Objectives To observe the pre and post-operational changes of the expressions of survivin, caspase-3 and CD44V6 in patients with colorectal cancer after intra-abdominal implantation of sustained releasing fluorouracil. Meth-ods Sixty-four patients with colorectal cancer (Dukes’stage of B and C) were divided into treatment group and control group, 32 patients in each group. The standard radical surgery was performed in two groups of patients. The fluorouracil im-plants were implanted intra-abdominally in treatment group. The peripheral blood levels of surviving and caspase-3 were de-tected by RT-PCR. The level of CD44V6 was detected by flow cytometry in two groups of patients. Results There were no significant differences in levels of survivin, caspase-3 and CD44V6 before surgery between two groups (P>0.05). The level of survivin (0.362 ± 0.183) was significantly lower at 14 days after operation in treatment group than that of control group (0.585±0.207), but the level of caspase-3 (2.001±0.146) was significantly higher than that of control group (1.654±0.111). The levels of CD44V6 were significantly lower in treatment group (1.857±0.535) and control group (3.471±0.496) after opera-tion than those before operation (9.557±1.170 and 9.729±0.943, P<0.05), and the level of CD44V6 was significantly lower in treatment group than that of control group (P<0.05). Conclusion The implant for the sustained release of fluorouracil showed a positive impact on micrometastases and prognosis of colorectal cancer, while improved the long-term efficacy of postoperative colorectal cancer.

Objective To compare the short-term efficacy and main side effects between one-week and two-week schedule of cetuximab plus chemotherapy for metastatic colorectal cancer. Methods 56 patients with metastatic colorectal cancer were enrolled, ECOG physical status 0~2, good liver and renal function, using the RECIST published in 2000 to evaluate the measurable lesions. 30 patients received oneweek schedule of cetuximab plus chemotherapy, cetuximab was administered at an initial dose of 400 mg/m~2 followed by weekly doses of 250 mg/m~2; 26 patients received two -week schedule of cetuximab plus chemotheraphy, cetuximab was administered at an initial dose of 500 mg/m~2 and the same dose was given every two weeks. The termination of the study was patients finishing 8 weeks treatment or disease progress.Results 28 patients were evaluable in one-week schedule group: CR 1, PR 7, SD 11, PD 9, RR was 28.6 %,DCR was 67.9 %. 26 patients were evaluable in two-week schedule: none of CR, PR 8, SD 9, PD 9, RR was 30.8 %, DCR was 65.4 %, and no significant difference was found(P >0.05). Grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ toxicity were rash,nausea, vomiting, neutropenia and reduction of leukemia, no significant difference was found in the two groups (P >0.05). Conclusion The therapeutic effect and safety for metastatic colorectal cancer are similar between one-week and two-week schedule of cetuximab plus chemotherapy.

Objective:
To study the different ischemic characteristics of cerebral gray matter and deep white matter in patients with chronic cerebral artery severe stenosis or occlusion.
Methods:
A retrospective study was conducted on 30 patients with chronic unilateral cerebral artery severe stenosis or occlusion from April 2014 to April 2018 in our hospital. Cerebral blood flow (CBF), cerebral blood volume (CBV), mean transit time (MTT), time of peak time (TTP) and time to delay(TTD) of cerebral cortex gray matter and deep white matter in the blood supply area of the responsible artery (the affected side) and the contralateral hemisphere (the healthy side) were measured. Statistical analysis of the perfusion parameters of cerebral cortex gray matter and deep white matter in the affected side and contralateral side were performed using SPSS13.0 software package. T test was used for variance homogeneity, and

Objective To explore the injury types and characteristics of children hospitalization with accidental injuries in a tertiary general hospital in Guangdong Province,and to provide important data evidences for reducing accidental injuries in children.Methods Children hospitalization of accidence in 2019-2021 from a tertiary general hospital were analyzed.The X2 test analysis was used for comparing different years,sources of patients and age difference between accident types.Results 1 561 children were hospitalized due to accidental injuries.The top three reasons were falling,traffic accidents and external inju-ries.There are significant differences among age groups and types of accident harm(x2=186.606,P<0.001),and significant differences among different damage rate of surgery(x2=45.017,P<0.001).The children who underwent surgery after injury were most likely to fall(72.3%).The accidental injuries occurred at home accounted for 88.8%,and therein the upper limb injuries were the main injuries(67.8%).Conclusion Accidental injuries in children's hospitalization are mainly caused by falls,traffic accidents,and external injuries.Targeted prevention should be carried out according to the types of injuries in differ-ent age groups,especially falls,which are the most harmful types of injuries in terms of incidence rate and surgical rate.There-fore,prevention and control should be emphasized.

Statistical analysis of the perfusion parameters of cerebral cortex gray matter and deep white matter in the affected side and contralateral side were performed using SPSS13.0 software package. T test was used for variance homogeneity, and t′test was used for variance discrepancy, and P<0.05 was statistically significant. Results The average values of CBF and CBV of the ipsilateral and contralateral cerebral cortex were increased than those of ipsilateral and contralateral cerebral deep white matter respectively(P<0.01). MTT, TTP and TTD of the ipsilateral and contralateral cerebral cortex were decreased than that of ipsilateral and contralateral cerebral deep white matter (P<0.01); CBF of ipsilateral cerebral cortex and CBV of ipsilateral cerebral deep white matter were not different from those of the contralateral cerebral cortex and deep white matter respectively, but CBF of ipsilateral cerebral deep white matter is decreased than that of the contralateral deep white matter (P<0.01). CBV of ipsilateral cerebral cortex is increased than that of the contralateral cerebral cortex (P<0.01). MTT, TTP and TTD of ipsilateral cerebral cortex and deep white matter were increased than those of contralateral cerebral cortex and deep white matter respectively(P<0.01). Conclusion Deep cerebral white matter perfusion decreased more significantly than cortical gray matter in the supply region of chronic cerebral artery severe stenosis or occlusion. CT perfusion imaging can quantify the degree of chronic cerebral ischemia and can provide quantitative diagnostic information for clinical treatment and efficacy evaluation.
