The incidence of diabetes has been increasing with each passing year and diabetic peripheral vascular disease has been one of the serious complications, which increasingly threatens the numerous sufferers' health. The preoperative imaging evaluation measures for the peripheral vascular disease include Doppler ultrasound (DUS), CT angiography (CTA). MR angiography (MRA). Digital subtractionangiography (DSA). In the situation of today that both the imaging equipments and imaging technology are developing swiftly, it is necessary to make an evaluation of these imaging ways. This paper aims to discuss the clinical value, the limitation and the progresses of the above devices, and to summarize the advantages and the recent advances of preoperative MR angiography used for observing lower limb arterial diseases in diabetic patients. Medical researches have showed that MRA , as a non-invasive method with almost the same high diagnostic accuracy as DSA, is an ideal technique for making preoperative evaluation and long-term postoperative checkup.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the significance of CK19 mRNA monitoring in peripheral blood of breast cancer patients.MethodsPeripheral blood samples were collected from 137 breast cancer patients preoperatively,one day post-operation,7 days,1,3,6,12,18,and 24 months after operation.RTPCR was used to detect CK19 mRNA expression.The relationships were analyzed between CK19 mRNA expression and treatment result, between CK19 mRNA expression and clinicopathological parameters.ResultsThere was no significant difference between the level of CK19 mRNA as tested preoperatively,and 1,7 days postoperatively(P ＞ 0.05 ).From one month and thereafter,CK 19 mRNA decreased significantly when compared with that immediate perioperatives ( P ＜ 0.05 ). Postoperative peripheral CK19 mRNA expression increased in those found with recurrent or metastasized tumors ( P ＜ 0.01 ). CK19 mRNA expression does not correlate with patient's menstrual status,estrogen receptor expression,progesterone receptor expression,HER-2 expression and Ki67 proliferation expression (P ＞ 0.05 ). But there was statistically significant correlation between CK19 mRNA expression and tumour size,histology grading,pathological type,lymph node metastasis ( P ＜ 0.01 ).ConclusionsIn breast cancer patients peripheral blood CK19 mRNA expression is correlated with risk clinicopathological parameters, and increases in patients with postoperative recurrence and tumor metastasis.

Objective To investigate the effect of high iodine traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of subclinical hypothyroidism in serum VB12,Hcy and thyroid function.Methods 84 patients of subclinical hypothyroidism from August 2014 to May 2016 in our hospital randomly divided into two groups,the control group of 42 cases were treated with levothyroxine sodium tablets treatment,42 cases in the experimental group received more with high iodine traditional Chinese medicine.The changes of serum VB12,Hcy and thyroid function were observed before and after treatment in two groups. Results Compared with before treatment, levels of blood lipid,Hcy and TSH in two groups significantly decreased,levels of VB12 increased(P<0.05);compared with the control group after treatment,levels of blood lipid,Hcy and TSH in experimental group were significantly lower than the control group, the level of VB12 was higher than the control group,the differences were statistically significant (P <0.05).Conclusion High iodine can effectively reduce blood lipids in patients with subclinical hypothyroidism,levels of Hcy and TSH in pregnancy,increased the levels of VB12,which has good clinical curative effect.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of thunder-fire moxibustion at Dazhui (GV14) and Shenshu (BL23) in treating mild cognitive impairment (MCI) due to ischemic cerebral stroke. Method Sixty patients with MCI due to ischemic cerebral stroke were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 30 cases each. The control group was intervened by joint treatment plus cognitive training, while the treatment group was by thunder-fire moxibustion in addition to that given to the control group. The two groups were evaluated by the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and Wechsler Memory Scale (WMS), the major symptoms were observed, and the clinical efficacies were compared between the two groups. The two groups were both treated for 8 weeks. Result The total effective rate was 80.0%in the treatment group, versus 70.0% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). Conclusion The selected acupoints can improve the cognition and activities of daily living (ADL) in MCI patients;thunder-fire moxibustion at Dazhui and Shenshu plus cognitive training can produce a better clinical efficacy than dry cognitive training. Therefore, we can combine thunder-fire moxibustion with modern rehabilitation to enhance the therapeutic efficacy in preventing and treating MCI.

Objective: To investigate the relationship between the Smad4-independent pathway of TGF-?1 and drug-resistance of pancreatic cancer. Methods: The sensitivities of Smad4 homozygous-deleted pancreatic cancer cell line BxPC3 to different kinds of anti-cancer drugs (5-Fu, Gemzar, Oxaliplatin, Cisplatin, CPT-11 and Epirubicin) were observed by MTT assay before and after they were transfected with full-length cDNA of TGF-?1 or treated with TGF-?1 (5 and 10 ng/ml) solution. Western blot was used to detect p170 protein expression after stimulation with different concentrations of TGF-?1. Results: Cisplatin had the most powerful killing effect on BxPC3 cells, followed by Oxaliplatin, 5-Fu and CPT-11 with moderate effect and Gemzar and Epirubicin with the least effect. Cells transfected with full-length cDNA of TGF-?1 or treated with TGF-?1 solution became less sensitive to Cisplatin. Western blot revealed upregulation of p170 expression by TGF-?1. Conclusion: The Smad4-independent pathway of TGF-?1 can increase the drug resistance of pancreatic cancer cells through upregulating expression of p170.
