Three hundred cases of E type viral hepatitis were observed with 100 cases of A type as control. We held that the etiology and pathogenesisof E and A types of viral hepatitis were wind, dampness, heat, poisons and stasis, each with its predominance; For A type, its predominant etiology being wind, heat and stasis, while that of E type, dampness, poisons and stasis. For their therapy, the principle of "similar treatment for different diseases " should, adopted. After treatment, ACT, TB, and a markedly decreased, signs and symptoms markedly improved, Epr, IgG also improved to different extents, the cured rate ( rate of negative virus exam) being 80% and 78% for A type and E type respectively. The effect was especially good for simple infection, and rather poor for mixed infection type.

As the patient of hepatitis B and E overlapping infection of liver and gallbladder damp - heat type compared with the patient of simple hepatitis E of liver and gallbladder damp-heat type, attack was very rapid, jaundice exacerbated progressively and hepatic function damaged severely. Aftertreatment the state of illness restored more slowly and the duration of illness was obviously prolonged. At the same time, it was found that the biochemical indexes (hyaluronic acid, total bile acid) increased significantly at acute stage, and the indexes in the patient of overlapping infection in the time for recovering normality at restoration stage was longer than that in the patient of simple hepatitis E, with a significantly difference between the two groups. It is indicated that lesion of the liver in the patient of overlapping infection of hepatitis B and E was more severe than the simple hepatitis E, with no good prognosis.

Objective To investigate cancer suppressor Genes p16, p15 in the brain gliomas expression and its relations with the gliomas pathology graduation and the malignant degree.Methods P16 and P15 protein expression level in human brain gliomas from 63 surgery specimens were assayed by immunobistochemical S-P method.Results P16, the P15 protein expression rate the brain gliomas pathology graduation assumes the inverse correlation with, also compared with the high malignant group the low malignant group (Ⅰ~Ⅱ level) (Ⅲ~Ⅳ level) has the remarkable difference (P

Objective To explore the expression of the Merlin protein in normal cervix and cervical can-cer of the Han,Tibetan and Hui nationalities in Qinghai. Methods Immunohisto-chemical staining was per-formed to detect the expression of Merlin in 108 cases of cervical carcinoma(40 cases of Han,38 cases of Tibetan and 30 cases of Hui nationality)and 107 cases of normal cervix(40 cases of Han,37 cases of Tibetan and 30 cas-es of Hui nationality). Results The positive expression rates of Merlin in normal cervix were 90.0%,91.9%and 86.7%respectively and those in cervical carcinoma were 17.5%,18.4%and 16.7%respectively. There was signifi-cantly statistical difference(P<0.05). However,there was no significant difference in the positive rates of Merlin between cervical carcinoma among different ethnic groups(P>0.05). The expression of Merlin was not correlated with age,FIGO stage,lymph metastasis and cell differentiation(P > 0.05)in cervical carcinoma of three ethnic groups. Conclusion The decrease or even deletion of Merlin may be involved in the development of cervical can-cer,and it plays an important role in cervical cancer. The expression of Merlin exerts no effect on the occurrence of cervical cancer and it is not associated with the clinical characteristics of the patients ,suggesting that it may not be involved in the invasion and metastasis of cervical cancer.

Objective To retrospectively analyze computerized tomography (CT) imaging features of colorectal cancer with chronic schistosomiasis in order to improve the diagnostic accuracy.Methods Eighty patients whose diagnosis was pathologically confirmed as colorectal cancer with schistosomiasis were collected from Tongji Hospital and Kunshan Chinese Medicine Hospital from January 2007 to December 2012.All the patients underwent abdominal plain CT and contrast-enhanced CT scan.The lesion location,morphology,size,calcification features,enhancement patterns and cancer metastasis were evaluated and compared by two radiologists who were blind to the diagnosis.Twenty colorectal cancer cases without schistosomiasis from the same area were also collected as controls.Results CT imaging showed that the tumors all occurred in the colon and rectum in 80 patients,mainly in colon descendens,colon sigmoideum and rectum.The lesion was characterized by irregular bowel wall thickening with soft tissue masses,and the average length of impaired intestine was (21.35 ± 4.50) cm.The lesions were solitary in 68 cases (85.0％) and were multifocal in 12 cases (15.0％).Linear,spotty and small patchy calcifications were seen in all the patients,with margins unclear in 59 patients (73.8％) and margins clear in 21 patients (26.2％).Early phase enhancement was seen in 68 cases (85.0％),of which 45 cases (56.2％) had homogenous enhancement and 23 cases (28.8％) had heterogeneous enhancement.Late phase enhancement was seen in 73 cases (91.2％) and necrosis was hardly seen.Only two cases (2.5％) had liver metastasis without lymphatic metastasis.All the 20 colorectal cancer cases without schistosomiasis presented with single lesion,which was characterized by irregular bowel wall thickening and local ulcer.The average length of impaired intestine was (6.90±3.40) cm.No calcification was seen in these lesions.All cases had early phase lesion with remarkable heterogeneous enhancement with low density necrotic area.The late phase enhancement was decreased.Four cases (20.0％) had liver metastasis.Compared to cases without schistosomiasis,cases with schistosomiasis tended to have multifocal (x2=100,P=0.000) and longer lesion (t=45.506,P=0.000),and more calcification (x2=100,P=0.000).The early phase heterogeneous enhancement was less frequent (x2 =88,P=0.000) and late phase enhancement was more frequent (x2=100,P=0.000).The liver metastasis rate was significantly lower (x2 =8.688,P =0.014).Conclusions The CT imaging of colorectal cancer with schistosomiasis is characterized by calcifications inside the tumor with obscured margins and multiple intestinal segments involvement.Hematogenous metastasis and lymphatic metastasis are rarely seen.

Objective To evaluate the correlation of ADC values on 3.0 T MR with the pathological grades in pT1b clear cell renal cell carcinoma(CCRCC).Methods Conventional MR images,ADC values and Fuhrman pathological grading of pT1b CCRCC were performed in 30 patients.Grade Ⅰ and Ⅱ were defined as low-grade group; grade Ⅲ and IV were defined as high-grade group.The differences of ADC values among four different pathologic grades were compared with a one-way analysis of variance. The comparison of ADC values of two different grade groups was performed with t test,and the ROC curve was performed to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of ADC value. Correlation between pathological gradings and ADC values was assessed with Spearman rank correlation analysis. Results ( 1 ) The mean ADC value of grading Ⅰ ( 10 patients ), Ⅱ ( 8 patients ),Ⅲ ( 7 patients ),IV ( 5 patients ) was ( 0.94 ± 0.11 ) ×10-3 mm2/s,(0.82 ±0.13) × 10-3 mm2/s,(0.68 ±0.09) × 10-3 mm2/s,(0.59 ±0.03) × 10-3 mm2/s,respectively.Significant differences of ADC values among the four grades were present (F =16.422,P =0.000 ).( 2 ) The mean ADC value of the low-grade group was significantly higher than that of the high-grade group(t =5.738,P =0.000).Sensitivity and specificity of diagnosing the low-grade group was 88.9％ and 83.3％ respectively.There was a negative correlation between pathological grading and ADC value ( r =-0.807,P ＜ 0.05). Conclusions The ADC values of pT1b CCRCC have close correlation with pathological gradings.They can be used to predict the degree of tumor malignancy preoperatively and guide surgical planning.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility of histogram analysis of susceptible signal intensity in differentiating papillary (pRCC) from chromophobe renal cell carcinoma(ChRCC). Methods Thirteen cases with pRCC and 9 cases with ChRCC, who underwent susceptible-weighted imaging(SWI), MR common scanning and enhancement, were assessed retrospectively. The histogram parameters of susceptible signal intensity were measured, including maximum, minimum, mean, median, skewness and kurtosis. The independent samples t test(normal distribution) and Mann-Whitney rank sum test(skewed distribution) were used to compare the differences in SWI parameters between pRCCs and ChRCCs. Receiver operating characteristic curve was used to evaluate the efficiency of the whole-tumor SWI parameters in differentiating pRCCs from ChRCCs. Results The significant differences of the minimum, mean, median and skewness between pRCCs and ChRCCs were present(P<0.05), and there was no significant differences in maximum and kurtosis between between pRCCs and ChRCCs(P>0.05). In all the histogram parameters, the area of ROC curve of mean value was largest(0.80). The sensitivity of minimum value (84.62％) was the highest and and the specificity of skewness(100.00％) was the highest. Conclusion Histogram analysis of susceptible signal intensity can help differentiate pRCCs from ChRCCs.

Objective To knock down angiopoietin-1 expression in human gastric cancer cell line BGC-823 and to observe its effect of reversing tumor invasion. Methods siRNA sequence fragments was designed to target angiopoietin-1 and transferred into human gastric cancer cell line BGC-823. RT-PCR was used to assess the transcription level of angio-poietin-1 mRNA, then western blot and immunofluorescence were used to examine the expression level of three invasion-as-sociated proteins include integrinβ1, CD44V6 and Ang-1. Cell adhesion ability was evaluated by cell adhesion assay and cell invation was determined by matrigel and transwell plastic dual-chamber culture system. Results Ang-1 mRNA was knocked down by siRNA showed by RT-PCR. The expression of integrinβ1, CD44V6 and Ang-1 were significantly lower than control group(P<0.05), so did the cellular adhesion and invasion abilities(P<0.05). Conclusion Knocking down angiopoietin-1 by siRNA can reverse invasion of human gastric cancer cell line BGC-823 and may provide new ideas and reference for gene therapy of gastric cancer in the future.

Based on the characteristic of nucleotide distribution in nucleosome positioning and inhibiting sequences, the method of Increment of Diversity with Quadratic Discriminant (IDQD) was applied to the classification of these two types of sequences. The mean area under ROC curve archives 0.958. By using this model, the nucleosome formation potential was analyzed in the regions around the splice sites (GT/AG). The results show that coding regions have a high potential to form the nucleosome and the primary RNA transcripts are rigid, while DNA sequences corresponding to the splice sites and their adjacent intron regions tend to be nucleosome free and the primary transcripts from these regions are relative flexible. Moreover, the negative correlation between nucleosome positioning/inhibiting of DNA sequences and RNA flexibility/rigidity is demonstrated around the splice sites, providing a mechanism for understanding the correlation between the nucleosome positioning of DNA and the splicing of transcribed RNA sequences.
