Objective To evaluate the efficacy of intravenous laser treatment for varicose great saphenous veins of lower limbs. Methods .Intravenous laser treatment in combination with surgical procedure was used to treat 126 cases of varicose great saphenous vein (150 limbs) in this hospital between July 2002 and May 2004. Results .The operation time was 30~50 min (mean, 45 min). A follow-up for 3~19 months (mean, 6 months) in 120 cases (142 limbs) was carried out. Out of the 142 limbs, symptoms of soreness and lacking in strength completely disappeared in 134 limbs (94.4%) and partially subsided in 8 limbs (5.6%). A complete disappearance of symptoms of skin pigmentation and swelling was achieved in 45 limbs (90.0%, 45/50) and 97 limbs (96.4%, 97/101), respectively. The varicose superficial veins vanished in all the limbs without recurrence. Complications included skin burn on the medial malleolus (2 cases) or anterior shank (2 cases), numbness and hypoesthesia on the medial shank (3 cases), and subcutaneous cord-like hard tubercles (32 cases, which were completely softened and absorbed 3 months later). Conclusions .Intravenous laser treatment is a reliable method in the treatment of varicose great saphenous veins, with simplicity of performance, good safety, little influence of normal activities, and excellent cosmetic results.

Objective To assess the feasibility for the automated treatment planning verification system Mobius3D (M3D) to perform an independent 3D dose calculation in intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) for cervical cancer.Methods Twenty patients with cervical cancer were randomly selected.With treatment planning systems (Pinnacle,Version 9.2;Eclipse,Version 13.5),all IMRT plans were divided into 7 fields to meet the dosimetric goals.The optimized plans were exported to the M3D server.The percentage differences in the volume of region of interest (ROI) and the dose calculation of target volume and organ at risk (OAR) were evaluated for the two treatment planning systems,and theγ passing rate was used to assess the accuracy of M3D calculation.Results The difference in the volume of ROI for Pinnacle 9.2 to M3D was less than that for Eclipse 13.5 to M3D,with maximum differences of 0.22％±0.69％ and 3.5％±1.89％ for Pinnacle 9.2 and Eclipse 13.5,respectively.The differences in the dose calculation of target volume and OAR for the two treatment planning systems to M3D were within ± 1％.After recalculating by M3D,the dose difference between Pinnacle 9.2 and M3D was smaller than that between Eclipse 13.5 and M3D,but the mean differences were all within ±3％.The γ passing rates for target volume and OAR were more than 95％ on average.Conclusions The method of utilizing the automated treatment planning verification system to validate the accuracy of plans is convenient.It can be used as a secondary check tool to improve accuracy in IMRT dose calculation.

Objective To compare the prognosis of sentinel node-positive breast cancer patients forgoing axillary lymph node dissection.Methods A systematic literature search (Medline,Embase,Cochrane Library)ended in April 2014 was performed to identify all eligible articles.Two reviewers independently screened and extracted data.RevMan5 was used for statistical analysis.Results A total of 1026 abstracts were retrieved and 18 clinical controlled studies finally included,the total number of patients were 47 894,7389 had micrometastases in sentinel lymph node,35 217 had macrometastases in sentinel lymph node and 5288 had positive sentinel lymph node regardless of micrometastases or macrometastases.For patients with MIC,the 5-year axillary recurrence rate,5-year disease free survival and 5-year overall survival had no significant difference between patients who only received sentinel lymph node biopsy and patients who received further axillary lymph node dissection,(OR =1.78;95％ CI:0.72-4.39,P=0.21),(OR =0.76,95％CI:0.56-1.04,P=0.08),(OR=0.77,95％CI:0.43-1.40,P=0.39).For patients with MAC,the 5-year axillary recurrence rate had no significant difference between patients who only received sentinel lymph node biopsy and patients who received further axillary lymph node dissection,(OR =1.21;95％ CI:O.76-1.91,P =0.42).For patients with positive sentinel lymph node regardless of micrometastases or macrometastases,the 5-year axillary recurrence rate and 5-year overall survival had no significant difference between patients who only received sentinel lymph node biopsy and patients who received further axillary lymph node dissection,(OR =1.29;95％ CI:0.92-1.80,P =0.14),(OR =0.96,95％ CI:0.64-1.45,P =0.84).Conclusions Among patients with limited positive SLN of breast cancer,patients forgoing ALND compared with ALND did not have obvious affect on long-term survival.

Objective To study the effects of endoplasmic reticulum stress on liver damage in young rats fed with high-fat diet.Methods We divided 48 male weaned young rats randomly into high-fat diet group and control group,which were separately fed with high-fat diet and normal diet.After feeding 8,12 and 1 6 weeks,the body weight and visceral fat of the rats were measured.The serum liver function was measured.The morphology of livers was observed by HE and transmission electron microscopy. The mRNA expressions of ATF6 and GRP78 in hepatocytes were measured with RT-PCR.Results ① The body weight and visceral fat weight of rats in high-fat diet group increased compared with those in control group (P <0.05).② Alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase in high-fat diet group increased slightly over time (P >0.05);alanine aminotransferase at week 1 6 was increased significantly compared with that in controls (P < 0.05 ).③ Liver cells in high-fat diet group had steatosis at week 8 and the steatosis became more serious between week 12 and week 1 6.④ In high-fat diet group at week 8 there were a large number of lipid droplets in the cytoplasm,and the cell structure was close to that of normal cells;rough endoplasmic reticulum was nearly normal and the ribosome was visible.At week 12 and week 1 6,besides a large number of lipid droplets,we could also see that some substances with line-like structure deposited in rough endoplasmic reticulum pool.⑤ The expressions of ATF6 and GRP78 mRNA in hepatocytes in high-fat group at weeks 8, 12 and 1 6 were significantly increased compared with those in control group (P <0.05). Conclusion High-fat diet in infants can cause visceral fat accumulation,fatty degeneration of hepatocytes and liver injury.ATF6-mediated endoplasmic reticulum may be closely related to the liver injury which results from highfat diet.
