0.05). Integrin ? 5? 1 was significantly over expressed in lymph node metastatic cancer compared with that in corresponding PGC ( t =2.45, P 0.05) and it showed no correlation with integrin ? 5? 1 expression( r = 0.156, P =0.37).Conclusion Over expression of integrin ? 5? 1 is present in GC and associates with the progression of tumor, implying that it may be viewed as the indicator of invasion and metastasis and the candidate target of gene therapy of gastric cancer. However, integrin ? 5? 1 may not play an important role in the vascularization of GC.

Objective To explore the morphological, immunohistochemical characters and prognosis in one case of patients with cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma complicated with acute myeloid leukemia (C-ALCL-AML). Methods The histopathology, immunohistochemical markers and follow-up information of one case of ALCL-AML was analyzed and the correlated literature was reviewed. Results The patient, 69 year-old, female, was initially present with shin lesion on one finger and abnormal myelogram. The histopathology of shin lesion showed that tumor cells were composed of large cells with abundant cytoplasm,the nuclei were large and irregular, and were infiltrated by Neutrophil and eosinophil. The CD30,CD3 and CD43 of tumor cells were positive, but ALK negative by immunohistochemical method. The number of WBC in peripheral blood was 15.5×109/L and 51 archaeocytes were in every 100 karyotes. Bone marrow aspiration detection showed that bone marrow was hyperplasia and the ratio of myeloblast was 78 %. This patient was diagnosed as C-ALCL-AML, partly differentiation type(AML-M2a). Conclusion C-ALCL-AML is very rare. Its diagnosis is dependent on clinical data, histopathology and immunohistochemical markers. The first choice of treatment is chemotherapy, but its prognosis is poor.

Background and purpose:Now 3-dimensional conformal radiotherapy(3DCRT)and intensitymodulated radiotherapy(IMRT)are widely used in the treatment of head and neck tumor.For the parotid,this target area is located on the side of the head and the tumor has a concave shape.What kind of radiation method can be used more eriectively to achieve dose uniformity and protection organs at risk is the topic of much discussion.The postoperative irradiation of parotid tumor is varied in the techniques used.In this study,3-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT),intensity-modulated radiotherapy(IMRT)and simplified forward planned multi-segment radiotherapy (MSRT)were compared to conventional planning techniques in order to investigate the potential advantages of these new treatments.Methods:The conventional planning included the large opposed lateral fields with 2 or 3 weight ratio at the target lateral(2F-2D)and the unilateral field with mixture of 6 MV photon and electron beams(X+E).The 3D techniques included 3DCRT,MSRT and IMRT.Their dose distributions were calculated and compared for 8 patients treated in our center.Different beam arrangements were used for 3D techniques.In each case.the dose of PTV was prescribed to 60 Gy.All plans were compared using dose-volume histogram data.The conformity index(CI)and heterogeneity index(HI)of dose were used to evaluate the dose coverage of the target volume.Dose sparing of brain stem.spinal cord and the contra lateral parotid was also compared.To compare IMRT and MS RT,the timing ofplanning and radiation delivery was recorded.Results:Compared to conventional planning,the 3DCRT,MSRT and IMRT plans produced adequate target coverage,and the CI showed 3DCRT plans(0.78)produced poorer target coverage than MSRT(0.81)and IMRT(0.85).MRST and IMRT plans showed a significant reduction in maximum dose to the spinal cord,brainstem and the contra lateral parotid,compared to the conventional plans,while the 3DCRT plan did not show significant sparing of these structures.MSRT and IMRT plans produced better dose coverage among all the techniques.The efficacy of beam delivery comparing between two modulated planning showed MSRT was better.Conclusion:For postoperative irradiation of parotid cancer,3D planning techniques generated better target dose-coverage,without compromising the dose-sparing advantages of important structures.A satisfactory dose distribution can be obtained using MSRT and such a simple technique may be suitable for replacing IMRT.

· AIM:To determine whether the multifocal visual evoked potential (mfVEP) can be used as a clinical method to assess the patients with optic nerve disease.· METHODS: Fifteen patients with optic nerve disease were examined in this study. All patients underwent visual acuity examination, slit-lamp inspection, ophthalmoscopy, Goldmann perimeter, fundus fiuorescein angiography, visual field and mfVEP. Although these patients with unilateral optic nerve damage,data from both eyes were included in the analysis.· RESULTS:In all patients the visual fields defect was demonstrated on the mfVEP and showed good correspondence in location of the scotoma. However, we also found some slight difference between visual field and mfVEP. In some locations, when the local visual fields were normal, mfVEP showed that its amplitude reduced. In reverse, when the local mfVEP seemed normal, visual field showed abnormity.· CONCLUSION:Multifocal visual evoked potential could be used as a clinical diagnosis option in patients with optic nerve disease. Local monocular damage to the optic nerve can be measured by an interocular comparison of the mfVEP.
