Despite detailed examinations have been performed,the etiology in about one third of ischemic strokes remain uncertain,which are called cryptogenic ischemic strokes.In the recent 2 decades,it has been found that patent foramen ovale(PFO)is closely associated with these cryptogenic strokes,and a roamber of profound studies have been performed subsequently,and a lot of new conceptions have been put forward.INs article reviews advances in research on the relationship between PFO and iscbemic stroke.influencing factors of PFO leading to ischemic stroke,as well as the diagnosis and treatment of PFO.

Objective:To analysis the clinical characteristics of pulmonary hypertension (PH) complicating pregnancy, then to explore the delivery time and the monitodng as well as the treatment during perinatal peri-od.Methods:The data of 10 cases with PH treated in our hospital from June 2005 to January 2009 were retro-spectively analyzed.Reaults:1 case was primary pulmonary hypertension(PPH) ; 9 cases were secondary PH (SPH), in which 4 cases were rheumatic heart disease and 5 cases were congenital heart diseases.3 cases were slight PH,6 cases were moderate PH, and 1 were severe group.4 cases NYHA class were Ⅰ～Ⅱ and 6 cases NYHA class were Ⅲ～Ⅳ.4 cases were term delivery,5 cases were premature delivery, and 1 got artifi-cial abortion.8 cases were cesarean section, and 1 was vaginal delivery.2 cases were very low birth weight infants, 1 infant was death and 1 mother was death.Conclusions:The patient of PPH should avoid concei-ving.For SPH patients whether to conceive depends on cardiac function, the level of pulmonary arterial pres-sure and should better get pregnancy after surgery or medication.It should terminate pregnancy in the first tri-mester for moderate or severe patients.Cesarean section is more suitable for those in the second or third tri-mester.The prognosis of the mother and neonate depends on several factors.

Objective To study the differences of CXCR7 expression between in osteosarcoma tissues and normal peri-osteosarcoma tissues, and observe the effect on cell proliferation and inflammatory cytokine PGE2 secretion in MG63 cells when it had been transfected with pEGFP-Adv-CXCR7 vector. Methods CXCR7 expression in osteosarcoma tissues, cells and normal peri-osteosarcoma tissues detected by RT-qPCR. The CXCR7 mRNA expression, cell proliferation and PGE2 secretion of MG63 cells after transfected with pEGFP-Adv-CXCR7 expression vector were evaluated by RT-qPCR, MTT and ELISA, respectively. Results The expression rate and quality of CXCR7 mRNA in osteosarcoma tissue were 93.80% and (2. 221 ±0. 112), which significantly higher than those of normal peri-osteosarcoma tissues 45.71% and (0. 3448 ±0.098). Low expression of CXCR7 in MG63 cells was also observed. The proliferation and PGE2 secretion of MG63 cells were significantly increased at the time point of 48, 72 and 96h after pEGFPAdv-CXCR7 expression vector transfected into MG63 cells ( P < 0. 05). Conclusion The expression of CXCR7 mRNA in osteosarcoma tissues were significantly higher than normal peri-osteosarcoma tissues. CXCR7 high expression may have a negative effect on the progress of osteosarcoma.

Angiogenesis is an important self-repair and remodeling mechanism after cerebral ischemia. It plays pivotal roles in promoting local blood circulation, protecting neurons and improving neurological function after cerebral ischemia. A variety of molecules and signal transduction pathways involved in the regulation of the process, including angiogenin, growth factors, matrix metalloproteinases, tissue kallikrein and anti-angiogenic proteins. This article reviews the roles of these molecules and signal transduction pathways in angiogenesis after cerebral ischemia.

Objective To observe the effect of triplex surgical treatment, including rectal mucosa ligation,Xiaozhiling injection,encircing fighting surgery of the anus ring,on complete rectum prolapse. Methods From February 2007 to February 2010,fifteen cases with complete rectum prolapse were enrolled into this study and accepted triplex surgical treatment All patients were followed up for 1-4 years. Results The curative rate of the triplex surgical treatment was 100% with no serious complications. Conclusion Triplex surgical treatment was a simple, effective and reliable method in treating complete rectum prolapse, with less pain,fewer complications and quicker recovery.

Objective:To explore the significance of multiple detector spiral CT multi-phase enhanced scan in differentiating liver tumors.Methods: A total of 141 patients, during from March 2011 to May 2015 in our hospital, pathologically diagnosed as liver tumors were selected to undergo multiple detector spiral CT multi-phase enhanced scan. The different performances and results in CT plain and enhanced scan for diagnosing liver cancer were observed and the sensitivity of CT multi-phase enhanced scan was analyzed.Results: 93 cases were found in CT plain scan; 141 cases were found in the arterial phase, 112 cases were found in portal venous phase and 108 cases were found in extension period in CT multi-phase enhanced scan. The lesion detection rate of CT plain scan was significantly lower than whichever of CT multi-phase enhanced scan(P<0.05); under CT multi-phase enhanced scan, the majority of lesions were typical imaging and could be diagnosed. Using CT multi-phase enhanced scan, the sensitivity of hemangiomas was 88.9%, abscess was 71.4%, focal nodular hyperplasia was 83.3%, primary liver cancer was 81.6%, and liver metastases was 97.8%; the total accuracy was 88.7%.Conclusion: The multiple detector spiral CT multi-phase enhanced scan can accurately identify liver tumor lesion stages, and it can contribute to further clinical treatment.

Objective To investigate whether the skin-derived neural stem cells inducted by the culture could survive,differentiate and migrate in the lesioned site of rat spinal cord.Methods The skin of new born rat trans-gene of green fluorescence protein(GFP) was applied to be dissociated into cells,cultured and inducted to proliferate in vitro.Skin-derived neural stem cells were identified by immunocytochemistry staining.Then,skin-derived neural stem cells inducted by the culture were transplanted into the lesioned site of rat spinal cord hemisection.Thirty days and sixty days after the operation,the survival,migration and differentiation of transplanted cells were observed by immunocytochemistry staining. Results Ten days at cultured skin-dissociated cells,many cell-spheres had been formed by the proliferation of suspensive growing cells.These cell-spheres showed nestin positive staining of immunocytochemistry.It suggestes that the cell-spheres are neurospheres.In vivo,many transplanted skin-derived neural stem cells with GFP were observed in the lesioned area of spinal cord.Some transplanted cells migrated into host spinal cord tissue far away from the lesioned area.Some transplanted surviving cells showed nestin,MAP2 and GFAP positive staining of immunocytochemistry separately.Conclusion Skin-derived neural stem cells inducted by the culture may survive,migrate and differentiate into neuron-like cells and astrocyte-like cells in injured spinal cord of rat.

OBJECTIVE:To explore the effectiveness and safety of probucol combined with rosuvastatin in the treatment of vascu-lar dementia(VD). METHODS:In retrospective study,clinical information of 88 VD patients selected from neurology department of our hospital during May 2013-Feb. 2015 were divided into observation group and control group according to therapy plan,with 44 cas-es in each group. Both groups received conventional treatments such as controlling blood pressure and blood glucose,anticoagulation. Control group was additionally given Rosuvastatin calcium tablets orally 20 mg,at bedtime;observation group was additionally given Probucol tablet 0.5 g,bid,after meal,on the basis of control group. Both groups received treatment for consecutive 3 months. MMSE and ADL score were compared between 2 groups before and after treatment as well as the levels of TC,TG,LDL-C,HDL-C,CRP, TNF-α,IL-6,IL-1β,SOD and MDA. The occurrence of ADR was also observed. RESULTS:Before treatment,there was no statisti-cal significance in above indexes between 2 groups(P>0.05). Compared to before treatment,MMSE and ALD score,serum SOD lev-el of 2 groups were increased significantly,while serum levels of TC,TG,LDL-C,CRP,TNF-α,IL-6,IL-1βand MDA were de-creased significantly after treatment,with statistical significance(P<0.05). Above indexes of observation group were significantly bet-ter than those of control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in HDL-C level between 2 groups before and after treatment (P>0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups(P>0.05).CONCLUSIONS:Probucol combined with rosuvastatin is better than rosuvastatin alone in reducing blood lipid,serum inflamma-tory factors and oxidant stress indexes levels,improving cognitive function and quality of life with good safety.
