Purpose: To evaluate the influence of lung corrections on the target volume dose in radiation treatment of esophageal carcinoma by TPS HEVAPLAN. Materials and Methods: Three radiation field technique to middle esophagus were used as the model of this investigation .target volume doses were calculated with photons in different energies to compare with the divergence when the lung density were set to 1.0(without lung correction) 0.33 and 0.2 (with lung correction).Results: If no lung correction was performed, the actual radiation dose in target volume were 24%～28%, 18%～21%, 13%～15% and 7%～9% which were radiated with 60 Co, X-ray of 5MV, 8MV and 19MV. Conclusion: The lung density must be corrected in treating 60 Co unit.

Objective To evaluate the role of Gla-bound protein and its Gla residue in urinary lithogenesis. Methods Calcium oxalate crystal matrix was produced by calcium oxalate supersaturation crystallization in fresh urine of normal subjects and calcium oxalate stone formers. Protein-bound Gla was determined in the crystal matrix and urine of normal subjects and in the calcium oxalate stone formers by high performance liquid chromatography. Results Protein-bound Gla in the crystal matrix and urine of calcium oxalate stone formers were significantly less than that of normal subjects. Conclusions Highly carboxylated Gla-bound proteins are inhibitory factors of calcium oxalate calculus. Insufficient carboxylation of urinary Gla-bound proteins may be correlated with urinary lithogenesis.

Objective To establish a colony of genetic idiopathic hypercalciuric rats model which can stablely descend and initially explore the mechanism of idiopathic hypercalciuric development. Methods The male and female rats with the highest 24-h urine Ca excretion and normal serum calcium,phosphorus and 1,25(OH)2D3 were chosen for inbreeding to propagate the colony until the stable hypercalcinuria was achieved in filial generation. Immunohistochemical determination (SP method) was undertaken to determine the VDR expression in model rats duodenum. Results The content of two 24 h urine Ca excretion in 93% male and 92% female generation 7 model rats was double standard deviation more than that in the normal group(2.56?0.86 mg/d vs. 1.12?0.18 mg/d,2.86?1.16 mg/d vs. 1.15?0.12 mg/d respectively)(F=27.10,P*0.05). VDR expression was remarkably increased in model rats duodenum(F=14.23,P

Objective To explore the relationship between the post-thoracotomic wound infection and nutritional status.Methods The patients treated with thoracotomy were divided into the simple wound infection group(n=15) as the experimental group and the phase Ⅰ healed group (n=15) as the control group.On the fifth day after operation, the sero-albumin quantity and cumulative nitrogen balance were recorded respectively. The statistical data were given the test.Results Every average index of sero-albumin in the experimental group was lower than the control group. Among them, the total protein comparison had statistical significance (P0 05) and transferrin comparison had statistical difference (P

Objective To evaluate the radiation method and resuh of 450 patients received TBI(total body irradiation).Methods Single-dose Measurement was used to mark dose of TLD(thermo luminescence dosimeter).The values of actual dose in body midline were evaluated by calculating and correcting mean dose of incidence and emergence.Radiation methods:In four-field Irradiation.diagonals of fields coinside with the longitudinal axis of the patients,patient in supine and lateral positions received two pairs of parallel opposite radiation.Scheme of TBI came from a preparative radiation about one week before,and this four-field and equal-in-dose(about 10%of TBI)preparative radiation offered US the optimal scheme with aminimal dose non-uniformity by adjusting different dose proportion of supine and lateral position.In small field irradiation,patients received one pair of parallel opposite radiation from lateral side sitting on a special stool with backrest,the stool can be rotated CW or CCW,pedals can be move forward or backward and fixed.In opposite lateral irradiation,similar to four-field irradiation,patients received one pair of horizontal opposite radiation only in supine position.Five of these patients received FTBI(Fractional TBI). Results The average non-uniformity in midline of patients in four-field irradiation group(87 patients).small field irradiation group(91patients)and opposite lateral irradiation group(272 patients)is respectively ±8.1%,±7.4% and ±4.9%. Conclusions It iS a important process for QA and Qc to measure the dose of incidence and emergence real-timely with TLD or semiconductor dosimeter.We can adopt small field irradiation when the field iS not large enough to contain the patient from head to foot,and it showed advantages over four-field irradiation in treatment process and outcomes.We found the uniformity in body midline would be much better in supine position with diagonal＞180 cm than that in four-field irradiation and small field irradiation with diagonal＜110 cm.We compared supine position irradiation with opposite lateral irradiation,only to find which has its strong point.And actually we considered that FTBI treatment booth can be used more often in anterior and posterior parallel fields irradiation,patient semi-sitted,repeatedly received forward and backward radiation. In spit of not possessing radio-biological advantages as FTBI,STBI(Single TBI)is still a practical form of TBI.

Urinary prothrombin fragment 1 (UPTF1) is a potent inhibitor of urinary stone formation. UPTF1 exerts such inhibitory effect by effective γ-carboxylation in which vitamin K epoxide reductase complex subunit 1 (VKORC1), the rate-limiting enzyme, is involved. This study examined the correlation between VKORC1 expression and calcium oxalate urolithiasis. The renal cortex samples were obtained from patients undergoing nephrectomy and then divided into 3 groups: urolithiasis group, control group A [hydronephrosis-without-stone (HWS) group], control group B (normal control group). The localization and expression of VKORC1 in renal tissues were determined by using immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence microscopy, Western blotting and SYBR Green I real-time reverse-transcription PCR. The rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) were conducted to obtain the 3'- and 5'-untranslated region (UTR) of VKORC1. The results showed that VKORC1 was located in the cytoplasm of renal tubular epithelial cells. The expression of VKORC1 in the urolithiasis group was significantly lower than that in the other two control groups (P<0.05). Moreover, the 3'- and 5'-UTR sequence of the VKORC1 gene was successfully cloned. No insertion or deletion was found in the 3'- and 5'-UTR. However, a 171-bp new base sequence was discovered in the upstream of 5'-UTR end in the urolithiasis group. It was concluded that the decreased expression of VKORC1 may contribute to the development of calcium oxalate urolithiasis in the kidney.

Objective To analyze the prognostic factors of patients with leukemia treated with single fraction total body irradiation (SFTBI) followed by hernatopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).Methods From January 2001 to September 2008, 102 patients received HSCT. The differences of the survival rate, relapse rate and incidence of interstitial pneumonia (IP) between groups regarding different genders, ages, pathological types, transplantation methods and TBI parameters were compared and the factors related with the survival rate, relapse rate and incidence of IP were analyzed. Results The followup time ranged from 15 to 1482 days (median, 406 days). The follow-up rate was 95.1%. 86 and 55patients were followed up more than one year and three years. The 1-and 3-year survival rates were 59.0%and 44.0%. In univariate analysis, the 3-year survival rate was signifcantly different between the groups with and without relapse before transplantation (20% vs. 55%, χ2 = 6.33, P = 0. 012), allogeneictranplantation versus autologous tranplantation (39% vs. 68%, χ2 = 8.06, P = 0.005), grade 3 or more acute graft versus host disease (aGVHD) and grade 0 -2 aGVHD (0% vs. 54%, χ2 = 7.52, P = 0.006),with and without relapse after transplantation (19% vs. 58%, χ2 = 10.13, P =0.001), with and without IP (23% vs. 58%, χ2 =8.35, P=0.004). Multivariate analysis showed that grade 3 or more aGVHD was the only statistically significant prognostic factors (χ2 = 12. 74 ,P =0. 000). The l-and 3-year relapse rateswere 30. 0% and 50. 0%. The incidence of relapse was obviously higher in the group with relapse before transplantation than that without (47% vs. 16%, χ2 =7. 32, P=0. 007). Multivariate analysis showed thatrelapse before transplantation was a significant factor predicting relapse after transplantation (χ2 = 9. 39,P =0. 020). The cumulative incidence of IP was 35.0%. The incidence of IP was different between groups with dose homogeneity > 3% and ≤ 3% (27% vs. 4%, χ2 = 5. 21, P = 0. 023), with and without acute parotitis (34% vs. 3%, χ2 = 14. 15, P= 0.000), allogeneic transplantation group and autologous transplantation group (31% vs. 8%, χ2= 7.70, P= 0.006). Multivariate analysis showed that transplantation methods, acute parotitis and dose homogeneity were statistically significant factors in predictingIP (χ2 = 10. 08 , 10. 08 and 7.69 , P = 0. 002 , 0. 002 and 0. 010 , respectively) . Conclusions Patients who develop grade 3 or higher aGVHD have poor prognosis. Dose homogeneity influences the incidence of IP. Patients undergoing allogeneic transplantation are apt to have IP. Acute parotitis is related with IP and might be a predictor.

Objective To evaluate the medium-term outcomes of minimally invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy in patients with renal function impairment.Methods Data of 811 patients who underwent minimally invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy between Jan.2009 and Dec.2011 were retrospectively collected.Seventy-eight patients had a preoperative estimated GFR of 30-59 ml/(min · 1.73m2).The minimum follow-up was 1 year.Patients were divided into group 1 (improved or stable disease) and group 2 (worsened disease).Patient age was (42.8 ± 16.3) and (45.3 ± 14.2) separately,with male patients 41 and 7,female patients 25 and 5 respectively.Body mass index were (24.3 ± 4.1) kg/m2 and (25.4 ±5.2) kg/m2,history of open surgery or ESWL were 19 and 4.Mild hydronephrosis were 22 and 4.Staghorn stone were 22 and 5.Multiple access were 13 and 2.Operative time was (78.2 ± 30.4) min and (80.3 ±32.3) min.Stone-free rate 1 month postoperatively were recorded.Multiple regression analysis was used.Results The stone free rate at 1 month postoperatively was 85％ by CT scan.Preoperative eGFR was (38.4±12.8) ml/(min · 1.73m2),and 1 ycar postoperative eGFR was (45.1 ±15.8) ml/(min · 1.73m2)in 78 patients.Renal function had improved in 31％ of patients,but it remained the same or deteriorated in 54％ and 15％,respectively at 1 year follow-up.On multivariate regression analysis,diabetes was associated with the deterioration of renal function.Conclusions At medium-term follow-up,renal function was maintained or improved in 85％ of patients with chronic kidney disease who underwent minimally invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy.Minimally invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy could be an effective and safe option for the patients with chronic renal function impairment.Diabetes mellitus was independent predictive factor of renal function impairment.Therefore,patients with diabetes should be followed up carefully.Medical management is needed if necessassry.
