DW-MRI scans with 14 b-values(0-1500 s/mm2) were performed before and after treatment on days 3, 7, 14 and 21. Fast diffusion component(presumably pseudo-perfusion) parameters including the fast diffusion coefficient(D*) and fraction volume(f p), slow diffusion coefficient(D) and the conventional apparent diffusion coefficients(ADC) were calculated by fitting the IVIM model to the measured DW signals. The median changes from the baseline to each posttreatment time point for each measurement(ΔADC, ΔD* and Δf p) were calculated. The differences in the median changes between the two groups were compared using the mixed linear regression model by the restricted maximum likelihood method shown as z values. Histopathological analyses including Ki-67, CD31, TUNEL and H&E were conducted in conjunction with the MRI scans. The median percentage changes were compared with the histopathological analyses between the pre-and post-treatment for each measurement.RESULTS Compared with the control group, D* in the treated group decreased significantly(ΔD*treated% =-30%,-34% and-20%, with z =-5.40,-4.18 and-1.95. P = 0.0001, 0.0001 and 0.0244) and f p increased significantly(Δfptreated% = 93%, 113% and 181%, with z = 4.63, 5.52, and 2.12, P = 0.001, 0.0001 and 0.0336) on day 3, 7 and 14, respectively. Increases in ADC in the treated group were higher than those in the control group on days 3 and 14(z = 2.44 and 2.40, P = 0.0147 and P = 0.0164). CONCLUSION Fast diffusion measurements derived from the biexponential IVIM model may be more sensitive imaging biomarkers than ADC to assess chemotherapy response in gastric adenocarcinoma.展开更多

METHODS： After a systematic literature search,all relevant studies evaluating the association between the three primary mutations of LHON and visual prognosis were included.All statistical tests were calculated with Revman 5.2 and STATA 12.0. RESULTS： Ten independent studies were included finally.A significant association between the three primary mutations and prognostic vision over 0.3 were found in G11778 A versus T14484 C [odds ratio（OR） =0.10,95% confidence interval（CI） =0.05-0.17,P 〈0.001],G11778 A versus G3460A（OR=0.18,95%CI=0.09-0.37,P 〈0.001） and T14484 C versus G3460A（OR =2.45,95% CI =1.10-5.48,P 〈0.05）.In addition,obtained by pairwise comparison,the vision during onset,age of onset and sex ratio of these three kinds of patients,have no statistical significance（P 〉0.05）.CONCLUSION： From pairwise comparison,we conclude that these three different genotypes of LHON are related to patients＇ visual prognosis.The T14484 C patients might have a best prognostic vision,G3460 A second,and G11778 A worst.And there is little relation between the three different genotypes and patients＇ vision,age of onset and sex ratio.展开更多

Mental retardation was present in about 30% of the reported cases. The purpose of this study was to investigate the genetic and clinical features of NHS in a Chinese family. Methods： Whole exome sequencing analysis was performed on DNA from an affected male to scan for can- didate mutations on the X-chromosome. Sanger sequencing was used to verify these candidate mutations in the whole family. Clinical and ophthalmological examinations were performed on all members of the family. Results： A combi- nation of exome sequencing and Sanger sequencing revealed a nonsense mutation c.322G〉T （E108X）in exon 1 of NHS gene, co-segregating with the disease in the family. The nonsense mutation led to the conversion of glutamic acid to a stop codon （E108X）, resulting in truncation of the NHS protein. Multiple sequence alignments showed that codon 108, where the mutation （c.322G〉T） occurred, was located within a phylogenetically conserved region. The clinical features in all affected males and female carriers are described in detail. Conclusions： We report a nonsense mutation c.322G〉T （E108X） in a Chinese family with NHS. Our findings broaden the spectrum of NHS mutations and provide molecular insight into future NHS clinical genetic diagnosis.展开更多

In this paper, we reviewed the existing data on mycosis across China to summarize available epidemiological profiles. We found that the general incidence of superficial fungal infections in China has been stable, but the incidence of tinea capitis has decreased and the transmission route has changed. By contrast, the overall incidence of invasive fungal infections has continued to rise. The occurrence of candidemia caused by Candida species other than C. albicans and including some uncommon Candida species has increased recently in China. Infections caused by Aspergillus have also propagated in recent years, particularly with the emergence of azole-resistant Aspergillusfumigatus. An increasing trend of cryptococcosis has been noted in China, with Cryptococcus neoformans var. grubii ST 5 genotype isolates as the predominant pathogen. Retrospective studies have suggested that the epidemiological characteristics of Pneumocystis pneumonia in China may be similar to those in other developing countries. Endemic fungal infections, such as sporotrichosis in Northeastern China, must arouse research, diagnostic, and treatment vigilance. Currently, the epidemiological data on mycosis in China are variable and fragmentary. Thus, a nationwide epidemiological research on fungal infections in China is an important need for improving the country＇s health.展开更多
