Objective To investigate iron deposition level in patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease and its correlation with cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) imaging markers.Methods A total of 74 patients with first-ever transient ischemic attack (TIA) (median age:69 years old;30 males,44 females) and 77 patients with positive ischemic stroke history (median age:72 years old;43 males,34 females) were studied retrospectively.On phase image of susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI),regions of interest (ROIs) were manually drawn at the bilateral head of the caudate nucleus (CN),lenticular nucleus (LN),thalamus (TH),frontal white matter (FWM),and occipital white matter (OWM).The correlation between iron deposition level and the clinical and imaging variables was also investigated.Results Iron deposition level at LN was significantly higher in patients with previous stroke history (P < 0.05).It was linearly correlated with the presence and number of cerebral microbleed (CMB) but not with white matter hyperintensity (WMH) and lacunar infarct.Conclusions Ischemia may cause iron deposition elevation at basal ganglia,and LN may be more susceptible to ischemia-induced alteration.CMB may be an independent risk factor for higher iron deposition.

Objective CA125 has been proved to be closely related to peritoneal metastasis of gastric cancer.This study aimed to screen and identify a novel ssDNA aptamer targeting the extracellular domain of Mucin16. Methods Using capillary elec-trophoresis, we screened the aptamers targeting the synthetic peptide of the extracellular domain of Mucin16 and quantitatively deter-mined the Kd value of each cycle and the affinity of the aptamers for the synthetic peptide by CE-SELEX.Then we evaluated the ability of the obtained aptamers to target cancer cells using confocal laser imaging. Results After five cycles of screening, sequencing, af-finity determination, we obtained an ssDNA aptamer targeting the extracellular domain of Mucin16, with a Kd value of 122.7 nm and visible green fluorescent signals on the cell membrane of the human ovarian cancer cell line expressing Mucin16, but not on that of the normal hepatocytes not expressing Mucin16.This confirmed the binding ability of the aptamer to the extracellular domain of Mucin16. Conclusion A novel aptamer targeting the synthetic peptide of the extracellular domain of Mucin16 was successfully obtained by capil-lary electrophoresis, which could be used as a new agent in the diagnosis and treatment of peritoneal metastasis of gastric cancer.

For the issues existed in training of general practitioners, with characteristics of community health-care service centers (CHS) and large-scale urban hospitals, a training model of exchange physicians between hospitals and CHSs was formulated. After three-month practice, a general practitioner-specialist technical cooperation group was established. The new model not only promoted construction of a two-way referral system, but also created environmental condition for training community physicians.

Objective To investigate the pathological manifestations of acute?stage radioactive myocardial damage and related mechanisms using an experimental animal model. Methods A total of 12 adult male Sprague?Dawley rats were randomly divided into control group and radiation group. In the radiation group, the model of radiation?induced myocardial damage was established by the irradiation of the anterior myocardial territory with 6?MV X?ray at a single dose of 20 Gy, and at 14 days after irradiation, HE staining was used to observe the morphological changes of cardiomyocytes and intercellular matrix, and Masson staining was used to observe the distribution of collagen fibers. The collagen volume fraction ( CVF) was used for semi?quantitative analysis. ELISA was used to measure the activity of total superoxide dismutase ( T?SOD) and the concentration of malondialdehyde ( MDA ) , and Western blot was used to measure the expression of the fibrosis marker protein collagen type I ( COL?1 ) and the endoplasmic reticulum stress?related proteins GRP78 and CHOP. The t?test, t ’?test, or nonparametric rank sum test was used for comparison between groups. Results At 14 days after local irradiation of the heart, the radiation group had disordered arrangement of cardiomyocytes, marked edema, rupture of some cardiomyocytes, mild karyopyknosis in cardiomyocytes, and infiltration of inflammatory cells in the myocardial interstitium, compared with the control group. Collagen fibers in the myocardial tissue were mainly distributed in the perivascular area and cardiomyocyte interstitium. The radiation group had a significantly higher CVF than the control group ( 11?35% vs. 5?23%, P=0?000 ) and a significant increase in the expression of COL?1 compared with the control group ( P=0?000) . The radiation group had significant increases in the activity of T?SOD and the concentration of MDA in the myocardial tissue compared with the control group ( T?SOD:156?61 U/mgprot vs. 137?06 U/mgprot, P= 0?042;MDA:2?36 nmol/mgprot vs. 1?31 U/mgprot, P=0?007) . Compared with the control group, the radiation group showed significant increases in the expression of endoplasmic reticulum stress?related proteins GRP 7 8 and CHOP ( P= 0?037 and 0?009 ) . Conclusions The pathological manifestations of acute?stage myocardial damage include degeneration of cardiomyocytes, inflammatory exudation in the interstitium, and deposition of collagen in the perivascular area and myocardial interstitium. Myocardial fibrosis can be observed in the acute stage of radiation?induced myocardial damage, and the mechanism may be related to oxidative stress and endoplasmic reticulum stress induced by radioactive rays.

ObjectiveTo evaluate correlation factors of cervical lymph nodes metastasis in thoracic esophageal carcinoma.MethodsLocal-regional metastasis of lymph node for 126 cases with esophageal squamous cell cancer after surgery from 2004 to 2009 were reviewed.Risk factors of cervical lymph nodes metastasis were examined by multiple Logistic regression analysis.ResultsIn 126 cases,supraclavicular lymph node metastasis rate was 43.7% (55/126).By logistic regression,none of the primary site,T stage,N stage,histological grade,lymph node metastasis rate,lymph node metastasis degree and number of lymph nodes metastatic field was not the high risk of cervical lymph nodes metastasis.In addition,multivariate analysis found that lymph node metastasis in mediastinum region 1 was high risk factor for lymph node metastasis of region 1 ( x2 =12.14,9.27,P =0.000,0.002),lymph node metastasis in region Ⅲ and region 2 were high risk factors for lymph node metastasis of region Ⅱa ( x2 =14.56,8.27,8.02,3.93,P =0.000,0.004,0.005,0.047 ).ConclusionMediastinal para-recurrent nerve lymph node metastasis is a significant predictor for cervical lymph nodes metastasis.

Objective To evaluate the effect of TGF-β1 and IL-1β expression in serum on acute radiation-induced heart disease (RIHD) in patients with thoracic tumors.Methods Three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT) or intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) was delivered at 1.8-2.0 Gy,5 times per week to a total dose of 50-66 Gy to 44 patients with lung cancer and 10 patients with esophagus cancer.The target and organs at risk dose distribution were analyzed by 3-dimensiond treatment planning system.The expressions of TGF-β1 and IL-1β in serum were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay before and at the end of the irradiation.The cardiac injury was evaluated by detecting the cmyocardium creatase,cardiac troponin I (cTnI),electrocardiogram and cardiac function before and at the end of the irradiation within 90 d.The acute RIHD was evaluated by the Common Terminology Criteria V 3.0 (NCI-CTCAE 3.0).The expressions of TGF-β1 and IL-1β in the serum of RIHD patients with thoracic tumors were analyzed.Results The expression of TGF-β1 in serum was (888.4 ± 41.1) μg/L before the irradiation and approached to (926.1 ± 23.1) μg/L at the end of the radiotherapy.The expression level of TGF-β1 in the serum of acute RIDH group was (900.6 ± 34.5) μg/L,higher than that of normal group [(865.7 ±47.0) μg/L,t =-2.646,P <0.05)].The acute RIDH was correlated with the expression level of TGF-β1 before irradiation and the difference before and at the end of irradiation (r =0.378,0.311,P <0.05).The IL-1β expression had no significant difference before and after irradiation.The expression of TGF-β1 in serum before and at the end of irradiation had positive correlation with the expression of IL-1β at the end of the irradiation (r =0.416,0.389,P < 0.05).Conclusions The expression of TGF-β1 in the serum of patients with thoracic tumor increases after irradiation and correlated with the acute RIHD,but the expression of IL-1β in serum has no relationship with RIHD.TGF-β1 could induce the expression of IL-1β at the end of the irradiation.
