BACKGROUND:Apolipoprotein E is one of the important plasma apolipoproteins with polymorphism and involved in lipid metabolism and cholesterol balance modulation, playing also a role in the normal growth and repair of the nervous system.OBJECTIVE: To analyze apolipoprotein E gene polymorphism in patients with vascular dementia (VaD) in comparison with patients with cerebral infarction (CI) patients and healthy controls, so as to elicit the relationship between apolipoprotein E gene polymorphism and VaD.DESIGN: Case-control study.SETTING: Department of Neurology, General Hospital of Jinan Military Area Command of Chinese PLA.PARTICIPANTS: The participants were recruited from the inpatients and outpatients with cerebrovascular diseases and healthy subjects for routine physical examination in the General Hospital of Jinan Military Area Command of Chinese PLA between August 2001 and October 2003, including 35 cases of VaD, 36 CI cases and 40 healthy controls.METHODS: Four milliliters of venous blood was collected from the elbow vein form all participants after fasting for 12 hours for detection of apolipoprotein E genotype using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). Blood lipids and apolipoprotein contents were also examined.of triglyceride, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), as well as apolipoprotein A and aoplipoprotein B.RESULTS: Data of 35 VaD 36 CI patients and 40 healthy controls were all VaD group and CI group had higher ε4 allele frequency were higher (22.86% and 22.22% vs 7.5%, respectively, P < 0.05) but lower ε3 allele frequency (70% and 69.45% vs 86.25%, respectively, P < 0.05); the frequencies of all alleles were basically comparable between VaD and CI groups er in E ε4 allele carriers [(5.85±L03), (4.73±0.29), (4.96±0.87) mmol/L, respectively] than in E ε2 [(3.91±0.87), (3.12±0.65), (3.06±0.33) mmol/L] and ε3 [(1.34±0.21), (1.00±0.28), (0.94±0.32) g/L] allele carriers in VaD group (P < 0.05).CONCLUSION: Apolipoprotein E gene polymorphism is closely associated with the onset of VaD, for which ε4 allele might be a risk factor with similar impact in CI.

Purpose: To evaluate the influence of lung corrections on the target volume dose in radiation treatment of esophageal carcinoma by TPS HEVAPLAN. Materials and Methods: Three radiation field technique to middle esophagus were used as the model of this investigation .target volume doses were calculated with photons in different energies to compare with the divergence when the lung density were set to 1.0(without lung correction) 0.33 and 0.2 (with lung correction).Results: If no lung correction was performed, the actual radiation dose in target volume were 24%~28%, 18%~21%, 13%~15% and 7%~9% which were radiated with 60 Co, X-ray of 5MV, 8MV and 19MV. Conclusion: The lung density must be corrected in treating 60 Co unit.

5 ml groups were 95.5% and 81.1% respectively. This difference was statistically significant (P5 ml groups were 4.5 % and 32.1%, respectively (P50 Gy was increased statistically, but the occurrence of complications was also increased. Conclusions Stereotactic radiosurgery improves the outcome of the elderly patients with brain metastases. Radiation dosage and tumor volume are significantly related with the therapeutic efficacy and the occurrence of complications.

Objective To investigate the correlation of blood glucose,blood pressure and body weight with pancreatic cancer.Methods From January 2011 to December 2013,110 patients diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in our hospital were selected as the observation group and 110 agematched cases without cancer during the same period were selected as the control group.The percentages of patients with diabetes,hypertension and elevated body mass index (BMI) were analyzed in both groups.Results The number of patients with diabetes was higher in the observation group than in the control group (32 cases or 29.1% vs.16 cases or 14.6%,P<0.05).The proportions of pancreatic cancer patients with diabetes duration ≤ 2 years,2~5 years and 5~10 years were higher in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05).The proportion of subjects with increased BMI was higher in the observation group than in the control group (24.6% or 27cases vs.10.9% or 12 cases,P<0.05).The proportions of patients with diabetes combined with increased BMI and of patients with hypertension and increased BMI were higher in the observation group than in the control group (17.3% or 19 cases vs.2.7% or 3 cases,10.9% or 12 cases vs.2.7% or 3 cases,respectively,P< 0.05 for both).Conclusions Diabetes,hypertension,and elevated BMI can be considered as risk factors for pancreatic cancer,and it is possible that these factors are involved in the development of pancreatic cancer.

Methods Retrieved from Cochrane library, PubMed, CBM, FMJS, VIP, Wangfang database and CNKI ( published until January 2015), randomized controlled trails (RCT)about urinary kallidinogenase combined with sodium ozagrel for treatment of CI were included,then methodological quality were evaluated and statistical analysis of those studies were carried out by Rev Man 5.3.4 software. Results 19 RCTs were included,involving 1 747 patients. Results of Meta-analysis showed that urinary kallidinogenase combined with sodium ozagrel could significantly improve total effective rate[RR= 1.18, 95%CI(1.13, 1.23), Z= 7.97, P<0.000 01], cure rate[RR = 1.42, 95%CI(1.23, 1.64), Z= 4.86, P<0.000 1], neurological deficit scores[MD= -4.40, 95%CI(-5.36, -3.43), Z= 8.90,P<0. 000 01] and activity of daily living scores[MD = 19.14, 95%CI(17.39, 20.90), Z = 21.36, P<0.000 01]. Conclusion Urinary kallidinogenase combined with sodium ozagrel was effective in the treatment of CI, and no significant adverse reactions were observed. The combination therapy was worthy of clinical application.
