Objective To analyze the relationship between baseline serum γ?glutamyltransferase (GGT) and risk of the metabolic syndrome (MS). Method A total of 4 935 adults from health checkup population in Shenzhen were enrolled into a 10?year follow?up study, of these adults 81.84%were male and 18.16% were female, the average age was 60.54 ± 10.38 years.The follow?up outcome measure was the occurrence of MS. The proportional hazards model was adopted to calculate the hazard ratios (HR) and 95%confidence intervals (95%CI) to analyze the association of GGT with the development of MS. Reslut The mean follow up period was 5.0 ± 2.9 years, and there were 24 713 person?years of follow?up, and 1 689 subjects developed MS. During the follow?up, the cumulative incidence and incidence density of MS were 34.22%and 68.34/1 000 person?years, respectively. For both genders, the association between GGT and MS presented dose?response relationship trend (male: M?C χ2=32.78, P<0.001; female: M?C χ2=18.80, P<0.001). After adjusting for age, gender, body mass index, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, high?density lipoprotein cholesterol, low?density lipoprotein cholesterol, triglycerides, uric acid and fasting blood glucose in Cox regression model, the HR for MS in quartiles 3 and 4 level of GGT was 1.45 (95%CI:1.08-1.85) and 1.52 (95%CI:1.15-1.99), respectively. Conclusion The GGT level could be an important risk factor and predictor for the development of MS.

Radiotherapy physics is a cross subject that studies and solves the scientific problem referring to medicine treatment based on physics.Ceaseless progresses of Radiotherapy equipments such as Cobait-60 treatment machine,Linear Accelerator,Gama Knife,Tomotherapy have provided comprehensive treatment measures for malignant tumor.Therapies including conformal Radiotherapy,Intensity Modulation Radiotherapy and Gama Knife are progressing and being perfected.Further research should be done on dose fraction.Boron Neutron Capture Therapy and Proton Therapy are being studied.Treatment Plan System and Target Delimitation need perfecting.

Objective To compare dose distribution in gamma knife radiotherapy plan, conformal radiotherapy(CRT)plan and intensity modulated radiotherapy(MRT)plan for patients with small mass in lung, and evaluate their characters. Methods Fourteen patients with small mass in lung participated in the study. Gamma knife radiotherapy plan(plan 1), CRT plan(plan 2)and IMRT plan(plan 3)were made for each mass. The planning target volume(PTV)and the dose include 95% PTV were consistent.Conformal index(CI), homogeneity index(HI), lung V5 ,V10 ,V20 ,V30 and the max dose of esophagus and spinal cord were analyzed. Paired samples t-test was used for comparison between each two plans. Results The CI of the plan 1,2 and 3 were 0. 58,0. 46 and 0. 63, respectively. CI of the plan 1 ＞ that of the plan 2 (t= -3.95,P =0.000),plan 3 ＞ plan 2(t = -6.01 ,P =0.000),plan 1 =plan 3(t =1.64,P =0.116);HI of the plan 1,2 and 3 were 1.66,1.10 and 1.07 respectively. HI of the plan 1 ＞ plan 2 ,plan 1 ＞ plan 3(t= -20.52,21.41 respectively, both P=0. 000),plan 2 = plan 3(t= -1.08,P=0.294). The wholelung V5 ,V10 ,V20 and V30 were 10.0% ,5.6% ,2. 4% and 1.2%, respectively, in plan 1 ;20. 2% ,13. 4%,6. 9% ,3.0%, respectively, in plan 3; and 26. 5%, 18. 0%, 11.4% and 4. 6%, respectively, in plan 2.The V5, V10, V20 and V 30 of the plan 1 ＜ in plan 2(t = 9. 68,8. 41,5. 45,5. 14, all P = 0. 000), the V5,V10,V20 and V30 of the plan 1 ＜ in plan 3(t=7.58,8.95,6. 15,4.78, respectively, all P=0.000),the V5 ,V10, V20andV30 oftheplan2 ＞ inplan3(t =9. 71,5. 91,4. 13,3.91, respectively, allP =0.000).The max dose of esophagus in plan 1 ,2 and 3 were 24.93 ± 21.54, 31.90 ± 18. 75, 29. 19 ± 23.09 Gy,respectively, plan 1 ＜ plan 2(t = -2. 71 ,P=0.013),plan 1 = plan 3(t = - 1.49,P =0. 152),plan 2 =plan 3(t = 1.35, P = 0. 193). The max dose of spinal cord in plan 1,2 and 3 were 12.07 ± 10. 67,17.70 ±11.35 and 8.92 :± 10. 04 Gy, respectively, plan 2 ＞ plan 1 ＞plan 3(t = -2. 38,2. 29,4. 83,P=0. 1027,0.033,0.000);All three plans of each mass meet the needs that the max dose of the esophagus≤60 Gy and the max dose of spinal cord ≤40 Gy. Conclusions The dose of the normal lung was lower, but the HI and the max dose of spinal cord were higher in Gamma knife radiotherapy plan than those in the CRT and the IMRT plan of the small mass in lung.

Objective To evaluate the safety, effectiveness and feasibility of robotic-assisted kidney transplantation (RAKT). Methods Clinical data of 16 patients who underwent kidney transplantation were collected. Among them, 8 recipients received RAKT (RAKT group) and 8 cases underwent open kidney transplantation (OKT) with the contralateral kidney from the same donor (OKT group). Perioperative status and the recovery of renal allograft function were compared between two groups. Results All patients successfully completed the surgery. In the RAKT group, no patient was converted to open surgery. The operation time in the RAKT group was longer than that in the OKT group (P=0.015). No significant differences were observed in the serum creatinine levels before surgery and upon discharge between two groups (both P>0.05). In the OKT group, one recipient developed delayed graft function (DGF), and the remaining recipients did not experience perioperative complications. No significant difference was noted in the short-term recovery of renal allograft function between two groups (P>0.05). Conclusions Postoperative recovery of the recipients in the RAKT group is equivalent to that of their counterparts in the OKT group. RAKT is a safe and effective procedure for the team expertise in kidney transplantation.
