Background: TKTL1 is expressed in various tumor tissues, and its expression level is closely related to tumor invasion, metastasis and prognosis. Aims: To investigate the expression and clinical significance of TKTL1 in colon adenoma and colon cancer. Methods: Thirty normal colon mucosa, 84 colon adenoma confirmed by colonoscopy, and 84 colon cancer tissues diagnosed by surgery from March 2015 to May 2018 at the First Hospital of Zibo were enrolled. Protein expression of TKTL1 was detected by immunohistochemistry, and its relationship with clinicopathological parameters in patients with colon adenoma, colon cancer were analyzed. Results: Rate of TKTL1 expression was significantly increased in colon adenoma and colon cancer than in normal colon mucosa (57.1%, 85.7% vs. 13.3%, P<0.01), and rate of TKTL1 expression in colon cancer was significantly higher than that in colon adenoma (P<0.01). The expression of TKTL1 was not related to gender, age, pathological type, pathological feature in patients with colon adenoma (P>0.05). The expression of TKTL1 was not related to gender, age, differentiation in patients with colon cancer (P>0.05), while was related to TNM staging, distant metastasis, lymph node metastasis and depth of infiltration (P<0.05). Conclusions: The expression of TKTL1 in colon adenoma and colon cancer is significantly higher than that in normal colon tissues, and is related to the staging and metastasis of colon cancer. The expression of TKTL1 is closely related to the occurrence and development of colon cancer.

Objective In order to understand the depression situation of the hospitalized tuberculosis patients.Methods Zung depression was used as a tool for assessment,the objective of 130 patients hospitalized for tuberculosis survey.Results 58.5% of the hospitalized tuberculosis patients showed symptoms of depression,compared with the secondary and 3 care patients,the rate was high among the level care patients,meaningful differences(P

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of thoracoscopic surgery combined with chemorad-iotherapy in patients with N2 stage ⅢA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods 40 patients (study group) received thoracoscopic surgery and another 40 patients (control group) received traditional thoracotomy. Combination therapy with navelbine and cisplatin were postoperatively administered for four cycles and one cycle lasted for 3 weeks. 7 to 14 days after chemotherapy , sequential conformal radiotherapy were delivered. The one-year survival and two-year survival rates , duration of tatal treatment , and adverse reactions were compared between the two groups. Results In the study group, duration of total treatment time and time to postoperative chemotherapy were significantly shorter (χ2=9.45,P=0.002 andχ2=41.324, P=0.000), and the KPS score was significantly higher (χ2 = 15.118,P = 0.002). No significant differences were found between the two groups in bone marrow suppression,gastrointestinal reactions,and one- or two-year survival rate. Conclusions As compared with conventional surgery,post-thoracoscopic surgery sequential chemoradiotherapy for patients with N2 stage ⅢA NSCLC could achieve a better efficacy with less surgical trauma , shorter hospital stay , faster recovery , and shorter time to postoperative chemotherapy and total treatment duration;it is worth further researching and popularizing.

Objective To summary the clinical applied value of interventional therapy in hepatic venous outflow obstruction after orthotopic liver transplantation(OLT).Methods The clinical data of 27 patients suspect with hepatic outflow obstruction out of OLT patients were analyzed retrospec- tively.Most of them presented with liver dysfunction,like ascites,jaundice,or hydropsia of lower ex- tremity as BCS.These patients accepted venography and endovascular treatment if venous outflow ob- struction was found.Results By venography,one case of thrombus in inferior vena cava,one case of hepatic vein stenosis,13 cases of inferior vena cava stenosis(3 cases were associated with hepatic vein stenoses)were identified.Stent implantation was successfully performed on 10 patients,and balloon angioplasty on 4 patients.Rapid,dramatic resolution of symptoms was achieved in those patients. Hepatic vein restenosis occurred in one case 8 months after balloon dilatation,and treated with stent implantation.Inferior vena cava restenosis occurred in one case 2 years after balloon dilation,and trea- ted with another balloon expanding.Patients remained completely asymptomatic at 4 months to 5 years of follow-up.Conclusion The venacavographic balloon angioplasty and metallic stent replacement are safe and useful for post-OLT with venous outflow obstruction.

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical effect of pendulum and straight wire technology in patients with fully erupted second molar.MethodsPatients with Angle class Ⅱ malocclusion were chosen.Control group included patients without erupted second molar.Experimental group included patients with completely erupted second molar.Pendulums were used in two groups to distalize maxillary molars.Then straight wire orthodontic treatment had been performed until treatment was over.Cephalograms of each stage were analyzed.ResultsIn the experimental group,mesiobuccal cusp of first molar was distalized for 4.62 mm,geometric center was distalized for 3.75 mm,about 81 percent of the movement of mesiobuccal cusp.In control group,mesiobuccal cusp of first molar was dis talized for 5.78 mm,geometric center was distalized for 3.20 mm,about 55 percent of the movement of mesiobuccal cusp.It turned out first molar was distalized in both groups,but more rotation took place in control group than that in the experimental group.ConclusionsPendulum can distalize maxillary first and second molars in patients with completely erupted second molar.The pendulum and straight wire technology can treat these patients successfully.

Objective To investigate the accuracy of CTVision image-guided stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Methods 10 lung SBRT patients were imaged with CTVision before and after irradiation for acquiring and analyzing the three-dimensional set-up error data sets in our department from October 2010 to May 2012.Gross tumor volumes (GTVs) were contoured on pre-and post-SBRT CT sets and combined for generating internal gross tumor volumes (IGTVs).Planning target volume (PTV) margin was calculated,and IGTVs and PTVs were compared for off-line verification of accuracy of SBRT.A paired t-test statistical analysis was conducted with the datasets using SPSS 17.0.Results 80 CT image sets were totally obtained.Setup errors was significant difference before and after radiotherapy in the left-right,superior-inferior and anterior-posterior directions,that were (-0.10±1.30) mmand (-0.15±1.31) mm (P=0.720),(0.18±1.32) mm and (0.18±1.43) mm (P =1.000) and (-0.08 ± 1.19) mm and (-0.13 ± 1.18) mm (P =0.750),respectively.IGTVs of ten patients were smaller than corresponding PTVs (13.53 cm3 and 37.84 cm3,P =0.000).Conclusion Accuracy and safety of SBRT could be verified by imaging with CTVision before and after delivery for non-small cell lung cancer.

Objective To assess the feasibility and outcomes of fractionated stereotactice radiation therapy(FSRT) for brain metastases more than 3 cm in diameter. Methods From September 1996 to July 2006,47 patients(34 male and 13 female)with brain metastases larger than 3 cm were treated with FSRT. The median age was 58(range,31-87) years old. Pathologic diagnosis was adenocarcinoma in 19 patients, squamacarcinoma in 7, small cell carcinoma in 7, adeno-squamacarcinoma in 3, melanoma in 2, poor differen-tiated carcinoma, clear cell carcinoma, transitional cell carcinoma each in 1, and unknown in 6. FSRT was delivered as initial treatment for 26 patients, and as salvage therapy for 21. The largest diameter of brain me-tastases was 3.1-6.0 cm(median, 3.8 cm). Planning target volume were 2.5-33.8 cm3(median, 9.4 cm3). The median dose of FSRT was 30(range,16-57)Gy in 5(range,2 - 11) fractions. The treatment for primary tumor was surgery in 23 patients, radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy in 22, and none in 2. Results The last follow up was in April 2008. All patients were followed up and 33 had follow up more than 5 years. The 1-,2- and 5-year local control rate was 49%, 44% and 44%, respectively. The median survival time was 11 months(range,0.5-88.0 months, 95% CI=8.1-13.8 months). The corresponding overall survival rate was 40%, 17% and 6%, respectively. There were 46 patients died by the last follow up,including 21 died from brain metastases, 17 died from extracranial progression, and 8 died from other causes. Conclusion FSRT is safe and beneficial for selected patients with brain metastases larger than 3 cm.

Objective To investigate the expression of melatonin MT1 receptor in rats with acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP) and the protective effects of melatonin (MT) pre-intervention for the pancreas. Methods Fifty-four male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into three groups:sham-operation group, ANP group and MT-pretreated group. The models of ANP were induced by retrograde injection sodium taurocholate into the bili-pancreatic duct. MT group undergoing intraperitoneal injection 50 mg/kg 30 minutes before the establishment of ANP models. Four, 8 and 12 hours after the onset of operation, the levels of serum amylase and pathological changes of the pancreas were observed. The contents of malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFα) in the pancreas were measured. The expression of MT1 protein and MT1 mRNA in pancreas were separately analyzed by immunohistochemistry and real-time PCR. Results (1) Pancreatic pathological damage in ANP groups was progressive exacerbated. It was obviously ameliorated in MT group as compared with ANP group ( P ＜ 0.05 ); (2) Compared with SO group, the levels of serum amylase, MDA and TNFα in the pancreas were significantly increased in ANP group (P ＜0.05 or P ＜0.01 ). They were markedly decreased in MT group as compared with ANP group [ 12 h, (2348.00 ±278.90)U/L vs (3194. 83 ±538.10)U/L,(2.255 ± 0.472 ) μmol/L vs ( 2.960 ± 0.722 ) μ mol/L, ( 102.929 ± 29.399 ) ng/L vs ( 378. 544 ±183.454)ng/L, P ＜ 0.05 ]. The level of SOD was decreased in ANP group compared with SO group (P ＜0.05) and increased in MT group[ 12h, (11.448 ± 1.594)U/L vs (8.427 ± 1.950)U/L, P＜0.05] ;(3)Compared with SO group, the expression of MT1 protein and MT1 mRNA in ANP group were down-regulated as the severity of the disease increased ( P ＜ 0.05 ). They were significantly higher in MT group than ANP group. Conclusions Melatonin pre-intervention is able to increase SOD level and decrease MDA, TNFα levels, thereby reducing pancreatic injury. The MT1 might play an important role in the pathogenesis of ANP. MT might exert protective effects for the pancreas in ANP rats through increase the expression of MT1.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the incidence and variation of tunnel enlargement after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction with peroneus longus muscle combined with BMP and allogeneic bone.

METHODSACL reconstructions with peroneus longus muscle combined with BMP and allogeneic bone were performed in 18 patients (18 knees)in the study from March 2007 to July 2009. Among the patients,14 patients were male and 4 patients were female, ranging in age from 21 to 47 years, with an average of 35.5 years. Twelve patients had the injuries in the right knee and 6 patients in the left knee. The CT scans were taken in a consistent manner at the 1st week and the 3rd, 6th, 12th months after surgery to measure tibial and femoral tunnel expansion.

RESULTSTunnel enlargement didn't happen in 18 knees. The average enlargement of 18 cases of femoral tunnel was (1.10 +/- 0.42) mm; and the average enlargement of 18 cases of tibial tunnel was (1.00 +/- 0.51) mm. There was statistical significance of femoral tunnel between the 1st week and the 3rd month after surgery (P < 0.05); and there were no significant difference of the tunnel diameters among the 3rd, 6th, and the 24th months postoperatively (P > 0.05). There was statistical significance of tibial tunnel between the 1st week and the 3rd month after surgery (P < 0.05); there were no significant differences of the tunnel diameters among the 3rd, 6th, and 24th months postoperatively (P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONAnterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with peroneus longus muscle combined with BMP and allogeneic bone could obviously reduce the incidence of tunnel enlargement. The tunnel diameter obviously increase in 3 months after surgery,and it remains basically unchanged later.
