Objective To investigate the expressions of ?-catenin(?-cat)and ?-catenin(?-cat)and their relation with development and prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).Methods Expressions of ?-cat and ?-cat were immunohistochemically studied in 43 specimens of NSCLC and 7 cases of normal lung tissues.Results Of the 43 NSCLC cases,the abnormal rate of ?-cat and ?-cat expression was 72.1% and 65.1%,respectively.Differentiation and lymph node involvement had a significantly positive correlation with abnormal expression of ?-cat or ?-cat(P

Objective To understand the clinical features and laboratory examination and diagnosis of Langerhas cell histio-cytosis (LCH) in newborns. Methods Retrospective analysis of the clinical data of a neonatal case of LCH was performed. Results A one-day-old girl was admitted with chief complaint of eating less, less crying and skin rash for one day. The unequal sized rash was on the head, limbs, trunk, toe and oral mucosa. The skin rashes were protruding from the skin and were partially broken and crusted. Biopsy of the skin tissue showed the expression of S-100 and CD1α, consistent with the diagnosis of LCH. Conclusions When new-borns have special rash after birth, LCH should be considered. To avoid misdiagnosis, skin biopsy should be performed.

Objectives To explore the clinical manifestations, treatment and prognosis of a case of blindness caused by nephrotic syndrome with cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST). Methods The clinical manifestations, diagnosis and treatment of a case of NS with CVST were analyzed. The latest domestic and foreign reseach progresses in treatment for CVST in children were reviewed. Results Epilepsy suddenly appeared with diplopia, binocular vision loss and blindness in anticoagulant therapy for the child with NS. Brain magnetic resonance venography (MRV) suggested CVST. MRV reexam-ined showed that the intracranial thrombosis was completely dissolved after urokinase thrombolysis for one month followed by ineffective heparin anticoagulation. At present, international standards of anticoagulant therapy have been adopted in the treatment for CVST patients. Coagulation function (e.g.APTT) and international standardization ratio were monitored in order to prevent bleeding. Conclusions It is better to perform neural imaging examination early in suspected CVST patients. Anti-coagulation and thrombolytic therapy should be given immediately once the risk of bleeding was excluded and used for 3-6 months.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the significance of CK19 mRNA monitoring in peripheral blood of breast cancer patients.MethodsPeripheral blood samples were collected from 137 breast cancer patients preoperatively,one day post-operation,7 days,1,3,6,12,18,and 24 months after operation.RTPCR was used to detect CK19 mRNA expression.The relationships were analyzed between CK19 mRNA expression and treatment result, between CK19 mRNA expression and clinicopathological parameters.ResultsThere was no significant difference between the level of CK19 mRNA as tested preoperatively,and 1,7 days postoperatively(P ＞ 0.05 ).From one month and thereafter,CK 19 mRNA decreased significantly when compared with that immediate perioperatives ( P ＜ 0.05 ). Postoperative peripheral CK19 mRNA expression increased in those found with recurrent or metastasized tumors ( P ＜ 0.01 ). CK19 mRNA expression does not correlate with patient's menstrual status,estrogen receptor expression,progesterone receptor expression,HER-2 expression and Ki67 proliferation expression (P ＞ 0.05 ). But there was statistically significant correlation between CK19 mRNA expression and tumour size,histology grading,pathological type,lymph node metastasis ( P ＜ 0.01 ).ConclusionsIn breast cancer patients peripheral blood CK19 mRNA expression is correlated with risk clinicopathological parameters, and increases in patients with postoperative recurrence and tumor metastasis.

Objective: To investigate the relationship of loss of P16 expression with biologlical behaviors and prognosis of gastrointestinal stromal tumors(GISTs). Methods: The expression of P16 protein and mRNA was detected in GISTs tissues by immunohistochemistry,Western blot and RT-PCR.The prognosis was evaluated through follow up. Results: The expression rates of P16 protein and mRNA in GISTs were 53.8%(21/39，Frozen tissue)，51.3%(20/39，Frozen tissues)and 51.4%(37/72，Paraffin-embedded tissues)，respectively.The expression of P16 was significantly different among GISTs of different aggressive risk(P<0.05).With the incease of aggressive risk，the expression of P16 was deceased.The expression of P16 was negtively correlated with Ki-67 and patient survival(P<0.05). Conclusion: The loss of P16 expression has a positive correlation with the infiltration and progression of GIST.Detection of P16 protein and mRNA is helpful for the evalutaion of biological behaviors and prognosis of gastrointestinal stromal tumors.

Objective To test the hypothese that metabolic syndrome is closely associated with inflammation, we compare the difference of inflammatory factors and von Willebrand factor between essential hypertensives and hypertensive patients with metabolic syndrome. Methods According to the new definition of metabolic syndrome by IDF 2005, one hundred thirty eight consecutive hospitalized essential hypertensives were catelogorized into EH+MS group, n=99 and EH alone group, n=39. Biochemistry assay, white blood cell (WBC) counts, serum high sensitive C reactive protein (hsCRP) and plasma von Willebrand factor (vWF) were measured. The relationship between hsCRP, vWF and MS were analysed. Results Waist circumference, body mass index, triglyceride, low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), WBC, serum hsCRP and plasma vWF were increased(P

OBJECTIVE To study the antibacterial activity of pazufloxacin in vitro against bacteria isolated from(patients) with respiratory and urinary tract infection,compared with levofloxacin,ciprofloxacin,cefuroxime and(cefotaxime) to provide guideline for clinical application.METHODS The infected bacteria were identified by the(fully) automatic VITEK system.The susceptibility test was determined by MIC method and K-B disk diffusion method respectively.RESULTS The sensitivity of most Gram-negative bacteria to pazufloxacin was basically the same to levofloxacin,cefotaxime, etc.However,the sensitivity of Pseudomonas and Acinetobacter to(pazufloxacin) was higher than to other four antibiotics;the sensitivity of Gram-positive cocci,particularly(Streptococcus) to(pazufloxacin) was obviously lower than cephalosporins and no better than other quinolones.(CONCLUSIONS) The antibacterial activity of pazufloxacin in vitro against the bacteria isolated from patients with(respiratory) and urinary tract infection is comparatively strong,especially in the urinary system.Pazufloxacin has an excellent broad-(spectrum) and strong antibacterial activity.However,the antibacterial activity against Gram-positive cocci is(expected) to promote.

OBJECTIVE To discuss the diagnosis and treatment of Burkholderia cepacia(BCE) pneumonia. METHODS The 31 cases of inpatients and outpatients in our hospital were analyzed from Jul 2005 to Dec 2007. RESULTS From them 11 cases were with community-acquired pneumonia and 20 cases with hospital-acquired pneumonia,the underlying diseases in 27 cases.Of these cases,19 cases were kidney transplant recipients,four cases with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease,seven cases with non-insulin dependent diabetes,three cases with cerebral vascular diseases,and two cases were with malignant tumors.All cases were diagnosed by bronchoscopy,bronchial lavage,and BCE positive in douche liquid.At last there were 24(77.4%) cases cured,2 cases discharged(6.5%) and 5 cases deceased(16.1%). CONCLUSIONS BCE is a multi-drug resistant bacteria.BCE pneumonia often appears severe.It appears non-specific clinical symptoms in early stage and higher mortality.It should be treated as soon as possible by using piperacillin /tazobactam-based combined anti-infection treatment.

The manuscript introduced the overview, training objectives, policy advantages, training process,curriculum, examination of the Australian College in Rural and Remote Medicine and further contrasted that with China's domestics.The authors held that Australia's training is better targeted due to its colleges tailored to this end;the training duration for general practitioners of rural and remote areas is longer,and the training schedule is reasonable;the curriculum design and training content are more targeted;and the homogeneous training is better achieved as its examination is run by the college in a standardized manner.The authors therefore hold that China should develop detailed regulations for general practitioners from rural and remote areas and explore the feasibility of setting up second-level disciplines institutes for internal medicine, surgery, gynecology and obstetrics, pediatrics and general at national and provincial level.
