Objective To investigate the risk factors of symptomatic cerebral vasospasm (SCVS) after craniocerebral trauma. Method The clinical data of 308 patients with craniocerehral trauma were analyzed by single factor analysis and Logistic regression analysis. Resnlts SCVS occurred in 94 patients (30.52%). The risk factors were subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), Glasgow coma scale, blood glucose, emergency operation,smoking and age. Conclusions Various factors are related to the development of SCVS after craniocerebral trauma. Prophylactic treatments should be given in early stage for the patients with risk factors.

Background and purpose: FGFR2 is a receptor tyrosine kinase and c-Cbl is a new RING finger type of ubiquitin ligase in the ubiquitin-proteasomes path. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the expression and significance of FGFR2 and c-Cbl in gastric carcinoma. Methods: The expression of FGFR2 and c-Cbl were detected by immunohistochemical method of SP. Results: The positive expression rates of FGFR2 and c-Cbl were 77.4%,71.0% in gastric carcinoma, respectively, both were higher than those normal tissue (P<0.05);The expression of FGFR2 and c-Cbl were positively correlated with depth of invasion and TNM staging, and there was a positive relationship between the expressions of FGFR2 and c-Cbl. Conclusion. The expressions of FGFR2 and c-Cbi were associated with some clinicopathologic features in gastric carcinoma, indicating that their expression may be the prognostic factors for gastric carcinoma.

Objective To evaluate anti-HEV IgG and IgM diagnostic kits with sera from convalescent hepatitis E patients and to establish the quantification method of detecting anti-HEV lgG.Methods Detect 42 convalescent serum samples of over 6 months after onset of hepatitis E patients from Jiangsu province with anti-HEV IgM and IgG diagnostic kits. Select and mix the anti-HEV IgG positive sera which were confirmed by Western blot with ORF2 and ORF3 antigen. The mixed serum was calibrated with a WHO anti-HEV Ig standard. A series quantitative linear standard was made for quantitative detection of anti-HEV IgG in hepatitis E vaccine clinical trials phase Ⅲ. Results The positive rates of the anti-HEV IgG di-agnose kits of G, K, MP, Wantai were 71.4%, 78.6%, 92.9% and 100% respectively. The positive rates of G was lower than that of MP (χ~2 = 5.19, P<0.05) and obviously lower than Wantai (χ~2 = 11.76,P<0.01). The positive rates of K was also obviously lower than that of Wantai (χ~2 =7.96, P <0.01).The positive rates of the anti-HEV IgM diagnose kits of MP, G, X, Wantai, K were 21.4%, 7.1%,21.4%, 64.3%, 78.6% respectively. The positive rate of both K and Wantai were obviously higher than that of MP(χ~2 = 15.75 ,P<0.01 ; X2 = 27.43 ,P< 0.01). With the Western blot confirmation test, 30 and 18 sera were reactive to ORF2 and ORF3 antigen separately. The anti-HEV IgG concentration of HEV-D01 mixed by 13 samples was 57.94 U/ml by the calibration. Prepare seven 1.5-fold dilution series of quantita-tive linear standard for HEV vaccine clinical trials phase Ⅲ, concentration range from 0.077 to 0.877 U/ml. The quantitive values of high, medium and low concentrations quality control samples lay in the range of average ± 2s, and the CV of quantitative values were 16%, 16%, 12% respectively. Conclusion The quality of different anti-HEY IgM and IgG diagnose kits were different. This study had set up a set of anti-HEV IgG linear quantitative standard, which fit for detecting anti-HEV IgG antibodies quantitatively in HEVvaccine clinical trial phase Ⅲ.

Objective To investigate the clinical and pathological features of rectal carcinoid and factors influencing the prognosis. Methods Clinical data of 29 cases with postoperative pathology identified diagnosis of rectal carcinoid from May 1998 to May 2008 in the two hospitals were retrospectively reviewed. Endoscopic submucosal resection of the tumor was conducted in 5 cases,local resection in 14 cases, local expanded resection of the tumor in 4 cases, transsacral local wide resection in 2 cases, radical operation in 4 cases. Results Median age at treatment was 32~71 (54±11) years. Median follow-up was (61±4) months (3 months-10 years), follow-up rate was 76%. During a follow-up, there were no cases with recurrence among the 13 patients with tumor size<1 cm, 1 case recurred in the 5 patients with turmor size between 1 to 2 cm, and 3 cases died from postoperative liver metastasis among the 4 patients with tumor size > 2 cm. The 5-, 10-year disease-specific survival rates were 87% and 80% respectively. Conclusions Surgery is the best therapy for rectal carcinoid, the choice of operative mode must be made according to the size,infiltration of the tumor, the condition of infiltrated lymph node and hepatic metastasis.
