Purpose To study the prevalence and feature of EGR gene rearrangement in prostatic carcinoma. Methods 242 consecu-tive core biopsies of prostatic carcinoma were evaluated. All biopsy specimens contained 6-14 cores from left and right sides separately delivered. The patient age ranged 58 to 91 years, and PSA value 5 ng/ml to more than 5 000 ng/ml. Immunohistochemistry ( IHC) for ERG protein overexpression and fluorescent in situ hybridization ( FISH) for ERG gene rearrangement were performed. Results 42 cases were detected positive for ERG by IHC ( positive rate 17. 4%) , and positive for ERG rearrangement by FISH either, with 19 ca-ses showing fusion through deletion and 23 through insertion, while no negative cases by IHC demonstrated positive by FISH. 5 cases revealed positive and negative staining in different carcinoma foci of ERG. No ERG positive staining and rearrangement were found in adjacent benign glands. Of positive cases, 12 cases were graded as Gleason score 6, 23 Gleason score 7, and 7 Gleason score 8 or more. Positive rate was 19. 6% in the group of PSA value less than 100 ng/ml, and 10% of more than 100 ng/ml, whereas 17. 2% in the group of clinical T3 stage or less, and 19% of clinical T4 and lymph node or remote metastasis. ERG rearrangement was associated with lower Gleason score, but not with PSA value, clinical stage and progression using theχ2 test analysis. Conclusions IHC is relia-ble for detection ERG rearrangement and helpful for interpretation of prostatic carcinoma. Multiple foci are common in prostatic carcino-ma. There is no significance between ERG rearrangement and disease prognosis.

Objective:To study the related factors of severe acute radiation-induced lung injury (SAR) caused by IMRT and concurrent chemotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer. Methods:We retrospectively analyzed the data of 2 323 non-small cell lung cancer pa-tients who underwent IMRT radiotherapy and concurrent chemotherapy at the Department of Radiotherapy of Tianjin Medical Univer-sity Cancer Institute and Hospital from January 2010 to January 2014. We analyzed the clinical factors and parameters that affect dose by univariate and multivariate analysis. Results:A total of 2 323 patients enrolled and 1 241 cases suffering from acute radiation-in-duced lung injury with the rate of 53.4%. Only 185 cases suffered from SARP with a rate of 7.96%. Univariate analysis showed that the gender, histopathological type, total radiation dose, V5 (%), and average dose rate are not related to SARP (P>0.05). By contrast an age of>60 years, 1%predicted FEV, docetaxel+carboplatin/cisplatin chemotherapy, V20 (%), V30 (%), and mean lung dose (MLD) are sig-nificantly related to SARP (P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that a patient age of>60 years, docetaxel+carboplatin/cisplatin che-motherapy, V20 (%), and V30 (%) are the independent risk factors of SARP. Conclusion:Among the non-small cell lung cancer patients undergoing IMRT radiotherapy and concurrent chemotherapy, further attention should be given to elderly patients, patients receiving docetaxel and platinum chemotherapy, as well as V20 and V30 with high doses. The necessary preventive treatment should be given to reduce the incidence of SARP, improve the quality of life of patients, and reduce the incidence of respiratory failure and mortality.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy of relaxing needling plus joint needling from the Internal Medicine in treating post-stroke spastic hemiplegia.MethodTotally 121 eligible subjects were randomized intoan ordinary acupuncture group (61 cases) and a relaxing-joint needling group (60 cases). The two groups were treated for 2 weeks, 5 sessions each week. The spasm of the lower limb was evaluated by using Fugl-Meyer Assessment Scale (FMA), modified AshworthScale (MAS), Tardieu Scale, and Activities of Daily Living (ADL) before and after treatment. Besides, 4 patients from each group were randomly selected for the three-dimensional gait analysis, and the dorsi-extension, range of motion (ROM) of ankle, strephenopodia, and heel-raising height were observed.Result and ConclusionRelaxing-joint needling and ordinary acupuncture both can produce significant efficacies in treating post-stroke spastic hemiplegia. The relaxing-joint needling produced more significant efficacies in improving the body balance, ROM, muscular tension, and lower limb spasticity compared to ordinary acupuncture. It’s plausible that relaxing-joint needling improves the strephenopodia and hemiplagia gait through renovating body balance, ROM, muscular tension, and lower limb spasticity. Since the three-dimensional gait analysis can analyze the dorsi-extension, strephenopodia, and heel-raising height, thus it can be used to evaluate the change of the spastic gait of post-stroke hemiplegia in amore objective, elaborate, and correct way.
