Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics,surgical resection extent and prognosis influencing factors of pri-mary high-risk gastrointestinal stromal tumors(GIST).Methods The clinicopathological and follow-up data of 48 patients with pri-mary resectable high-risk GIST in this hospital from January 2005 to January 2013 were retrospectively analyzed.The influence of three kinds of different surgical resection methods on the prognosis of GIST was analyzed.Results 34 cases were treated by R0 re-section(70.83%),6 cases by R1 resection(11.50%)and 8 cases by R2 resection(16.67%).All cases were given the postoperative adjuvant therapy of imatinib mesylate.The average medication time was(26.5±13.6)months.The occurrence rate of adverse drug reactions was 100%,and the main symptoms were swelling and leukopenia.The 5-year survival rates in 3 kinds of resection modes were 97.06%,66.67% and 25.00% respectively.The univariate and multivariate prognostic analysis showed that the surgical re-section extent and the tumor rupture were the independent prognostic factors in the high-risk GIST patients.Conclusion The intact operative resection and preventing the tumor rupture are the keys to increase the postoperative survival rate of GIST patients.

As is known, H-Y antigens (male specific minor histompatibility antigens) are a group of minor histocompatibility antigens encoded on the Y-chromosome with homologous H-X antigens on the X-chromosome. H-Y antigens were originally discovered as transplant antigens, and they are only expressed in male individuals without specificity for different tissues and organs. A lot of research results show that H-Y antigens play an important role in the sex selection and identification. The paper reviews the above and discusses the application prospect of H-Y antigen in forensic science.

Study of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndromes is a key to the research of TCM modernization, and the core is the classification and diagnostic criteria of syndromes. The purpose of this article is to review the usage of classification algorithms of data mining in TCM syndrome researches, and comprehensively analyze the main features of algorithms and their applications. The appropriate classification algorithm should be chosen according to different research purposes. Rough sets and cluster analysis are suitable for exploratory research without requiring a prior knowledge. Fuzzy sets theory, neural networks and decision tree are suitable for syndrome diagnostic criteria research when the classification goal is clear, because they require a prior knowledge. Among them, fuzzy sets theory could be used in combination with other classification algorithms. Thus, some new methods such as fuzzy clustering, fuzzy rough sets or fuzzy decision tree might be more suitable for TCM algorithm classification research. It is suggested that some novel classification algorithms need to be developed to fit the condition of TCM syndrome, based on the interdisciplinary theories and technologies.

Aim To investigate the effect of chlorogen-ic acid,caffeic acid,and ferulic acid on expression of molecules related with inflammatory response of HMECs induced by activated complement alternative pathway.Methods CVF was used to activate the al-ternative pathway of serum complement.After exposure of HMECs to activate complement for various times, supernatant of cell culture was removed and assayed for content of ICAM-1,IL-6,IL-8,t-PA,and PAI-1 u-sing ELISA kits.The expression of the above mole-cules induced by activated complement was measured after HMECs were pre-treated with 50,100,250 μmol ·L-1 of CGA,CA,and FA.Results After HMECs were exposed to the product of the activated comple-ment alternative pathway,the expression of ICAM-1 , IL-6,IL-8,t-PA,and PAI-1 was up-regulated.The expression of ICAM-1,IL-6,IL-8,t-PA,and PAI-1 was down-regulated by various concentrations of CGA, CA,and FA.ICAM-1 and IL-8 were inhibited most significantly in all molecules mentioned above.CA ex-hibited the best intervention effect,followed by FA. Conclusion Certain concentration of CGA,CA,and FA can inhibit the expression of ICAM-1,IL-6,IL-8, t-PA,and PAI-1 in HMECs induced by the activation of the alternative complement pathway,indicating that CGA,CA,and FA can inhibit inflammatory response of HMECs.

Objective To understand medical students on the awareness level, attitude , behavior and requirement of professional bilingual teaching, so as to provide reference for bilingual teaching. Methods A self- administered was conducted among medical students from different speciality. Results There was a significant difference in awareness level of professional bilingual teaching between nursing students and clinical medicine students (χ2=4.95, P<0.05). Majority students (81.3%) supported carring out bilingual teaching. Teachers and students' foreign language level, selection of bilingual textbook, teaching mode and environment of bilingual teaching are the main influencing factors on earring out professional bilingual teaching. Conclusion Professional bilingual teaching should be implemented designedly, selectively and systematically according to practice condition of different speciality and different subject.

Objective To investigate the clinical and pathological features,diagnosis and differential diagnosis of isolated granulocytic sarcoma of the ovary. Methods The clinical manifestations,pathological features,immunohistochemistry,treatment and prognosis were analyzed in 1 case of isolated granulocytic sarcoma of the bilateral ovary with the review of literatures. Results Granulocytic sarcoma of the ovary was rare. Only 14 cases had been reported so far. This case presented a greenish masse arising from the right ovary measuring 10.0 cm × 8.5 cm × 6.0 cm and 4.8 cm × 3.0 cm × 2.2 cm mass in the left ovary. The neoplastic cells grew in a diffuse pattern or India file, composed of myeloid cells at various stages of maturation, being predominantly primitive myelocytes with a few immature eosinophils. Immunohistochemistry,tumor cells were strongly positive for MPO,CD117,CD43,but negative for CD79α,CD3 Conclusions In routine morpholog,granulocytic sarcoma may be misinterpreted as lymphoma,granular cell tumor,et al. Neoplastic cells at various stages of maturation,India file pattern and immature eosinophils are important diagnostic clues. Immunohistochemical stains are essential in order to obtain correct diagnosis. Despite the localized nature of tumor, intensive antileukemia chemotherapy is necessary.

Purpose To investigate the expression of TPX2 in breast cancer, analyze the correlation between its expression and clinico-pathologic characteristics and explore the significances of TPX2 in the treatment and prognosis of breast cancer. Methods Expression of TPX2 in breast cancer tissues, adjacent tissue of cancer and normal breast tissue was examined by immunohistochenistry SP method. The mRNA expression of TPX2 in breast cancer tissues, adjacent tissue of cancer and normal breast tissue was detected by reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction ( RT-PCR) . Results The expression of TPX2 is significantly higher in breast cancer tissues (75. 86%) compared with adjacent tissue of cancer (40. 00%) and normal breast tissue (5. 00%). And the expression of TPX2 cor-related with tumor grade and lymph node metastasis (P<0. 01), while unrelated to age and clinical stage (P>0. 05). The expression of TPX2 mRNA is also significantly higher in breast cancer tissues ( 1. 465 7 ± 0. 136 6 ) compared with adjacent tissue of cancer (0. 923 3 ±0. 114 8) and normal breast tissue (0. 326 9 ±0. 097 3) (P<0. 01). Conclusion High expression of TPX2 in breast cancer correlated with tumor grade and lymph node metastasis, so TPX2 might be a risk factor in the tumorigenesis, progression and lymph node metastasis in breast cancer.

Objective To evaluate the effect of various kinds of dyslipidaemia on insulin resistance and pancreatic islet ? cell function in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetic patients. Methods 263 patients with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes were divided into normal lipidemia group and dyslipidaemia group according to ATPⅢ standard. The dyslipidaemia group included 3 subgroups as the following: high TG group, high TC group, and mix group with high TG and TC. Homeostasis model assessment (HOMA) was applied to estimate insulin resistance (IR) and pancreatic islet ? cell function. Early insulin secretion index (EISI) and area under curve of insulin (AUCI) at all OGTT time points were calculated. Results Incidence of dyslipidaemia in the type 2 diabetic patients was 63%. BMI and WHR were significantly higher in both high TG group and mix group than in normal lipidemia group(P
