Objective To study the occurrence of BRCA1 MSI in endometrial cancer and its relationship with clinic pathologic features; to explore the correlation between MSI and protein expression in BRCA1 gene. Methods Application of PCR-SSCP and DNA sequence analysis method was used to study D17S579 and D17S1349 in 49 sporadic endometrial cancer tissues, 20 cases with endometrial atypical hyperplasia and 28 cases with normal endometrial tissues. Results In the total samples of D17S579 and D17S1349, the three groups were significantly different: 34.69%(17/49) in the endometrial cancer group, 10%(2/20) in the endometrial atypical hyperplasia group and 7.14%(2/28) in the normal endometrium group (χ2= 11.208, P = 0.004). BRCA1 MSI positive rate related to the pathology grade and clinical stage, but no relationship was found in muscular infiltration depth, lymph node metastasis and histopathology types. In the endometrial cancer group, BRCA1 MSI positive rate and BRCA1 protein expression were in moderate correlated negatively (r = -0.779, P = 0.000). Conclusion BRCA1 MSI might play a role in the development of endometrial cancer, and low expression of BRCA1 protein. BRCA1 MSI might be associated with pathology grade and clinical stages in EC.

Objective To find out the brain function characters of visual information integration and visual working memory with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) children. Methods 1∶ 1 case-control study was used on the study. 45 ADHD children who met DSM-IV criteria were recruited as case group,45 normal children from primary school were chosen as control group. Two groups children received the test of contour-integration,positional noise, temporal order memory, pattern memory. Results The ADHD double eyes' contour integration ( ( 1.62 ± 0. 81 ), ( 1.69 ± 0.87 ) ) were significantly lower than the control group' ( (2.02 ± 1.10), ( 1.98 ±0.81 )). There was no significant difference of double eyes' positional noise between case group( (1.98 ±0.89 ), ( 2.20 ± 1.10 ) ) and the control group ( ( 2.20 ± 0. 97 ), ( 2.30 ± 0. 83 ) ). The temporal order memory,pattern memory ( ( 1.89 ± 1.30), ( 1.18 ± 0.44) ) showed significantly lower in case group(P< 0.05 ) than that in control group ( ( 2.98 ± 1.25 ), ( 1. 44 ± 0. 66) ). Conclusion Results indicate that children with ADHD have deficiency in visual perception and the ability of visual information integration, and have significantly deficiency in visual working memory and executive-function.
