Objective:To compare the survival of resected gastric cancer patient treated with oxaliplatin, 5-fluorouracil, and leu-covorin (FOLFOX6) with those treated with oxaliplatin and capecitabine (XELOX). Methods:A total of 147 resected gastric cancer pa-tients accepted the treatment. Among them, 99 were treated with FOLFOX6 and 48 were treated with XELOX. Adverse events and sur-vival rates of the two groups were compared. Results:Incidence of leukopenia and hepatic dysfunction in the FOLFOX6 group was sig-nificantly higher than that of the XELOX group (P<0.05), whereas hand-foot syndrome in the XELOX group was significantly higher than that of the FOLFOX6 group (P=0.016). By contrast, the incidence of other adverse events, such as anemia, thrombocytopenia, nau-sea and vomiting, diarrhea, kidney dysfunction, peripheral neurovirulence, and oral mucositis, was not significantly different (P>0.05) between the two groups. After 1, 3, and 5 years, disease-free and overall survivals between the two groups were not significantly differ-ent (P>0.05). Conclusion:The effects of FOLFOX6 and XELOX adjuvant chemotherapies on long-term survival of resected gastric cancer patients were found to have no significant difference.

Objective To survey the state of internet addiction of vocational college students and explore the effect of perceived social support and loneliness on Internet addiction.Methods In accordance with random cluster sampling,this research used the Revised Chen Internct Addition Scale,Perceived Social Support scale,and UCLA Loneliness Scale to study lnternet addiction among a total of 1 602 vocational college students from three higher vocational colleges in Guangzhou.Results [nternet addiction rate was 9.87％,and Internet dependence rate was 24.78％.Internet addiction had a higher incidence rate among male students than that among female students (x2=19.775,P＜0.01).The perceived social support group of vocational college students was low,which indicated serious loneliness based on the Loneliness Scale,and their scores on Internet addiction tendency were higher than those of other groups (P＜0.01).The total scores in Internet addiction tendency and perceived social support were negative (r=-0.183,P＜ 0.01),which indicates positive correlation with loneliness (r=0.243,P＜ 0.01).The mediating effect of perceived social support and Internet addiction on loneliness was significant,with a mediation rate of 69.63％.Conclusion Internet addiction tendency of vocational college students is a problem that deserves more attention.Low social support and loneliness can increase the incidence rate of internet addiction tendency.Loneliness is also found to be a strong predictor of internet addiction.

Objective To evaluate the role of Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling pathway in the spinal cord in neuropathic pain (NP) in the rats.Methods Seventy-two male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 8 weeks,weighing 250-300 g,were randomly divided into 2 groups (n=36 each) using a random number table:sham operation group (S group) and NP group.Spared nerve injury was produced by exposing the sciatic nerve and its branches and ligation and transection of tibial nerve and common fibular nerve in anesthetized rats.The mechanical paw withdrawal threshold (MWT) was measured before operation and at 1,4,7,14 and 21 days after operation.After measurement of the pain threshold at 1,4,7,14 and 21 days after operation,the animals were then sacrificed,and the lumbar segment (L46) of the spinal cord was obtained for determination of Shh,Patched (Ptch),Gli1 and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP)expression (by Western blot),Shh,Ptch and Gli1 mRNA expression (by fluorescent quantitative real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction),and Shh and GFAP expression (by immunohistochemistry).Results Compared with group S,the MWT was significantly decreased,and the expression of Shh,Ptch and Gli1 protein and mRNA and GFAP in spinal cord tissues was up-regulated in group NP (P＜ 0.05).Shh was mainly expressed in the cytoplasm of spinal dorsal horn neurons and in the gap around glial cells.Conclusion Shh signaling pathway in spinal cord is involved in the development and maintenance of NP in the rats.

Objective To investigate the current situation of thyroid disease by analyzing retrospectively the color poppler ultrasonography data of neck discomfort in Heilongjiang Province.Methods A total of 13 020 cases (18-93 years old) of thyroid ultrasound examination data collected from September 2009 to October 2012 at the Department of Ultrasound,Fourth Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University,were retrospectively analyzed.According to the sonographic features of thyroid (thyroid morphology,size,echo characteristics,blood flow,nodular location,number,calcification,etc),combined with ultrasound diagnosis,the relationships between gender and disease,age and disease,ultrasound diagnosis and disease classification,gender,number of nodules and benign and malignant were analyzed.Results Among the 13 020 cases,524 cases was excluded.There were 2 291 male cases; abnormalities were detected in 1 679 cases,and the abnormal ratio was 73.29％; there were 10 205 female cases; 7 946 cases were abnormal,and the abnormal ratio was 77.86％.The proportion of abnormal thyroid cases of the total number of female was higher than that of male,and the ratio of male and female was 1.00 ∶ 4.73 (1 679∶7 946); gender differences were statistically significant(x2 =18.476,P ＜ 0.01).There were nodular type 5 018 cases,diffuse type 2 012 cases and mixed type 2 603 cases in sonographic findings.The nodular type on ultrasound images showed mainly nodular goiter(79.21％,3 975/5 018).The diffuse type on ultrasonic images showed mainly Hashimoto Thyroiditis(59.24％,1 192/2 012).The mixed cases on ultrasound images showed mainly nodular goiter (89.83％,2 331/2 595).Ultrasound diagnostic results showed that nodular goiter accounted for 65.52％ (6 306/9 625) and Hashimoto Thyroiditis accounted for 17.97％ (1 730/9 625).Proportion of thyroid disease increased gradually with age,reached a peak [29.93％(2 557/8 544) and 28.84％ (2 464/8 544)] between the ages of 41-50 and 51-60 years old.The proportion gradually decreased into[14.17％(1 211/8 544),7.26％(620/8 544)] between the age of 61-71 and ＞ 71 years old.The incidence differences of malignant nodules between different age groups were statistically significant (x2 =407.796,P ＜ 0.01).Among malignant nodules,solitary nodule accounted for 95.76％ (113/118) ; multiple nodules accounted for 4.24％ (5/118),and there were more solitary nodule than multiple nodules(x2 =15.286,P ＜ 0.01).About malignant solitary nodules,women accounted for 87.61％(99/113); men accounted for 12.39％ (14/113),and women's were significantly higher than man's(x2 =360.960,P ＜ 0.01).Correlation analysis showed that the results of ultrasounddiagnosisofvarious thyroid diseases were highly correlated with the ultrasonic types of diseases(r =0.139 99,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Nodular goiter and Hashimoto Thyroiditis are the most common adult neck discomfort diagnosed by ultrasound in Heilongjiang Province.The high-risk age of thyroid disease is between 41-60 years old.Thyroid malignant is more common in single nodular,and the number of female patients is significantly higher than that of men.

BAcKGROUND:In recent years,the pedicle screws fixation technique,which is used in fixation for atlantoaxial instability associated with trauma,severe degeneration and tumorectomy,has been developed.However,this kind of technique easily causes several complications,including malpositional screws,vascular injuries,and even vertebral artery injury.Based on the biomechanical characteristics of memory alloy and determination of atlantoaxial data,a neotype shape memory alloy cervical hook was designed to treat atlantoaxial instability.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the biomechanieal characteristics of the neotype shape memory alloy cervical hook for atlantoaxial instability.DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:Repeated measurement analysis of variance test was performed in the Laboratory of Clinical Anatomy and Medical Biomechanics,Southern Medical University between March and April 2008.MATERIALS:Eight fresh adult craniocervical specimens(C0-C4)were provided by Department of Clinical Anatomy,Southern Medical University.Atlantoaxial neotype shape memory alloy cervical hook(50.8%-51.8%nickel and the remaining part was titanium)was fabricated by Shanghai Xinchang Memory Alloy Co.,Ltd.METHODS:The included eight C0-C4 specimens were used to test three-dimension ranges of motion(ROM)by fixation and neotype shape memory alloy cervical hook fixation.Then,the positions of spine varying from no loading to the maximum loading status were scanned and analyzed using image processing software to determine the three-dimensional ROM under different statuses.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Three-dimensional ROM of tested specimens.RESULTS:Neotype shape memory alloy cervical hook fixation and Germany AESCULAP SSE hanger fixation had similar flexion-extension range of motion(P=0.595).Lateral bending three-dimensional ROM was greater in the neotype shape memory alloy cervical hook fixation group than in the Germany AESCULAP AAE hanger fixation(P< 0.05).The rotatory three-dimensional ROM was smaller in the neotype shape memory alloy cervical hook fixation group than in the Germany AESCULAP AAE hanger fixation(P<0.05).CONCLUSION:Neotype shape memory alloy cervical hook fixation had comparative post-surgery immediate stability with the Germany AESCULAP AAE hanger fixation.Neotype shape memory alloy cervical hook fixation produced a little worse biomechanical lateral bending stability and a little better biomechanical rotatory stability than Germany AESCULAP AAE hanger fixation.

Objective To evaluate serum organochlorine pesticides and residues levels in breast cancer pa-tients between the seriously and lightly earthquake-striken areas of Tangshan. Methods 93 patients of breast cancer from seriously earthquake-striken areas and 65 patients from lightly earthquake-striken areas were selected as study subjects,which serum organochlorine pesticides (DDTs and HCHs) levels were detected and compared with gas chromatography/electron capture. Results Serum organochlorine pesticides and residues levels in 158 patients be-tween the seriously and lightly earthquake-striken areas of Tangshan were not normal distributed. The order of detec-tion rate of HCH isomer in breast cancer patients between the seriously and lightly earthquake-striken areas were β-HCH>δ-HCH >α-HCH >γ-HCH. The orders of detection rate of DDT isomer in breast cancer patients between two areas of Tangshan were PP'-DDE > PP'-DDT > OP'-DDT > PP'-DDD. The serum levels of α-HCH,β-HCH, PP'-DDE and PP'-DDD in breast cancer patients between the seriously and lightly earthquake-striken areas were statistically different. Conclusion The levels of organechlorine pesticides and residues in serum with high detection rate in seri-ously earthquake-striken area are higher than that in lightly earthquake-striken area. It is likely that there is an asso-ciation with a large number of organechlorine pesticides sprayed.
