Objective To investigate the expression and clinical significance of fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) and human teclomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tissues and analyze the correlation between them.Methods The expression of FGF-2 and hTERT were detected by immunohistochemistry in 90 NSCLC tissues and 20 non-lung carcinoma tissues.The correlation between the expression and clinicopathological features was also analyzed.Results The positive expressions of FGF-2(66.7％ ) and hTERT (75.6％) in NSCLC tissues were significantly higher than that in nonlung carcinoma tissues (15％ and 20％,respectively),P ＜0.01.The expression of FGF-2 and hTERT were significantly related to TNM stages and lymph node metastasis (P ＜ 0.01 ),but not to histological types,sex and age of NSCLC patients ( P ＞ 0.05 ).A positive correlation was found between the expressions of FGF-2 and hTERT in NSCLC(P ＜ 0.01 ).Conclusion The expression of FGF-2 and hTERT in NSCLC,which can be regarded as important references for prognosis of NSCLC,play important roles in the initiation and development of NSCLC.

Objective To observe age-dependent feature of damage of hippocampus to different maturational stages rats after kindling repeated seizures.Methods The effects of 5 daily pentylenetetrazol-induced convulsions in different rats beginning at postnatal day 10,20,60(P10,P20,P60)were evaluated.In the 3 groups,Thionin staining method was utilized to observe morphological changes and cell counting of dentate granule cells,CA3,CA1,and hilar neurons.Timm's method of silver sulfide staining was adopted to observe the mossy fiber sprouting.Results 1.Cell counting of CA1,CA3 and hilar neurons in P10 and P20 groups demonstrated no differences from controls in rats,whereas P60 with daily seizures had a significant decrease in CA1,CA3 neurons(8.22?1.88,5.62?1.68 vs 6.31?1.50,3.62?1.40)(t=2.246,2.587 Pa

Objective To investigate the effects of nutritional support on the hypermetabolism of patients with digestive tract fistula complicated with severe abdominal infection. Methods Twenty-nine patients with digestive tract fistula complicated with severe abdominal infection were administered parenteral nutrition (PN) for 4 to 8 days, and then followed by enteral nutrition (EN) or EN + PN. The body weight, serum albumin, transferrin, prealbumin, fibronectin were monitored before and on the 10th and 28th day after nutritional support. Results The levels of serum prealbumin and fibronectin were increased significantly on the 10th day after nutritional support (t = 3.72, 3.52, P <0.01). The body weight, the levels of serum albumin, transferrin, prealbumin and fibronectin were significantly higher than those before nutritional support (t=3.97, 6.57, 7.09, 3.51, 3.58, P<0.01). Conclusion Nutritional support is effective in alleviating hypermetabolism of patients with digestive tract fistula complicated with severe abdominal infection.

This paper reports the perioperative care of a patient undergoing the bilateral posterior ventral globus pallidus deep brain stimulation treatment for neuroacanthocytosis. The nursing points mainly included psychological care of the patient before surgery,preoperative preparation,postoperative care and special nursing before and after deep brain stimulation opening. The patient's dance-like involuntary movements and compulsive behavior reduced significantly after the treatment with no complications.

Objective To investigate the effective and inexpensive therapy to partial denture arches with seriously interlaced occlusion. Methods Occlusal reconstructions with fixed and removable prosthesis were taken to cure partial denture arches with seriously interlaced occlusion. Masticatory efficiency was measured and X-rays of Schillers position were taken before and after therapy. Results After therapy masticatory efficiency was raised. And the function of TMJ was better. Conclusion Occlusal reconstruction with fixed and removable prosthesis is an effective way to cure partial denture arches with seriously interlaced occlusion.

Objective:To observe the curative effect of potassium magnesium aspartate in the auxiliary treatment of ventricular pre -mature beat.Methods:Totally 70 patients with ventricular premature beat were randomly divided into the observation group (36 ca-ses) and the control group (34 cases).The patients were treated with metoprolol , and the patients in the observation group was treated with potassium magnesium aspartate as the auxiliary therapy , and the patients in the control group were treated with potassium chloride sustained release tablets as the adjuvant treatment .After 3-week continuous treatment , the changes of serum potassium , serum creatine kinase, creatine kinase, lactate dehydrogenase and ECG were observed in the two groups .The therapeutic effects and adverse drug re-actions were compared between the two groups .Results: After the treatment , the levels of serum potassium , serum creatine kinase isoenzyme, creatine kinase and lactate dehydrogenase were significantly improved when compared with those before the treatment (P<0.05), and the improvement of the observation group were significantly better than that of the control group (P<0.05).After the treatment, the heart rate and PR interval in the two groups were significantly improved (P<0.05), and there was no significant differ-ences between the two groups (P>0.05).The total effective rate of the observation group was 91.67%, which was higher than that of the control group (82.35%, P<0.05).The incidence of adverse drug reactions in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P<0.05).Conclusion:Potassium magnesium aspartate in the adjuvant treatment of ventricular premature beat can significantly improve the levels of serum potassium and serum myocardial enzyme and heart rate and ECG of the patients , and the efficacy and the incidence of adverse drug reactions are better than those of potassium chloride sustained -release tablets in the adju-vant treatment .

Objective To analyse the pathologic changes and MRI appearances of mitrial atresia (MA). Methods MRI appearances of 5 cases with MA confirmed by operation were reviewed and compared with angiocardiography (CAG). Results MRI demonstrated the pathologic characteristics of three types of MA according to the traditional classification:biventricular hearts with imperforate mitral valve (1 case),univentricular heart of right ventricular type with absent left atrioventricular connection (3 cases) and univentricular heart of left ventricular type with imperforate mitral valve (1 case).MRI still provided anatomic information of associated anomalies including mainly aneurysms of atrial septum (1 case),total anomalous pulmonary venous drainge into superior vena cava (1 case),absent left pulmonary artery (1 case) and pulmonary stenosis (4 cases). The right atrial and(or) ventricular angiocardiograms in the 5 cases could not display the anatomic morphology of the malformation,with exception of one case only. Conclusion MRI is valuable in diagnosis of MA.
