Objective To evaluate the clinical role of F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-positron emission tomography (PET) for the diagnosis and staging of prostate cancer.Methods 18F-FDG PET/CT and 99Tcm-MDP ECT whole body bone scan were both performed in 40 patients with prostate cancer proved by biopsy or surgery.We then evaluated the diagnostic value of 18F-FDG PET/CT for prostate cancer.Results Of 40 cases,17 cases were detected by 18 F-FDG PET/CT with a sensitivity of 42.5％.Of the 17 cases with lymphoma metastasis,8 cases were detected by CT while 15 cases were detected by 18F-FDG PET/CT.The sensitivity of 18F-FDG PET/CT is 88.2％.Though 18F-FDG PET/CT and 99Tcm-MDP bone scan have a similar sensitivity in detecting bone metastases,18 F-FDG PET/CT has better specificity and accuracy in detecting bone metastases than that of an 99Tcm-MDP bone scan.Conclusions Though the diagnostic value of 18F-FDG PET/CT in detecting primary focus of prostate is limited,it still has an important role in detecting lymph node metastases and bone metastases.18F-FDG PET/CT has its superiority in prostate cancer staging.It can also help clinicians to select the regimen of treatment.

Objective To investigate the effects of rosiglitazone on proangiogenesis function of human umbilical vein endothelial cells ( HUVEC) in high glucose environment. Methods HUVECs were cultured in high glucose environment and stimulated by rosiglitazone. MTT, cell scratch test and Transwell assay were used to detect HUVEC proliferation and migration. The concentration of VEGF, SDF-1 was also detected in the supernatant. Results Rosiglitazone could effectively promote HUVEC proliferation and migration. The concentration of VEGF and SDF-1 in rosiglitazone stimulated supernatant was higher than that in high glucose group. The inhibition of AKT signal could block the promotion of rosiglitazone on the HUVEC proliferation, migration and secretion. Conclusion Rosiglitazone could significantly promote HUVEC secretion, proliferation and migration in high glucose environment. AKT signal played an important role in this process.

Abstract: Objective To analyze the changes of coagulation indicators in patients with hepatitis B complicated with Clonorchis sinensis (C. Sinensis), and provide reference value for diagnosis, drug using and prognosis monitoring. Methods　The patient samples were collected from the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from June 2018 to February 2022 and divided into six groups. They were 40 healthy patients, 47 patients with simple chronic hepatitis B, 47 patients with post-hepatitis B liver cirrhosis, 40 patients with C. Sinensis mono-infection, 30 patients with chronic hepatitis B patients co-infected with C. Sinensis and 27 patients with post-hepatitis B liver cirrhosis patients coinfected with C. Sinensis. Four coagulation indexes, prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), thrombin time (TT) and fibrinogen (FIB), were detected and compared among the groups. Results Compared with the healthy group, C. Sinensis mono-infection group had higher level of FIB and delayed PT, APTT; chronic hepatitis B group and chronic hepatitis B patients co-infected with C. Sinensis group had delayed PT, APTT, TT and significant lower FIB, these differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Compared with simple chronic hepatitis B group, post-hepatitis B liver cirrhosis and chronic hepatitis B patients co-infected with C. Sinensis had significant delayed PT, APTT, TT and lower FIB (all P<0.05). Compared with the post-hepatitis B liver cirrhosis and chronic hepatitis B patients co-infected with C. Sinensis, post-hepatitis B liver cirrhosis patients coinfected with C. Sinensis group had significant delayed PT, APTT, TT and lower FIB (all P<0.05). Conclusions The coinfection of C. Sinensis will further aggravate the coagulation dysfunction of HBV patients, leading to poor treatment and prognosis. HBV patients will have worse coagulation function in the process to post-hepatitis B liver cirrhosis; Therefore, it is important to pay attention to C. Sinensis co-infection when treating HBV patients, so that further guidance on clinical use and monitoring of prognosis can be provided.

Objective:To investigate the expression of miR-151a-3p in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of children with lupus nephritis (LN) and its correlation with activity and vascular damage.Methods:A total of 87 children with LN admitted in Hainan Women and Children′s Medical Center from January 2016 to March 2019 were enrolled, including 16 cases of type Ⅱ, 14 cases of type Ⅲ, 34 cases of type Ⅳ, 17 cases of type Ⅴ and 6 cases of type Ⅵ.Besides, additional 40 children with normal physical examination were selected as the healthy control group.The 87 children with LN were divided into the LN stable group (31 cases) and LN active group (56 cases) by using systemic lupus erythematosus disease activity index (SLEDAI) scores.According to different proportions of the medium membrane, the patients were classified into the mild group (25 cases), moderate group (34 cases) and severe group (28 cases). Real time quantitative PCR (qPCR) was used to detect the expression level of miR-151a-3p in PBMCs of each group.The correlation of the expression level of miR-151a-3p in PBMCs of LN children with the SLEDAI score and renal interstitial damage score was studied by Pearson correlation analysis. Results:The expression levels of miR-151a-3p in the LN group, LN active group and LN stable group (0.47 ± 0.06, 0.30 ± 0.04, and 0.75±0.12, respectively) were significantly lower than that in the healthy control group (1.62±0.35) (all P<0.01), and the expression level of miR-151a-3p in the LN active group (0.30±0.04) was significantly lower than that in the LN stable group (0.75±0.12) ( P< 0.01). The SLEDAI score [(14.35±4.60) points vs.(8.25±2.24) points] and renal interstitial damage score [(52.70±6.30) points vs.(34.80±4.10) points] in the LN active group were significantly higher than those in the LN stable group (all P<0.01). The expression levels of miR-151a-3p (0.18±0.02, 0.41±0.05 vs.0.83±0.16) in type Ⅴ-Ⅵ and type Ⅳ groups were significantly lower than that in the type Ⅱ-Ⅲ group (all P<0.01). The SLEDAI scores [(16.50±5.28) points, (12.36±3.74) points vs.(6.40±1.70) points] and renal interstitial damage scores [(62.70±7.40) points, (47.20±5.80) points vs.(25.80±3.50) points] in type Ⅴ-Ⅵ and type Ⅳ groups were significantly higher than those in the type Ⅱ-Ⅲ group (all P< 0.01). The expression levels of miR-151a-3p (0.20±0.02, 0.39±0.04, 0.86±0.18 vs.1.62±0.35) in severe, moderate and mild groups were significantly lower than that in the healthy control group (all P<0.01), and the expression level of miR-151a-3p decreased with the aggravation of vascular damage.The SLEDAI scores [(15.20±5.10) points, (12.85±3.90) points vs.(6.70±1.82) points] and renal interstitial damage scores [(57.30±6.80) points, (51.60±6.30) points vs.(27.20±3.60) points] in the severe and moderate groups were significantly higher than those in the mild group (all P<0.01). The expression level of miR-151a-3p in LN children was negatively correlated with the SLEDAI score and renal interstitial damage score ( r=-0.682, -0.627, all P<0.001). Conclusions:The expression level of miR-151a-3p in PBMCs of LN children is significantly decreased.The declined miR-151a-3p level is closely related to disease activity and vascular damage, and may be involved in the occurrence and development of LN.

Objective To explore the effects of 2,3,5,4'-tetrahydroxy stilbene-2-β-D-glycoside(TSG)on the over-expression and aggregation of α-synuclein in vitro.Methods TSG in different concentrations was incubated with α-synuclein transgenic COS-7 cells for 24 h.The cell viability was measured by MTT method.The expression of α-synuclein protein was determined by immunocytochemistry and Western blotting method.Results Incubation of TSG at the range of 12.5～200.0 μmol/L with α-synuclein transgenic COS-7 cells for 24 h did not influence cell viability,but a dose-dependently inhibition for the over-expression of α-synuclein protein could be observed in the tests of immunocytochemistry and Western blotting.Conclusion TSG can inhibit the over-expression of α-synuclein protein in COS-7 cells in vitro.

Objective To investigate the effect of combination of ganglioside and hyperbaric oxygen on spastic cerebral palsy. Methods 128 infants with spastic cerebral palsy were divided into treatment group (n=70) and control group (n=58), who received ganglioside and hyperbaric oxygen or cytidine diphosphate choline. The infants in the treatment group were divided into young group (6～12 months, n=38) and old group (1～3 years, n=32) according to their age. They were assessed with Ashworth scale and Functional Independence Measure (FIM) before and 3 courses after treatment. Results The scores of Ashworth scale and FIM improved more in the treatment group than in the control group (P<0.01) after treatment, as well as in the young group than in the old group (P<0.01). Conclusion The combination of ganglioside and hyperbaric oxygen is effective on spasticity and activities of daily living in infants with spastic cerebral palsy. The younger the infants are, the more effective it is.

Objectives To investigate the clinical features of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) in children from Shen-zhen. Methods The clinical manifestations, results of electrophysiological tests and prognosis of 28 GBS patients from July 2002 to July 2012 were retrospectively analysed. Results Of 28 children, 16(57.1%) had preceding acute upper respiratory infection for 3-14 days but no patient had acute gastroenteritis. One had received HBV vaccination in 2 weeks before the onset of GBS. The peak season for GBS is spring. According to the clinical presentations and the neurophysiological results 17 patients had demyelinating neuropathy, 5 acute motor axonal neuropathy, 2 acute motor sensory axonal neuropathy, 3 Miller-fisher syndrome, and 1 polyneuritis cranialis. 14 (50.0%) patients suffered from pain in limbs which is the most nota-ble symptom in the early stage. Intravenous immune globulin (IVIG) and steroids were given during the acute phases in the majority of the patients, and assisted ventilation was performed in 2 patients due to respiratory muscle paralysis. No diffe-rence was found in Hughes scores, average hospitalization durations, and the prognosis between patients with GBS variants patients and patients with classic GBS. Conclusions Children with GBS in Shenzhen area have different clinical features.
