Cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells therapy plays an important role in cancer adjuvant treatment.Researches show that the number of peripheral blood immunocytes will change if patients with cancer accept the treatment of CIK cells.The changes of T cell subsets,regulatory T cells are relatively obvious,which may be one of the standards that can evaluate the curative effect of CIK cells.

Objective To discuss the clinical value of Dimethicone power applied under endoscopy in examination of upper gastrointestinal tract. Methods 800 patients who received common endoscopy examination from Nov. 2014 to Nov. 2015 were recruited into the study and randomly divided into two groups: experimental group and control group. Fifteen minutes before the examination, the experimental group took Dimethicone power 5 g and 30 ml pure water. At the same time, the control group took 30 ml pure water only. According to the clarity of the endoscopic field of vision, the examination results were classified into 4 levels (A, B, C, D), and the inspect time of each patient was recorded. Results In experimental group, endoscopic vision was significantly higher than control group ( <0.05), and the inspect time was significantly shorter than control group ( < 0.05). Conclusion Dimethicone power can significantly improve the clarity of the endoscopic field of vision and alleviate the suffering of patients with short-er inspect time, which can be used as an adjuvant before routine endoscopy examination.

Objective To investigate the related factors of phlebitis caused by PICC and support effective preventive nursing measures. Methods 163 patients diagnosed as malignant tumor who first used peripherally inserted central catheters (PICC) were recruited. Patients were observed for 3 months. According to the diagnostic criterion of infection, 34 patients with phlebitis were divided into the phlebitis group and others were divided into the control group. All patients were investigated for general information survey :sex, age, tumor type, allergic history,location of inserted vein, one-time success rate,activity after catheter, elbow bending,phlebitis occurred time, grade and type. Laboratory markers:WBC,neutrophils,immune parameters, fasting plasma glucose. Trait anxiety inventory (T-AI)was used for assessment of emotional state. Case-control study between groups was carried out. Results The results of univariate analysis showed that location of inserted vein,times of inserting vein,activity of inserted limb,elbow bending,blood sugar level and emotion were associated with phlebitis. Sex, age, tumor type, allergic history, immune function,WBC,neutrophils were not involved with phlebitis. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that PICC through basilica vein was the protective factor. Multiple insertions, more activity of inserted limb,durative anxious emotion were the risk factors of phlebitis. Conclusions Different location of vein,times of inserting vein,activity of inserted limb,elbow bending,high blood glucose level and persistent anxious emotion are the risk factors of phlebitis. Taking effective preventive measures before,during, and after PICC can reduce the incidence of phlebitis.

Aims To synthesize acetylated low molecu-lar weight heparin( ALMWH) and to detect its physico-chemical properties and antineoplastic activity. Meth-ods LMWH was prepared by degradation of UFH with sodium periodate oxidation and sodium borohydride re-duction, then the LMWH was acetylated by acetic an-hydride where N, N′, -dicyclohexylcarbodiimide ( DCC ) and 4-dimethylaminopyridine ( DMAP ) were used as catalysts. X-ray diffraction(XRD)and Differ-ential Scanning Calorimetry ( DSC ) of ALMWH were obtained. The antiproliferative activity and anti-inva-sive activity were determined on MDA-MB-231 and MCE-7 human breast cancer cells. Results XRD a-nalysis showed that the LMWH degraded from UFH and ALMWH synthesized by acetylation of LMWH be-longed to amorphous structure, however, their DSC curves were significantly different. Compared with LM-WH, ALMWH had more powerful capacity for binding water and lowering anticoagulant activity, more signifi-cantly ALMWH exhibited stranger anti-proliferative and anti-invasive activity than LMWH, especially when it was used in low concentrations. Conclusion The syn-thesized ALMWH possesses a low anticoagulant activi-ty, certain anti-proliferative, anti-invasive and anti-metastatic activity. This study provides a basic method for screening of antineoplastic drug with low toxicity.

Objective Artificial atrial septum defect combining pulmonary artery banding to create a model of congenital heart defect with decreased pulmonary blood flow to explore the morphological changes of immature pulmonary vascular. Methods Choose twenty piglets with about one to two-month-old, which are exclusively for experiment used. The piglets were randomly divided into three groups: normal control group (group C, n = 6), Small incisions on the right chest, produced a transient reduction in pulmonary blood; low-medium pulmonary artery stenosis groups ( group T1, n = 7 ) : Did artificial room septostomy creation by self-dilators which were delivered into the surface of the right atrium and controlled Systolic trans pulmonary artery banding pressure (Trans-PABP) at pressure of 20 - 30 mmHg; severe pulmonary artery stenosis groups ( group T2, n = 7): T2 were the same surgical procedures with group T1 ,and controlled Trans-PABP ≥ 30 -50 mmHg. Monitored ultrasound after operation , carried out 64-slice computed tomography scanning after one month, to measure the proximal vessel diameter and TransPABP , after two month surgical exploration on the left chest. When the animals were sacrificed, the heart and lung tissue was cut to measure atrial septal defect, pulmonary artery and the banding diameter. By weihgt elastic fiber and van Cieson staining to observe the morphological pathological changes, three groups took lung tissue with right middle lobe lateral segment about 1.0 cm × 0.8 cm × 0.8cm at the end of surgery and 2-months after operation respectively. Results The models were all successfully in the survival animal of the two test groups. One pig died from tracheal intubation accident in the C group, there was one case died due to bowel obstruction in the T1 group, And there were two cases died result from acute right heart failure and chronic heart failure respectively in T2 group. 64-slice CT angiography showed that BD was significantly lower than the AOD in the two test groups, the proximal pulmonary vascular expansion result from stenosis, distal pulmonary vascular scarce. Histopathology showed that the pulmonary artery inside diameter of T1 and T2 was significantly higher than group C(P ＜0. 05,P ＜ 0.01), and the NAPSC of two experimental groups were significantly lower than group C 2-month after operation( P ＜0.01).Conclusion This type of Piglet model is closer to clinical pathological and physiological ,64-slice spiral CT combined with lung histopathology observed for the evaluation of pulmonary vascular hypoplasia is a reliable method. Tunica media of pulmonary arterioles hypoplasia with the number reducing, with pulmonary artery banding increased,the degree of pulmonary arterioles hypoplasia gradually increased.
