Rituximab in the combination of CHOP regimen has been widely used as the standard treatment of several kinds of B cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL),but there are still about 1/3 of the late B-NHL patients become primary and secondary resistant to the drug.Recently,many translational research progress in malignant lymphoma promoted the development of promising candidate drugs for the treatment of lymphoma.The advances in translational research field were summarized in this manuscript.

Advances in clinical transformation research has facilitated discovery of a number of novel somatic mutations and aberrant intracellular signaling pathways involved in malignant proliferative B-cell lymphoma.Meanwhile,small molecular inhibitors targeting those mutation genes or signaling pathways have also been shown to be effective in treating relapsed and refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma.This paper reviewed important discoveries in clinical transformation research in lymphoma field in 2013.

Objective To investigate the changes of waist muscle density and area in the subjects with spiral CT scan examination,and through the quantitative analysis of different age and gender to get the degree of lumbar muscle degeneration.Methods 240 cases of lumbar CT scan reconstruction images (including the patients suffering from low back pain)were collected.According to the age,20 - 29 years old group,30 - 39 years old group,40 -49 years old group,50-59 years old group,60-69 years old group,and 70-79 years old group were set up.The lumbar transverse psoas muscle,lumbar side muscle,erector spinae cross-sectional areas (CSA)and mean CT values were measured at different levels.Scanning equipment:Toshiba Activion 16-slice spiral CT scanners, acquisition range from the waist 1 to S1.Results ①Compared between the measurement results of the same age groups (except 70-79 years old group),the average CSA of the male at the same level waist was higher than the female (P <0.05).②Compared between the same level groups of 20-29 years,30-39 years and 40-49 years, there were no significant differences (P >0.05).Compared between the same level groups of 50-59 years,60-69 years and 70-79 years,there was no significant difference (P >0.05).③Compared the CSA of man’s erector spinae muscle between 40-49 years group and 50-59 years group,there were significant differences (P <0.05).④Compared the same level CSA of female between 20-29 years,30-39 years,40-49 years,50-59 years,60-69 years,70-79 years groups,and the adjacent groups,there were no significant differences (P >0.05).⑤The same level average density of erector spinae muscle was lowest compared with the psoas major muscle and quadratus lumborum muscle,and falling faster,the psoas major muscle was relatively higher.The same level average density of female’s erector spinae muscle was lower than man’s,specially in 70-79 years group.Conclusion Multi-slice spiral CT can be used to diagnose the lumbar degenerative conditions.

Objective To study the value of MRI in the diagnosis of spinal metastasis.Methods MR imaging manifestations of spinal metastasis in 85 cases were retrospectively analyzed.46 cases underwent CT and/or X-ray in the 85 cases.Results Totally 388 metastatic vertebra in the 85 cases were detected by MRI.388 vertebras showed hypointensity on T1WI.354 vertebra showed mixed signal intensity and 34 vertebra showed hypointensity on T2WI.All of the vertebra showed hyperintensity on T2WI/STIR.54 vertebra showed pathologic fracture,53 vertebra were protrusion in postetrior,54 vertebra with appendages damage and paravertebral soft tissue mass presented and vertebral canal involved in 30 cases.18 cases were detected with lesion in 46 cases having X-ray and/or CT data,the positive rate was 39.11%(18/46).Conclusion MRI can detect spinal metastatic lesion early,the extent and degree of the tumors can be judged by MRI exactly.

Objective To study MR manifestations of biliary obstructive disease.Methods MR examination (Philips Gyroscan INTERA 1.0T)in 69 patients with biliary obstructive disease were performed.The conventional sequences included:T1WI/FFE,T2WI/TSE,T2WI/SPIR and contrast-enhanced at axial position,coronal B-FFE and MRCP.All images in all cases were compared with the results of operation and pathology.Results 43 cases were benign disorder,of them,42 cases were choledocholithiasis,one case was choledochal cyst.Choledocholithiasis presented as single or multiple round or ovoid with low signal.The direct sign of malignant lesions (26 cases) was the masses with slightly high signal at the obstructive part,the indirect sign of malignant lesions was obstruction or narrow of bile duct. The MR diagnostic accuracy of obstructive location was 100%, and the accuracy for evaluating the causes of obstruction was 89.9%.Conclusion MRCP combining with B-FFE and routine MRI, analysising the direct sign and indirect sign, can improve the diagnostic accuracy of obstructive jaundice.

[Objective]To evaluate curative effect of armor plate and xenogenic bony plate in congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia.[Method]Five cases of congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia were reviewed from 1998 to 2004,there were 2 men and 3 women,average age was 5.8(ranged,3~10)years.All the patients were treated by armor plate and xenogenic bony plate.[Result]All of the patients were followed up for more than 3 years(from 3 years to 7 years),four cases achieved bony union.Average time of bony union was 5 months.The lower limbs resumed walking ability and bear a heavy burden.[Conclusion]Outcome of 4 patients demonstrates that treatment of congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia with armor plate and xenogenic bony plate is a reliable treatment.

The full length cDNA of ?1,3 galactosyltransferase gene was amplified by RT PCR from the peritoneal macrophages of BALB/c mice, which was subcloned into an eukaryotic expression vector pCDNA3 1/V5 HisA, and it was confirmed by DNA sequencing. The gastric cancer cell GC9811 was transfected with pCDNA3 1/V5 HisA?1,3GT by Lipofectamine TM 2000. The positive clone was screened by G418 for two months and confirmed by RT PCR. The gastric cells expressing Gal?(1,3)Gal epitope were detected by immuohistochemisty, and they were killed by naive antidoby specific to Gal?(1,3)Gal epitope. The results showed that the pCDNA3.1/V5 HisA?1,3GT was successfully constructed, and the transfected gastric cancer cells could highly express Gal?(1,3)Gal, which promoted lysis of the cancer cells by normal human serum.

0.05). Conclusion The birth injury has little impact on the apoptosis of urethral peripheral muscle cells,while the estrogen decrease may increase the cell apoptosis.
