Objective To evaluate the clinical features and treatment outcomes of ocular posteriorsegment syphilis.Methods The clinical data of 24 patients with active ocular syphilis wereretrospectively reviewed.The diagnosis was made first in eye clinic,and verified by treponema pallidumparticle agglutination(TPPA)and rapid plasma reagin(RPR).The patients,17 males and 7 females,aged from 30 to 63 years with an average of 47.6 years.The duration of symptoms ranged from 3 days to2 years with an average of 5.8 months(≤1 month,7 cases;1-3 month,5 cases;3-6 months,5 cases;>6 months,7 cases).There were 18 bilateral cases and 6 unilateral cases.The result of humanimmunodeficiency virus(HIV)test was negative for all cases.Twenty-three patients received systemicpenicillin therapy and 1 patient was treated with oral erythromycin due to penicillin allergy.Beforetreatment,the mean visual acuity was 0.17±0.1 9,the mean titer of RPR was 1:84.The follow-up periodwas half a year.Results The major ocular manifestations included bilateral(16 cases)or unilateral(1case)chorioretinitis,unilateral retinal vasculitis(2 cases),unilateral neuroretinitis(2 cases),andbilateral(2 cases)or unilateral(1 case)optic neuritis.The mean follow-up visual acuity was 0.60±0.29,the mean follow-up titer of RPR was 1:18.8.Some patients had got the diagnosis and prompt treatment atthe early stage of the disease and their visual acuity recoveried very well.Conclusions The majormanifestion of ocular posterior segment syphilis is chorioretinitis.It is important tO consider the possibilityof syphilis when patients have inflammation of posterior segment.Prompt serology examination andpenicillin treatment are the keys to cure ocular syphilis.

The pathogenesis of cancer and related treatment were discussed.With regard to cancer,WANG emphasized the vital qi tangled theory,evil dominant theory,theory of blood stasis resulting tumor,non-blood stasis theory,sputum and toxin harm theory.As for cancer treatment,method of expelling stagnation,regulating qi,eliminating phlegm,softening hard mass and detoxicating should be used according to the specific syndrome.

Objective To investigate the relation between expression of MMP-9 and RECK in laryngeal carcinoma and it′s clinical characteristics and to explore the biological action of laryngeal tumor. Methods 38 laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC)specimens and normal mucosa were examined for the expression level of MMP-9 and RECK protein by IHC method ( PV9000) and RT-PCR was employed to measure the expression of MMP-9 and RECK mRNA. Ten laryngeal papilloma were used for controls. Results The expression level of MMP-9 protein in carcinoma of larynx was 92.11%,which was significantly higher than that of the adjacent tissues (P

Objective To evaluate the days of hospitalization of acute transverse myelitis and its influencing factors.Methods File's of 158 patients with acute transverse myelitis as the first diagnosis in Feicheng Mining Centre Hospital were analyzed retrospectively.Access to the original medical records through the medical record number, and supplemented information, mainly including demographic data, neurological function defect degree, complications and complications.Results Hospitalization time was 4-41 d, an average of (17±6) d,including 23 patients hospitalized time ≤ 10 d(14.56％), 83 cases were ＞ 10-＜20 d(52.53％), 52 cases was≥20 d(32.91％).Age and Neurological score comparative differences are statistically significant (F=60.90,8.68, P＜0.05).Payment method, deep vein thrombosis, comparative differences were statistically significant(x2 =20.04, 14.27, 12.17,9.37,7.05;P＜0.05).There were ralationship between acute transverse myelitis with age, neurological score, payment (OR =1.140, 0.500,83.930,0.041;P＜ 0.005).Conclusion The degree of neurologic impairment is the most important influencing factors of acute transverse myelitis.Controlling hospital infection, preventing deep vein thrombosis, strengthening medical insurance management, are the effective ways to shorten the days of hospitalization of acute transverse myelitis.

There is an evidence that mitochondrial cytochrome C has dual functions in controlling both cellular energetic metabolism and apoptosis. Once released, cytochrome C, in interaction with apoptotic protease activating factors (Apaf 1), initiates the activation of the execution caspases that lead to the subsequent apoptosis. Release of cytochrome C is the result of a perturbation of mitochondrial membrane permeability. Anti apoptotic Bcl 2 family proteins function as gatekeepers to prevent the release of cytochrome C. In addition to cytochrome C, mitochondria release other apoptogenic proteins including apoptosis inducing factor (AIF) during apoptosis. These two pathways may work together to induce complete apoptosis. After transient cerebral ischemia, the release of cytochrome C occurs from mitochondria, preceding DNA fragmentation.

Objective To investigate the roles of differentiation and proliferation related proteins in neural stem cells (NSCs) in rats treated with L monosodium glutamate (MSG). Methods Tissue proteins were extracted from the rat forebrain. Western blotting was used to investigate the changes of differentiation and proliferation related proteins in NSCs in rats treated with MSG. Results Compared with those in rats of the normal control group, the related proteins (Notch1, hes5, Mash1, and NeuroD) in NSCs were significantly decreased in MSG rats at 30 and 60 d, especially for Notch1 and hes5 ( P

Objective To explore the changes of differentiation and proliferation of neural stem cells in rats treated with corticosterone (CORT). Methods Adult SD rats were administered with CORT (10 mg?kg -1 ?d -1 ) by consecutive subcutaneous injection for 14 days. Single and double immunohistochemical stainings were used to identify the neural stem cells and differentiated neural cells in adult rats. Results Compared with that in the normal control group, the number of BrdU immunohistofluorescence positive cells and BrdU+NF200, BrdU+NeuroD, BrdU+GFAP double immunostaining positive cells in the cerebral cortex, hippocampus, and hypothalamus were markedly decreased ( P

The lymphatic vessel is one of the earliest routes for systemic neoplastic metastasis. But reports on research of the lymphatic vessel have been few compared to the study for tumor vessels. In the past few years,along with advances in understanding about the construction features of the lymphatic system,work has been done to determine the anatomic fundamentals of lymphatic metastasis. Many new specifi c markers of the lymphatic endothelium had been reported, which is useful to differentiate lymphatic vessels from capillary vessels. The lymphatic vessels are usually found in the animal tumor models, human tumors and peritumoral tissues. Furthermore, the molecular mechanism of lymph-angiogenesis has been discovered, which provide effective targets for anti-lymphatic metastasis of malignant tumors, make optimization of individualized treatment strategy possible to restrain lymph-angiogenesis of malignant tumors and so it could benefi t in improving patients' prognosis and survival.
