Functional insulinoma accounts for 85% of insulinoma, and it is evenly distributed in the head, body and tail of the pancreas. The main clinical manifestation of patients with functional insulinoma is endocrine disorder, and 92% of them presented with neurological symptoms. Preoperative localization of functional insulinoma is difficult because of the small size of the tumor. A 31-year-old male patient with the chief complaint of paroxysmal dizziness and confusion was admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical College on May 3,2010. The patient was preliminarily diagnosed with functional insulinoma by detecting the levels of fasting blood glucose,serum insulin and fasting serum C-peptide, as well as the presence of Whipple's triad. Ultrasonography and enhanced computed tomography demonstrated that a well-defined tumor of 13.0 mm ×13.0 mm in size was located in the pancreatic uncinate process.On May 27, 2010, the patient received surgical resection of the tumor, and histological examination of the resected specimen confirmed insulinoma.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and indications of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) by analyzing the early gastric cancer cases.Methods All the pathological materials of radical gastric resections in Huashan hospital from 2007 to 2011 were retrieved and the EGC cases were selected.All the cases in EGC group which met the extended ESD criteria were reviewed.Extended ESD criteria were cited from Treatment guidelines for gastric cancer in Japan edited by JGCA in 2001.The risk factors relevant with regional metastasis,such as invasive depth and differentiation degrees,were also analysed.Results In the recent five years,there were 1159 cases of gastric cancer undergoing radical gastrectomy in Huashan hospital including 210 EGC.According to the extended criteria of JGCA,151 cases could be candidates for ESD while 126 cases could be candidates for ESD according to the typical criteria for ESD.The local metastases of lymphatic or vascular involvement for mucosa cancer,muscularis mucosae cancer,sm1 and sm2 cancer were 6.75％,15.00％,23.25％,and 39.62％ respectively (P ＜0.05).Twenty-five cases had local metastases that met the extended criteria for ESD.Within the 210 EGC cases,the local metastases of differentiated type and undifferentiated type were 13.95％ and 47.37％ respectively (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Most EGC cases undergoing radical gastrectomy can be cured by ESD.Its metastases are highly correlated with invasion depth and differentiation,so indications of ESD should be assessed.

Aim To investigate Jianpi Qinghua Chinese herbal compound( JQCC) on the expressions of the rel-evant proteins of TLR4 and its downstream MyD88-de-pendent pathways, and on the inflammatory factor TNF-α in the animal model of chronic atrophic gastritis ( CAG) in rats, so as to discuss the molecular mecha-nism of JQCC in the treatment of CAG. Methods 53 Wistar rats were randomly divided into the blank con-trol group(n=8) and the CAG model group(n=45), and the animal model of CAG in rats was replicated by the “ammonia + sodium deoxycholic acid + ethanol”method. After the successful modeling was confirmed, the rest of the 40 CAG rats in the CAG model group were divided into the model group, the vitacoenzyme-tablet group, the low dose of JQCC group, the medium dose of JQCC group, the high dose of JQCC group ( each group n =8 ) . The experimental animals of all the groups were given intragastric administration of medication continuously for 30 days. Then the patho-logical histological changes were observed by HE stai-ning. The protein expressions of TLR4, MyD88, NF-КB and COX-2 were tested by Western-blot assay. And the serum TNF-α level was measured by ELISA. Results The protein expressions of TLR4 , MyD88 , NF-КB and COX-2 and the serum TNF-α level in the rats in the model group were increased evidently ( P<0. 01). Compared with the model group, the gastric mucosa lesions were improved in the low dose of JQCC group, the medium dose of JQCC group, the high dose of JQCC group, together with significant decreases of the protein expressions of TLR4 , MyD88 , NF-κB and COX-2 and the serum TNF-α level ( P <0. 05 or P <0. 01 ) . Conclusion JQCC could effectively improve the pathological and histological changes in the gastric mucosa in CAG rats, and the therapeutic mechanism might be related to the expressions of the relevant pro-teins of TLR4-MyD88-dependent pathways and the ex-pressions of anti-inflammatory cytokines.

Objective To discuss the clinical efficacy of compound gastritis mixture (CGM) in treating precancerous lesions of gastric carcinoma (PLGC).Methods Totally 85 PLGC patients were randomly divided into treatment group and control group. The treatment group took CGM and the control group took Vitacoenzyme tablets. One therapeutic course was three months, and the treatment lasted for two courses. The clinical symptoms, electronic gastroscopy presentation, and pathological tissues before and after treatment were observed, the clinical efficacy was evaluated.Results There was statistical significance in TCM syndrome between the two groups (P<0.05), and the effective rate in the treatment group was more obvious than that in the control group (P<0.01). The symptoms of the two groups were significantly improved (P<0.05,P<0.01), but the improvements of the main symptoms in the treatment group were superior to those in the control group (P<0.05,P<0.01). The total effective rate of electronic gastroscopy presentation was 80.0% (36/45) in the treatment group, which was better than that of the control group (P<0.05). Pathological curative effects of chronic atrophic gastritis, intestinal metaplasia, and dysplasia in the treatment group were also better than those in the control group (P<0.05).Conclusion CGM has definite clinical efficacy in treating PLGC.

Objective To evaluate quantitatively the spasticity of elbow flexor biceps in stroke patients using integrated EMG (IEMG),and to correlate the IEMG with Ashworth scale.Methods The IEMG data was recorded from the biceps while passively stretch the elbow joint of a group of 90 subjects,and was correlated with the varying levels of Ashworth category(20 cases with grade 0,6 cases gradeⅠ,16 cases gradeⅠ~+,20 cases gradeⅡ,and 18 ca- ses gradeⅢ).Results The IEMG data were positively correlated with simultaneous Ashworth scale categories.The range of IEMG value corresponding to the Ashworth category is as follows:1.3～12.1 (6.7?5.4)?V?s vs Ash- worth grade 0;4.6～12.3 (8.5?3.9)?V?s vs Ashworth gradeⅠ.15.3～28.4(21.8?6.6)?V?s vs Ashworth gradeⅠ~+;37.2～68.9 (53.1?15.6)?V?s vs Ashworth gradeⅡ;82.3～144.1 (113.2?30.9)?V?s vs Ash- worth gradeⅢ.Conclusion The IEMG value can be used to quantify the spasticity of elbow flexor in stroke pa- tients.

One hundred and seventy-two strains of endophytic fungi were isolated from Taxus mairei,Cephalotaxus fortunei and Torreya grandis cv.merrillia.The result of the antifungal assay shows that ninety strains of the fungi have antagonism against one or more botanical pathogenic fungi,such as Neurospora sp.,Trichoderma sp.,Fusarium sp.etc.The percentage of antifungal strains to tested strains are as follows:40% Cephalotaxus fortunei,54.2% Taxus mairei,57.1% Torreya grandis cv.merrillia.Thirty-five strains have high antifungal activities,and their inhibition zone diameter is at least 15mm.The active endophytic fungi were identified as 18 genera,most of which belong to Paecilomyces and Fusarium etc.

Objective To investigate the factors affecting the prognosis of coma patients with cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST). Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 30 coma patients with CVST, admitted to our hospital from February 2001 to February 2010, including patients in coma on admission and patients turned to be in the different degrees' coma after admission within 6 h. Results Twelve patients had no increased intracranial pressure, cerebral venous sinus thrombosis or related symptoms with cerebral vascular, 8 patients died and 2 were seriously disable; 8suffered from sequel of different degrees ofhemiplegia or mental language barriers. The CVST patients associated with infection in central nervous system, cancer, cerebral deep venous thrombosis, epilepsy and intracranial hemorrhage were with poor prognosis, enjoying a possibility of mortality and severe disability up to 50％. Conclusion Coma patients with CVST were with poor prognosis and high mortality; early diagnosis and appropriate treatment might help to improve the prognosis.
