Case-based learning model was applied in teaching the course of Clinical Biochem-istry and Diagnosis for postgraduates with professional degree. Dyslipidaemia was chose as teaching content and one distinctly characterized case along with four typical cases were selected. Information of cases and core problems were submitted to students to prepare before the class. In the class, stu-dents were grouped and discussed independently. Students put forward the pathogenesis of the disease and the clinical laboratory test items for diagnosis and differential diagnosis. Teachers should adhere to the following principles: making the class student-centered and highlighting consciousness of stu-dents; creating clinical environment to stimulate enthusiasm for learning; problem-oriented and taking capacity building as the priority. After the class, teaching evaluation was designed to promote the con-tinuous improvement of teaching cases.

Objective To analyze the survival rates of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs),and the influence of surgical treatment and imatinib to the survival times.Methods The clinical data of 132 patients with GIST who were admitted to Peoples Liberation Army Hospital from January 2003 to December 2013 were retrospectively analyzed.Results All the patients were followed up with a median time of 22 months (1-83 months).The survival rates of 1-year,3-year,5-year were 99 ％,96 ％,92 ％ in this study.The tumor located at cardiac part,fundus of stomach,greater curvature,lesser curvature and pylorus part was 19 cases (14.4 ％),34 cases (25.8 ％),38 cases (28.8 ％),38 cases (28.8 ％) and 3 cases (2.3 ％),respectively.The positive rates of CD117,CD34 and Ki-67 was 116 cases (87.9 ％),119 cases (90.2 ％),51 cases (38.6 ％).According to Fletcher risk classification,the patients of high-low risk,low risk,intermediate risk,and high risk were 10 cases (7.6 ％),34 cases (25.8 ％),14 cases (10.6 ％),and 74 cases (56.1％),respectively.The differences of survive rates in the different excision method and imatinib treatment had statistics significance (P =0.000).The differences of survive rates in Fletcher risk classification had statistics significance (P =0.028).However,the differences of survive rates in location of gastric GIST showed no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions GIST in different parts of gastric have not obviously different survival rates,respectively.The total resection and imatinib treatment could raise the survival rates of patients with GIST.

Objective To investigate the diagnosis of a case with 7p15.3p22.1 microdeletion by applying array-based comparative genomic hybridization (array-CGH) and to analyze the relationship between the clinical manifestations and 7p15.3p22.1 microdeletion. Method Array-CGH technique was used to detect genomic copy number variations (CNVs) in an infant with normal karyotype after conventional chromosomal karyotyping. Results Array-CGH detected 7p15.3p22.1 deletion (chr7: 6777262-23981753), which was confirmed as pathogenic CNV after comparative analysis with database. Conclusion Array-CGH could serve as a useful complement for G-banding to be used in the clinical cytogenetic diagnosis.

Objective To observe the NTBC dependence of Fah-knockout mice and study the biological characteristics in order to use the model more effectively.Methods Examine the progressive changes in body weight, survival time, liver pathology and serological markers after the NTBC withdrawal.Results After removing of NTBC, Fah-knockout mice lost their body weight gradually, and finally died in 5 to 7 weeks, along with increased serum ALT, AST levels and deformation of the hepatocytes.Conclusions Fah-knockout mice have a strong drug dependence of NTBC and could be the ideal model to hereditary tyrosinemia type I and other liver injury.

AIM: To investigate the effects of apelin-13 on proliferation, migration and capillary-like tube formation of a monkey choroid / retinal endothelial cell line, RF/6A, to clarify whether apelin-13 could promote retinal angiogenesis in vitro.METHODS: RF/6A cells in good conditions were administrated with DMSO (the control group), apelin-13 at 0.1μmol/L (low dose group) or apelin-13 at 1μmol/L (high dose group).Cell proliferation, migration and capillary-like tube formation were detected by using the MTT assay, scratch assay and matrigel assay, respectively, at 24h after plating the cells.RESULTS: Cell proliferation was promoted in both low and high dose apelin-13 groups compared to the control cells (P<0.05);the cell migration distance of both apelin-13 groups was significantly greater than that of the control group (P<0.05);and the number of capillary-like tube structures of both apelin-13 groups was significantly larger than that of the control cells (P<0.05).In addition, cell proliferation, migration and tube formation increased as the concentration of apelin-13 increased.CONCLUSION: Apelin-13 could obviously promote the angiogenesis capacity of RF/6A cells, suggesting that apelin-13 was an important pro-angiogenic factor in retinal endothelial cells.

Objective To explore the clinical manifestations of toxic epidermal necrolysis(TEN) and its rare pulmonary complications.Methods Clinical symptoms,treatment and prognosis of 1 child with TEN caused by carbamazepine were analyzed.Radiological images were reviewed to evaluate the manifestations and the outcome of chronic pulmonary complications associated with TEN.Results The patient had high fever shortly after a dosage increment of carbamazepine.A confluent erythematous exanthema developed rapidly into painful blistering with skin erosion,denudation and involvement of conjunctive and oropharyngeal mucosa.The diagnosis of TEN was made.The mucocutaneous damage was gradually recovered with steroid plus intravenous immunoglobulin for 3 weeks.However,the patient presented with respiratory failure in the recovery phase of TEN.The computer tomography revealed pulmonary bullae and pneumothorax in the right lung.Lung parenchyma was squeezed and pulmonary bullae ruptured with pneumothorax and atelectasis,which were absorbed gradually through thoracic drainages.The patient′s lung function and pulmonary bullae were partly improved during a 7-month follow-up.Conclusions TEN is a severe form of blistering skin di-sease which is characterized by an extensive loss of epidermis and mucous membrane.Chronic pulmonary complications may occur in recovery phase of TEN.Pulmonary bullae,which might be caused by mucous damage and respiratory obstruction,is a rare complication of TEN.
