Objective To investigate the clinical,neuroradiologic characteristics and possible causes in 3 patients with combined developmental venous anomalies (DVAs) and cerebral cavernous malformations (CCM).Methods The clinical examination,magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) T1-weighted (T1 WI),T2-weighted (T2WI),susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI) or T2 fast field echo (T2 FFE),contrast-enhanced MRI at 1.5 T field strength and digital substrate angiography were performed in 3 patients.Results Three patients presented with the seizure,vertigo,and dizziness respectively.MRI findings of reticulated “popcorn like” lesion with complete hemosiden rim showed typical sign of CCM.DSA,contrast-enhanced MRI and MRI-SWI revealed the caput medusae of the medullary veins and collected veins which was drained into subcortical and deep venous system,which indicated DVAs in 3 patients.The angulated medullary veins and collected veins in approaching distal zone of CCM were observed.Conclusion DVAs can be combined with CCM.The angulated medullary veins and collected veins combined with CCM in same territory reveals that the angioarchitectural factors is a key factor in pathogenesis of cavernous malformation.

Objective:To investigate the medical students' cognition of ethical issues in assisted reproductive technology (ART) and discuss the importance of ethical education in medical colleges and universities.Methods:A questionnaire survey about the ethical cognition of assisted reproductive technology was conducted among 632 medical students.The questionnaire included the donation and management of gametes and embryos,and offspring problems.Results:Medical students agreed with most of the current ART-related laws and regulations.however,44.8％ of medical students considered that criteria of donating eggs should be relaxed,such as allowing women who do not receive ART treatment be paid for eggs.In addition,a total of 39.0％ of medical students supported the legalization of surrogacy technology in china.Conclusion:Medical students exists a certain misunderstanding in egg donation and surrogacy technology.We should give more training to medical students in ethical knowledge.In addition,our country can supplement and perfect the current laws and regulations to a certain extent.

A methodology for preparing and certifying the reference material of 3-amino-2-oxazolidinone(AOZ) in eel muscle lyophilisates was presented. Furazolidone was accessed to eel by dipping fish in pond with furazolidone solution at a dosage of ca 0.16 mg/L. With the metabolism of furazolidone in eel, the muscles contain a certain concentration of AOZ as furazolidone metabolite was obtained. Lyophilization of the muscles was performed in one batch and 400 bags of samples were obtained by the procedure of homogenation, cryodesiccation and irradiation. The homogeneity and stability of the sample was examined. The value of the chemical constituent of the sample was certified through the collaborative analysis program participated by 11 laboratories using isotope dilution liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry, and the uncertainty assessment was performed. The reference materials have been approved as certified reference materials by AQSIQ, China (State General Administration of the People′s Republic of China for Quality Supervision and Inspection and Quarantine) in 2009 after one year of trial period. The serial numbers is GBW(E)100180.

ObjectiveTo compare the therapeutic effects of percutaneous cervical discectomy (PCD group),percutaneous cervical disc nucleoplasty(PCN) and the association of them (PCDN) for the treatment of cervical intervertebral disk displacement and instability of cervical vertebral column.Methods From February 2003 to April 2011,171 consecutive patients with cervical disc herniation have presented at the authors' hospital and were retrospectively studied.The average age of patients was 47.8 years(ranged,21-74).Ninety-seven cases were treated with PCD,50 cases with PCN,and the other 24 cases with PCDN.Clinical result and the stability of cervical vertebral column after operation were evaluated and compared among the 3 groups.ResultsAll cases had been followed up for a median of 4.1 years.There was significant difference in the pre- and post-operation the Japanese Orthopaedic Association(JOA) scoring system on within 3groups (PCD:t=21.85,P＜0.05; PCN:t=14.50,P＜0.05; PCDN:t=8.56,P＜0.05).All cases had been successfully operated.There was no significant difference between groups among the 3 groups in terms of the clinical outcomes(The recovery rate of JOA standard evaluation,F=2.19,P=0.12).According to Odom criteria,the excellent and good rate are as follows:81.35％ in PCD,82.44％ in PCN,83.19％ in PCDN,respectively.There was no significant difference between groups among the 3 groups in terms of the clinical success rate (P＞0.05).There was no instability of cervical vertebral column cases in 3 groups after operation(P＞0.05),and no significant difference was found in terms of cervical vertebral column stability in pre- and post-operation in each group.ConclusionAll the three operations including PCN,PCD and PCDN are safe,minimally invasive spine surgery for the treatment of cervical intervertebral disk displacement; they achieve good clinical outcomes and there are no difference on the stability of cervical vertebral column between preoperation and postoperation.

Objective To investigate the diffusion changes in ipsilateral substantia nigra after a chronic striatum infarction with diffusion tensor imaging ( DTI ) and its connotation for clinical lecture.Methods Participators underwent a DTI scan and were divided into three groups. The striatum infarction (SI) group consisted of twenty patients with chronic basal ganglia infarction with striatum involved, while the non striatum infarction (NSI) group consisted of another twenty patients with chronic basal ganglia infarctions without striatum involved. The control group consisted of twenty healthy volunteers. Before the DTI scan all patients underwent a clinical evaluation with Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) and Barthol Index,and the four patients of SI group with symptoms like Parkinson disease underwent an additional evaluation with the third subscale of Unified Parkinson' s Disease Rating Scale ( UPDRS Ⅲ ). Results Compared with NSI and control groups, the infarct side substantia nigra MD of SI group increased by 30. 86 percent (t =40.07,P=0.000) and 31.42 percent (t =42. 64,P =0.000). The FA values from the three groups were not different. There were four patients with some symptoms like Parkinson disease in SI group. Compared with those patients without symptom like Parkinson disease in SI group, the infarct side substantia nigra MD of these four patients increased by 22 percent(t = 18.03, P =0. 01 ). Moreover, the infarct side substantia nigra MD of these four patients was correlated with their UPDRS Ⅲ positively ( r = 0. 97, P = 0. 03 ).Conclusions The secondary degeneration in the ipsilateral side substantia nigra after striatum infarction could be detested quantitatively with diffusion tensor imaging. The secondary degeneration in substantia nigra may be responsible for the symptoms like Parkinson disease in striatum infarction patients.

The amino acid sequence (1-301aa) coding the human PTP1B catalytic domain (PTP1Bc) was obtained from the GenBank. The PTP1Bc gene was constructed by overlapping PCR, then was inserted into vector pET-22b(+) and expressed efficiently in E. coli BL21(DE3) under optimum condition after IPTG induction. The proteins were expressed mainly as inclusion bodies with the yield of more than 30% of total bacterial proteins. The expressed products were purified through Ni(2+)-affinity chromatographic column. After purification, the purity of the proteins was more than 95%. Western blotting analysis suggested that the purified proteins could specially combine with anti-PTP1B antibody. Enzyme activity assay showed that the protein has phosphatase activities.
