BACKGROUND:Lumbar disc herniation is the most common cause of lumbago in clinic, which seriously affect the patient's daily life, study and work. Therefore, studies on biomechanics of lumbar intervertebral disk benefit to prevent and treat the diseases associated with lumbar intervertebral disk. OBJECTIVE: To summarize the biomechanical progress of lumbar intervertebral disk. METHODS: The first author retrieved China National Knowledge Infrastructure and PubMed database for literatures published from 2009 to 2014. The key words were intervertebral disc, nucleus pulposus, biomechanics, fibrosis annulus, cartilage in Chinese and English, respectively. Articles regarding biomechanical characteristics of lumbar intervertebral disk, nucleus pulposus, fibrosis annulus and cartilage were included, and repetitive studies were excluded. Totaly 5 072 articles were retrieved initialy. In accordance with inclusion and exclusion criteria, 41 articles were included in result analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:We can fuly understand the pathogenesis, development and adverse consequences of diseases related to the lumbar intervertebral disk by summarizing the structural features and internal pressure of lumbar intervertebral disk and the effect of different loads, biomechanical characteristics of lumbar intervertebral disk with degenerative changes and establishment of mechanical model of lumbar intervertebral disk. It is of directive significance for daily health care of the lumbar intervertebral disk and how to better use force, a physical factor, to solve the lumbar intervertebral disk problems.

Myelodysplastic syndromes ( MDS ) represent a heterogeneous group of clonal hematopoietic disorders with diverse clinical course .Because of the heterogeneity and the lack of molecular markers to monitor disease progression, clinical management of MDS patients is challenging .Recently, with the development of molecular analysis techniques , an increasing number of MDS related molecular biomarkers have been reported.In this review, we will discuss the clinical applications of the newly reported molecular makers in terms of diagnosis , prognosis and treatment.These markers may improve the diagnosis and prognostic assessment systems of MDS , which may potentially be used to guide decision making in the individual therapy.

Objective To investigate the CT and MRI features of solid-cystic papillary tumors(SCPTs) of the pancreas.Methods Eight cases of SCPTs confirmed by operation and pathology underwent both plain and contrast-enhanced CT examination,and MR examination in three cases and contrast-enhanced MRI in two cases.Results In the eight patients,the mean tumor diameter was 7.6 cm and the lesions were found mainly in the body and tail of the pancreas,only one at the pancreatic head.On plain CT scan,the tumors appeared as huge solid-cystic mass with definite margin and an integritied capsul,the solid areas were papillary or irregular components,and the cystic areas in central were low attenuation.On contrast-enhanced CT,the cystic wall and solid part were slight enhancement in arterial phase,and moderate or obvious enhancement in parenchymal phase.Irregular ringed and punctate calcification could be seen in five cases,the acute hemorrhage occurred in one case,slight dilation of the pancreatic duct was noticed in one patient.MRI showed an ovoid solid-cystic mass of the pancreas with distinct border.On T1WI,heterogeneous iso-and hypo-intensity was observed.One case showing the high signal intensity in tumor was subacute hemorrhage.On T2WI,the tumors were mixed hypo-,iso-and hyperintensity.The papillary or flocculent solid portion and the cystic wall were enhanced after gadolinium was used.Conclusion SCPTs is of certain clinic,CT and MRI characteristic findings,which can aid in reaching a proper diagnosis.

The mutation status of calreticulin gene (CALR) is helpful for the diagnosis of JAK2 / MPL mutation-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN), and is closely related to the MPN progression and prognosis.Currently, Sanger sequencing, PCR-fragment analysis, high resolution melting, Taqman RQPCRand the next generation sequencing have been reported to be used to detecting the CALR gene mutations.A proper method for CALR mutation detection and a right laboratory diagnostic procedure according to the MPN-related molecular markers will facilitate the rapid and effective diagnosis and treatment of MPN.

Objective To investigate the mechanism and prevention of gallstones after esophageal cancer surgery.Methods Clinical data from 297 cases of esophageal cancer patients underwent surgical treatment from 2007 to 2010 inour hospital were retrospectively analyzed for the incidence of post-operative gallstones.ResultsNo cholecystitis and gallstones were detected by B-ultrosound before the operation in the 39 patients.13.1% of the patients developed gallstones from 1 month to 3 years after the operation.The incidence was significantly higher than that in general population.Conclusion There is a high chance of gallstones in patients after radical resection of esophageal cancer.Cutting vagus nerve plays an important role in the incidence of gallstones.Preservation of vagus nerve during the surgery should be performed as possible.

Objective To construct pseudotyped retroviral vector MuLV/VSV-G and transfer it into rabbit smooth muscle cells (SMC) in order to provide a high-efficiency vector for SMC gene transfer. Methods We constructed pseudotyped retroviral vector MuLV/VSV-G containing the previously reported gene lacZ, determined the titer, and determined the efficiency of gene transfer into SMC mediated by pseudotyped retroviral vector MuLV/VSV-G. Finally the transfer efficiency was compared with that by MuLV. Results MuLV/VSV-G vector was constructed. The titer of the vector was 6-7.8×10~6CFU, the transfer efficiency was (92±12)% by using MuLV/VSV-G vector and (24±5)% by MuLV vector. Conclusion Pseudotyped retroviral vector MuLV/VSV-G which was constructed successfully is a kind of high-efficiency gene transfer vector in smooth muscle cells.
