ObjectiveTo investigate the intelligence characteristics and relativity with motor development of children with spastic diplegia.MethodsIntelligence and motor development of 46 children with spastic diplegia were tested by Wechsler Intelligence Scale and Motor Development Milestone (MDM), to find out difference of intelligence between the children with diplegia and the normal control group.ResultsIntelligence quotient (IQ) of children with spastic diplegia was lower significantly than the normal control, specially performance IQ (PIQ). PIQ was related with motor development. The more delayed motor development was, the more lower PIQ was. Subtest scores of animal egg, puzzle, block design and picture generalization were lower in spastic diplegic children with normal IQ than that of the normal control group, while vocabulary IQ (VIQ) was not different.ConclusionThe intelligence structure of children with spastic diplegia is imbalanced and PIQ of those children is significantly lower than the normal children, which is related to hands-eyes correspond, sight-motor correspond and speed, and space-sight ability.

OBJECTIVETo observe effects and mechanism of Dinggui gel paste analgesic anti-inflammatory.

METHODSEighty-four male KM mice weighted from 18 to 22 g and aged 4 to 5 weeks were randomly divided into 7 groups, named blank group, model group, matrix control group, Votalin group, high dosage of Dinggui gel paste group with group, equivalent dosage of Dinggui gel paste group, Dinggui gel paste group, 12 mice in each group. Except blank and model group, the other groups were paste ointment for 7 days, and one time a day, matrix control group were pasted isodose blank matrix gel patch. Pain threshold were tested at 30, 60, 90 and 120 min after the last ad-ministration. Hot plate test were performed by injection of 5% formalin for 20 µL on right hindfoot sole after the last administration. The cumulative time of mice licking right rear foot were observed at stage of I and II, and content of IL-1, TNF-α were tested by ELISA method. Differences of weight between right and left ears were measured by ear swelling method and anti-inflammation experiment.

RESULTSIn hot plate test at 90 min, pain threshold in equivalent dosage of Dinggui gel paste group was (24.87 ± 14.67) s and (15.28 ± 8.23) s in model group; (26.33 ± 15.45) s in high dosage of Dinggui gel paste group and (15.31 ± 5.02) s in model group at 120 min in hot plate test, there were no statistical differences between two groups. Pain period at stage I, licking cumulative time in high dosage of Dinggui gel paste group was (66.70 ± 22.83) s and (101.80 ± 33.65) s in model group,and had significant differences between two groups; there were statistical differences in licking cumulative time at stage I of pain period among high dosage of Dinggui gel paste group (51.30 ± 43.60)s, equivalent dosage of Dinggui gel paste group (64.00 ± 47.27) sand model group (109.50 ± 36.78) s. Content of IL-1 in model group was (28.70 ± 8.24) ng/L and (13.33 ± 2.20) ng/L in high dosage of Dinggui gel paste group, there was obvious meaning between two groups; There were significant differences in TNF-α content among model group (93.60 ± 23.65) ng/L,high dosage of Dinggui gel paste group (63.21 ± 10.54)ng/L and equivalent dosage of Dinggui gel paste group (72.69 ± 16.26) ng/L; while there were no statistical meaning in ear swelling degree among model group (5.73 ± 0.80) mg,high dosage of Dinggui gel paste group (5.42 ± 0.68) mg and equivalent dosage of Dinggui gel paste group (4.98 ± 1.52) mg.

CONCLUSIONDinggui gel paste could increase pain threshold, reduce licking accumulative time, and decrease ear swelling degree, and relief pain by regulating level of TNF-α and IL-1.

Pancreatic cancer is malignant with a poor prognosis,and its incidence is rising worldwide in recent years.Multiple slices spiral computed tomography and computed angiography are the first choice for the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer,while misdiagnosis of pancreatic cancer still exists.From August 2009 to October 2011,80 patients with pancreatic or periampullary cancer were diagnosed using the medical image three dimensional visualization system (MI-3DVS).The threedimensional models of the liver,pancreas,vascular system and tumors were reconstructed successfully based on the 64-slice spiral computed tomography data.According to the analysis of the three dimensional models,4 patients underwent standard pancreaticoduodenectomy,1 received palliative surgery.MI3DVS plays an important role in the diagnosis and assessement of resectability of pancreatic and periampullary cancer.

Objective To investigate the values of three-dimensional visualization technology in the diagnosis and surgical treatment of hepatic hemangioma. Methods Thirty two patients with hepatic hemangioma who had been hospitalized during the period from July 2010 to January 2014 in our hospital were scanned by 64-slice spiral computerized tomography (CT) before surgical treatment. Three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction based on the CT data was carried out to achieve dignosis and surgical planning. Assisted with the 3D model , we chose the best surgical procedure for liver resection, protecting the major blood vessels near hemangioma and retaining normal liver tissue as far as possible. Results The location, size and shape of hepatic hemangioma, vascular variation, and spatial relationship with intrahepatic vessel were shown factually by three-dimensional reconstruction. All the hemangiomas were preoperatively assessed to be resectable. The compliance rate for preoperative surgical planning to actual surgery was 100%. Under assistance of the 3D model during surgery , 14 patients received laparoscopic hepatectomy and 18 underwent hepatectomy. Pringle′s maneuver was applied in 18 patients , with blocking time of (15.32 ± 7.12) min and blood loss of (188.63 ± 66.37) mL. The postoperative complications included pleural effusion in 5 patients and incision infection in one patients. Conclusions Three-dimensional visualization technology for the individualized diagnosis and treatment of hepatic hemangioma helps reduce surgical trauma and incidence of postoperative complications.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the prognostic factors of lymph node-negative advanced gastric cancer patients in order to guide adjunctive therapy and surveillance tragedy.

METHODSA total of 236 advanced gastric cancer patients with no less than 12 retrieved lymph nodes and without lymph node metastasis from Fujian Provincial Hospital between 1998 and 2008 were collected retrospectively. Univariate and multivariate prognostic analysis were performed.

RESULTSTwo hundred and twenty-four patients(94.9%) were followed up and 5-year overall and disease-free survival rates were 75.2% and 66.4% respectively. Univariate prognostic analysis showed that depth of infiltration, Lauren histotype and retrieved lymph nodes were associated with 5-year overall survival(all P<0.05). Multivariate prognostic analysis testified that depth of infiltration was independent prognostic predictor(P<0.05). Recurrent rates of T2 and T3 patients were 5.8%(8/138) and 14.0%(12/86),5-year overall survival rates were 82.5% and 59.0%, 5-year disease-free survival rates were 70.4% and 52.2% respectively. These differences were all statistically significant (all P<0.05).

CONCLUSIONST2N0 gastric cancer patients have a better prognosis than T3N0 patients. Depth of infiltration should be considered to stratify lymph node-negative gastric cancer patients for an adjunctive treatment and follow-up scheduling.

The link between nonresolving inflammation and cancer is well documented. On the one hand, epidemiologic evidence supports that approximately 25% of all human cancer worldwide is caused by nonresolving inflammation. On the other hand, inflammatory cells are found in the microenvironment of most, if not all, tumors. In the tumor micro-environment, inflammatory cells and molecules influence almost every aspect of cancer. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) participate in the initiation and progression of nonresolving inflammation-related cancer by regulating the key genes and related signaling pathways. Further investigation into the molecular mechanisms by which miRNAs carry out their functions will be of great value in the prevention, early diagnosis, and treatment of tumors.

OBJECTIVETo explore the feasibility of detecting FUS-CHOP fusion gene in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue and its application in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of myxoid/round cell liposarcomas (MRCLs).

METHODSForty-four formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded MRCL samples and 60 control cases (atypical/well-differentiated liposarcoma, pleomorphic liposarcoma, low-grade myofibrosarcoma, etc.) retrieved from the archival files were studied. Nested reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) technique was employed to detect the FUS-CHOP mRNA expression, followed by DNA sequencing confirmation of the PCR product. Housekeeping gene PGK was used to assess the quality of the mRNA templates.

RESULTSPGK mRNA was detected in 93 of 104 tumor cases (89.4%), including 39 MRCLs cases (39/44, 88.6%) and 90% of the negative control cases. Type II FUS-CHOP fusion transcript was successfully detected in 20 out of 39 (51.3%) MRCL cases. Type I FUS-CHOP fusion transcript was not detected in any MRCLs in this study. All 60 negative control cases were negative for the FUS-CHOP fusion gene transcripts.

CONCLUSIONS(1) Nested RT-PCR can be used to detect FUS-CHOP mRNA in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues. (2) FUS-CHOP is considered a specific molecular and genetic hallmark for MRCLs. Nested RT-PCR is a sensitive and specific technique in detecting FUS-CHOP gene, and can be used in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of MRCLs.
