OBJECTIVE Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor(IMT) is a rare lesion of unknown etiology which was first described in the lung. The clinical and pathologic characteristics,treatment, prognosis of IMT in head and neck were discussed. METHODS The clinical data of 4 cases of IMT were analyzed retrospectively. The specimens of the 4 cases were prepared for immunohistochemical staining and light microscopy. RESULTS The patients included 3 males and 1 female. Their age ranged from 32 to 58 years. The tumors located at the true vocal cord in 2 cases, at the nasal cavity and maxillary sinus in 1 case, at the maxillary sinus in 1 case. Histological examination was found that the tumors consisted of spindle cells,chronic inflammatory cells and myxoid background with delicate vasculature. Immunohistochemical staining demonstrated that the SMActin and Vimentin were expressed positively in the tumor. The patients were followed up for 9 to 21 months after operation. Three patients were alive with no evidence of diseases, one patients recurred at 4 months after operation and were alive with IMT. CONCLUSION IMT is a true neoplasm with a potential of local recurrence. The main treatment of IMT is to resect the lesions thoroughly.

During the dilute acid pretreatment of lignocellulosic materials such as corn stover, hemicellulose is hydrolyzed into monosaccharides, and meanwhile, toxic by-products are simultaneously generated, which may influence ethanol fermentation thereafter. Studies on the inhibitory effects of the by-products on ethanol fermentation are of practical use for further improvement of ethanol yield from lignocellulosic materials. Five by-products, including acetic acid, formic acid, vanillin, furfural and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, were identified to be the main components in the hydrolysate of dilute acid pretreatment of local corn stover, which were added into the medium at different concentrations to study their impacts on the growth and ethanol fermentation of a recombinant xylose-utilizing yeast strain, S. cerevisiae 6508-127. The ethanol production was inhibited by formic acid and acetic acid to a lesser extent than that to the growth, and formic acid was shown to be much more toxic than acetic acid, showing severe inhibitory effects at the concentration of 1g/L, half of the concentration for acetic acid which showed remarkably negative effects on ethanol fermentation. Vanillin caused a much longer lag-phase in growth when the concentration was 2g/L, and the lag-phase was not obvious at lower concentrations. At the concentration of 6g/L, vanillin completely inhibited the fermentation as well as the cell growth. 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural was showed to remarkably inhibit ethanol production, but the biomass yield was higher by exogenous addition of 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural than control. Furfural at 0.5~1.5g/L inhibited the cell growth, but the ethanol yield was higher than that of the control experiment. It was also found that vanillin, furfural and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural could be assimilated and metabolized by S. cerevisiae 6508-127 under the experimental conditions.

OBJECTIVESTo investigate the power density and other relevant data of clinical curing-light units used in Changchun, and to provide practice recommendations to clinical dentists about maintaining of cuing-light units.
METHODSStomatology hospitals, departments of stomatology in general hospitals, and private dental offices in Changchun were randomly selected to participate in the Survey. The investigation analyzed 270 curing-light units. The following data of curing-light units were gathered: brand, type, operation ages, numbers and types of light guide, resin build-ups on light guides, damages of light guides, use frequency, monitor and maintenance of curing lights, and unit numbers/chair numbers.
RESULTSThere were 174 QTH and 96 LED units. The distribution of power density was from 0 to 1702 mW/cm(2). The mean power density was 413.2 mW/cm(2). The power densities of 73 lights were less than 200 mW/cm(2) and could not polymerize resin composites adequately. The mean number of operation age of the light units was 4.74 years. Most of clinical dentists didn't monitor the light-curing units and the situation of build-up from composite resin or damages on light guides was very severe.
CONCLUSIONSMost of the light-curing units used in Changchun were QTH. Some QTH units degenerate severely and need to be replaced with the new ones. Most of the clinical doctors lack the knowledge of how to properly monitor and maintain the light-curing units.

To raise the syndrome sequence quantification, differentiation and classification algorithm based on data envelopment analysis for solving the modeling issue of syndrome differentiation and classification of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). This algorithm has three steps: first, in order to obtain basic units for explaining pathogenesis, and establish a syndrome collection on this basis mechanisms of syndrome differentiation and classification were analyzed and classified according to TCM theory, mechanisms of syndrome differentiation and classification were analyzed and classified according to TCM theory; second, regularity and syndromes of corresponding prescriptions were sought according to the incidence and development progress of syndromes, and mathematical tools of data envelopment analysis were used to calculate state data of syndromes in each stage and obtain quantitative syndrome sequence; finally, syndrome sequence was taken as the measurement standard to quantify candidate syndromes and diagnostic information, and the similarity was calculated to obtain the matching degree between diagnostic information and candidate syndromes, so as to complete the syndrome differentiation and classification calculation. According to the results of model-based reasoning, the algorithm could indicate the regularity implied in prescription materials, and grasp the dynamic process of syndromes in an all-round way, and its results were verified through calculation and analysis on clinical cases. At least, it provides an idea for quantitative modeling of TCM.
