lnsulin-like growth factor (IGF) system has multiple bioactivities,such as regulating cell proliferation and differentiation,and inhibiting apoptosis and so on.In vivo and in vitro experiments have confirmed that IGF system takes part in the malignant transformation of cells and is related to the growth,invasion and metastasis of toumor.IGF system will be applied to early screening and target therapy for colorectal cancer.

A self-prescribed recipe of drug for purging turbid, Resolving Dampness and Dispelling Phlegm was employed in the treatment group (N = 54) with combination of allopurinol, and compared its effect with that in the control group (N = 36) only with allopurinol. The total effective rate in the treatment group (92.59%) was significantly higher (P

0.05) was observed. Bcl 2 expression was related with differentiation of GC(P0.05).Conclusion: p53,bcl 2,c erbB 2 may be involved in the development of GC.

Objective To investigate the feasibility and cosmetic results of endoscopic thyroidectomy via breast areola approach.Methods From January 2004 to January 2006,endoscopic thyroidectomy was performed through the breast areola approach in 18 patients with benign thyroid mass.Results The surgery was accomplished successfully in all the 18 cases.The operation time ranged 45-120 min(mean,62 min) for unilateral resection and 90-180 min(mean,98 min) for bilateral resection.The intraoperative blood loss ranged 6-20 ml(mean,11 ml) for unilateral resection,and 15-70 ml(mean,29.5 ml) for bilateral resection.Postoperative hospital stay was 3-5 days.No complication occurred after the operation.The patients were followed up for 6-12 months(mean,9 months).The wound healed well in all the patients,inconspicuous scars or no recurrence was observed during the follow-up.Conclusions Endoscopic thyroidectomy via breast areola approach is a safe and feasible procedure with satisfying neck cosmetic outcome.

Objective To investigate the nutrition status and quality of life(QOL)in the perioperative patients with laryngeal cancer and to analyze the effect of nutrition status on quality of life.Methods Sixty-six patients with laryngeal cancer were surveyed respectively by self-designed general situation questionnaire,nutritional risk srcreening 2002(NRS2002)and European organization for research and treatment of cancer quality of life core questionnaire(EORTC QLQ-C30).The impact of nutritional status on QOL was analyzed by the multiple linear regression analysis.Results The total score of nutritional risk of perioperative patients with laryngeal cancer was 3.53±1.51 and the incidence of nutritional risk was 28.79%.The nutrition status influenced on QOL, physiological function,cognitive function and pain area(P<0.05).Conclusion Nurses should assess the nutritional status of the patients and correct malnutrition without delay in order to improve the physical function and QOL of the patients.

Objective To assess the clinical value of vascular enhancement technology (VET) in diagnosis of fetal pulmonary sequestration (PS).Methods Color Doppler velocity (CDV),color Doppler energy (CDE) and VET were performed in 11 fetus with PS to display the vessels in region of interest.Results The abnormal vessels in region of interest were displayed in distinct degree with CDV,CDE and VET.The courser and disposition of the great vessels were displayed with CDV and CDE,while lumen of blood vessel was clearly discriminated with VET,while CDV depicted the direction of blood flow.Satisfaction assessment of the VET image was superior than those of CDV and CDE image (P<0.05).No difference was found between the satisfaction assessment of the CDV and CDE images (P>0.05).Conclusion VET can improve the contrast resolution,having superiority in displaying vessels and fine branches,therefore has clinical value in the diagnosis of fetal PS.

Objective To study the effect of sub-glottal convergence angle on the degree of glottal closure, and to analyze the potential mechanism of dysphonia by the incomplete glottal closure.Methods Three vocal fold positions (adduction, intermediate and abduction) were evaluated by the degree of glottal closure, and divided into three groups.The neck CT images of the subjects were gathered.The vocal folds were adduction group when the normal subjects made a sustaining phonation /i:/ during CT scanning;the vocal folds were abduction group when the normal subjects made a deep breathing during CT scanning, and the unilateral vocal folds were incomplete closing group when the unilateral vocal fold paralysis subjects made a deep breathing during CT scanning.3D models of the vocal folds and the airway were reconstructed using Mimics software, through which the sub-glottal convergence angle was measured.Using one-way factor analysis of variance, we compared the angle among three groups.Results The angle changed with degree of glottal closure, with statistically significant differences among the three groups(P<0.01).The means of the angle in three groups were 33.49°±3.75°, 55.03°±2.61° and 75.02°±7.32°.Conclusion The 3D model generation from CT data is an effective method of measuring the sub-glottal convergence angle, while the angle changes with the degree of glottis closure.The angle may affect sub-glottal pressure distribution in the sub-glottal shear or normal direction and influence vocal fold vibration, which would make vibration and vocal fold mucosal wave generation more difficult, and might cause dysphonia.

Objective: To investigate effect of exogenous wild-type p53 gene on the cell growth and tumorigenicity of human gallbladder cancer cell lines. Methods: After identification of the genetic status of p53 gene of GBC-SD cell lines with the immunocytochemistry staining and the direct sequencing technique of PCR products, eukaryotic expressing plasmid pCMV-p53 was introduced by lipofectamine-mediated into GBC-SD cell lines. Growing transfected cells were selected by G418. The presence and expression of exogenous p53 gene was detected by PCR, RT-PCR and Western blot. The cellular proliferating ability was assessed using the cell growth curve and cloning assay. The xenograft in nude mice was performed to examine the effect of tumorigenicity. Results: P53 protein overexpression was showed in GBC-SD cell lines. A transversion of TAC→AAC at codon 126 of exon 5 was confirmed. PCR, RT-PCR and Western blot showed exogenous p53 gene had successfully transfected into GBC-SD cells and obtained high expression. The growth and proliferation of the cells were greatly decreased, and the tumorigenicity was significantly inhibited after transfection wtp53. Conclusion: The expression of exogenous wild-type p53 gene could effectively inhibit the growth of gallbladder cancer GBC-SD cells in vitro and in vivo.
