Normative training of residents is a start and necessary course in entering medical practice, and is very important for medical practitioners in their career. Clinical practice is a very key period for resident doctors to obtain clinical theory, skills and experience. Hence teaching of clinical practice becomes vitally crucial. Based on years of clinical teaching experiences revealed by senior neurosurgical doctors in a large general hospital, and the characteristics of neurosurgical residents, the author suggests a classification of three-stages in normative residency training proposes and explores teaching strategies in each stage.

Surgical treatment is an important method for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) when it is complicated with other intestinal diseases or medical treatment fails.The appropriate timing of surgery can reduce the incidence of postoperative complications and is the key factor for the success of treatment.Excessive emphasis on medication and blindly extending the course of medication in case of invalidation will make patients lose the best opportunity of surgery.Surgeons should master different surgical techniques of acute and selective surgeries for IBD.Multi-disciplinary treatment mode is recommended.Adjustment of the preoperative medication,improvement of the nutritional status and the overall condition of the patients are necessary when surgery is unavoidable.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a bowel disease with uncontrolled inflammation and unknown etiology.With the recent expert consensus,multidisciplinary collaborative groups focusing on IBD have been gradually built in China,and IBD is not only an internal medical disease anymore.Furthermore,the therapeutic effect of IBD has also been greatly improved,but it is still not satisfactory.Precision therapy is the future direction of treatment for IBD,meanwhile,stem cell therapy and fecal transplantation also provide the new choices for refractory IBD.

Objective To observe the expression changes of microRNA-124(miRNA-124) following traumatic brain injury (TBI) in mice and investigate the correlation of miRNA-124 with neural axon regeneration.Methods Ninety-one C57BL/6 mice were assigned into TBI group (n =63) and control group (n =28) according to the random number table.Mice in TBI group were subjected to controlled cortical impact and euthanized at 12 hours and 1,3,7,14,21,28 days postinjury for the collection of brain tissue in the trauma zone.Mice in control group underwent craniectomy only.Trauma zone observation was done using the HE staining.Expression of miRNA-124 was detected using the real-time PCR.Levels of Nrp-1,Gap-43 and Tau were detected using the Western blot and immunohistochemical staining.Results After injtury,study of mice behavior and HE staining indicated the establishment of experimental model was successful.Expression of miRNA-124 reached the peak at 3 days postinjury (3.80 ± 0.22),expression of Nrp-1 reached the peak at 7 days postinjury (2.006 ±0.179),expression of Tau reached the peak at 14 days postinjury (2.063 ±0.172),and expression of Gap-43 sustained high level since 12 hours after injury(1.355 ± 0.093) (P ＜ 0.05).Count of axon marker positive cells in TBI group was the lowest at 1 day postinjury due to the direct damage and edema,and then slowly recovered.There was no significant difference in the count of axon marker positive cells between the two groups at 14,21 and 28 days postinjury (P ＞ 0.05),but the morphology in TBI group changed obviously.Although the positive cells of axon marker decreased at 1 day postinjury,expressions of miRNA-124,Nrp-1,Tau and Gap-43 in TBI group were significantly increased compared to the detections in control group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Increased expression of miRNA-124 in trauma zone may closely related to axon regeneration after TBI in mice.

Objective To investigate the comprehensive treatment of Crohn's disease complicated with anal fistula.Methods The clinical data of 33 patients with Crohn's disease complicated with anal fistula who were admitted to the Sixth Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University from June 2007 to April 2011 were retrospectively analyzed.According to the range of the disease,surgical,medical and combined treatment were applied.Surgical treatment included thread-drawing drainage,fistulectomy,incision and drainage of the perianal abscess and enterostomy.Medical treatment include 5-aminosalicylic acid,immunosuppressive therapy,glucocorticoid,tumor necrosis factor monoclonal antibodies.All the patients were followed up till August 2012.The Crohn's disease activity index (CDAI) and perianal Crohn's disease activity index (PDAI) before and after treatment were analyzed using the independent sample t test.Results Of the 33 patients,22 received surgical and medical treatment,7 received surgical treatment,and 4 received medical treatment.The anal fistula was healed in 18 patients after the initial treatment (3 of them did not receive surgical treatment),and the mean closure time of the fistula was (3.2 ± 2.6) months (range,1-12 months) ; the condition of 8 patients was improved ; 4 patients suffered from fistula persistence ; anal fistula recurrence was observed in 6 patients,and the time for anal fistula recurrence was (35 ±56)months (range,5-148 months).The preoperative CDAI and PDAI of the 33 patients were 166 ± 100 (range,7-361) and 9.2 ± 2.6 (range,5-16),and the postoperative CDAI and PDAI of the 33 patients were 83 ± 53 (range,0-212) and 2.7 ± 3.1 (range,0-11).There were significant differences between the pre-and postoperative CDAI and PDAI (t =4.20,8.92,P ＜0.05).Of the 12 patients who were failed in the initial treatment,the anal fistula was healed in 3 patients after the treatment,and the condition of the other 9 patients remained the same.Of the 6 patients with anal fistula recurrence,5 received reoperation (4 were healed and 1 remained the same after the treatment) and the fistula of 1 patient who received medical treatment was not healed.At the end of the follow up,the anal fistulas of 20 patients were healed,and 10 remained the same.Conclusions There is no standard treatment for Crohn's disease complicated with anal fistula,surgical treatment combined with medical treatment is important for the treatment of Crohn's disease complicated with anal fistula.Surgical procedures should be chosen carefully according to the condition of the patients.

Objective To investigate the association between the genetic polymorphisms in GSTA1 and the clinical outcome of breast cancer patients treated with cyclophosphamide-based adjuvant chemotherapy. Methods A total of 137 breast cancer patients receiving cyclophosphamide-based adjuvant chemotherapy were recruited ( 124 cases with infiltrative ductal carcinoma, 5 cases with infiltrative lobular carcinoma and 8 cases with other histological types). PCR-LDR method was used to detect the genotypes of GSTA1. Survival curves were generated by the Kaplan-Meier method, and verified by the log-rank test. Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was used to estimate the prognostic factors in multivariate analysis. Results Of the 137 breast cancer patients, the genotypic frequencies of the GSTA1 * A/* A,* A/* B and * B/* B were 67.2% ( 92/137 ), 31.4% ( 43/137 ) and 1.5% ( 2/137 ), respectively. No significant differences were found between the genotypic frequencies and groups categorization according to age, stage, lymph node metastasis, ER or PR status (x2 = 0. 722,1. 967, 3. 303, 0. 226 and 0. 709, all P ＞0. 05 ) ;through Fisher exact test, also no significant differences were found between the genotypic frequencies and group categorization according to tumor size, histological types and grading ( all P ＞ 0. 05 ) . The recurrence rates in patients with GSTA1 * A/* A and * A/* B or * B/* B genotypes were 47. 8% (44/92) and 31.1% ( 14/45 ), respectively, and the mortality rates were 22. 8% ( 21/92 ) and 17. 8% ( 8/45 ),respectively. Patients with GSTA1 * A/* B and * B/* B genotypes were significantly associated with reduced hazard of relapse (x2 =18.723, P＜0. 01)and mortality (x2 =7.352, P＜0.01), compared to cases with the common * A/* A genotypes, according to Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and log-rank test. Moreover,Cox multivariate analysis showed that GSTA1 polymorphisms appeared to be an independent risk factor for recurrence-free survival ( OR =0. 222, 95% CI:0. 108-0. 458, P ＜0. 01 ) and overall survival ( OR =0. 362,95% CI:0. 145-0. 902, P ＜ 0. 05 ). Conclusion These data indicate that GSTA1 polymorphism may be a potential prognostic factor for recurrence-free survival and overall survival in breast cancer patients treated with cyclophosphamide-based adjuvant chemotherapy.

ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship between tumor-infiltrating mast cell (TIM) and the clinicopathological and prognostic factors of patients with colorectal cancer.MethodsA total of 282 cases of paraffin-embedded colorectal cancer specimens were obtained from the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from January 2002 to December 2005.The density of TIM was determined by immunohistochemical staining.According to the mean TIM density detected [ ( 8.4 + 6.5 )/HPF ],all the patients were divided into low-TIM density group (mean TIM density ＜8.4/HPF) and high-TIM density group (mean TIM density ＞8.4/HPF).The clinicopathological factors and the prognosis of patients between high-TIM density group and low-TIM density group were compared.All data were analyzed using the t test or chi-square test.The survival curve was drawn using the Kaplan-Meier method,and the survival of the patients was analyzed by the Log-rank test.The clinicopathological factors were analyzed retrospectively with the univariate and multivariate COX regression model.ResultsTIM was detected in all the patients with colorectal cancer.Significant differences were observed in the number of patients in N stage and TNM stage between patients in the high-TIM density group and those in the lowTIM density group (x2 =6.025,7.410,P ＜ 0.05 ).All patients were followed up till September 2010,the 5-year overall and tumor-free survival rates of patients were 82.9％ and 63.1％ in the low-TIM density group,79.0％ and 59.3％ in the high-TIM density group,with significant difference between the 2 groups (P ＜ 0.05 ).COX proportional hazard regression model revealed that high density of TIM was associated with short overall survival time and tumor-free survival time of colorectal cancer patients ( RR =2.119,95 ％ CI 1.326- 3.386; RR =2.084,95 ％ CI 1.357-3.199,P ＜0.05).The resuhs of multivariate analysis showed that high density of TIM was the independent factor influencing the overall survival time and tumor-free survival time (RR =1.651,95％ CI 1.009-2.702; RR =1.680,95％ CI 1.074-2.629,P ＜ 0.05 ).ConclusionHigh density of TIM is correlated with the N stage and TNM stage of colorectal cancer,and it is an independent predictor of poor survival for patients with colorectal cancer.

Objective To evaluate the effects of inhaled nitric oxide(INO) in the early period after Fontan operation. Methods Twenty children receiving INO [(10 ～ 25) × 10 -6] after fight heart bypass for congenital heart disease were evaluated. The changes of hemodynamic and respiratory parameters were observed at two different intervals. The levels of methemoglobin (MetHb)and nitrogen dioxide(NO2)were monitored. Results In INO therapy group,CVP decreased from (20.8±4.8) mm Hg to (14.3±1.8) mm Hg,TPG decreased from (16.3 ±3.0) mm Hg to (8.8±2. 1) mm Hg,PaO2/FiO2 increased from (70.3±16.9) mm Hg to (120.5 ±14.0) mm Hg,and arterial oxygen saturation increased from 0. 78 ±0. 14 to 0. 91 ±0. 09 ,blood lactic acid level decreased from (3.98 ± 0. 86) mmol/L to (1.29 ± 1.60) mmol/L. No toxic side effect was observed. Conclusion INO has no significant long-term effect on patients after Fontan operation, but it can improve respiratory function, and reduce the incidence of low cardiac output syndrome and high cava pressure caused by reactive elevation of pulmonary vascular resistance in the early postoperative period after Fontan operation.
