Objective:To analyze CT characteristics of pancreatic carcinoma coexisting with chronic pancreatitis versus chronic pancreatitis in order to improve its CT differential diagnostic accuracy.Methods:CT findings in 14 cases of pancreatic carcinoma coexisting with chronic pancreatitis and 15 cases of chronic pancreatitis were retrospectively analyzed.Both plain and enhanced CT scans were performed in all cases.Thin-layer scan was practiced when required.Observation was focused on the size,shape,density of pancreas,its relationship with Peripancreatic tissues,the images of enhancement,and the location,size,density of pancreatic carcinoma.Moreover,observation was focused on the dilation of common bile duct,main pancreatic duct and hepatic bile duct Then,CT characteristics of pancreatic carcinoma coexisting with chronic pancreatitis and chronic pancreatitis were analyzed and compared.Results:In the pancreatic carcinoma coexisting with chronic pancreatitis group,all cases have mass,and noenhancement in the arterial phrase.Peripancreatic blood vessels were invaded or surrounded(5 cases and 4 cases respectively).Peripancreatic adipose were not seen enough(5 cases).Lymph node enlargement(4 cases),Liver metastasis(5 cases).Dilation of common bile duc(t8 cases,9.67 mm?2.64 mm),6 of which showed broke off abruptly.Pancreas atrophy(6 cases),Calcification(4 cases),Dilation of main pancreatic duc(t7 cases),Pseudocys(t2 cases).In chronic pancreatitis group,pancreatic mass(2 cases),one of which showed no enhancement in the arterial phrase;Peripancreatic blood vessels was surrounded by Peripancreatic mass and the boundary between blood vessels and adipose was not clear(1 case);None of the cases was seen Peripancreatic blood vessels invasion;no liver metastasis or Lymph node metastasis.Dilation of common bile duc(t3 cases,7.53 mm?1.45 mm),one of which showed broke off abruptly.Pancreas atrophy(7 cases),Calcification(5 cases),Dilation of main pancreatic duct(7 cases,4.73 mm?3.04 mm),Pseudocyst(4 cases).Conclusion:Style of mass dynamic enhancement of pancreatic carcinoma coexisting with chronic pancreatitis,Peripancreatic blood vessels invasion,liver metastasis,and lymph node metastasis are important basis of CT differentiation of pancreatic carcinoma coexisting with chronic pancreatitis from chronic pancreatitis.

Objective To analyze the clinical behavior and correlative mechanism of the patients with the syndrome of neck injury associate with craniocerebral injury,to investigate its incidence for contributing to the diagnosis and therapy of the patients with the craniocerebral injury and improving the postoperative result. Methods Two hundred and eighty-three patients with craniocerebral injury treated from June 2000 to July 2003 were studied retrospectively. Results In 283 patients, 42( 14.8%) patients presented the syndrome of neck injury clearly in symptom or sign, of whom 39 ( 13.7% ) patients were diagnosed neck injury finally, 3 (1.1%) patients were clinically conclude neck injury. The syndrome mainly presents with noncerebral and nonaural vertigo incorresponding with the recovery of brain injury. Noncerebral, nonaural and nondigestive vomit. Intractable nuchal rigidity incorresponding with the recovery of brain injury. Motion and position limited, stubborn neck malaise, transient spinal cord injury. The symptoms were easy to be improved by neck motion control, neck traction,block therapy, massage and physiotherapy lamp. Conclusion The syndrome of brain-neck injury is a common injury. To learn the syndrome and take the regular therapy can improve the therapeutic efficacy of the craniocerebral injury.

Vav3 oncogene is a member of the Vav family. Vav3 protein contains multiple functional motifs and is involved in cancer development and progression through its role in various cellular signaling processes, including cytoskeleton organization, calcium influx, genetic transcription, cell transformation, proliferation and apoptosis. In addition, Vav3 interacts with estrogen receptor and enhances ERα-mediated signaling axis, therefore plays an important role in breast cancer.

Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is the rate-limiting enzyme for the hydrolysis of the triglyceride core of circulating triglyceride-rich lipoproteins.LPL can not only affect the lipoprotein level,but also play an important role in the development of atherosclerosis.LPL gene polymorphisms may affect LPL activity,and therefore have both pro-and anti-atherogenic effects.This article reviews the relationship between LPL gene polymorphism and atherosclerosis.

AIM:To investigate the effects of ursolic acid ( UA) on the migration and invasion of human lung cancer cell line A549, and to explore its mechanism .METHODS:The cell viability was detected by MTT assay .The ex-pression of miRNA-133a was detected in the A549 cells treated with UA by real-time PCR.The miRNA-133a mimics and inhibitor were transfected into the A 549 cells, and the transfection efficiency was analyzed by real-time PCR.The cell mi-gratory and invasive abilities were determined by wound healing and Transwell methods , respectively .RESULTS:The via-bility of the human lung cancer A549 cells was significantly inhibited by UA in a dose-dependent manner (P<0.05).IC50 of UA (24 h) for lung cancer A549 cells was 31.04 μmol/L.UA treatment significantly inhibited the migratory and inva-sive abilities of A549 cells in a concentration-dependent manner , accompanied by significantly elevation of miRNA-133a expression.The mimics and inhibitor of miRNA-133a significantly upregulated and downregulated the expression of miRNA -133a in the transfected A549 cells, respectively.In addition, the viability of the A549 cells was decreased extremely after tansfected with the miRNA-133a mimics (P<0.01), so did the results of the cell migration and invasion test .The A549 cells tansfected with the miRNA-133a inhibitor showed an opposite changes of the cell viability , migration and invasion . CONCLUSION:UA inhibited the viability , migration and invasion of lung cancer A 549 cells by elevating the expression of miRNA-133a.

Objective To evaluate the effect of wound experts′ intervention on the primary caregivers′ behavior of caring patients with pressure ulcers. Methods According to the principle of convenience sampling, 200 cases of patients with out-hospital pressure ulcers were collected in the hospital emergency department between December 2013 and December 2015. Each 100 cases were randomly divided into the intervention group and the control group according to odd even packet. Primary family caregivers in the intervention group were implemented the additional behavioral intervention by professional wound experts on the basis of the conventional education, while the control group only with conventional education. Primary caregivers′behavior score in the intervention group were compared in 1 month and 2 months. And the differences of recovery rate and incidence of pressure ulcers were compared between intervention group and control group. Results The recovery rate of pressure ulcers in intervention group was 59% (59/100) ,which was significantly higher than 32% (32/100) of the control group (χ2=14.690, P=0.000), and the incidence of pressure ulcers rate was 24% (24/100) in intervention group which was significantly lower than 39%(39/100) in the control group (χ2=5.214,P=0.022). Primary caregivers′behavior scores in the intervention group were (48.27±6.12) points after 1 month and (46.18± 4.44) points after 2 months, while those in the control group were (44.15 ± 4.33) points and (43.33 ± 5.67) points, respectively, and the difference of behavior scores in different time-points were statistically significant (F=18.93, P < 0.01). Moreover, the difference of behavior scores was also statistically significant between intervention group and control group (F=5.512, P < 0.05). Conclusions Wound experts′ intervention on home primary caregivers can effectively help improve caregivers′ behavior, promote the healing of pressure ulcers, and reduce the occurrence of complications.

Objective To evaluate the clinical application of ultrasound-guided Mammotome system in the treatment of breast lesions.Methods A total of 1081 patients with 1913 breast lesions received Mammotome minimally invasive excision,and the efficacy of treatment and follow-up results were retrospectively analyzed.Results All 1913 lesions in 1081 patients were treated with the Mammotome system.The duration of operation was 4 minutes,and the average excision times was 15 for every lesion,1894 lesions (99.01%) in 1063 patients were benign breast masses,19 lesions (0.99%) in 18 patients were breast carcinoma.Complication occurred in 39 lesions (2.04%).Conclusion Ultrasound-guided Mammotome system is one of the effective ways in the clinical diagnosis and treatment of breast lesions.
