The authors report a case of Von hippel Lindau disease in a 20 years old patients with presenting signs: diminution of visual acuity, intracramial hypertension with a left cerebollar syndrome and existence of an retinal angioma on the right side and papilla oedema on the left side. A scanning examination revealed a cystic tumor with a solid little mass. Angiography showed a capillary nodus coressponding to the mass lesion, with feeding arteries coming from the anterio superior cerebellar artery. Removal of the cyst and the tumor was successful. Pathological examination: Hemangi oblastoma. Negative ultrasound examination of the kidney, pancreas.

It is a popular practice for Chinas academia to regard SCI(Science Citation Index)and its IF(Impact Factor)as fundamental indexes for research competency evaluatiop.This article however holds that SCI and IF are but quantitative measurements for evaluating periodicals,and whether it is scientific to evaluate research results with such indexes as they are remains to be jusfified.It also suggests that practitioners in research organizations fully comprehend the meaning of SCI and IF,and use them correctly,so as to guide researchers to contribute their works to proper publishers.

More recently, the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory Measurement Model (PedsQLTM)is wildly applicated in the research of pediatric quality of life as a pediatric population health measure. Considerable emphasis has been placed on the measurement of the quality of life of children with cerebral palsy, and many scholars carried on the investigations using the PedsQLTM abroad, while there was no related literature reported presently in China. This paper summarizes the basic structure and scoring method of PedsQLTM, and synthetically sums up the determinations of reliability, validity, and sensitivity of PedsQLTM in cerebral palsy children, and gives an overview of the effects on assessment of clinical efficacy and making a medical decision. The PedsQLTM has some superiority in measuring the quality of life in cerebral palsy children.

Lung injury is a group of lung inflammation and fibrosis diseases which is caused by a variety of reasons.There is no specific and effective treatment for it.Late irreversible damage is an important factor that cause respiratory dysfunction even the death of patients.Therefore,finding a breakthrough in the treatment of lung injury is one of the research focuses.Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)can migrate to lung and participate in reconstruction of injured lung.MSCs can be obtained and cultivated easily,and has characteristics of strong plasticity and immune tolerance.

The effective therapy of limited stage-small cell lung cancer( LS-SCLC) is combined chemotherapy and thoracic radiotherapy(TRT). Early thoracic irradiation is better than later one. Start of any treatment and end of radiotherapy less than 30 days is associated with improved survival in LS-SCLC patients. Concurrent chemoradiotherapy results in longer survival time than sequential and alternating chemoradiotherapy. There are no clear answers on optimal irradiation dose. Hyperfractinated irradiation may have therapeutic benefit compared with conventional irradiation.
