Extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma is a kind of disease that is associated with EB virus infection and characterized by progressive distruction and necrosis of the nasal cavity and midline facial tissues, with histological features of diffuse lymphomatous cells inflitrate and inflammatory cells as abackground or angiocentric and angioinvasive inflitrate.The prognosis is poor,as it is highly aggressive and it can progress rapidly.This article mainly discusses and reviews the progress in treatment methods.

Objective To develop an alignment technique based on the movement of body gravity center. Methods As join forces in the system of balance is zero, the position of body gravity center can be calculated by body gravity which is taken from weight sensors, by the special software. Meanwhile, the position of body gravity will be sent to control unit, which can be transformed to driving signal of motor. The sliding table with laser, linked to motor, can make pursuit movement following with body gravity. A precise alignment can be made as the movement of body gravity. The balance function test is also used to make an assistant estimate for the alignment. Results and Conclusion An alignment technique has been developed for the fit of prosthesis and orthotics.

We developed a three-dimensional finite element model of the shoulder glenohumeral joint after shoulder arthroplasty including humerus shaft, scapular, scapular cartilage and eight muscles, while each of the muscles was simulated with 50 spring elements. To reduce the element number and improve the analytical precision, we used mixed tetrahedral and hexahedral elements in the model. We then used the model to calculate the biomechanics of the shoulder glenohumeral joint after hemiarthroplasty during humeral external rotation. Results showed that the maximum joint reaction force was 374.72 N and the maximum contact stress was 6. 573 MPa together with the contact areas at 40 degrees external rotation. These might be one of the reasons for prosthetic disarticulation, and would provide theoretical bases to prosthetic design.

ObjectiveFollow-up of the clinical outcome of prosthetic disc nucleus replacement on patients with lumbar intervertebral disc herniation. Methods16 patients with lumar intervertebral disc herniation were implanted prosthetic disc nucleus from June to August 2003, including 10 males and 6 females. The operation levels were at L4-5 in 10 patients and L5～S1 in 6 patients. All patients were followed up from 28 to 32 months (averaged 30 months). The contents include pain, physical examination, Short-form of McGill Pain Questionnaire investigation, Visual Analogue Scales(VAS) and Present Pain Intensity(PPI), X-ray and MRI examination, etc. ResultsAfter surgery, 16 patients experienced clinical symptom relief, the displacement of PDN in 1 case and dislocation in 1case, the height of intervertebral space becoming narrower in 5 cases and endplate subsiding in 1 case. ConclusionProsthetic disc nucleus replacement acquired satisfactory after operation, but some complication may occurre in long-term.

70 bpm during scan),the proportion of segments that could not be assessed because of motion artifact were 0.1%(1/759),1.1%(7/649),2.5% (10/407),42.6%(103/242),and 75.5%(108/143),respectively.With conventional selective coronary angiography as the golden standard,the sensitivity,specificity,positive and negative prediction values to detect≥50% stenotic lesions in the assessable segments were 79.2%,96.0%,83.8%,and 94.6%,respectively.There was a significant correlation between the number of segments per patient not assessable because of motion artifact and heart rate during the scan(r=0.655,P=0.000).Conclusion MSCT is capable of achieving high accuracy for detection of coronary artery stenosis,and is a reliable technique to diagnose coronary artery disease.

Objective To observe the changes of expression and activity of heme oxygenase-1(HO-1) in lung tissue of preterm rats exposed to hyperoxia,and explore the role of HO-1 in hyperexia-induced lung injury of preterm rats.Methods Three-day-old preterm rats of standard SD were randomly assigned to hyperoxia group and air group.At the third and 7th day of exposure,the expressions of HO-1 mRNA were detected by means of reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and the cellular distribution and expressions of HO-1 protein in the lung were measured by immunohistochemical techniques,respectivesly,and the active of HO-1 was determined also.Results On the third day,in air group,the expressions of HO-1 mRNA(0.17 ?0.08),HO-1(7.23?4.63)were mildly expressed and the activity of HO-1 was(4.32?1.57) nmol/(mg?h);compared with those of air group,the expression of HO-1 mRNA in hyperoxia group(0.72?0.33) was significantly increased(Pa

Objective To explore the effect of protoporphyrin Ⅸ zinc(Znpp) on hyperoxic lung injury in preterm rats.Methods Three-day-old preterm SD rats were randomly assigned to room air control group(group Ⅰ)hyperoxia control group(oxygen≥900 mL/L)(group Ⅱ),room air plus Znpp group(group Ⅲ),hyperoxia plus Znpp group(group Ⅳ).Group Ⅲ and group Ⅳ were injected intraperitoneally with ZnPP 45 ?mol/kg each day.After the third day and the 7th day of exposure,the activity of heme oxygenase-1(HO-1) and the percent of carboxyhemoglobin(HbCO) in the lungs,the lung wet weight /dry weight ratio(W/D),tumor necrosis factor-?(TNF-?),total protein and malondialdehyde(MDA) in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid were determined and lung histophathological changes were examined in all groups.Results On the third day,compared with group Ⅰ the activity of HO-1 and the percent of HbCO in the lungs,W/D,TNF-?,total protein and MDA,all greatly rised in group Ⅱ(Pa

Objective To explore the relationship between Arg913Gln(G→A) polymorphism of solute carrier family 12 member 3 (SLC12A3) gene and diabetic nephropathy (DN) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in Han population of Shanghai. Methods Two hundred and fifty-eight Han ethnic people in Shanghai with T2DM (T2DM group) were divided into non-DN group (DN0 group, n=95) and DN group (n=163) according to 24 h urine albumin excretion rate (AER), and those in DN group were subdivided into microalbuminuria group (DN1 group, n=95) and macroalbuminuria group (DN2 group, n=68). Besides, 82 people with normal results of oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), without diabetes mellitus and nephropathy were served as controls. PCR-sequencing was used to detect the genotypes of Arg913Gln polymorphism of SLC12A3 gene. Genotypic and allelic frequencies and clinical characteristics were compared among groups. Results Three genotypes (GG, GA and AA) were detected. The frequencies of GA+AA genotype and A allele in T2DM group were higher than those in control group, while there was no significant difference between groups (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in genotypic or allelic frequencies among subgroups of T2DM group (P>0.05). The level of triglyeeride (TG), AER, level of fasting insulin (FINS) and HOMA-IR in patients with GA+AA genotype were significantly higher than those in patients with GG genotype in T2DM group (P<0.05). Conclusion Arg913Gln(G→A) polymorphism of SLC12A3 gene is not significantly associated with T2DM and DN in Han population of Shanghai. The AER of people with GA+AA genotype is significantly higher than that with GG genotype. Arg913Gln (G→A) polymorphism of SLC12A3 gene may predict the risk of increase of albuminuria in patients with T2DM in Han population of Shanghai.
