Methods We divided 123 patients with gastric cancer after operation into the test group (65 cases) and the control group (58 cases).The control group adopted routine treatment project while the test group received medieative diet for food therapy based on routine treatment project. The changes in hepatic functions were compared between the two groups. Results The changes in hepatic functions of the test group were better than those of the control group (P<0.01 ). Conclusion Medicative diet for food therapy could significantly restore the seriously damaged hepatic function after chemotherapy.

Objective To evaluate the value of magnetic resonance black-blood thrombus imaging (BTI) of the stage of disease in intracranial venous and sinus thrombosis(CVT).Methods From June 2015 to October 2016,37 patients with CVT diagnosed with routine imaging examinations in Beijing Xuanwu Hospital,Capital Medical University were enrolled prospectively,and they also underwent BTI examination.The patients were randomly divided into either a acute group (≤14 d,n=23) or a chronic group (>15 d,n=14) according to the time from the onset of symptoms to BTI.Signal to noise ratio(SNR) and contrast to noise ratio(CNR) difference between acute and chronic CVT groups were compared.The magnetic resonance venography (MRV) examination was used as a reference to calculate the accuracy of BTI on per-segment level.Results (1) The SNR and CNR of thrombosis in the acute group and chronic group were 206±97 and 94±41,201±96 and 86±40,respectively.There was significant difference between two groups (t=4.9 and 5.0 respectively;all P<0.01).(2) In 37 patients with CVT,the thrombi in 159 cerebral veins and venous sinus segments were detected with MRV.BTI identified the thrombi accurately in 152 vascular segments,and the thrombi in 352 vascular segments were eliminated.The diagnostic sensitivity and specificity were 95.6% (152/159) and 98.0% (352/359) respectively.Conclusion Achieving direct angiography of cerebral venous thrombosis,BTI technique can accurately differentiate acute or chronic thrombus.It has higher accuracy.

Objective To discuss the value of high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (HR-MRI) in the etiological diagnosis of patients with head and neck artery occlusion.Methods From December 2015 to February 2017,25 consecutive patients with acute head and neck artery occlusion in Xuanwu Hospital,Capital Medical University were enrolled prospectively.The 32-channel head-neck combined coils were used to conduct head-neck integrated HR-MRI.The characteristics of proximal vascular wall of the occluded vascular segments and the signal features of thrombi in the middle and distal segments of occlusion were analyzed.The evaluation of the occlusive etiology was performed by two neurologists according to the clinical history,laboratory examinations,and imaging examinations of the patients,and the accuracy of conventional lumen imaging and conventional lumen imaging combined with HR-MRI in etiological classification were compared.Results Twenty-five patients with acute head and neck artery occlusion completed HR-MRI examinations.A total of 31 segments of the occluded vessels were diagnosed,and 21 of these were diagnosed with the conventional luminal imaging,30 were diagnosed with the conventional luminal imaging+HR-MRI,including 24 segments of atherosclerotic occlusion (n=19),4 segments of arterial dissecting occlusion (n=4),and 3 segments of arteritis occlusion (n=2).(2) In patients with atherosclerotic occlusion,the eccentric thickening was observed in the proximal wall of occlusive segment;the typical double-lumen or crescent-shaped hyperintense hematoma were observed in occlusive arterial dissection;long-segment annular thickening and enhancement were observed in the segment of arteritis occlusion.(3) The accuracy of the cause classification diagnosis of conventional luminal imaging and conventional luminal imaging+HR-MRI were 67.7% (21/31) and 96.8% (30/31) respectively (P<0.01).Conclusions Compared with the luminal imaging,the head and neck combined HR-MRI can reveal the arterial wall characteristics of the initial segment of occlusion.It has certain advantages in the interpretation of the causes,such as atherosclerosis,arterial dissection and arteritis.

60 patients with pathologically diagnosed erosive lichen planus of bilateral buccal mucosa were included.The lesion on one side was treated by local application of triamcinolone acetonide dental paste(test group),the lesion on the other side without treatment was used in the control group.7,1 4,21 and 28 d after treatment the pain level and the lesion situation scores in the test group decreased significantly (P <0.001 ),and lower than those in the control group at the same time point(P <0.05).No adverse reaction was found in the 2 groups. Triamcinolone Acetonide Dental Paste is effective in the treatment of erosive oral lichen planus.

Printed-circuit-board ion trap (PCBIT) is a novel ion trap mass analyzer,which is capable of optimizing its internal electric field distributions by adjusting the radio frequency (RF) voltage-divided ratio to improve its analytical performance.This work introduced odd electric field components into the trapping volume to achieve unidirectional ion ejection by applying asymmetric RF voltages to x electrode pairs of PCBIT.In this case,the center of ion vibration was displaced away from the geometrical center of PCBIT and ions were ejected predominantly through one of x electrode pairs.The relationship between asymmetric voltage-divided ratio (AV) and internal electric field distributions was investigated by simulation software SIMION and AXSIM.At the same time,the ion trajectories and simulated mass spectrum peaks were calculated.The results showed that,for ions with m/z 609 Th,a mass resolution over 2500 and an ion unidirectional ejection efficiency of over 90％ were achieved in PCBIT with AV=20％ at an appropriate frequency of AC.Using this method,ion unidirectional ejection efficiency of PCBIT can be significantly improved while maintaining a high mass resolution,which makes the PCBIT more suitable for developing miniaturized mass spectrometer.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of reoperation in patients with Crohn's disease recurrence.Methods The clinical data of 108 patients with Crohn's disease who were admitted to the Peking Union Medical College Hospital from March 2004 to September 2013 were retrospectively analyzed.Of the 108 patients,82 received single operation and 26 received reoperation.Twenty-five factors which might influence the reoperation were analyzed,which were gender,age,blood type,preoperative levels of white blood cells,neutrophils,lymphocytes hemoglobin,albumin,prealbumin,high sensitive-C reactive protein (hs-CRP),anti-saccharomyces cerevisiae antibody (ASCA),anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA),location and type of the lesions,extraintestinal manifestation,perianal lesions,history of smoking,appendectomy,course of the disease before the first operation,pre-operative administration of immunosuppressants,body mass index (BMI) before the first operation,onodera prognostic nutrition index (OPNI),enteral nutrition,emergent operation,complications after the first operation.The univariate analysis was done using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability,and the multivariate analysis was done using the Logistic regression model.Results The results of univariate analysis showed that the level of preoperative prealbumin,hs-CRP,location and type of the lesion,the history of smoking,preoperative administration of immunosuppressants,enteral nutrition before the first operation were the risk factors of reoperation in patients with Crohn's disease (x2=5.928,4.805,7.491,12.363,5.229,9.026,16.506,P ＜ 0.05).The results of multivariate analysis showed that the lesion located at the ileocolon,administration of immunosuppressants prior to the first operation for 1 year and energy provided by enteral nutrition under 500 kcal/d before the first operation were the independent risk factors of reoperation (OR =1.908,3.535,5.489,95％ confidence interval:1.035-3.518,1.087-11.494,1.816-16.590,P＜0.05).Conclusions Patients with lesions located at the ileocolon,administration of immunosuppresants prior to the first operation for 1 year and energy provided by enteral nutrition under 500 kcal before the first operation have higher risk of Crohn's disease recurrence and reoperation.

Objective:To test the expression of Minichromosome maintenance complex component 7(MCM7) protein in hepato-cellular carcinoma(HCC) of different species including human, rat and tree shrew (tupaia) by cross-species oncogenomics approach, and to investigate the relationship between the expression of MCM7 and the development of hepatocellular carcinoma and its clinical significance. Methods:Western blot and Immunohistochemistry were applied to detect the expression levels of MCM7 protein in HCC tissues,corresponding HCC-adjacent liver tissues and normal liver tissues collected from different species including human, rat and tree shrew, respectively. The clinicopathologic factors were also analyzed with the results of Immunohistochemistry. Results:Western blot analysis showed that the expression of MCM7 protein in HCC tissues of human and rat were higher than that in corresponding HCC-ad-jacent liver tissues and normal liver tissues, respectively and significantly (P<0.05). However, the expression of MCM7 protein in HCC tissues of tree shrew were also higher than that in corresponding HCC-adjacent liver tissues and normal liver tissues, but no significant difference was found among three types of tissues (P>0.05).There was also no significant difference between HCC-adjacent liver tis-sues and normal liver tissues in three species (P>0.05). Immunohistochemical analysis showed that MCM7 protein was mainly ex-pressed in nucleus of HCC cells, and the positive rate of MCM7 protein in HCC tissues of human, rat and tree shrew were significantly higher than that in corresponding HCC-adjacent liver tissues and normal liver tissues, respectively (P<0.05). However, no significant difference was found between HCC-adjacent liver tissues and normal liver tissues (P>0.05). Moreover, the protein level of MCM7 was intimately related to patient's HCC stage, extrahepatic metastases and postoperative recurrence (P<0.05). Conclusion:MCM7 protein might play a pivotal role in hepatocarcinogenesis. In addition, it was probably related to patient's HCC stage, extrahepatic metastases and postoperative recurrence. It seems very likely that MCM7 may be applied as a new molecular target in HCC prevention and treat-ment.
