Epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinases inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) has impressive clinical efficacy in EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer. However,there are still some patients with primary resistance to TKI.And most patients who initially respond to treatment eventually develop resistance to these drugs,which the main molecular mechanisms are T790M and MET amplification.The new targeted therapies and combination drugs to overcome drug resistance is the subject of clinical research.

Objective To study the clinical effect of expert tibial nail (ETN) in the treatment of distal tibial fractures. Methods From October 2007 to June 2008,ETN was performed in 13 patients with distal tibial fractures. There were eight males and five females, at age range of 25-47 years (33.8 on average). According to AO/ASIF classification, there were three patients with 43-A1 fractures, four with 43-B1 fractures, four with 43-B2 fractures and two with 43-C1 fractures. All the patients were with close fractures except for three patients with Gustilo-Anderson type Ⅰ fractures. Their clinical data were analyzed for assessing the clinical effect of ETN. Results All patients were followed up for a mean time of 8.4 months (range 3-13 months), which showed that all the fractures obtained stable fixation and sound healing, with no complications like breakage of ETN, wound infection, fracture nonunion or limb shortening. According to Johner-Wruhs standard, the functional results were excellent in 10 patients and good in three. Conclusion ETN has advantages of minimal invasion, shorter operation time, stronger fixation,better soft tissue protection and better functional recovery for distal tibial fractures in comparison with traditional open reduction and buttress plate fixation.

56 school-aged children with epilepsy and 37 normal ones of the same gender,age and educational level were selected. All the subjects' parents completed the child adaptive behavior scale, the mutiple stepwise linear re-gression was used to explore the impact of epilepsy related factors on social adaptive function. The social adaptive function of school-aged children with epilepsy faulty is affected by seizure frequence,gender,age,epilepsy control, clinical course,and the number of antiepileptic drugs.

Objective To explore the effects of ephedrine on the hippocampal cell apoptosis and behavioral performance after hypoxia-ischemia brain injury in neonatal rats.Methods Totally 90 7-day rats were randomly divided into 3 groups,ephedrine treatment group,model group,and sham group.Hypoxia-ischemia brain injury model was established by permanently ligating right common carotid artery.Ephedrine (1.5 mg/kg,once per day) was injected intraperitoneally to the rats of ephedrine treatment group for 7 d,and the rats of model group was given normal saline at the same volume.At the following time interval of 6 and 12 h,and 1,3,and 7 d after hypoxia,the expression of bcl-2 and bax were detected in the hippocampal region by immunohistochemical staining.At 4 weeks after surgery,behavioral changes in the remaining rats were tested by Morris water maze.Results Compared with model group,the expression of bcl-2 in the ephedrine treatment group was significantly increased after hypoxic-ischemic injury,peaked at 1 d and decreased in 3 d after operation.And the expression of bax in the ephedrine treatment group was decreased in 1 d after hypoxic-ischemia.The average time of escape latency was gradually decreased in each group.However,from the 3rd to 5th day,it was much shorter in ephedrine treatment group than in model group.In addition,the frequency platform passing in the ephedrine treatment group and the percentage of swimming distance traveled in the previous target quadrant was significantly greater than those of the control group.Conclusion Ephedrine upregulates bcl-2 and downregulates bax in the hippocampus of neonatal rats after hypoxia-ischemia,and improves their ability of learning and memory.

The method of multiplex PCR was set up to identify two or three transgenes in one reaction such as uidA and bar; uidA and IDx5 or uidA, bar and 1Dx5 genes. Three sets of primer pairs which was specific to each of these three genes respectively were designed and synthesized. Recombinant plasmids pAHC25 and p1Dx5 harboring uidA + bar and 1Dx5 gene separately were used as template DNA in the process of optimizing an multiplex PCR reaction. The optimal annealing temperature for uidA and bar MPCR is range from 57. 1℃-62. 3℃ , for uidA and 1Dx5 is range from 60℃ to 60. 6℃ , and for uidA、bar and 1Dx5 range from 57. 0℃-58. 4℃. The amount of template for MPCR is twice as much as that for simplex PCR, while the concentration of primers is the same with simplex one. Less than 50bp MPCR products can be separated clearly by 10% non-denaturalized polyacrylamid gel electrophoresis. Fourteen transgenic wheat lines were tested by multiplex and simplex PCR respectively, which shows the same results and hence presents that MPCR is the reliable, rapid and high-effective approach to detect foreign genes from transgenic plant.

Objective To evaluate the nursing effect of wenjing moxibustion with ginger in zhuang medicine to knee osteoarthritis (KOA), which can provide an effective nursing intervention for KOA. Methods Totally 80 cases were divided into two groups by random number table. There were 40 cases in zhuang moxibution group and 40 in traditional moxibution group. These two groups were taken the same nursing intervention and exercise. However zhuang group were spend 20 minutes and covered by ginger mud on zhuang xiguan point, and fire moxa on the ginger mud. Xuehai, Liangqiu, Neixiyan, and Waixiyan were chosen and fired moxa cone with ginger in traditional group that spent 20 minutes. It was observed the knee pain and swelling before and after 1 week during the treatment. 2 groups were compared with the cost of treatment. Results There was no different in pain and swilling before treatment (P>0.05), but there was significantly difference after 1 week in two groups (t=14.72、12.90;7.04, 2.73, P﹤0.01). It was significantly different in two groups after 1 week treatment (t=-5.06,-3.64, P﹤0.01). There was no significantly difference in the cost of treatment (F=0.041 6, P>0.05). Conclusions these two nursing intervention can release pain and swelling. However it is effective and no different in the cost of treatment when using wenjing moxibustion with ginger in zhuang medicine.

Objective To observe the CT features of ovary Brenner tumor. Methods CT manifestations of 5 patients with ovary Brenner tumor confirmed with pathology and clinical follow-up were retrospectively analyzed, and the masses were described for location, size, configuration, enhancement pattern, presence of calcification and metastatic spread. Results There were 7 tumors in 5 patients, 3 patients had unilateral tumors and 2 had bilateral Brenner tumors (left side 3 and right side 4), with tumor size ranging from 1.52 to 16.25 cm (mean 7.36 cm). Five masses in 4 patients were benign, 2 (bilateral tumors in 1 patient) were malignant. All tumors had well-defined margin. One patient with bilateral benign tumors had large pleural effusion and seroperitoneum. Five tumors in 4 patients (5/7, 71.43%) were solid and had calcification, 2 tumors in 1 patients (2/7, 28.57%) were mainly cystic, with septa in the tumors. The solid part of all tumors were inhomogeneous and had mild enhancement. Conclusion CT findings of ovary Brenner tumor have some characteristics. Combining with clinical manifestations, CT is helpful for the diagnosis of ovary Brenner tumor.
