Objective To study the impact of main source voltage fluctuation on dose rate and dose delivery accuracy of BJ-6B accelerator. Methods The accelerator was calibrated by a voltage regulator at an output voltage of 332 V. The main source voltage fluctuation was simulated by changing the output of voltage regulator within the range of 321 - 338 V. The change of dose rate was recorded. Using a water phantom, each absorption dose was measured five times and averaged along the central beam axis at the depth of 1.5 cm, 5 cm and 10 cm, respectively, with the conditions of monitor unit: 100 MU ,field: 10 cm× 10 cm and SSD = 100 cm. The impact of voltage fluctuation on dose rate and dose delivery of BJ-6B accelerator was analyzed. Results Voltage fluctuation had an significant effect on dose rate. In a certain range, dose rate and absorption dose at different depths increased as the output voltage increased. Conclusions It is essential to equip the BJ-6B accelerator with a high accurate voltage stabilizer, and the voltage stabilizer must be adjusted to its highest accuracy.

Objective To investigate the expression and genetic alterations of KLF6 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and explore their functional mechanisms in the oncogenesis and development of HCC. Methods Real-time quantitative-PCR, direct sequencing and LOH approaches were used to detect KLF6 genetic abnormalities in HCC. The experiment had 2 groups, an experimental group and a control group. In the experimental group, the transfected plasmid pcDNA3.0 was recombined with KLF6 and tranfected into HCC HepG2 cells. MTT, flow cytometry and Western blotting were used to observe the effect of anti-oncogene wild type KLF6 on HepG2 cells by transgenic method for 48 h.Results Expression levels of KLF6 were significantly downregulated in HCCs(P<0. 01), as detected by qRT-PCR. LOH occurred in 11 (52%) of the 21 tumors, and all the samples with LOH showed KLF6 down-regulation. The mutational frequency was 29%, and sequence changes located in activation domain of KLF6. Meanwhile, MTT assay showed a significant antiproliferative effect of the transfected wtKLF6 on HepG2 cells(42.7%, P<0.05). Fluorescence-activated cell sorting analysis revealed that KLF6 induced apoptosis. Conclusion The deregulation of KLF6 together with genetic abnormalities of allelic imbalance and mutations may play an important role in HCC pathogenesis.

Objective To study the maintenance of BJ-6B accelerator. Methods Analyzed retrospectively the maintenance record of BJ-6B accelerator, including phenomena, causes and handle from 2002 to 2009. Results In 231 records, there were motion-controlling 64, hand-controlling-pendant 20.modulator 41, anti-peak overload 36, charging overload 5. Flatness 7, mechanical 21, digital-display 20,others lie in magnetron power, water-cooling system, light-indicator system, dose-monitor system and wedge system. Motion-controlling system is the highest among those, followed by high-voltage modulator and mechanical system. Conclusions The down time for BJ-6B accelerator is low because of its perfect technology. To keep its stability in clinic, the hospital authorities should emphasize training of engineer for improving their maintenance ability. The engineer must be familiar with the circuit diagram, check the electric wire and machine unit on time and prepare unit for maintenance. The temperature and humidity in machine house must be controlled on demand. The engineer must pay attention to machine parameters when beam is on for avoiding the spark's damage to magnetron and accelerating-tube

Objective To study the effect of CT scanning condition on the target position coordinate with WIMRT radiotherapy planning system using the" Z" form localizing frame. Methods The whole Head Phantom containing three metal targets was scanned under the following conditions: localizing frame transver-sally tilting, CT gantry tilting and localizing frame axially tilting. Then the three target coordinates were com-puted respectively and compared with those under the standard condition. Results The height and width of coordinate under the localizing frame transversally tilting condition deviated from those under the standard scanning condition,which was in an angle dependent manner. On the other hand ,a tendency was shown that the greater the absolute height value of the targets coordinate, the greater the width value deviation. And so was the relation between the absolute width value of the coordinate and height value deviation. If CT gantry angle was not zero degree or localizing frame axis is not in the same line with the CT bed moving direction, the calculated longititude value of the targets coordinate was mainly affected. Conclusions CT scanning must be performed strictly under the standard localizing scanning condition by a proficient physicist.

Objective To evaluate the status of lymph node micrometastases in "non-metastatic" No11P lymph nodes as judged by conventional pathology in the lower third of gastric cancer. Methods In this study 43 No11P lymph nodes harvested from 43 patients which was histologically free of metastasis were examined by consecutive sections and TRAP( telomeric repeat amplification protocol)-ELISA (enzyme linked immunosorbent assay). The data were statistically analyzed according to the clinicopathological features of the patients. Results Micrometastasis was discovered in 4 lymph nodes from 4 patients by consecutive sections. The micrometastatic rate of the conventional pathologic non-metastatic No11P lymph nodes was 9%. The micrometastatic rate of the conventional pathologic non-metastasis No11P lymph nodes detected by TRAP-ELISA was 44%, including 4 lymph nodes observed by consecutive sections It revealed that lymph nodes micrometastases were correlated with the size of the tumor( x2 = 8. 488, P < 0. 05 )、and tumor stage (x2 = 12. 022,P < 0. 05 ). It also showed that the micrometastatic rate increased proportionally to tumor infiltration depth(x2 =6. 473, P <0. 05), not correlated with patients' demographic features, general type and histological differentiation of the tumor. Conclusions There was a high rate of micrometastasis in No11P lymph nodes. This lymph nodes micrometastasis was correlated with the size of the tumor, invasion depth of primary tumor and patients' clinical stage.
