Objective: To analyse the acuracy of color doppler ultrasound examination in the measure- ments of blood vessels in tissue flaps. Methods: 110 pieces of associated blood vessel in tissue flaps in 64 cases were measured with color doppler ultrasound examination before operation. The quality of blood vessel, its diameter, blood stream filling, the vascular pedicle length and its depth were measured. The results were checked and compared with the findings in operation. Results: Of all 110 pieces of associated blood vessel evaluated by doppler, the accurate ratio confirmed by the finding in operation was 100%. The inner diameter of 38 pieces of blood vessel measured in operation was coincident with that measured by doppler before operation, or with little difference. Conclusion: The color doppler ultrasound examination is a reliable method for evaluating the blood vessel both of the donor and host areas in maxillofacial reconstruction surgery with tissue flap.

Objective:To evaluate 2D ultrasonography(2DUS), color Doppler flowing imaging(CDFI) and color Doppler energy (CDE) in the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant tumors of salivary glands.Methods:According to the characters of 2DUS and CDFI examination, benign and malignant tumors in 142 cases of salivary glands were distinguished. The results of ultrasound examination and postoperative biopsy were checked and compared. Meanwhile the same tumor's blood flow information and hemodynamics index were compared. Results:In 2DUS examination, the inter echo and post echo of benign and malignant were different. In CDFI examination, the blood flow form could be displayed clearly. Besides Warthin tumors, the blood supply ranking of benign tumors was usually levelⅠor Ⅱ-(78.7%), and that of malignant tumors was levelⅡ+ or Ⅲ(80.0%). The artery's peak systolic velocity(PSV) of malignant tumors was higher than that of benign tumors. The rates(%) of sensitivity, specificity,accuracy,false negative, false positive, positive predicting and negative predicting of 2DUS were 70.2,87.4,81.7,29.8,12.6,73.3 and 85.6,those of CDFI 80.9,65.2,70.4,19.1,34.7,53.0 and 87.3,those of the integrated usage of ultrasonic methods 89.3,90.5,90.1,10.6,9.5,82.4 and 94.5 respectively.Conclusion:With the integrated usage of ultrasonic methods, higher accuracy of differential diagnosis for benign and malignant salivary glands tumors may be obtained.

Background and purpose:miR-17-92 gene cluster overexpression has been observed in various cancers, such as lung cancer, liver cancer, gastric cancer and prostate cancer. In this study, we established the stable cell line overexpressingmiR-17-92 to explore the inlfuence ofmiR-17-92 on the migration, invasion abilities and cisplatin resistance of the prostate cancer DU145 cells.Methods:miR-17-92 overexpression vectors were constructed. DU145 cells were infected with the viral supernatants produced by Phoenix A packaging system. Real-time lfuorescent quanti-tative polymerase chain reaction (RTFQ-PCR) was conducted to detect the expression level of miR-17-92 in the cells. The migration and invasion abilities were measured by a real-time xCELLigence system. The scratch healing assay was carried out to investigate the migration abilities. The expression of integrin β1 was detected by Western blot, and the activities of matrix metalloprotein-2 (MMP-2) and matrix metalloprotein-9 (MMP-9) were measured by gelatin zymography experiment. The cell growth of the two cell lines after the treatment of cisplatin was detected by a real-time xCELLigence system. The mRNA expression ofERCC1 was measured by RTFQ-PCR. Western blot was conducted to investigate the protein expressions of ERCC1, ERK1/2 and pERK1/2.Results:DU145-miR-17-92 cells migrated faster than DU145-control cells during the 24 h continuous monitoring (P<0.01). The scratch healing assay indicated that DU145-miR-17-92 cells migrated from the edge towards the scratch center faster than DU145-control cells. DU145-miR-17-92 cells invaded through matrigel markedly faster than DU145-control cells (P<0.01). The protein expression level of integrin β1 and the MMP-9 activities in DU145-miR-17-92 cells were increased than those in DU145-control cells. After the treatment of cisplatin, DU145-miR-17-92 cells grew faster than DU145-control cells, presenting cisplatin resistance (P<0.01). The phosphorylation of ERK1/2 in DU145-miR-17-92 cells was constantly at a high level regard-less of the treatment of cisplatin. Compared with DU145-control cells, the expression of drug resistance-related gene ERCC1 was dramatically increased in DU145-miR-17-92 cells after the treatment of cisplatin.Conclusion:miR-17-92 overexpression increases the migration and invasion abilities of the prostate cancer DU145 cells, which is associated with the upregulated expression of integrin β1 and the increased activity of MMP-9. Besides,miR-17-92 overexpression enhances the cisplatin resistance of DU145, which is correlated with the increased phosphorylation level of ERK and the upregulated expression of ERCC1 at both the mRNA and protein levels.
