SALL4 gene is closely related to body malformations related diseases, embryonic stem cell development, and hematopoietic malignancies. SALL4 can activate hematopoietic stem cell through Wnt signaling pathways, and promote continued proliferation of leukemia stem cells, leading to leukemia. In-depth study of SALL4 gene and its protein function will help clarify the pathogenesis of leukemia, providing a new target for the treatment of leukemia.

Currently,medical ethics education is well popularized,yet not popular among medical students,interns or clinical doctors,for which its formalistic teaching content and mode are to blame.To realize its real educative effects,infiltrating medical ethics into the ideological perception among medical students,interns and clinical doctors,besides horizontal expansion in education popularity,more emphasis should be put to grasping and instructing the essence of medical ethics on a vertical level in order to make the recognition of medical ethics education as common sense among medical professionals.

Objective To identify the influencing factors for pediatric nursese' reporting of adverse events at 3A hospitals in Beijing. Methods Adopting the random sampling of ten 3A hospitals with pediatric wards in Beijing and conducting an questionnaire survey of some nurses in those hospitals. Results The possibility of adverse events reporting increased with the awareness of adverse events which was related with their severity. Except for title, educational background, length of service, position and past experiences were not associated with the barriers. The major perceived barrier was fear of colleague relationship brokenup and some other undesirable consequence. Conclusions Better training of awareness of adverse events and changes of the punitive culture by the roots as well as some regulation or policy were the major solutions to improve incident reporting.

Objective To observe the curative effect of simvastatin to treat carotid atheroma. Methods 106 patients with carotid atheroma were randomly divided into two groups. The treatment group( n=56) was given orally 20 micro-gram of simvastatin every night, while the matched control group( n = 50) was given 100 microgram of aspirin enteric-coated everyday for 4 months. Results After four months of follow-up, the carotid artery inner-intermediate thickness and the speckle's size,examined by the color Doppler, were obviously decreased ( P 0.05). Conclusion Simvastatin can obviously ameliorate the carotid atheroma. It can be served as one of the normal selections for treating the carotid atheroma.

Objective To investigate the principles of combined traditional Chinese and western medicine treatment of early postoperation inflammatory small bowel obstruction(EPISBO).Methods 93 cases of EPISBO were randomly divided into two groups including group A,47 cases received combined traditional Chinese and west- ern medicine treatment,and group B 46 received only western medicine treatment.Results 93 patients were all cured through nonsurgical treatment.The combined traditional Chinese and western medicine treatment was better in symtom improvement and reduce of expense.Conclusion The principle treatment of EPISBO is mainly nonsurgical. The traditional Chinese medicine and somatostatin are very important.

Objective To investigate the clinical and imaging features of Foot-Yangming meridian-muscle syndrome of knee osteoarthritis(KOA) so as to promote the normalization and standardization of the meridian-muscle therapies. Methods A total of 31 KOA cases (involving 31 knees) of Foot-Yangming meridian-muscle syndrome were included into the study group , and 31 healthy volunteers (involving 31 knees) served as the control group. A retrospective research of patellofemoral relationship was carried out based on the clinical and imaging features. Results The differences of Insall index and patella index between the study group and control group were insignificant(P> 0 . 05), but the differences of patellofemoral index , patellofemoral congruence angle, and external patellar angle between the study group and control group were significant(P<0.01). Conclusion The patellofemoral relationship disorder is one of main lesions in Foot-Yangming meridian-muscle syndrome of KOA.

Objective To investigate the Shenmai injection for the inhibition of hepatic and renal toxicity and leukocyte disorder during chemoradiotherapy in the women with advanced breast cancer. Methods 58 cases of female breast cancer patients with stage Ⅳ were selected and randomly divided into 2 groups, 29 cases of each group, and patients were treated with 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT3) receptor antagonists and white blood cell growth hormone and other conventional therapy, the control group received gemcitabine plus cisplatin chemotherapy, 28d for 1 cycles, the treatment group received more with Shenmai injection, interval was 15d, 2 groups were treated for 3 cycles. Levels of peripheral blood T lymphocyte subsets, cytokine levels and liver and kidney function, quality of life and clinical efficacy were compared. Results Compared with before treatment, levels of CD3+, CD4+ and CD4+/CD8+ in control group decreased (P<0.05), levels of CD3+, CD4+ and CD4+/CD8+ in treatment group increased (P<0.05), levels of CD8+ decreased(P<0.05), levels of IFN-γ, IL-2 and TNF-α increased(P<0.05), levels of IL-6 decreased(P<0.05), scores of KPS increased(P<0.05), scores of FACT-B decreased(P<0.05), levels of ALT, AST, BUN increased(P<0.05), and levels of CCr, WBC counts decreased(P<0.05), and compared with the control group, levels of CD3+ , CD4+ and CD4+/CD8+ in the treatment group were higher(P<0.05), levels of CD8+ were lower(P<0.05), levels of IFN-γ, IL-2 and TNF-α were higher(P<0.05), levels of IL-6 were lower(P<0.05), and the total efficiency was higher(P<0.05), levels of ALT, AST, BUN were lower (P<0.05), and levels of CCr, WBC counts were higher (P<0.05). After treatment, the efficacy of treatment group was higher than that of control group(Z=-2.142,P=0.032<0.05). Conclusion Shenmai injection can improve the efficacy of radiotherapy and chemotherapy in patients with advanced breast cancer, and it can effectively inhibit the liver and kidney damage and leukocyte disorder.

Hospitalization expenses constitute the main part of the compensation of medical insurance.The aim of this paper is to analyze the variation of medical expenses of hospitalized patients with medical insurance in different modes of accounting,find the influencing factors in accounting quotas on hospitalization expenses,and set up a scientific and reasonable mode of accounting with a full consideration of the huge demands of medical resources.

Objective To assess examinational methods of Multi-slice CT(MSCT)in diagnosis of palatine lesions. Methods 28 cases were performed MSCT examination with the conventional method,extending -tongue method,colliding-tongue method and pronouncing method. All images were reconstructed by means of multiplana reconstruction (MPR) and CT virtual endoscope (CTVE). Results Correct diagnosis were obtained through the complementarity of the methods. Conclusion Reasonable examination methods of MSCT is apt to display palatine lesions.
