In recent years, there is some new recognition about the origin of prostatic carcinoma, prostatic carcinoma has been considered as a stem cell disease. Prostate cancer stem cells have close relationship with prostatic carcinoma formation, advancement, relapse, metastasis and drug resistance. As the development of science and technology continues, studies on the isolation and correlated phenotype identification of prostate cancer stem cells have lead us to further recognize prostate cancer stem cells, as well pave a new way for the diagnosis and therapy of clinical prostatic carcinoma.

Objective To assess the effects of intraventricular conduction abnormality on left ventricular function in dilated cardiomyopathy. Methods The study composed of 3 groups,16 patients of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) without wide QRS complexes, 16 patients of DCM with complete left bundle branch block(CLBBB),and 16 age-matched healthy individuals,all showing sinus rhythm and being complicated with mitral regurgitation. Pre-ejection contraction time(PET), left ventricular ejection time(LVET), left ventricular filling time(LVFT), myocardial performance index(MPI), mitral regurgitation time(MRT), stroke volume(SV) were recorded with pulsed or continuous-wave Doppler. Pulse tissue Doppler imagining(TDI) was performed to measure the time dispersity of electromechanical motion of left ventricular in systole and diastole on the atrial-ventricular annulus with mapping techniques. Results Time dispersity of electromechanical motion of adjacent left ventricular segments in systole[((77.9)?(13.6))ms vs ((52.1)?(13.2))ms vs ((28.3)?(7.2))ms, P

The concept of golden mean (Zhong Yong), i.e. moderation, is the highest principle of moral cultivation in Confucianism. It entails an exclusive methodology in addressing politics, philosophy and everything in the universe. This concept has permeated into all aspects of traditional Chinese culture. As an ancient therapy, tuina is an important part of Chinese medicine and has its characteristic theory and methods. Just like Chinese medicine, tuina has long been greatly influenced by the concept of golden mean. To better promote the development of tuina, it’s necessary to investigate the historical evolution of tuina and the concept of golden mean as well as the influence of ‘golden mean’ idea on tuina manipulation, mechanism and treatment.

BACKGROUND:Biomechanical studies on elderly subtrochanteric fracture by different fixation ways were more, but study on relatively proximal femoral nail antirotation-II (PFNA) and Asia 2 femur nail (A2FN) fixation for femoral subtrochanteric fractures in the elderly was less. OBJECTIVE:To study the biomechanical analysis of intramedul ary nail PFNA-II and A2FN fixation for elderly femoral subtrochanteric fractures. METHODS:Three-dimensional finite element models of femoral subtrochanteric fractures fixed by PFNA-II and A2FN in the elderly were established. Three-dimensional finite element analysis was used to analyze stress distribution and displacement after femoral subtrochanteric fractures by PFNA-II and A2FN fixation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) The overal maximum stress, nail maximum stress and hip screw or spiral blade maximum stress values of PFNA-II intramedul ary fixation system were higher than that of A2FN intramedul ary fixation system. The distal locking maximum stress value and femoral head surface maximum stress values of PFNA-II intramedul ary fixation system were lower than that of A2FN intramedul ary fixation system. (2) The maximum displacement of PFNA-II intramedul ary fixation system was mainly concentrated in the large trochanter and femoral head pole. The maximum displacement of A2FN intramedul ary fixation system was mainly concentrated in the large trochanter. The maximum displacement of PFNA-II intramedul ary fixation system was higher than that of A2FN intramedul ary fixation system. The maximum axial displacement of PFNA-II intramedul ary fixation system was higher than that of A2FN intramedul ary fixation system. The maximum sagittal displacement of PFNA-II intramedul ary fixation system was higher than that of A2FN intramedul ary fixation system. The maximum coronal displacement of PFNA-II intramedul ary fixation system was higher than that of A2FN intramedul ary fixation system. (3) The lateral fissure, front fissure and rear fissure of PFNA-II intramedul ary fixation system were higher than that of A2FN intramedul ary fracture fixation system, but the difference was less pronounced. (4) The maximum stress value on fracture section of PFNA-II intramedul ary fracture fixation system was lower than that of A2FN intramedul ary fixation system. (5) Results showed that A2FN intramedul ary fixation system for intertrochanteric fractures has better biomechanical stability than PFNA-II intramedul ary fixation system for intertrochanteric fractures.

Objective To detect the value of qualitative and orientating diagnosis in the degeneration stage of cerebral cysticercosis with Gd-DTPA enhanced MR. Methods Sixty-nine cases of cerebral cysticercosis were diagnosed by enhanced MR as degeneration stage, and confirmed by immunological examination and/or by surgery. MR plain scanning was conducted for the same cases. Results The plain scanning showed single or multiple lesions with long T1 and long T2 signals, and the enhanced scanning showed nodular or annular lesions. The diameter of the lesion after enhanced scan was not more than 22mm with an average value of 8.1mm. Some cases showed single lesion on plain scanning but showed multiple lesions after enhanced scan. Conclusion The enhanced MR shows more typical features of the degeneration stage cerebral cysticercosis. It can define the number, position and range of the lesions, and can improve the accuracy of differential diagnosis, and therefore be of importance in formulating treatment scheme and prognosis.
