Objective To discuss the influence of the progress and result in gastic cancer operation through application of neo-adjuvant chemotherapy in multi-disciplinary team (MDT).Methods Clinical data of the patients treated in MDT model 45 cases and non-MDT model(78 cases) were respectively analyzed,and the index about pathologic change,histologic transform and operative result between the two groups were compared.Results In the index of pathologic change,the incidence of abdominal adherence and ascites and pyloric obstruction in MDT model group were obviously less than non-MDT model group( P <0.05 ).In the index of histologic transform,texture of mesentery in MDT model group was more fragile than non-MDT model group( P <0.05).In the index of operative results,the operative duration and intra-operative bleeding in MDT model group were less than non-MDT model group (P <0.05).Conclusion Neo-adjuvant chemotherapy has certain influence in gastric caneer operation,but the successful operations were performed by standard and correct procedures.Therefore,optimizing combined therapy in MDT model and constructing preoperative evaluation system with neo-adjuvant chemotherapy.

Objective To explore the relationship between the polymorphisms of the primary gout predisposing gene (BCAS3) rs11653176 locus and the incidence of gout in Han Chinese men in coastal areas of Shandong Province. Methods One hundred and fifty-two cases of patients with gout remission,68 cases of acute stage,252 patients with hyperuricemia, and 280 healthy subjects, total males, were enrolled. Genotyping the rs11653176 locus of BCAS3 gene by TaqMan probe technique. The expression level of BCAS3 gene mRNA in each PBMC was measured by RT-qPCR. The levels of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), interleukin-6(IL-6), and interleukin-18(IL-18)in serum were measured by ELISA. Results The change of allele frequency of rs11653176 locus in BCAS3 gene was associated with gout(P<0.01). BCAS3 mRNA in patients with gout was significantly higher than that of healthy people and patients with hyperuricemia(P<0.01). In gout patients, the expression level of BCAS3 gene containing C allele was higher than that of T allele(mRNA,P<0.05). The inflammatory factors in the acute phase of gout were significantly higher than those in phases of remission and hyperuricemia(P<0. 01). Conclusion Changes in the allele frequency of BCAS3 alleles rs11653176(high C, low T)may contribute to the expression of this gene,and lead to gout. And the onset of gout is closely related to the production of inflammatory factors.

OBJECTIVETo understand the association between the blood glucose levels of pregnant women in second trimester detected by 75 gram oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and the birth weight of neonates.
METHODSDemographic information collection and OGTT were conducted for 3 081 pregnant women at ≤14 gestational weeks and 24-28 gestational weeks respectively. Multiple logistic regression analysis was done to identify the factors associated with the birth weight and the risks of large for gestational age (LGA) in three levels (FPG, OGTT-1 h and OGTT-2 h) of OGTT percentile group, multiple linear regression analysis was used to evaluate the relationships between maternal glucose levels and neonate birth weight.
RESULTSPre-pregnancy obesity (24.0 kg/m2≤BMI<28.0 kg/m2) (OR=1.4, 95%CI:1.0-2.0, P=0.029) and gestational diabetes mellitus (OR=2.4,95% CI: 1.8-3.2, P<0.001) were the risk factors. Pre-pregnancy underweight (BMI<18.5 kg/m2) (OR=1.6, 95%CI: 1.2-2.2, P=0.003), preeclampsia (OR=4.0, 95%CI: 1.9-8.4, P<0.001) increased the risk for small for gestational age (SGA). Multiple linear regression analysis showed neonate birth weight was positive correlated with maternal glucose levels (β were 91.99, 33.60, 32.00, respectively, P<0.001). Percentile groups of each OGTT level was linearly positive associated with increased mean value of neonate birth weight, and so with the risk of LGA.
CONCLUSIONSThere were positive correlations between maternal glucose levels and neonate birth weight. The risk of LGA increased with the maternal glucose levels, but there was no statistical association between SGA and maternal glucose levels. FPG level is one of the predictors of LGA. Active surveillance and control of maternal glucose level can effectively reduce the risk of LGA.
