OBJECTIVE:To investigate the therapeutic efficacy and safety of mycophenolate mofetil combined with glucocorti-coid in the treatment of refractory idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). METHODS:134 cases of refractory ITP were ran-domly divided into observation group and control group,with 67 cases in each group. Control group was given Prednison acetate tablet orally,0.5 mg/kg each day,morning and evening. Observation group was additionally given Mycophenolate mofetil dispers-ible tablet,1 g/time,bid. A treatment course lasted for 3 weeks,and both groups received 3-5 courses of treatment. Clinical effica-cy of 2 groups were compared as well as the change of PLT before and after treatment,satisfaction degree of treatment and adverse event. RESULTS:The total effective rate of observation group (91.04%) was significantly higher than that of control group (74.63%),with statistical significance(P<0.05);PLT of observation group was significantly greater than that of control group 7, 14 and 21 d after treatment,with statistical significance(P<0.05);total satisfactory degree of observation group was significantly higher than that of control group (89.55% vs. 80.60%),and the incidence of adverse event was significantly lower than control group(2.99% vs. 10.44%),with statistical significance(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Mycophenolate mofetil combined with glu-cocorticoid can improve clinical efficacy,PLT and satisfactory degree significantly in the treatment of refractory ITP with good safety.

OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of Shugan jianpi formula on the proliferation and apoptosis of the hyperplastic tissues of mammary gland of model rats.METHODS:The rats were injected with benzestrofol and progesterone to establish mammoplasia model,meanwhile which were treated intragastrically with Shugan jianpi formula for 30 days.The degree of mammoplasia,as well as the PCNA(proliferating cell nuclear antigen),the apoptotic related regulating factors such as Bcl-2 and Bax and the apoptotic index(AI)of the mammary gland were detected.RESULTS:Shugan jianpi formula inhibited the mammoplasia,down-regulated the expression levels of PCNA and Bcl-2,up-regulated the expression level of Bax and AI,inhibited the proliferation of the mammary tissues and promoted apoptosis.CONCLUSION:Shugan jianpi formula blocks or reverses the hyperplasia of mammary gland by regulating the cell proliferation/apoptosis of the hyperplastic tissues of mammary gland.

Carbohydrate antigen-125 is a nonspecific tumor marker,which was used as an aid in the diagnosis and monitoring of patients with ovarian cancer in the past.But recent studies find that CA-125 in patients with liver disease also has different expression levels.In this article,we review the expression levels,related mechanisms and the significance of CA-125 in different liver disease.

Objective To detect the mutations in RECQL4 gene in a Chinese patient with Rothmund- Thomson syndrome (RTS). Methods Blood samples were collected from a sporadic patient with RTS, his unaffected parents and 30 unrelated population-matched controls. DNA was extracted, and all the coding sequences of RECQL4 gene were amplified by PCR. Direct sequencing was performed with the amplicons to detect the possible mutations in these subjects. Results Two mutations, i.e., IVS11-1G > A and 3401 A >T, which resulted in a premature termination codon at amino acid 560, were found in the RECQL4 gene of the patient. His father was heterozygous for IVS11-1G > A, and his mother for 3401 A>T. Meanwhile, neither of the two mutations were observed in 30 unrelated normal control individuals. Conclusion Two mutations, including IVS11-1G>A and 3401 A>T are present in the RECQL4 gene of the sporadic patient with RTS.

Objective To identify the effect of using modified 99 type China hemp service shoes and socks on preventing servicemen from skin superficial fungal infection during the drill.Methods A double-blinded control study was carried on in 2 months test with 16 testees who wore the modified 99 type China hemp service shoes and socks.Every testee was dispensed 1 pair of shoes and 3 pairs of socks.The left socks were produced in different material and way from the right one in each pair.Clinical examination of feet skin primary lesions and fungal test on each individual testee were done at the beginning of this research,as well as in the middle and the end.Results The clinical symptoms of 16 testees' feet skin were obviously relived during the 2 months test.4 of 16 testees claimed that there were more obviously relieving of feet symptoms on left than right.8 of 16 testees which were positive of fungal test at the beginning of the research claimed that their feet symptoms were lessened,and 2 of the above 8 were turned to negative of fungal test after 8 weeks,however the other 6 were positive yet.And the fungi culture was done on these 6 above testees who were still positive on fungal test.2 cases were Trichophyyon gypseum,while other 4 cases were Trichophyyon rubrum.Conclusion The modified 99 type China hemp service shoes and socks can relieve the clinical symptoms and prevent fungal infection that occurs during the drill.

Objective Summarize the lesion characters, procedure results and clinical follow up results of the elderly patients with coronary heart disease who underwent coronary angioplasty Methods 53 cases of coronary heart disease patients undergoing PTCA and stenting were ≥65 years old 35 were male, 18 were female 33 patients were diagnosed acute Q wave myocardial infarction, 2 patients acute non Q wave myocardial infarction, 14 patients unstable angina pectoris, and 4 patients coronary heart disease with severe heart failure PTCA and stenting were performed with conventional method, and temporary pacemakers were used if necessary Heparin was used if target vessel were involved in small vessels or the patients had multivessel diffuse lesions or PTCA was performed in more than one vessel Results Multivessel diffuse severe atherosclerosis was common in elderly patients The lesions were complex, and the procedures were difficult The success rate was 98% and the mortality was 11% during hospitalization 30 patients were follow up in 8 7?5 4 months, during which 11 (36%) patients had angina, 1 (3 5%) patients suffered acute myocardium infarction, 1 (3 5%) patient died of cerebral infarction, and the other 17 patients were asymptomatic Conclusion PTCA for the elderly patients is feasible The lesions in elderly patients with coronary heart disease are complex, the procedures are difficult and the mortality in hospitalization and the recurrent of ischemic chest pain are higher However, if we sufficiently estimate the lesion′s characters, PTCA can be safely performed in the elderly patients, and PTCA is the better method for elderly patients than medicine treatment

At present,there is no unified standards of treatment in elderly advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC),but to elderly patients with higher KPS scores,radiotherapy or chemotherapy alone has gradually become the main treatment measures.The concurrent chemoradiotherapy can benefit to part of the elderly patients,and it is worth further clinical research.Targeted therapy has exactly effect,and the adverse effect is mild,which provides a new treatment model for elderly advanced NSCLC patients.However,the hospital costs are relatively high,which can not be accepted by ordinary family.So targeted drugs and the model of combination treatment can not be applied extensively.

Objective To investigate the prevention and treatment mechanism of liver-smoothing and spleen-srengthening formula on hyperplasia of mammary gland,we study the effects of it on morphology,histology,serum sex hormone and its receptor of rats with hyperplasia of mammary gland.Methods Sixty female Wistar rats(SPF)were randomized into 5 groups:control group,disease model group,the tamoxifen group,small dose of medicine group and large-dose drug group.Estradiol Benzoate and Progesterone were used to establish animal model of breast hyperplasia.Rats in different groups were respectively maintained with Tamoxifen,small and large dose of liver-smoothing and spleen-srengthening formula.Then changes of morphology,histology,serum sex hormone and its receptor were obtained.Results Liver-smoothing and spleen-srengthening formula could reduce the number of breast lobular and the expansion degree of adenovirus catheter.It also narrowed the acinar cavity.In serum of rats with breast hyperplasia,Estradiol(E2)and PRL were declined ;Progesterone(P)and Testosterone(T)were increased;FSH and LH were partly increased.Positive expression degree of ER and PR were inhibited obviously.Conclusion Liver-smoothing and spleen-srengthening formula can reduce not only the content of estrogen receptors(ER)and progesterone receptors(PR)but also their sensitivity to estrogen of rats with breast hyperplasia by regulating the serum sex hormone.Our studies suggest that it can obviously inhibit hyperplasia of mammary gland.
