Objective To study the adverse effect of mercury on the tibial nerves of rats. Methods Seventy SD rats (35 females, 35 males, weighed 160-200 g) were randomly divided into 4 groups. 40 rats in group 1 were used to test the acute toxicity of HgCl2, 10 rats in group 2 were given HgCl2 by gavage at 17 mg/kg(1/4 LD50) daily, in group 3 the dose was 8.5 mg/kg(1/8 LD50), 10 rats in group 4 were treated with 0.9% saline 2 ml by gavage daily, the experimental duration was (20?4) days. When the model had been developed, all the male rats were killed and the female rats in group 2 and 3 were given the chelator(DMPS) by intraperitoneal injection at 28 mg/kg for 2 periods of treatment, then were killed and the tibial nerves were examined with the electronic microscope. Results The oral LD50 of HgCl2 was 68.1 mg/kg. Seven rats in group 2 (7/10) were poisoned and two of them got pain manifestation. Six rats in group 3(6/10) were poisoned. Myelinoclasis and the changed axons were found in the tibial nerves of poisoned rats and it was more serious in the rats with pain. The chelator(DMPS) did not relieve the change. Conclusion Sub-acute poisoning of HgCl2 can induce degeneration of tibial nerves in SD rats .

Methods Literature analysis was made to determine the initial military clinical medical undergraduate training objectives, and a questionnaire was given to experts, on-the-job military doctors, medical graduates to know the real requirements of military doctors' position. A total of 455 valid questionnaires were collected. Then the questionnaire results were discussed and summarized by the method of expert discussion. Finally,. Delphi method was used to determine the ultimate training objective system. Results The ultimate training objective system of military undergraduate clinical medicine contains two aspects, eight fields and sixty-one standards objective systems. Conclusion Organically fusing military medical knowledge, ability and professional quality requirement into two levels and eight modules and clearly understanding the standards and requirements of each module are significantly systematic, advanced and operable, which has important reference value and guiding significance to both the military medical colleges and uni-versities and the local universities.

Background and purpose:The BRAF V600E mutation is a highly attractive drug target. Therefore, determining the BRAF gene mutation status of patients is essential in order to assess patients' eligibility for targeted BRAF geneinhibitor therapy. The aim of this study was to validate the utility of immunohistochemistry to rapidly obtain the BRAF gene mutation status. This study aimed to analyze the correlation of the BRAF V600E gene mutation and VE1 protein ex-pression with the clinical pathological characteristics in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC).Methods:The mutation status of BRAF V600E was detected by DNA sequencing. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of BRAF V600E protein in 108 cases of PTC, 54 cases of thyroid adenoma and 54 cases of normal thyroid tissue.Results:The gene mutation rate of BRAF V600E is 67.6%, and VE1 protein expression rate is 64.8% in 108 cases of PTC. The differences were statistically significant compared with thyroid adenoma and goiter (P<0.05), but have no correlation with the clinical pathological characteristics.Conclusion:BRAF V600E gene mutation and VE1 protein expression are useful biomarkers for the pathological diagnosis of PTC. High consistency was observed between the immunohistochemical staining results and the DNA sequencingresults of BRAF V600E gene mutations. Immunohistochemical technique detecting the BRAF V600E protein expression can effectively reflect indirectly BRAF V600E gene mutation status in PTC.BRAF V600E gene mutation has no contribution to the development of papillary thyroid carcinoma.

Lipoma of hemangiopericytomas (LHPC) is one ofrare soft-tissue tumors that grow slowly and occur in deep soft tissues. The classical histological morphology of LHPC is circularor spindle undifferentiated tumor cells that grow surrounding the thin-walled branching blood vessels. The clinical and pathological features of one patient with LHPC are retrospective analyzed to strengthen the understanding of LHPC.

Objective To investigate the correlation between microembolic signal (MES) and immune inflammation in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Methods The consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke were enroled. According to the results of MES, they were divided into either a positive group or a negative group. The Immune inflammatory indexes, demographics, and baseline clinical data in both groups were compared. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the independent influencing factors of MES in acute ischemic stroke. Results A total of 237 patients were enroled, including 52 in the MES positive group and 185 in the MES negative group. There were significant differences in the levels of triglyceride (2. 130 ± 0. 933 mmol/L vs. 1. 811 ± 0. 962 mmol/L; t = 2. 126, P = 0. 035), plasma fibrinogen (2. 946 ± 0. 255 g/L vs. 2. 833 ± 0. 322 g/L; t = 2. 332, P = 0. 021 ), Lp-PLA2 level ( 288. 265 ± 27. 855 μg/L vs. 261. 652 ± 29. 961 μg/L; t = 2. 897, P = 0. 004 ), as wel as the proportions of CD4 + CD25high Treg (8. 695% ± 1. 461% vs. 9. 445% ± 1. 397% ; t = 3. 386, P = 0. 001), artery stenosis ≥70% (21. 15% vs. 5. 41% ; χ2 = 10. 592, P = 0. 001 ) and smal arterial occlusive stroke (9. 62% vs. 23. 24% ; χ2 = 4.667, P = 0. 031) between the MES positive group and the MES negative group. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the increased plasma fibrinogen level (odds ratio [OR] 3. 257, 95%confidence interval [CI] 1. 124 - 9. 438; P = 0. 030), artery stenosis ≥ 70% (OR 3. 585, 95% CI 1. 394 -9. 219; P = 0. 008), and the decreased ratio of Treg (OR 3. 801, 95% CI 1. 190 - 12. 148; P = 0. 024) were the independent risk factors for positive MES, and smal arterial occlusive stroke was its independent protective factor (OR 0. 244, 95% CI 0. 072 - 0. 829; P = 0. 024). Conclusions MES may be associated with immune inflammation. The relationship between stroke and immune inflammation should be taken seriously.

OBJECTIVETo explore acupuncture-assisted anesthesia in transrectal ultrasound guided prostate biopsy via the perineum.

METHODSOne hundred and five cases of prostate biopsy were randomly divided into two groups. For 51 cases in observation group (group A), the periprostatic nerve plexus block and acupuncture on bilateral Zusanli (ST 36) were applied. For 54 cases in control group (group B), the simple periprostatic nerve plexus block was adopted. Visual Analogue Score (VAS) was used to evaluate the pain extent after biopsy and blood pressure and heart rate were monitored before, during and after operation, separately.

RESULTSVAS scores were 0.9 +/- 0.8 and 2.8 +/- 1.0 in group A and group B, separately, indicating statistical significant difference in comparison (P < 0.01). Additionally, in group B, blood pressure and heart rate during and after operation were higher remarkably than those before operation (all P < 0.05). Moreover, in group B, blood pressure during operation and heart rate during and after operation were all higher apparently than those in group A (all P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONAcupuncture-assisted anesthesia alleviates apparently pain and discomforts during transrectal ultrasound guided prostate biopsy via the perineum in patients and ensures the stability of blood pressure and heart rate.
