ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the clinical significance of soluble intercellular adhesion molecule‐1 and inflammatory factors (CRP ,IL‐17) in elderly patients with colorectal carcinoma .Methods The expression of sICAM‐1 ,CRP and IL‐17 in 76 ca‐ses of elderly patients and 32 cases of youg patients with colorectal cancer were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay be‐fore and after surgery ,and to analyze its clinical significance correlated with pathological parameters .Meanwhile ,60 cases of healthy were controls .Results The serum levels of IL‐17 and sICAM‐1 were higher in patients with different ages of colorectal cancer than those of the normal control group (P0 .05) .The level of CRP before operation in the young group was higher than that in the normal control group (P0 .05) .The serum levels of sICAM‐1 and IL‐17 in colorectal cancer patients were associated with the degree of differentiation ,depth of invasion ,lymph node metastasis and TNM staging (P<0 .05) .The level of CRP was significantly correlated with the depth of invasion ,lymph node metastasis and TNM staging (P<0 .05) .Conclusion The serum levels of sICAM‐1 ,CRP and IL‐17 reflect the invasion and metastasis of colorectal cancer in a certain extent ,which play important roles in predicting the development and prognosis of colorectal cancer .
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the functional features of motor function area in patients with meningioma by blood oxygenation level dependent functional magnetic resonance imaging (BOLD-fMRI).Methods fMRI were obtained from 10 patients who suffered from meningioma which was adjacent to the motor function cortex.Probabilistic independent component analysis method was used for data analysis.Preoperative and postoperative line Karnofsky Performance Scale (KPS)score was used to assess the patient’s condition.Re-sults Contralateral primary motor cortex and the supplementary motor cortex motor functions were observed in all the activation clusters,in which one side activation area compared with the contralateral activation zone was symmetrical in 6 cases,and significant shift in 4 cases.In 4 patients with the movement function activated,tumor extrusion function shift forward or backwardwith tensile deforma-tion were found.Conclusion BOLD-fMRI imaging technology can effectively locate motor functional area for patients with meningi-oma,which can provide preoperative surgical planning.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate psychological health status and its change in short term among persons bit by dogs.Methods Psychological health status was evaluated with patient health questionnaire (PHQ-15) Chinese version for the 613 wounded persons bit by dogs,including 368 males and 245 females with average age of 36 years plus or minus 14 years (standard deviation),meanwhile their wounds were handled routinely at clinics,as well as health education and cognitive psychological intervention were provided for them.Results All of the 613 persons with dog bites had mild or moderate somatic syndrome in their initial visits and 478 of them (78.0%) still presented mild somatic syndrome and only 23 (3.7%)with moderate symptoms four week after dog bites by PHQ-15 scores.One hundred and fifty-two of 613 (24.8%) followed-up at their initial visits had depressive symptoms,which could remain in 61 of them (10.0%) four weeks after bites.Two hundred and eighty-four of them (46.3%) had anxiety symptoms at initial visits,and 258 (42.1%) still had mild and nine (1.5%) had moderate symptoms four weeks after bites.Conclusions Psychological symptoms were popular in wounded persons by dog bites,which can persist for a certain time.PHQ-15 can be used for evaluating their psychological status.
ABSTRACT
0.05).In the group with primary common bile duct suture,the occurrence of bile leakage was relative with hyperglycemia(P0.05).Conclusion It is the key factors,including chosing appropriate patients, intraoperative special examination, careful manipulation and effective medical treatment that can reduce the morbidity of bile leakage.
