Objective Castleman′s disease ( CD) is a rare lymphoproliferative disorder, which has a very high misdiagnosis rate according to its lack of clinical and imaging specificity.The study was to improve the recognition, diagnosis and management of this disease by analyzing the clinicopathological characteristics and concluding diagnosis and treatment as well as literature review. Methods Retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data of 31 CD patients (13 males and 18 females) who were hospitalized in the Affiliated Drum Tower Hosipital to Medical college of Nanjing University from January 2006 to Feburary 2014.Their mean age was (47.4 ±13.3) years.There were 24 cases with unicentric Castleman′s disease (UCD) and 7 cases with multicentric Castleman′s disease ( MCD) .UCD tended to be present in the form of an enlarged and painless mass which generally remained asymptomatic by accidental touch or regular physical examination.MCD was usually associated with constitutional symptoms.All the 24 patients with UCD underwent complete surgical resection.7 patients with MCD received different treatment methods, such as surgical resection, ste-riod and rituximab in combination with chemotherapy ( CHOP) . Results Postoperative pathology confirmed 23 cases were hyaline vascular type while 8 were plasma cell type.25 cases had been followed up (46.3 ±32.3) months after operation, among which 1 UCD case died of pancreatic head carcinoma 13 months after operation, 1 case with MCD plus pemphigus died 2 months after surgical resection of retroperitoneal lymphadenectasis, another MCD case died in 1 month without any treatment.The remaining 22 cases were alive. Conclusion CD is lack of clinical specificity and its diagnosis should be made by pathology.Each subtype differ greatly in prognosis, therefore different treatments should be taken after definitive subtype diagnosis.

Purpose: To explore the therapeutic method for lameness caused by lumbar spinal stenosis. Methods: 28 cases of the patients with lameness were treated by puncturing Dachangshu (BL 25), Weizhong (BL 40), Chengshan (BL 57) and Kunlun (BL 60) and simultaneously another 26 cases were treated with routine method for control study. Results:After the treatments for four weeks, the scores of the symptoms in the two groups were remarkably elevated. In the acupuncture treatment, the results showed remarkable effect in 4 cases, effect in 21 cases. In the routine treatment, the results showed remarkable effect in 4 cases and effect in 8 cases. Conclusion: acupuncture treatment is better than the routine conventional treatment for lameness caused by lumbar spinal stenosis.

In order to investigate if there exists interaction between mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) protein, and how the interaction regulates tumor necrosis factor-? (TNF-?) transcription activity, the human p38 and extracellular-signal regulated protein kinase 2 (ERK2) genes were amplified from human flag-p38 and flag-ERK2 by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and cloned into pcDNA3-HA. Protein expression of the plasmids was examined by Western blotting. Co-immunoprecipitation was used to identify if there exists interaction between MAPK and STAT3 proteins. If the interaction was approved to be true, report gene system was applied to find how the interaction affect transcriptional expression of TNF-?. After STAT3 pathway was inhibited by RNA interfering, the action on TNF-? activity was determined. The results of DNA sequencing and enzyme digestion showed that the cloned p38 and ERK2 genes were correct, to be 1 080 bp or so. p38 and ERK2 proteins were expressed in 293T cell to be approximately 40 ku. Co-immunoprecipitation data showed that p38 and ERK2 proteins integrated with STAT3 protein in vivo. TNF-? reporter gene activity results found that protein complex of p38-STAT3 and ERK2-STAT3 coordinately increased TNF-? activity. After STAT3 was interfered, the TNF-? activity markedly decreased. These data indicated that there exists interaction between p38 and STAT3 protein, ERK2 and STAT3 protein. The complex of the proteins can coordinately regulate TNF-? expression. After interfereing STAT3 pathway, the coordinated action on TNF-? transcription activity might be obviously reduced.

Objective To construct,express,purify and identify the gene encodi ng major outer membrane protein of Neisseria gonorrhoeae (Porin I, or PI). Metho ds The gene encoding for PI of N.gonorrhoeae was amplified by PCR and cloned int o expression plasmid pGEX-4T-2 to form pGEX-4T-2/PI recombinants. A high lev el expression of GST-PI fusion protein was obtained in GST gene fusion system (GST:glutathione S transferase). The analysis indicated that the expressed pr otein was present predominantly in the insoluble form. Therefore, the induced pr otein was purified by SDS-PAGE, and bands corresponding to polypeptides of GST-PI fusion protein were excised and subjected to electroelution. A dot immunoch romatographic assay was employed to demonstrate whether the purified protein was gonococcal PI specific. Results The pGEX-4T-2/PI expression recombinants were constructed,expressed,purified and identified successfully. SDS-PAGE analysis and dot immunochromatographic assay suggested that the recombinant GST-PI fusio n protein was a 60 000 molecular weight protein andidentical in size to native PI and reacted with anti-PI monoclonal antibody. Conclusion Our results may lead to a potentiality for further study of diagnosti c kits and vaccine for Neisseria gonorrhoeae.

The monitoring of pregnant women is very important. It plays an important role in reducing fetal mortality, ensuring the safety of perinatal mother and fetus, preventing premature delivery and pregnancy accidents. At present, regular examination is the mainstream method for pregnant women's monitoring, but the means of examination out of hospital is scarce, and the equipment of hospital monitoring is expensive and the operation is complex. Using intelligent information technology (such as machine learning algorithm) can analyze the physiological signals of pregnant women, so as to realize the early detection and accident warning for mother and fetus, and achieve the purpose of high-quality monitoring out of hospital. However, at present, there are not enough public research reports related to the intelligent processing methods of out-of-hospital monitoring for pregnant women, so this paper takes the out-of-hospital monitoring for pregnant women as the research background, summarizes the public research reports of intelligent processing methods, analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of the existing research methods, points out the possible problems, and expounds the future development trend, which could provide reference for future related researches.

Objective:To establish the first Mini-Formative Evaluation of Radiation Oncology (Mini-FERO) scale in China and evaluate its preliminary application value in the standardized training for radiation oncology resident physicians.Methods:Based on the educational curriculum and examination requirements for the standardized training for radiation oncology resident physicians, as well as the standardized Mini-Clinical Evaluation Exercise (Mini-CEX) scale commonly used in clinical practice, the Mini-Formative Evaluation of Radiation Oncology (Mini-FERO) scale was developed to facilitate the standardized training for resident physicians in the field of radiation oncology. In this prospective study, a randomization method using a random number table was employed to select a cohort of 26 resident physicians who completed their rotations in Department of Radiation Oncology at the Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from March 1, 2021 to December 31, 2021. The Mini-FERO scale was administered in the initial, middle, and final stages during the rotation period. The differences in evaluation scores before and after the assessments were analyzed by paired t-test. Furthermore, participating resident physicians and supervising teachers provided satisfaction ratings, and a comprehensive evaluation of the Mini-FERO scale was conducted. Results:The average scores of the three examinations of 26 resident physicians demonstrated a successive improvement, with individual performance in each assessed category also showing progressive enhancement. The second evaluation exhibited a more pronounced score increase compared to the first evaluation, with a mean improvement of (1.43±1.02) points ( t=7.13, P<0.001); while the third evaluation had a mean improvement of (0.41±0.50) points ( t=4.07, P<0.001) compaired to the second evaluation, with a mean difference of (1.02±1.15) points between the two ( t=4.53, P<0.001). The average time required for the assessments was (34.31±24.46) min. Overall satisfaction ratings from the evaluated resident physicians for the Mini-FERO scale were (8.42±0.85) points, and supervising teachers reported an overall satisfaction rating of (8.45±0.85) points. The satisfaction rate was 96% (25/26). Conclusions:In this study, the Mini-FERO scale was successfully developed and validated in the context of clinical teaching practice for radiation oncology resident physicians. The Mini-FERO scale is proven to be a feasible tool for assessing the gradual improvement of resident physicians throughout their learning process in the field of radiation oncology. Importantly, it offers the advantages of short assessment time, thereby avoiding additional burden on supervising teachers. The adoption of the Mini-FERO scale addresses current limitations of lacking of formative evaluation in the standardized training for radiation oncology resident physicians.
