Objective To invcstigate the value of preoperative imaging morphologic classification in solitary small hepatocellular carcinoma treated by RFA.Methods The clinical data of 73 patients with small hepatocellular carcinoma who rcccivcd radiofrequency ablation at the Affiliated Drum Tower Hospital of Medical School of Nanjing University from January 2008 to December 2012 were analyzed retrospectively.The lesions were classified into three types according to gross appearance in preoperative contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT):single nodular type (type 1);single nodular with extranodular growth type or confluent multinodular type (type 2);infiltrating type (type 3).Thc clinicopathological features of patients with 3 types of tumors were compared by statistical methods.Patients were followed up via outpatient examination and telephone interview up to August 2014 or death.Results There were 24 cases of type 1,35 cases of type 2,14 cases of type 3,and the proportion were 20.2％,32.9％,47.9％,19.2％,respectively.The preoperative alpha-fetoprotein of type 3 was significantly higher than othcr types.The disease-free survival time of the three types were (37.2 ± 3.3) months,(20.9 ± 4.0) months,(14.4 ±4.9) months.The prognosis of the irregular types (type 2,type 3) is poor than the regular types (type 1).The overall survival time were (72.5 ± 4.7) months,(66.2 ± 7.3) months,(31.2 ± 5.3) months.The type 3 was the worst.The results of univariate analysis showed that morphologic classification,preoperative AFP,tumor size were related factors affecting the prognosis of patients (P ＜ 0.05).The results of multivariate analysis showed that morphologic classification was the independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of patients (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The preoperative imaging morphologic classification is the independent risk factors affecting the prognoses of patients with small HCC,which is help to choose the best treatment for patients with small hepatocellular.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of trans-TrkC gene neural stem cells (NSCs)on the recovery of neural function after spinal cord injury.Methods Sixty SD rats were ran- domly divided into six groups:normal control group(A),hemisection group(B),NSCs transplantation grnup(C),NSCs transplantation with the regional application of NT-3 group(D),trans-TrkC gene NSCs transplantation group(E)and trans-TrkC genc NSCs transplantation with the regional application of NT- 3 group(F),10 rats in each group.Nine days after the set up of animal models,cell transplantation into the injured spinal cord was performed.The BBB locomotor score was calculated,and MEP(motor evoked potential)and SEP(somatesensory evoked potential)were pedormed two months after cell transplanta- tion.Results Two months after cell transplantation,the BBB locomotor score was partly recovered, and the MEP and SEP(somatosensory evoked potential)results were also markedly improved in Group F, which indicated the restoration of the upward and downward nerve conduction function of the injured spinal cord.But it seemed that the restoration of the downward nerve conduction was better than that of the up- want,and the extent of the improvement of MEP and SEP results was larger than that of motion function recovery.The onset latency,peak to peak amplitude of MEP and SEP,and the BBB score of Group F re- stored the best compared with the other groups,and the differences were statistically significant(P

Objective To investigate the prevalence and risk factors of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in Chengdu urban population and the prevalence of CKD in risk population.Methods Questionnaire (anamnesis,smoking,drink) of risk factors of CKD and somatoscopy (blood pressure,body height and body weight) were caried out in railman of Chengdu urban.Their blood and urine indicators (blood sugar,blood lipid,blood uric acid,blood creatinine,uromicroprotein/creatinine ratio,routine urine examination,etc) were measured.The prevalence and risk factors of CKD in Chengdu urban population and the prevalence of CKD in risk population were elucidated.Results Eligible data of 5326 subjects were enrolled in the study.After the adjustment of age and gender component,the prevalence of albuminuria was 11.54％,reduced eGFR was 5.54％,hematuria was 3.87％,and CKD was 18.32％; the recognition was 1.93％.In addition,the prevalence of albuminuria was respectively 23.79％,28.00％,14.08％; prevalence of reduced eGFR was respectively 4.76％,4.53％,3.26％; prevalence of hematuria was respectively 2.94％,3.20％,2.37％ in 3098 people with hypertension,diabetes or hyperlipaemia.Independent risk factors of albuminuria were female,hypertension,diabetes,hyperlipemia and high BMI.Independent risk factors of reduced eGFR were female,age,hyperuricemia and hypertension.Drink was negatively correlated with reduced eGFR.Independent risk factors of hematuria were female and age.Conclusions The prevalence of CKD is quite high and the recognition rate is low in the Chengdu urban populaton.Risk factors of CKD are age,female,diabetes,hypertension,hyperlipemia,hyperuricemia and high BMI.Control of the development of metabolic disease can reduce the CKD.

Objective To determine effect of endurance training on the expression of fatty acid translocase FAT/ CD36 in skeletal muscle of rats and the correlation between the expression and insulin sensitivity index (ISI). Methods Male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to two groups:training group(T,n=13) and control group (C, n=10). Rats in group T were trained on treadmill six days a week for 7 weeks. Fat pads around testes and kidneys were weighted for calculating the percentage of fat pads vs body weight. Serum total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG),nonesterified fatty acids(NEFA) and fasting insulin(FINS) were measured. Western blot was used to detect FAT/ CD36 protein expression in quadriceps homogenate. The relation of FAT/CD36 expression to the ISI was analyzed. Results Markedly lower body weight,percentage of fat pads, TC,NEFA, and FINS were seen in group T after 7-week endurance training comparing to that in group C(P<0.01 ,P<0.01 ,P<0.01 ,P<0.05,and P<0.05,respectively). The FAT/CD36 protein expression and ISI were significantly higher in group T than in group C(P<0.01and P<0.05). A significant correlation between FAT/CD36 and ISI were found in group T(r=0.823,P<0.01 ),nut not in group C. Conclusion Seven-week endurance training improved insulin sensitivity and up-regulated the expression of FAT/CD36 for adapting the requirement of fatty acid transportation in skeletal muscle induced by enhanced lipid catabolism after endurance exercise.
