Pancreatic adenocarcinoma ( PAC) is still a refractory human digest malignancies due to multi-faceted causes ,late diagnosis and insensitive to traditional chemo -and radio-therapy .Resistance to apoptosis could be one of the most relevant mechanisms for PAC to escape any non -surgical therapy .This review aims to clear up the main deregulated apoptosis signal pathways over the years and to find out the abnormal molecule tar -get(s),and therefore,provide novel concepts for PAC molecular targeting therapy .

Objective To investigate the feature of cerebral glucose metabolism of Alzheimer's disease (AD)and dementia with lewy bodies (DLB).Methods 28 patients with AD and 25 patients with DLB underwent positron emission tomography (PET)with 18 F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG)showing glucose metabolism.The region of interest (ROI)was selected from frontal cortex,temporal cortex,parietal cortex,occipital cortex,cerebellum cortex and corpora striata.The 18 F-FDG metabolism ratios between various cerebral regions and cerebellum cortex were compared as an indicator of regional cerebral glucose metabolic patterns.Results The FDG metabolism ratio of parietal cortex and temporal cortex decreased similarly in AD.The FDG metabolism ratio of frontal cortex,parietal cortex,temporal cortex,occipital cortex,dorsal caudate putamen and caudate nucleus in AD was [(0.861 ± 0.173),(0.625 ± 0.149),(0.598 ± 0.185 ),(0.914 ± 0.214),( 1.030 ± 0.084)and ( 0.997 ± 0.102 )].The FDG metabolism ratio of frontal cortex,parietal cortex,occipital cortex,temporal cortex and corpus striatum decreased similarly in DLB.The FDG metabolism ratio of frontal cortex,parietal cortex,temporal cortex,occipital cortex,dorsal caudate putamen and candate nucleus in DLB was [ (0.538 ±0.147),(0.615 ±0.138),( 0.587 ±0.142),(0.415 ±0.107 ),(0.685 ± 0.094)and (0.547 ± 0.103 )].The FDG metabolism ratio of frontal cortex,occipital cortex and corpus striatum decreased more significantly in DLB than in AD (P<0.01 ).Conclusion There are discrepancies in cerebral glucose metabolism between AD and DLB.These features may be useful in differential diagnosis of these two kinds of dementia.

Objective To make a comparative assessment on both the therapeutic effects and side effects between percutaenous lauromacrogol injection therapy(PLIT) and percutaenous ethanol injection therapy(PEIT) for simple hepatic or renal cyst.Methods In group A,55 patients with simple hepatic or renal cysts underwent ultrasound-guided aspiration and successive PLIT.The intra-operative side effects were investigated and the therapeutic effects assessment by using ultrasonography was conducted 3 months after the treatment.In group B,60 patients with simple hepatic or renal cysts had received ultrasound-guided aspiration and PEIT sometime before.The intra-operative side effects and therapeutic effects on the thirdmonth ultrasonography were independently reviewed according to their case records.Results In group A,3 patients(5.5 %) expressed slight discomfort but not pain while receiving lauromacrogol injection.Follow-up ultrasound examination at the end of third month demonstrated the cysts in 43 patients completely regressed,while cysts in rest 12 patients shrank over 50 % in size,showing the overall response rate(ORR) and completely cure rate(CCR) were 100% (55/55) and 78.2% (43/55) for PLIT respectively.In group B,12 patients(20%) suffered from slight to moderate irritating pain or drunk performance.The third-month ultrasound examination disclosed that cysts in 47 patients completely vanished,and cysts in the other 13patients shrank more than a half,indicating the ORR and CCR were 100% (60/60) and 78.3 % (47/60) for PEIT respectively.Conclusions Although their therapeutic efficacy are perfectly similar,PLIT is much more superior to PEIT in term of less and minor side effects.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics and coagulation parameters of the infants with placental abruption . Methods Analysis was made on clinical and laboratory indexes of the hospitalized children of the NICU of Bayi Clinical Medical College of South Medical University ,enrolled from August 2012 to January 2013 ,including 60 infants with placental abruption as observation group and 60 infants without placental abruption as the control group .Results From clinical manifestations and lab date ,significant differences were found in gestational age ,polyembryony ,premature rupture of membrane ,birth weight ,intrauterine growth retardation ,motherhood gestational hypertension ,mother gestational diabetes mellitus ,asphyxia ,APTT ,D-dimer on admis-sion between the observation group and control group (P<0 .05) .Conclusion Placental abruption is the result of placental insuffi-ciency ,which may cause coagulation disorder and thus show the pathological state of high condensation in infants .

Objective Explore the individual difference in carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning and analyze whether females were be more resistant to CO poisoning.Methods We collected 207 cases of CO poisoning deaths, and then we analyzed the Carbonyl Hemoglobin (COHb) results sorted by different sources of CO.Results The source of CO had significant impact on the fatal COHb level, but gender was not significant in affecting COHb level. In addition, it is possible that children and elders were less resistant to COHb than adults.

Hepatocellular carcinoma ( HCC ) is one of the commonest malignant tumors in China .The therapeutic effects of conventional therapies including surgery resection at early stage ,chemotherapy or radiothera-py are greatly less than expected .One of the most possible reasons is the blockage of apoptosis in HCC cells .This review collects literatures about the studies on the roles of key signal pathways including RA ,STAT3,PDT,p53,β-catenin,TRAIL,microRNA and RAS in HCC therapy .This study may contribute greatly to providing outline in-sights for using apoptosis induction in liver cancer therapy .We hope it can promote the development liver cancer therapy in China .
