The expression of C-myc, K-ras and H-ras oncoproteins in lymphocytesand monocytes, and NK subsets were studied in 21 patients with Behcet's syndrome (BS)and 40 healthy individuals. CD16~+,57~- cells of NK from BS patients were much decreasedwhen compared to the control. The positive percentages of three kinds of oncoprotein in BS lymphocytes and C-myc and K-ras oncoproteins in BS monocytes were significantly higher thanthat of the control. Positive correlations were found not only between C-myc expression oflymphocytes and serum ?-globulin%, IgM and IgG levels in BS, but also between C-mycexpression of monocytes and ESR. Expression of K-and H-ras oncoproteins in lympho-cytes and monocytes from BS patients were found to be negatively correlated with serumIgA level. Negative correlation was also found between C-myc expression in monocytesand CD16~+,57~- subset of NK. The significance of these results and the possible correlationsbetween BS and autoimmunity were discussed. It was suggeted that autoimmunity mightbe an important mechanism underlying BS.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the tinnitus' prevalence in Healthy check-up population in Dalian City. METHODS 1748 cases (male 806, female 942) were chosen from the Physical Examination Center of our hospital from February 1st, 2015 to April 1st, 2015, the tinnitus questionnaire was performed. For the cases with the tinnitus symptoms, the characteristics of tinnitus were further inquired, including the course of tinnitus, seizure frequency, the duration of tinnitus, pulsatile or persistent, unilateral or bilateral. RESULTS The total prevalence of tinnitus is 32.4%(566/1748), the prevalence of persistent tinnitus is 18.3%(320/1748), and the transient tinnitus is 14.1%(246/1748); The prevalence of tinnitus in female are 36.4%(343/942), 20.0%(188/942) and 16.5%(155/942) in turn, which are higher than that of the male 27.7%(223/806), P<0.01; 16.4%(132/806), P =0.054, and 11.3%(91/806), P<0.01. Both the total and persistent tinnitus prevalence increase with age(P<0.01), but the transient tinnitus doesn't increase with age. The prevalence of objective and subjective tinnitus are 1.3%(6.9% out of total prevalence of tinnitus), and 17.0%(93.1% out of total prevalence of tinnitus), respectively. The rate of bilateral tinnitus is 78.1% out of total tinnitus, and rate of unilateral tinnitus is 21.9%(right 11.6%, left 10.3%). In addition, the rates of acute tinnitus, subacute tinnitus, and chronic tinnitus are 4.4%, 3.8%, and 91.9% out of total, respectively. Otherwise, the rates of sleep disorders and hearing loss complaining accounted for 31.9% and 14.1% respectively. CONCLUSION The prevalence of tinnitus is high in healthy check-up population of Dalian, the total prevalence of tinnitus is 32.4%, mainly bilateral,chronic and subjective.

Objective To study the therapeutic effect of diltiazem and felodipine in treatment of hypertension after renal transplantation.Methods Sixty patients with hypertension after renal transplantation who were treated with tacrolimus as basic immunosuppressive therapy were divided into two groups by random digits table method with 30 cases each.The diltiazem group took diltiazem 90 mg orally once a day.The felodipine group received felodipine 2.5 mg orally twice a day.The drug dosages were adjusted according to the level of blood pressure.The patients were followed up for 1 year.The artery pressure,concentration-to-dose ratio of tacrolimus and renal function was detected and compared.Results Blood pressure was significantly decreased in both groups after 1 year treatment.Blood pressure was found to be significantly lowered from (153.6± 7.5)/ (97.7 ±6.7) mm Hg (1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa) to (119.1 ± 26.4)/ (72.6± 19.3) mm Hgin felodipine group; and from (152.0 ± 7.6)/(95.4 ± 6.9) mm Hg to (120.3 ± 25.5)/(73.2 ± 22.5) mm Hg in diltiazem group.There was no significant difference in blood pressure before and after treatment between two groups (P ＞ 0.05).The concentration-to-dose ratio of tacrolimus was increased after treatment in diltiazem group[(173.2 ± 59.3) g/L vs.(119.3 ± 78.3) g/L] (P ＜ 0.05),but there was no significant difference before and after treatment in felodipine group (P ＞ 0.05).The serum creatinine had no significant difference in two groups (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Diltiazem and felodipine can be used safely and effectively in the treatment of hypertension after renal transplantation,and diltiazem can lower the dose of tacrolimus.

Objective To explore the efficacy of liver retransplantation for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients with or without HCC recurrence.Method 131 cases of retransplantation performed between 2003 and 2012 were analyzed retrospectively.Their first and second liver transplantations were both performed in our hospital.Diagnoses of their primary diseases before transplantations were confirmed pathologically after the first transplantation.Patients were divided into two groups in terms of benign causes and HCC.Results Sixty cases were fallen into benign disease group and 65 cases into HCC group.The proportions of main causes of retransplantation were similar between two groups.The graft survival rate of early retransplantation (retransplantation performed within 30 days after the first transplantation) and late retransplantation (retransplantation performed beyond 30 days after the first transplantation) was calculated and compared respectively due a great difference in survival rate between the two phrases.The deaths of HCC patients with HCC recurrence before retransplantation were more than those without HCC recurrence (P＜0.01) and benign disease group.The 5-year cumulated survival rate was close between HCC patients without recurrence before retransplantation (51.0％) and benign disease group (51.8％).Conclusion The retransplantation after HCC recurrence has an unacceptable prognosis.The survival rate was similar between patients without HCC recurrence and patients with benign diseases.HCC patients without recurrence should not be restrained from retransplantation just for the HCC history.

Purpose: To explore the therapeutic method for lameness caused by lumbar spinal stenosis. Methods: 28 cases of the patients with lameness were treated by puncturing Dachangshu (BL 25), Weizhong (BL 40), Chengshan (BL 57) and Kunlun (BL 60) and simultaneously another 26 cases were treated with routine method for control study. Results:After the treatments for four weeks, the scores of the symptoms in the two groups were remarkably elevated. In the acupuncture treatment, the results showed remarkable effect in 4 cases, effect in 21 cases. In the routine treatment, the results showed remarkable effect in 4 cases and effect in 8 cases. Conclusion: acupuncture treatment is better than the routine conventional treatment for lameness caused by lumbar spinal stenosis.

Objective:To investigate the effectiveness of heart rate deceleration capacity (DC) measurement in predicting the car-diotoxicity of malignant tumor patients treated with epirubicin-based chemotherapy. Methods:The clinical medical records, including CK-MB and cTnI levels and dynamic electrocardiogram (ECG) parameters before and after each chemotherapy cycle, of 140 patients treated with epirubicin-based chemotherapy were analyzed. Patients were divided into the DC>4.5 ms group and the DC≤4.5 ms group based on the calculated DC values. The CK-MB and cTnI levels and the dynamic ECG parameters of the two groups were compared af-ter two and four cycles of chemotherapy. Results:Patients in the two groups exhibited no statistically significant difference in their rele-vant clinical and pathological data before receiving chemotherapy (P>0.05). However, after four cycles of chemotherapy, the DC≤4.5 ms group showed a significantly greater increase in serum CK-MB and cTnI concentrations over the pre-chemotherapy levels compared with the DC>4.5 ms group. After two and four cycles of chemotherapy, the DC≤4.5 ms group also exhibited a significantly greater in-crease in mean heart rate (beats/min) and supraventricular and ventricular arrhythmia counts (times/24 h) over the pre-chemotherapy values compared with the DC>4.5 ms group (P<0.05). After four cycles of chemotherapy, 23 cases showed abnormally elevated cTnI levels in the DC≤4.5 ms group. In this group, patients with elevated cTnI level exhibited no statistically significant difference in CK-MB and cTnI concentrations, mean heart rates, and supraventricular and ventricular arrhythmia counts compared with those with nor-mal cTnI level before chemotherapy (P>0.05). However, the DC values of patients with elevated cTnI were significantly lower than those with normal cTnI level (P<0.05). Conclusion:The risk of epirubicin-induced cardiotoxicity increased with decrease in DC value. The DC test was shown to be an effective predictor of the risk of epirubicin-induced cardiotoxicity.

Objective To explore the influence on isthmic spondylolisthesis (IS) from lumbar vertebras facet joint orientation (FJO) variation. Methods The lumbar vertebras of 60 patients scanned by 16-slices spiral CT were collected, 30 cases with IS was defined as isthmic group;30 cases with normal lumbar vertebras was defined as control group, the FJO at L3-4, L4-5 and L5-S1 were measured in two groups. The difference between two groups were compared at three levels, the difference between both sides of the facet joint orientation also was compared;the measured data and the data of 60 patients from foreign literature were compared at three levels. Results The FJO in isthmic group were (47.9±6.3)° ,(37.5±7.3)° , (37.9±7.7)° at the right of L3-4, L4-5, L5-S1 levels respectively,the FJO in control group were (53.1 ± 7.3)° , (40.5±6.3)° , (38.5±7.3)° respectively, the FJO in isthmic group were (48.1±6.0)° , (37.9 ± 7.4)° , (37.6 ± 7.6)° at the left of L3-4, L4-5, L5-S1 levels respectively, the FJO in control group were (52.3 ± 7.6)° , (41.6 ± 6.0)° , (38.2 ± 7.2)° respectively. The significant difference was found at L3-4 and L4-5 levels (P < 0.05), the orientation was similar at L5-S1 level (P > 0.05). The difference between the both sides FJO of lumbar vertebras was not found at L3-4,L4-5 and L5-S1 levels (P >0.05). The same as the measured data and the corresponding data from foreign literature(P > 0.05 ). Conclusions It seems possible that the coronal FJO may be the phenotypic representation of the familial etiology of IS. It is helpful for the measurement of lumbar vertebras FJO to find IS early,it is important to reduce and release the IS.
