Objective To evaluate computed tomographic findings of struma ovarii so as to improve the knowledge of the imaging diagnostics of this disease.Methods Computed tomography (CT)scans and clinical data of 12 pathologically proven struma ovarii were reviewed retrospectively.Scans were evaluated for the laterality,size,margins,configuration,internal architecture,presence of intracystic high attenuation lesions on pre-contrast scans,the presence of calcifications,solid components enhancement,cyst wall enhancement,and ascites.Results All tumors were unilateral and had smooth margins.Cystic (n = 3)or mainly cystic (n = 9) appearance was common to all the tumors.Eight tumors showed a high attenuation lesion in the cyst portion of the mass on pre-con-trast scans.Calcification was found in 5 cases.The solid components showed different degrees of enhancement after administration of contrast medium.The cyst wall showed mild to moderate enhancement after administration of contrast medium.Five cases of tumors accompany a small amount of ascites.On pathology,the solid portions of the tumor consisted of the thyroid tissue and stoma which contained abundant blood vessels and fibrous tissue,and the cystic portions were filled with high gelatinous fluid of eosinophil-ic colloid.Conclusion On CT scans,struma ovarii appeared most often as a smooth marginated multicystic mass with a high attenu-ation lesion and calcification on pre-contrast scans with marked enhancement of the solid components.

Objective To express the recombinant protein VP1-Z, and investigate whether VLP-Z has the physiological functions like as wild-type VLP. Methods The expression plasmid pET15b-VP1-Z was introduced into competent E. coil BL21 (DF3)/pLys cells by transformation, and the expression of re-combinant protein VP1-Z was induced by incubation of the cells with IPTG. The protein was prepared as pre-viously described for wild-type VLP. The morphous of VLP-Z were observed by electron microscopy, and the physiological functions of VLP-Z were investigated by hemagglutination test and by immunofluorescence. Re-sults The purified VLP-Z composed of VP1-Z possessed hemagglutination activity and yielded a prominent band of 50×10~3 on SDS-PAGE and staining with Coomassie Brilliant Blue. The VLP-Z exhibited virus-like particles structure like as wild-type VLP with a diameter of 45-50 nm, which was slightly bigger than that of wild-type VLP(42-45 nm). In immunofluorescence test, VP1-Z was detected within the cytoplasm and nu-cleus after HeLa cells were inoculated with VLP-Z. Conclusion The physiological functions of recombinat-ed protein VLP-Z were comparable with wild-type VLP.

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy and the dynamic changes of serum vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF),connective tissue growth factor(CTGF),hypoxia inducible factor 1α(HIF-1α)and osteopontin(OPN)levels after transcatheter arterial chemoembolization(TACE)combined with sorafenib in the treatment of advanced hepatocarcinoma(HCC)patients.Methods A total of 113 HCC patients in Cancer Hospital of Taizhou,from September 2013 to December 2014 were elected and were randomly divided into control group(n=56)and experiment group(n=57)according to random number.Control group were treated with sorafenib and experiment group were treated with TACE combined with sorafenib.The serum VEGF,CTGF,HIF-1α and OPN levels were tested and compared using indirect ELISA method preoperative and postoperative 1,3,7 days and which were carried out Spearman correlation analysis.The long-term clinical efficacy and adverse reaction in two groups were statisticed.Results The serum VEGF,CTGF,HIF-1α and OPN levels of two groups postoperative 1 day increased than preoperative(P<0.05).From postoperative one to seven days,the serum VEGF,CTGF,HIF-1α and OPN levels of two groups present downward trend(P<0.05 or P<0.01),and there was significant difference between two groups(P<0.01).The level of HIF-1α significantly positive correlated with the levels of VEGF,CTGF and OPN(r=0.951,0.954,0.929,P<0.05).Compared with control group,the median survival time and 1-year-survival rate of experiment group increased significantly(P<0.01).The incidence of hand-foot reaction,alopecia and diarrhea in experiment group were higher than those in control group(P<0.05),while the others had no significant difference between two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion The levels of VEGF,CTGF,HIF-1α and OPN of HCC patients after treated with TACE combined with sorafenib are lower than that treated with TACE alone,Simultaneously,the survival is prolonged and adverse reactions don't increase.

Objective To construct the vector pET15b-Z-VP1 by inserting the Z fragment into amino-terminal of JCV VP1.Methods The VP1 and Z fragment were amplified by PCR from plasmid pET15b and pEZZ18 respectively,and then they were linked by recombinant PCR.The Z-VP1 fragment was inserted into plasmid pET15b by restriction enzyme BamHⅠ and NcoⅠ.Results The VP1 and Z fragment were obtained by PCR and gel purification.The Z-VP1 fragment,which was linked by recombinant PCR from VP1 and Z fragment,was inserted into plasmid pET15b between BamHⅠ and NcoⅠ sites,and confirmed by enzyme digestion and DNA sequencing.The expression of VP1-Z was confirmed by Western blotting.Conclusion The plasmid pET15b-Z-VP1 has been constructed successfully by inserting Z fragment into amino-terminal of VP1.

Objective To investigate the relationship between heart rate variability and type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)in Kirgiz and Han,to understand the differences between ethnic groups,at the same time to provide effective method for type 2 diabetic autonomic neuropathy.Methods 24 -h Holter recording was performed in 1 46 individuals.75 cases of T2DMconfirmed by glycolated hemoglobin(HbA1 c)were selected as observation group, Kirgiz 40 people,Han 35 people.While 71 subjects without T2DM were chosen as control group,Kirgiz 34 people, Han 37 people.The HRV indices,including standard deviation (SD)for the time between normal -to -normal complexes in the entire 24 h electrocardiographic recording(SDNN),the average of SD for the time between normal -to -normal intervals for each 5 min period(SDNN5),the percentage of adjacent RR intervals 50 ms apart(PNN50), normal RR intervals divided by RR intervals derived from the triangle index(TRIA),SD of the average normal -to -normal intervals for each 5 min period (SDANN)and root -mean square of differences of successive RR intervals (RMSSD)were compared between these groups.Results There were no significant differences in age,gender, education level and smoking between Kirgiz and Han patients.The differences were statistically significant in SDNN, SDNN5,PNN50,SDANN,TRIA(t =3.392,P =0.001 ;t =3.652,P =0.001 ;t =3.826,P =0.001 ;t =3.235,P =0.002;t =2.378,P =0.02)between patients with or without T2DMin Kirgiz population.In contrast,the mean square root of SDNN,SDNN5,PNN50,TRIA,RMSSD(t =3.498,P =0.001 ;t =3.41 4,P =0.001 ;t =2.1 05,P =0.039;t =2.1 02,P =0.039;t =3.41 3,P =0.001 )were statistically significant in Han population between T2DM patients and nondiabetic patients.There was no deference between Han and Kirgiz patients without T2DM in HRV,whereas the TRIA(t =2.887,P =0.005 )had significant difference in T2DM patients between Han and Kirgiz population. Conclusion The HRV is significantly reduced in the T2DMpatients,especially the Kirgiz.The HRV analysis using 24h Holter is a noninvasive technology to detect the T2DM.

OBJECTIVEThis study aimed to analyze the bone anatomy of edentulous sites in the posterior maxillary by cone beam computed tomography (CBCT).

METHODSA total of 100 CBCT radiographs from patients with missing maxillary posterior teeth were obtained, resulting in a sample size of 217 edentulous sites. The width and height of edentulous were assessed by three-dimensional reconstruction. In addition, the angle A and morphology of the maxillary sinus walls were evaluated.

RESULTSThe mean bone height was 9.53 mm, and the percentage of sites than 10 mm was 62.67% (136/217). The mean bone width was 9.30 mm, and the percentage of sites more than 6 mm was 91.71% (199/217). The bone height decreased from premolar to molar areas, but the opposite trend was observed in bone width. Regarding the morphology of the sinus floor, 64.52% exhibited an oblique configuration. In angle A, the group of less than 30° was 10.14%, 30°-60° was 42.40%, and greater than 60° was 47.47%.

CONCLUSIONA high percentage of edentulous sites in the posterior maxillary requires sinus floor elevation to allow the placement of dental implants. Thus, the use of CBCT scans is recommended to evaluate the anatomical structure of the maxillary sinus for reasonable implant planning.
