Objective To investigate the clinical presentation, morphological features, immunohistochemical staining of the gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST), and its histogenesis as well. Methods The morphologic characteristics of GISTs were studied in 58 cases using light microscopy. The expression of c-kit(CD117), CD34 and vimentin were detected in all of the cases with EnVision staining. Results Among 58 cases of GISTs, 41 were spindle cell type, 5 epithelioid cell type and 12 mixture type, equivalent to 86.6 %(58 of 67) of all of the mesenchymal tumors of gastrointestinal tract admitted in the same period. The epithelioid cell type tumors were mainly composed of the epitheloid cells, predominantly short spindle, oval or round in pattern, with an overall eosinophilic cytoplasm by hematoxylin-eosin stain. Focal cytoplasmic vacuolization was often seen. Sometimes signet-ring like cells and cells with a clear cytoplasm were seen in the epithelioid stromal tumor. The tumor cells arranged in interlacing fascicles forming whorls or sometimes cell clusters. All of the 58 stromal tumors were strongly positive for vimentin (100 %), 55 out of 58 tumors positive for CD117 (94.8 %) and 46 out of 58 positive for CD34(79.3 %). Some cases also expressed SMA, actin, S-100 and MBP. Conclusions GISTs were the most common mesenchymal tumor seen in the gastrointestinal tract. Under light microscope, the morphology of stromal tumors sometimes looks like a leiomyoma or Schwannoma. The application of immunohistochemical markers (particularly CD117 and CD34) is considered necessary for the differential diagnosis. GISTs may originate from the pluripotential precursor cells like the interstitial cells of Cajal.

Objective To analyze the CT, especially HRCT appearance of localized organizing pneumonia. Methods The CT scans of nine patients with histologically proved localized organizing pneumonia were studied retrospectively. Results The size of the lesions in nine cases varied from 2 to 4 cm( average 2.5 cm). Eight lesions were located in the peripheral lung parenchyma near the pleural surface. The lesions were detected as round in four, anomaly in five. The margin of six lesions had inward bow indentation. Infiltrating lesions in surrounding structures were found in four cases. Conclusion The CT, especially HRCT appearance of localized organizing pneumonia shows some features that can make most of them to be differentiated from other lesions.

Objective To calculate the incidence of chromosomal abnormalities at second trimester in women who were 35 or older at their expected date of birth.Methods The amniocentesis and karyotyping results in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 1st,2001 to June 30th,2011 were retrospectively analyzed.The only indication for amniocentesis in these group of woman was advanced maternal age.A total of 6584 cases Were included in this study and were divided into two groups according to maternal age,ie.35-39 and ≥40 year old group.The incidences of fetal 47,+ 21,47,+ 18 and sex aneuploidies were calculated and compared between two groups by Chi-square test.Results Altogether,121 cases were diagnosed to be abnormal chromosome,and the overall incidence was 18.38‰ (121/6584).The abnormal karyotypes included 111 cases of aneuploidies (mosaicism included) and 10 cases of structural abnormalities.The aneuploidies included 59 cases of 47,+21 (8.96‰,59/6584),25 cases of 47,+18 (3.80‰,25/6584),2 cases of 47,+13 (0.30‰,2/6584) and 25 cases of sex aneuploidies (3.80‰,25/6584).Fetal 47,+21 was the most frequent chromosomal abnormality,accounting for 53.15% (59/111) of all aneuploidies.The incidence of fetal 47,+21 was significantly higher in ≥40 year-old group than that of 35-39 year old group[13.99‰(16/1144) vs 7.90‰(43/5440),x2=3.937,P=0.047].There were no statistical differences of the incidences of fetal 47,+ 18 and sex aneuploidies between the two groups.Conclusions The main fetal chromosomal abnormalities in women aged 35 and older are the aneuploidies of chromosome 21,18,13 and sex chromosomes.The incidence of fetal 47,+21 is significantly increased in the women aged 40 years and older.So prenatal screening should be provided first to women at 35-39 years of age and amniocentesis should be the first choice of prenatal diagnosis for women over 40 years old.

Objective To investigate the molecular mechanism of the glucocorticoid?induced osteoblasts apoptosis,and to develop the effective intervention measures. Methods The MC3T3?E1 cells were treated with different concentrations of dexamethasone for 24 hours,then the apoptosis rate was detected with TUNEL analysis,the intracellular expression of Bim and Bax were determined by Westen blot. In addition,MC3T3?E1 cells were randomly divided into Bim?siRNA group,negative control siRNA group and control group. Twenty?four hours after transfection,10-4mmol/L dexamethasone was added to each group of cells for another 24 hours administration. The apoptosis rate was analyzed using the TUNEL,the mito?chondrial transmembrane electric potential was detected by flow cytometry after JC?1 staining,the expression of Bax,Bcl?2 in mitochondrial and Cyt?C,AIF in cytosolic were determined by Western blot. Results The rate of osteoblast apoptosis and Bim expression in cells were both significantly in?creased with the dosage of dexamethasone,there was no significant difference between the groups in the expression of Bax;the rate of osteoblast apop?tosis after the expression of silence Bim was significantly lower than the negative control siRNA group and control group,the expression of Bax and Cyt?C,AIF in cytosolic were significantly reduced,and the mitochondrial transmembrane electric potential was increased. Conclusion Bim is the key molecules in hormone?induced apoptosis of osteoblasts ,the expression of silence Bim can inhibit dexamethasone induced osteoblasts apoptosis through the mitochondrial pathway.

To better understand the drugs, frequency and other factors involved in the drug-induced renal failure, 227 cases of renal failure reported in the Chinese medical and pharmaceutical journals were statistically analyzed. Our results showed that the drugs that tend to cause renal failure are antibiotics, involving 80 cases, followed by antituberculosis agents(38 eases)and dehydration agents. Gentamycin (47 cases) and rifrimactane(36 cases) were among the drugs with highest incidence. There were 58 cases of death due to drug-related renal failure.

It has been reported that celastrus orbiculatus has anti-cancer activities. The mechanism mainly lies in its functions of inhibiting tumor cell proliferation, inducing tumor cell apoptosis, repressing tumor angiogenesis, and reversing tumor multidrug resistance, etc. To study the material basis of its anti-cancer pharmacodynamics and the mechanism of tumor inhibition has significant meanings and a wide application perspective.

ObjectiveTo discuss the interaction of pregnancy and myasthenia gravis(MG) and the management of pregnancy with MG.MethodsSeven cases of pregnancy with MG in Peking Union Medical College Hospital were analyzed retrospectively,with respect to the therapy of MG,pregnancy complications and outcomes.Results Totally 38 683 pregnant women were admitted to Peking Union Medical College Hospital between Oct.1983 and Oct.2010.Among them there were 9 patients suffered from MG,with the incidence of 0.023%.Two pregnancies were terminated because of personal reasons,and seven continued.( 1 ) Onset of MG:in the 7 cases,6 were diagnosed before conception,with the mean course of 5.9 years.The other one occurred in the third trimester.(2) Management:all the cases were under close surveillance during pregnancy.Four women took thymectomy before conception,and one of them kept taking medication after surgery. In those who received thymectomy,3 cases remained stable and 1 case worsened during prenancy.The latter one took medication at 33 weeks,and continued to full term.MG exacerbated in the other three women who had not undergone thymectomy before conception.Among them, one woman complicated with systemic lupus erythematosus and lupus nephritis delivered the baby at 31 weeks.(3) Delivery and neonatal outcomes:cesarean deliveries were performed in 5 cases and the other two underwent vaginal deliveries.All the newborns were admitted to neonatal intensive care unit for surveillance.There were three smaller than gestational week (SGA) infants.No MG was observed in newborns.ConclusionsPatients with MG should have an overall evaluation before conception.The course of MG during pregnancy is unpredictable.They may get a promising outcome under the control of a multidisciplinary team including obstetricians and neurologists.Newborns should be carefully monitored for sings of transitory MG in the department of pediatrics.
