Objective To investigate the relationship between the sigmoid colon propagating contractions and the gut hormones cholecystokinin(CCK)and motilin(MTL)in the patients with irritable bowel syndrome(IBS),and to reveal the gut hormones' modulation to the sigmoid colon motility.Methods Twenty diarrea-predominent IBS patients(D-IBS),and sex/age matched 20 constipation-predominent IBS patients(C-IBS)and 15 healthy volunteers were enrolled in the study.From June 2005 to Mar.2006,the high amplitude propagating waves and loger time of the sigmoid colon was measured by means of a liquid-perfused capillary tube connected to a computer.Meanwhile,the concentrations of CCK,MTL of blood plasma and sigmoid colon mucosa were tested by means of immunoassay technology.Results The D-IBS group had higher amplitude of the sigmoid colon propagating waves and their time percentage than that of the C-IBS group and the control group(P

Objective To evaluate the role of radiotherapy in the management of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans. Methods Between 1995 and 1999, 18 patients with pathologically confirmed dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans were retrospectively analyzed. Nine patients were referred to our hospital for primary treatment and the remaining 9 patients came with recurrent disease. Fifteen of 18 patients received surgery followed by radiotherapy. Among them, 14 patients underwent complete resection and 1 partial resection. Majority of patients received 50～60 ?Gy. One patient received 37.5 ?Gy because he refrained from further treatment. Two patients received 52 ?Gy and 50 ?Gy due to unresectable extensive lesion. One of 18 patients was treated by total resection alone.Results The median of follow up time was 26 months with a range of 0.5～5 years. Sixteen patients (8.9%) are disease free. One patient developed local recurrence and one died of malignant progression. These two patients were treated with radiotherapy alone or surgery only. The local control rates were 100% (15/15) for patients who were treated with surgery and radiotherapy. Conclusions Postoperative radiotherapy is able to decrease the local recurrence rate in dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans.

Objective To investigate the insertion/deletion(I/D) polymorphism of ACE gene in uncompen-sated hepatocirrhosis with hepatorenal syndrome(HRS). Methods ACE I/D polymorphism was detected by poly-merase chain reaction amplification of DNA fragment in 96 cases of uncompensated bepatocirrhnsis with HRS, every group as controls were involved in this study. At the same time,GPT,GOT,sarum creatinine(SCr), blood urea nitro-gen(BUN) and glomerular filtration rate(GFR) of every case were measured and the difference of these targets among different genotypes were compared. Results There was no significant difference for every genotype and allele fre-quency between the HRS group and every group as controls(P >0.05). The I allele frequencies were higher than the one of D allele for every groups except other liver disease group(P < 0.01). But in the every group as controls, there was no significant difference for the genotype frequency among three groups and in the HRS group, the Ⅱ genotype frequency was higher than the one of ID and DD(P < 0.05). SCr etc. of the Ⅱ genotype were higher than the one of ID and DD(P<0.05) and GFR of the Ⅱ genotype was lower than the one of ID and DD in the HRS group(P<0.05). Conclusion There was relationship between ACE gene polymorphism and the incidence of uncompensated bepatocirrhosis with HRS.

Objective To evaluate the possible roles of IL-4,IL-18 in hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection.Methods Serum IL-4,IL-18 level was measured using ELISA,and serum HBV-DNA content was detected by FQ-PCR.Results There was significant in serum IL-4,IL-18 level between the fulminant hepatitis patients and chronic hepatitis patients or normal controls (P

A small fraction of tumor stem cells exist in glioma and play a key role in the tumorigenesis and propagation of glioma.They have a close relationship with their niche that offers structural and functional support.In glioma niche,vascular endothelial cells can provide Notch ligands for cancer stem cells to activate Notch signaling pathway and contact with other signaling pathways,maintaining the tumor stem cell self-renewal and increasing resistance of brain tumor stem cells to radiotherapy.Therefore,Notch signaling pathway is considered to be a new therapeutic target of glioma.

Objective To investigate the effects of intensive training and on the activity of daily living (ADL) and motor function in cerebral infarction patients. Methods 52 cerebral infarction patients with early rehabilitation were divided into an experiment group (n=26) and a control group (n=26). All patients were treated with the conventional training. Meanwhile, the patients in the experimental group were also treated with intensive training. The Modified Barthels Index (MBI) and brief-style Fugl-Meyer assessment (FMA) were used to evaluate the ADL and motor function before and 1 month after treatment. Results The scores of MBI and FMA were significantly different between the two groups 1 month after treatment (P＜0.05). Conclusion Intensive training can improve the ADL and motor function more than conventional training in cerebral infarction patients.

Objective To observe the therapeutical effect of inflatable shoulder harness on hemiplegia subluxation of shoulder joint.Methods 68 stroke patients with hemiplegia subluxation of shoulder joint were divided into two groups: the experiment group (n=34) and the control group (n=34). All the patients accepted routine rehabilitation for subluxation of shoulder joint, meanwhile, the experiment group wore inflatable shoulder harness. The interval between acromion and caput humeralis were measured according to the X-ray before and after treatment, as well as the Fugl-Meyer Assessment and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) of shoulder pain. Results After 8 week of treatment, the rate of diaplasis or improvement was not different significantly between these groups (P<0.05). Compared to the control group, the incidence and VAS score of shoulder pain, and the score of Fugl-Meyer Assessment improved significantly after the treatment (P<0.05). Conclusion On the basis of routine rehabilitation, inflatable shoulder harness may reduce the incidence and grade of shoulder pain, improve motor function of hemiplegic upper limb further in hemiplegia subluxation of shoulder.
