Objective To retrospectively study histopathologic features of ulcerous colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) by endoscopic biopsy. Methods Data of age, gender and intestinal involvement of 106 cases of CD and 180 cases of UC confirmed by pathology were reviewed. Mucosal architecture, chronic inflammation, acute inflammation and epithelial features were evaluated based on histopathological criteria.These features were compared between the two groups. Results Compared with CD cases, UC showed significantly higher percentage of architectural disorders ( P ＜ 0. 05 ), lower percentage of discontinuous chronic inflammation ( P ＜ 0. 05 ) and higher incidence of cryptitis, crypt abscesses and polymorph cells in lamina propria (P ＜0. 05 ), and higher rate of epithelium damage, flattened and less mucous cell as well. Granuloma, pseudo pylorus glands metaplasia and narrow ulcer only occurred in CD cases. Lesions of 90% (162/180) cases of UC were limited to colon, while those of 28% (30/106) of CD cases to ileocecum, and those of 56% (59/106) CD cases involved different parts of gastrointestinal tract. Conclusion Diagnosis of CD and UC needs comprehensive analysis. Diagnostic evidence for CD includes focal involvement of ileocecum, the multifocal involvement in gastrointestinal tract, granuloma, discontinuous inflammation, pyloric gland metaplasia, while that for UC includes mucosal damage limited to colon, continuous chronic inflammation, architectural disorders, or epithelial damage.

Objective To re evaluate the diagnosis and outcome in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) by long term follow up at Wuhan University Zhongnan Hospital in Wuhan, China. Methods One hundred patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) and 15 with Crohn's disease (CD) treated in this hospital from 1980 to 1999 were re evaluated with the uniform diagnostic criteria proposed by National Workshop of Chronic Non infectious Intestinal Diseases, 1993. All patients were followed up by questionnaire, telephone and face to face interview 1～16 years after the initial diagnosis. Results Of 115 patients with IBD, 75(65%) were available for follow up study. Of 64 cases of UC, 46 had their diagnosis confirmed, 9 diagnosed as possible UC, and 9 cases were reclassified as other diseases. Of 11 cases with CD, 7 were diagnosed correctly, 2 were possible CD, and 1 were intestinal tuberculosis. In the remaining 55 UC, 3 died and 1 due to complication of UC. Other 52 UC, 37 had relapse. In the 10 patients with CD, 1 died due to complication. In other 9 cases 7 had relapse. In 46 patients with UC and 6 patients with CD there were symptom free or symptoms improved. Conclusions At follow up 1 to 16 years after the diagnosis of IBD, the initial diagnosis of UC and CD was confirmed in 86% and 82% respectively. Relapse rates of UC and CD were 71% and 78% respectively. The prognosis of patients with UC is better with 88% symptom free and improvement, while only 67% of patients with CD were symptom free and symptoms improved.

With patients' general situation, medication use, occurrence time of adverse drug reaction/event (ADR/ADE), clinical manifestations and prognosis as reference items, a retrospective study was made for 315 cases with ADR/ADE induced by Gastrodin in Chongqing from January 2008 to June 2014, in order to analyze the characteristics of ADR/ADE and provide reference for rational clinical medication. The results showed that among the 315 cases with ADR/ADE, 143 cases (45.4%) were males and 172 cases (54.6%) were females, most of them (74.9%) were aged above 45; 60 cases (19.0%) with ADE were caused by off-label indications and 66 cases (21.0%) with ADE were caused by over dosage; ADR/ADE cases induced by intravenous drip mainly happened within 30 min (85.5%), ADR/ADE cases induced by oral administration mainly happened within 2 h (74.4%), and all of ADR/ ADE cases induced by intramuscular injection happened within 10 min. Totally 593 ADR/ADE cases were reported, which were mainly damages in gastrointestinal system, skin and its adnexa; And 61.9% of ADR/ADE cases were newly reported. It is suggested that medical workers shall learn about the regularity and characteristics of ADR/ADE induced by gastrodin, apply it in clinic with standards, pay close attention to changes of patients' situations and attach importance to the monitoring of ADR/ADE, so as to enhance the safety of medication.

Objective To explore the role of GRK5 in sustained β adrenergic receptor (βAR)-stimulated increased levels of oxidative stress.Methods Male SD rats (180-200 g) were separated into 4 groups according to the random principal: control group (CTRL), control with NAC supplement group (CTRL+NAC), ISO treated group (ISO), and ISO treated with NAC supplement group (ISO+NAC), with 6 rats in each group.ISO group was treated by method of intraperitoneal injection for 3 mg/(kg· d).CTRL rats received same volume of physiological saline by same method, while NAC was treated by supplement in drinking water for 15 g/L per day.After 2 weeks of treatment, BP, heart mass index (HMI), histology changes, expression of NOX4 and GRK5 of myocardium was examined.Results HMI of ISO rats was significantly higher than that of the CTRL group [(3.99±0.10 vs 3.31±0.13) mg/g, P＜0.05], and the cardio-myocyte cross-sectional area of ISO group was also significantly increased compared with CTRL group [(11 117.00±387.57 vs 4572.23±176.39) μm, P＜O.05].ISO+NAC significantly reduced the ISO-induced increases of heart weight index (3.56±0.12 mg/g, vs ISO, P＜0.05) and myocyte cross-sectional area (6160.33±141.44 μm2, vs ISO,P＜0.05).The immunohistochemistry results showed that the expression of myocardial NOX4 of ISO group was significantly higher than that of CTRL group [(10.59±1.61 vs 4.35±1.65), P＜0.05], and NAC reduced the ISO induced NOX4 expression increase [(4.67±1.25 vs 10.59±1.61), P＜0.05].Western Blot and immunohistochemistry were used to detect the protein expression of myocardial GRK5.Both results showed that there were no significant differences between ISO and CTRL, ISO+NAC and ISO group (P＞0.05).RT-qPCR detected no significant differences of myocardial GRK5 mRNA expression between ISO and CTRL, ISO+NAC and ISO groups (P＞0.05).Arterial blood pressure showed no significant difference among the 4 groups of rats (P＞0.05).No significant differences were found between rats from CTRL+NAC and CTRL group.Conclusions In the mechanism of sustained βAR-stimulated cardiac hypertrophy, GRK5 may not participate the regulation of hypertrophy-induced factor, and this process needs to be proved in further study.

Objective To explore the relationship between gene MTDH expression and its role in promo-ting gastric carcinoma metastasis .Methods We collected clinical specimens and cultured gastric carcinoma cell lines.By Western blotting and Real -time PCR methods,protein and mRNA levels in tissues and MTDH relation-ship with EMT were detected .Results There was 86%of patients who expressed MTDH positively and 13%of normal gastric mucosa was positive expression .The results showed that the expressive level of MTDH gene in gas-tric carcinoma was higher than in the normal tissues .The expression of MTDH was correlated with TNM stage、mi-crovascular invasion、recurrence and metastasis .The expressive level of MTDH was correlated with two epithelial mesenchymal transition markers ( E-cadherin and N-cadherin ) .Conclusion MTDH may promote gastric car-cinoma metastasis through the induction of EMT process and may be a candidate biomarker for therapeutic target .

Objective To explore the clinical features of mitochondrial encephalomyopathy lactic acidosis and strokelike episodes (MELAS) syndrome in fratemal twins brothers.Methods The clinical data,the results of laboratory examinations,electroencephalogram (EEG),imaging,and gene detection,and the process of diagnosis and treatment were retrospectively analyzed the fraternal twin brothers with MELAS syndrome.Results The proband,a 7-year-old male,had intermittent headaches,vomit and twitching at onset.He suffered from exercise intolerance,fatigue,accompanied by short stature and hairy.The fasting blood lactic acid level was increased.Multiple video EEG showed the slowdown of background activity.Head MRI showed recurrent lesions with the characteristics of migration and variation.The point mutation rate of mtDNA A3243G was 34.7％.The diagnosis of MELAS was confirmed.At the same time,his fraternal twin brother was screened and found that his point mutation rate of A3243G was 30.0％.Although there was no clinical symptom at that time,he was onset with convulsion after 3 years.Conclusions Gene detection and family screening are helpful for the early diagnosis of MELAS.The mutation rate of A3243G is very high,which can cause an early onset and serious clinical symptoms.

Objective To select the optimal registration method for on-line kilovoltage cone-beam CT (KVCBCT) guided lung cancer radiation and evaluate the reproducibility of the selected method. MethodsSixteen patients with non-small cell lung cancer were enrolled into this study.A total of 96 pre treatment KVCBCT images from the 16 patients were available for the analysis.Image registration methods were bone-based automatic registration,gray-based automatic registration,manual registration and semi-auto matic registration.All registrations were accomplished by one physician.Another physician blindly evaluated the results of each registration,then selected the optimal registration method and evaluated its reproducibili ty.Results The average score of the bone-based automatic registration,gray-based automatic registration, manual registration and semi-automatic registration methods was 2.4,2.7,3.0 and 3.7,respectively.The score of the four different groups had statistics significant difference (F = 42.20,P < 0.001).Using the semi-automatic registration method,the probability of the difference between two registration results more than 3 ram in the left-right,superior-inferior,and anterior-posterior directions was 0,3% and 6% by the same physician,0,14% and 0 by different physicians,and 8%,14% and 8% by physician and radiation therapist.Conclusions Semi-automatic registration method,possessing the highest score and accepted re producibility,is appropriate for KVCBCT guided lung cancer radiation.

A 54-year-old man diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) was admitted in our department in June 2014. After one cycle of FC chemotherapy, a bone marrow examination revealed normalized lymphocyte count and another acute myeloid leuke-mia (AML)-M5 clone. The patient refused sequential treatment and only received follow-up examination. He had continuous hemato-logically stable disease and died of pulmonary infection on July 2015. After a multidisciplinary team discussion, we confirmed the si-multaneous diagnosis of CLL and AML-M5. Through this discussion,tumor second hit model,tumor evolution model,andtumor heterogeneitywere further defined.
