Objective To investigate the value of X-ray and MRI in judging degree of the deltoid ligament injury after lateral malleolus fracture.Methods The data of X-ray and MRI of 41 patients with acute lateral malleolus fracture,excluding patients combined with medial malleolus fracture,were retrospectively analyzed.The medial clear space (MCS) was measured according to the mortise X-rays.The degree of injury of the superficial deltoid ligament and deep deltoid ligament was graded according to MRIs obtained from PACS (picture archiving and communication system) system.Moreover,the correlation between the width of the MCS and the degree of the deltoid ligament injury were statistically analyzed.The classification results of all patients according to the Lauge-Hansen classification based on X-rays and MRIs were recorded,respectively.Results A positive correlation was found between the width of the MCS and the degree of the deltoid ligament injury,and the optimal critical value of MCS was 7.85 mm for diagnosing complete rupture of the total deltoid ligament or the single rupture of the deep deltoid ligament,while 6.48mm for the complete rupture of the superficial deltoid ligament.Based on the MRIs,the accuracy of the results of Lauge-Hansen classification was 58.5％,and the accuracy for predicting the rupture of the deltoid ligament was 82.9％,however the degree of the deltoid ligament injury cannot be distinguished very well.Conclusion The deltoid ligament injury is common in acute lateral malleolus fracture,even though there is no medial malleolus fracture.The X-ray is still the prefenred choice for the evaluation of the ankle fracture; however the MRI is helpful in judging the degree of the deltoid ligament injury.

CD4 and CD8 T cells are key players in the immune response against both pathogenic infections and cancer. CD4 T cells provide help to CD8 T cells via multiple mechanisms, including licensing dendritic cells (DCs), co-stimulation, and cytokine production. During acute infection and vaccination, CD4 T cell help is important for the development of CD8 T cell memory. However, during chronic viral infection and cancer, CD4 helper T cells are critical for the sustained effector CD8 T cell response, through a variety of mechanisms. In this review, we focus on T cell responses in conditions of chronic Ag stimulation, such as chronic viral infection and cancer. In particular, we address the significant role of CD4 T cell help in promoting effector CD8 T cell responses, emerging techniques that can be utilized to further our understanding of how these interactions may take place in the context of tertiary lymphoid structures, and how this key information can be harnessed for therapeutic utility against cancer.

To search for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) biomarkers,laser capture microdissection (LCM) was used to purify the target cells from NPC and normal nasopharyngeal epithelial tissues (NNET). Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) was performed to separate the total proteins of microdissected NPC and NNEC,PDQuest software was applied to analyze 2-DE images,and the differential protein spots between the two types of tissues were identified by both MALDI-TOF-MS and ESI-Q-TOF-MS. The expression of cytokeratin 8(CK8),one of the differential proteins,in the microdissected NPC and NNEC as well as 4 NPC cell lines with different differentiated degrees and/or metastatic potentials was detected by Western blot. Immunohistochemistry was also used to detect the expression of CK8 in paraffin-embedded tissues including 63 cases of primary NPC,28 cases of NNET and 20 cases of cervical lymphonode metastasis. In the present study,2-DE patterns of microdissected NPC and NNEC were established,and 29 differential proteins in the above two tissues were identified,of which 15 only expressed or up-regulated in NPC and 14 only expressed or up-regulated in NNET. The expression level of differential protein CK8 between the NPC and NNET was selectively confirmed,and was found to be related to the differentiation and/or metastasis of NPC cell lines. Significant down-regulation of CK8 was observed in NPC compared with NNET,and significant up-regulation of CK8 was also observed in lymphonode metastasis compared with primary NPC. The data suggest that CK8 may be related to the differentiation and lymphonode metastasis of NPC,and may serve as molecular biomarkers for metastasis and differentiation of NPC.

Objective To build the dataset of Chinese visible human female. Methods After undergoing macroscopical, CT and MRI examinations to exclude organic lesions, a young female cadaver of medium height was selected as the subject. After morphological measurement and vascular perfusion, the cadaver was embedded with 5% gelatin and cryopreserved in a -30 ℃ icehouse for 1 week. A digital milling machine TK 6350 (milling accuracy of 0.001 mm) was used to shave off slices of the body layer by layer from head to foot in a laboratory at -25 ℃. The successive cross sections were photographed with a high definition digital camera, and the pictures were put into a computer to establish a dataset of human body. By utilizing the image dataset derived from the successive cross sections, 3D reconstruction and stereodisplay of human structure were finished with a SGI Workstation which was equipped with an independently self developed software package for 3D reconstruction. Results The selected specimen, a 22 year old female native of Chongqing, was 1 620 mm in height, 54 kg in weight and died of non organic disease. CT scans were made in every 1.0 mm for head and neck and every 2.0 mm for rest parts, and the thickness for MRI scans was 1.5 mm for head and 3.0 mm for rest parts. For serial cross sections, the thickness was 0.25 mm for head and 0.5 mm for rest parts. Thus, a total of 3640 slices were obtained, and the photo for every slice was saved as a 36 MB file in a resolution of 6 291 456 pixels (3 072?2 048). Finally, the complete data files reached to 131.04 GB. Conclusion ① This is the first formally reported case of Chinese visible human female, suggesting that China becomes the second country owning visible human female dataset of her population. We set up a website for the purpose of exchanging ideas and information on this subject. So, the results are issued simultaneously on the Internet (http://www.chinesevisiblehuman.com).② According to US Visible Human Project(VHP), the data of the 3 junctional parts of their female cadaver were absent because the body was cut into 4 segments. Taking the age of 59 year old into account, the visible human female's body was not exactly perfect. The sections of 0.33 mm in thickness were saved to pictures at a resolution of 2 490 368 pixels (2 048?1 216). While, the first Chinese visible human female reported here is a young female without organic disease or lesion. No sectional datum is lost for being acquired from successive sections of the whole body. The resolution of cross sectional image reaches to 6 291 456 pixels (3 072?2 048).

Objective To achieve computer visualization of the first Chinese visible male and female Methods After acquisition of the dataset of the first Chinese visible male and female (2 518 cross sections were obtained from the visible male, the complete data files take up 90 468 GBs; while 3 640 cross sections from the female, the complete data files take up 131 04 GBs ), we processed 2 D images in an SGI Workstation and on P4 computer respectively Then, image registration was performed through reserved scaling point Reconstruction was achieved by two approaches: volume rendering reconstruction and surface rendering reconstruction Results We visualized the whole body and special parts of Chinese visible male and female on an SGI Workstation and a personal computer respectively Furthermore, by optimizing 3 D reconstruction and data processing technique, interactive 3 D visualization of the dataset was achieved Conclusions ①The dataset of the first Chinese visible male and female proves to be eligible for 3 D visualization research ②The platform setup of interactive 3 D visualization of Chinese visible male and female dataset provides foundation for digital human anatomy and virtual surgery ③The models of human organs and parts built through data segmentation, classification, registration and drawing lay basis for rendering complex structures of the whole human body delicately

Objective To establish more detailed dataset of Chinese visible human male. Methods After undergoing macroscopical, CT and MRI examinations to exclude organic lesion, a young aged, middle sized male cadaver was selected as the subject. First, morphological measurement and vascular perfusion were performed. Second, after embedding with 5% gelatin, the cadaver was put in ice house and frozen to -30 ℃ for 1 week. Third, TK 6350 numerical control milling machine (milling accuracy of 0.001 mm) was used to shave off slices of the body layer by layer from head to foot at -25 ℃ in low temperature laboratory. Fourth, the successive cross sections were photographed with high resolution digital camera and scanned into an animation computer. Thus, data acquisition from cadaver model was completed to obtain structural dataset of the human body. Results The selected sample was a 21 year old, 1 820 mm in height, 66 kg in weight male died due to non organic disease. CT with 1.0 mm slice thickness for the head and neck and 2.0 mm for the rest of the body was performed. MRI with 1.5 mm slice thickness for the head and neck and 3.0 mm for the rest of the body was also performed. A total of 18 398 serial cross sections with the thickness of 0.1 mm of each section were obtained. The digital photographs were sampled at a resolution of 10 989 056 (4 064?2 704) pixels. The data file of each section occupies 62.9 MB. The complete data files occupy 1 157.23 GB. The research results are issued simultaneously on the Internet (http://www.chinese visiblehuman.Conclusion ① Review of the related literatures reveals that the thinnest thickness of the reported cross section of the visible human dataset is 0.2 mm(the thickness of the sections of the skull base of the first case of Chinese visible human reported by our research group is 0.1 mm.), and the slices consist of several thousands of serial cross sections with several millions of pixels. The data files occupy several tens of GB or more than 100 GB. However, the thickness of the cross sections of the whole body of the dataset achieved in our research is 0.1 mm. The total slices consist of 18 398 serial cross sections with the photographic resolution of 11 million pixels and the total data file reaches 1 157.23 GB. The three indexes mentioned above are elevated by 1 log unit. ② We have solved the key technical problems in data acquisition of visible human such as super thin serial cross sectioning, enormous quantity of data storing and display of tiny blood vessels.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of oral nutritional supplementation (ONS) on the nutritional status and quality of life in patients with colorectal cancer and postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy.Methods:This study was registered in the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR-TRC-13003798). A multi-center randomized controlled trial was conducted. Colorectal cancer patients who underwent radical surgery and postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy, and had nutritional risk (nutrition risk screening 2002 score ≥3) when discharge from hospital in six hospitals (Beijing Hospital, Peking University Third Hospital, Guangzhou Nanfang Hospital, Shanghai Xinhua Hospital, Shanghai Ruijin Hospital, and Shanghai The Sixth People's Hospital) from June 2013 to August 2015 were prospectively enrolled. These patients were randomly divided into the ONS group and control group. Patients in the ONS group received dietary guidance and oral nutritional supplements (2092 kJ/day, whole protein enteral nutrition) for 90 days after discharge from hospital, while patients in the control group only received dietary guidance. Anthropometric measurements (body weight, body mass index [BMI], upper arm circumference, gripping power of the dominant hand, triceps skin fold), nutrition-related laboratory tests (hemoglobin, albumin, prealbumin, total cholesterol, triglyceride), gastrointestinal function scores and quality of life (evaluated by EuroQol five dimensions questionnaire) were collected and compared at baseline (at discharge), and at 30-day, 60-day and 90-day after discharge.Results:A total of 90 patients were included into this multi-center study, of whom 5 patients dropped out, 43 patients were assigned to the ONS group and 42 patients to the control group. Compared with baseline, the body weight of patients in the ONS group increased by (1.523±0.525) kg at 60-day and (1.967±0.661) kg at 90-day, which were significantly higher than those of patients in the control group [60-day: (-0.325±0.518) kg, P=0.015; 90-day: (-0.224±0.705) kg, P=0.027, respectively]. A similar pattern was observed for BMI, the ONS group increased by (0.552±0.203) kg/m 2 at 60-day and (0.765±0.205) kg/m 2 at 90-day, which were significantly higher than those of patients in control group [60-day: (-0.067±0.202) kg/m 2, P=0.034; 90-day: (0.022±0.210) kg/m 2, P=0.013]. No significant differences of other anthropometric measurements and nutrition-related laboratory tests were found between the two groups (all P>0.05). Furthermore, there were no significant differences of improvement in gastrointestinal function and quality of life between two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusion:Oral nutritional supplements can improve the body weight and BMI of colorectal cancer patients with nutritional risk receiving postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy, though it does not improve the quality of life.
