Objective To explore the related structures of retrosigmoid approach by microanatomy and virtual anatomy and provide a reliable approach with more morphologic data. Methods Twenty sides of 10 adult cadaveric heads were dissected to simulate retrosigmoid approach under the microscope. The neurovascular structures of pontocerebellar trigone were observed, and the related structures were simultaneously measured based on the junction of superior petrosal sinus and sigmoid sinus and internal acoustic pore. The internal auditory canal was opened by drilling the margin of the internal auditory meatus and its structures were watched. With the help of Dexotroscope system, the data of five patients' CT and MRI were applied to reconstruct and anatomize the structure of retrosigmoid approach. Results It was found that the distance from the junction of superior petrosal sinus and sigmoid sinus to the trigeminal nerve was (38.50±2.64)mm, to the acoustic-facial bundle (27.80±2.25)mm, to the glossopharyngeal nerve (32.70±2.11)mm, to the hypoglossal nerve (44.30±2.05)mm, and the distance from internal acoustic pore to the trigeminal nerve was (5.68±1.55)mm, to the abducent nerve (13.80±1.81)mm, to the tentorium of cerebellum (5.00±0.66)mm, to the glossopharyngeal nerve (6.34±1.24)mm. The pontocerebellar trigone was divided into the anterior compartment, the middle compartment, the posterior compartment built on the acoustic-facial bundle and the glossopharyngeal nerve. Their structures were displayed after drilling the margin of the internal auditory meatus. Dexotroscope system clearly displayed asterion, the angle of transverse and sigmoid sinus, jugular foramen, internal acoustic pore, basilar artery and its branches, and theirs spatial relationship.Conclusion The three compartments of the pontocerebellar trigone are helpful to understand the feature of the neurovascular layer, the measurement is favorable to quantize the relation of the related structures and to judge the space of each compartment. Recognizing the anatomical marker of internal acoustic pore can support preservation of the inner structures. Virtual anatomy of Dexotroscope system can display local anatomical structure respectively. Both microanatomy and virtual anatomy have their advantages and disadvantages respectively and integration can be beneficial to understand neurovascular structures in the pontocerebellar trigone.

Objective To investigate the expression and distribution of COX-2 in benign and malignant breast disease,and the relationship among COX-2 expression and the clinicopathologic factors,hormone receptors.Methods Immunohistochemistry Was used to investigate the expression and distribution of COX-2 in 8 accessory.breasts,31 BPBDs(15 in adnosis,16 in fibroadnoma),70 IDCs(35 of them accompany with DCIS);The relationships between the expression of COX-2 and hormone receptor(ER and PR),C-erbB-2.and the clinicopathologic factors were studied respectively.Results①The expression of COX-2 in various kinds mammary diseases:8 accessory breasts were all negative;the positive rate of COX-2 in BPBD was 96.5%(30/31),among these,the positive rate of COX-2 in adnosis was 93.3%(14/15),and in fibroadnonm was 100%(16/16).The positive rate of COX-2 in DCIS was 85.7%(30/35).The intensity of COX-2 expression in DCIS of periph-IDC was higher than that in corresponding carcinoma.The positive rate of COX-2 in IDC Was 84.3%(59/70),the expression of COX-2 Was different among non-cancer gland.②COX-2 expression in BPBD was obviously higher compared with COX-2 in IDC,the difference was significant in statistics(χ2=9.39,P＜0.025).③The expression of COX-2 in DCIS was correlative with low histological differentiation(χ2=10.98,P＜0.005),PR negative(P=0.019,Fisher exact probability),and C-erbB-2 positive(P=0.0008,Fisher exact probability).The expression of COX-2 in IDC was correlative with lymph node metastasis(χ2=4.09,P＜0.05),tissue poorly differentiated(P=0.004,Fisher exact probability),PR negative(χ2=6.91,P＜0.01)and C-erbB-2 positive(χ2=5.94,P＜0.025).Conclusion COX-2 does not express in normal mammary gland.It is high-expressed in BPBD,DCIS and IDC;These indicate the up-regulation of COX-2 expression not only participates in breast carcinogenesis,but also promotes its metastasis and progression,and suggests COX-2 may down-regulate reactivity of endocrine thempy by participating in therapy resistance of PR negative breast cancer.

Objective To investigate the clinicopathologic features of gastrointestinal stromal tumors(GISTs). MethodsThe diagnosis and treatment results of GISTs were studied, and clinicopathologic features and immunohistochemical expressions of CD34, smooth muscle actin (SMA) and S-100 protein were detected in 26 cases of GISTs. ResultsThe tumor was found in the stomach(54%), small intestine(38%) and rectum(8%), and malignant tumors accounted for 77% of the cases. The size of tumors was correlated with the malignancy of GISTs significantly(P0.05). ConclusionsTumor size is a predictor of the malignancy of GISTs, and the immunophenotype is not a predictor.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of adding gold when determing the memory effect and stability of mercury by ICP-MS, and determine the appropriate amount of gold. METHODS: ICP-MS method was used to determine the amount of mercury in the solution. The RF power was 1 550 W, flow rate of carrier gas was 1.05 L•min-1, plasma gas flow rate was 15.0 L•min-1, peristaltic pump speed was 0.2 r•s-1, and sampling depth was 8 mm. The integration time was 0.1 s. RESULTS: Mercury solution began to demonstrate obvious memory effect at the concentration of 0.4 ng•mL-1. It gradually became unstable and the coefficient of variation gradually increased after being placed at room temperature for more than 2 h in the absence of stabilizer. After adding gold, the mercury soulution was stable within 48 h, and the coefficient of variation was within 5%. When the ratio of gold to mercury was 2∶1, the memory effect of mercury was decreaed, and its stability was well guaranteed. There was no difference when the mercury standard solution was prepared with or without other elements. CONCLUSION: This study plays a reference role in the detection and analysis of mercury and provides technical support for the revision and improvement of relevant detection methods.

Objective To investigate the expression of apoptosis-related neuclosome assembly protein-1(NAP-1) gene in related brain region of 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine(MPTP) treated mice and beta-amyloid treated rats. Methods The animal models with central nervous system degeneration were established by consecutive administration of MPTP to C57BL mice and injection of beta-amyloid to brain ventricular of SD rats. The RNA in striatum and substantia nigra of mice and the RNA in cortex and hippocampus of rats were extracted. The levels of NAP-1 mRNA in these samples were estimated by RT-PCR. Results For mice, the expression of NAP-1 were decreased after MPTP treatment in substantia nigra, while its expression showed no significant change in striatum. In contrast, no effect on NAP-1 gene expression by beta-amyloid injection can be detected in cortex and hippocampus of rats. Conclusions The apoptosis of dopaminergic neurons in nigrostriatal pathway after MPTP treatment may be related to the expression of NAP-1 gene. But the mechanism of neurodegeneration after beta-amyloid injection in rats may be different.

Objective To investigate the clinical effects of different doses of propranolol in treatment of infantile mixed and deep hemangioma,and to provid theoretical and experimental evidence for the treatment of hemangioma. Methods The selected 62 patients with mixed and deep hemangioma were divided randomly into low dose (1.5mg·kg-1 ·d-1 )and high dose (3.0 mg·kg-1 ·d-1 )of propranolol groups,3 times a day,6 months as a course,the changes in hemangioma size and the incidence of adverse reactions were recorded.Results The efficacy was evaluated using Achauer system.The total effective rate was 80.65% in low dose of propranolol group and 93.55% in high dose of propranolol group,including 6 cases of class Ⅰ (poor),9 cases of class Ⅱ (moderate), 11 cases of classⅢ (good),and 5 cases of class Ⅳ (excellent)in low dose propranolol group;while 2 cases of class Ⅰ (poor),4 cases of class Ⅱ (moderate),10 cases of class Ⅲ (good)and 15 cases of Ⅳ (excellent)in high dose of propranolol group.The efficacy in high dose of proprandol group was significantly better than that in low dose of proprandol group (P<0.05),there were no significant differences in the efficacies between different sites and different types (P>0.05)and there was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reaction between two groups (P>0.05).Conclusion The efficacy of oral 3.0 mg·kg-1 ·d-1 propranolol in treatment of infantile mixed and deep hemangioma is increased significantly, and there is no significant adverse reactions after increasing doses.Therefore,high dose of propranolol should be recommended in order to improve the therapeutic effect.
