Synovial sarcoma is a rare tumour found in soft tissue; it is a mesenchymal spindle cell tumour that is not related to the synovial membrane. This tumour has a low incidence, and the most frequent place of occurrence is the lower extremities in young adults. Synovial sarcoma of the head and neck accounts for 3%-5% of sarcomas in this anatomical region. The tumor in the nasal cavity is less than 1%. The treatment of choice for synovial sarcoma of the head and neck is complete surgical excision of the tumour mass followed by adjuvant radiotherapy.

Objective To treat scalp lacerations by using the hair apposition technique (HAT) and to compare the HAT with standard suturing in a controlled prospective trial. Method Fifty patients with scalp lacerations were treated either by HAT or by standard suturing. Two groups were evaluated in consumed times for operation, pain sores, and complications. Results There were 30 HAT patients and 20 patients treated with suturing. The took shorter operation time consumed[(3.33 vs. (6.05 t = 4.85.P < 0.01], and HAT produced significantly lower pain score [(1.73vs. (3.20t = 4.01,P < 0.01]. There was a trend that more and more patients were willing to have HAT performed. Conclusions The advantages of HAT include a shorter time consumed for operation, less pain, satisfactory wound healing, and high acceptance by patients. HAT is acceptable for treating scalp lacerations in emergency room.

Objective To screen for the potential protein biomarkers in serum for the diagnosis of idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD) using proteomic fingerprint technology. Methods Proteomic fingerprint technology combining weak cation exchange (WCX) magnetic beads with MALDI-TOF-MS was used to identify and compare the serum proteins from 61 patients with idiopathic PD, 29 patients with other neurodegenerative diseases (OND) and 30 healthy blood donors. Model of biomarkers and proteomics patterns associated with PD was analyzed by Biomarker Patterns Software. The model also was validated by 40 newly recruited PD cases. Results A total of 17 discriminating M/Z peaks which were related to PD were identified ( nonparametric test, Z:-4.039--2.633, P<0.01 ). Five biomarkers with M/Z of 6121, 5234, 2961,4309 and 8170 respectively generated an excellent model of distinguishing between PD and healthy groups. The sensitivity was 98.4% and the specificity was 83.1%. Blind testing in 40 newly recruited cases demonstrated a sensitivity of 85.0% (17 of 20 PD) and a specificity of 70. 0% (14 of 20 controls). Conclusions Combination of WCX magnetic beads with MALDI-TOF-MS is a useful method in establishing proteomic patterns associated with PD. It also may be used to construct a diagnostic model with PD Biomarkers. Although this model of biomarkers fails to distinguish between PD and OND controls, it is able to differentiate PD from healthy controls.

Objective To investigate the effect of all-in-one nursing intervention on esophageal carcinoma patients with bad emotion and immune function. Methods From the October, 2012 to the October, 2013, 102 patients with radical operation of esophageal carcinoma were divided into all-in-one nursing intervention group (research group, 52cases) and routine nursing group (control group, 50 cases) according to the random number table method.Two groups of patients were evaluated before and after operation of anxiety and depression emotion scores, with the Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS) .At the same time, two groups of patients were detected the stress and immune index before and after the operation. Results Before operation, two groups of patients with anxiety, depression, stress reaction and immune index were not significantly different (P>0.05).After operation, the study group patients with anxiety and depression scores were significantly lower than those in the control group [(34.6+6.7) points vs. (44.8+7.5) points, (33.7+6.9) points vs. (40.6+7.3) points], the difference was statistically significant (t values were 7.234, 4.902, P<0.05). Eighth days after operation, patients in the control group FBG, CRP and Cor levels were significantly higher in the study group [(6.98±1.12)mmol/L vs.(6.09±0.85)mmol/L,(18.11±5.93) mg/L vs.(9.24±3.22)mg/L,(293.98±69.09)nmol/L vs.(221.97±67.94)nmol/L],the difference was statistically significant (t values were 4.532, 9.336, 5.307, P<0.05). Eighth days after operation, two groups of patients with IgA, IgM were higher than first days after operation [(2.41±0.46)g/L vs.(1.89±0.56)g/L,(2.51±0.58) g/L vs.(1.35±0.67)g/L and (2.36±0.53)g/L vs.(1.82±0.46)g/L, (2.34±0.62)g/L vs. (1.37±0.64) g/L], the difference was statistically significant (t values were 5.174, 9.439, 5.549, 7.850, P<0.05).The total number of patients blood lymphocytes (LYM) and cytokines (CD3, CD4, CD8, CD4/CD8) were significantly higher than the control group [(2.87±0.65)×109/L vs.(1.98±0.58)×109/L, 0.62±0.10 vs. 0.57±0.07, 0.41±0.08 vs. 0.35 ±0.08, 0.24 ±0.04 vs. 0.26 ±0.05, 2.06 ±0.44 vs. 1.65 ±0.46], the difference was statistically significant (t values were 7.286, 2.915, 6.942, 2.225, 4.601, P<0.05). Conclusion All-in-one nursing intervention can significantly improve the anxiety and depression in patients with esophageal cancer in bad mood, enhance the immune function of patients, conducive to the rehabilitation of patients.
