Metformin is a first-line drug for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Recently, some clinical studies have been published reporting a reduced incidence of various neoplastic disease (eg. breast cancer, endometrial cancer and gastrointestinal cancer) in diabetic or nondiabetic patients treated with metformin. Metformin inhibits the mammalian target of rapamycin by activating liver kinase B1 (LKB1)/adenosine 5'-monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) or decreases blood insulin levels, resulting in inhibition of cancer cell growth. There are also many other mechanisms involved in anti-tumor effect of metformin. Although metformin has significant effect on cancers, the prospects for it as an alternative treatment modality and mechanism in various kinds of tumors need further research.

Objective To summarize the imaging features of intra-pancreatic accessory spleen (IPAS)with multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) and improve the awareness and correct diagnosis of IPAS.Methods MDCT images of seven consecutive patients with surgically and pathologically confirmed IPAS were reviewed retrospectively.The investigated features included the location,size,shape,margin,density,and enhancement of the lesions.Results Four patients were male and three were female with a mean age of 49 years old.All the lesions were located at the dorsal side of parenchyma under the capsule of pancreatic tail.Three lesions were in round-like shape,and 4 in oval shape and all were well-defined.All the lesions were mass-like without necrosis and calcification.The maximum diameter of lesion ranged from 0.9 ～ 1.8 cm with a mean value of 1.4 cm.Compared with pancreatic parenchyma,the density of lesions were homogeneous on unenhanced CT,in arterial phase,slightly increased heterogeneous density was observed in 3 patients,slightly increased homogeneous density was observed in 4 patients.All the lesions appeared as slightly increased homogeneous density in portal phase.The CT value in unenhanced phase ranged from 50 ～ 61 Hu with a mean number of 55 Hu; and it ranged from 80 ～ 110 Hu with a mean number of 97 Hu in arterial phase; and the corresponding value was from 99 ～ 120 Hu with a mean number of 102 Hu in portal phase.Among the three patients underwent MDCT angiography,neither artery nor vein was compressed or invaded,and there was no vessel connected with lesions.Conclusions IPAS has some MDCT characteristics.For small solid mass in pancreatic tail,if the density and enhancement pattern is similar to that of spleen,the diagnosis of IPAS should be considered.

Objective To study the baseline level of fraction anisotropy (FA) and the normal value of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) in deep white matter of preterm and its application.Methods From Oct.2010 to Dec.2013,in Department of Neonatology,Jiangsu Province Hospital,magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (T1,T2) and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) were done on 13 preterm infants of less than 37 weeks of corrected gestational age (CA),42 preterm infants of term-matched age,and 15 term infants.ADC and FA were measured in genu and splenium of corpus callosum (CC),anterior limb and posterior limb of internal capsule (IC).Results 1.The ADC values in genu,splenium,anterior limb of right IC,posterior limb of right IC,anterior limb of left IC,posterior limb of left IC in CA ＜ 37 weeks infants were higher than those in term-matched infants and in term infants.The ADC values in the 6 regions in term-matched infants and in term infants were significantly different with those in CA ＜ 37 weeks infant(F =5.559,5.775,21.948,19.462,30.586,15.452,all P ＜ 0.01).The differences of ADC values between CA ＜ 37 weeks infants and term-matched infants,between CA ＜37 weeks infants and term infants were significant(all P ＜0.05),except that in CC between CA ＜ 37 weeks infants and term-matched infants.2 The FA values in genu,splenium,anterior limb of right IC,posterior limb of right IC,anterior limb of left IC,posterior limb of left IC in CA ＜ 37 weeks infants were lower than those in term-matched infants and in term infants.The FA values in the 6 regions in term-matched infants and in term infants were significantly different from those in CA ＜ 37 weeks infants (F =9.835,7.500,4.811,11.430,8.674,12.666,all P ＜ 0.01).The differences of FA values between CA ＜ 37 weeks infants and term-matched infants (P ＜ 0.05),between CA ＜ 37 weeks infants and term infants were significant (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The baseline values of FA and ADC in different deep white matters were obtained.As corrected gestational age of preterm babies' increased,FA values in brain white matter increased,while ADC values decreased.The myelination in most white matter of preterm infants at matched term can catch up with that of term infants.The diagnostic value of ADC and FA needs to be studied further.

Objective To discuss the application of spectral CT imaging in evaluating the early therapeutic response of 125I seed interstitial brachytherapy for pancreatic carcinoma in experimental nude mice.Methods BxPC-3 human pancreatic cancer cell xenografts were subcutaneously inoculated at the dorsal part of the limbs in 16 BABL/c nude mice. When the tumor developed to the size of 1-1.5 cm, the tumor-bearing mice were randomly divided into the study group (n=8,receiving implantation of 125I seeds of 1.0 mCi) and the control group (n=8,receiving implantation of ghost shell particles of 0 mCi). Two weeks after the procedure, plain spectral CT scan as well as enhanced multiphase (10 s, 25 s and 60 s) spectral CT scan were performed to obtain multi-phasic image series. The contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) and iodine concentration (IC) inside the lesions were determined, and the normalized iodine concentrations (nIC) of tumor were thus obtained. Immunohistochemical staining of tumor was used to measure microvessel density (MVD) within the tumor;the correlation between nIC and MVD was analyzed. Results The lesion's nICs measured on each of three phases (10 s,25 s and 60 s) in the study group were lower than those in the control group, the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). MVD count in the study group was lower than that in the control group, the difference was statistically significant (t=5.957,P<0.01). A parallel linear correlation existed between nIC obtained from each phase of three phases and MVD count (r=0.63,P<0.000 1;r=0.51,P=0.002;and r=0.48,P=0.001 7 for 10 s, 25 s and 60 s phases respectively). Conclusion Spectral CT imaging is an effective method for evaluating the therapeutic effect of 125I seed interstitial brachytherapy for pancreatic carcinoma of experimental mice.

Objective To explore the mechanisln of action of Jianpiyishen Decotion on renal fibrosis and provide experimental evidence for chnieal application.Methods The Wistar male rats were randomly divided into four groups.They were normal control group(N group),model group(M group),low dose treatment group(L group)and high dose treatment group(H group).AⅡanimal models were made of CRF with subtotal renal ablation except the N group.Interference began at one week after operation.After being interfered for 8 weeks,blood serunl and nephridial tissues were taken out.Serum urea nitrogen(BUN)and creatinine(Scr)and fibronectin(FN)were detected.Results In N group。There were light expression in renal tubniointerstitial substance,cellula epithelialis basal meulbnule and Vascular smooth muscle.In M group,FN was strong expressed in renal tubulointerstitial substance and renal tubde,and also in glomerular mesangium.There was significant difference between N and M group(P

Objective The study the multislice spiral computed tomography (MSCT) characteristics of gastric glomus tumor. Methods The clinical data of 8 patients with gastric glomus tumor were retrospectively analyzed, and the MSCT characteristics were observed. Results Among 8 patients, 3 cases were male and 5 cases were female, and the age was 25-67 years. The diameter of lesions were 1.3-3.5 cm, and lesions situated in the antrum of the stomach. Gastric glomus tumor showed strong enhancement in the arterial phase, and prolonged enhancement during multiphasic scans. Conclusions Gastric glomus tumor has some characteristics in MSCT. The prolonged enhancement during multiphasic scans of the subepithelial lesion should be suspected of the gastric glomus tumor.

Objective To retrospectively analyze imaging features of multi-slica computed tomography (MSCT) and clinical characteristics of male patients with pancreas solid pseudopapillary tumor (SPT) and compare with that of female patients.Methods From November 2000 to October 2012,clinical data of 18 male patients and 94 female patients underwent MSCT examination and pathological diagnosed as SPT were retrospectively analyzed.Clinical characteristics and imaging features of MSCT of male and female patients with SPT were analyzed,which included lesion location,size,shape,encapsulation,calcification,internal composition,density and enhancement pattern of tumors.Rank sum test or x2 test was performed for statistical analysis.Results The median age of male patients with SPT was significantly older than that of female patients (39.0 (15.0,67.0) years vs 27.5 (11.0,63.0) years; U=2.865,P =0.005).There were no significant differences in clinical manifestation,lesion location and composition ratio of benign and malignant tumors between male and female patients with SPT (all P＞0.05).Imaging of MSCT indicated that the median maximum tumor diameter of male patients with SPT was significantly shorter than that of female patients (5.1 (1.0,11.6) cm vs 7.9 (2.5,18.7) cm; U=3.161,P=0.002).Solid tumors were more common in male patients compared with female patients (9/18 vs 5.3％ (5/94) ; x2 =30.606,P＜0.01).Conclusions The imaging features of male patients with SPT are different with those of females.For pancreas lesion in males,if imaging of MSCT shows more solid composition,small lesion and with typical enhancement patterns of SPT,the possibility of SPT should be considered.

This paper explored the joint teaching model between universities and hospitals.Clinical practice teaching based on medical ethics was carried out,choosing academic leader of teaching and research section of medical ethics as the core and relying on ethic committee of affiliated hospital as the support.Three teaching methods were integrated:theoretical introduction-case analysis-multi-role discussion(doctor,patient's organization,medical ethic specialist),which rendered ethical teaching more practical and operational.Facing the dilemma of present hospital environment,introducing medical ethic and other human sciences into clinical practices and other medical organization was evidently a better choice than strengthening police forces in hospital.

The medical ethics curriculum education in American universities developed earlier,was more ma-ture,and has conducted more practice and exploration in various aspects of curriculum setting,teaching objectives, teaching content,teaching methods,evaluation methods,and faculty and so on. Taking medical ethics curriculum ed-ucation in University of Pittsburgh as an example,this paper expounded the concrete practice of all above aspects in American colleges and universities,and using this as a reference,hoped to have enlightenment to medical ethics ed-ucation and medical humanities education in China.
