Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of bicyelol tablets in treatment of hepatitis B patients infected with YMDD mutation of HBV. Methods Sixty-eight chronic hepatitis patients infected with HBV YMDD mutants and 100 patients with non-mutants HBV were enrolled in the study. All patients received bicyclol tablets orally 150 mg/d, t. i. d, for 24 weeks. Clinical symptoms, signs and adverse effects were observed, and the blood routine, liver function tests, serum HBV markers and HBV DNA loads were examined at 12th and 24th week of the study, Results After treatment for 24 weeks, the normalization rates of ALT and AST in mutant group were 79.4% ( 54/68 ) and 70. 6% (48/68) ; 11 ( 16. 2% ) patients were markedly effective and 14 (20. 6% ) were effective. Clearance rates of HBeAg and HBV DNA were 27.9% ( 17/61 ) and 17.6% ( 12/68 ), while the seroconversion rate of HBeAg was 14. 7% (9/61). The differences of the above indexes were not statistically significant between mutant group and non-mutant group. Conclusion Bicyciol can both protect liver functions and inhibit virus replication in patients infected with HBV YMDD mutants.

OBJECTIVETo discuss the influence of setup errors on the accuracy of pelvic cancer in IGRT, analysis setup errors and determine the CTV-to-PTV margins.

METHODS60 pelvic cancer patients treated with Varian 23IX, all of them were performed by CBCT before and after-correction three times in the first week and after that once a week. Then, to measure the setup errors at X(left-right), Y(superior-inferior), Z(anterior-posterior) axis and E(coronal), F(sagittal), G(axial) rotation directions.

RESULTS530 scans obtained in all, the setup errors in X, Y, Z, E, F, G were (-0.52 ± 4.18) mm, (0.73 ± 4.86) mm, (-0.36 ± 3.62) mm, (0.14 ± 1.20)degrees, (0.13 ± 1.34)degrees, (0.21 ± 1.73)degrees respectively and were much lower after correction at X, Y, Z axis, besides, CTV-to-PTV margins decrease a lot.

CONCLUSIONThe accuracy of radiotherapy can be highly increased with the use of IGRT in pelvic cancer.

Objective To evaluate the application value of prehospital index (PHI) in hospitalized patients with acute trauma.Methods A study was done in 1802 hospitalized patients with acute trauma by random sampling.PHI and injury severity score (ISS) were made respectively.Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) was used for detecting optimal cut-off point by taking the date of discharge as the endpoint and the outcome as observed indicator.In order to compare the predicting prognosis value of PHI in hospitalized patients with acute trauma,the corresponding predicting indicators were calculated and ISS was used for reference.Results The area under the ROC curve was 0.871 (95％ CI:0.855-0.886) by the score of PHI and 0.792 (95％ CI:0.773-0.811) by the score of ISS,and there was statistically difference between the two scoring systems (Z =2.674,P =0.007),and the optimal cut-off point was used for judging the potential for critically ill patients when PHI was ≥ 4,ISS ≥ 22.The sensitivity predictors of critically ill patients death of PHI was superior to ISS (x2 =6.975,P =0.008),the specificity and the accuracy of PHI and ISS showed no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions PHI has high potential for assessing patient condition and predicting the death of hospitalized patients with acute trauma,and it is equivalent to ISS in prediction value.The advantages of PHI are simple in operation,easy to learn,reflecting the condition timely and reliably,suitable for dynamic evaluation and comparison,which is suitable for critical patients with trauma of preliminary screening.

The deep analysis has been done on the cases of adverse events and common injury of cupping therapy encountered in recent years in terms of manipulation and patient's constitution. The adverse events of cupping therapy are commonly caused by improper manipulation of medical practitioners, ignoring contraindication and patient's constitution. Clinical practitioners should use cupping therapy cautiously, follow strictly the rules of standard manipulation and medical core system, pay attention to the contraindication and take strict precautions against the occurrence of adverse events.

Objectives To explore the calcium signaling mechanism of STIM1 in breast cancer cells. Meth-ods After SiRNA interruption, Western blot and Transwell were used to measure protein expression of STIM1 and cell migration in MDA-MB-231 cells respectively. The relationship between STIM1 and SOCE calcium signaling were analysed by Laser confocal microscopy. Western blots were used to measure protein expression of FAK after si-lence STIM1. Results The numbers of cells without STIM1 were significantly lower than those cells with STIM1 by Transwell assay. STIM1 mediated SOCE in MDA-MB-231. Blocking SOCE might inhibite cells migration. Si-lence STIM1 did not affect the expression or activation of FAK in MDA-MB-231 cells. Conclusion STIM1 influ-ences cell migration through SOCE pathway in breast cancer cells, which is independent on the expression or activa-tion of FAK.

Objective To investigate the molecular epidemiology of hepatitis B virus(HBV) in child carriers. Methods Blood samples were collected from children under 15 in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces. Enzyme immunoassay(EIA) and microparticle enzyme immunoassay(MEIA) were applied to screen hepatitis B surface antigen(HBsAg) positive children. Nested-PCR and real time PCR were used to amplify the HBV S gene and detected HBV DNA loads. S gene sequence and three-dimensional structure were analyzed by the DNASTAR and VMD1.8.6, respectively. SPSS 12.0 software was applied for data processing. Results A total of 64 HBsAg-positive cases were found in the screened children, from which 41 HBV S gene sequences were obtained. The average HBV DNA loads were(4.15±0.79)×10~7 copies/mL in 64 HBV carriers. Among 41 sequences. genotype C, B and B+C accounted for 82.93%(34/41), 12.19%(5/41)and 4.88%(2/41), respectively; and the serotypes were adr(34/39,87.18%), adw(4/39,10.24%) and ayr (1/39, 2.56%) with 2 strains unable to be sub-typed. The most common variants of "a" determinant in HBV S gene were 129 site Q→F(glutamine→phenylalanine), 145 site G→R(glycine→lysine), 131 site S→N(serine→asparagine)and 144 site C→A(cysteine→alanine), and the mutation frequencies were 12.20%(5/41), 4.88%(2/41), 2.27%(1/41)and 2.27%(1/41), respectively . The total mutation frequency was 21.95%(9/41). The S protein spatial structures of 129 site "Q→F" and 145 site "G→R" were entirely different from that of the wild strain. Conclusion Wild strain of HBV(C/adr) is predominant in the children HBV carriers, exhibiting a high replication, and the HBV vaccine should be still effective.

Objective To review the diagnosis and treatment of hepatic veno-occlusive disease(HVOD)induced by sedum aizoon in HBsAg positive patients. Methods Clinical data of 35 HBsAg positive cases who took sedum aizoon decoction and developed HVOD were collected, the clinical manifestation, imaging examination, histological examination of liver puncture biopsy, and the outcomes of patients were reviewed. Results Hepatomegaly, liver dysfunction, abdominal effusion and map-like density changes in liver CT scan were observed in 35 patients. Liver biopsy wag performed in 17 patients. In histopathological examination, the swelling and point-like necrosis of liver cells, expansion and congestion of sinus, endothelial swelling, wall thickening, incomplete lumen occlusion of small liver vascular were observed. Map-like density changes in liver CT scan were found in all 17 patients who were diagnosed by histological examination. Fifteen patients presented small amount of ascites within 4 weeks of onset, 13 of whom recovered or improved after treated with low-molecular weight heparin and albumin; while among the remaining 20 patients. only half of them were benefited from the same treatments. Conclusion HVOD can be diagnosed by liver CT scan instead of histological examination; treatment of patients in early stage may improve the outcome.
