Objective The purpose of this study was to determine the indication,methods,safety and efficacy of hepatic resection for metastatic carcinoma of the liver. Methods Sixty-nine consecutive hepatic resections in 67 patients with secondary carcinoma of the liver were reviewed. Results One case died and operative mortality rate was 1.5 %.Median follow-up was 5 years, ranging from 1 to 7 years. The 1、3、5-year survival rates for all patients were 28.36%、 19.40% 、and 11.94% respectively. The survival rate of over 5-years in the hepatic resection for metastatic colorectal carcinoma was 21.43%. Conclusions Surgical resection of metastatic disease to liver is not only safe but also curative. We recommend that for any patient with metastatic carcinoma of the liver, an anatomic distribution of tumors to preserve hepatic function after resection and fitness to withstand the procedure should be considered for resection.

OBJECTIVE:To optimize the parameters of the extraction and purification technologies of total flavonoids from Di-ospyros kaki Thunb. leaves,and then to compare the contents of flavonoids in fresh and dried D. kaki Thunb. leaves. METHODS:Taking the yield of total flavonoids as the investigated index,the influences of liquid-solid ratio,the volume fraction of ethanol and ultrasonic extraction time on the extraction effect were discussed by single-factor and orthogonal test. With the purity of total flavo-noids as the investigated index,the purification effects of such three kinds of methods as ethyl acetate extraction method,alcohol deposition method and macroreticular resin purification method combined with petroleum ether degreasing on the extracted solution were compared. The optimal extraction technology was adopted to extract the total flavonoids from fresh and dried D. kaki Thunb. leaves and their contents were compared. RESULTS:The optimal extraction technology was as follows as liquid-solid ratio of 25∶1 (ml/g),volume fraction of ethanol of 70%,ultrasonic extraction time of 30 min,extraction temperature of 30 ℃. The results of the verification tests showed the average content of total flavonoids was 1.75%(RSD=2.00%,n=3). The total flavonoids in the extracted solution purified by the above-mentioned three purification methods had a purity of 24.92%,15.94% and 35.52% respec-tively,in which the macroreticular resin purification method with petroleum ether degreasing combined with AB-8 resin purification was optimal. The content of flavonoids in fresh D. kaki Thunb. leaves(1.75%) was about twice as much as that in dried leaves (0.87%). CONCLUSIONS:The optimal extraction and purification technologies are simple with good effect,and suitable for large-scale production. Fresh D. kaki Thunb. leaves should be used as raw materials for extracting flavonoids.

Comprehensive treatment of gastric cancer is mainly based on the pathological staging. The T stage mainly depends on the accurate determination of the depth of the tumor invasion. The accurate T stage should be standardized pathological examination and continuous sectioning. N stage may be influenced by the number of lymph node examined. Insufficient lymph node examined may lead to stage migration. Therefore, standardizing lymph node dissection and lymph node harvest after surgery is important. M stage is mainly to improve the detection rate of peritoneal lavage cytology (CY), identify high risk factors for peritoneal metastasis, and optimize the prediction of peritoneal metastasis molecular markers, as a complementary methods of clinical examination. Currently, the quality of standardized pathological diagnosis of gastric cancer in China still needs to be improved. This article mainly elucidates the related studies and clinical experience of our center on how to do better in the optimization of gastric cancer TNM staging and pathological quality control.

With the advent of an aging society,Alzheimer's disease(AD)has gradually become a major ailment affecting the elderly.AD is a neurodegenerative disorder associated with cognitive impairments.In AD patients,brain network connections are disrupted,and their topological properties are also affected,leading to the disintegration of anatomical and functional connections.Anatomical connections can be tracked and evaluated using structural magnetic imaging(MRI)and diffusion tensor imaging(DTI),while functional connections are detected through functional MRI to assess their connectivity status.This review incorporates the findings of previous scholars and summarizes the current research of AD.It mainly discusses the imaging characteristics of large-scale brain network changes in AD patients,so as to provide researchers with scientific and objective imaging markers for AD prediction and early diagnosis,as well as future research.

OBJECTIVETo investigate changes in clinicopathological features and survival of patients with gastrectomy at a single institution in China.

METHODSFrom January 1990 to December 2009, clinicopathological data of 2518 cases of gastric cancer patients who underwent surgical resection in the Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center were analyzed retrospectively. The overall survival rate was determined using Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test was used to determine significance. The prognosis was analyzed using univariate analysis and multivariate analysis by Cox proportional hazards model. Clinical features, pathological findings and survival differences were compared in this cohort between two consecutive periods(1990-1999 and 2000-2009).

RESULTSThe 5-year survival rates for the whole cohort and those undergoing radical resection was 48.1% and 53.7%, respectively. In the first period, the 5-year survival rate for the whole cohort and for patients undergoing radical resection was 40.1% and 45.7%. In the second period, the 5-year survival rates for whole cohort and for patients undergoing radical resection was 51.5% and 57.1%, respectively. For those who underwent radical resection, the mean number of lymph node dissection was significantly higher in the recent period (20.1±8.3 vs. 9.5±6.0, P<0.01). On multivariate analysis by means of the Cox proportional hazard model, age, location, tumor size, histological type, radical resection, lymphatic/venous invasion, depth of invasion, nodal status, number of retrieved lymph nodes, and treatment period were independent factors (P<0.05). The constitution, number of retrieved lymph nodes, and survival rate were all improved between the two intervals (P<0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe overall survival rate has gradually increased in gastric cancer patients over the past 20 years.
