Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP)occurs in the premature infant especially very low birth weight infants.It is an important reason which cause vision loss in children.The main pathological feature of ROP is retinal neovascularization.Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) play a vital role in neovascularization by controlling the proliferation of vascular endothelial cells.In recent years many clinical studies have shown that intravitreal injection of anti-VEGF and increasing serum IGF-1 level of premature infants in early time is an effective method to prevent ROP.This article,according to the background of domestic and foreign relevant researches,reviews roles of VEGF and IGF-1 in ROP.

The treatment for endometrial cancer refers to surgery,radiation and chemotherapy.Some disputable issues in the treatment are existing.Based on the recent clinical trial results,the choice of surgical modality,the role of lymphadenectomy,radiation and chemotherapy are present and discussed in this article.

This paper reports the treatment of 65 cases with Verruca Acuminate, 35 cases with the fulguration while 30 cases with the combined fulguration with injection poly i:c and both were compared. The results showed that the cure rate of the fulguration group was 68.6%, and that of the combined therapy group was 96,5%. The cure rate of the latter group revealed higher (P

In recent years, many surgical innovations have been made from cervical cancer, such as trachelectomy, laparoscopic radical hysterectomy and surgery for advanced or recurrent cervical cancer, etc. The surgical innovations improve treatment effects, as well as postoperative quality of life.

Irreversible electroporation (IRE) is a nontemperature based novel ablation therapy in which short highvoltage pulses are applied to treat tissues to permeabilize the cell membrane irreversibly and thus lead to cell apoptosis.Because it is characterized as non-thermal,IRE can reduce the risk of thermal damage to vital organs and structures so that it is more feasible for the treatment of unresectable pancreatic cancer and thus provide an ideal alternative to other thermal treatment modalities.This review aims to analyze current literature of IRE and to discuss the new progress of the application of IRE in the management of locally advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

Objective To evaluate the detection rate of congenital heart defect (CHD) during the first trimester screening for chromosomal abnormalities,the role of ultrasound soft markers including increased nuchal translucency (NT),tricuspid regurgitation (TR) and abnormal ductus venosus (DV) flow in the screening for cardiac anomalies was also investigated.Methods From January 2009 to January 2012,4 673 fetuses were scanned at 11-14 weeks at Department of Fetal Medicine,the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University.The ultrasound findings and follow up outcomes were recorded,False-positive rate of different first-trimester ultrasound markers for the detection of CHD was calculated,sensitivity of the markers for all major CHD was calculated as well.Results There was a significant association between major CHD and first trimester ultrasound markers.(1) Overall findings:among the 4 673 fetuses,31 fetuses were diagnosed CHD prenatally,17,12 and 2 of which were detected in the first,second and third trimester,respectively.In 22 of the 31 CHD cases,invasive procedure was performed,fetal karyotype was abnormal in 12 cases,including triosmy 21 (5 cases),trisomy 18 (2 cases),trisomy 13 (2 cases),Turner syndrome (2 cases) and pericentric inversion of chromosome 9 (1 cases).(2) NT measurement and prenatal detected CHD:in 4 673 cases,NT measurement between 95th-99th percentile were present in 206 (4.41％),5 cases were diagnosed CHD prenatally,in 4 of 5 cases were detected in first trimester; NT measurement ＜ 95th percentile were present in 4 430(94.80％),16 cases were diagnosed CHD prenatally,in 5 of 16 cases were detected in first trimester; NT measurement ＞ 99th percentile (＞ 3.5 mm) were present in 37 (0.79％,37/4 673),10 cases were diagnosed CHD prenatally,in 8 of 10 cases were detected in first trimester.(3) TR and inverted a-wave at the DV and prenatal detected CHD:among 4 673 cases,TR or inverted a-wave at the DV were present in 51 (1.09％),98 (2.10％) respectively.TR was present in 8 of 31 CHD cases,inverted a-wave at the DV was present in 7 of 31 CHD cases.(4)Sensitivity of different first trimester ultrasound markers for detection of major CHD cases:in 31 CHD cases diagnosed prenatally,23 eased were defined as major CHD.Sensitivity of at least one of the ultrasound narkers,NT measurement between 95th-99th percentile,＞ 99th percentile(＞ 3.5 mm),TR or inverted a-wave at the DV for detection of major CHD eases was 74％ (17/23),22％ (5/23),39％ (9/23),35％ (8/23),30％ (7/23),respectively.(5) Specificity of different first trimester ultrasound markers for detection of CHD cases:specificity of NT measurement between 95th-99th percentile,＞ 99th percentile(＞ 3.5 mm),TR or inverted a-wave at the DV for detection of major CHD cases was 4.30％ (201/4 673),0.58％ (27/4 673),0.92％ (43/4 673),1.94％ (91/4 673).Conclusions Routine first trimester soft markers for chromosomal abnormalities screening combined with cardiac assessment can detect quite a number of major heart defects.Increased NT,TR and abnormal DV flow can be important indicators for echocardiography,which is favorable to early prenatal diagnosis of CHD.

Despite multimodel chemotherapy after successful surgical cytoreduction for ovarian cancer,disease recurrence continues to be problematic.Therefore,exploring new treatment strategy has already become urgent matter of the moment. Biological targeted therapies have been studied to overcome chemotherapy resistance.The most promising one at this time is bevacizumab.Results from phase Ⅱ and phase Ⅲ trials were excited.Deeper understanding of biologic pathway in ovarian cancer,and more biologic targets undergoing clinical trial will develop a new world for the treatment of ovarian cancer.

In order to explore the relationship between xenograft rejection and cytokines, the proliferative responses and cytokine contents from human lymphocyte were detected in porcinehuman mixed lymphocyte culture (MLC) and compared with human allo-MLC. The results showed that the proliferative responses in the former was equal to or stronger than that in the latter, and the kinetics of IL-2 and IFN-Y in both supernatants were similar but the peak of IL-4 from the former was higher than that from the latter (P<0.05). This suggests that cytokines are likely to play roles in porcine-human MLC.

Objective To observe the protective effect of grape seed proanthocyanidin extract ( GSPE) on learning disabilities after radiation injury brain in rats.Methods 120 male Wistar rats were divided into control group,model group,high and low dose GSPE groups.The radiation injury brain models were established using a method of linear accelerator irradiation in 22 Gy.The morphological changes of neu-rons in hippocampus were observed with HE staining; the expression of phosphorylated extracellular signal regulated kinase 1/2 ( ERK1/2) and growth associated protein-43( GAP-43) were detected by immunohisto-chemistry;the contents of malonalde hyde(MDA) and superoxide dismutase(SOD) were measured respec-tively by thiobarbituric acid( TBA) and xanthine oxidation( XTO) methods;the learning ability was assessed with shuttle box.Results Compared with the model group,the GSPE groups showed a decreased degree of nerve cell morphological injury; and increased ERK1/2 activities((13.20±1.45)/view,(27.40±2.52)/view,(19.80±1.30)/view),GAP-43 expression level((52.93±2.07)/view,(66.50±0.77)/view,(73.05± 2.40)/view) and SOD activities((79.82±5.26) U/mg,(76.20±6.86) U/mg,(80.12±5.76) U/mg)(P<0.05);and decreased the contents of MDA((71.62±1.88) μmol/g,(76.41±1.94) μmol/g,(72.32±1.98)μmol/g)(P<0.05).Shuttle box testing showed that the active avoidance reaction rate was increased(7 d:(56.23±2.56)%;14 d:(44.66±2.79)%;28 d:(50.40±2.16)%)(P<0.05)and passive avoidance latency was shorted(7 d:(34.11±1.57)s;14 d:(45.52±1.88)s;28 d:( 39.52±1.79)s)(P<0.05) in GSPE groups. The above mentioned changes were more significant in high dose of GSPE(P<0.05) .Conclusion GSPE has protective effect on learning disabilities of radiation injuries brain,which is related to enhance ERK1/2 activ-ity and the expression of GAP-43.
