Objective:To design a software to read and display CT and RT structure and draw a new contour without treatment planning system (TPS).Methods: In order to display the contour information drawn by doctors, the first step was to match CT images and RT structure then the same screen rendering of CT and RT structures could be applied. In order to add contour in RT structure obtaining the coordinates interactively, connecting coordinate points were the essential steps. Then a unique identity was given in the area of that contour to ensure its unique results. Results: The software successfully read and displayed CT and RT structures and drew a new contour without TPS.Conclusion: In this study, the software establishes a basis to improve the precision of the radiotherapy dose.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of three types of drainage in the treatment of malignant obstructive jaundice.Methods 84 patients with malignant obstructive jaundice were selected,40 cases were treated with bridge drainage,24 cases were undergone percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage(PTCD) and 20 cases were treated with Roux-En-Y anastomosis.The changes of total bilirubin and direct bilirubin were detected 1,3,7 and 14 days after operation.Results The total bilirubin and direct bilirubin after 1,3,7 and 14 days had significantly decreased compared with pre-treatment(P ＜0.05),the decline rates in bridge drainage group were faster than the other two groups (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The three types of drainage for treating malignant obstructive jaundice have exact effect,and the bridge drainage can reduce the bilirubin to lower levels more quickly than the other two methods.

Objective To summarize clinical experience on the diagnosis and management of pancreatic regional portal hypertension. Methods The clinical manifestations,diagnostic methods and therapeutic modalities of 40 cases of pancreatic regional portal hypertension were analyzed retrospectively.Results Male:female =26: 14.The average age was (40 ± 10)yrs.Among these patients,16 patients (40％) were accompanied by upper gastrointestinal bleeding and 20 patients (50％) by hypersplenism.There were 16 patients (40％) suffering from benign lesions and 6 patients (15％) from malignancy at pancreatic body and tail respectively,and 8 patients(20％ ) from severe necrotic pancreatitis accompanying pseudocyst and 10 patients (25％) from chronic pancreatitis. The average splenic venous pressure was (28.4±4.2) cm H2O(P ＜0.01 ).The average diameter and speed of splenic vein bloodflow by Doppler examination was ( 1.3 ± 0.2 ) cm ( P ＜ 0.01 ) and ( 9.3 ± 0.5 ) cm/s ( P ＜ 0.05 ).The follow-up rate was 100％.Splenectomy was effective for controlling gastrointestinal bleeding. Conclusions It is not difficult to diagnose pancreatic regional portal hypertension based on findings of US,CT and endoscopic examination,together with its clinical features. Therapy should be aimed at both regional portal hypertension and underlying diseases.

Objective To explore the clinical characteristics of roseola infantmn with febrile convulsions.Methods All cases with roseola infantum or with febrile convulsions were retrospectively collected who were confirmed during January 2005 to February 2008. There were 31 cases of roseola infantum with febrile convulsions. Their clinical features were compared with cases of roseola infantum without febrile convulsions and eases of other febrile convulsions,respectively, and further analyzed with literature. Results There were 17.1% (3 1 / 181 ) roseola infantum with febrile convulsions among febrile convulsions and 24.4% (31/127)among febrile convulsions less than 2 years;The incidence of roseola infantum with febrile convulsions was 15.7% (31/198) among roseola infantum. The median age of roseola infantum with febrile convulsions was less than that of other febrile convulsions. There were no significant differences in sex, age, maximum body temperature, duration of fever and day of rash onset between roseola infantum with and without febrile convulsions ( P > 0.05 ), but the frequency of family history of febrile convulsions was significantly higher in roseola infantum with febrile convulsions than in those without febrile convulsions ( P < O. 05). Conclusions Familial predisposition is a risk factor in roseola infantum with febrile convulsions. In most cases the prognosis of roseola infantum with febrile convulsions was good,but it can be associated with severe diseases of central nervous system. Roseola infantum should be considered when encountering children under the age of 1 year with a first febrile convulsion.

Tyrosine kinase receptors mediate many critical cellular functions that contribute to tumor progression and metastasis.Recepteur d'origine nantais(RON)belongs to a subfamily of receptor tyrosine kinases(RTK)with unique expression patterns and biological activities.RON is activated by a serum-derived growth factor macrophage stimulating protein(MSP),primarily expressed in cells of epithelial origin.RON activation induced cell transformation,growth,migration and matrix invasion.We review RON molecular structure,activation,and carcinogenic mechanism related.It will contribute to cancel treatment and to discuss RON expression in the tumor.

Objective To evaluate clinical value of tension-free hernia repair in inguinal hernia.Methods The clinical data of 181 patients with 188 inguinal hernia were treated with tension-flee hernia repair,Mesh plug-patch were used in the operations.The operative procedure,postoperative pain,patient ability recovery,complications and recurrence rate were studied.Results All cases operated successfully.The mean operation time was 50min.The postoperative complications were 6 cases of urinary retention and 3 cases of scrotal hydroceles.Local hematoma appeared in 5 cases.3 cases complained of foreign body feeling.The average postoperative stay was 7 days.The follow-up period ranged from 3 to 36 months and no recurrence was observed.Conclusions Tension-free hernia repair is a perfect surgical operation for the inguinal hernia.It has many advantages,such as simplicity,minimal invasion,less postoperative pain,rapid recovery,good recent therapeutic effect and lower recurrence.The operation type should be individulized.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP)combined with laparoscopic resection (LC) in the treatment of patients with cholecystic stone.Methods100 patients with cholecystic stone were randomly divided into observation group and control group.The patients in the control group (50 cases) received traditional open surgery,and the patients in observation group(50 cases) were given ERCP combined with LC.The effects of two groups were observed.ResultsThe operative time was (49.2 ± 8.5 ) min and intraoperative blood loss was(54.0 ± 12.2 )ml in the observation group.The operative time was (80.2 ± 15.7 )min and intraoperative blood loss was ( 114.5 ± 27.5 ) ml in control group.There were statistically significant differences between two groups(P ＜0.05 ).The hospital stay time and postoperative infection rate of the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group ( all P ＜ 0.05 ).ConclusionIt was a safe and effective method to treat patients with cholecystic stone by ERCP combined with LC,which had the advantages of less trauma,faster recovery,less hospitalization time and could reduce the financial burden on patients,thereby it was worthy of clinical application.

ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the therapeutic effect of gastroesophageal devascularization( GD),portasystemic shunt( PSS),devascularization plus portasystemic shunt ( GD + PSS) for the treatment of 4250 cirrhotic portal hypertension cases reported in Chinese literature. MethodsThe literatures about the effect of gastroesophageal devascularization,portasystemic shunt,devascularization plus portasystemic shunt on portal hypertension were collected from Wanfang databases, China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI) from 1980 to 2011.RevMan 4.2 and SPSS 13.0 were used for data analysis. ResultsIn this study 17 reports were enrolled into the meta-analysis.The results of the mta-analysis showed that long term survival rate in the group of GD plus PSS was higher than that in group of GD [OR=1.73,95％CI (1.23,2.44),P ＜0.01].That in group of PSS was similar with the group of GD [ OR =0.87,95 ％ CI (0.63,1.20),P =0.40 ].That of group GD plus PSS was similar with the group of PSS [ OR =1.73,95％ CI (0.95,3.13),P =0.07 ].For recurrent variceal bleeding rate,that in group of PSS was lower than that in the group of GD[ OR =0.46,95％ CI (0.35,0.61 ),P ＜0.01 ].That in the group of GD plus PSS was lower than that in the group of GD [ OR =0.25,95％ CI (0.18,0.35),P ＜ 0.01 ].The group of GD plus PSS was similar to that of group of PSS [ OR =0.72,95％ CI ( 0.40,1.29 ),P =0.27 ].Encephalopathy rate was higher in the group of PSS than the group of GD [ OR =3.57,95％ CI (2.43,5.23 ),P ＜0.01 ].That in group of GD plus PSS was lower than that in the group of PSS[ OR =0.37,95％ CI (0.20,0.69),P ＜0.01 ],while that in GD plus PSS was similar to the group of GD[ OR =1.58,95％ CI (1.02,2.43),P =0.04 ].ConclusionsThe only significant factor influencing the long term result in Chinese patients with portal hypertension is preoperative liver function.The three types of operation have different benefits and disadvantages.

High mobility group protein A1 ( HMGA1 ) are members of a superfamily of non-histone chromatin proteins,which exist widely in eukaryotic nuclei and are mainly involved in transcriptional regulation of gene expression.Recent researches show that almost all human malignant tumors have abnormal expression of HMGA1,which may have an important role in the development of cancer,but the exact mechanism is not clear yet.In cancer research,transfection system which constructed on the basis of HMGA1 will have potential value,and also could shed some light on the treatment of cancer.
