Objective:To clarify the relationship between epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations and the clinicopathologic features of primary lung adenocarcinomas in Xinjiang.Methods:The mutations of EGFR gene at exons 18 -21 in 59 cases (including 15 cases of Uighur and 44 cases of Han) of lung adenocarcinoma tissues,which were obtained from surgical resection,were detected by amplifica-tion refractory mutation system (ARMS)method.And the relationships among mutations,race and clini-copathologic features were analyzed.Results:The frequencies of EGFR mutations in lung adenocarcinoma were 20% for Uighur,which was lower than that in Han (54.5%),P <0.05.The deletion mutations at exon 19 were seen in 2 of 15 Uighur cases and 9 of 44 Han cases.EGFR mutations were present,inclu-ding exon 21 L858R in one Uighur case and 12 Han cases,exon 18 G719X in two of 44 cases of Han, exon 21 L861Q in one of them.On histological type,the frequencies of EGFR mutation in alveolar pre-dominant adenocarcinoma was 71% (22 /31),which was higher than both that in solid predominant and mucinous carcinoma (6.7%,20% respectively).According to statistic analysis,EGFR mutations were without correlation with the patient’s gender,age,location,gross type,smoking status and lymph node metastasis(P >0.05).EGFR mutation was more frequent in well-differentiated cancer,mainly in acinar carcinoma,while poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma and mucous adenocarcinoma were lower.Conclu-sion:There was a difference of EGFR mutation in primary lung adenocarcinoma between Uighur and Han in Xinjiang,perhaps reflecting ethnic genetic variation,which is worth further analyzing.EGFR mutation was commonly detected in well or middle differentiated adenocarcinoma,mainly in acinar carcinoma.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and value of dual-energy perfusion imaging (DEPI) of dual-source CT(DSCT) in the diagnosis of acute experimental pulmonary embolism. Methods Acute pulmonary embolism ( PE ) model was made in 8 New Zealand rabbits, and non-enhanced and enhanced DSCT scans were performed before and after embelization. Postprocessing of image data was made on the workstation, and CT pulmonary angiography ( CTPA ), DEal and fusion images were obtained. The location and number of the emboli were recorded. The rabbits were killed immediately after DSCT scan, the location and number of the lung lobes with pulmonary emboli were evaluated pathologically. Based on the pathological results, the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value ( PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV) of CTA, DEal and fusion images for the diagnosis of PE were calculated. Weighted Kappa values were calculated to evaluate the consistency between CTPA and DEal. Results PE model was made successfully in 7 rabbits. Six rabbits with 30 lobes were evaluated with one exception because of the catheter affecting the quality of lung peffusian image. PE was found pathologically in 18 lobar arteries. On DEPI, the region with PE showed low peffusion area comparing with the normal parenchyma and CTPA showed the filling defect within corresponding pulmonary artery or interruption of the artery. The sensitivity, specificity, PPVand NPV of CTPA were 66. 7% (12/18), 100.0% (12/12), 100.0% (12/12) and 66. 7% (12/18), respectively. The Kappa value was 0. 651 indicating moderate correlation with pathology. The sensitivity, specificity, aPv, and NPV of DEal were 88. 9% ( 16/18), 91.7% ( 11/12, 94. 1% (16/17) and 84. 6% ( 11/13 ), respectively. The Kappa value was 0. 795 indicating excellent correlation with pathology. Conclusion Dual-energy lung perfusion imaging of DSCT can display the blood distribution of rabbit's lung and has a high sensitivity for the diagnosis of acute pulmonary embolism.

Objective To investigate the difference in intestinal flora among patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and normal population and to provide a basis for the early diagnosis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma as a marker. Methods DNA was extracted from biopsy tissue samples of 30 patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (observation group) and 25 healthy people (control group) by microbial amplification sequencing. The integrity and quality of DNA were detected. The composition and abundance of intestinal flora in the samples of the two groups were determined. Results A great similarity in beta diversity was found between the two groups, but some differences were also observed. The relative abundance of Proteobacteria and Verrucomicrobia in the observation group was higher than that in the control group (P<0.05). The relative abundance of Megamonas in the observation group was lower than that in the control group (P=0.025). Conclusion Strengthening the study on the changes in intestinal flora among patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma may be of great significance for its prevention and treatment.

OBJECTIVETo study the effect and safety of Kudiezi injection on patients with acute ischemic stroke.

METHODSeven hundreds patients were divided into two groups by central randomization system. The study group, 346 cases, was treated with kudiezi injection plus traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) synthesis rehabilitation project, and the control group, 354 cases, was treated with synthetic rehabilitation project. The patients were treated for 10 to 21 days. Before treatment and at the 7th, 14th and 21th day of treatment, the indexes include NIHSS used for evaluating the neurological deficit degree and the motor function score (Fugl-Meyer) for evaluating motor function were observed. The safety index is defined by adverse observation event and laboratory test. The incidence of adverse events and laboratory tests results were observed before and after treatment at the same time.

RESULTApplication of generalized estimating equation model, we found that as the treatment time, NIHSS score and FMI score of the two groups showed a trend of improvement. And at the 14th days and 21th days of treatment, compared to the control group the treatment group showed significant statistical difference on the impact of NIHSS and FMI (P<0.05). No serious adverse events were observed.

CONCLUSIONKudiezi injection plus TCM rehabilitation project of ischemic stroke showed some superiority to western medicine rehabilitation program on improving the neurological deficit and motor function. Kudiezi injection is safe and effective in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke.
