ObjectiveTo explore clinic features of large cerebral infarction and the relationship between infarcted area and prognosis.MethodsClinic materials such as dangerous factors, onset, course, treatment and prognosis, brain CT changes and internal carotid artery ultrasonic examinations of 68 patients with large cerebral infarction were analyzed retrospectively.ResultsThere were 28 cases caused by cerebral embolism, and 40 cases caused by cerebral thrombosis. 6 cases got recovery, and 34 cases, progress, and 11 cases,no progress, and 17 cases, death. ConclusionThe infarcted area was significantly related to prognosis (P<0.05). Internal carotid artery frequently occurring atheromas and senile non-valve atrial fibrillation were major embolic origins for large cerebral infarction.11 out of the 17 deaths could be attributed to brain herniation and secondary infection. The early abnormal brain CT showed that the rate of mortality was 62.5%, and the rate of mid-line dislocation was 42.9%. Either of them indicated that prognosis was bad.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the expression of full-length spleen tyrosine kinase [SYK (L)] mRNA and protein in human oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) as well as its possible effects on the invasion and metastasis of OSCC.

METHODSThe expression of SYK (L) was detected in 27 cases of OSCC tissues and its matched adjacent non-cancerous tissues by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), Western blot, and immunohistochemistry. Fourteen cases of normal oral gingival tissues were also analyzed as a normal control.

RESULTSReduced mRNA and protein expression of SYK (L) in OSCC tissues was observed compared with that in normal oral gingival tissues (P<0.01) and adjacent non-cancerous tissues (P<0.05). SYK(L) expression was significantly associated with lymph-node metastasis (P<0.05).

CONCLUSIONSYK(L) is a candidate tumor suppressor for OSCC tissues, and has an inhibitive effect on the initiation, proliferation, and lymph-node metastasis of human OSCC.

Objective To investigate the role of high mobility group protein2(HMGA2)and E-Cadherin in the development of prostate cancer(PCa). Methods A total of 60 paraffln-embedded specimens of PCa were collected from patients who underwent operation in Dalian Central Hospital from 2008 to 2016.The expression lev-els of HMGA2 and E-Cadherin in the specimens were examined by immunohistochemical staining.The correlations between the expression of HMGA2 and E-Cadherin and clinical features such as age,Gleason score,invasion,me-tastasis and TNM stage were studied. Results The expression levels of HMGA2 in PCas were significantly higher than that in controls(χ2=51.818,P<0.01),but the positive expression levels of E-Cadherin in PCas were lower than that in controls(χ2=53.494,P<0.01).The positive expression of HMGA2 and the loss of E-Cadherin were confirmed in PCa accompanied by metastasis,seminal invasion,Gleason score>7 and stageⅢ~Ⅳ(P<0.05). Overexpression of HMGA2 was associated with down-regulation of E-cadherin(Spearman′s r=-0.569,P<0.01). Conclusions Up-regulation of HMGA2 and down-regulation of E-Cadherin are cooperatively correlated with the invasion and metastasis in PCa.

Objective To analyze the distribution of microorganisms in kidney perfusion fluid and perirenal drainage of the renal allografts,and provide evidence to guide clinical practice.Methods The clinical data from the kidney donors and the recipients,the microbiologic culture results of kidney perfusion fluid and perirenal drainage were retrospectively analyzed.Results Ninety-one kidney perfusion fluid samples and 91 perirenal drainage samples were collected from 61 individual renal allografts,and 48 renal allografts were paired.Fourteen (15.4％,14/91) cultured kidney perfusion fluid samples were positive,17 strains were confirmed including 13 strains of bacteria and 4 strains of fungal,and 9 (69.2％,9/13) of bacterial strains were multidrug-resistance with 7 strains resistant to carbapenems,but there was no significant heterogeneity in the outcome of recipients with positive or negative culture results of kidney perfusion fluid samples.Eight (8.8％,8/91) perirenal drainage samples from different recipients were positive,5 of 8 bacterial strains were multidrug-resistance and 3 of them were resistant to carbapenems including meropenem or imipenern.There was no significant correlation between the length of donors' hospital stay and the culture results (P＞0.05),and there was also no significant correlation between the length of recipients' hospital stay after transplantation and the culture results (P＞0.05).Conclusion The kidney with positive perfusion fluid microbiologic culture can be transplanted safely using the prophylaxis or preemptive anti-infection therapy.

ObjectiveTo compare the effect of routine speech training and computer-assisted training on post-stroke dysarthria. MethodsFrom March, 2021 to April, 2023, 72 patients with post-stroke dysarthria in Beijing Bo'ai Hospital were randomly divided into control group (n = 36) and experimental group (n = 36). Both groups received routine rehabilitation, while the control group received routine speech training, and the experimental group received computer-assisted training, for four weeks. They were assessed with modified Frenchay Dysarthria Assessment (m-FDA) and Speech Intelligibility (SI) before and after intervention. ResultsEight cases in the control group and one case in the experimental group dropped down. The scores of m-FDA and SI improved in both groups after treatment (|Z| > 4.183, P < 0.001), and there was no significant difference between two groups (|Z| < 1.598, P > 0.05). Noninferiority of m-FDA was found between two groups (|t| > 3.656, P < 0.001). ConclusionComputer-assisted training could improve the speech function of patients with post-stroke dysarthria, similar to routine speech training.

This paper discussed the current education status on medical ethics and styles and the assessment condition in the examination of doctors' qualification， as well as the existing problems and potential solutions by reviewing domestic and foreign literature and summarizing the practice experience. Traditionally， medical ethics and styles have always been integrated into clinical medical practice in China. However， under the modern medical education system， it is challenged to integrate traditional education on medical ethics and styles with the rules of modern medical knowledge. By summarizing the education and assessment status of medical ethics and styles in the examination of doctors' qualification， it is found that the current examination is relatively poor in the evaluation content， and the way of evaluation is not diverse， with lack of curriculum of medical humanities. The solutions suggested are enriching relevant examination content， introducing more and comprehensive evaluation method， and establishing more medical humanities-related courses.
