Objective To survey the CT radiation dose to cancer patients,and to compare it with diagnostic reference level (DRL) provided by newly issued national standard.Methods Computed tomography dose index weighted (CTDIw) of 5 CT equipments was measured by the standard phantom with typical scanning protocol and radiation dose parameters including average computed tomography dose index volume (CTDIvol),dose length product (DLP),75％ DLP with 900 adult and 300 pediatric cancer patients were collected.According to age stage,effective dose was estimated.Results The measured CTDIw for head scanning was on the same level with DRL,while lumbar vertebra and abdominal scanning were lower than DRL.To adults,DLP of cerebrovascular enhanced scanning and effective dose of abdominal enhanced scanning were the highest.To pediatric patients,there was no significant difference in DLP among different ages.Conclusion CTDI only reflects the dose contribution from a slice,but do not reflect the cumulative dose.For the patients need multiphase scanning,because they may be exposed to high dose,national standard should provide DLP value as the diagnostic reference level.Using individual scanning protocol is an effective method to reduce radiation dose of pediatric patient.

Objective To analyze contrastly the effect of 89SrCl2 for bone metastasis in Uygur and Han patients with prostate cancer.Methods The curative effects in 75 Uygur and 82 Han patients with prostate cancer bone metastasis were investigated after intravenous injection with 89SrCl2,including palliation of pain.SPECT was used to detect the change of metastasis,level of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) were detected by electrochemiluminescence immunoassay.Results After treated with 89SrCl2,the palliation rate,the bone metastases and the level of IL-6 were higher in Uygur patients [82.67 ％ (62/75),75 ％ (56/75),(4.24±1.74) pg/ml] than those in Han patients [60.98 ％ (50/82),52.44 ％ (43/82),(2.81±2.38) pg/ml],and there were statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion 89SrCl2 is more effective for the Uygur patients with prostate cancer bone metastasis than the Han patients,clinical workers should pay more attention to this.

Objective:To understand the level of iodine nutrition in the areas with iodine deficiency and high iodine in Anyang City of Henan Province, and to provide a basis for taking targeted prevention and treatment measures and scientific adjustment of intervention strategies.Methods:In 2019, three areas with iodine deficiency (median iodine in water < 10 μg/L) and three areas with high water iodine (median iodine in water > 100 μg/L) were selected from counties (cities and districts) in Anyang City by stratified random sampling. Children aged 8-10 and pregnant women were selected in areas with high iodine and areas with iodine deficiency, respectively. Urine samples and salt samples were collected and tested, and children's thyroids were examined by B-mode ultrasound.Results:A total of 654 salt samples were collected in iodine deficiency areas, among which non-iodized salt accounted for 1.83% (12/654). A total of 628 salt samples were collected from areas with high iodine, among which non-iodized salt accounted for 6.05% (38/628). The difference in non-iodized salt rate between the two areas was statistically significant (χ 2=15.19, P < 0.05). A total of 654 urine samples were collected from children in iodine deficiency areas, with a median of 211.15 μg/L of urinary iodine, and 628 urine samples were collected from high iodine areas, with a median of 390.50 μg/L of urinary iodine. The difference was statistically significant ( U=- 18.34, P < 0.05). A total of 300 urine samples were collected from pregnant women in iodine deficiency areas, with a median of 223.95 μg/L, and 127 urine samples were collected from pregnant women in high iodine areas, with a median of 258.00 μg/L. The difference was statistically significant ( U=- 4.07, P < 0.05). The thyroid volume of 560 children in the iodine deficient areas was detected, and the swelling rate was 1.43% (8/560). The thyroid volume of 628 children in high iodine areas was detected, and the swelling rate was 2.07% (13/628). Conclusion:The iodine nutrition level of the population in the iodine deficiency areas of Anyang City is appropriate, while the iodine nutrition level of the population in the water source high iodine areas is excessive.

Objective To observe the dynamic distribution of the extravasated Evans Blue (EB) dye points (neurogenic inflammatory response) at the skin after acute gastric mucosal injury (AGMI) and its relation to the related regular acupoints in the locations in rats. Methods A total of 70 Wistar rats were randomized into normal control (n=10),normal saline (n=10),and AGMI (n=50) groups. The AGMI group was further divided into 5 h,2 d,3 d,4 d and 5 d subgroups with 10 rats in each. AGMI model was duplicated by intragastric perfusion of diluted hydrochloric acid (HCl,0.5 mol/L). Evans Blue Dye (50 mg/kg,50 mg/mL in 0.9% saline) was given to the rats before AGMI modeling. The plasma extravasated EB points at the skin of the whole body were observed after removal of the hair. Results The extravasated EB points presented a nerve-segmental distribution,with the proportion of the points in the location being 47.5% for "Geshu" (BL 17),58.82% for "Jizhong" (GV 6),88.23% for "Pishu" (BL 20),82.35% for "Weishu" (BL 21),17.64% for "Zhongwan" (CV 12),and 5.88% for "Shangwan" (CV 13),respectively. The plasma extravasation of EB seldom appeared in normal rats and only fewer points were found in rats accepted administration of 0.9% saline. Significant differences were found between model and normal control groups,and between model and normal saline groups in the numbers of the extravasated EB points (P

Objective:To investigate the effect of pidotimod in reducing pulmonary infection in patients with lung cancer undergoing chemotherapy.Methods:One hundred and twenty patients with lung cancer in the Fifth People′s Hospital of Dalian City from July 2017 to July 2018 were selected. The patients were divided into control group and pidotimod group by random digits table method with 60 cases each. The patients were treated with standard two drugs chemotherapy containing platinum drug according to the pathological type, and the patients in pidotimod group were combined with pidotimod. The number of pulmonary infections during chemotherapy, number of completed scheduled chemotherapy and adverse reaction were observed. The correlation between pulmonary infection and pidotimod was analyzed by multivariate orderly Logistic regression.Results:The incidence of pulmonary infection in pidotimod group was significantly lower than that in control group: 18.33% (11/60) vs. 40.00% (24/60), and there was statistical difference ( χ2 = 6.845, P<0.01). The rate of completed scheduled chemotherapy in pidotimod group was significantly higher than that in control group: 55.00% (33/60) vs. 36.67% (22/60), and there was statistical difference ( χ2 = 4.062, P<0.05). Multivariate orderly Logistic regression analysis result showed that pidotimod could reduce the risk of pulmonary infection ( OR = 0.210, 95% CI 0.072 to 0.606, P = 0.004), and help to complete the scheduled chemotherapy ( OR = 2.323, 95% CI 1.080 to 5.003, P = 0.031). In pidotimod group, no obvious adverse reaction related to pidotimod application was detected, and chemotherapy was not affected. Conclusions:Application of pidotimod can reduce the chance of pulmonary infection in patients with lung cancer undergoing chemotherapy and help patients complete scheduled chemotherapy.

Objective: To analyze the expression of c-MET and its prognostic correlation in patients with lung adenocarcinoma. Methods: The clinical data and pathological specimen of patients with lung adenocarcinoma in Dalian 5th People′s Hospital from January 2006 to December 2011 were retrospectively analyzed. The expression difference of c-MET between lung adenocarcinoma tissue and normal adjacent tissues was compared. The correlation of c-MET with the pathology and clinical factors was also analyzed. Results: A total of 82 patients were retrospective analyzed, including 82 pathological specimens of lung adenocarcinoma and 45 specimens of normal adjacent tissues. Among 53 patients with stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ lung adenocarcinoma, 31 cases had low expression of c-MET and 22 cases had high expression of c-MET. Among 29 patients with stage Ⅲ lung adenocarcinoma, 10 cases had low expression of c-MET and 19 cases had high expression of c-MET. There was a correlation between TNM stage and c-MET positive expression in lung adenocarcinoma (P=0.037). The positive expression rate of c-MET was not significantly correlated with age, sex and differentiation degree (P > 0.05). Among 82 cases of lung adenocarcinoma, 39 cases had low expression of c-MET and 43 cases had high expression of c-MET; 45 cases of para-carcinoma tissuehad low expression of c-MET. The positive expression rate of c-MET in lung adenocarcinoma tissues was significantly higher than that in para-carcinoma tissue (P < 0.01). Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis showed that the median disease-free survival was 41.5 months in c-MET high-expression group and 55.3 months in low-expression group. The expression level of c-MET was closely related to disease-free survival in lung adenocarcinoma patients (P < 0.05). Conclusions The expression of c-MET is significantly increased in patients with lung adenocarcinoma. The expression level has relevance with TNM staging and prognosis.

Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the expression of miR-320a and cephalospermoma syndrome protein(CYLD)in patients with gastric cancer and its relationship with clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis. Methods A total of 460 patients with gastric cancer underwent tumor resection in our hospital from March 2013 to November 2014 were enrolled. Tumor tissues,non-tumor gastric mucosa tissues and normal tissues were collected. The expression of miR-320a and CYLD at levels of mRNA and protein were detected by Real-Time PCR,immunohistochemistry and Western blotting. The relationship between the expression of miR-320a and CYLD,and the clinicopathological features&prognosis of gastric cancer patients was analyzed. Results The relative expression of miR-320a and CYLD at the mRNA level in tumor tissues was(0. 37 ± 0. 09),(0. 91 ± 0. 23),and the relative expression in non-tumor tissues was(0. 86 ± 0. 15),(1. 56 ± 0. 42),respectively. The relative expression of miR-320a and CYLD mRNA in tumor tissues was significantly different from non-tumor tissues(t=60. 078,29. 113,P=0. 000),the positive ex-pression rate of CYLD protein in tumor tissues was 43. 48% when compared to 73. 91% in non-tumor tissues. The difference was statistically significant(χ2=86. 624,P=0. 003). The expression level of miR-320a was significantly associated with the diameter of the tumor and lymph node metastasis(χ2=25. 859 and 13. 742,P<0. 05). The expression of CYLD was also significantly associated with the TNM stage and degree of tumor differentiation(χ2=37. 725 and 59. 323,P<0. 05). The median survival of patients with low miR-320a expression(20. 36 months,95% CI:19. 252 ~21. 462 months) and those with high miR -320a expression(28. 29 months,95% CI:27.158~29.412 months)were statistically significant(χ2=87.967,P<0.001).The median survival of patients with CYLD negative expression(17. 70 months,95% CI:16. 599~18. 796 months)and those with CYLD positive expression(26. 74 months,95% CI:25. 474~27. 997 months)were statistically significant(χ2=109. 887,P<0. 001);The median survival of patients with the co-expressed miR-320a and CYLD was(29. 01 months,95% CI:26. 831~28. 946 months)and those with the non-co-expressed miR-320a and CYLD(17. 13 months,95% CI:17. 214~19. 568 months)were statistically significant(χ2=117. 680,P<0. 001). There showed a positive correlation between the expression of miR-320a and CYLD at mRNA level(r=0. 607,P<0. 001);miR-320a at the low expression,CYLD at the negative expression,TNM staging,lymph node metastasis and degree of tumor differen-tiation were independent risk factors for the prognosis of gastric cancer(HR=1. 939,2. 180,1. 561,1. 719,1. 608,95% CI:1. 141~3.295,1.252~3.796,1.014~2.403,1.115~2.650,1.097~2.357,respectively)(P<0.05).Conclusion The expressions of miR-320a and CYLD in tumor tissues of patients with gastric cancer is significantly decreased,which is related to the occurrence and development of diseases,and poor prognosis. It is a potential target for diagnosis and treatment of gastric cancer.

Objective:To investigate the brain characteristics of chronic schizophrenia by voxel-mirrored homotopic connectivity (VMHC).Methods:Forty seven patients with chronic schizophrenia from Tianjin Anding Hospital and 31 healthy controls from nearby communities were included in the study. The MRI data of the subjects were collected by Siemens Skyra 3.0 T MRI.Positive and negative symptoms scale (PANSS) was used to assess the illness severity of patients with chronic schizophrenia.SPM12 was used to process the collected MRI data. DPARSF was used to calculate the VMHC values of subjects in the two groups. The independent sample t test based on SPM12 was used to compare the VMHC values of the two groups. The significant brain regions in VMHC were regarded as regions of interest (ROI), and VBM8 was used to further analyze the gray matter volume of the ROI of the two groups. Results:Compared with healthy controls, the patients with chronic schizophrenia demonstrated decreased VMHC mainly located in lingual gyrus(voxel=208, T=4.98), occipital middle occipital gyrus(voxel=156, T=3.75) and postcentral gyrus(voxel=237, T=4.36) (FDR correction, q=0.05). Compared with healthy controls, the gray matter volumes in bilateral lingual gyrus(left(0.0034±0.0008), (0.0028±0.0013), t=-2.141, P=0.037; right(0.0025±0.0006), (0.0020±0.0011), t=2.268, P=0.028) and postcentral gyrus((0.0432±0.0051), (0.0372±0.0162), t=-2.070, P=0.045) increased, but non-significant change in postcentral gyrus of the patients with chronic schizophrenia. Conclusion:The abnormal VMHC mainly locate in lingual gyrus, middle occipital gyrus and postcentral gyrus in patients with chronic schizophrenia.

Objective To evaluate the sleep structure of rapid eye movement sleep disorder (RBD) patients and its correlations with emotional state,autonomic nerve system function symptoms,and sleep quality.Methods Twenty-two RBD patients examined in our hospital from October 2014 to May 2016 who complained of behavior disorders and conformed diagnosis by video-polysomnography (v-PSG) were chosen as RBD group;23 healthy gender,age and education-level matched subjects confirmed without RBD by v-PSG were selected as control group.Their emotional state,autonomic nerve function and sleep quality were assessed by center for epidemiological survey depression scale (CES-D),apathy evaluation scale (AES),scale for outcomes in PD for autonomic symptoms (SCOPA-AUT),and scale for outcomes in PD for sleep (SCOPA-SLEEP).The differences in sleep structures,periodic leg movement index (PLMI),apnea hypopnea index (AHI) and arousal index between RBD group and control group were compared.The differences of scores of emotional state,autonomic nerve system function symptoms were compared between the two groups.The correlations of sleep structure with emotional state,autonomic nerve system function symptom,and sleep quality in RBD group were analyzed.Results As compared with those of the control group,the proportion of non-rapid eye movement (NREM)-Ⅰ sleep of RBD group was significantly increased,proportions of NREM-Ⅱ sleep and NREM-Ⅲ sleep were statistically reduced,PLMI,CES-D scores,urinary and digestive system questionnaire and overall scores in the RBD group were significantly increased (P＜0.05).In patients from RBD group,CES-D scores were positively correlated with proportion of NREM-I sleep (r=0.520,P=0.000);nighttime sleepiness questionnaire and overall scores were positively correlated with PLMI (r=0.465,P=0.029;r=0.444,P=0.039);daytime sleepiness scores were negatively correlated with proportion of NREM-Ⅲ sleep (r=-0.480,P=0.041);cardiovascular system symptom was correlated with PLMI (r=0.439,P=0.041).Conclusion RBD patients suffer sleep structure disturbance,depression tendency,digestive and urinary system of autonomic nerve symptoms;sleep quality scores and total scores,cardiovascular system symptoms scores are positively correlated with LMI;daytime sleepiness is negatively correlated with reducing phase Ⅲ sleep,CES-D scores are correlated with increasing NREM-I sleep and unbalanced neurotransmitter,especially,5-TH level.
