Objective To find the best model parameters through Monte Carlo simulation of 6 MV flattening-filter-free (FFF) beams in TrueBeam accelerator, and establish the foundation for the further study of the clinical dosimetry on 6 MV FFF X-rays.Methods Using the BEAMnrc and DOSXYZnrc codes, the percentage depth dose (PDD) and the off-axis ratio (OAR) curves of field ranges from 4 cm ×4 cm to 40 cm × 40 cm were simulated for 6 MV FFF X-ray by adjusting the incident beam energy, radial intensity distribution and angular spread, respectively.The simulation results and measured data were compared, where the optimal Monte Carlo model input parameters were acquired.Results The simulation was most comparable to the measurement when the incident electron energy, full width at half maximum (FWHM) and the spread angle were set as 6.1 MeV, 0.75 mm and 0.9°, respectively.The deviation of 1 mm (position)/1％ (local dose) could be met by the PDD of all tested field sizes and by the OAR when the fields sizes were no larger than 30 cm ×30 cm.The OAR of 40 cm ×40 cm field sizes fulfilled criteria of 1 mm (position)/1.5％ (local dose).Conclusions Monte Carlo simulation agrees well with the measurement and the proposed model parameters, which can be used for further clinical dosimetry studies of 6 MV FFF X-rays.

Objective To investigate the prognosis of grommet insertions for osecretory otitis media in children and analyze the factors that may influence the results.Methods A retrospective review of 103 children (182 ears) with grommet insertions for osecretory otitis media from January 2011 to December 2011 was performed.They were divided into two groups(A and B) basing on the median age of 6 years old and observed their clinical manifestations,etiology and prognosis through two years' follow-up.The preoperative pure tone audiometry(PTA) hearing threshold,PTA in two weeks after surgery,the proportion of adenoid hypertro phy,the time of tube extrusion,the relapse of osecretory otitis media and repeat operation between two groups were compared.Results The difference of preoperative PTA and post operative PTA were not significant different between two groups(P＞0.05).But post operative PTA was lower than preoperative PTA(P＜0.05).The difference of otitis media recurrence was not significant different between two groups(P=0.088),but adenoid hypertrophy's proportion,tube extrusion's time and relapse were significant different(P＜0.05).Conclusion For school-age children with secretory otitis media need to extend the catheter time to reduce the probability of secondary catheterization.

ObjectiveUsing dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) to evaluate the hemodynamic perfusion characteristics of bone marrow infiltration in patients with acute leukemia (AL). MethodsForty-seven patients with AL received coronal pelvic T1WI DCE-MRI with fast low angle shot (FLASH) sequence. Among them, 25 were initial onset untreated (IOU) patients, 22 were treated AL patients, including 14 with complete remission (CR) and 8 with non-remission ( NR). The hemodynamic perfusion parameters including maximum percentage of enhancement ( Emax ) and slope were determined based on enhancement-time curves ( ETCs ) of iliac and lumbar vertebra. The proportion of marrow myeloblasts was recorded.For all patients, quantitative perfusion parameters of bone marrow infiltration in ilium were compared with those in lumbar. The values of Emax and ES were compared among IOU,CR and NR patients.Correlations between perfusion parameters and histopathological results were assessed. ResultsIn all the 47 patients, the Emax values of bilateral iliac bone marrow ( 15.70 ± 7.06)were slightly higher than that of lumbar bone marrow ( 11. 28 ± 5.52 ), and the difference was statistically significant (P ＜0. 01 ).There was no significant difference in the slop value between bilateral iliac bone marrow (0. 82 ± 0. 12 ) and lumbar bone marrow (0. 80 ± 0. 09 ) ( P ＞ 0. 05 ). In the 25 untreated patients,the Emax and slop values were 17. 15 ± 5.75 and 0. 98 ± 0. 13, respectively; in the 14 CR patients, they were 8. 76 ±3.93 and 0. 26 ± 0. 04, respectively, and in the 8 NR patients, they were 21.62 ± 6. 50 and 1. 38 ± 0. 02, respectively. There was significant difference in the Emax and slop values among the three groups (P＜0. 05).Compared with IOU and NR patients, both the Emax and slop values decreased significantly in iliac bone marrow of AL patients with CR (P ＜ 0. 05 ). There was no significant difference between IOU and NR patients ( P ＞ 0. 05 ). A significant positive correlation was found between Emax value of iliac bone marrow and the proportion of marrow myeloblasts ( r ＝0. 501 ,P ＜0. 05 ). There was a negative correlation between slop value of iliac bone marrow and the proportion of marrow myeloblasts ( r ＝0. 235 ,P ＞0.05).ConclusionsDCE-MRI can beused for evaluating the hemedynamic characteristics of microcirculation of bone marrow infiltration in patients with AL, which can provide useful information in evaluating prognosis and monitoring therapeutic effect.

Objective To evaluate the secondary cancer risk to various organs due to radiation treatment for early left-sided breast cancer using 6 MV X-ray flattening filter free (FFF) and flattening filter (FF) modes.Methods Two techniques,6 MV FFF and 6 MV FF X-rays modes,were used to develop the two tangential fields d-IMRT plans for 20 early left-sided breast cancer patients respectively.For all the patients,the dose to surrounding tissues was minimized as low as possible,the 95％ volume of the planning target volume (PTV) and clinical target volume (CTV) was consistent with the prescribed dose.The beam parameters and the plan optimization parameters of FFF modes were in consonance with FF modes.The radiation doses and volumes of the planning target volumes,organs at risk and normal tissue were detected by dose-volume histogram.And then,the excess absolute risk(EAR) of contralateral breast,ipsilateral lung,contralateral lung,thyroid and liver were calculated using the radiotherapy-induced secondary primary cancer risks models.Results The treatment plans of two groups met the requirements of clinical.The FFF d-IMRT techniques resulted in a systematic reduction of the organ equivalent dose (OED) (t =2.18-9.72,P ＜ 0.05),and the EAR (t =2.11-9.99,P ＜ 0.05) of contralateral breast,ipsilateral lung,contralateral lung,thyroid and liver was compared to the FF IMRT techniques,especially for the contralateral breast.Conclusions Both FFF and FF d-IMRT plans can achieve comparable target dose coverage in patients with early left-sided breast cancer,while the FFF d-IMRT techniques could reduce the excess absolute risk of contralateral breast,ipsilateral lung,contralateral lung,thyroid and liver.These results are of clinical importance,especially for the early-stage patients with an overall good prognosis.

This paper comprehensively discusses on the potential neurobiological mechanisms of acupuncture in the treatment of tobacco dependence， focusing on three important aspects， including acupuncture's regulation of tobacco dependence behavior， effects of acupuncture on withdrawal syndrome， and the role of acupuncture in preventing relapse. It is found that acupuncture can inhibit drug-seeking behavior by regulating the reward pathway and related neurons， such as dopamine， thus modulating tobacco dependence behavior. It also alleviates withdrawal symptoms by improving the oral environment of smokers and reducing negative emotions after quitting. Furthermore， acupuncture can prevent relapse by decreasing brain network activity related to smoking cravings and improving cognitive brain functions like addiction memory. Currently， research on the specific neurobiological mechanism of acupuncture in treating tobacco dependence and the involved neural circuits is limited. Future research directions are proposed， including the evaluation of clinical effects， exploration of specific therapeutic mechanisms， investigation of brain pathology， and strengthening the exploration of brain functions. Additionally， combining modern technologies to clarify the neural circuits involved in acupuncture intervention will provide a basis for acupuncture treatment of tobacco addiction.

Objective: To summarize the characteristics of children diagnosed as cleft palate associated with middle ear cholesteatoma. Methods: There were five middle ear cholesteatoma cases who had previously received cleft palate repairment surgery. All of the patients were followed up for 17 to 47 months. Median follow-up time was 31 months. Results: There were three males and two females with three to eleven years old , and the average of age was seven years and ten months. The time of cleft palate repairment surgery was from six months to four years, and the average age was one year and nine months. No history of grommet insertion. Three cases were unilateral choleateatoma (right ear in two cases and left ear in one case, of which two cases of contralateral ear with secretory otitis media) and two cases were bilateral choleateatoma. Five cases(seven ears) received surgeries. Radical mastoidectomy + canal wall down tympanoplasty were performed in three ears, in which we found stapes disappeared. Radical mastoidectomy + canal wall up tympanoplasty were performed in four ears, in which we found intact foot plate, with recurrence occurred in one case nine months after the first surgery. No recurrence occurred after the second canal wall down tympanoplasty. The postoperative average hearing thresholds of air conduction were improved in different degrees. Conclusions There may be a relationship between cleft palate associated with middle ear cholesteatoma and no grommet insertion history. The incidence of bilateral cases is relatively high, and otitis media with effusion may occur because of poor Eustachian tube function in the unilateral cases. Choice of surgical methods should be decided basing on combination of decreasing the recrudescence and improving the hearing.
