Objective To present the CT and MRI findings of the fibrous dysplasia(FD) of the spine.Methods CT and MRI findings were retrospectively evaluated in 19 cases of FD of spine,all of which were confirmed pathologically.Nineteen patients underwent CT plain scanning(19/19) and 5 had enhanced CT scanning(5/19).Patients were also examined by MRI plain scan(11/11) or MRI enhanced scan (6/11).The location of tumors,the type of bone destruction,the boundary of lesions,internal intensity or signal,the enhancement pattern of lesions,and presence of compression fractures,spinal deformity were observed.Result Nine cases had monostotic FD,while 10 had polyostotic FD.In all the 49 lesions of 19 cases,13 lesions were located in the cervical vertebrae,23 lesions in the thoracic vertebrae,11 lesions in lumbar vertebrae,and 2 lesions in sacral vertebrae.Thirty-three lesions involved both vertebral body and appendix.Pure osteolysis were found in 26 lesions on CT examinations.Peripheral osteosclerosis rims (41/49) and expansive lesions(32/49) were seen.Residual bone crest(28/49) and ground-glass opacity(23/49)were noted.Different degrees of vertebral compression were found in 19 lesions.Five patients had spinal deformity.On T1WI,14 lesions showed intermediate or low signal,and 10 lesions presented as heterogeneous signal.On T2WI,6 lesions had low signal intensity,4 lesions were noted as hyperintensive,and 14 lesions presented as heterogeneous signal.Multiple fluid-fluid levels were found in 1 lesion.Low signal rims were seen in 14 lesions.Twenty lesions of 11 patients had significant enhancement.Conclusion Expansive pattern,ground-glass opacity,peripheral osteosclerosis rims and significant enhancement were helpful findings for the diagnosis of spinal FD.

Objective　To study the visual electrophyological changes in　patients with pregnancy-induced hypertension syndrome(PIH).Methods　The visual evoked potentials (VEP) and electroretinogram (ERG) of 28 patients with PIH in 56 eyes were recorded.Results　The patients with PIH had pathologic visual electrophysiologic abnormalities. The VEP N75 peak latency significantly increased(P<0.05), and the ERG b wave latency in patients with PIH showed remarkable difference(P<0.05).Conclusion　Visual electrophysiological examination may be valuable in early diagnosis of retinal disfunction in patients with PIH.

Human DAB2 interaction protein (DAB2IP) is a novel member of Ras GTPase-activating protein family. It interacts directly with disabled-2 protein (DAB2/DOC2) which suppresses growth of cancers derived from different tissues, including mammary, prostate and ovarian cancers. DAB2IP was identified as an immediate downstream effector mediated by DAB2/DOC2. DAB2IP and DAB2/DOC2 form a unique protein complex that has a negative regulatory effect on the Ras-mediated signal pathway. It is demonstrated that DAB2IP is a tumor suppressor gene inactivated by methylation in several cancers. This article reviews the structure and biological functions of DAB2IP gene as well as its potential roles in carcinogenesis and evolution.

Objective: To explore the effect of health insurance on consumption for rural and urban households. Methods: Using empirical study with the method of quasi-social experiment. Results: Households with health insurance have more consumption than those without health insurance. The higher the coverage of family health insurance improves, the more effects medical insurance would encourage family consumption. Meanwhile, the marginal effect of health insurance on rural households ’ consumption is much bigger than that of urban households. Conclusion: Through enhancing households’ risk tolerance, health insurance reduces households’ precautionary saving motivation and impels to increase the current consumption.

Objective To construct the Chinese cancer-related fatigue assessment tool by using Delphi technique.Methods A certain number of expels were chosen for consulting to form a consuiting scale.Two-round consultations were conducted and the results were analyzed.Results The Chinese cancer-related fatigue assessment scale was formed after 2-round consultation,including 3 dimensions and 20 items,which were:8 items for the physical fatigue,5 items for mental fatigue,7 items for emotional condition.Conclusions The Chinese cancer-related fatigue assessment scale formed by Delphi technique provides a research tool to evaluate fatigue of Chinese cancer patients accurately and presents targeted nursing interventions.

Objective To explore the effect of quality control circle activity on improving the quality of nursing document writing. Methods The quality control circle was established and the activity was designed to improve the quality of nursing document writing. The unqualification rate of written nursing documents was compared between pre- and post-activity. Result The unqualification rate of the written nursing documents after the activity was significantly lower than that before activity (P < 0.01). Conclusion The quality of written nursing documents can be improved by developing quality control circle activity.

Objective To detect normal rat jejunum epithelial cells to learn about the distribution of peptide YY(PYY)receptor and measured two important parameters of PYY receptor so as to explore the target that PYY binds to and display its physiological function.Methods Receptor radioligand assay was conducted by using 125I-PYY to detect normal rat jejunum epithelial cells.We also measured receptor dissociation constant(Kd),the affinity or the ability that the receptor could bind ligand;maximum binding capacity(Bmax),the concentration of binding site;and Hill coefficient.Results There were PYY receptors in normal rat jejunum epithelial cells.Dissociation constant(Kd)of PYY receptor was(386.69?129.95)pmol/L.Maximum binding capacity(Bmax)was(303.21?116.85)fmol/mg protein.Hill coefficient was 1.PYY receptor had high affinity.Conclusion There are distributions of PYY receptors in normal rat jejunum epithelial cells.Kd means that PYY receptor has high affinity.Bmax means that the number of receptors is limited and decides the characters of saturability.We think that PYY directly inhibits secretion by binding to PYY receptor in jejunum epithelial cells when PYY inhibiting jejunum secretion.

Objective To isolate and culture meshenchymal stem cells from murine fetal liver.Methods flMSCs from mouse fetuses were isolated by adhering to plastic surface.Growth kinetics was determined by growth curve.Cell cycle and phenotype were analyzed by FACSan flow cytometry.Differentiation of adhering cells was induced and identified.Results Homogenous fibroblast-like cells were predominated in culture.The counting of flMSCs increased 2 fold after 24 hours and 83.76%?2.88% of flMSCs were in G0/G1 phases.flMSCs were CD44,CD29 positive but negative for the markers of hematopoietic cells such as CD45,CD11b.flMSCs were able to differentiate along adipogenic,chondrogenic and osteogenic pathways even after being passaged several times.ConclusionflMSCs can be isolated by their plastic-attachable property and can expand without losing their multiple differentiation potential in vitro.flMSCs may offer an appropriate cell source for stem cell therapy.

Objective:This paper aimed to investigate citizens' cognition and willingness to living organ dona-tion and to provide advice for the development of living organ donation.Methods:A sample of 1500 ordinary citi-zens in Shanghai was randomly selected and a self-administered questionnaire survey was conducted anonymously to investigate their cognition and willingness to living organ donation.Results:The citizens' awareness rate of liv-ing organs was not high;citizens obtained the information mainly through the network,television,newspapers and other mainstream media;citizens' s willingness rate of living organ donation was 14.6％,and the willingness wasin-fluenced by various factors.Conclusion:To promote citizens' correct understanding of living organ donation re-quires various efforts of governments,societies,families,hospitals and schools.
