Objective To analyze the CT and MRI features of giant cell tumors of the skull. Methods 8 cases of giant cell tumors of the skull proven surgically and pathologically were analyzed retrospectively. CT and MRI(6 cases with post contrast CT and 5 cases with post contrast MRI scans)were performed in all cases. All tumors were excised surgically. Two weeks later,all patients undertook postoperative radiotherapy with the dosage of 4 500-6 000 cGy for five to six weeks. Results CT scan showed bone destruction and calcification. Most of the tumours were well defined with low signal intensities on T1 WI images, T2 WI images showed ununiformity signal. The low signal on T1 WI was still low signal intensity on T2 WI which suggested calcification. All patients had no distinctive change within the follow up period. Conclusion CT is able to clearly show bone destruction and calcification. MRI is superior to CT in demonstrating the outlines of the tumours. CT and MRI are effective methods in the diagnosis of the giant cell tumors. Surgery and postoperative radiotherapy are effective methods in the treatment of the giant cell tumors.

Objective To explore the technique and the clinical value of Neuroform stents in combination with Guglielmi detachable coil(GDC) to treat wide-necked basilar artery aneurysms.Methods 30 cases with wide-necked basilar artery aneurysms were treated with Neuroform stent combined with GDC.Of 30 wide-necked basilar artery aneurysms,the location of lesions was at basilar tip in 16,basilar trunk in 9 and the beginning of the basilar in 5.Results In 30 cases,total occlusion was achieved in 25 and partial occlusion in 5 patients.The thrombosis within stent occurred in 2 patinets,and remainder of patients recovered well.There were no thromboembolic events in 20 cases followed up for 3~6 months.Twenty-two patients were angiographically followed up for 3 months after the procedure,among them,the aneurysms visualized and the arteriae burdened aneurysms were passed free in densely packed and 3 aneurysms with neck remnant.Conclusion The Neuroform stent is a easy and safe intracranial stent for embo1ization of wide-necked intracranial aneurysms,especially suitable for wide-necked basilar artery aneurysms with severely tortuous intracranial artery.

Objective To study the express of matrix metalloproteinase(MMP)-2 and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase(TIMP)-2 protein in human endometrial carcinoma. Methods The Immunohistochemistry was used to measure the MMP-2, TIMP-2 in endometrial carcinoma tissue of 40 patients, the atypical hyperplasia of 12 samples and the normal endometrium of 12 samples. Results The positive express of MMP-2 and TIMP-2 in the normal endometrium , atypical hyperplasia and endometrial carcinoma was increased gradually. In endometrial carcinoma, with progression of clinical stage and decrease of histological grade as well as deepening of cancer invasion, the ratio of MMP-2/TIMP-2 was increased. Conclusions The expression of MMP-2 and TIMP-2 were connected with endometrial carcinoma. The imbalance of MMP-2/TIMP-2 in the endometrial cancer might be one of the pathogenesis and development.

Aim To investigate and evaluate the effect of ligustrazine on the expression of scavenger receptor type AI, the human ?-interferon activation site (GAS) elements regulatory systems of SR-AI expression wasfirst established in the Xenopus oocytes. Methods A plasmid, in which the human SR-AI gene was constructed downstream from the GAS elements, was microinjected into the nucleus of Xenopus oocytes. The oocytes then were cultured in the smooth muscle cell conditioned medium (SCM), In which the cell were cultured with the treatment of oxLDL for 2 days. In the other groups, the oocytes were treated with SCM containing the nature medicines ligustrazine, and the positive control drug ?-interferon respectively. Results The results demonstrated that SCM could upregulate the expression of SR-AI in this system, this action was suppressed by ligustrazine and ?-interferon. Conclusion Similar to the action of ?-interferon, ligustrazine can prevent the over-expression of SR-A induced by oxLDL, via their effect on the GAS elements regulatory pathway.

AIM: To compare the measurement of anterior chamber depth(ACD) inclusive of corneal thickness using intrao-cular lens(IOL) master and ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) and evaluate the repeatability of each method.METHODS: Two consecutive measurements of ACD were prospectively performed using IOL master and UBM in 60 eyes in 60 individuals. Mean values were compared using the paired t test. For each individual, ACD measure-ments was performed 5 times to estimate the repeatability of each method by a coefficient of variation(CV).RESULTS: The mean ACD was 2.95±0.25mm with the IOL master and 2.96±0.22mm with the UBM. This diffe-rence was not statistically significant (P=0.631).The coefficient of variation (CV) was 0.56%±0.26% and 0.65%± 0.36% in IOL master and UBM, respectively.CONCLUSION: The mean ACD of IOL master was the same as UBM. The repeatability of IOL master is better than UBM.

To assess the impact of the operational simulation training system on the cultivation of ophthalmic students.
●METHODS: Four hundred and eighty ophthalmic students in China Medical University from 2009 to 2011 were chosen as objects and divided into two groups at random. The students in the experimental group used operation simulation training system combined with traditional teaching methods, while the students in the control group only used traditional teaching methods. We examined the operation skills and the confidence of all the students half a year later.
●RESULTS: The improvement of the operation skills during the suture technique examination, and the confidence for operation technology were significantly different in two groups. The basic skills of the students in the examination groups improved apparently during the operational simulation training and they were full of confidence to their operational technique.
●CONCLUSlON: The operational simulation training is useful for promoting the clinical ability for ophthalmic students and should be widely popularized.

BackgroundRetinitis pigmentosa (RP) has the genetic and phenotype heterogeneity.To determine the disease-causing gene is a foundation of gene therapy.Objective This study was to localize the pathogenic gene and screen the gene mutation associated with Han Nationality autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (ADRP) in a Chinese family.MethodsTwenty-one families enrolled this study,including 12 patients with ADRP and 9 individuals with normal phenotype.Perimetry,fundus examination,electrooculogram ( EOG ) and electroretinogram (ERG) were performed in 12 patients.Genetic linkage analysis was performed on the subjects in all known genetic loci related to ADRP with a panel of microsatellite markers.Subsequently,the mutation screening of rhodopsin gene was screened by direct DNA sequencing.This study was approved by Ethic Committee of Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University.Informed consent was obtained from each subject.ResultsThe fundus appearance of the proband was in accordance with the ADRP,and the EOG and ERG showed undetectable.Contractive visual field also was exhibited in the proband.Linkage analysis showed that the maximum logarithm of the odds(LOD) score reached 3.6671 at marker D3S1292 at recombination fraction θ =0.0.The results of direct DNA sequencing revealed a C→ G transversion mutation at codon 53 in exon 1 of rhodopsin gene,which resulted in a proline to arginine change (Pro53Arg) in 12 patients.However,no similar mutation was found in the unaffected members of this family.ConclusionsThe missence mutation Pro53Arg in rhodopsin gene cosegregate with the RP disease.It is determined to be a pathogenic factor of this ADRP family.
