Journal of Medical Postgraduates 2003;0(06):-
Wnt proteins,its receptors and regulators compose complex signaling pathways which are closely related to embryonic development,cell proliferation and differentiation,as well as tumour generation.In recent years,the involvement of Wnt signaling pathways in hepatocarcinogenesis has drawn the attention of international medical circles and been studied intensively.In this review,we summaries the interaction between Wnt signaling pathways and its regulators,the relationship between Wnt signaling pathways and cancerogenesis,angiogenesis,invasion and metabasis in hepatocellular carcinoma.

·AIM: To report two patients with Helveston syndrome who received surgical treatment.·METHODS: During last year in department of oph-thalmology in West China Hospital, the surgery was designed to correct A-exotropia by lateral rectus' weaken and vertical offsets, and dissociated vertical deviation (DVD) by superior rectus muscles recession simultaneously.·RESULTS: A-exotropia and DVD of the patients vanished six months after the surgery. Both patients were clinically cured.·CONCLUSION: As the degree of horizontal and vertical strabismus was in the allowed range, complete examination and full assessment of the function of the four muscles were performed before operation, single operation can be considered in the treatment of Helveston syndrome.

Objective To evaluate the clinical significance of 18F-FDG PET/CT in localization and etiologic diagnosis of suspected pacemaker-related infection(SPRI).Methods Fifteen SPRI patients (10males,5 females,age range:45-86 years) were included in this retrospectively study.18F-FDG uptake in device-related region and abnormal 18F-FDG uptake out of the device region were visually interpreted.Final diagnosis was decided according to modified Duke's criteria and imaging interpretation.Diagnostic efficiency of 18 F-FDG PET/CT on SPRI was evaluated.Results Of 7 patients with suspected pocket infection,5 patients had hot spot of 18F-FDG in the pocket site,either in superficial skin and/or deep soft tissue.Of 9 patients with suspected infective endocarditis,a diffuse FDG uptake was demonstrated in 3 patients in the area of left atrium,right atrium,and right ventricle;another 3 patients had abnormal FDG uptake in other sites rather than in the implantation regions,and the rest 3 showed negative PET/CT results.In patients with SPRI,18F-FDG PET/CT diagnosed 7 cases of pocket infection,8 cases of infective endocarditis,14 cases of pacemaker-related infection.Conclusions 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging is useful in localization and etiologic diagnosis in SPRI patients.It might guide the clinical SPRI management.

Background Orthokeratology has been proved to temporarily alter the equivalent sphere,but its effects on visual quality deserve attention.Objective The present study was to investigate the visual quality after overnight orthokeratology in pre-adolescent myopes.Methods Written informed consent was obtained form each subject prior to entering into this series.A descriptive study design was used.One hundred and fifty eyes of 76 teenagers aged (14.90± 1.24)years with low and moderate myopia (-2.79 ± 0.82)D were included in the study.Fitted with Ortho-K contact lens,the lens was wore every night for over 8 hours.Subjective refraction,uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA),contrast sensitivity function,corneal-topography,and aberrometry were examined before,1 week and 3 months after the initiation of orthokeratology.Visual quality was generally evaluated by comparing before wearing,1 week and 3 months after wearing using the National Eye Institute refractive error quality of life instrument (NEI-RQL-42TM).All the procedures were performed by the same clinician.Results Spherical equivalent refractions were (-0.33± 1.02) D and (-0.26 ± 0.60) D 1 week and 3 months after orthokeratology,showing significant decline in comparison with (-2.79±0.82) D of before orthokeratology (P =0.001,0.001).However,no considerable difference was seen between 1 week and 3 months after orthokeratology (P=0.161).Contrast sensitivity function was significantly different in all spatial frequencies before wearing,1 week and 3 months after wearing,and those of 1 week and 3 months after wearing were significantly lower than those of before wearing (1 week:3 cpd P =0.001,6 cpd P=0.001,12 cpd P<0.05,18 epd P<0.05 ;3 months:3 cpd P=0.001,6 cpd P=0.001,12 cpd P<0.05,18 cpd P<0.05).There was no significant change in contrast sensitivity function between 1 week and 3 months of orthokeratology (P>0.05).Flat K,steep K and corneal eccentricity (e) were significantly reduced (P =0.000),and surface asymmetry index (SAI) and surface regularity index (SRI) were significantly improved after orthokeratology in comparison with before orthokeratology (both P =0.001).Root mean square (RMS) of total higher-order,third-order and fourth-order aberrations were significantly increased (P<0.05),but RMS of whole aberration and second-order aberrations significantly decreased after orthokeratology (P< 0.05).There were no significant changes in the fifth-order,sixth-order and seventh-order aberration among pre-wear,1 week and 3 months after orthokeratology.Scales of dark to bright,nocturnal driving,glare,visual fluctuate and halo were lower than those before orthokeratology (P<0.05).The scales of visual fluctuate between 1 month and 3 months after orthokeratology had significant differences (P<0.01),while the rest of the scales had no significant differences (P>0.05).Conclusions Orthokeratology can reduce myopic diopter 1 week after orthokeratology.The overnight wearing of fitted orthokeratology can decrease contrast sensitivity and increase corneal surface irregularity and RMS of third-order and fourth-order.Compared with spectacles,orthokeratology reduces subjective visual quality,especially nocturnal quality.

Objective: To investigate the value of double source CT(DSCT)in the diagnosis of myocardial bridge(MB)and analyze the correlation of MB-associated coronary atherosclerotic plaque with age.Methods: A total of 417 patients suspected of coronary artery disease(CAD)were divided into a young group(n=137,30-44 yrs),a middle-aged group(n=197,45-59 yrs) and an old group(n=83,60-84 yrs),subjected to DSCT coronary angiography,and analyzed for the differences in the incidence of MB and coronary atherosclerosis.Results: Altogether 76 cases(18.2%) were diagnosed as MB,10(13.2%) in the young,36(47.4%) in the middle-aged and 30(39.5%) in the old group.Of the MB patients,41(53.9%) were complicated with coronary atherosclerotic plaque,2(20.0%) in the young,17(47.2%) in the middle-aged 22(73.3%) in the old group.There were significant statistical differences in the incidence and the nature of coronary atherosclerotic plaque among the 3 groups(P

Objective To explore the acute toxic reactions of memantine in neonatal rats. Methods Based on Completely Lethal dose(LD_(100)) and median lethal dose (LD_(50))of memantine in SD neonatal rats acquired in a preliminary test of death dose, 60 neonatal rats were randomly divided into normal group which were given water injection intraperitoneally and 5 study groups which were given different doses of memantine intraperitoneally.LD_(50) was calculated with Bliss method and the toxic reactions of memantine were observed in all neonatal rats of 6 groups after administration of memantine. Results LD_(50) of memantine in SD neonatal rats was((74.386?2.811)) mg/kg with 95% confidence at the range of 59.334-93.257 mg/kg.Side effects occurred at 1-4 minutes after administration. Excitatory jitteriness,ataxia,decreased respiratory rate and passivity were usually observed in groups with a lower dosage (52.0 mg/kg,61.2 mg/kg,72.0 mg/kg);some of them also manifested side lying, cyanosis and respiratory failure.While neonatal rats with a higher dosage (85 mg/kg,100 mg/kg)mainly manifested visible symptoms of inhibition, respiratory failure,side (lying) and cyanosis.However,no jitteriness and ataxia were observed in them.The neonatal rats usually died around 1 hour after memantine administration;survival rats usually returned to normal 4-5 hours after administration.Conclusion There is a positive correlation between toxic reactions and the mortality with memantine dosage in neonatal rats.
