Objective To evaluate the relationship between CT perfusion imaging and clinicopathological features in gastric adenocarcinoma.Methods CT perfusion was performed in 31 cases of gastric cancer diagnosed by endoscopy and biopsy one week prior to operation.After an oral intake of 1000—1200 ml of water and an injection of hypotonic agent,perfusion scan was adopted in sixteen multi- slice spiral CT (MSCT) with 60 s of cine duration.Data were analyzed by a commercial software to cal- culate tumor blood flow (BF),blood volume (BV),mean pass time (MTT) and permeability surface (PS).Microvessl density (MVD) was evaluated by using immunohistochemical staining of surgical specimens with anti-CD34.All these findings were prospectively analyzed and correlated with the clinicopathological find- ings (histological grading,presence of lymph node metastasis,serous involvement,TNM staging and MVD). Results There was significant difference of PS value not only between patients with and without lymphatic in- volvement (P＜0.05),but also in different histological grade (P＜0.05) and TNM staging (P＞0.05). However BF,BV,MTT and MVD of gastric cancer revealed no significant correlation with the clinicopatholog- ical findings above (P＞0.05).Condusion The analysis of CT perfusion imaging in gastric cancer,especially PS value,might be helpful in predicting the prognosis.

In this paper, we discuss the meaning, advantages and methods of applying the point of care testing (POCT) and medical digital assistant (MDA) to primary healthcare services. We also introduce the development of the POCT and MDA based on the electronic health record(EHR) system.

Objective To introduce the experience and analyze the clinical outcome of applica- tion of reinforced bar-ring hybrid external fixator combined with limited internal fixation for complex frac- turcs of tibia plateau in patients.Methods From Aug.2002 to Feb.2005,21 patients with complex fractures of tibial plateau were treated with reinforced bar-ring hybrid external fixatar combined with lim- ited internal fixation.According to Schatzker classification,there were 13 patients with typeⅤfracture and 8 with typeⅥfracture.Voluntary and non-weight beating knee joint motion to partially weight bear- ing was taken one week after operation.Progressive loading was taken continuously until there was clinical evidence of fracture stability and then full weight bearing was done.Results The mean follow-up peri- od was 15.9 months (10-24 months).All the fractures got united and the mean union time was 4.2 months(3-8 months).All the injured knees could extend to less than 5 degrees and flex to more than 90 degrees after rehabilitation.Evaluated by Merchant score system for knee joint,81% of patients achieved excellent healing (7 cases) and good healing (10 cases).Conclusion Operation by using reinforced bar-ring hybrid external fixator combined with limited internal fixation can reduce complications and avoid stiffness of the knee joint.It is an effective method for complex fractures of tibial plateau.

The viral RNA was extracted from purified cymbidium mosa ic virus (CyMV) isolated from Dendrobium orchid cultivated in Hainan island. The gene of the movement protein (MP) was amplified by means of reverse transcripti on-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), and cloned into pGEM-T easy vector. Se quence analysis showed that the gene fragment contained 3 open reading frames (O RFs) which may be encoding 14 kD、12 kD and 10 kD peptides. The nucleotide seque nce of the cloned gene fragment shared 97.8% homology with the MP genes of CyMV isolated from orchids cultivated in Hawaii and Singapore.

Feedback for teaching refers to the mutual transmission and interaction of various information between teaching and learning in teaching process,and is an inevitable result and objective existence of teaching in which teachers and students participate.Effective feedback for teaching is characterized by timely,comprehensive and authentic.Teachers can continuously modify teaching per formance through the feedback of students;the feedback of teaching by students is reflected in examination performance,which really reflects the idea that teaching benefits teachers as well as students.Clinical comprehensive course of eight-year program students is an important bridge between basic medicine and clinical medicine,and the foundation of teaching clinical medicine.Feedback for teaching was applied in students of academic year 2011 from the Department of Surgery of Clinical College in Pekjing Union Medical College,and teaching approach was adjusted in time,contributing to good teaching effectiveness.
