Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET/CT in the localization of ectopic adrenocorticotrophic hormone ( ACTH)-secreting tumors. Methods Seven patients with ectopic ACTH syndrome (confirmed by clinical symptom, biochemical data or bilateral simultaneous inferior petrosal sinus sampling) were included, 4 males and 3 females with age ranged 27-63 years old.All patients were examined with head MR, chest and abdomen CT, abdomen ultrasonography, and whole body 18F-FDG PET/CT. Location, size, and the maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) of the tumor were measured. Results 18 F-FDG PET/CT detected three ectopic ACTH-secreting tumors with the sizes 1. 1 cm×1.0 cm (SUVmax =9.4), 1.5 cm×1.1cm (SUVmax =6.4), and 1.6 cm ×1.5 cm (SUVmax =12.0). The pathological findings of the three tumors were thymoma, lung carcinoid, and mediastinal carcinoid respectively. Conclusion 18 F-FDG PET/CT may help the localization of ecto pic ACTH-secreting tumors .

Objective To evaluate the effective treatment for and prevention of complications. Methods The diagnosis and treatment of 32 patients with acute arterial ischemia of the lower extremity were analyzed (retrospectively). 4 cases were treated with thrombolytic therapy, 28 cases underwent emergency operation, of which 3 cases underwent amputation after embolectomy, and 25 cases were treated by arteriotomy of femoral artery and embolectomy with Fogarty catheter(7 cases underwent concomitant arterioplasty).Results One (patient) in the nonoperative group died; but there was no mortality in the operated group. Limb amputation was done in 3 cases, and limbs were saved in 28 cases. Conclusions For acute arterial ischemia of the lower (extremity), emergency arteriotomy of femoral artery plus embolectomy is the treatment of choice. This (therapeutic) approach can lower mortality and limb amputation rate.

Objective: To evaluate the effect and safety of neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with PA-MSHA injection for breast cancer patients. Methods: An open randomized controlled clinical trial was con-ducted. Fourty patients with breast cancer were randomly assigned to neoadjuvant chemotherapy group (the control group, n=20) and neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with PA-MSHA injection group (the experi-ment group, n=20). The evaluation of therapeutic effect was carried out when the treatment was completed. Kamofsky score was recorded before and after therapy. Venous blood was drawn before and after therapy and immune function (IFN-γ, IL-2, IL-4, and IL-10) and other indicators (Caspase-3, VEGF, MMP-2 and MMP-9) were measured by double antibody ELISA test. Adverse effects of PA-MSHA during therapy were ob-served and recorded. Results: The overall response rate (RR) in the experiment group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.05). No significant difference was found in the pathologic complete remis-sion (pCR) between the experiment group and the control group (P>0.05). In the experimental group, pCR was significantly different before and after therapy (P<0.01). The score in the experimental group was signifi-cantly higher than that in the control group after therapy (P<0.01). With the treatment of chemotherapy and PA-MSHA injection, IFN-γ and IL-2 levels were significantly higher while IL-4 and IL-10 levels were significant-ly lower in the experiment group (P<0.05). A significant increase in serum Caspase-3 and a significant de-crease in serum VEGF, MMP-2 and MMP-9 (P<0.05) after therapy were also observed in the experimental group. The level of serum MMP-9 was decreased significantly (P=<0.05) after therapy in the control group. Con-clusion: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with PA-MSHA injection can significantly improve the RR of breast cancer patients, enhance their cellular immune function, induce the apoptosis and restrain the metasta-sis of breast cancer cells. The PA-MSHA has been proved to be an ideal supplementary therapy for breast cancer.

Contents in orthopaedic are independent relatively and finding out the internal relations during them is helpful to improving the effect of orthopaedic teaching.Transfer theory is important tools for clinical teaching practice,and finding out the common characteristics between the orthopaedic chapters is primary for the theory.This research focuses on the following fields:fractures,nerve injury,infection,tumor and deformity.After the common characteristics between these chapters were analyzed and discussed,we concluded that the transfer theory is helpful in orthopaedic teaching practice,especially for students' comprehension and memory,but still we should avoid some negative effects in teaching process.

This paper was aimed to study the method of rapid determination of total flavonoids in Chrysanthemum of different processing methods by near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). The Chrysanthemum was dried by three different processes. The three methods were directly drying, drying after steamed and drying after fry, respectively. The determination of total flavonoids in Chrysanthemum by different processing methods was produced by using UV-Vis spectrophotometry. Collecting the NIRS spectra of Chrysanthemum, the quantitative analysis model of total flavonoids content in Chrysanthemum of different processing methods was established by partial least square (PLS) and the model was validated. The correlation coefficient (R2), the root-mean-square error of calibration (RMSEC) and the root-mean-square error of prediction (RMSEP) were 0.996 19, 0.104 and 0.168, respectively. The correlation coefficient of predication (r) was 0.979 3 which state that the prediction was accurate. The method of NIRS had the advantage of fast determination, simple operation and high accuracy of prediction, and could be used for rapid determination of total flavonoids content in Chrysanthemum of different processing methods.
