Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of orbital decompression for compressive optic-neuropathy. Methods Fourteen eyes of twelve cases with Graves opthalmopathy and compressive optic-neuropathy undergone two orbital walls decompression with the follow-up period of more than 3 months were analyzed. Results The effect of complete closure of palpebral fissure was attained in all of the postoperative eyes and the visual acuity was increased in eleven eyes, remained no change in two eyes and decreased in one eye. The mean value of the recession of exophthalmic eyes after operation was mean 4 0 mm.

Objective To establish a colony of genetic idiopathic hypercalciuric rats model which can stablely descend and initially explore the mechanism of idiopathic hypercalciuric development. Methods The male and female rats with the highest 24-h urine Ca excretion and normal serum calcium,phosphorus and 1,25(OH)2D3 were chosen for inbreeding to propagate the colony until the stable hypercalcinuria was achieved in filial generation. Immunohistochemical determination (SP method) was undertaken to determine the VDR expression in model rats duodenum. Results The content of two 24 h urine Ca excretion in 93% male and 92% female generation 7 model rats was double standard deviation more than that in the normal group(2.56?0.86 mg/d vs. 1.12?0.18 mg/d,2.86?1.16 mg/d vs. 1.15?0.12 mg/d respectively)(F=27.10,P*0.05). VDR expression was remarkably increased in model rats duodenum(F=14.23,P

Objective: To investigate the expression and prognostic significance of insulin-like growth factor binding protein 5 (IGFBP5) in gastric adenocarcinoma (GAC). Methods:IGFBP5 expression in tissue samples from 236 GAC patients was analyzed us-ing immunohistochemical methods. These patients had undergone surgical resection between 20003 and 2006 in Sun Yat-Sen Universi-ty Cancer Center. The relationship between IGFBP5 expression and clinicopathological factors in the 236 GAC patients was analyzed using Pearson correlation analysis. The significance of IGFBP5 in predicting the survival status of these patients was analyzed using Ka-plan-Meier survival analysis and Cox's proportional hazards regression model. Results:Immunohistochemical staining data indicated that IGFBP5 expression was significantly decreased in 159 of the total GAC cases (67.4%). Of the 62 cases with well-and moderately differentiated GAC, 31 (50%) exhibited reduced IGFBP5 expression. Of the 174 cases with poorly differentiated GAC, 128 showed re-duced IGFBP5 expression. Reduced IGFBP5 expression was also observed in female patients and in patients with tumors over 5 cm in size or with poorly differentiated tumors (P<0.05). The reduced expression of IGFBP5 was common in the tumors that were staged as T3+4a/b andⅢ/Ⅳ(P<0.05). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis revealed that the reduced expression of IGFBP5 was associated with poor prognosis in GAC patients (P<0.001). Cox regression analysis identified IGFBP5 expression as an independent prognostic factor for the overall survival of these cancer patients (HR=1.897, P=0.029). Conclusion: IGFBP5 expression is reduced in GAC tissues, and IGFBP5 independently predicts an unfavorable prognosis in GAC patients.

Objective To investigate meclical ethits level of first-year mecdical stuclents in Guangzhou medical college,which contributes to provide guidance of medical ethics education for interns. Methods To investigate 183 cases of first-year medical students. They were asked to deal with a case of 'a vagrant needed emergency treatment'. The statistics datum were classified according to 'norms of medical ethics and ways of implementation made by the Ministry of Health for medical staff'.Results 99.45% of them thought they should immediately save patients' live;but less than 28.96%thought of using cheap and fine medicines;only 38.80% mentioned the patients' mood. And there was no significant difference between boys and girls(P>0.05). Conclusion Medical students have already established a 'life-saving' awareness when they are freshman, but they also need to learn how to put ethics into practice.

Aryl hydrocarbon receptor ( AhR) is a ligand-depend-ent transcription factor that mediates the toxicity of xenobiotic ligands like 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxins(TCDDs). AhR influences tumor growth, survival, migration and invasion by regulating proliferation, apoptosis and immune metabolism of tumor cells. AhR has two ways to regulate tumor development, and ligands like polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons( PAHs) , hal-ogenated aromatic hydrocarbons( HAHs) can induce tumorigene-sis. However, some compounds such as benzothiazole and amin-oflavone can activate AhR, which suppresses the tumor progres-sion and suggests that AhR may be a novel drug target for anti-tumor therapy. The paper discussed the role of AhR in tumori-genesis, the mechanism of the drugs targetting AhR and the sta-tus of studying AhR as a potential target in anticancer therapy.
