Objective To study the association among the color Doppler flow pattern, vascular distribution and the lymph nodes metastasis in breast carcinomas. Methods Sixty-eight patients with infiltrating mammary gland duct carcinoma were divided into the no-lymph-nodes-metastasis group (group I , 37 cases) and the lymph-nodes-metastasis group (group Ⅱ , 31 cases), group Ⅱ were subdivided into group Ⅱa (19 cases): lateral lymph nodes positive of pectoralis minor and group Ⅱ b (12 cases): rear of pectoralis minor and subclavian lymph node positive. Blood flow parameters [peak systoltc velocity (PSV),resistent index ( RI)] and vascular Alder grades were observed and measured with color Doppler ultrasound.The results were compared with the incidence of lymph node metastasis. Results PSV and RI were not significantly different between group Ⅰ and group Ⅱ (t = -0.19,-0.63,P＞ 0.05),and also between group Ⅱ a and group Ⅱ b (t =-1.12,-013,P ＞0.05). By using vascular Alder grades,there were no significant differences between group Ⅰ and group Ⅱ (x2= 0.46, P＞ 0.05 ), but the significant differences were observed between group Ⅱ a [10.5%(2/19) ,63.2%( 12/19) ,26.3%(5/19) in Alder Ⅰ , Ⅱ , Ⅲ grade] and group Ⅱ b [8.3%( 1/12), 16.7%(2/12),75.0%(9/12)in Alder Ⅰ , Ⅱ ,Ⅲ grade](x2 = 7.41,P＜0.05). Conclusion The pattern of blood flow has no correlation with lymph nodes metastasis, vascular Alder grades of carcinoma shows some relevance with the lymph nodes metastasis in the patients with infiltrating mammary gland duct carcinoma.

Objective To study the relationship between the cerebral artery stenosis and the carotid artery elasticity in the ischemia stroke patients by echo-tracking technique.Methods Ninety-two ischemia stroke patients were divided into both the mild cerebral arteries stenosis and moderate-severe cerebral arteries stenosis groups.CT angiography was performed to evaluate the stenosis of cerebral artery.The changes of the carotid diameter during cardiac cycles were obtained by echo-tracking technique and the quantitative parameters of pressure-strain elastic modulus (Ep),stiffness (β) and arterial compliance (AC) were calculated automatically. Results①There were significant differences (P＜0.05) between the ischemia stroke patient group and the normal adults group in β，Ep and AC.② There were significant differences (P＜0.05) between the mild cerebral arteries stenosis groups and the moderate-severe cerebral arteries stenosis groups in β and Ep.AC was lower in patients with the mild cerebral arteries stenosis groups than that in the moderate-severe cerebral arteries stenosis groups.Conclusions The carotid artery elasticity in ischemia stroke patients were significantly different from normal adults.In the ischemia stroke patients,the stiffer the carotid artery was,the higher the likelihood of moderate-severe cerebral stenosis was.

Objective To study the simple preparation method and structure of nano-hydroxyapatite/collagen composite, to investigate new substitute of repairing bone for using in tissue engineering. Methods Porous nano-hydroxyapatite was made of Ca (OH)2 and H3PO4. Collagen was drawn from fresh adult bovine tendon. The two materials were prepared into biomembrane through the glutaraldehyde and freeze-drying. The crystallite phase, micro-morphology, structure, crystallite size of the composite were examined by XRD and scanning electronic microscop (SEM). Results The results showed that the composite structure was porous and consisted of nano-hydroxyapatite (10 nm ? 50 nm - 20 nm ? 80 nm) and collagen fiber. The crystallite phases and size of the composite was similar to that of natural bone. Conclusion The porous nano-hydroxyapatite /collagen composite is expected to be an ideal substitute of repairing bone.

Objective To observe the effect of dexmedetomidine on plasma SDF-1 level in in hepatic portal occlusion operation.Methods Fifty patients with live cancer undergoing elective partial hepatectomy were selected,no gender limitation,aged 42 to 71,body mass index(BMI) 18.5 ～ 26.0 kg/m2,ASA grade Ⅱ or Ⅲ.The patients were randomly divided into 2 groups(n=25):control group and dexmedetomidine group.The dexmedetomidine group was performed the pump injection of dexmedetomidine 1 μg/kg at 15 min before induction of anesthesia.After induction the rate was changed to 0.4μg · kg-1 · h-1 until 15 min before the end of operation;the control group adopted the same method for conducting continuous intraverous infusion of the same capaci ty of 0.9％ sodium chloride.The peripheral venous blood was collected in 2 groups at preoperative 1 h (T0),postoperative 1 h (T1),postoperative 1 d (T2),postoperative 3 d(T3).The plasma SDF-1 level was detected by using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Results There was no statistically significant difference in liver resection range,blood loss,first porta hepatis vessel occlusion time,anesthesia time and plasma SDF-1 level before surgery between the two groups (P＞0.05).Compared with pre-operation,plasma SDF-11evel at T1,T2,T3 time point was significantly increased (P＜0.05).The plasma SDF-1 level at T1,T2,T3 time point in the dexmedetomidine group was lower than that in the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion SDF-1 expression is significantly increased during perioperative period in the patients with hepatic portal occlusion operation,and intraoperative continuous dexmedetomidine can significantly reduce the SDF-1 level,which inhibits the chemotaxis and accumulation of inflammatory ceils to some extent.

Objective:To explore the association between CYP2D6 gene polymorphism of cytochrome and clinical response to atomoxetinein children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.Methods:Totally 111 Han Chinese boys meeting criteria for ADHD in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders,Fourth Edi-tion (DSM-IV)were recruited.Atomoxetine treatment was given in titrated doses in order to achieve optimal re-sponse.Behavior changes were measured with the ADHD Rating Scale (ADHD-RS)at baseline and after optimal doses were reached.The decrease of ADHD-RS scores were primary measures of the treatment effect,the scores of the items in the ADHD-RS was less than or equal to 1 for the remission criteria.The three SNPs of CYP2D6 genes(rs1080985,rs1065852,rs16947)were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction (PCR).Results:There was no asso-ciation between single polymorphisms andatomoxetine after adjusting for baseline rating scores (P >0.05).In con-trast,haplotype analysis revealed that some patients with GAC haplotype achieved significant remission [remission vs.non-remission haplotype frequency (rate):5 /56 (8.9%)vs.3 /164(1.8%),P <0.05 ].After multiple testing correction still existed significant trend(P =0.082)and also found correlation trends after correlation analysis be-tween GAC haplotype and clinical response to atomoxetine (P =0.078),8 patients with GAC haplotype carriers were all effective response to treatment,non-responders without this haplotype.Conclusion:These results suggest association between polymorphisms of CYP2D6 gene and ADHD better clinical improvement with atomoxetine treatment,it is worth further exploration in a large sample.

· AIM: To study the in situ relative intraocular position of the iris-claw phakic intraocular lens (PIOL)for high myopia using an anterior chamber optical coherence tomography (AC OCT)prototype.· METHODS: Six PIOLs (11.50 to 22.00D lens powers) were implanted in phakic myopic eyes. Using AC OCT, tomography was taken in the anterior chamber to measure the preoperative anterior chamber depth, postoperative distance between the PIOL and the corneal endothelium (endothelial-optic distance), and the postoperative distance between the PIOL and the crystalline lens.· RESULTS: Preoperative anterior chamber depth ranged from 3.27 to 3.91 mm and the postoperative endothelial-optic distance measured 2,07 to 2,24 mm. The distance between the crystalline lens and the posterior surface of the IOL ranged from 0.82 to 1.32 mm. Several tomography revealed the position of the PIOL on the iris, The pigment layer of the iris did not seem to be disturbed by the presence of the PIOL.· CONCLUSION, The original anterior chamber depths were reduced by 36,1% to 44.6% after implantation. This study of 6 eyes revealed that tomography taken by AC OCT are useful in verifying the intraocular position of the PIOL within the anterior chamber. Adequate space was maintained between the iris-fixated phakic intraocular lens and the corneal endothelium, angle, and crystalline lens.
