Objective:To explore the clinical effect of different surgical methods combined with Neoadjuvant chemotherapy in treating patients with breast cancer.Methods:80 patients treated and diagnosed in our hospital from January,2012 to January,2014 were enrolled in the present study.According to the willingness,physical condition and financial situation,they were divided them into group A (23 cases) and group B (57 cases).Neoadjuvant chemotherapy of EC regimens (epirubicin+cyclophosphamide) was applied to both groups,on the basis of which,group A received breast-conserving surgery,group B received modified radical mastectomy.The clinical effect,breast cosmetic result,life quality,psychological states were compared in both groups.Results:The operation time,extubation time were significantly shorter than those of group B (p ＜0.05),the amount of bleeding,AMA,HRSD score,occurrence rate of complications in group A were significantly lower than those of group B (p＜0.05),the breast cosmetic result of group A was obviously better than that of group B (p＜0.05),and the QLQ-BR23 score in group A was significantly higher than that of group B (p＜0.05).The 2-year survival rate and 2 year recurrence rate showed no statistical difference between the two groups (p ＞0.05).Conclusion:Breast-conserving surgery combined with epirubicin neoadjuvant chemotherapy was effective in treating breast cancer,which could decrease the complications,improve the breast cosmetic result and quality of life.

Objective To explore the effect of tetramethylpyrazine (TMP) on serum cytokines and cardiac function in patients with sepsis myocardial injury.Methods Fifty patients with sepsis myocardial injury were admitted in Hangzhou First People's Hospital from June 2015 to September 2016,and according to the computer generated random number,they were divided into conventional treatment group and TMP treatment group,25 cases in each group.The patients in the conventional treatment group were treated with antimicrobial agents,vasoactive drugs,fluid resuscitation and organ function support,etc.;TMP treatment group was treated with traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) TMP on the basis of routine treatment.TMP 120 mg was added to 250 mL normal saline (NS) for intravenous drip once a day for a therapeutic course of 10 days.Plasma N-terminal pro-B type natriuretic peptidec (NT-proBNP) and serum tmnor necrosis factor-oα (TNF-α) levels were measured before treatment and on 1,5 and 10 days after treatment.Left ventricular internal systolic dimension (LVIDs),fractional shortening (FS) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were measured by cardiac ultrasound,3 cardiac cycles were measured and the average results were taken.The intensive care unit (ICU) hospital stay and mortality were calculated in the two groups.Results The levels of NT-proBNP and TNF-α in the two groups after treatment were lower than those before treatment,the differences in the levels were statistically significant between those before treatment and 5 days after treatment in the conventional treatment group [NT-proBNP (ng/L):334.25 ± 36.46 vs.577.72 ± 60.34,TNF-α (ng/L):388.48 ± 43.38 vs.507.74-± 31.63,both P ＜ 0.05],and in TMP treatment group,the levels from 1 day after treatment compared with those before treatment,there were statistical significant differences [NT-proBNP (ng/L):387.44 ± 36.39 vs.571.67-± 56.34,TNF-α(ng/L):403.79 ± 23.20 vs.505.82 ± 31.31,both P ＜ 0.05];the degrees of decrease in TMP treatment group were more obvious than those in conventional treatment group (all P ＜ 0.01).After treatment in the two groups,the LVIDs was decreased gradually,FS and LVEF were increased gradually,reaching the lowest or highest level on 10 days after treatment,and the changes of TMP treatment group were more significant than those in the conventional treatment group,LVIDs and LVEF of the two groups showed statistically significant differences on 5 days after treatment [LVIDs (mm):43.23 ± 5.57vs.48.21 ± 2.29,LVEF:0.47 ± 0.02 vs.0.41 ± 0.02,both P ＜ 0.05],FS on 1 day after treatment showed a statistically significant difference [FS:(23.92 ± 1.81)％ vs.(22.84 ± 1.79)％,P ＜ 0.05].The ICU stay in the TMP group was shorter than that in the conventional treatment group (days:13.16 ± 2.67 vs.16.48-± 3.08,P ＜ 0.05),and the mortality was lower than that of conventional treatment group [20％ (5/25) vs.36％ (9/25)],the difference being not statistically significant (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions In septic myocardial injury,TNF-α plays an important role;after TMP treatment in patients with myocardial injury caused by viral myocarditis,the serum TNF-α level is decreased showing it has antagonizing TNF-α activity,thus it has protective effect on sepsis myocarditis,improves heart function and the disease prognosis.

Objective To study the molecular characters of porA and porB genes which encode outer membrane proteins (OMP), and predominated clonal complex of Neisseria meningitidis isolates from Guangdong province. Methods Eighteen Neisseria meningitidis isolates from Guangdong province during year 1967 to 2007 were recovered and reconfirmed by API NH biochemical system, and serogrouped by antiserum. The characters of porA and porB gene were analyzed by DNA sequencing. The allele profiles and the sequence types (ST) were determined by multilocus sequence typing (MLST). Based on their allelic profiles, the evolution relationship was analyzed by PHYLIP software. The predominant clonal complex was determined through comparing with the information of reference strains from the PubMLST database. Results For porA gene, type 20 was more frequently in the variable region (VR) 1 and type 9 in VR2 before year 2004. However, for porB gene, type 4 was more frequently in VR Ⅰ, type7 in VR Ⅳ, type 11 in VR Ⅴ,and type 10 in VR Ⅵ, respectively. The multi-types character was presented in VR Ⅴ and VR Ⅵ after2004. VR Ⅶ and VR Ⅷ can not be found among all the isolates except for one W135 isolate in 2007. Among the seven housekeeping genes, the polymorphism of abcZ was the lowest one with 4 allele numbers, while pgm was the highest one with 13 allele numbers. The predominant clonal complex was ST-5 before 2004. The ST-4821 clone complex appeared in 2004 and caused cases every year since then. More important, highly invasive ST-11 clonal complex firstly appeared in Guangdong in 2007. Conclusion The molecular characteristic of OMP genes presents polymorphism for the Neisseria meningitidis isolates from patients in Guangdong province during 1967 to 2007. ST-5 is the predominant clonal complex before 2004 and the highly invasive clonal complex is circulating in recent 3 years. It suggests that the surveillance based on laboratory should be further enhanced.

Pathohistological observations on the soft tissue wounds experimentally produced with steel-bullets of three different weights and 8 different velocities were carried out on 42 dogs. It was found that if the weight of the bullets was identi- cal while their velocities were different, the severity of the injury and the extent of the contusion zone were directly related to the velocity of the bullet. The characteristic feature was that the injury at the entrance of the bullet was more severe than that at the exit. It might be resulted from the fact that the energy of the bullet was rapidly delivered soon after it penetrated the skin because of its light weight and the high resistance of the tissues.

AIM: To investigate the potassium channel gene expression of myocardial sleeves of pulmonary vein and effects of amiodarone on rabbits with rapid atrial pacing.METHODS: Rabbits were divided into three groups(n=10),(1) the control group with sham operation and placebo;(2) the right atrial pacing(RAP) group at 600 beats/min with the placebo;(3) the amiodarone group treated for seven days with oral amiodarone at 100 mg ? kg-1 ? d-1.Based on RAP simultaneously,the messenger ribonucleic acid(mRNA) of specimen was measured by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction.RESULTS: Compared with the control group,Kv4.3(transient outward K+ current,Ito1) mRNA expression in RAP group was reduced by 51%(P

A 23 amino acid, bifunctional integrin-targeted synthetic oligopeptide was evaluated for ex vivo gene delivery to rabbit bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs). Synthesis of the peptide (K)16GRGDSPC was performed on a solid-phase batch peptide synthesizer. BMSCs were transfected with plasmid DNA coding for luciferase by (K)16GRGDSPC and the transfection efficiency was assayed. The influences of chloroquine and polyethyleneimine on the transfection efficiency were also examined. The target specificity of (K)16GRGDSPC to mediate exogenous gene into BMSCs was analyzed using cell attachment test and gene delivery inhibition test. The results showed that the transfection efficiency of the oligopeptide vector was lower than that of Lipofectamine. But in the presence of endosomal buffer chloroquine or endosomal disrupting agent polyethyleneimine, the transfection efficiency of the vector was greatly enhanced. In addition, RGD-containing peptides inhibited BMSCs' attachment to the 96-well plates pretreated with fibronectin or vitronectin and significantly decreased the transfection efficiency of the oligopeptide vector. These studies demonstrated that oligopeptide (K)16GRGDSPC was an ideal novel targeted non-viral gene delivery vector, which was easy to be synthesized, high efficient and low cytotoxicity. The vector could effectively deliver exogenous gene into rat BMSCs.

Objective To study the epidemic and genetic characteristics of coxsackievirus A6 ( CVA6) strains isolated in Guangdong province.Methods Enterovirus strains positive for neither entero-virus A71 ( EV71) nor CVA16 were isolated from Guangdong province during 2008 to 2013 to screen CVA6 isolates by real-time PCR.The entire sequences of viral genes encoding VP1 of CVA6 positive samples were amplified and sequenced.The phylogenetic analysis was performed to analyze the full-length gene sequences encoding VP1 of CVA6 isolates and sequences downloaded from GenBank by using DNAStar6.0 and MEGA5.2 software packages.Results CVA6 strains accounted for 61.4%of the 1672 non-EV71 and non-CVA16 enterovirus strains isolated in Guangdong province during year 2008 to 2013.The positive rates were respectively 10.5%(4/38), 66.7%(34/51), 36.2% (81/224), 63.0% (182/289), 62.3% (325/522) and 73.0%(400/548) from 2008 to 2013 and the differences among different years were significant (χ2=133.79, P<0.01).The CVA6 isolates could be classified into four clusters in the phylogenetic tree, designated A, B, C and D (including D1, D2 and D3 subgenogroups) genogroups.The four clusters shared nucleotide diversity ranging from 15.5% to 23.1%.The CVA6 strains isolated in Guangdong province shared 88.7%-100.0% homologies in nucleotide and 95.7%-100.0% in amino acid.Subtype D2 strains circulated during 2008 to 2012 and subtype D3 strains circulated during 2009 to 2013.Conclusion CVA6 strains were the predominant enterovirus strains among non-EV71 and non-CVA16 enterovirus strains circula-ted in Guangdong province from year 2008 to 2013.The CVA6 isolates could be classified into A, B, C and D genogroups based on the sequence analysis of VP1 region.Subgroups D2 and D3 isolates were identified and the subgroup D3 isolates were the prevalent strains in Guangdong.
