Objective To investigate the relationship between IGF2BP3 hypomethylation with colon tumor differentia?tion. Methods Tissue samples from 41 colorectal cancer were collected from March 2011 to August 2011 in our hospital, among which 19 cases were well-differentiated adenocarcinoma, 12 cases were of moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma and 10 cases were of poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. Meanwhile biopsy samples from 12 cases of colonic colitis were collected as a control. The expression of IGF2BP3 was assessed by immunohistochemistry and Western blot. An innovate of ELISA technique was used to examine global methylation levels while IGF2BP3 methylation level was tested by methylation specific PCR technique. Results The expressions of IGFBP3 are higher in all colon cancer groups than that in colitis (P<0.05). The expression of IGFBP3 in poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma is higher than that in all the other groups, but there is no significant difference between its expressions in the well differentiated group and in the moderately differentiated adeno?carcinoma group. The global DNA level and IGFBP3 methylation level of every colon cancer group is lower than those in coli?tis (P<0.05). Also, a tendency of decreasing global DNA and IGFBP3 methylation status was observed comparing well differ?entiated towards poorly differentiated carcinomas (P<0.05). Conclusion IGF2BP3 expression in colorectal cancer is asso?ciated with differentiation of colon cancer tissue. A lower global and IGF2BP3 DNA methylation suggest a worse differentia?tion of colon cancer. DNA hypomethylation may therefore play a regulatory role in the expression of IGF2BP3 in colon cancer tissue.

Objective To study the impact on pregnant outcome of reducing the number of embryos transferred from three to two in women at age less than 35 who received frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET). Methods The analysis was performed on 90 FET cycles (77 infertile couples,less than 35 years old) with slow-freezing/rapid-thawing method, including 48 cycles with two embryos transferred and 42 cycles with three embryos transferred. The embryo survival rate, high quality embryo rate, clinical pregnancy rate, implantation rate and multiple pregnancies rate were analyzed. Results No significant differences in embryo survival rate (88.9% versus 88.1%), high quality embryo rate (89.6% versus 81.0%), clinical pregnancy rate (37.5% versus 42.9%), implantation rate (26.0% versus 18.3%) and multiple pregnancy rate (38.9% versus 16.7%) were observed between two and three embryos transferred group (all P > 0.05). However, there were 2 triple pregnancies in three embryos transferred group while none in two embryos transferred group. Conclusion Reducing the number of high quality embryos transferred from three to two in women at age of less than 35 years old who received FET,could decrease the incidence of triple pregnancy and keep the similar clinical pregnancy rate.

Purpose To explore the value of direct CT venography (CTV) for the diagnosis of varicose veins of lower limb. Materials and methods Forty patients diagnosed as varicose veins of lower limbs were enrolled. 40 patients with 56 involved limbs underwent direct CTV examination, and their images were stratified and evaluated according to the severity and the scope of the disease. Main assessment:definition and scope of CT axial scans combined with volume rendering (VR) and maximum intensity projection for the display of the varicose veins; situation for the display of perforating veins, deep veins and iliac veins;diagnostic compliance between CTV and DSA. Results All of the 56 involved limbs underwent laser intra-cavity occlusion surgery, among them 7 cases with 11 limbs underwent venous angiography under DSA at the same time. In the evaluation of the VR, excellent proportion was 92.86%(52/56), moderate proportion was 7.14%(4/56). Among the deep veins, ratio of the imaging that was able to meet the diagnostic standard was 94.34%, 88.46%and 27.27%, respectively for calf vein, femoral vein and external iliac vein. The total demonstration rate of perforating veins was 98.21%(55/56). Diagnostic compliance between CTV and DSA was 100.00%. Conclusion Lower extremity direct CTV imaging is convenient and noninvasive for patients with varicose veins, with high compliance with DSA results, thus is significantly valuable for the guide of clinical treatment.
