Objective To systematically evaluate the relationship between stroke location and post-stroke depression (PSD) in first-ever stroke patients.Methods The studies on the relationship between stroke location and PSD published from January 1980 to March 2016 were retrieved from databases,including Chinese science and technology journal full-text database (VIP),China journal full-text database (CNKI),Wanfan database,PubMed,ISI Web of Science,Ovid database and Elsevier Science Direct.RevMan5.3 software was adopted for data consolidation and analysis.Results A total of 14 studies,including 1 952 cases of patients were included.The meta analysis indicated that no direct relationship was found between stroke location and PSD in first-ever stroke patients [random effects model,95 ％CI(0.89,1.43),P＜0.01].The results of subgroup analysis indicated that the PSD was associated with the right hemisphere lesion when the Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) was adopted for assessment [fixed effects model,95 ％ CI(1.21,1.76),P＜0.01],while the relationships were not found in the subgroup analysis of time course after stroke and the aphasia occurrence.Conclusion Stroke location may be not directly associated with PSD,further studies are needed to ascertain the relationship between stroke location and PSD.

Objective Konno-Rastan procedure is one option to cope with complex multilevel left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO),which continues to pose a serious challenge to cardiac surgeons.The aim of this study is to retrospectively analyse indications for Konno-Rastan procedure,and to review the safeguards and pitfalls.Methods Between January 1996 and August 2012,totally 13 children with multilevel LVOTO underwent Konno-Rastan procedure.There were 8 boys and 5 girls.Age at surgeries ranged from 5 to 13 years,and weight from 12 to 51 kg with median of 21 kg.The pathology of this cohort includes:8 cases of congenital aortic valvular stenosis,3 cases of congenital aortic valvular stenosis combined with supravalvular stenosis,1 case of congenital aortic stenosis combined with VSD,coarctation and RVOT obstruction,1 case of aortic stenosis s/p percutaneous balloon aortic valvuloplasty.All patients have secondary diffuse tunnel LVOTO.Diameter of aortic ring ranges from 12.0 to 16.4 mm,and pressure gradient across the stenotic region ranges from 90-151 mm Hg.8 cases were implanted with St.Jude AG19 while 5 cases implanted with St.Jude AG17.Results All 13 cases survived.The 4th patient was implanted permanent epicardial pacemaker for transient Ⅲ AVB.The 4th and 5th patients were found residual ventricular septal repture at the nadir of ventricular incision,one underwent redo procedure while another is being followed up.All cases take cumadine to sustain INR at 1.8-2.5.No death emerges during follow-up period.The motality is 0％,the incidence rate of B is 7.7％,residual VSD 15.4％ and endocarditis 7.7％.Conclusion Konno-Rastan procedure is a promising techi.to relieve LVOTO.However,this complex procedure may lead to several fetal complications.Success of the surgery demands perfect operations.

Objective To study the pathogenic features, diagnosis and treatment of aberrant thyroid cancer.Methods A retrospective analysis of clinical and pathological data of 29 cases of aberrant thyroid cancer was made.Results All of the 29 patients underwent operative treatment and postoperative adjuvant radiation therapy and chemotherapy. On postoperative follow up, the 5-year survival rate was 52.0%. The longest survivor patient was alive 24 years after operation.Conclusions The key to increase the survival rate of patients is early detection and timely surgical treatment. Postoperative adjuvant radiation therapy and chemotherapy are conducive to increase survival rate.

Objective To explore influence of long-term inhaled glucocoticoids(IGS) on soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1(sICAM-1)) in children with bronchial asthma.Methods Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) method was used to detect the serum sICAM-1 level in 36 healthy children and 29 children with bronchial asthma(untreated and post-treated for 3,6 and 12 months).Results 1.Serum sICAM-1 level was significantly elevated in children with asthma and significantly higher than that in normal control group(P

Objective To revise the Symptom Distress Scale for postoperative patients with pituitary tumor and to test its reliability and validity. Methods On the base of previous qualitative interview and literature review, Delphi consultation was performed to identify items of the Symptom Distress Scale for postoperative patients with pituitary tumor. By convenience sampling method, totally 191 patients from four first-class ternary hospitals in Jiangsu province were investigated effectively by this scale. Results A scale of 4 factors and 16 items was identified by expert interviews, item analysis, exploratory factor analysis and the four factors could explain 69.812%of the variance. The Cronbachαcoefficient of the scale was 0.920, the content validity index was 0.915, and the interrater reliability was 0.860. Conclusions Symptom Distress Scale for postoperative patients with pituitary tumor has good reliability and validity to assess the symptom distress of pituitary tumor patients after operation.

AIM: To study apoptosis and bcl-2 mRNA gene expression of cardiomyocytes in donor hearts of immature rabbits underwent prolonged protection by 11, 12-epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (11, 12-EET), and further probe into the possible mechanisms. METHODS: 24 isolated immature rabbit hearts were performed to the model in a Langendorff perfusion apparatus and randomly assigned to normal control group,ST control group and EET group. The isolated rabbit hearts in ST control group and EET group were stored for 24 hours with 4 ℃ hypothermia, and underwent 30 minutes of reperfusion (37 ℃). TUNEL and in situ hybridization (ISH) methods were applied in the present study and apoptotic cells and bcl-2 mRNA gene expression were observed. RESULTS: The numbers of apoptotic cardiomyocytes in ST group and EET group were higher than that in normal control group, and the numbers of apoptotic cardiomyocytes were significantly decreased in EET group and bcl-2 mRNA positive expression were higher than that in ST control group, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: There were apoptosis during the prolonged protection of donor heart in our study, and we proved that: ①11,12-EET could decrease cardiomyocyte apoptosis significantly. ②Up-regulation of the bcl-2 mRNA expression in cardiomyocytes may be one of the mechanism responsible for inhibition of cardiomyocyte apoptosis by 11, 12-EET.
