Objective To detect ret mutations in two Chinese families with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2A(MEN2A).Methods In our study,9 members from these two families including 3 patients were recruited.Polymerase chain reaction(PCR)and direct gene sequencing of PCR products by an automated DNA sequencer were applied to scan the entire 21 exons of ret proto-oncogene in the leukocyte DNA of the subjects.Results Two missense mutations were detected in exon11 of the ret proto-oncogene.One was C634R in the 2 patients from a family and the other was C634Y in 2 subjects from another family(one was the patient).Two heterozygous variants(A45A and L769L)in these 4 subjects were revealed.Conclusion Two mutations(C634R and C634Y)are detected in two families with MEN2A.Direct DNA sequencing analysis can diagnose MEN2A at gene level,which is helpful in making clinical management of the disease and in diagnosing earlier in their offspring.

Objective:To investigate the distribution of γδT17,Th17 and Tc17 cells in the lung of mice severely infected by influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 virus and the relationship between these cells with lung immunopathalogical injury.Methods:Intranasal infection was used to establish mouse model of severe H1N1 infection.Flow cytometry assay was used to detect the proportion and number of γδT17 cells,Th17 cells and Tc17 cells in the lung.The concentrations of interleukin-17A(IL-17A),interleukin-1β(IL-1β)and interleukin-23(IL-23) in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and serum were assayed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and Lu-minex assay.Results:①The model of mice severely infected by influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 virus was established successfully.②The ratio of γδT cells,but not CD4+T and CD8+T cells in total lymphocytes of the lung of infected mice significantly increased compared with uninfected control mice at the third day post infection(DPI)(P<0.01).③The proportion and number of γδT17 cells,Th17 cells and Tc17 cells in total γδT cells,Th cells and Tc cells in the lung of infected mice were significant higher than that in uninfected control mice at the first DPI,respectively.However,the absolute number of γδT17 cells was far more than Th17 and Tc17 cells(P<0.05);④The concentration of IL-17A in BALF increased significantly after infection(P<0.05),and the concentration of IL-17A in serum increased significantly at the third DPI(P<0.05).The concentrations of both IL-1β and IL-23 in BALF probably participating in the activation of γδT17 cells increased significantly after infection compared with uninfected control mice.Conclusion:The γδT17 cells could be activated and secreted IL-17A via γδTCR non-depended pathway and involved in inflammatory pathological injury of lung at the early stage of severe H1N1 infection.

Objective To explore the value of 64-slice spiral CT angiography in diagnosis of pulmonary arteriovenous fistulas(PAVF).Methods 12 patients with suspect PAVF were performed by enhanced scan with 64-SliceCT.Two-dimensional and three-dimensional reformation were performed in all cases including coronal multiplanar reconstruction(MPR),maximum intensity projection(MIP),volume rendering(VR).Resnlts 12 cases were diagnosed as PAVF by 64-SliceCT angiography.Single PAVF in 7 cases,Multi-PAVF in 5cases.We found 20 lesions in 12 patients,Except direct multi-pulmonary arteriovenous fistulas in the area of near the heart in one case.Conclusion 64-slice spiral CT angiography is a useful and noninvasive means to identify PAVF and is also useful for therapeutic planning and postoperative follow-up.

Objective To evaluate the influence and significance of preoperative design of surgical approach on stem cell transplantation via stereotactic surgery. Methods Six patients with stroke in the basal ganglia region were selected. The transplantation target and transcranial approach point were designed by magnetic resonance examination before stem cell transplantation via stereotacfic surgery to guarantee that the line connecting the transplantation target and transcranial approach point could avoid the important functional areas, the ventricular system and the softening focus. Postoperative magnetic resonance examination was performed to observe whether the practical target and surgical approach coincided with the preoperative design or not. Results The practical transplantation target was coincided with the designed transplantation target, distributed around the softening focus without implanted cells in the softening focus. Surgical approach was coincided with the preoperative design and it successfully avoided the important brain functional area, ventricular system and softening focus.Conelnsion The preoperative design of surgical approach can not only ensure the cells being exactly transplanted into the reservation target and guarantee the curative effect, but also promise the surgical approach successfully avoiding the important brain functional area, ventricular system and softening focus and reduce the operative injury.

Mean hemoglobin (Hb) concentration of about 3 500 subjects derived from 17 studies of Himalayan highlanders (Tibetans, Sherpas, and Ladakhis) was compared with lowlanders (Chinese Han, Indian Tamils) lived in the Himalayas, and European climbers during Everest expeditions as well as Andean natives. The results found that Hb concentration in Himalayan highlanders was systemically lower than those reported for Andean natives and lowland immigrants. These comparative data demonstrated that a healthy native population may successfully reside at high altitude without a significant elevation in Hb, and the lower Hb levels of Himalayan highlanders than those of migrated lowlanders and Andean natives are an example of favourable adaptation over the generations. In addition, excessive polycythemia has frequently been used as a marker of chronic mountain sickness (CMS). Altitude populations who have a higher Hb concentration also have a higher incidence of CMS. The low Hb in Himalayans suggested as showing adaptation over many generations in Tibetan stock. Recent work in Tibet, suggested that Tibetans there may have adapted to high altitude as a result of evolutionary pressure selecting for genes which give an advantage at altitude. All of the population genomic and statistical analysis indicated that EPAS1 and EGLN1 are mostly likely responsible for high altitude adaptation and closely related to low Hb concentration in Tibetans. These data supported the hypothesis that Himalayan highlanders have evolved a genetically different erythropoietic response to chronic hypoxia by virtue of their much longer exposure to high altitude.

9.Calcaneus fractures and comparment syndromes of the foot.
China Journal of Orthopaedics and Traumatology 2009;22(8):615-616
OBJECTIVETo observe the relation of calcaneus fractures and compartment syhdromes of the foot taken place.
METHODSFrom April 2003 to March 2008, there were 78 cases with calcaneus fracures involving 72 males and 6 females, aged from 17 to 56 years (averaged 34.2 years). The intracompartment pressures of 54 feet with the severity swell were measured with the Whiteside's method. Among them, 8 patients were final diagnosed the compartment syndromes of the foot. After incision decompression through the foot bottom wall,the whole foot swell fade away quickly. After 5 to 10 days the decompression incision were sutured.
RESULTSThe 8 patients were followed up for from 7 to 12 months,kinesthetic sense of the whole foot was mormal. None of the cases occurrenced claw toes, instep contracture and stiffness of the toes, et al.
CONCLUSIONCompartment syndromes of the foot general occurrences during 1 to 3 days after calcaneus fractures. Fractures of Sanders II-IV is easy to complicate compartment syndromes of the foot.
