Objective To evaluate the clinical significance and value of MRI for the diagnosis of the meniscus and ligament injury of the knee joint. Methods 27 patients were put under MRI examinations with 1.5 T unit(Magnetom Vision plus, SIEMENS)and confirmed by surgery or arthroscopy. In all patients, the sagittal and coronal multiplane scan was performed with 4mm section thickness. The posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) angle and PCL curvature index were measured in 8 patients with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears and in 22 patients with ACL normal. The results of measuring were statistically analyzed. Results The accurate diagnosis of MRI was 18 of 24 patients (62.07%) and 24 of 31 cases with meniscus injury (77.42%). On MRI, the signs of meniscus injury were as follows: firstly, the linear high signal intensity inside meniscus was abnormal. Secondly, the size of meniscus diminished and the inner edge was pointless. The third, the triangle configuration of meniscus disappeared.The fourth, the lower or superior margin of meniscus appeared as wavelike configuration. The fifth,the distance from outer side of meniscus to articular capsule increased. Only 5 in 9 patients with ACL tears were exactly diagnosed and the accuracy ratio was 55.56%. There were remarkable statistical differences between the ACL tears group and ACL normal group in the results of (PCL) angle and PCL curvature index(P

Background Recent studies have demonstrated that glaucoma progression had great relationship with corneal biomechanical properties.However,there are not enough studies about corneal biomechanical properties in different types of glaucoma.Objective This study was to evaluate the corneal biomechanical properties in chronic primary angle-closure glaucoma (CPACG) and primary open angle glaucoma (POAG).Methods Prospective observational study was adopted.Sixty-eight cases (68 eyes) with CPACG and 69 POAG patients (69 eyes) from Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center were investigated by a novel technique named Corvis-ST which can measure corneal deformation.The Cronbach's αt coefficient and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) were used to evaluate the repeatability of the parameters from Corvis-ST.The differences of corneal biomechanical properties between POAG and CPACG were evaluated by independent-samples t test.Multiple regression analysis was used to assess the association between parameters of deformation response and clinical factors.This study protocol was approved by Ethic Committee of Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center and complied with Helsinki Declaration.Written informed consent was obtained from each patient prior to any medical examination.Results There were no statistic differences about age,sex and intraocular pressure (IOP) between CPACG and POAG patients (all at P＞0.05).However,differences existed in the number of anti-glaucoma medications (t =-2.388,P =0.020).Measurements of central corneal thickness (CCT),deformation amplitude (DA),and peak distance (PD) demonstrated excellent repeatability (ICC≥ 0.8).There were no statistic differences about CCT,first applanation time/length/velocity (A1 T,A1 L,A1V),second applanation time/length/velocity (A2T,A2L,A2V),DA between CPACG and POAG patients (all at P＞ 0.05).The highest concavity time was shorter (t =2.920,P =0.005),PD was bigger (t =-2.453,P =0.017),and central curvature radius (CCR) was smaller (t =1.997,P =0.050) in POAG than those in the CPACG patients.DA,A1V,A2T and PD were negatively associated with IOP (r =-0.709,-0.531,-0.645,-0.554;all at P＜0.001).However,A1T and A2V were positively associated with IOP (r=0.744,0.546;both at P＜0.001).And CCR was positively associated with CCT (r =0.181,P =0.039).Conclusions It is useable to evaluate corneal biomechanical properties of glaucoma by Corvis ST.Under the same level of IOP,the corneal concavity of POAG is easier than that of CPACG,which indicates that cornea in POAG patients is more deformable.

Background and purpose:Life expectancy has continuously improved in recently years with the development of medical level. In 2012, the amount of people who were above 60 years old has reached 810 million and account for 11% of worldwide population. The worldwide population shift towards older ages will inevitably lead to more elderly patients being diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It still remains controversial whether sublobar resection is effective in such cases. In order to solve this question, we need to understand the clinical characteristics of these tumors. Methods:From 2006 to 2012, a total of 310 patients with NSCLC who were above 65 years old underwent surgical resection in Department of Thoracic Surgery, the First Afifliated Hospital of China Medical University and the Second Department of Thoracic Surgical Oncology, Jilin Province Tumor Hospital. The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed in sex, stage, histology, smoking status, smoking amount, drinking status, surgical approaches, multimodality therapy and overall survival. Survival was analyzed by Kaplan–Meier method and log-rank test. Results:There were 256 (82.6%) elderly patients who underwent standard lobectomies and 54 (17.4%) patients who underwent sublobar resections. The overall 5-year survival rate was 52.9%. Patients with different surgical approaches (lobectomy and sublobar resection) had nearly the same 5-year survival rates (60.5%vs 60.8%, P=0.381). The prognosis were signiifcantly inlfuenced by gender (P=0.024), stage of disease (P=0.028), smoking status (P=0.034) and smoking amount (P=0.028). The multivariate Cox proportional hazards analysis revealed that the smoking status was associated with the hazard ratio of 1.660 (1.058-2.606;P=0.028). Conclusion:In elderly NSCLC patients, sublobar resection is considered to be an appropriate treatment in comparison with lobectomy, as this procedure provides an equivalent long-term survival. The survival of elderly patients with lung cancer is closely related to the smoking status.

Objective To establish a flow cytometric method for the detection of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) expression on the membrane of neutrophils (mNAP).Methods EDTA-K2 anticoagulant venous bloods were collected.Expression of mNAP in peripheral blood was measured by flow cytometry using a phycoerythrin (PE)-labeled anti-ALP monoclonal antibody.BD QuantiBRITE PE was used to generate a calibration curve for PE fluorescence and ratios of PE to anti-ALP antibody and detect the bound ALP antibodies per cell (antibodies bound per cell,AB/c).Preanalytical handling including anticoagulants (EDTA-K2,citrate,and heparin),storage temperature,storage time,and plasma ALP were optimized and measured the precision.The expression levels of mNAP from 481 healthy controls were measured to establish a clinical reference range.The mNAP levels of 84 patients with severe infection and local infection,39 patients with virus infection were determined by this method.Results For preanalytical handling,application of PBS washing can effectively eliminate the interference of plasma ALP.The mNAP levels were not influenced by different anticoagulants and storage conditions (stored for 12 h either at room temperature or 4 ℃).This method had preferable reproducibility (CV in batch were 2.01％-3.33％,average 2.67％ ; CV between batch were 5.80％-6.00％,average 5.90％).The median (quartiles) of mNAP in health controls were 1 758 (1 378-2 310) AB / c for men and 1 897 (1 369-3 249) AB / c for women.There was no significant difference between genders (U =27 140,P =0.243 8).The clinical reference ranges (2.5 percentile to 97.5 percentile) of mALP was 920.5-3 493.0AB / c.The expression levels of mNAP of patients with bacterial infections (13 532,9 756-16 869 AB / c) were significantly higher than those of patients with virus infection(1 143,536-2 012 AB / c) and healthy controls (1879,1399-2497 AB / c) (H=221.5,P＜0.01).Conclusion BD QuantiBRITE PE kit can be used to standardize flow cytometer settings and quantitatively detect molecules per cell.The flow cytometric method for detection of mNAP has important clinical application for differentiating bacterial and virus infection.
