Objective To research the Alzheimer disease(AD) patients' hippocampal structure and cognitive function with the susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI) and morphological measurement,and explore the changing regularity and correlation.Methods Sixty patients (divided equally into mild,moderate and major group as the condition of the severity of the AD) and 20 healthy control groups were scanned with SWI and T1MR,then the differences between AD and healthy controls were analyzed.Results The hippocampal volumes of AD patients were smaller than that of control group.The biggest variability occured in the major group(the left was Dunnett-t =-7.03,P < 0.01 ;the right was Dunnett-t =-7.52,P < 0.01),the moderate group was next(the left was Dunnett-t =-6.71,P < 0.01 ; the right was Dunnett-t =-6.62,P < 0.01) ;and the least variability occurred in the mild group.They did not achieve statistical significance (the left was Dunnett-t =-0.86,P> 0.05 ;the right was Dunnett-t =-0.68,P > 0.05).The hippocampus vein' s length,diameter had reduced significantly in the mild group(Dunnett-t were-5.62,-7.02,P< 0.001),but the number of the branches was slightly increased,which was close to the statistical significance.(Dunnett-t =1.86,P > 0.05).With the progress of the AD,all of the hippocampus vein's length,diameter,and branches were reduced significantly(the Dunnett-t of the moderate were-10.10,-11.40,-2.83,P<0.05;the Dunnett-tofthe major were-11.69,-14.68,-5.74,P< 0.001).AD patients blood vessel diameter,length and cognitive have correlation(r =-0.034 ~-0.517,P <0.05,P < 0.01).Conclusion The hippocampus vein and cognitive function function change in AD patients happened in the mild stages of disease.An important supplement to the MRI conventional sequences.

The assessments of oocyte quality were usually needed in assisted reproductive technology and reproduction science.Based upon the changes of structure and biochemistry in the development of oocyte,assessments of oocyte quality mainly comprised the oocyte morphology and its maturity.The assessment method of oocyte quality from nondestructive manner and invasive technique to provide multi-pathway for evaluating the oocyte quality reasonable was discussed.

Objective To explore the risk factors and protective factors for stomach cancer in Ganyu county.Methods Data of 319 pairs of new stomach cancer cases and health controls(1:1 matched)were studied by conditional Logistic regression method on the influential factors.Results The main risk factors for stomach cancer were the habits of eating hot foods(OR= 2.21,95%CI:1.57~3.12),the history of upper gastrointestinal inflammation(4.26,2.59~7.03),family history of cancer(2.29, 1.37~3.82);The main protective factors were often eating raw garlic(OR=0.64,95%CI:0.42~0.96),regular drinking tea(0.37, 0.25~0.54).Conclusion Unhealthy dietary habits,the history of upper gastrointestinal inflammation and family history of cancer are related to stomach cancer,while eating raw garlic and regular drinking tea may be effective in preventing the occurrence of stomach cancer.The results could be applied in stomach cancer prevention activities in Ganyu county.

Objective:To set up a system for the culture of Dendrobium chrysotoxum in vitro. Method:Tissue culture,fire fly luminescence and phenol-H2SO4 method. Result:The embryo could germinate with or without light, the MS, 1/2MS, B5, N6 mediums are suitable to the growth and the differentiation of sprout with light, 0.5 mg*L-1NAA and 1 mg*L-16-BA, and ATP have regular changes, the content of polysaccharide was 2.833% in plant and 7.254% in sprout. Conclusion:The light has no effects on the embryo germination, but the phytohormone,nitrogen source and organized elements are important to the growth and differentiation of the sprout which should be transferred to the MS, 1/2MS, B5, N6 mediums in time supplemented with NAA与6-BA, ATP may be served as the dynamic indication of nourishment demand in the plant. The content of polysaccharide in the sprout is higher and can be utilized.

[ABSTRACT]OBJECTIVETo investigate the diagnosis, treatment method, key points of operation, and postoperative complications of high-risk esophageal foreign body.METHODSA retrospective analysis of 41 cases of high-risk esophageal foreign body from January 1996 to December 2014. After adequate preparation, the foreign body was removed via esophageal endoscope under general anesthesia.RESULTSThe foreign bodies in 41 patients were removed via esophageal endoscope once or twice. Two cases suffered postoperative subcutaneous emphysema, that may be a result of a small perforation in esophagus. Emphysema was disappeared by fast, rehydration and anti-infection for 6 to 8 days, and other serious complications did not occur.CONCLUSIONMost high-risk esophageal foreign bodies can be removed through rigid esophagoscopy. Some of the foreign bodies of the patients were difficult to remove, some patients were presented with mediastinal emphysema and pneumothorax due to esophageal perforation, and some foreign body stuck in oesophagus so long to cause esophageal mucosa ulcer. In these conditions, foreign bodies should be removed by lateral neck incision or thoracotomy.
