Objective To investigate the security and efficacy in the elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) treated by decitabine based regimen. Methods A retrospective analysis was carried out on 12 elderly patients with AML who were treated by decitabine alone or with low-dose chemotherapy in Beijing Luhe Hospital, Capital Medical University from June 2014 to December 2015. Results There were 6 patients of complete remission (CR), 5 patients of partial remission (PR), 1 patient of none remission (NR) after one course of chemotherapy. 1 case of 6 CR patients relapsed after 6 cycles of chemotherapy , others remained CR during the follow-up . Among 5 PR patients , 2 cases achieved CR , 1 patient relapsed after 2 cycles of chemotherapy and 2 patients relapsed after 3 cycles of chemotherapy. 1 patient remained NR after 2 cycles of chemotherapy and died of severe pulmonary infection. 3 of 4 complex karyotype patients had poor efficiency, and only 1 patient achieved CR but relapsed eventually. 7 patients achieved CR in patients with +8, -X or normal karyotype in the near future. The main adverse effects were bone marrow suppression and infection. All patients could tolerate. Conclusion Elderly patients with primary AML treated by decitabine alone or with low-dose chemotherapy show good effects, well tolerance and high safety, which could serve as the front-line treatment.

Objective:Comparative analysis of imaging features of abdominal CT, B ultrasound and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography in three different methods for detection of extrahepatic bile duct stones. Methods: A random sample of extrahepatic bile duct stones were a sample of 150 cases as the object of study, patients in the endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography after diagnosis, followed by B ultrasound examination, the implementation of CT scanning and MRI imaging in 142 cases, including 78 cases of B ultrasound detection, CT detection, 118 cases underwent MRI examination. Results: The detection results were recorded and compared the 3 imaging methods. Results: The positive rate of B ultrasound 39.4%, the positive rate of CT was 53.8%, MRI positive rate was 86.4%, the positive rate of MRI was significantly higher than that of B ultrasound and CT (x2=59.725, x2=25.595; P<0.01), the detection rate of CT was significantly higher than that of B ultrasound(x2=4.231, P<0.05). Diameter less than 8 mm of extrahepatic bile duct stones with B ultrasound and positive rate of 25%, the positive rate of CT was 33.3%, MRI positive rate was 60%, the positive rate of MRI was significantly higher than that of B ultrasound and CT(x2=7.789, x2=7.789;P<0.01), the detection rate of CT with no significant differences between the B ultrasound. Conclusion:MRI of extrahepatic bile duct stones with B ultrasound and the positive rate of CT is higher, but the clinical needs according to the comprehensive evaluation of individual patients, economic status, symptoms, diagnosis method for selecting suitable.

In order to reconstruct a bone defect as a result of a complete excision of osteofibromatosis with pathological fracture of an extremity, free transplantation of double vascularized long fibula segments was performed in 4 cases of osteofibroas hyperplasia with fracture. After a follow up of 1～2years, the grafted fibula attained a good bony union, and the limbs regained normal length and function. This seems to be an ideal way to repair huge bone defects as a result of excision of bone tumor of extremities.

Objective To investigate the possibility of inducing anergy by blocking the CD40/CD154 and B7/CD28 costimulatory pathways and the reversal condition of anergic cells. Methods Splenocyte proliferation in primary mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR) consisting of BALB/c as responder and C3H as stimulator was measured by the addition of different levels of anti-CD154 and anti-CD80 monocolonal antibody (mAb). To test the reversal condition of anergic cells induced by combined anti-CD154 and anti-CD80 mAbs blocking, C3H or C57BL/6J spleenocytes were irradiated, or different concentrations of recombinant mouse interleukin-2 (rmIL-2), or both C3H splenocytes and rmIL-2 were added to the anergic cells. Results The proliferation of anergic cells treated with both mAbs in the primary MLR was strongly inhibited in a dose-dependent manner. The cells proliferated in response to third party (C57BL/6J) stimulator. The cells did not respond to original (C3H) stimulator, and they also failed to proliferated in response to the addition of exogenous IL-2. Furthermore, the anergic state was reversed by both original (C3H) stimulator and the addition of exogenous rmIL-2. Conclusion The blockade of CD40/CD154 and B7/CD28 costimulatory pathways induces alloantigen-specific anergy, and the anergic state can be reversed by both antigen restimulation and the addition of exogenous IL-2.

BACKGROUND:It remains hard to judge characterization of lesion tissues using two-dimensional sectional image at present. Medical three-dimensional reconstruction technique could obviously improve work efficiency and accuracy of medical working staff on disease diagnosis.
OBJECTIVE:To develop a three-dimensional medical visualization system can rebuild three-dimensional model of corresponding parts by reading DICOM data, and observe the appearance of affected hip joint using reconstructed models.
METHODS:A three-dimensional (3D) medical visualization system was developed using the MFC in a PC with Windows XP operating system, development environment VC++6.0, VTK 5.6 instal ation, and necessary settings were made. Precise procedures are as fol ows: ① create a drawing object; ② create a drawing window, and draw objects was added in draw window; ③ read the CT image sequences, and set the path of the read image sequence; ④ isosurface (generate triangular facets) were extracted using MC algorithm, depending on the gray, skin and bones. Data of the input image sequence were set;gray value of tissue contour was set; ⑤the establishment of a V-belt objects and data mapping object; ⑥ graphics rendering, to receive the properties of the geometric data, and a different colors and transparency of bones and skin were set; ⑦ the viewing position was set to observe the position of the object and focus; ⑧ to create a human-computer interaction function.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:VC++6.0 and VTK could meet the needs of medical 3D visualization systems development. Developed 3D visualization system software could perform 3D reconstruction through reading CT images of DICOM format files. Thus, the relevant parts of the reconstructed 3D model could be observed by rotating, zooming, and panning so as to visual y observe the bone structure of hip joint, fractured appearance and type. It provided a reference for relevant therapy and operation.

BACKGROUND:It is difficult to adjust the anteversion angle of cementless hip joint. Some areas rely on the intraoperative three-dimensional navigation technique to ensure the accuracy of the anteversion angle, but its high cost limits the promotion prospects. OBJECTIVE:To design a kind of artificial femur head, which has special functions to freely adjust the anteversion angle of artificial femur head during operation and lock prosthesis handle to prevent femur prosthesis dislocation and looseness, and to intuitively display the special design concept of this kind of artificial femur head through the three-dimensional dynamic image aided by computer. METHODS:According to the design idea, AutoCAD software was used to get the design drawings for artificial femur head. The three-dimensional modeling was performed by 3DMax software in order to observe the form and degrees of verisimilitude of model. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The AutoCAD software was used to draw out the design drawings of artificial femur head according to the design requirements and design idea:the prosthesis handle had three lock hole channel and its basal part was for scale, and rotating the scale could change the anteversion angle of prosthesis neck;the shape of the prosthesis neck was dentate cylindrical. The 3DMax software was used to build the three-dimensional model of the artificial femur head, and the design, form and degrees of verisimilitude of the model comply with the design requirements. The whole structure of the three-dimensional model of artificial femur head is clear and the design is reasonable, which can provide a theoretical reference for further design of artificial femur head.

We described a simple method for determining glycated lipoproteins (glc Lps) in serum by agarose gel film electrophoresis, and color development with nitroblue tetrazolium. The resulting blue bands on the film were measured densitometrically at 545 nm to quantify ?-, pre-?-, and ?-glc Lps. The concentration of gfc ?-Lp in serum from diabetics was 2,2-fold higher than that in normal individuals. Diabetic patients with vascular complications had higher concentrations of glc ?-Lp than did patients without vascular complication. The concentration of glc ?-Lp (glc LDL) in serum may be a useful diagnostic indicator of diabetic vascular complications and their severity.
