistry,Western blotting and in situ hybridization histochemistry were employed together with computerized image analysis to evaluate the expressions of Nestin,GFAP,MBP,NF,BDNF,Nogo-A and Nogo-A mRNA.Immunofluorescence double staining was used to detect the co-expression of Nestin and GFAP or Nestin and MBP. Results The number of cells only increased at day 7 after the nerve injury, the expressions of Nestin,MBP,Nogo-A and Nogo-A mRNA were up-regulated,the expressions of GFAP,NF and BDNF were down-regulated,and some Nestin-GFAP positive cells and a few of Nestin-MBP positive cells were detected in the injury group.Compared with the injury group,the number of cells was increased sometime after the nerve injury;the expressions of Nestin,GFAP,BDNF and NF were up-regulated,the expressions of MBP,Nogo-A and Nogo-A mRNA were down-regulated,and the number of Nestin-GFAP positive cells increased in the transplantation group and the microcrush and transplantation group.Conclusion After optic nerve injury,some astrocytes undergo dedifferentiation while the macroglial cells display a gene expression pattern that is unfavorable for nerve regeneration.Pre-degenerated peripheral nerves could enhance the dedifferentiation of astrocytes and induce the gene expression pattern of macroglial cells that is favorable for nerve regeneration.

Objective To explore the value of 64-slice multi-detector computed tomography coronary angiography (64SCTA) in detecting the coronary artery plaque and to analyze the risk factors for unstable plaque. Methods A total of 112 inpatients who had been diagnosed as coronary artery disease by 64SCTA received catheter coronary angiography (CAG). The levels of serum endothelin-1 (ET-1), matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) were measured. The effect of 64SCTA in detecting the coronary artery plaque was evaluated as compared with CAG. The patients were divided into the soft plaque group (n=51) and non-soft plaque group (n=61) according to the CT value of correctly detected plaque. The differences in the above detection indexes between two groups and the risk factors for soft plaque forming were analyzed. Results The 64SCTA had 87.4% sensitivity and 87.1% specificity in detecting coronary artery plaque, the positive predictive value was 82.2% and the negative predictive value was 91.0%. There were significant differences between soft plaque group and non-soft plaque group in the levels of MMP-9, IL-6, hs-CRP, the number of coronary lesions and the composition ratios of gender, diagnosis and diabetes. Logistic regression analysis showed that MMP-9>5.231 ng/L (P=0.0215, OR=2.33, 95%CI 1.13-4.79), hs-CRP>3.583 mg/L (P=0.0008, OR=4.32, 95%CI 1.84-10.15) and unstable angina pectoris (P=0. 0339, OR=4.33, 95% CI 1.12-16.77) were the risk factors for soft plaque formation. Conclusions 64SCTA has highervalue in detecting the coronary artery plaque, and is one of most reliable means in non-invasive methods. MMP-9, hs-CRP and unstable angina pectoris are independent risk factors of plaque instability.

Objective To investigate the mechanism that bFGF promotes the regeneration of injured optic nerve and induces dedifferentiation of glial cells in it. Methods Fifty-five adult male SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groups as normal control group, injury group and bFGF group. At day 7 post operation, optic nerves from injury group and bFGF group were detected by gene chip and real-time PCR. At day 7, 14 post operation, optic nerves were harvested and detected by HE staining and immunohistochemistry. Results Compared with the injury group, there were 645 genes expression up-regulated and 458 genes down-regulated including genes related neural stem cell or precursor cell neural development, proliferation, apoptosis, chromatin configuration, transcription regulation, signal transduction, neural growth and so on in the bFGF group. There were bigger nuclei, more cells, more immunoreactivity of nestin, extracellular signal-regulated kinase(Erk1/2), glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP), and myelin basic protein(MBP) in the distal optic nerves and more immunoreactivity of neurofilament(NF) in the proximal optic nerves in the bFGF group than that in the injury group.Conclusion bFGF could promote the proliferation of neuroglia cells, dedifferentiation of neural glias and improve the microenvironment to favour the regeneration of injured optic nerve.

Objective:To investigate the incidence of sarcopenia in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients and analyze its influencing factors.Methods:Totally 441 non-hospitalized MHD patients in stable condition were selected,by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) to test appendicular skeletal muscle mass(ASM), by testing grip strength of MHD patients, to assess Muscle strength, by gait speed test to measure the 4-m usual walking speed, to assess physical performance of MHD patients.Risk factors of sarcopenia were identified by Logistic regression analysis.Results:The total incidence of sarcopenia in 441 MHD patients was 16.55% (73/441) and the incidence of sarcopenia in patients over 60 years old was 28.91% (61/211).The results showed older age ( OR=0.213, 95% CI 0.099-0.458, P<0.01), Karnofsky ( OR=9.661, 95% CI 3.850-24.244, P<0.01), subjective global assessment ( OR=0.491, 95% CI 0.250-0.965, P=0.039), serum phosphorus ( OR=0.422, 95% CI 0.204-0.875, P=0.020) and body mass index ( OR=0.754, 95% CI 0.609-0.935, P=0.010) were risk factors of sacopenia. Conclusions:The incidence of sarcopenia in elder, performed less physical activity, malnutrition predisposed MHD patients was high, so to those patients we should be paid more attention and gave active interventions to reduce sarcopenia.

The cytokine repertoire of ADP/ATP carrier-specific humoral immune responses and the cytokine-dependent anti-ADP/ATP carrier antibody IgG subclasses were examined in a cohort of ADP/ATP carrier-immunized BALB/c mice treated with anti-CD4 monoclonal antibody. Eighteen male BALB/c mice (6-8 weeks old) were randomized into 3 groups: dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) group, DCM-tolerance (Tol) group and control group. The mice in DCM group were immunized with the peptides derived from human ADP/ATP carrier protein for 6 months and mice in the control group were sham-immunized, while the mice in DCM-Tol group were immunized with ADP/ATP carrier protein and anti-CD4 McAb simultaneously. Serum autoantibody against ADP/ATP carrier and IgG subclasses were measured by ELISA, intracellular cytokines IFN-gamma and IL-4 of Th cells were monitored with flow cytometry, and splenic T cell cytokines IFN-gamma, IL-2, IL-4 and IL-6 were detected by using real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR. The results showed that the autoantibody against ADP/ATP carrier was found in all mice in DCM group, and the antibody level, serum IgG1 and IgG2a subclasses, cytokines in T cells and Th cells were all elevated in DCM group, as compared with those in control group (P<0.01). On the other hand, in DCM-Tol group, the autoantibody level and contents of all the cytokines were significantly different from those in DCM group (P<0.01), and were close to those in control group. And the levels of IgG1, IgG2a, IgG2b and IgG3 were influenced, to varying degrees, by anti-CD4 McAb as compared with those in DCM group. All these four types of IgG subclasses were substantially decreased in DCM-Tol group as compared with DCM group. It is concluded that the treatment with anti-CD4 McAb could prevent the activation of T cells, reverse the abnormal secretion of cytokines and the imbalance between Th1/Th2 cell subsets and abnormal production of autoantibody against ADP/ATP carrier, and eventually avoid myocardial injuries.

ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship between tumor-infiltrating mast cell (TIM) and the clinicopathological and prognostic factors of patients with colorectal cancer.MethodsA total of 282 cases of paraffin-embedded colorectal cancer specimens were obtained from the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from January 2002 to December 2005.The density of TIM was determined by immunohistochemical staining.According to the mean TIM density detected [ ( 8.4 + 6.5 )/HPF ],all the patients were divided into low-TIM density group (mean TIM density ＜8.4/HPF) and high-TIM density group (mean TIM density ＞8.4/HPF).The clinicopathological factors and the prognosis of patients between high-TIM density group and low-TIM density group were compared.All data were analyzed using the t test or chi-square test.The survival curve was drawn using the Kaplan-Meier method,and the survival of the patients was analyzed by the Log-rank test.The clinicopathological factors were analyzed retrospectively with the univariate and multivariate COX regression model.ResultsTIM was detected in all the patients with colorectal cancer.Significant differences were observed in the number of patients in N stage and TNM stage between patients in the high-TIM density group and those in the lowTIM density group (x2 =6.025,7.410,P ＜ 0.05 ).All patients were followed up till September 2010,the 5-year overall and tumor-free survival rates of patients were 82.9％ and 63.1％ in the low-TIM density group,79.0％ and 59.3％ in the high-TIM density group,with significant difference between the 2 groups (P ＜ 0.05 ).COX proportional hazard regression model revealed that high density of TIM was associated with short overall survival time and tumor-free survival time of colorectal cancer patients ( RR =2.119,95 ％ CI 1.326- 3.386; RR =2.084,95 ％ CI 1.357-3.199,P ＜0.05).The resuhs of multivariate analysis showed that high density of TIM was the independent factor influencing the overall survival time and tumor-free survival time (RR =1.651,95％ CI 1.009-2.702; RR =1.680,95％ CI 1.074-2.629,P ＜ 0.05 ).ConclusionHigh density of TIM is correlated with the N stage and TNM stage of colorectal cancer,and it is an independent predictor of poor survival for patients with colorectal cancer.
