Objective To investigate the expressions of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and P63 protein in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and their relationship with TNM staging and lymph node metastasis of NSCLC. Methods Seventy-eight paraffin-embedded specimens of NSCLC from 1998-2005 were collected in this study. Inclusion criteria included no chemotherapy or radiotherapy before operation. Pathological diagnosis was made after operation: 43 squamous carcinoma and 35 adenocarcinoma, 45 with lymph node metastasis and 33 without, 13 in stage Ⅰ, 19 in stage Ⅱ, 28 in stage Ⅲ and 18 in stage Ⅳ. The expressions of EGFR, COX-2 and P63 were determined by immunohistochemical staining (S-P). Results The expression rates of EGFR, COX-2 and P63 were 65.4% (51/78), 61.5% (48/78) and 56.4% (44/78) respectively in 78 cases of NSCLC. Significant difference in the expressions of COX-2 and P63 was found between squamous carcinoma and adenocarcinoma (P0.05). The positive rate of EGFR and COX-2 protein expressions in NSCLC of stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ and NSCLC with lymph node metastasis was significantly higher than that in stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ and NSCLC without lymph node metastasis (P0.05). Conclusion Over-expressions of EGFR and COX-2 may play an important role in invasion and metastasis of NSCLC. COX-2 and P63 may be valuable markers in differentiating pulmonary squamous cell carcinoma from pulmonary adenocarcinoma.

Abstract: Objective To explore the effect of family rehabilitation on growth and development of children with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). Methods 80 children with moderate HIE were divided into control group (n=40) and observation group (n=40). The control group received routine intervention and nursing, and the observation group accepted family rehabilitation in addition. Mental development index (MDI) and psychomoter developmental index (PDI) were compared when they were 3 and 6 months old with intellectual development testing, and their development quotients (DQ) were compared at the age of 1 year. Results The MDI and PDI scores were higher (P<0.01) in the observation group than in the control group when they were 3 and 6 months old. The DQ were higher (P<0.05) in the observation group than in the control group when they were 1 year old. Conclusion Family rehabilitation can promote the development of intelligence in children with HIE.

Objective To explore the effect of indoxyl sulfate (IS) on the differentiation, maturation and immunological function of human monocyte derived dendritic cells (mDCs), in order to provides evidence for mechanism of IS in atherosclerosis. Methods Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells isolated by double gradient centrifugation were cultured for immature mDCs by rhGM?CSF and rhIL?4 in vitro. All cases were randomly divided into PBS group, LPS group(1 μg/mL), IS.1 group(30 μmol/L), IS.2 group(300 μmol/L)and IS.3 group (600 μmol/L). The phenotypic maturation of mDCs was evaluated by flow cytometry (FCM) and functional maturation of mDCs was analyzed by measuring FITC?dextran uptake and ELISA. Results IS significantly upregulated the expression of CD80, CD83, CD86 and MHC II key membrane molecules on mDCs, while downregulating phagocytosis and increasing the secretion of IL?12p70 by mDCs (P<0.05). And the LPS and IS showed typical morphology with rough surface, long protrusions and fusiform. 300 μmol/L IS is the most appropriate stimulus concentration. Conclusion Stuctural, phenotypic and functional maturation of dendritic cells derived from human monocytes can be induced by indoxal sulphate at defined concentrations, which may be one of the mechanisms involved in the process of atherosclerosis.

Objective In attempt to improve the reconstruction of small defects in the facial and frontal regions, we developed a modified radial artery perforator-based free flap. Methods The free proxi-mal radial forearm flap was based on the distal perforator of the radial artery and the concomitant radial vein. The vascular pedicle passed through deep fascia. The free flap was transferred to repair the defects of the fa-cial and frontal regions. Results In 6 patients with frontal defects and 4 patients with facial defects, all flaps survived completely. After following up for 6-12 months, flaps underwent plastic surgery to become thin-ner. The flaps of 10 cases were good in skin texture and color at recipient sites. The scars were cosmetically acceptable. The superficial sensibility recovered well. Conclusion A modified radial artery perforator-based free flap was useful in coveting small defects of the facial and frontal regions.
