Objective To study the correlation between dose-volummetrics and changes of pulmona- ry function tests(PFTs), and to study the ability of standard dose-volummetrics to predict these changes after radiotherapy. Methods Pulmonary function was measured in 39 patients with inoperable lung cancer one week before and 2-4 months after radiotherapy. The pulmonary function parameters were the forced vital ca- pacity(FVC), forced expiratory volume in ls (FEV 1.0) and diffusion capacity of carbon monoxide(DL- CO). Dose-volumrnetrics were V_(10), V_(15), V_(20), V_(25), V_(30), V_(35), V_(40), CTV_(100), CTV_(95), CTV_(90), CTV_(80), lung D_(mean), V_(eff) and NTCP. Pearson and line regression analysis was performed to determine whether the correlation exis- ted between the metrics and the changes of PFTs. Results No correlation was found between the dose- volummetrics and the changes in PFTs. Excluding patients(n=15) with pretreatment atelectasis, signifi- cant correlation was found between the dose-volummetrics (V_(20), V_(25), V_(30), V_(35), V_(40), GTV, V_(eff) and D_(mean)) and the PFTs changes(r=0.469-0.695, P≤0.05). Therefore, the re-expansion may have jesperdized the proper data to the present record. Multivariate analysis showed that V_(30) was the risk factor to affect the chan- ges of FEV 1.0 and DLCO(P=0.046、0.041). The pulmonary function of patients with V_(30)≥18% was worse than patients with V_(30)

0.05). In both A and B groups the number of CD_3~+, CD_4~+, CD_8~+ T cells and NK was signficantly higher after treatment than before treatment(P0.05). The amount of CD_3~+,CD_4~+ T cells and NK was obivously lower after treatment than before treatment in C group, and CD_8~+ T cells amount significantly increased after treatment compared with before treatment(P

BACKGROUND: Ginsenoside Rb1 has been extensively used in the protection and treatment of heart, encephalon, lung, kidney and liver damage. However, its application in skin flap is rare.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of intraperitoneal injection of ginsenoside Rb1 on the survival of the dorsal random-pattern skin flap with large length-to-width ratio in rats.METHODS: Healthy adult SD rats were randomly divided into experimental and control groups. A caudally based dorsal random pattern skin flap, 80 mmx20 mm (length: width = 4:1), was symmetrically made. Ginsenoside Rb1 (2 mg/kg) was intraperitoneally injected into the experimental group rats, and the same volume of normal saline was injected into the control group. Malonyl dialdehyde (MDA) and nitric oxide (NO) level of the flaps were tested 1 day after operation; the amount of viable tissues of the flaps were examined by planimetry 10 days after operation. Specimens from the proximal, middle and distal flaps were harvested for HE staining to examine the microstructure.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: At the first day after operation, NO level was higher in the experimental group than the control group (P< 0.01), while MDA level was lower than the control group (P< 0.01). At the 10th day after operation, the survival rate of the flap was significantly greater in the experimental group than the control group (P < 0.001). Histological observation showed that compared with the control group, the edema and inflammatory cells infiltration were less, while the fiber hyperplasia and the microvascular growth were more obvious in the experimental group. Results show that intraperitoneal injection of ginsenoside Rb1 can enhance the blood supply of the flaps and improve the survival of the random-pattern skin flaps with large length-to-width ratio in rats. This may involve its effects of improving NO activity, decreasing lipid peroxidation, and promoting angiogenesis of skin flaps.

38 patients with dentition defect in our hospital for magnetic attachment dental treatment were analyzed. At the same time,34 cases of patients with dentition defects were ,being treated with conventional prosthodontics, selected to compare the stability of overdentures and masticatory function with magnetic attachment. The stability of overdentures and masticatory function after restored with magnetic attachment was significantly higher than before(P< 0. 01),while there was no difference after 4 weeks. Cementation language,comfort and appearance satisfaction after 4 weeks were significantly higher than before(P < 0. 05). The stability of overdentures,masticatory function, cementation language,comfort and appearance satisfaction after restored with magnetic attachment was significantly higher than conventional prosthodontics(P < 0. 05). It finally indicated that magnetic attachment had the advanta-ges of comfort,convenience and good effect. The stability of overdentures,masticatory function and application sat-isfaction was superior to conventional prosthodontics,and it had an application prospect.

Objective To observe the effect of partial body weight support training (PBWST) on walking ability of cerebral palsy (CP) children with spasticity diplegia.Methods 60 CP children with spasticity dilegia were randomly divided into the PBWST group and control group with 30 cases in each group. All cases were treated by traditional physical treatment, but those of the PBWST group were added with PBWST. The changes of walking ability and endurance of all cases before and after treatment were observed.Results After treatment, the walking ability and endurance of the cases in two groups improved significantly, but the effect of the PBWST group was obviously superior to the control group ( P<0.05), especially in walking endurance ( P<0.001).Conclusion PBWST can improve the walking ability of CP children with spasticity diplegia and already having walking ability.

Objective To evaluate the usefulness of diffusion-weighted MR combined with routine T2 WI in finding the possible residual foci in uterine cervical cancers after radical chemo-radiation therapy.Methods This was a retrospective study including 25 consecutive cervical cancer patients who received hysterectomy after radical chemo-radiation therapy.All of them underwent MR examinations post-chemoradiation and just before operation.Images of T2 WI alone and those of T2 WI combining DWI were evaluated respectively by 2 senior radiologists,in order to decide whether there were residual tumors.ADC values were also measured.Taking the post-operation pathological results as the gold standard,the accuracies,sensitivities and specificities of T2 WI alone,T2 WI combining DWI,and ADC values were all calculated.Results In those 25 patients,9 were found with foci of residual cancer in operative pathology,while no cancer cells were found in the other 1 6 patients.The accuracy,sensitivity and specificity in finding the positive residual cancer using T2 WI alone were 56.0%,77.8% and 43.8%,comparing with 72.0%,66.7% and 75.0% in T2 WI combining DWI.The accuracy and specificity increased with statistical significance after combining DWI (P =0.01 6 for accuracy,P =0.031 for specificity),while the sensitivity decreased but did not reach statistically significant level (P =0.099).No difference in ADC values was found.Conclusion DWI can be used as a supplementary sequence in finding the existence of residual tumors of cervical cancer after radical chemo-radiation therapy.Routine T2 WI combing DWI increased the specificity and accuracy,but still facing the risk of decreasing sensitivity.

Objective To study the relationship between long-term high-salt water and the morbidity mechanism of chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG), The expression of HSP60 and ras protein were detected in the gastric mucosa of CAG rates induced by high-salt water.Methods The atrophic gastritis rat model was made by high-salt-hot water perfusion and the ultrastructure of gastric mucosa was observed by Laser Scanning ConfocaI Microscopy. Results There was no expression in gastric mucosa in normal group. The expression of HSP60 and ras was observed in the cell plasm of rats at 12 weeks. The higher expression was observed in the rats at 24, 32 and 65 weeks. Using laser scanning confocaI microscopy and immunofluorescence technique had observed coexistence of HSP60 and ras.Conclusion Long time high-salt-hot water can induce CAG and increasing the expression of HSP60 and ras. HSP60 and ras play an important role in the formation of atrophic gastritis.

Objective: To investigate the inhibitory effect of soluble KDR(sKDR) and its antibody on endotheliocyte(EC) proliferation.Methods: The binding of sKDR with VEGF was detected by ELISA. The KDR262 antiserum was prepared from rabbit and the specificity was defined by Western blot. The inhibition of EC proliferation was analyzed by 3H-TdR up-take, MTT and cell counter. Results: The sKDR could bind to VEGF165 specially, the ability was enhanced by heparin. The specific binding of KDR262 antiserum to KDR was also detected. The inhibitory rate of sKDR(10,2,0 4?g/ml) on EC proliferation was 56%,44%,32% respectively. The inhibitory rate of KDR262 antiserum (1∶50,1∶200,1∶800) was 70%, 56%,43% respectively. The cell counter also showed that EC proliferation was inhibited significantly in sKDR group and KDR262 antibody group, vs VEGF165 group, GST group and PBS group. The inhibitory effect was characterized by concentration-dependent and was higher in KDR262 antibody group than that in sKDR group. Conclusion: sKDR expressed by E.coli and its antibody had significant inhibitory influence on EC proliferation.
