Objective To evaluate the clinical value of using three-dimensional reconstruction and incising software in facial fracture. Methods Twenty-nine patients of facial fracture were examined with spiral CT first and then the images were taken with three-dimensional reconstruction and incising software on work-station. 2D images, 3D images and incising images were evaluated. Results BZ 3D images were superior to 2D images in demonstrating the space relationship of facial fractures, such as the fracture location, range, fragments displacement. However 2D images were better in illustrating deep structure; The 3D images could illustrate deep structure as well as 2D images when combined with incising software. Conclusion 3D images can provide information of space relationship in assessing facial fracture. The range can be extended combining with the incising software, and do better for illustrating deep struction.

Clinical tutor system is a unique exploration and practice with characteristics of our school,which has been carried out in the process of clinical course learning and clinical practice among eight-year-program clinical majors.Through analyzing and summarizing the implementation among 2005 and 2006 grade students,we found that the clinical tutor played an active role in cultivating students' clinical thoughts and personal ethics and in improving clinical ability and scientific ability.However,some problem were existed in tutors themselves-specialized major,busy,unclear cultivation objective,etc.Therefore,further improvement of the system was needed in order to better meet the needs of the eight-year-program medical talent training and to provide related references.

Objective To study the effects of cultivation methods on growth dynamics in the aerial part and root of Angelica sinensis and Ditylenchus destructor, rate of early bolting, and yield of A. sinensis as well. Methods Compared with conventional planting, ridge planting, furrow planting, white plastic mulch coverage, and black plastic mulch coverage were used to evaluate the effects of cultivation methods on dry matter accumulating and growth dynamics of A. sinensis. Results The influence of black plastic mulch coverage to growth dynamics of A. sinensis is the biggest, next for white plastic mulch coverage. There is the best inhibition to D. destructor under ridge planting. Black plastic mulch coverage can enhance the rate of early bolting. The treatment of black plastic mulch coverage has the highest yield, which can increase the yield by 33.4% (4 650 kg/hm2) compared to conventional planting; next for the treatment of white plastic mulch coverage, which increased the yield by 24.3% (3 372.2 kg/hm2) compared to conventional planting. But there were no significant effects of ridge planting and furrow planting on increasing yield. Conclusion The cultivation methods of black plastic mulch coverage should be brought into wide use in A. sinensis cultivation.

Objective To construct the RNAi eukaryotic vector of inhibitory member of the ASPP family(iASPP) gene and observe the interfering effect in Jurkat cell line after the vector transfection.Methods The specific siRNA sequence was designed according to the iASPP sequence in GenBank.The sequence was cloned into PGCsilencer~(TM) H1/Neo/GFP and then sequence analysis was performed.The recombinant plasmid was transfected into Jurkat cell by liposome.The iASPP expression was analyzed by RT-PCR and cell apoptosis was detected by FCM.Results The sequence of templet and specific siRNA was correct by sequence analysis.The iASPP expression in Jurkat cells decreased and the apoptosis rate increased from 11.81% to 33.15% after RNAi transfection.Conclusion The RNAi eukaryotic vector PGCsilencer~(TM)H1/Neo/GFP/RNAi was constructed successfully.The RNAi inhibitory effect on the Jurkat cells is confirmed.The successful construction of iASPP RNAi makes it possible to further study the interaction between iASPP and p53.

Objective To evaluate the effect of carbon fiber couch on dose distribution of radiotherapy planning and verification pass rate.Methods Establishing the carbon fiber treatment couch model in Pinnacle8.0m Treatment Planning system (TPS),and then this model was used to correct dose calculations of oblique fields in the treatment plans of 10 cases of nasopharyngeal carcinoma,10 cases of breast cancer and 10 cases of lung cancer and evaluate the effect of carbon fiber couch on the whole dose distribution of the plans.Then these plans were measured by three-dimensional dose verification equipment Delta4 to confirm the improvement extent of Gamma pass rate after considering the carbon fiber treatment couch.Results For the majority of plans,when the carbon fiber couch was taken into consideration,the target doses was significantly reduced (4772 cGy-7266 cGy vs.4859 cGy-7347 cGy,P=0.000-0.002) and the relative deviation of D95 was 1% to 3%.Measurement results of Delta4 showed that Gamma pass rate (3 mm/3% criteria) increased in all plans (96.4%-98.8% vs.93.4%-97.3%,P =0.000),some of that were up to 5 percentage when the couch model was applied.Conclusions Target doses will be overestimated if the treatment couch is ignored in TPS measurement.,However it should arouse enough attention when the disease with smaller doses corresponding gradient.

Objective To investigate the regulation of CCL22/CCR4 signaling on CD4 + CD25 + regulatory T cells (Tregs) and immune escape in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods CCL22,interleukin-2 (IL-2),transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β),and interleukin-10 (IL-10) levels in tumor tissue of 30 HCC patients were determined by ELISA.Tumor infiltrating lymphocytes were isolated and assayed by flow cytometry to evaluate the change of CD4 + CD25 + Tregs in tumor tissue,and CCR4 in CD4 + CD25 +Tregs were detected.Results The CCL22 level in tumor tissue was obviously increased.The level of CCL22 in tumor tissue was (920.1-± 180.1)ng/L,which was significantly higher than that in non-tumor tissue [(227.2 ± 108.6) ng/L; P < 0.05].The tumor infiltrating CD4 + CD25 + Tregs was obviously increased,reaching approximately to (13.3 ±4.0)%,and the CCR4 expression in CD4+ CD25 + Tregs increased to (8.8 ± 3.0) %.Along with progression in clinical TNM staging,the levels of CD4 + CD25 + Tregs and CD4 + CD25 + CCR4 + Tregs in tumor tissue increased,and were correlated with the CCL22 level.IL-2 level in tumor tissue was decreased,but TGF-β and IL-10 levels were increased.HCC tissue can secrete a large amount of CCL22 that could recruit CD4 + CD25 + Tregs to tumor tissue by activating CCL22/CCR4 signaling.CD4 + CD25 + Tregs played an important role in the immune escape of HCC by releasing plenty of TGF-β and IL-10 and inhibiting IL-2 secretion.Conclusion This study validates CCL22/CCR4 as therapeutic targets in immunotherapy for HCC.
