Objective To evaluate the correlation of hyperlipidemia and carotid arthrosclerosis manifestations on color Doppler ultrasonography and dynamics of elderly diabetes patients. Methods One hundred and fifty elderly diabetes patients and 106 normal subjects were enrolled in the study. The carotid color Doppler ultrasonography and blood sugar, TC, TG, HDL-C, apoB,VLDL, apoA I, apoB were examined and compared between the two group. Results The blood sugar, TC, TG, HDL-C, apoB, VLDL, apoA I, apoB were increased in diabetes patients which were higher than in normal subjects (P

Objective To investigate the relationship between the expression of Pin1 and Ki67 and the clinicopathologic features of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST).Methods 40 paraffin-embeded specimens of surgical resected GIST from Jan.2013 to May.2015 in Pathology Department of Yuhuangding Hospital Affiliated to Qingdao University were retrieved and expressions of Pin1 and Ki67 were detected by immunohistochemical methods.Results The positivity rate of Pin1 and Ki67 in GIST was 80％ and 32.5％ respectively.The expression of Pin1 was associated with malignancy of GIST,tumor location,tumor size and mitotic counts.The expression of Ki67 is associated with malignancy of GIST,tumor location,tumor size,mitotic counts and tumour necrosis.Pin1 expression was positively related with Ki67 expression.Conclusion Pin1 and Ki67 is closely related with malignancy of GIST,which may be potential factors in predicting prognosis of GIST.

The accumulation of fatigue during military operations may lead to decreased operational efficiency and non-combat attrition,which can impact combat effectiveness.On-site monitoring and evaluation of fatigue during military operations,as an important means to keep track of military operations and bring about quick changes in training,underlie the combat effectiveness of military personnel.Focusing on the on-site monitoring and evaluation methods of fatigue during military operations,this paper reviews the determinants of such fatigue as well as on-site monitoring and comprehensive evaluation methods so as to provide reference for accurate and efficient evaluation of fatigue during military operations and for early warning of such fatigue.

Objective To evaluate the safety, effectiveness and feasibility of robotic-assisted kidney transplantation (RAKT). Methods Clinical data of 16 patients who underwent kidney transplantation were collected. Among them, 8 recipients received RAKT (RAKT group) and 8 cases underwent open kidney transplantation (OKT) with the contralateral kidney from the same donor (OKT group). Perioperative status and the recovery of renal allograft function were compared between two groups. Results All patients successfully completed the surgery. In the RAKT group, no patient was converted to open surgery. The operation time in the RAKT group was longer than that in the OKT group (P=0.015). No significant differences were observed in the serum creatinine levels before surgery and upon discharge between two groups (both P>0.05). In the OKT group, one recipient developed delayed graft function (DGF), and the remaining recipients did not experience perioperative complications. No significant difference was noted in the short-term recovery of renal allograft function between two groups (P>0.05). Conclusions Postoperative recovery of the recipients in the RAKT group is equivalent to that of their counterparts in the OKT group. RAKT is a safe and effective procedure for the team expertise in kidney transplantation.
