Objective To explore the diagnosis and treatment of penile verrucous carcinoma,a distinctive variant of squamous cell carcinoma. Methods The clinical data of 8 patients (mean age,46 years) with penile verrucous carcinoma were analyzed retrospectively.All the tumors showed exophytic,papillary lesions,ranging from 2 to 6 cm in the greatest dimension.The tumors were located at glans in 5 patients and invaded to shafts in the other 3.The diagnosis was established by biopsy of the lesion.Three patients with tumor invading to shafts and 1 patient with large tumor at glans underwent partial penectomy, while the other 4 with the tumors localized at glans were treated by local excision. Results Histopathologic examination of the specimens confirmed tumors-free surgical margins in all the cases.The tumor cells were mostly well-differentiated.Fourteen months postoperatively,local recurrence occurred in 1 patient with local excision and partial penectomy was performed; postoperative follow-up of 9 years showed no recurrence and metastasis. During a follow-up of 4 to 13 years,the other 7 patients were disease-free.The patients with local excision of the tumors reported satisfaction of their sexual lives. Conclusions Verrucous carcinoma of penis is characterized by slow growth and a locally aggressive nature.It seldom develops metastasis to regional lymph nodes or distant areas.The prognosis is favorable after appropriate treatment.

ObjectiveTo discuss the relationships among spastic paralysis and motor function, balance function and other clinical variables after stroke.MethodsAssessed the clinical spastic index of hemiplegic lower limbs with CSI scale, motor function with Fugl-Meyer Assessment, and balance function with Berg Equilibrium Scale, respectively. And then analyzed the relationship between clinical spasm index with motor function, balance function of the hemiplegic lower limbs with Pearson correlation analysis. Finally, ascertained which was the most important factor affecting the clinical spasm index of spastic lower limbs with stepwise regression analysis.ResultsThere is negative correlation between clinical spasm index with motor function and balance function, respectively. Tendon reflex, muscular tension and clonus are the deciding factors to motor function(P<0.05) and balance function(P<0.05) of the hemiplegic lower limbs.ConclusionThe clinical spasm index of hemiplegic limbs can affect the recovery of motor function and balance function significantly. So, assessing and improving the clinical spasm index of paralytic lower limbs can optimize the rehabilitation program to stroke patients.

Objective To study the effect of electroencephalograph (EEG) bionic electrical stimulation at Wangu (GB12), Tianzhu (BL10), Neiguan (PC6) on cerebral blood flow and metabolism in patients with persistent vegetative state (PVS). Methods 60 patients with PVS were divided into observation group (n=30) and control group (n=30) according to the random number table. The control group received routine treatment, including basic management, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, awaking medicine, sensory stimulation, and so on; while the observation group received EEG bionic electrical stimulation at bilateral Tianzhu, Wangu (cheif electrodes) and Neiguan (auxiliary electrodes) in addition. They were treated for 30 days. They were assessed with the PVS score, and observed with transcranial Doppler ultrasound (TCD) and magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) one day before and one day after treatment. Results The incidence of improvement was 86.67% in the observation group, more than 60.00% in the control group (P<0.05). The difference of blood flow velocity before and after treatment (ΔVm) of anterior-middle cerebral artery was more in the observation group than in the control group respectively (P< 0.001), as well as those of posterior cerebral-vertebral-basilar artery (P<0.01). The N-acetyl aspartic acid/creatine (NAA/Cr) increased more in the observation group than in the control group respectively (P<0.01), and the choline/creatine (Cho/Cr) decreased more (P<0.01), after treatment. Conclusion EEG bionic electrical stimulation can improve the cerebral circulation and metabolism in patients with PVS, which may associate with the wake promoting.

Objective: To explore the relationship between serum levels of immunoglobulin E (IgE) and calciifc aortic valve disease (CAVD) in relevant patients.
Methods: A total of 394 patients were enrolled in our study. Based on echocardiography presentation, the patients were divided into 2 groups: CAVD group,n=169 and Non-CAVD group,n=225. Serum levels of IgE were examined by chemiluminescence method. The IgE levels were compared between 2 groups and the relationship between serum IgE level and CAVD was analyzed.
Results: Serum levels of IgE in CAVD group was significantly higher than Non-CAVD group 113.30 IU/ml vs 63.76 IU/ml (P<0.05); multivariate logistic regression analysis conifrmed above difference (P<0.05) and it also indicated that the alteration of surum IgE level is obviously related to CAVD occurrence.
Conclusion: Serum IgE level is obviously increased in CAVD patients. IgE is an independent biochemical indicator of CAVD, it may play the important role in CAVD pathogenesis.

Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is a common and complex neuropsychiatric complication in patients with liver cirrhosis and has the features of high incidence, recurrence, and mortality rates, and it is also an important factor for the increased risk of hospitalization and rehospitalization. At present, there are still no effective drugs for HE. Recent studies have found that intestinal microecological changes are associated with the development, progression, and prognosis of HE, and the regulation of intestinal flora has a certain preventive effect on HE. This article summarizes the research on the association between intestinal microecology and HE in recent years and hopes to provide new ideas for clinical prevention and treatment of HE.

Objective To observe the effects of repeated Botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) injection on lower limb spasticity after stroke.Methods 180 cases with lower limb spasticity after stroke were divided into the treatment group (n=90) and the control group (n=90). The treatment group was treated with BTX-A injection twice in the spastic muscles at interval of 3~6 months, while both the treatment group and the control group accepted the rehabilitation based on the neurodevelopmental therapy. They were assessed with modified Ashworth Scale (MAS), Fugl-Meyer Lower Limb Assessment (FMAL), Berg Balance Scale (BBS), modified Barthel Index (MBI) before each injection, and 3 d, 7 d, 1 month, 3 months after each injection or the same time for the controls. Results There was significant difference in scores of MAS, FMAL, BBS, MBI for the treatment group among before and 3 d, 7 d, 1 month after each injection (P<0.05), but not significant between 2 injections (P<0.05). There was significant difference in scores of all the assessment between the treatment and control group at the same time (P<0.01). Conclusion Repeated intramuscular injection of BTX-A can reduce the spasticity of lower limb after stroke.
