ObjectiveTo explore the characteristics of phonological encoding of Chinese disyllabic compound words in patients with mild cognition impairment(MCI). Methods10 patients with MCI and 10 normal controls who matched with the age, gender, level of education and handedness performed homophone judgment task. In this task, a picture with a disyllabic compound name was presented, after 100 ms of the presentation there would be a Chinese character below the picture. Subjects were asked to judge whether one of the morpheme in the picture name was homophonic to the character. The reaction time and error ratio were analyzed statistically. ResultsIn the normal controls, the reaction time for the second constituents was shorter than that for the first constituents, while there were no difference between the first and second constituents reaction time in MCI patients. The error ratio of the first and second constituents showed no difference in normal controls, but MCI patients made more error rate for the first constituents. ConclusionAs the heathy elderly,the MCI patients have same pattern in phonological coding of Chinese disyllabic compound words, but much slower in activation speed, indicating the impairment of semantic memory and phonological activation in patients with MCI.

Objective To discuss the ultrasound imaging of acardia twin before and after spontaneously blood blocked in twin reversed arterial perfusion sequence (TRAP), and to analyze the inlfuence factor for the prognosis of pump twin. Methods Seven TRAP with pump twins and acardia′s blood lfow blocked were diagnosed by US and autopsy in Hubei Women and Children′s Hospital between 2001 January to 2012 September. The ultrasound images, clinical data and pump twin’ outcome were analyzed. Results Ultrasound images showed skin edema, acardia, spine and lower limbs in seven acardia cases before blood blocked, among which 4 were acardius acephalus, 3 were acardius anceps. Single umbilical artery were detected in 7 cases with reversed umbilical artery perfusion toward fetus. Four cases had rare blood lfow (UA-PI ratio<0.7. Five acardia cases had slower growing rate than the pump twin. Ultrasound images showed no growing, no blood lfow in the acardia, the acardia twin became vagued in the second and third trimester, and ifnally developed into a paper fetus. A linear umbilical cord extend from umbilical region to placenta were found in 7 cases whose blood lfow were spontaneously blocked. Pump twin′s outcome:3 pump twins survived, 3 died in uterus, and 1 was induced labor due to hydrocephalus and cardiac failure. The most important factors that affected the prognosis of pump twin included:faster growing in acardia twin with less blood supply, abnormal brain and heart function in pump twin, chromosome abnormalities, abnormal amniotic fluid and cord entanglement. Conclusions Less blood flow and slow growth speed prompt in acardia twin suggested spontaneously acardia blood block. It is mandatory to monitor the pump twin after the spontaneous block of acardiac’s blood lfow.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the role of galactomannan (GM) detection in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) in the diagnosis of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) in elderly patients with lung diseases.MethodsThe elderly patients with lung diseases and suspected of having IPA were enrolled. BALF for culture and GM detection, and serum samples for GM detection were obtained from all participants.According to European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer/Mycoses Study Group (EORTC/MSG) with host factors, clinical criteria, mycological evidence and histological or cytopathological evidence, all patients were categorized into the proven, probable,possible and no IPA patients. The IPA patients were considered as IPA group while no IPA was considered as control group. ResultsAmong 76 enrolled elderly patients, 18 cases were diagnosed with IPA (1 proven, 11 probable and 6 possible), the remained 58 patients were as control group.Based on a GM index cutoff value of ≥0. 5, the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value for BALF were 83.3％, 82. 8％, 60.0％ and 94.1％, respectively; these variables in serum were 55.60％ , 91.4 ％, 66.7 ％ and 86.9％ , respectively. Using a GM index cutoff value of ≥1.0, the specificity and positive predictive value of both BALF GM and serum GM reached 100％, but the sensitivity and negative predictive value of BALF GM were higher than serum GM (66.7％ vs. 22.2％, 90.60％ vs. 80.60％, respectively). Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis yielded a sensitivity of 83.4％ and a specificity of 96.6％ at a BALF GM index cutoff value of ≥0.725. ConclusionsGM detection in BALF seems to be a useful tool in the diagnosis of IPA in elderly patients with lung diseases,and could be widely used in future.

BACKGROUND:Hematopoietic reconstruction of malignant tumor in hematopoietic system is related to disease itself,pretreatment program and therapeutic tool after transplantation;especially,mobilization.collection and cryopreservation of auto-peripheral blood stem cell play a key role in successful reconstruction of hematopoietic system after transplantation.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the reconstruction of hematopoietic system through mobilization, collection and cryopreservation of auto-peripheral blood stem cell in patients with malignant tumor and analyze the effective factors on quantity and quality of auto-peripheral blood stem cell.DESIGN:Case analysis based on malignant tumor in hematopoietic system.SETTING:Department of Blood,Guangzhou General Hospital of Guangzhou Military Area Command of Chinese PLA;Department of Blood,Zhujiang Hospital,Nanfang Medical University.PARTICIPANTS:A total of 18 patients with malignant tumor in hematopoietic system were selected from Department of Blood,Guangzhou General Hospital of Guangzhou Military Area Command of Chinese PLA.Their ages ranged from 1 6to 56 years.Among them,2 patients had acute myelogenous leukemia(AML),1 acute lymphoblastic Ieukemia(ALL),2 lymphoblastic Ieukemia (LL),2 chronic granulocytic leukemia(CGL),4 multiple myeloma(MM),and 7 non.Hodgkin lymphoma.Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor(G-CSF)was made by Chugai Pharmaceutical Company Limited (batch number:N3G31).METHODS:①All patients were mobilized with associated chemotherapy+G-CSF.Associate chemotherapy:Patients with leukemia were given 2 g/m2 arabinosyl cytosine every 12 hours from lhe first to the third days and 200 mg/m2 etoposide or 50 mg/m2 fludarabine from the first to the fifth days. In addition patients with MM were treated with arabinosyl cytosine as the same way mentioned above and with 1 g/m2 cyclophosphamide from the first to the second days. And patients with lymphoma were given 2 g/m2 cyclophosphamide from the first to the second days. When numbers of leucocyte of all patients decreased below 1.0×109L-1 after chemotherapy.G-CSF started mobilization and the collection was stopped with 5μg/(kg·d)subcutaneous injection.②When numbers of leucocyte increased to (4.0-10.0)×109 L-1,hemopoietic stem cells of peripheral blood were collected till the amount of mononuclear cells≥4.0×108/kq or numbers of CD34+ cells≥2.0×108/kg.And then,the samples were dealt with cooling device.maintained in liquid nitrogen at-196℃ and defrosted in water bath at 37-40℃.③Focal sites of patients were pretreated with local irradiation with 200 cGy/time and 5 times/week for 4 successive weeks.The total dosage was 40 Gy.At 48 hours later,(55.3±28.7)mL hemopoietic stem cells of peripheral blood were transfused back. And the duration from transfusion to collection was about(56.5±22.3)days.300 μg/d G-CSF was subcutaneously injected into all patients at 1 day after transplantation and the reaction was stopped at the phase of neutrophil≥0.5×109L-1. Finally. Refusing-staining rate of trypan blue of peripheral blood stem cell, amount of mononuclear cells, number of granulation-monophyly progenitor cell colony and percentage of CD34+ cells were detected before and after thaw.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:①Collection of auto-peripheral blood stem cell;②survival rate and related markers of auto-peripheral blood stem cell after cryopreservation;③hematopoietic reconstruction of auto-peripheral blood stem cell after transplantation.RESULTS:All 18 patients with malignant tumor in hematopoietic system were involved in the final analysis.The mean collection time of auto-peripheral blood stern cell was 12.6 days after chemotherapy.the collection times were 1.9.total number of leucocyte was(8.93±1.27)×1 0.L-1 on the first day,and collection rate of mononuclear cell was (138.33±28.61)%. ②Refusing-staining rate of trypan blue of auto-peripheral blood stem cell was similar before and after cryopreservation[(96.26±1.33)%, (92.75±2.04)%,P＞0.05].in addition,after cryopreservation,recovery rates of mononuclear cells,CD34+ cells and granulation-monophyly progenitor cell were(91.96±1.37)%, (85.94±0.64)%and (87.69±4.53)%,respectively.Collection rate of mononuclear cells,number of granulation-monophyly progenitor cell colony and percentage of CD34+ cells were lower in patients with myeloma than in those with leukemia and lymphoma (t=2.524-3.268.P＜0.05).③At 15 days after transplantation,15 patients had the neutrophil≥0.5× 109L-1;at 20 days after transplantation,blood platelet was≥20 × 100 L-1.granulation-monophyly progenitor cells[(18.67-26.82)× 105/kg] of 5 patients grew poorly if the course of chemotherapy was more than 10 times.Among them,3 patients had delayed hematopoietic reconstruction after transplantation of auto-peripheral blood stem cell.CONCLUSION:①High-dose chemotherapy combined with G-CSF can shorten collection time of peripheral blood stem cell and improve collection rate of mononuclear cells.②Increase of chemotherapy times before transplantation can affect quantity and quality of auto-peripheral blood stem cell and cause delayed hematopoietic reconstruction.
