Radioimmunotherapy using monoclonal antibodies incorporated with radionuclide has been showed to be an effective agent for refractory non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). Many anti-CD20 antibodies labeled with radionuclide, such as 90Y-ibritumomab tiuxetan (Zevalin) and 131I-tositumomab tiuxetan (Bexxar), have been reported to be effective for the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory low-grade, follicular, or transformed NHL. This review summarizes the current advance in clinical trials and studies of Zevalin and Bexxar for the treatment of NHL patients.

Objective To investigate the distribution and significance of CD20 positive cells in the early human embryo. Methods Distribution and morphology of CD20 positive cells in 10 specimens of human embryo aged from 6 to 7 weeks were brown,and studied with immunohistochemical method. Results 1.CD20 positive cells appeared in the liver of early human embryo.2.The immunohistochemical positive substances were brown,and found chiefly in the nuclei of B cells as unevenly-distributed granules,and were not detected in the cytoplasma and on the cell membrane.Conclusion The accuracy of location and distribution of CD20 positive cells in the nuclei of B cells of early human embryo liver may provide an important clue for further exploration of the functional mechanism of CD20 in the process of B cell proliferation and differentiation.

Objective A retrospective analysis was carried out in 3 cases of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and liver cirrhosis associated with haemochromatosis in our hospital, to investigate the effect of surgery, radio frequency ablation (RFA) and erythroapheresis in such patients. Methods 8 operations including partial liver resection and ultrasound-guided percutaneous transhepatic RFA were performed in 3 male patients with HCC and liver cirrhosis arising from haemochromatosis.Capecitabine was used in 2 patients. Erythroapheresis was performed in all 3 patients. Result Pathological examination showed hepatocellular carcinoma and liver cirrhosis. Positive Prussian blue staining confirmed the diagnosis of haemochromatosis. The mean survival time of 3 patients was 86 months (from 39 to 154 months). Conclusion It is important to discover HCC in patients with haemochromatosis as early as possible. The curative therapy is liver transplantation and hepatic resection. For patients with recurrent HCC, the combined therapy including RFA, chemotherapy and erythroapheresis could prolong their survival.

Objective To evaluate popliteal artery local technique in superficial femoral artery antegrade subintimal recanalization.Methods From January 2009 to Dec 2011,550 limbs in 476 TASC (Trans-Atlantic Inter-Society Consensus) Ⅱ C/D cases underwent endo-therapy at our department.The success rate、operation time、symptom progress and follow up were analyzed retrospectively.Results In the 550 limbs,62 limbs received popliteal artery local technique directly.There was 9 technical failures.Procedures succeeded in 53 limbs(85.5％ ).The average operation time was (69 ±24) min,(1.8 ±0.6) stents were used and the main covered length was ( 33 ± 6) cm.Symptoms of 46 limbs was improved and unchanged in 6,amputation needed to be done in one limb.One year follow up accomplished for 39 limb.The 6 and 12 months patence rate was 87.1％ and 69.2％.For 488 limbs using traditional approach 378 achieved anti-grade recanalization,the average operation time was ( 89 ± 30) min,average (2.1 ± 0.6) stents were used and the main covered length is (31 ± 13) cm.Symptom in 300 limbs improved.The half and one year patence rate in 292 limbs was 92.1％ and 61.0％.Conclusions The popliteal artery local technique is as effective as with traditional approach and is time saving.

Objective The dynamic accumulation trend of secondary metabolite in cultivated Spatholobus suberectus Dunn at different growth time was studied to provide scientific basis for confirming its reasonable harvesting time. Methods Ethanol-soluble extractives were measured by the method recorded in Chinese Pharmacopoeia ( A) Appendix XA ( 2010 edition). The content of total flavonoids was tested by ultraviolet spectrophotometer. The contents of protocatechuic acid, catechin, and epicatechin in Spatholobus suberectus Dunn were determined by high performance liquid chromatography ( HPLC). Results The contents of ethanol-soluble extractives, total flavonoids and the major components such as protocatechui cacid, catechin and epicatechin in Spatholobus suberectus Dunn showed increasing trend with the prolongation of growth time. The changes of contents of alcohol-soluble extract, total flavonoids and epicatechin in samples collecting at different months in one year showed a parabolic trend, and the contents reached the peak values from July to September. Catechin content kept increasing continually. The content of ethanol -soluble extractives of Spatholobus suberectus Dunn aged 4-6 years met the requirements of the current edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia when harvested from July to September. Conclusion It is preliminarily recommended that Spatholobus suberectus Dunn cultivated for more than 7 years is suitable for harvesting, but the optimal harvest period and the harvest month still need to be further studied.

The present situation and development of such medical image processing techniques are summarized as the techniques of image segmentation, pseudo-color processing, image registration and image fusion. Particular attention is paid to the evaluation criterion for image segmentation and study focuses of image registration and fusion. At the end of this paper, the development tendency of medical image processing is predicted.

Objective To investigate the surgical managements and effects of congenital islated penile curvature. Methods The degloving of penile shaft,penile dorsal tunical plication,urethral division and urethroplasty were performed in 23 patients with this entity including 2 cases of type Ⅰ,11 cases of type Ⅱ,6 cases of type Ⅲ,4 cases of type Ⅳ,mean age 7 years (age 1 to 21 years). Results Of all 23 patients 17 cases of type Ⅱ and Ⅲ were succesfully repaired by degloving of penile shaft;1 case of type Ⅰ,by degloving of penile shaft and dorsal tunical plication;1 case of type Ⅰ and 2 cases of type Ⅳ,by degloving of penile shaft,dorsal tunical plication and urethral division;2 case of type Ⅰ and Ⅳ,by urethroplasty.One case was complicated with urethrocutaneous fistula after urethroplasty,which was succesfully repaired 8 month later;16 cases were followed up average 24 months (range 7 months to 57 months),15 cases showed complete straight penis beside one case with mild curvature less than 15 degree. Conclusions The abnormalities of skin,dartos and Buck's fasciae are main causes of congenital islated penile curvature.Penile degloving,dorsal plication are main surgical methods with minimal complications.

Statement of harmonious medical ethics education is the theoretical attribute in the specific field of medical ethics education in the overall time-value of constructing a harmonious society.This proposition is the inevitable theoretical response to the existent inherent contradictions in medical ethics domain,whose values mainly manifest three dimensions including the value pursuit of a harmonious life,the value construction of the harmony of humanity and utility,the value orientation of harmony of doctors and patients.Moreover,this article discusses the construction of harmonious medical ethics education from three levels,including strengthening the education of care ethics,paying attention to the value of situational ethics,promoting the cultivation of communication ethics.

It is concluded that the research on development and utilization of SCHM contributes a lot to reducing SCHM import, saving foreign exchange and ensuring the safety, effect, output stability and quality control in the production of medicinal material.

[Objective] To compare and identify the different cultivated varieties of Amormun villosum for providing scientific evidence for the selection, breeding, standardization and industrialization. [Methods] Source appraisal, character identification and scanning electron microscope technique were applied to observe and compare the appearance of the original plant, the properties of the medicinal material and the outside characteristics of pollen of Amomum villosum in Yangchun, Guangdong province. [Results] The two cultivated varieties of Amomum villosum in this area, long-fruit and round-fruit types, are quite different in the appearance and the characteristics of pollen. [Conclusion] It is suggested that long-fruit Amomum villosum and round-fruit Amomum villosum should be the selected varieties for breeding.
