Objective To explore and analyze the optimal timing of surgery and clinical efficacy of minimally invasive drilling drainage in the treatment of hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage .Methods 150 patients with hyperten-sive cerebral hemorrhage ,according to a random number table method ,were randomly divided into the three groups , 50 patients in each group.Patients in group A received minimally invasive drainage drilling within 6h after the onset of disease,patients in group B received minimally invasive surgery 6-24h after the onset,patients in group C were given elective minimally invasive surgery 24-72h after the onset.Another 50 patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage who received craniotomy surgery over the same period ,were selected as the control group .The clinical effects were observed and compared in four groups .Results The total effective rate of group B was 88%,which was significantly higher than the other three groups (χ2 =4.00,6.38,12.70,all P<0.05).The early cure rate of the observation group was 40%,which was significantly higher than the control group (χ2 =8.57,P<0.05).After treatment,the number of cases whose activities of daily living degree recovered to grade I in the observation group was significantly higher than the other three groups (χ2 =4.11,5.00,8.32,all P<0.05).The excellent rate of group B was 88%(44/50),which was significantly higher than the other three groups (χ2 =6.83,5.83,15.43,all P<0.05).After treatment,the incidence rate of complications in group B was significantly lower than the other three groups ,the inci-dence rate of complications in the control group was the highest (χ2 =5.32,8.58,32.97,all P<0.05).Conclusion Minimally invasive drilling drainage in the treatment of hypertension cerebral hemorrhage can obtain significant effect , the optimal timing of surgery is 6-24h,minimally invasive treatment has advantages of less invasive ,faster recovery,fe-wer complications ,and less costs ,which is worthy of widely used in clinical practice .
2.Role of TOLL-like receptor 4/MAPKs pathway of renal tissue in diabetic rats by pioglitazone
Chinese Journal of Immunology 2016;32(12):1769-1772
Objective:To study the role of TOLL-like receptor4/MAPKs pathway of renal tissue in the diabetic rats treated with piogitazone. Methods:The male Sprague Dawlry rats were randomly selected as the control group (n=8) and experimental group(n=32). The experimental rats were randomly divided into three groups. The expression of ERK1/2,JNK and p38MAPK,and levels of their phosphorylation in kidney were measured by Western blot in control group and experimental group. Results:The expression of TOLL-like receptor 4 in all renal tissue in the diabetic rats were significantlyincreased than those in control group (P<0. 01). Compared with the control group. The activity of p-ERK1/2 and p38MAPK significantly increased in each experimental group (P<0. 05),but the expression level of p-JNK was no statistical significance. TOLL-like receptor 4 could regulatory effect on the phorylation of ERK1/2 and p38MAPK. Compared with the model group,the expression of p-ERK1/2 and p38MAPK significantly decreased(P<0. 05),moreover, these changes were more significant in high-dose treated group ( P<0. 05 ) . Conclusion:Pioglitazone inhibits the expression of TOLL-like receptor 4 of renal tissue in the diabetic rats,and these effects may be related to TOLL-like receptor 4/ERK1/2 and TOLL-like receptor 4/p38MAPK pathways.

Objective To investigate the relationship between ultrasonographic features of papillary thy-roid carcinoma(PTC)and lateral cervical lymph node metastasis (LCLNM).Methods A total of 449 eligible ca-ses with 633 PTC nodules was selected and divided into two groups:LCLNM group included 135 nodules(91 pa-tients);Without metastatic groups included 498 nodules(135 patients).Ultrasonographic features of PTC nodules and the relationship with LCLNM were analyzed by χ2 test and logistic regression analysis .Results In univariate analysis,the significant factors were male,age<45yrs,multifocal,maximal diameter(d>1 cm),multi-microcal-cificaltion(d<2 mm),mixed flow,wider than tall,CCLNM,extrathyroid extension,located in upper(P<0.05 or P<0.017).Multivariate analysis showed that multi -microcalcificaltion(d<2 mm),wider than tall,CCLNM,ex-trathyroid extension,located in upper pole were predictive factors of LCLNM (P<0.005,OR=1.626,2.644, 0.479,2.579).Conclusion High-frequency ultrasound can accurately describe the sonographic appearance of thyroid nodules;it can be used to remind the risk of LCLNM before operation ,and will be informative for the treat-ment of surgery .

This paper presents a probability segmentation algorithm for lung nodules based on three-dimensional features. Firstly, we computed intensity and texture features in region of interest (ROI) pixel by pixel to get their feature vector, and then classified all the pixels based on their feature vector. At last, we carried region growing on the classified result, and got the final segmentation result. Using the public Lung Imaging Database Consortium (LIDC) lung nodule datasets, we verified the performance of proposed method by comparing the probability map within LIDC datasets, which was drawn by four radiology doctors separately. The experimental results showed that the segmentation algorithm using three-dimensional intensity and texture features would be effective.

Computer-aided detection (CAD) of pulmonary nodule technology can effectively assist the radiologist to enhance lung nodule detection efficiency and accuracy rate, so it can lay the foundation for the early diagnosis of lung cancer. In order to provide reference for the scholars and to develop the CAD technology, we in this paper review the technology research and development of CAD of the pulmonary nodules which is based on CT image in recent years both home and abroad. At the same time, we also analyse the advantages and shortcomings of different methods. Then we present the improvement direction for reference. According to the literature in recent years, there still has been large development space in CAD technology for pulmonary nodules. The establishment and improvement of the CAD system in each step would be of great scientific value.

Objective To study the effect of hypoxia on EMT molecule E-cadherin, Vimentin and invasion of human breast cancer MCF-7 cells, reveal the mechanism of breast cancer invasion and metastasis and provide experimental and theoretical basis. Methods Western blot was used to observe the change of HIF-1α, E-cadherin and Vimeutin during hypoxia on MCF-7. MTT was used to study the effects of viability.Transwell chamber was used to detect the ability of invasion and metastasis. Results The expression of E-cadherin was significantly lower (0.09±0.02)(t=30.98,P=0.0007) and the expression of Vimentin was significantly higher (0.69±0.04) (t=915,P=0.0000) with the extension of hypoxia.The capability of adhesion (81.23±0.74) (t=82.05,P=0.000),invasion(120±6) (t=22.78,P=0.0009) and migration(190±6) (t=23.49,P=0.000)was significantly increased after 72 h hypoxia(P<0.05).Conclusion Hypoxia can downregulate E-cadherin and upregulate Vimentin and enhance the adhesion,invasion and migration of MCF-7.

Prostate cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in men and related studies have achieved great breakthrough in recent years.But because of the lack of effective in vivo animal models, the process to translate basic research into clinical application has been severely hampered.Patient derived prostate tumor xenograft ( PDPTX) model is an ideal animal model in which freshly isolated tumor tissues from patients were inoculated into immunodeficient mice.This model can duplicate the heterogeneity of primary tumor in a better way and keep the tumor complexity at molecular, genetic and pathological levels.Particularly, the PDPTX model, in which the isolated tumor tissue is inoculated under the renal capsule, is even better, because it solves the clrawbacks of traditional subcutaneous inoculation model.In traditional mod-els, the success rate is low, it’s not easy for lower grade tumor to form xenograft, and it’s not easy to reconstruct metasta-sis, etc.PDPTX provides a more ideal in vivo model for prostate cancer studies.It has irreplaceable advantages, especially in target therapy, new drug screening and individualized tumor treatment.
