Objective The aim of this study was to explore the values of IHP standard visual judgment,deauville(5-porint scoring and 5-PS)and maximum standard uptake rate(△SUVmax)image methods in the evaluation of early-and mid-term sensi-tivity determination and prognosis in malignant lymphoma patients. Methods A total of 51 patients with lymphoma who met the in-clusion criteria were selected for retrospectively analyses. PET/CT images of patients were analyzed by IHP standard visual judgment and deauville five-point methods. The△SUVmax value of the patient in the early and middle stages of treatment was calculated be-fore treatment, and the optimal cut-off value of PET/CT for early- and mid-term sensitivity determination and prognosis of evalu-ation△SUVmax was obtained by ROC curve. The differences between the diagnostic efficiencies of three methods were compared. The Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox proportional hazard regression model were used for univariate and multivariate analyses. Results The results of ROC curve analysis showed that PET/CT had the best diagnostic efficiency when△SUVmax was 56. 95% . IHP stand-ard visual judgment,deauville quintile and△SUVmax methods could obtain high sensitivity and negative predictive values for the ear-ly-term treatment of lymphoma treatment. The positive predictive values and accuracy of △SUVmax method were higher than other two methods. Conclusion IHP standard visual judgment,deauville 5,and △SUVmax have high clinical values in the evaluation of early and middle stage of lymphoma treatment and prognosis. They can be used as independent risk factors for prognosis.

Objective To investigate the influence of hyperactivity, Stereotyped behaviors , self-injury and irritabili?ty on parenting stress and emotions of the caregivers for patients with pervasive developmental disorders (PDDs). Methods Abnormal behaviors during last month were assessed in 138 PDDs patients by using Aberrant Behavior Checklist (ABC) and Conners Index of Hyperactivity (CIH). The parenting stress and the emotional state of the patients’parents were evalu?ated by the Caregiver Strain Questionnaire (CGSQ) and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HAD), respectively. Re?sults Anxiety, depression and combination of anxiety and depression were present in 6.2%, 17.8%and 29.5%of PDDs caregivers, respectively. The partial correlation analysis showed that CGSQ score of patients’parents positively correlated with CIH score (r=0.201, P=0.023) and stereotyped act (r=0.189, P=0.033) of the patients, and negatively correlated with stereotyped speech (r=-0.219, P=0.013). The anxious mood of parents positively correlated with stereotyped act (r=0.206, P=0.021). Conclusions Anxiety and depression are common in caregivers of PDDs. Except for stereotyped speech, aber?rant behaviors of the PDDs increase parenting stress and worsen anxious mood of caregivers.

This paper presents the results of an ultrustructural study of the hepatoma cell lines FSK 7901, FSK 7902 of long term cultures about 2 years more.The size of cell varies. Distribution of the cell is single or in epitheloid monolayer. Pseudopodial processes or microvilli cover the perimeter of certain hepatoma cells. In the monolayer, the microvilli exist where the neighboring plasmalemmae are in loose contact. When their contact is close, the neighboring plasmalemmae may be straight, wavelike or interdigitated. The nucleus and enlarged nucleoli are irregu- lar in shape. The deformity of nucleolonema is remarkable.Rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) and mitochondria are much less in number in the cytoplasm, but the free ribosomes is very abundant. The shape of mitochondria and their cristae are irregular. The Golgi complex is often or less arranged around 10 in a group, situated near the nucleus. Typical coucentric body from RER or SER has not been observed. Annulate lamellae are easily found. A peculiar structure, primordial rough-surfaced endoplasmic reticulum (PRER) is seen.Juxta-nuclear acidophilic area consists of a group of Goigi complex or Golgi complex and mitochondria.
