Objective To research the applications of resting-state functional MRI in conjunction with voxel-based morphometry on cerebral functions and structures in patients with schizophrenia. Methods Thirty-two patients with schizophrenia and 32 healthy people underwent resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging (Rs-fMRI)and sagittal scanning T1WI with 3D FFE Pulse Sequence. Rest1.8 software was applied to calculate the differences of amplitude of standardized low-frequency fluctuation(ALFF)between the two groups,then the voxel-based morphometry(VBM)data of abnormal brain regions were evaluated to compare the differences of grey matter intensity. Finally,combining with ALEF and VBM,we explored the changes of cerebral functions and structures. Results As compared to the control group ,the ALFF-elevated regions were the right putamen ,the left orbital frontal cortex extending to the left putamen and left dorsal-lateral superior frontal gyrus;the ALFF-decreased regions were the right inferior tempotalgyrus,the left posterior cingulated gyrus and the left angular gyrus(P<0.05). No elevated regions of grey matter intensity were found in the patient group. Conclusions Extensive abnormal active regions of the brain under resting state could be found in patients with schizophrenia ,the grey matter intensity of abnormal regions also decreased generally. They are in accordance with the glutamate-hypothesis of schizophrenia ,which involves extensive impairments of neurons ,disorders of neurotransmitter′s circulations and balances.

Objective To compare the efficacy and adverse reactions of intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and conventional pelvic field radiation therapy for middle and advanced cervical cancer. Methods A total of 144 patients with stageⅡB-ⅢB cervical cancer from October 2007 to September 2012 were divided into IMRT group (72 cases), and routine radiotherapy group (72 cases) by using random number table method. The IMRT group was exposed to the 6 MV-X line 7 field, a dose of 46-50 Gy for planning target volume (PTV), 54-60 Gy for gross tumor volume (GTVnd) simultaneously integrated boosted, in 25-28 fractions. The central block of lead 4 cm was changed to 4 fields irradiation, adding to 46-54 Gy for the conventional group after 30-40 Gy of the whole pelvic field. The total dose for the two groups of patients was 30-45 Gy, after completed 30 Gy in vitro exposure, to the cavity irradiation, 5-7 Gy/fraction, and synchronous cisplatin (DDP) sensitization chemotherapy was done synchronously. Results The recent complete remission, partial remission, overall survival ratio of two groups were compared respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant (P > 0.05). The difference in 1 year survival rate of IMRT group and routine radiotherapy group was not statistically significant (χ2= 1.455, P> 0.05). The difference in 3 and 5 year survival rate was statistically significant [76.4 % (55/72) vs. 59.7 % (43/72); 72.2 % (52/72) vs. 55.6 %(40/72), P< 0.05]. Acute radiotherapy major adverse reactions included the digestive system, urinary system, skin response and haematological toxicity (bone marrow suppression). The incidence and degree of skin response in IMRT group was lower than that in routine radiotherapy group (P<0.05). The adverse effects of late radiotherapy were mainly rectal, bladder, skin response and hematological toxicity (bone marrow suppression). The incidence rectal and skin response in IMRT group was lower than that in routine radiotherapy group (P< 0.05). Conclusion The IMRT can improve the survival rate of advanced cervical cancer patients for 3-5 years, reduce the adverse effects of acute and terminal radiotherapy, and improve the quality of life.

Objective :
To study the damage effect of sunlight ultraviolet exposure on skin.
Methods :
No exposure group, low exposure group and high exposure group were set up with 10 mice in each. The exposure doses of sunlight ultraviolet were 0, 10 J/cm2 and 20 J/cm2, respectively. The skin of mice was irradiated by a sunlight ultraviolet simulator for 5 days a week, 13 weeks. At the end of the experiment, the skin appearance of mice was examined; the skin moisture, oil content, texture density, hydroxyproline ( HYP ), hyaluronic acid (HA), malondialdehyde ( MDA ), glutathione ( GSH ) and superoxide dismutase ( SOD ) activities were detected; and the skin tissue morphology, collagen fiber morphology and elastic fiber morphology were observed.
Results :
The skin appearance of mice in the no exposure group was normal; in the low exposure group, only one mouse had mild skin desquamation; in the high exposure group, the skin was loose and wrinkled, dry and desquamated, local thickening and erythema formation. Compared with the no exposure group, the contents of skin moisture, HYP, HA and SOD activity were lower, texture density, MDA content, morphological scores of skin tissue, collagen fiber tissue and elastic fiber tissue were higher in the high exposure group ( all P<0.05 ). Compared with the low exposure group, the HA content and SOD activity were lower, the skin texture density, MDA content, and histomorphological scores of skin tissue and collagen fibers were higher in the high exposure group ( all P<0.05 ).
Conclusion
Exposure to 20 J/cm2 sunlight ultraviolet can significantly lead to abnormal skin appearance and function in mice.
