Abstract
PURPOSE The goal of this study is to investigate whether combined application of ultrasound and 99mTc-sestamibi SPECT/CT had the incremental value in accurately detecting parathyroid tissue in patients with SHPT over either method alone. PATIENTS AND METHODS Sixty patients with SHPT on hemodialysis were evaluated preoperatively with parathyroid 99mTc-sestamibi SPECT/CT scintigraphy and ultrasound prior to parathyroidectomy. The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of 99mTc-sestamibi SPECT/CT scintigraphy, ultrasound and combined application were determined respectively. RESULTS The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of ultrasound were 81% (155/192), 47% (17/36) and 82% (172/228), respectively. The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of 99mTc-sestamibi SPECT/CT were 85% (163/192), 58% (21/36) and 89% (184/228) respectively. The accuracy of 99mTc-sestamibi SPECT/CT in the diagnosis of parathyroid tissue in patients with SHPT is significantly higher than that of ultrasound. The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of combined application of ultrasound and 99mTc-sestamibi SPECT/CT were 93% (178/192), 61% (22/36) and 97% (200/228). The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of combined application of ultrasound and 99mTc-sestamibi SPECT/CT were higher than those of either ultrasound or 99mTc-sestamibi SPECT/CT. CONCLUSIONS The combined application of ultrasound and 99mTc-sestamibi SPECT/CT had incremental value in accurately detecting parathyroid tissue in patients with SHPT over either method alone.

Abstract
Most studies of the clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis of patients with distant metastasis of salivary adenoid cystic carcinoma (SACC) have used small patient samples. To further explore this issue, a descriptive and prognostic study of 467 patients with SACC who were treated from 1963 to 2009 was conducted at a single institution. One hundred and forty-five patients (31.0%) had distant metastases. At least 20% of patients who presented with the early-stage disease and no recurrence developed distant metastasis. The overall 5-, 10-, and 20-year survival rates were 85.6%, 67.4%, and 50.4%, respectively, for patients without distant metastasis, and 69.1%, 45.7%, and 14.3%, respectively, for patients with distant metastasis. The median survival time after distant metastasis was 36 months (range 1-112 months). The prognosis was similar between patients who received treatment for metastasis and those who did not. Patients who were diagnosed with early-stage disease and without local recurrence of the primary tumours could also develop distant metastases. The biological characteristics of adenoid cystic carcinoma were different from those of squamous cell carcinoma. At present, the effectiveness of treatment for distant metastases is not ideal and further research is needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is regarded as an effective treatment for various types of pain. However, no randomized controlled trial has investigated TENS on acupoints for postoperative analgesia in elderly patients. This study aim to investigate whether TENS on acupoints has any favorable effect on complementary analgesia after total hip arthroplasty (THA) for elderly patients compared with a sham control treatment. METHODS Sixty-eight elderly patients requiring THA surgery were enrolled and randomly allocated to one of two groups. Group Acu received true TENS on acupoints (bilateral P6, L14; ST36, GB31 ipsilateral to the surgery site) and Group Sham received sham treatment. All patients received patient-controlled analgesia for two days postoperatively. Analgesia was assessed by postoperative fentanyl requirement and pain intensity using a visual analogue scale (VAS-10 cm). The incidence of analgesia-related side effects, optional medication use and effects of patients' blinding were recorded. RESULTS Fentanyl consumption in Group Acu was lower than that in Group Sham at 24 h (mean ± SD; 360±117 vs. 572±132 μg; P<0.001) and 48 h (712±184 vs. 1022±197 μg; P<0.001) after surgery. Postoperative pain intensity measured by VAS was similar in both groups. The incidence of opioid-related side effects and rescue medication for postoperative analgesia was significantly higher in Group Sham than in Group Acu. Differences between the groups regarding the effects of patients' blinding were not significant. CONCLUSION TENS on specific acupoints is an effective and complementary approach to reduce postoperative analgesic requirement in elderly patients after THA.

Abstract
Asperger disorder (ASP) is one of the autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and is differentiated from autism largely on the absence of clinically significant cognitive and language delays. Analysis of a homogenous subset of families with ASP may help to address the corresponding effect of genetic heterogeneity on identifying ASD genetic risk factors. To examine the hypothesis that common variation is important in ASD, we performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) in 124 ASP families in a discovery data set and 110 ASP families in a validation data set. We prioritized the top 100 association results from both cohorts by employing a ranking strategy. Novel regions on 5q21.1 (P = 9.7 × 10(-7) ) and 15q22.1-q22.2 (P = 7.3 × 10(-6) ) were our most significant findings in the combined data set. Three chromosomal regions showing association, 3p14.2 (P = 3.6 × 10(-6) ), 3q25-26 (P = 6.0 × 10(-5) ) and 3p23 (P = 3.3 × 10(-4) ) overlapped linkage regions reported in Finnish ASP families, and eight association regions overlapped ASD linkage areas. Our findings suggest that ASP shares both ASD-related genetic risk factors, as well as has genetic risk factors unique to the ASP phenotype.

Abstract
Autism is a heritable neurodevelopmental disorder with substantial genetic heterogeneity. Studies point to possible links between autism and two serotonin related genes: SLC6A4 and ITGB3 with a sex-specific genetic effect and interaction between the genes. Despite positive findings, inconsistent results have complicated interpretation. This study seeks to validate and clarify previous findings in an independent dataset taking into account sex, family-history (FH) and gene-gene effects. Family-based association analysis was performed within each gene. Gene-gene interactions were tested using extended multifactor dimensionality reduction (EMDR) and MDR-phenomics (MDR-P) using sex of affecteds and FH as covariates. No significant associations with individual SNPs were found in the datasets stratified by sex, but associations did emerge when we stratified by family history. While not significant in the overall dataset, nominally significant association was identified at RS2066713 (P = 0.006) within SLC6A4 in family-history negative (FH-) families, at RS2066713 (P = 0.038) in family-history positive (FH+) families but with the opposite risk allele as in the FH- families. For ITGB3, nominally significant association was identified at RS3809865 overall (P = 0.040) and within FH+ families (P = 0.031). However, none of the associations survived the multiple testing correction. MDR-P confirmed gene-gene effects using sex of affecteds (P = 0.023) and family history (P = 0.014, survived the multiple testing corrections) as covariates. Our results indicate the extensive heterogeneity within these two genes among families. The potential interaction between SLC6A4 and ITGB3 may be clarified using family history as an indicator of genetic architecture, illustrating the importance of covariates as markers of heterogeneity in genetic analyses.

Abstract
Autism is a common neurodevelopmental disorder with a significant genetic component and locus heterogeneity. To date, 12 microsatellite genome screens have been performed using various data sets of sib-pair families (parents and affected children) resulting in numerous regions of potential linkage across the genome. However, no universal region or consistent candidate gene from these regions has emerged. The use of large, extended pedigrees is a recognized powerful approach to identify significant linkage results, as these families potentially contain more potential linkage information than sib-pair families. A genome-wide linkage analysis was performed on 26 extended autism families (65 affected, 184 total individuals). Each family had two to four affected individuals comprised of either avuncular or cousin pairs. For analysis, we used a high-density single-nucleotide polymorphism genotyping assay, the Affymetrix GeneChip Human Mapping 10K array. Two-point analysis gave peak heterogeneity limit of detection (HLOD) of 2.82 at rs2877739 on chromosome 14q. Suggestive linkage evidence (HLOD>2) from a two-point analysis was also found on chromosomes 1q, 2q, 5q, 6p,11q and 12q. Chromosome 12q was the only region showing significant linkage evidence by multipoint analysis with a peak HLOD=3.02 at rs1445442. In addition, this linkage evidence was enhanced significantly in the families with only male affected (multipoint HLOD=4.51), suggesting a significant gender-specific effect in the etiology of autism. Chromosome-wide haplotype analyses on chromosome 12 localized the potential autism gene to a 4 cM region shared among the affected individuals across linked families. This novel linkage peak on chromosome 12q further supports the hypothesis of substantial locus heterogeneity in autism.

Abstract
Gene-gene interactions are likely involved in many complex genetic disorders and new statistical approaches for detecting such interactions are needed. We propose a multi-analytic paradigm, relying on convergence of evidence across multiple analysis tools. Our paradigm tests for main and interactive effects, through allele, genotype and haplotype association. We applied our paradigm to genotype data from three GABAA receptor subunit genes (GABRB3, GABRA5, and GABRG3) on chromosome 15 in 470 Caucasian autism families. Previously implicated in autism, we hypothesized these genes interact to contribute to risk. We detected no evidence of main effects by allelic (PDT, FBAT) or genotypic (genotype-PDT) association at individual markers. However, three two-marker haplotypes in GABRG3 were significant (HBAT). We detected no significant multi-locus associations using genotype-PDT analysis or the EMDR data reduction program. However, consistent with the haplotype findings, the best single locus EMDR model selected a GABRG3 marker. Further, the best pairwise genotype-PDT result involved GABRB3 and GABRG3, and all multi-locus EMDR models also selected GABRB3 and GABRG3 markers. GABA receptor subunit genes do not significantly interact to contribute to autism risk in our overall data set. However, the consistency of results across analyses suggests that we have defined a useful framework for evaluating gene-gene interactions.

Abstract
Autism is a common neurodevelopmental disorder with a significant genetic component. Existing research suggests that multiple genes contribute to autism and that epigenetic effects or gene-gene interactions are likely contributors to autism risk. However, these effects have not yet been identified. Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter in the adult brain, has been implicated in autism etiology. Fourteen known autosomal GABA receptor subunit genes were studied to look for the genes associated with autism and their possible interactions. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were screened in the following genes: GABRG1, GABRA2, GABRA4, and GABRB1 on chromosome 4p12; GABRB2, GABRA6, GABRA1, GABRG2, and GABRP on 5q34-q35.1; GABRR1 and GABRR2 on 6q15; and GABRA5, GABRB3, and GABRG3 on 15q12. Intronic and/or silent mutation SNPs within each gene were analyzed in 470 white families with autism. Initially, SNPs were used in a family-based study for allelic association analysis--with the pedigree disequilibrium test and the family-based association test--and for genotypic and haplotypic association analysis--with the genotype-pedigree disequilibrium test (geno-PDT), the association in the presence of linkage (APL) test, and the haplotype family-based association test. Next, with the use of five refined independent marker sets, extended multifactor-dimensionality reduction (EMDR) analysis was employed to identify the models with locus joint effects, and interaction was further verified by conditional logistic regression. Significant allelic association was found for markers RS1912960 (in GABRA4; P = .01) and HCV9866022 (in GABRR2; P = .04). The geno-PDT found significant genotypic association for HCV8262334 (in GABRA2), RS1912960 and RS2280073 (in GABRA4), and RS2617503 and RS12187676 (in GABRB2). Consistent with the allelic and genotypic association results, EMDR confirmed the main effect at RS1912960 (in GABRA4). EMDR also identified a significant two-locus gene-gene effect model involving RS1912960 in GABRA4 and RS2351299 in GABRB1. Further support for this two-locus model came from both the multilocus geno-PDT and the APL test, which indicated a common genotype and haplotype combination positively associated with disease. Finally, these results were also consistent with the results from the conditional logistic regression, which confirmed the interaction between GABRA4 and GABRB1 (odds ratio = 2.9 for interaction term; P = .002). Through the convergence of all analyses, we conclude that GABRA4 is involved in the etiology of autism and potentially increases autism risk through interaction with GABRB1. These results support the hypothesis that GABA receptor subunit genes are involved in autism, most likely via complex gene-gene interactions.

Abstract
Autism is a complex disorder characterized by genetic and phenotypic heterogeneity. Analysis of phenotypically homogeneous subtypes has been used to both confirm and narrow potential autism linkage regions such as the chromosomal region 15q11-q13. Increased evidence for linkage in this region had been found in a subgroup of 21 autism families (total families = 94) stratified based on a savant skill factor (SSF) from the Autism Diagnostic Interview, Revised (ADI-R). We examined the savant phenotypic finding in our sample of 91 multiplex autism families. Using two-point parametric analysis in stratification with a cutoff point of a savant skill score of 0.16, our families failed to demonstrate linkage to 15q11-q13. In addition, ordered subset analysis (OSA) using SSF as a covariate also failed to show evidence for linkage. Our findings do not support savant skills as an informative phenotypic subset for linkage in our sample.

Abstract
We analyzed genetic diversity in the storage protein hordein encoded at Hor-1, Hor-2 and Hor-3 loci in seeds from 211 accessions of wild close relatives of barley, Hordeum vulgare ssp. agriocrithon and H. vulgare ssp. spontaneum. Altogether 32, 27 and 13 different phenotypes were found for Hor-1, Hor-2 and Hor-3, respectively. A comparison of our results with those of previous studies indicates that Tibetan samples reflect the highest diverse level of hordein phenotypes when compared to samples from Israel and Jordan. This high degree of polymorphism supports the hypothesis that Tibet is one of the original centers of H. vulgare L.

Abstract
In a series of 2,871 epithelial salivary gland neoplasms managed in the Peking University School of Stomatology between 1974 and 1999, 86 arose in children <16 years of age (52 parotid, 12 submandibular gland, 2 sublingual gland, and 20 minor salivary gland). Considerable delay was encountered in diagnosis (benign 24 months and malignant 16 months). In this group of children, 46 tumours (53%) proved to be malignant, with an incidence in the parotid, submandibular, sublingual, and minor salivary glands of 31/52 (60%), 2/12, 0/2, and 13/20 (65%), respectively. Sixty-six of 86 neoplasms (77%) occurred in children between 10 and 16 years of age. Only six neoplasms were encountered in children of 5 years or younger, four of which were high-grade malignant tumours. Benign tumours were successfully treated by local excision with only one recurrence. Of 46 malignant neoplasms, 8 were treated palliatively; of the remainder 8 were lost to follow-up and 2 patients died of their disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the association of clinical risk factors and bone density with prevalent fractures in prepubertal children. METHODS Bone mineral density (BMD) in lumbar spine, femoral neck and total body bone was assessed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Clinical data on risk factors were collected by measurement and questionnaires. RESULTS Of 324 children, 32 (10%) had a prevalent fracture (upper limb 69%). Most fractures were due to low-energy falls at home (69%). Children with fractures were older (P = 0.04), had higher levels of sports participation (P = 0.03), lower levels of breastfeeding (P = 0.05) and tended towards higher usage of inhaled corticosteroids in the previous year (P = 0.05). However, both BMD and apparent BMD did not differ between those with and without prevalent fracture. No differences were observed in the proportion of maternal fractures, maternal smoking during pregnancy, asthma history and oral prednisolone in last year (all P > 0.05). A final model incorporating age, weight, height, breastfeeding history, sports participation and inhaled corticosteroid usage accounted for 10% of the variability in the odds of fracture (P = 0.03). CONCLUSION These results suggest that BMD may be less important than clinical risk factors for total fracture risk in prepubertal children. However, sample size limitations mean that further investigation in larger populations with less heterogeneity in fracture types is warranted.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the potential use of two parenterally safe beta-cyclodextrins derivatives, (SBE)7m-beta-CD and HP-beta-CD, as solubilizers and stabilizers for melphalan and carmustine, two very unstable antineoplastic agents. Phase solubility and chemical stability of the compounds in the presence of the cyclodextrins were studied. UV, fluorescence, and several NMR techniques were used to probe the potential causes for the differences observed. The phase solubility method was found to provide only qualitative data on the binding of melphalan to the cyclodextrins since rapid degradation and the presence of products of degradation complicated the interpretation of the results. Qualitatively, however, the solubilizing potential was similar for the two cyclodextrins. The chemical stability studies indicate that both of the drugs had similar binding constants for both cyclodextrins; however, the intrinsic reactivities in the complexes were significantly lower with (SBE)7m-beta-CD than for HP-beta-CD. The main cause for this distinct difference appeared to correlate with differences in the site of binding and the polarity of the binding site.

Abstract
The objective of this work was to evaluate the potential of using (SBE)(7m)-beta-CD and HP-beta-CD as enabling excipients to improve on the current melphalan injectable formulation. Melphalan is an anti-neoplastic agent formulated for parenteral use as a sterile, non-pyrogenic, freeze-dried powder. It is marketed by Glaxo-Wellcome as ALKERAN((R)) for Injection (Alkeran). A major concern with melphalan therapy, other than its intrinsic cytotoxicity and biocompatibility, arises from its marginal aqueous solubility and chemical stability; thus, co-solvents are used in the current two-vial formulation. Because of the two-vial system, the product is also inconvenient to use. Two approaches to improve melphalan's formulation utilizing cyclodextrins, including the use of aqueous (SBE)(7m)-beta-CD or HP-beta-CD solutions as the reconstitution diluents, and/or the use of (SBE)(7m)-beta-CD as a freeze-drying excipient in a melphalan formulation, are presented. Results showed that, when the cyclodextrins were used as diluents, the use of organic co-solvents can be eliminated and the shelf-life of the reconstituted melphalan greatly enhanced. When the freeze-dried melphalan/(SBE)(7m)-beta-CD formulation was prepared, the formulation was found to be stable; and a simplified one-vial delivery system was achieved. In conclusion, the parenterally safe beta-cyclodextrins derivatives can provide promising alternatives and improved formulations for melphalan injectable and perhaps similar problematic drugs.

Abstract
The results of local excision of Warthin's tumour in the parotid gland (n = 61) (resection of the tumour together with surrounding normal gland and associated lymph nodes) were compared with those of superficial parotidectomy (n = 88) for incidence of recurrence, duration of operation, and degree of facial deformity. A subgroup of patients in each group were tested for gustatory sweating (iodine starch test) and parotid function (quantitative scintigraphy). Local excision had the following advantages over superficial parotidectomy: shorter operating time, less risk of facial nerve damage, less facial deformity, lower incidence of Frey's syndrome, and better preservation of the function of the parotid gland.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to assess the reliability of hand grip strength as an indicator of nutritional state, and to see if it was of any value in the prediction of postoperative complications. One-hundred and twenty-seven patients who presented with oral and maxillofacial cancer were studied for measurement of hand grip strength, mid-arm muscle circumference, and creatinine-height index. Hand grip strength correlated well with mid-arm muscle circumference and creatinine-height index. Patients whose hand grip strength was < 85% of the control value developed significantly more postoperative complications than those in whom it was 85% or more (15/31 (48%) compared with 12/65 (18%), P = 0.004). In conclusion, hand grip strength is not only a useful, non-invasive indicator of skeletal muscle mass, but may also be of use in predicting postoperative complications.

Abstract
A nutritional assessment battery consisting of the patient's history, anthropometric measurements, and laboratory tests was used to characterize the nutritional status of 127 patients with oral and maxillofacial malignancies. Forty-three percent of these patients had good nutrition, 21% fair, and 36% poor. The pattern of nutritional impairment was a protein-calorie deficiency. A close correlation with malnutrition was found for diminished oral intake and tumor stage. Gender, tobacco or alcohol consumption, job, and living place were not related to nutritional status.

Abstract
The general nutritional status (GNS) score was used to assess the nutritional status of 127 consecutive patients with oral and maxillofacial malignancies. Forty-six of our patients (36.2%) were undernourished (group 2), while 81 (63.8%) were in good nutritional condition (group 1). Comparison of nutritional laboratory tests between these two groups showed that the differences in serum albumin, transferrin, and creatinine-height index (CHI) had statistical significance, yielding an excellent correlation between the GNS score and the nutritional laboratory test. Undernourished patients had a significantly higher postoperative complication incidence (48.3%) than well-nourished patients (19.4%) (chi 2 = 6.637; P < 0.01), indicating that the GNS score can be used as a prognostic index.

Abstract
A case-control study of oral cancer was conducted in Beijing, People's Republic of China. The study was hospital-based and controls were hospital in-patients matched to the cases by age and gender. A total of 404 case/control pairs were interviewed. This paper provides data regarding oral conditions as risk factors for oral cancer, with every patient having an intact mouth examined (pre-operation among cases) using a standard examination completed by trained oral physicians. After adjustment for tobacco smoking and alcohol consumption, poor dentition--as reflected by missing teeth--emerged as a strong risk factor for oral cancer: the odds ratio (OR) for those who had lost 15-32 teeth compared to those who had lost none was 5.3 for men and 7.3 for women and the trend was significant (P less than 0.01) in both genders. Those who reported that they did not brush their teeth also had an elevated risk (OR = 6.9 for men, 2.5 for women). Compared to those who had no oral mucosal lesions on examination (OR = 1.0), persons with leukoplakia and lichen planus also showed an elevated risk of oral cancer among men and women. Denture wearing per se did not increase oral cancer risk (OR = 1.0 for men, 1.3 for women) although wearing metal dentures augmented risk (OR = 5.5 for men). These findings indicate that oral hygiene and several oral conditions are risk factors for oral cancer, independently of the known risks associated with smoking and drinking.

Abstract
A case-control study of oral cancer was conducted in Beijing, People's Republic of China (PRC). The study was hospital-based and controls were hospital in-patients matched for age and gender with the cases. The response rates for cases and controls were 100 percent and 404 case/control pairs were interviewed. Tobacco smoking and alcohol consumption emerged as independent risk factors for oral cancer. For tobacco smoking, the association was considerably stronger for smokers of pipes than for smokers of cigarettes. For all kinds of tobacco, expressed as cigarette equivalents, the odds ratio (OR) for total pack-years smoked, among males, rose from 1.0 in never-smokers to 3.7 (95 percent confidence interval, 1.8-7.4) in the highest quintile of exposure. Similar results were found for females. The association with tobacco consumption was strong for squamous cell carcinoma but there was no trend in risk associated with tobacco for adenocarcinomas and other histologic types. So few women reported consuming alcohol that this variable could be examined only in males. Risk in the highest category of total lifetime intake of alcohol relative to that in lifetime abstainers was 2.3 (1.1-4.8) with a significant trend in risk with increasing dose (P less than 0.002). The combined effects of tobacco and alcohol appear to be approximately multiplicative in males. The attributable risk of oral cancer for tobacco among tobacco smokers was estimated as 34 percent (45 percent among males and 21 percent among females); for alcohol consumption in males the estimate was 23 percent.

Abstract
This article presents 102 cases of recurrent parotitis in children with studies of clinical findings, sialographic manifestations, dynamic functions of the parotid gland examined with radionuclide, laboratory findings and follow-up studies of 28 cases with sialography. The following conclusions are reached: 1. Retrograde infection induced by the mumps virus and upper respiratory infection seem to play a major role in the etiology of recurrent parotitis. Familial abnormalities are potential factors. Incomplete immune functions of the children are factors related to the pathogenesis, and following growth and development of the immune system, this disease will undergo remission; 2. Sequential scintigraphy shows normal uptake and retarded excretion function of the parotid; 3. Long-term follow-up studies demonstrate that the patients are free from symptoms for many years, but the punctate dilatation in sialography may diminish, disappear, or be unchanged; and 4. If the disease is not cured in childhood, it may continue into adulthood and healing will take place eventually. Relationship with Sjogren's syndrome has not been revealed.

Abstract
This paper presents results of treatment in 570 cases with oral cancers. The overall 5-year survival rate was 64.5% and 92.8%, 84.9%, 50.2% and 16.4%, respectively for Stages I, II, III and IV. Five kinds of therapy have been used and discussed. The mortality rate of operation was 0.35%. The 5-year survival rate of 127 and 443 cases with and without cervical node metastases was 28.3% and 74.7% respectively. The 5-year survival rates of 81, 30 and 16 cases with involvement of 1, 2 and more than 3 nodes were 33.6%, 27.9% and 6.3% respectively. The 5-year survival rates were 35.5%, 14.4% and 0% when upper, middle and lower cervical nodes were respectively involved. Forty-six cases recurred and were operated on again, their 5-year survival rate was 23%.

Abstract
Animal models of cardiogenic edema, overhydration edema and respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) were established in 12 rabbits, radiography and CT of the chest were taken in supine position and compared with pathology. In cardiogenic and overhydration edema, the lesion is located at the posterior part of the lungs and around the hili both on CT image and the pathologic specimen. On the radiograph the lesion was projected onto the middle and inner zones of the lungs. In RDS, both CT and pathology showed that the peripheral and posterior parts of the lungs were involved, while on radiograph, the hazy shadows were situated at the periphery of the lungs or in a diffuse pattern. The authors were of the opinion that CT can demonstrate the lesions more clearly than radiography. The underlying mechanism for different distribution of lesions in pulmonary edema and RDS was discussed.

Abstract
Thirteen strains of Agrobacterium tumefaciens isolated from grapevine tumors in northern China were surveyed. These strains varied in their host range properties, although all were tumorigenic on grapevines. Twelve of these strains belonged to Agrobacterium sp. biotype 3, and 11 strains resulted in the synthesis of the opine octopine in tumor tissue. Interestingly, one strain resulted in accumulation of arginine, a previously unrecognized opine, in tumor tissue. Although DNA in most of these strains showed homology to the previously characterized transferred DNA and vir loci, some virulent strains showed little or no homology to these loci. Thus, some of these strains represent widely divergent examples of Agrobacterium sp. The DNA in most strains exhibited little or no homology to a wide-host-range virA locus but did show strong homology to a limited-host-range virA locus. This finding further supports the idea that Agrobacterium strains associated with grapevines may have a specific virA locus.

Abstract
243 patients with tumours of the minor salivary glands were analysed clinicopathologically. The palate was the most common location for the lesions. Mixed tumours (pleomorphic adenomas) were the most common benign tumour type. Muco-epidermoid carcinoma and adenoid cystic carcinoma were the dominant types of malignant tumours. For malignant tumours, the overall 3-year survival rate was 84.0%, 5-year 80.2%, 10-year 66.7% and 15-year 53.6%. The overall recurrency rate was 38.9%. The rate of cervical lymph node metastases and distant metastases rate were both 9.2%.

Abstract
Transfer and integration of a defined region (T-DNA) of the tumor-inducing (Ti) plasmid of Agrobacterium tumefaciens is essential for tumor formation. We used a physical assay to study structural changes induced in Agrobacterium T-DNA by cocultivation with plant cells. We show that nicks are introduced at unique, identical locations in each of the 24-base-pair imperfect direct repeats which flank the T-DNA and present evidence that a linear, single-stranded molecule is generated. We propose that these changes result from processing of the T-DNA for transfer and that they occur by a mechanism similar to DNA processing during conjugative DNA transfer between bacteria.

Abstract
Four hundred five cases with carcinoma of salivary glands were analyzed clinicopathologically; 181 tumors were located in parotid, 52 were in submandibular, 21 were in sublingual, and 151 were in minor salivary glands. Mucoepidermoid carcinoma and adenoid cystic carcinoma were the most common histologic types. The overall 3-, 5-, 10-, and 15-year survival rates were 77.8%, 69.6%, 55.8%, and 36.7%, respectively. The difference between survival and recurrence-free survival rate was 9%. The prognosis of acinic cell carcinoma and mucoepidermoid carcinoma was much better than that of squamous cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, and undifferentiated carcinoma. The survival rates of minor salivary gland tumors was the highest, and those of submandibular gland tumors were the lowest. Postoperative radiotherapy improved the prognosis of adenoid cystic carcinoma. The overall recurrence rate was 40.2%; the cervical lymph node metastases rate was 15.3%, and the distant metastases rate was 11.1%.

Abstract
342 cases with carcinoma of salivary glands were analysed. 152 tumors were located in parotid, 42 in submaxillary, 17 in sublingual and 131 in minor salivary glands. Pathological diagnosis were 106 mucoepidermoid carcinoma, 80 adenoid cystic carcinoma, 54 malignant mixed tumor, 40 adenocarcinoma, 38 papillary cystadenocarcinoma, 17 acinic cell carcinoma, 5 squamous cell carcinoma, and 2 undifferentiated carcinoma. The 3, 5, 10 and 15 year survival rates of these 342 cases were 76.6%, 65.9%, 48% and 29%, respectively. The difference between survival rate and relapse-free survival rate was about 8%. The prognosis of acinic cell carcinoma and mucoepidermoid carcinoma was much better than that of squamous cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma and undifferentiated carcinoma. The survival rates, according to location, were: minor salivary gland tumors the highest, and those of submaxillary gland tumors the lowest. Postoperative radiotherapy improved the survival rate of adenoid cystic carcinoma. The overall recurrence rate was 37.4%, the neck lymph node metastasis rate 14.3% and the distant metastasis rate 9.1%.
