Objective To study the anatomical location and pathology of membranous obstruction of the inferior vena cava(IVC)in Budd-Chiari syndrome(BCS)with research on the etiologic mechanism and pathology.Methods Analysis of 100 normal adults was performed including the gross anatomy of IVC segment from the level of diaphragm up to right atrium.The conventional,microscopic pathologic examination of the biopsy sampling IVC obstruetice mambrane tissue in 70 cases toghther with the complete resected membrane from the radical therapy for 20 cases of BCS,were collected and under investigation.Results The macroscopic examination revealed the obstructive membrane in one case(1%)localizing at the diaphragmatic level,approximately 28 mm,away from the IVC entrance into the right atrium and a newly found valvula was seen on the left lateral wall of the upper part of the hepatic vein orifice.Simultaneously,47% adults showed Eustachiun valve existing in IVC near the entrance to right atrium.Microscopy confirmed all the forementioned membranes consisting of vascular valvular structures.Among them(21/70),30% showed additional organized thrombus formations,and 9%(6/70)with a few amount of inflammatory cellular infiltrations.The total intact resection membrane was continuous with the vascular wall under microscopic examination.Conclusions The first newly report of the existence of a special valvula at the diaphragmatic level of IVC reveals the possibility of high correlation with the occurance of IVC membranous obstruction type in BCS.

ObjectiveTo analyze the relationship between expressions of Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) and B7-H1 with clinico-pathological features and their prognostic significance in pancreatic cancer (PC).Method95 patients who underwent radical pancreaticoduodenectomy for PC were studied.The IDO and B7-H1 expressions in tissue specimens were determined by immunohistochemistry.ResultsIDO and B7-H1 expressions were higher in pancreatic carcinoma tissues than in normal pancreatic tissues (P＜0.05).IDO and B7-H1 expressions positively and significantly correlated with pathological grades and tumour-node-metastasis (TNM) stages (P＜0.05).They were prognostic of poor cancer-specific survival.After adjusting by the Cox proportional hazards regression models (P＜0.05),only a combined IDO/B7-H1 expression served as an independent prognostic marker.ConclusionsIDO and B7-H1 were expressed in PC,and they were important markers for malignant progression of PC.A combined IDO/B7-H1 expression served as an independent prognostic marker for PC.

Objective To explore the expressions and clinical significance of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR),COOH-terminus tensin-like molecule (CTEN)and epithelial cadherin (E-cad)in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Methods The expressions of EGFR,CTEN and E-cad in 36 cases of normal lung tissue and 82 cases of NSCLC tissues were observed with immunohistochemical SP method and their correlation with NSCLC invasion,metastasis and prognosis was analyzed.Results The positive rate of EGFR,CTEN and E-cad was 58.5% (48/82),69.5% (57/82)and 28.1% (23/82)in 82 cases of lung cancer,while 13.9% (5/36),0.0% (0/36)and 100% (36/36)in normal tissues;the differences were all significant (P<0.05).EGFR,CTEN and E-cad expressions in NSCLC tissues were significantly correlated with tumor differentiation,TNM stage and lymph node metastasis (P<0 .0 5 ).The expressions of EGFR and CTEN were correlated with each other in NSCLC (r=0 .5 3 0 , P<0.001),while the expressions of EGFR and CTEN were correlated with that of E-cad (r=0.499,P<0.001;r=0.333,P=0.001 ).Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that CTEN expression in NSCLC was an independent prognostic factor (P<0.05 ).Conclusion EGFR,CTEN and E-cad may play a role in the development,invasion and metastasis of NSCLC and have some significance in predicting the prognosis of NSCLC.

In order to investigate the species and categorization of Gasterophilus in Ili horse.We analysised the COI gene of the identified Gasterophilus dominant species and constructed NJ phylogenetic tree in the study.The results showed that infection rate was 100％ in total of 16 775 the third phase Gasterophilus instar larvae.Four Gasterophilus species were identified,and showed serious mix infections.Dominant species were Gasterophilus nasalis,its relative dominance were 53.17％,and prefer to live in the cardia,others to irregular live in the pylorus of the horses.COI gene homology of GasterophiIus nasalis,Gasterophilus intestinalis,Gasterophilus pecorum,Gasterophilus haemorrhoidalis (GenBank Accession No.:GU265752.1,KR230402.1,KU578262.1,KT946620.1) were 99％,99％,99％ and 100％ respectively.Phylogenetic analysis results showed that the data were clustered with the Gasterophilus app.which publshed on the GenBank.G.intestinalis and G.haemorrhoidalis cluster together first,and then cluster with G.nasalis,at last all three kinds of Gasterophilus cluster with G.pecorum.When the COI gene is the target,in-group and out-group of the Gasterophilus can forms an independent evolutionary branch.This study provides useful parameters for the classification of Gasterophilus.

Objective To observe the clinical effects of magnified pedicle subtraction osteotomy (mPSO) via the posterior approach combined with biomimetic bone graft fusion and internal fixation for the treatment of thoracolumbar Kummell's disease and kyphosis.Methods A total of 11 patients with thoracolumbar Kummell's disease and kyphosis deformity were treated at our department from March 2012 to June 2016.They all underwent mPSO via the posterior approach combined with biomimetic bone graft fusion and internal fixation.They were 3 men and 8 women with an average age of 61.2 years.The clinical effects were evaluated according to visual analogue scale (VAS),Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) scoring,American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) grading,cobb angle correction and rate of bone graft fusion at preoperation and 2 weeks,1,3,6 and 12 months after operation.Results All the patients were followed up for an average of 11.4 months (from 10 to 13 months).The VAS scores (2.1 ±0.5 points and 1.1 ±0.2 points),JOA scores (23.6 ±3.8 points and 25.5 ±3.2 points) and cobb angles (8.1°± 1.5° and 13.8°±2.1°) at 2 weeks after operation and final follow-ups were significantly improved from their preoperative values (8.1 ± 0.6 points,12.1 ± 3.6 points and 51.3° ± 9.8°,respectively) (P ＜ 0.05).However,there were no significant differences between 2 weeks after operation and the final follow-up in terms of the above values (P ＞ 0.05).The ASIA grading was improved from preoperative grade C to postoperative grade D in one case,and from preoperative grade D to postoperative grade E in 3 cases.At final follow-ups,bony fusion was observed at all the bone graft sites,with a fusion rate of 100％.Conclusion mPSO via the posterior approach combined with biomimetic bone graft fusion and internal fixation is a good treatment for patients with thoracolumbar Kummell's disease and kyphosis deformity.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) external therapy for sleep disorder of chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) has good anti-fatigue effect and can improve sleep quality of patients. The treatment for sleep disorders of CFS with TCM external treatment mainly adopts acupuncture, moxibustion, massage, TCM bath, transcutaneous acupoint electrical stimulation and auricular point sticking, etc., or alone, or comprehensive application, or combined with oral Chinese materia medica. The appropriate treatment method can be selected according to the patients' condition and compliance, which reflects the unique advantages of TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment and the treatment according to people and time. The existing research still needs to further form a standardized and recognized diagnosis and treatment system, so as to better guide clinical popularization and application.
