Background and purpose:Increased glucose metabolism is a characteristic of malignant tumors.This characteristic might be related to a facilitative glucose transporter(Glut-1) and the proliferating activities of tumors.This study was aimed to assess the relationship among the over-expression of facilitative glucose transporter(Glut-1) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA) as well as the fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose(18F-FDG) uptake of tumors in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma.Methods:Between March 2005 and August 2006,40 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma were imaged with 18F-FDG positron emission tomography(PET).Their maximum standard uptake values(SUVmax) were measured.The expression of Glut-1 and the proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA) in the 40 cases were studied in paraffin sections by SP immunohistochemistry.Results:The 18F-FDG uptake of tumors of the 40 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma was 9.4?1.9(SUVmax).All 40 tumors tested Glut-1 positive and PCNA positive.The Glut-1 positive cells consisted of 45.18% of the tumor cell area,whereas the PCNA positive cells consisted of 36.18% of the tumor cell area.There were correlations between Glut-1 expression levels(r=0.369,P=0.019) and the tumors' 18F-FDG uptake but no correlations were found between PCNA expression level and the tumors' 18F-FDG uptake(r=0.135,P=0.407).Conclusion:Glut-1 over-expression correlates with 18F-FDG uptake whereas PCNA over-expression does not correlate with 18F-FDG uptake in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Objective: To observe the clinical efficacy of combining auricular point sticking and a healthy diet to treat simple obesity in children aged 6-9 years old.Methods: A total of 190 eligible obese kids were divided into an observation group and a control group using the random number table method, with 95 cases in each group. The observation group was intervened by auricular point sticking plus guide on a healthy diet, while the control group was only provided with the guide on a healthy diet. The therapeutic efficacy was observed after intervention for three consecutive months, as well as the changes in body mass (BM), body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), hip circumference (HC), and subcutaneous fat thickness. Results: After the 3-month intervention, the total effective rate was 91.6% in the observation group, versus 74.7% in the control group, and the between-group difference was statistically significant (P<0.01); in both groups, the BM, BMI, WC, HC, and subcutaneous fat thickness all decreased significantly (P<0.05), and were lower in the observation group than in the control group, showing statistical significance (P<0.05). Conclusion: Auricular point sticking plus a healthy diet is safe and effective in treating simple obesity in children, producing more significant efficacy than healthy diet intervention alone.
