Objective To analyse the clinical features in general paresis of insane(GPI)as to offering an early diagnosis. Methods A retrospective analysis of 2 cases of GPI was focused on their clinical manifestations. Results The clinical features of GPI showed: (1) Chronic onset, progressive development in 2 cases; (2) Dementia was key symptom.Hasegawa dementia scales were 4 and 17 in 2 cases.2 cases accompanied with abnormal mentality,such as delusion of grandeur ,euphoria and so on;(3)GPI have features of pupil change,dysarthria,muscular tension,abnormal reflection; (4) Serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) syphilis antibody reaction manifested positive, CSF protein content was increased significantly, and cells increased ( with lymph cell mainly ); (5) Head MRI manifested: cerebral atrophy in 2 cases, multiple abnormal signals in cerebral parenchyma in 1 case. Conclusions GPI misdiagnosis rate is high. Important basis of diagnosis remains on clinical manifestations, laboratory and imaging examinations.

Objective To explore the adeno-associated virus (AAV)gene transduction and cellular endocytosis mediated by ultrasound combined with microbubbles in two types of cells.Methods HeLa and NIH/3T3 cells were infected by rAAV2-EGFP at a concentration gradient to get the optimal concentrations for enhancement.At these concentrations,HeLa and NIH/3T3 cells were infected by rAAV2-EGFP mediated by ultrasound combined with microbubbles.The gene transduction efficiency were observed and measured by fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry at 48 h after treatment.The cell viability was tested by CCK-8.The number and distribution of cellular clathrin-coated endocytic pits were observed by confocal fluorescence microscopy and transmission electron microscopy on 45 min after treatment.Results The optimal concentrations for HeLa and NIH/3T3 cells were 2000 v.g./cell and 10000 v.g./cell.Ultrasound combined with microbubbles significantly enhanced the transduction efficiency of rAAV2-EGFP (P <0.01) without significant cell viability decrease (P > 0.05 ).Confocal fluorescence microscopy and transmission electron microscopy demonstrated that clathrin-coated endocytic pits were more obviously increased in ultrasound combined with microbubbles mediated AAV transduction group than AAV transduction group. Conclusions Ultrasound combined with microbubbles can efficiently enhance the gene transduction of AAV,whose cellular transportation depends on cellular endocytosis,in two types of cells.Stimulating cellular endocytosis might be one of the mechanisms of enhanced cellular transportation of AAV mediated by ultrasound combined with microbubbles.

Objective To summarize the methods and experience of surgical treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysm.Methods The clinical data of 12 patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm treated in our hospital from August 2010 to December 2014 were analyzed retrospectively.All patients were diagnosed by B ultrasound,CT,MRI and DSA,and the surgical treatment plan was established.Open surgical resection and artificial vascular graft were performed in 8 cases and endovascular repairing other 4 cases.Festlts All the operations were performed successfully with no perioperative mortality.One case of type Ⅱ internal leakage and 1 case of pulmonary infection were observed.Conclusions The importance attached to perioperative treatment and strict selection of indications and treatment can increase the safety of the surgical performance of abdominal aortic aneurysm.
