Objective To observe the positional relationship of lumbar nerve roots and its main adjacent structures with CT data, and to conduct 3D construction and measurement,so as to provide anatomical basis for percutaneous lumbar diskectomy(PLD).Methods CT serial tomography dataset of 30 healthy adults' lumbosacral portions were imported into Mimics 17.0 software to segment related structures and obtain the layers of different structures.The structures were 3D reconstructed and virtually demonstrated.The lumbar nerve roots and their main surrounding structures were observed and measured.Results The minimum distances between the lumbar nerve roots and the superior articular processes increased gradually from L3 to L4 intervertebral disc layer to L5 to S1 intervertebral disc layer.The 3D model clearly displayed the morphology and spatial relationship of the lumbar nerve roots and their adjacent structures in lumbosacral portion.The lower the lumbar intervertebral discs were,the thicker they were.The distances from the middle point of the back of lumbar intervertebral disc to the end of the superior spinous process of lumbar vertebra increased at first and decreased then,and the distance in L3 to L4 intervertebral disc layer was the farthest.Conclusion The relationship between lumbar nerve roots and superior articular processes,the intervertebral disc thickness variance and the change of the distances from lumbar intervertebral disc to the end of the superior spinous process have been analyzed in this study,and the clinic basis has been laid for percutaneous lumbar diskectomy.

Objective To discuss the diagnosis and early intervention treatment of fetal congenital broncho-genic cysts based on the cases reviewed. Methods The clinical features of 7 infants presenting bronchogenic cysts diagnosed antenatally from January 2013 to May 2014 in Guangdong Women and Children's Hospital and Health In-stitute were reviewed retrospectively. Pathology,the prenatal diagnosis and treatment of bronchogenic cysts experience were summarized combined with CT after birth and surgery. Results Based on the prenatal diagnosis of fetal and postnatal CT and surgical pathology,a total of 7 cases with congenital bronchial cysts were diagnosed. Of which 4 ca-ses were suggestive of congenital cystsic adenomatoid malformation by prenatal diagnosis,and the other 3 cases had fetal bronchial cysts by prenatal diagnosis,antenatal diagnosis was accurate in 42. 9%(3 / 7 cases). CT examinations were taken in 7 cases after birth,and the cyst excision was performed on them with surgery thoracic approach;the average age at surgery was(5. 3 ± 1. 7)months. Four cases had simple bronchial cystss,2 cases with congenital cystsic adenomatoid malformation,1 case with congenital pulmonary sequestration. The accuracy of CT diagnosis was 85. 7%(6 / 7 cases). All surgical treatment was effective. Conclusions Fetal bronchial cysts is always associated with the other presence of lung congenital malformations. Prenatal diagnosis of congenital bronchial cysts is difficult. Prenatal diagnosis is difficult to exclude congenital cystsic adenomatoid malformation. To avoid symptoms like oppres-sion,infection,prenatal diagnosis combined with CT examination after birth and early treatment are necessary and reliable clinically.

Objective To set up a technical platform of reverse genetics based on the 8 plasmid.virus rescue system of cold-adapted influenza virus strain. Methods The cold-adapted, temperature sensitive, live attenuated influenza virus strain A/AnnArbor/6/60(H2N2)was chosen as the master donor virus(MDV)for rescue research,and its six internal gene fragments PB2,PB1,PA,NP,M and NS were artificially synthesized. Meanwhile, five amino acid mutations have been introduced as tags. Six fragments were ligated with modified pAD3000 for the construction of rescue plasmid. Six transcription/expression plasmids(pMDV-A-PB2,pMDV-A-PB1,pMDV-A-PA,pMDV-A-NP,pMDV-A-M,and pMDV-A-NS)were obtained, and their sequences were accurate. Results The reassorted virus named as rMDV-A contains HA and NA gene segments derived from PR8 strain along with six gene segments,PB2,PB1,PA,NP,M and NS,from MDV. The COS-1 cells were co-transfected with eight recombinant plasmids. The results showed that a cold-adapted, attenuated reassortant influenza A virus with hemagglutination activity was rescued successfullv bv"6+2" combination of MDV and PR8, and the allanotoic fluid of the injected eggs gave a posigenes of A/AA/6/60 used as backbone has provided experimental materials for further research on the gene function and novel vaccine candidate of cold-adapted, attenuated human influenza virus.

Six gene segments, PB1, PB2,PA, NP, M and NS, were fully synthesized which derived from the master donor virus(MDV), cold-adapted(ca),temperature sensitive(ts), live attenuated influenza virus strain A/Ann Arbor/6/60(MDV-A). Meanwhile, five amino acid substitutions (PB1-391E, 581G, 661T, PB2-265S, NP-34G) were artificially altered by human intervention. HA and NA fragments derived from the 2006～2007 circulating strain A/New Caledonia/20/99 (H1N1). Eight fragments were ligated with modified pAD3000 for rescue plasmid construction. Eight transcription/expression plasmids were named as pMDV-A-PB2, pMDV-A-PB1, pMDV-A-PA, pMDV-A-NP, pMDV-A-M, pMDV-A-NS, pMDV-A-HA, pMDV-A-NA, respectively. The COS-1 cells were co-transfected with eight plasmids representing 6 internal viral backbone of the strain A/AA/6/60 and two plasmids containing the cDNA of the HA and NA segments of the strain A/New Caledonia/20/99 (H1N1), the results showed that cold-adapted, attenuated reassortant influenza A virus was rescued successfully. Titers of a reassorted influenza A virus in embryonated chicken eggs ranged from 1∶29 to 1∶210. The rescue system of six internal genes used as backbone opens the way for further research on gene function and neotype vaccine candidate of cold-adapted, live attenuated human influenza virus.

Objective To compare prenatal ultrasonography and MRI in view of the accuracy in the diag-nosis of congenital cystic adenmatiod malformation(CAMM)of the lung. Methods From January 2014 to Octo-ber 2015,68 fetus who were examined with both prenatal ultrasonography and MRI and diagnosed as CAMM by pathological findings after operation or autopsy in our study. Taking the final pathological diagnosis of fetal CCAM genotyping as the gold standard,the accuracy of prenatal ultrasonography and MRI were compared in the diagnosis of CAMM of the lung.P<0.05 was considered as statistically significant. Results The alignment degree of prena-tal ultrasound in the diagnosis of CAMM was significantly larger than that of MRI examination to the pathological di-agnosis.Conclusion Prenatal ultrasound is an important method for diagnosing CCAM before pregnancy with high accuracy and affordability.

Objective:To comprehensively analyze the prognostic prediction value of RNA binding protein, transcription factor gene expression and immune infiltration in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods:Common gene sets associated with RNA-binding proteins and transcription factors were screened in TCGA ( n=365) , GSE54236 ( n=78) and GSE14520 ( n=221) datasets. Univariate Cox regression was used for primary screening. The survival regression model was constructed by LASSO-Cox. And a complex index [CIRT=(score-min)/max] was calculated. According to the median of CIRT, the HCC patients were divided into CIRT high group ( n=182) and CIRT low group ( n=182). The differences of prognosis, immune infiltration between the two groups were analyzed. Results:Of 37 prognostically relevant RNA binding protein and transcription factor genes were identified. The prognosis prediction model based on seven selected genes was determined by stepwise regression. Patients in the CIRT high group exhibited a lower percentage of macrophages in M1 ( P=0.032), macrophages in M2 ( P=0.009), resting mast cell ( P<0.001), activated NK cells ( P=0.007), and resting memory CD4 + T cells ( P<0.001), while patients in the CIRT low group showed a lower level of resting dendritic cells ( P=0.048), macrophages in M0 ( P<0.001), neutrophils ( P=0.049), follicular helper T cells ( P=0.004) and regulatory T cells ( P=0.001). GSEA analysis has shown that CIRT high groups were highly enriched in cell cycle, DNA repair pathways in TCGA and GSE14520. In the TCGA cohort, the CIRT low group had better overall survival than the CIRT high group. Analysis of 5-year follow-up data in the TCGA cohort showed that CIRT had a good predictive value for long-term survival of patients with liver cancer (area under receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.71). Conclusion:A novel prognostic index and classifier based on RNA-binding protein expression, transcription factors and immune expression profiles were developed and cross-cohort validated. CIRT could be used as an independent predictor.
