Objective To report the preliminary results of drug eluting stents (DES) in infrapopliteal bifurcation lesions after failed angioplasty.Methods From April 2011 to December 2013, 21 patients with critical limb ischemia and infrapopliteal atherosclerotic disease underwent DES placement in tibial bifurcation using 4 techniques: balloon and stent (single stent), T-shape double-stent, Crush double-stent and Culotte double-stent.Clinical and angiographic end points included: Amputation-free survival, target lesion revascularization (TLR)-free survival, target vessel revascularization (TVR)-free survival.Angiographic primary and secondary patency of DES, 2-vessel primary patency (2VPP), and 1-vessel primary patency (1VPP).Results Technical success was achieved in all patients (100％) without major intraoperative complications.ABI increased from 0.23 ± 0.07 to 0.67 ± 0.24 (P ＜ 0.05) after 1 week.The mean follow-up intervals were 23 ± 7 months;amputation-free survival, TLR-free survival and TVR-free survival were 100％, 90.5％ and 79.1％, respectively, at 1 year.8 patients underwent angiography reevaluation.The angiographic primary and secondary patency of DES were 62.5％, 87.5％, respectively.The primary patency of 2VVP and 1VVP were 28.6％, 57.1％, respectively at 1 year.Conclusions Bifurcation stenting techniques utilized in coronary arteries can be used in the infrapopliteal arteries.Although provisional stenting in the origin of tibial bifurcation cannot inhibit restenosis in distal lesions treated with balloon angioplasty, clinical outcomes and limb salvage rates are acceptable for these techniques.

Objective To analyze the left ventricular(LV) rotation and twist by two-dimensional ultrasound speckle-tracking imaging(STI),and evaluate the correlation between twist and other components of LV contraction in uremia patients. Methods Twenty-nine uremia patients and twenty-nine healthy volunteers were included. High frame rate two-dimensional images were recorded from the left ventricular short-axis views both of the basal and apical planes. Segmental and global LV rotation were recorded at both The peak systolic LV twist was significantly decreased in uremia patients(P <0. 001). The loss of LV twist occurred mainly by the impairment of maximal global counterclockwise apical rotation(P <0. 001),and was augmented by somewhat less reduction in global clockwise basal rotation although the differences was not significantly reduced(P<0.01), while only the posterior and inferior of the basal plane was significantly fraction(r=0.645,P=0.000), LV end-diastolic volume (r=-0.549,P=0.002), LV end-systolic volume(r=-0.673, P = 0.000) in uremia patients. Conclusions STI enables quantification of segmental and global LV rotation in an objective manner in uremia patients,and provides a new method for evaluation of segmental and global LV systolic function.

Objective:To observe the effect of Governor Vessel-unblocking and mind-refreshing acupuncture plus functional training on neural development in infants with brain damage and seek an effective method for early intervention of infantile brain damage.Methods:Eighty infants with brain injury were recruited and allocated to a treatment group and a control group by their visiting sequence,with 40 cases in each group.The control group received exercise training,40 min each session and 6 sessions a week,and tuina treatment,30 min each time and 6 times a week.Based on the treatment protocol for the control group,the treatment group additionally received Governor Vessel-unblocking and mind-refreshing acupuncture,3 times a week and 10 sessions as a course at a 2-week interval.Before the treatment and after 14-week treatment,the gross motor function measure (GMFM) and developmental quotient (DQ) of Bejing Gesell developmental scale were used to evaluate the development of the infants.Results:After the treatment,the GMFM score and DQs of Gesell scale all increased by different levels in the two groups,and the intra-group differences were statistically significant (all P＜0.05);the scores of the treatment group were superior to those of the control group,and the between-group differences were statistically significant (all P＜0.05).Conclusion:Governor Vessel-unblocking and mind-refreshing acupuncture plus functional training can significantly promote the development of gross motor and cognitive functions in infants with brain damage,and it is an early and effective intervention for infantile brain damage.

OBJECTIVETo identify the phenotype and gene mutation in two Chinese pedigrees with hereditary protein C deficiency.

METHODSThe plasma level of protein C activity (PC: A) , protein C antigen (PC: Ag), protein S activity (PS: A), and antithrombin activity (AT: A) of the probands and their family members were detected using chromogenic assay and ELISA, respectively. All of the nine exons and intron-exon boundaries of protein C gene were amplified by PCR and analyzed by direct sequencing of the probands. Restriction enzyme site analysis was used to confirm the mutation.

RESULTSThe plasma PC: A and PC: Ag for proband 1 was 1.2% and 0, respectively. Compound heterozygous mutations, C(TGC)64W (TGG) and F(TTC) 139V(GTC) , were identified in her, the former being inherited from the maternal side and the later the paternal side. Further genetic analysis showed that her husband ( II 8) had the heterozygous deletion mutation (K150 or 151 Del) in exon 7, her daughter had the same heterozygous deletion mutation and a F139V. The plasma PC: A and PC: Ag for proband 2 was 50. 3% and 1.9 mg/L, respectively. He had the heterozygous Lys150 or Lys151 deletion mutation, which was inherited from his father. Polymorphisms of C/T at position - 1654, A/G at - 1641 , and A/T at - 1476A/T in the promoter region of protein C were confirmed in all members of the two pedigrees, of which, proband 2 had homozygous CC/GG/TT. The F139V mutation was confirmed by restriction enzyme site analysis and polymorphism for this mutation was excluded. PS: A and AT: A were in normal range for all members.

CONCLUSIONCompound heterozygous mutation C64W and F139V of protein C gene lead to type I hereditary protein C deficiency for proband 1. K150 or 151 deletion mutation and polymorphism of CC/GG/TT might lead to type I hereditary protein C deficiency for proband 2. C64W is a novel mutation for protein C gene. F139V and K150 or 151 deletion mutation are reported for the first time in China.

OBJECTIVETo study the clinicopathologic features, diagnosis and differential diagnosis of epithelioid hemangioma.

METHODSThe morphologic features of 7 cases of epithelioid hemangioma of skin, bone and venous vessels were studied.

RESULTSThere were altogether 4 male and 3 female patients (median age = 34 years; age range from 14 to 54 years). The 3 skin cases presented as single or multiple erythematous to bluish nodules or papules, with or without itchiness. The 2 bone cases appeared as osteolytic expansile lesions on radiologic examination. The remaining 2 cases involved medium-sized venous structures and presented as small isolated nodules in soft tissue. Histologically, the lesions were characterized by the presence of exuberant endothelial proliferations with various degree of inflammatory reaction. The neoplastic endothelial cells were plump, eosinophilic and polygonal, forming vascular channels. Occasional solid sheet-like arrangement was demonstrated. Intracytoplasmic vacuoles were commonly identified, indicating formation of primary lumen. The surrounding stroma contained various number of eosinophils and lymphoplasmacytic cells. Immunohistochemical study showed that the tumor cells were positive for endothelial markers (CD31 and CD34) and negative for epithelial marker (cytokeratin). Follow-up information was available in 6 cases. The duration of follow-up ranged from 5 to 36 months (median = 14 months). There was no evidence of recurrence or distant metastasis.

CONCLUSIONSEpithelioid hemangioma is a rare benign curable lesion which can be multifocal, involving skin, soft tissue and bone. It needs to be distinguished from Kimura's disease and epithelioid hemangioendothelioma.

OBJECTIVEThe purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical significance of THY1 protein expression in epithelial ovarian cancer.

METHODSImmunohistochemistry (IHC) and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end-labeling (TUNEL) staining were used to detect the protein expression of THY1, Ki67 and cell apoptosis in 76 epithelial ovarian cancers by tissue microarray. The correlation between THY1 expression and patients' clinical features was analyzed.

RESULTSOf the 76 epithelial ovarian cancer samples, 64 were informative for IHC and TUNEL assays and 42 (65.6%) among them showed down-regulated/loss expression of THY1 protein. A significant positive correlation of THY1 protein expression with clinical stage and distant metastasis was observed in this ovarian cancer cohort (P < 0.05). The more advanced the tumor stage, the more frequency of loss expression of THY1 protein. In addition, the mean positive rate of Ki67 staining in tumors with down-regulated/loss expression of THY1 was 33.7% +/- 3.5%, significantly higher than that in the tumors with normal expression of THY1 (17.3% +/- 6.1%, P = 0.0027). However, no significant correlation was observed between THY1 protein expression and tumor cell apoptosis as well as patients' survival in this series (P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONDown-regulated/loss expression of THY1 protein in epithelial ovarian cancer is significantly correlated with cancer cell proliferation and metastasis in the epithelial ovarian cancer, and it may be used as one of the new molecular biomarkers to predict the disease progression in patients.
