Analysis was made in 3 patients with central nervous system lymphoma(CNSL) with different manifestations;neuroradiological and immunocytological investigations were used to improve the clinical diagnosis of CNSL.Three patients with CNSL presented with 3 distinct profiles:diffuse meningeal invasion, intracranial masses of tumor and intramedullary spinal invasion. Both contrast enhanced CT and MR provided CNSL lesions in the brain parenchyma and meninges. It is suggested that combining CT,MR findings and immunological markers can improve clinical diagnosis of CNSL.

Objective To study features of clinical manifestation,pathology and treatment effects of idiopathic membranous nephropathy(IMN).Methods A retrospective study was performed in patients with membranous nephropathy through renal biopsy diagnosis in Beijing Children's Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from November 2009 to February 2013.Patients were diagnosed according to renal biopsy apart from hepatitis B virus-associated glomerulonephritis,Henoch-Schonlein purpura nephritis,lupus nephritis,tumor and drug associated nephritis.The study summed the clinical and pathological features of IMN and evaluated the effect of treatment according the follow up.Results (1) There were 13 patients,with the ratio of male and female being 1.0 ∶ 1.6,among them 1 patient was younger than 6 years old,3 cases were between 6 and 12 years old,and 9 cases were elder than 12 years old.Nine patients were nephrotic syndrome,and 3 patients had renal insufficiency.(2)Ten patients had infection,among them 5 cases were upper respiratory infection with agent unfound,4 patients were mcoplasma infection,1 patient was influenza B virus infection,1 patient had positive result of Hepatitis B surface antibody(HBsAb) and Hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb),and 2 patients had positive result of purified protein derivative (PPD).(3)Pathological feature of IMN was atypical membranous nephropathy.Atypical membranous nephropathy was characterized by an irregular,thickened glomerular basement membrane(GBM),mesangial cells,and a mesangial matrix with mild to moderate hyperplasia.Immune complexes were stained in the subepithelial region,GBM,and mesangial region under light microscopy.Electron microscopy showed various sizes,density,and shapes of electron-dense deposits in multiple regions.The cases of immunofluorescence were 13 for IgG,10 for C3,9 for IgM,9 for C1q,5 for IgA,2 for C4,and 0 for fibrinogen.Seven patients were strongly positive(3 + and above) for IgG and one patient was strongly positive for C3.(4)Seven patients had complete remission,three patients had partial remission,and three patients had non-remission.Conclusions (1) In this study,children with IMN were mainly girls,and the age distribution was beyond 12 years.Nephrotic syndrome was the most common clinical manifestation.(2)Atypical membranous nephropathy was the most common pathological feature in children with IMN,which should be distinguished from hepatitis B virus-associated glomerulonephritis by testing HBV antigen in renal biopsy.(3) Prednisone was effective for IMN children,but it was suggested to give enough and long course of application.Effect of prednisone combined with cyclophosphamide was still undefined.

Objective:To investigate the influence of chronic periodontitis on the clinic effect of implant restoration.Methods:Fifty-two cases of chronic periodontitis patients with 70 implants and forty-nine cases of periodontally healthy patients with 69 implants admitted into our hospital from July 2013 to June 2016 were named as observation group and control group respectively.The implants survival rates,marginal bone loss (MBL),modified plaque index (mPLI),modified sulcus bleeding index (mSBI),and peri-implant probing pocket depth (PD) as well as IL-1,IL-6 in peri-implant sulcular fluid of the two groups were detected and analyzed after loading of 1,3,6,12 months.Results:After 12 months of loading,no obvious difference was found in the implants survival rate between two groups (P＞0.05).After 1,3 months of loading,no remarkable change was found in mPLI,mSBI,PD,and MBL between two groups(P＞0.05),while mSBI,PD,and MBL in observation group were significantly higher than those of control group except of mPLI after 6 months of loading (P＜0.05).Additionally,after 1,3 months of loading,IL-β in control group was not detected,while IL-β in observation group was conspicuously higher than those of control group after 6 months of loading and IL-6 in observation group was significantly higher than that of control group after 3 months of loading (P＜0.05).Conclusion:Chronic periodontitis could decrease the clinical effect ofim-plant restoration,which was probably due to the occurrence ofperi-implantitis.

Objective:To investigate the curative effect of different restorations for deciduous teeth defect of children.Methods:67 children with teeth defecting seriously and being unable to fill restore were enrolled from January 2011 to January 2015 and randomly divided into three groups,one group of patients accepted metal crown restoration (Group A,n=22),one group adopted ceramic inlay restoration (Group B,n=22),and the last one accepted silver amalgam filling (Group C,n=23),the curative effect and incidence of adverse reactions among three groups in the period follow-up were compared.Results:In the period of 18-month follow-up,6 patients of toothache,5 patients of food impaction and crevices between restorations and teeth,3 cases of gingival congestion,2 cases of secondary caries were observed in group C;3 cases of toothache,1 case of food impaction,gingival congestion,crevices between restorations and teeth and secondary caries were observed in group B;2 cases of toothache and food impaction,1 case of gingival congestion were observed in group A.The incidence of adverse reactions in group A and group B was lower than those in group C (P＜0.05),which was lower in group A than that in group B,but no significant difference was found between group A and group B (P＞0.05).Conclusion:The restoration of metal crown and ceramic inlay deserved popularization had better curative effect and safety for deciduous teeth defect of children than silver amalgam filling.

Objective To investigate the children's body environmental Se and T-2 toxin level in their staple food in Kaschin-Beck disease(KBD)relative active regions in Aba state of Sichuan province in 2008.Methods We took X-ray photograph of the right hand on children aged 7-13 years in 48 villages from 11 counties in Aba state.The relative active regions of KBD were chosen according to the X-ray result and historical status of KBD.The children's urine and hair,drinking water and their staple food werr sampled.Selenium contents in urine,hair,water and food samples were determined by naphthalene fluorescence,and T-2 toxin in staple food samples were detected by ELISA kits.Results In 2145 X-ray films,66 films were positive,and the children's KBD positive rate was 3.08%(66/2145).The KBD positive rate was respectively 10.98%(29/264)and 8.52%(19/223)in Maerkang county,Jinchuan county and it was 0.75%(3/400)in Rangtang county,historically serious endemic area.The selenium content in urine of children aged 7-13 years in Maerkang county,Jinchuan county and Rangtang county was (10.41±4.67), (10.11±3.65), (8.42±2.68)μg/g Cr, respectively, there was no statistical difference among three counties(F=0.901, P>0.05). The selenium content in hair of children aged 7-13 years in Maerkang county[(0.18±0.04)mg/kg] was lower than that in Jinchuan county[(0.21±0.04)mg/kg, P<0.05].The selenium content in water in Jinchuan county [(0.225±0.124 )μg/L ] was lower than that in Maerkang county and Rangtang county[(0.320±0.092), (0.339±0.105)μg/L, all P<0.05]. The selenium content in staple food in Jinchuan county(0.0033 mg/kg) was lower than that in Maerkang county and Rangtang county(0.0258,0.0137mg/kg, Z=-6.146,-3.042, all P<0.017). The T-2 toxin level in flour in three counties was 19.60,17.95,26.25 ng/g,respectively,there was no statistical difference among three counties(X2=5.623, P>0.05).The T-2 toxin level in grain Maerkang county (10.72 ng/g) was higher than that in Jinchuan county and Rangtang county (3.74,3.30 ng/g, Z=-6.315,-4.407,all P<0.017). T-2 toxin contamination in flour was more severe than that in grain (Z=-6.690,-5.493,-3.676, all P<0.05). Conclusions In 3 relative active KBD regions of Aba state,the children's selenium nutritional status and the T-2 toxin contamination level in their staple food is consistent with the distribution of KBD.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of salidroside on hypoxia-induced apoptosis of corpus cavernosum smooth muscle cells (CCSMCs) in rats.

METHODSRat CCSMCs were cultured in vitro by the enzyme digestion method and identified by immunofluorescent staining of anti-alpha-SMA and anti-Desmin. The non-toxic dose of salidroside was determined by MTT assay. Low-oxygen mixed gas (1% O2, 5% CO2, and 94% N2) was piped into a modular incubator chamber to induce hypoxia. The CCSMCs were divided into a normal, a hypoxia, and a 32 microg/mL salidroside intervention group. The apoptosis of the CCSMCs was detected by flow cytometry and the expression of the caspase-3 protein determined by Western blot.

RESULTSThe majority of the CCSMCs were positive for alpha-SMA and Desmin at immunofluorescent staining. Salidroside at < 32 microg/ml produced no obvious toxicity to CCSMCs. Compared with the normal control group, the rates of early and late apoptosis of CCSMCs were both increased significantly in the hypoxia group ([12.77 +/-1.41]% vs [18.69 +/- 1.29]%, P < 0.01 and [14.63 +/- 2.00]% vs [21.03 +/- 1.530]% , P < 0.05). Western blot showed a markedly increased expression of cleaved caspase-3 (P < 0.01). Intervention with 32 microg/ml salidroside significantly reduced hypoxia-induced early apoptosis of CCSMCs ([13.46% +/- 1.87]%, P < 0.01) and decreased the expression of cleaved caspase-3 (P < 0.01).

CONCLUSIONSalidroside can reduce the expression of cleaved caspase-3 and inhibit hypoxia-induced apoptosis of CCSMCs in rats.
