0.05).CONCLUSIONS The rising rates of the drug-resistant Uu strains may be resulted of no-standard treatments.The treatment time will be shortened and the curative effects will be better if the treatments are based on the results of the susceptibility test.

Objective To explore the effect of acupuncture on ankle varus after stroke. Methods 61 stroke patients with ankle varus were randomly divided into two groups. The control group (n=30) was treated with exercise and function electrical stimulation (FES), while the observation group (n=31) was treated with acupuncture in addition. Clinical Spasticity Index (CSI), Simplified Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA), modified Barthel Index (MBI), Berg Balance Scale (BBS), and Holden Functional Ambulation Category (FAC) were applied to assess ankle spasticity, lower limb motor function, the activities of daily living (ADL), balance function and walking ability respectively before and 8 weeks after treatment. Results Compared with pre-treatment, two groups improved in the ankle spasticity, lower limb motor function,ADL, balance function and walking ability 8 weeks after treatment (P<0.05), and the observation group was better than the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Acupuncture can facilitate to improve the ankle spasticity, lower limb motor function, ADL, balance function and walking ability for stroke patients ankle varus.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT) combined with thermochemotherapy in the treatment of locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC).Methods From June 2008 to June 2011,70 patients with LAPC were divided into radiotherapy group (30 patients) and combination group (40 patients).Radiotherapy used 3D-CRT with a 90％ to 95％ isodose curve,a single dose of 1.8 to 2.OGy,and total radiation dose 50 ～ 70 Gy.The combination group patients received simultaneous thermotherapy at 41.5 ～43.5 ℃ (1 h/fraction,twice a week for 6 times),and hyperthermia given simultaneously injected using arsenic trioxide 20 mg,recombinant mutant human tumor necrosis factor(rmhTNF) intravenous infusion of 10 million U,4 to 6 times,or 3D-CRT at the same time and the treatment given after gemcitabine(0.6 ～ 1.0 g/m2) on Days dl and 8 and cisplatin (DDP) (20 ～ 30 mg/m2) on Days d1-3 intravenous infusion,repeated every 28 days for 3 ～ 6 cycles.Results At 3 months after treatment,the total response (complete remission and partial remission) rate was 70.0％ (49/70),the efficiency of radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy,and radiotherapy combined with thermo-chemotherapy were 56.5％ and 88.2％,and the radiotherapy alone group was 56.7％.There were significant difference in efficiency between radiotherapy combined with thermo-chemotherapy group compared to radiotherapy-chemotherapy group and radiotherapy group (x2 =4.68,4.98,P ＜ 0.05),the last two groups showed no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).The 1-year and 2-year survival rate was 46.8％ and 20.3％,respectively.The 1-year and 2-year survival rates were 52.4％ and 26.7％ in combination group,and 42.5％ and 16.2％ in radiotherapy group (x2 =14.17,P ＜ 0.05 ; x2 =9.74,P ＜ 0.05).No serious complications such as perforation,bleeding,and high fever were seen during treatment and follow-up.Conclusions 3D-CRT combined with thermochemotherapy is well tolerated and is relatively effective for the LAPC patients.

ObjectiveTo determine the peripheral serum expressions and clinical value of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and carbohydrate antigen CA19-9,CA242,CA72-4 and a single sialic acid ganglioside (CA50) antigen in advanced pancreatic cancer patients treated by three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT) combined with endogenous field hyperthermia.Methods60 patients inoperable,advanced pancreatic cancer were treated by 3D-CRT combined with endogenous field hyperthermia.Radiation dose (DT) was 46 ～ 66 GY/23 ～ 33 F.Hyperthermia temperature was 41 ～ 43 ℃ 2 times/week,lasted 60 min each time.The expressions of CEA,CA19-9,CA242,CA72-4 and CA50 in peripheral serum were detected by Electrochemiluminescence immunoassay (ECLIA) every 2 weeks during treatment,and correlation were analyzed with tumor diameter,clinical stage,lymph node metastasis.Results From the 8th week,with 3D-CRT combined with endogenous field hyperthermia ongoing,CEA,CA19-9,CA50 andCA242 expression levels showed a gradual decline.CEA,CA19-9,CA50 and CA242 expression levels were (6.22 ± 2.71 ) μg/L,(43.44 ± 12.93 ) μg/L,(23.21 ± 7.71 )g/L and (24.26 ± 8.92) μg/L in 6 weeks,respectively.The difference was statistically significant among week 6 and week 0,week2,week 4 ( P ＜0.05),however there was no significant difference between week 6 and week 8 ( P ＞ 0.05 ).The CA724 expression did not change significantly ( P ＞ 0.05 ).There were positively correlation between CEA,CA199,CA50 and CA242 with pancreatic cancer tumor size,clinical stage and lymph node metastasis( respectively r =0.877,0.725,0.826,all P ＜ 0.01 ),however CA72-4 had no correlations ( P ＞ 0.05).ConclusionsCEA,CA19-9,CA50 and CA242 expressions in peripheral serum of pancreatic cancer patients were closely related to the treatment.Their joint detection can be served as independent objective evaluation reference information for the treatment efficacy and prognosis.

Objective To analyze the institutional cooperation networks of 137 military hospitals in terms of published papers, trends of cooperation and co-authorship in order to guide the cooperation between military hospitals.Methods The institutional cooperation, co-authorship, author-keyword co-occurrence and author-subject co-occurrence in the 137 military hospitals were analyzed with the Thomson data analyzer( TDA) software.Results and Conclusion The institutional coop-eration between military hospitals could be divided into 5 types and were based on the principle of proximity of locations and similiarity of research.The cooperaiton circle with Chinese PLA General Hospital as the center was expanded over time. The institutional cooperation between military and civilian hospitals was also based on the principle of proximity of locations and similiarity of research.Cooperation between productive authors mainly occurred in the same research group but co-au-thorship outside the research group was scarce.The potential competition or cooperation between research fields and authors can be analyzed by comparing co-authorship and author-keyword co-occurrence.

Keshan disease was an endemic cardiomyopathy in China. The very low selenium intake of local people was considered to be an important causal factor. The main pathological characteristics of this disease was multifo-cal necrosis and fibrous replacement of myocardium that was scattered throughout the wall of all chambers.Two patterns of myocardial necrosis, myofibrillar pattern and mitochondrial pattern were distinguished in electron microscopy. The myofibrillar pattern was characterized by myofibril segmentation. It agreed well with the contraction band necrosis described in light microscopy. It was mainly seen in acute Keshan heart and might be related to circulatory disorders. Mitochondrial pattern was identical with myocytolysis of conventional pathology. It represented the typical lesion of Keshan disease.Mitochondria showed early and conspicuous changes in involved myo-cytes. Myofibrillar damage seemed to be secondary to the mitochondrial injury in the development of myocytolysis.Histochemical studies revealed that the acid phosphatase activity was obviously increased in muscle fibers surrounding the necrotic foci, and the succinic dehydrogenase activity was greatly reduced in damaged myocardio-cytes.

AIM:To investigate the expression characteristics of TRIM 27 in human nasopharyngeal carcinoma tissues, nasopharyngeal carcinoma 5-8F cells and NP69 cells, and to observe the effect of TRIM27 on the proliferation, in-vasion and migration of 5-8F cells.METHODS:The levels of TRIM27 in the nasopharyngeal carcinoma tissues and normal nasopharyngeal epithelial tissues were observed by the method of immunohistochemistry .The mRNA and protein levels of TRIM27 in the 5-8F cells and NP69 cells were determined by real-time PCR and Western blot .TRIM27 siRNA was trans-fected into the 5-8F cells with Lipofectamine 2000.The relative mRNA expression of TRIM27 was detected by real-time PCR.The relative protein expression of TRIM 27 was detected by Western blot .The cell proliferation was analyzed by CCK-8 assay and cell colony formation assay .The change of cell invasion was examined by Matrigel invasion assay .The change of cell migration were examined by wound healing assay .RESULTS:The results of immunohistochemistry showed that the protein expression of TRIM27 in the nasopharyngeal carcinoma tissues was obviously higher than that in the normal nasopha -ryngeal epithelial tissues .The results of real-time PCR and Western blot showed that the mRNA and protein levels of TRIM27 in the 5-8F cells were obviously higher than those in the NP69 cells.The abilities of proliferation, invasion and migration in the 5-8F cells were significantly suppressed after TRIM27 gene silencing ( P <0.05).CONCLUSION:TRIM27 acts as a oncogene in the 5-8F nasopharygeal carcinoma cells .The abilities of proliferation , invasion and migration are significantly suppressed after TRIM27 gene silencing in the 5-8F cells.

Objective To assess the mid-term and long-term efficacy of the permanent inferior vena cava filter in the treatment of deep vein thrombosis of lower limb and discuss the clinical significance of inferior vena cava filter.Methods Retrospectively analyze on the 86 cases with deep vein thrombosis of lower limb (41 males and 45 females,aged 50 to 94 years,mean age was 71.8 years) treated with implantation of permanent inferior vena cava filter in inferior vena cava from Janunary 2010 to October 2015.In these patients,there were 51 cases with embolism in the left leg,25 cases in the right leg,10 cases in both legs and 6 cases were accompanied with pulmonary embolism.The cases without contraindication underwent catheter directed thrombolysis and even percutaneous transluminal angioplasty or stents subsequently if necessary after inferior vena cava filter implantation.All the cases with no contraindication were treated with anticoagulant therapy.Results All the 86 patients were implanted inferior vena cava filter (B.Braun Vena Tech LP 76 and Cordis TrapEase 10)successfully.Sisty-five cases were underwent inferior wena cava filter implantation only,while 21 cases were treated with inferior vena cava filter implantation and catheter directed thrombolysis or even percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and stents.During the follow-up period(12 to 81 months,mean time was 51 months),27 patients died dueing to malignant tumor(17 cases) and other diseases (10 cases) rather than complications caused by inferior vena cava filter.Three patients had recurrence of deep vein thrombosis and 2 patients suffered from the thrombosis induced by stenosis of stents.Inferior vena cava filter appered tilted with angle less than 15 degrees in 6 cases.Three cases suffered from new thrombosis below the filter and 2 cases complained of the filter migration.No case was found with fracture of filter,perforation of the inferior vena cava,bleeding or pulmonary embolism(new onset or recurrent).Conclusions Application of permanent inferior vena cava filter may cause complications,though it is an effective approach to prevent pulmonary embolism in patients with deep vein thrombosis of lower limb.However,permanent inferior vena cava filter may be fit for patients with old age,incurable cancer or limited expected life.
