A total of 115 patients with Hoshimoto thyroiditis were classified under 2 groups: one group being treated with selenium and L-throxine (L-T4) and other group with L-T4 alone.All patients were followed up for 3 months.In the selenium treated group thyroid peroxidase antibody level was decreased in 33 patients (56%) and thyroglobulin antibody level was decreased in cases.

Eight-weeks old C57BL/6J male mice were treated with normal or high fat diet for4 weeks,and then bone mass,number and activity of osteoclasts,differentiation of osteoblasts from bone marrow mesenchymal cells and the change in lipid genes expression were studied.Compared with the normal diet treated group,bone mass of femur from high fat diet treated animal was decreased,but there were increased number and activity of osteoclasts and raised lipid genes expression levels.Besides,no obvious change was found in differentiation of osteoblasts from bone marrow mesenchymal cells.The loss of bone mass induced with high fat diet in young mice was mainly due to increased activity of osteoclasts and bone resorption.

Objective To verify the effectiveness of electrical impedance tomography (EIT) with multi-layer electrodes in gastric emptying measurement by simulation experiments using EIT with three-layer electrodes.Methods Firstly,EIT system with three-layer electrodes and gastric emptying measurement simulation equipment was designed and constructed to simulate gastric emptying process and obtain EIT reconstruction images.Secondly,the region where the electrical characteristic of gastric changes was selected as region of interest.Finally,the relative impedance change rate in region of interest for every image obtained from all three layers was consecutively recorded,then the gastric emptying curve was formed and gastric emptying time was calculated.Results There are obvious differences among the sharp of impedance change curves of interested region for three layers,and the gastric emptying time and process of each layer is also different from one another.It is suggested that the passing path and emptying manner of food in gastric emptying process reflected by EIT images varied from layer to layer.Therefore,the necessity and feasibility of using EIT with three-layer electrodes in gastric emptying measurement study is verified.Conclusions EIT with three-layer electrodes can provide more abundant information of gastric motility function associated with gastric emptying pathology and physiology state.It is likely to be a noninvasive,convenient and effective imaging method for the detection and evaluation research on gastric emptying and gastric motility.

Objective To explore the effect of applying problem-based learning (PBL) combined with ' pre-resident physician' teaching model in clinical practice in the nephrology department.Methods Sixty students in clinical practice were divided into two groups:experimental group and control group.The students in experimental group were received PBL in combination with 'pre-resident physician' teaching model while those in control group were received traditional teaching model.The effect was evaluated according to the results of theoretic examination and investigation.The results were analyzed by x2 test and P < 0.05 signified statistically significant.Results The average score of theoretic examination in experimental group was 80.22 while that in control group was 76.53.The students in experimental group had significant higher score than those in control group (P < 0.05 ).The overall satisfaction degree was 93.00% in experimental group concerning the 8 indicators in PBL combined 'pre-resident physician' teaching model,while that was 73.75 % in control group concerning the 8 indicators in traditional teaching mode.Concerning the aspects of teaching flexibility,arousing learning interest,training literature capacity and improving ability of independent problem solving,the satisfaction degree was higher in experimental group than in control group (P < 0.05 ).Conclusion PBL in combination with ' pre-resident physician' teaching model has evident advantages in clinical practice in nephrology department.

Objective:To study the incidence, clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment of angioimmunoblastic T-cell Lymphoma (AITL). Methods:We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 31 patients with AITL treated in the tumor hospital of Harbin Medical University between January 1995 and January 2008. We also analyzed the incidence, clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment of AITL. Results:The complete response rate and partial response rate of the entire group were 54.8%and 16.1%, respectively. The overall response rate was 70.9%, and the median survival time was 27.3 months. The five-year survival rate of the entire group was 35%. The response rate was 76.5%in the CHOP group and 75%in the COP group. No significant differences were detected between two groups (P>0.05). Con-clusion:The symptoms and signs of ATIL differ in different sites. The COP and CHOP regimens have similar efficacy and tolerable side effects.

Objective To explore the effect of lymph node metastases in gastric cancer on vagniae vasorum of gastric vessels,in order to provide evidence for the surgical treatment of gastric cancer.Methods The study included 90 specimens of left and right gastric arteries from 47 patients who underwent radical gastrectomy for carcinoma from January 2004 to 2006.All specimens were dealt with frozen section method,then they were stained with HE and immunohistochemical method respectively.Results Metastatic cancer cells were not found inside vagina vasorum in stage Ⅰ specimens.Cytokeratiu positive of tumor cens in or on vagina vasorum was showed on 25 slices from 10 tumors.Among them,2 slices from 1 tumor belonged to stage Ⅱ.8 slices from 3 tumors belonged to stage Ⅲ and 15 slices from 6 tumors belonged to stage Ⅳ.There was significant differences among cytokeratin positive rate in different stages of gastric cancer(P<0.01).Conclusion Vaginae vasorum dissection is recommended when clearing lymph node around arteries in radical gastrectomy for carcinomas in stage Ⅱ above.

Objective To analyze the features of CT images of secondary pulmonary lymphoma. Methods The dats of totally 20 patients with secondary pulmonary lymphoma which were proven through lung puncture pathology or clinical treatment were retrospectively analyzed. There were 19 non-Hodgkin lymphoma cases and 1 Hodgkin lymphoma case. All cases received thorax CT scanning, and 13 of them had enhanced CT scanning. Results There were many patterns in our CT findings for secondary pulmonary lymphoma, mixed pattern in 9 cases, mass (nodule) in 4 cases, pneumonic-alveolar in 3 cases, bronchovascular-lymphatic in 3 cases, and miliary in 1 case. There were 13 cases accompanying with mediastinal lymphadenovarix, 5 cases with pleura invasion, 11 cases with pleural effusion, and 2 cases with pericardium involvement. Mild enrichment was found in 7 cases and obviously enrichment was seen in 1 case. Conclusion Diversity is the characteristic feature of secondary pulmonary lymphoma. Combined with other thorax findings, CT scaning can make a definite diagnosis.
