STMN1 is a microtubule-destabilizing protein that regulates cell cycle by phosphorylation and dephosphorylation. It plays an important role in the proliferation and differentiation of cells, in addition to the tumorigenesis. This protein is highly expressed in a wide variety of human cancers, including leukemia and multiple types of solid tumors. The relationship between STMN1 and gastric cancer has recently been investigated. Studying STMN1 in gastric cancer is important. A number of studies have suggested that overex-pression of STMN1 can affect the therapeutic response of docetaxel, an anti-microtubule drug. This review summarizes the role of ST-MN1 in gastric carcinogenesis, development, prognosis, and treatment. The relationship between STMN1 and clinical pathology and its regulation pathways is also investigated.

Objective To perform an acceptance test for the IMRT system with independent collimator. Methods An ion chamber dosimeter were used to measure the startup characteristics of the accelerator and the absolute dose at isocenter and given characteristic points for three clinical cases ( a lower nasopharyngeal carcinoma, a lung cancer and a cervical cancer). The characteristic points represented the organs at risk or the target. A Mapeheck2 was used to measure dose maps of basic test fields and the treatment fields for the clinical cases. The basic test fields were as follows: 1 ). Symmetric fields in size of 2 cm ×2 cm, 5 cm ×5 cm, 10 cm× 10 cm, 20 cm ×20 cm, 2 cm × 10 cm, 10 cm ×2 cm, 5 cm ×20 cm and 20 cm ×5 cm;2). Asymmetric fields in size of 2 cm ×2 cm (x1 =4 cm, y1 = 10 cm;x2 = -2 cm, y2 = -8cm) and 5 cm ×5 cm (x1 = -2 cm, y1 = -5 cm;x2 =7 cm, y2 = 10 cm) ;3) A 20 cm ×20 cm composite field composed of five 20 cm× 4 cm narrow bar fields side by side. Gamma Index was used to compare calculated and corresponding measured dose distributions. When the criterion was 3% dose difference or 3 mm distance-to-agreement, the pass rate was required to be more than 90%. Results The accuracy of machine output was better than 2% when machine monitor units increased to 4. Among all basic test fields and all the treatment fields of three clinical cases, the maximal absolute dose error was -3.67%, and only the composite test field and two treatment fields of the lower nasopharyngeal carcinoma case had a pass rate slightly less than 90%, which were 83.6%, 88. 3% and 89. 7% ,respectively. For the three clinical cases the treatment delivery times were 15, 14, and 27 minutes, respectively. Conclusions The overall commissioning results are acceptable, and the system can be used in clinic.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of interventional therapy of occlusive lesion in iliaco- femoral arteries. Methods During Feb 2001 to Feb 2006, 42 patients (30 male and 12 female) with arterial occlusive lesions in iliac artery and/or femoral artery accepted interventional therapies. The interventional therapeutic process included local thrombolytic therapy through endoarterial catheter, artery recanalization by guide wire, pereutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) and stent. After interventional operation, patients were administrated anticoagulant and antibiotics one week. Follow-up interval ranged 2 years. Wilcoxon test and t test were used for statistics. Results Immediate technical successful rate was 97.6% (41/42),the secondary technical success rate was 100.0% (42/42). The arterial occlusions were resolved successfully (local thrombolytic therapy in 26 cases, recanalization by guide wire in 31 cases, PTA in 33 cases and 60 stents in 31 cases). There were no severe complications (such as angiorrhexis, perforation) during interventional procedure. The symptoms of lower limb ischemia were palliated or vanished in all patients after interventional therapy. The ankle-brachnial index(ABI) of diseased extremities increased from pre-operation 0.34±0.14 to past-operation 0.65±0.10 (t=25.924, P <0.01 ). During the follow-up, 11/42 (26.2%) iliac or femoral artery (treated with local intra-arterial thrombolysis, PTA and stent) occurred restenosis. After PTA and stenting, the restenosis arteries became fluent successfully. The primary patency rate was 92.8% (39/42)and the secondary patency rate was 100.0% (42/42)1 year after the procedure. Two years after the procedure, the primary patency rate was 71.4% (30/42) and the secondary patency rate was 97.6% (41/42). Conclusions Interventional therapy (including local thrombolysis, recanalization, PTA and stent) is an effective and safe therapy for occlusive lesion in iliaco- femoral arteries.

Objective To quantitatively study the posterior fossa effective space and its relationship with hemifacial spasm (HFS).Methods We conducted a case-control study of patients diagnosed with HFS and sex-and age-matched healthy controls.All subjects underwent high-resolution three-dimensional MRI.The software of 3D-Slicer was used to measure the posterior fossa space and hindbrain tissue volume between the two groups.Results Sixty patients and 60 controls were enrolled in this study.Compared to controls,patients with HFS had a higher posterior fossa crowdedness index (PFCI;83.7% ± 0.6% vs 79.2% ± 0.4%;t =2.58, P =0.01).The multivariate linear regression analysis revealed that a higher PFCI was associated with younger age (r =-0.61, P =0.02), female gender (r =0.76, P =0.003) and HFS (r =-0.43, P =0.01).Conclusions Patients with HFS have a more crowded posterior fossa space than healthy controls, potentially leading to cranial nerve and vascular structure crowding, thus increasing HFS risk.Women have a higher PFCI, which may explain the strong female preponderance in epidemiologic studies.
