Objective To observe the safety and effectiveness of inductive chemotheray with lobaplatin plus 5-Fu (LF regimen) and concurrent chemoradiotherapy with lobaplatin for local-regionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients,and investigate the appropriate lobaplatin dose for the concurrent chemoradiotherapy.Methods Newly diagnosed local-regionally advanced NPC patients signed informed consent.The inductive chemotherapy was lobaplatin 30 mg/m2 + 5-Fu 4 g/m2 civ 120 h for 2 cycles every 21 days,then concurrent lobaplatin chemoradiotherapy was conducted.The initial lobaplatin dose for concurrent chemoradiotherapy was 50 mg/m2 with at least 3 cases in every dose level.If 2 of 3 patients presented dose-limiting toxicity (DLT),5 mg/m2 dose decreased for the next level until maximal tolerant dose (MTD) reached.The tumor response was evaluated after inductive chemotherapy,at the end of the chemoradiotherapy,3 months after chemoradiotherapy and 6 months after chemoradiotherapy.Results From Dec 2011 to Apr 2012,11 patients were enrolled in this study.After 2 courses of inductive chemoradiotherapy,CR,PR and SD were observed in 1,8 and 2 patients,respectively.At the end of the chemoradiotherapy and 3 months after chemoradiotherapy,CR and PR were observed in 10 and 1 patients,respectively.Six months after the chemoradiotherapy,all patients were CR.For the patients(3 in each arm) received 50 mg/m2 or 45 mg/m2 lobapaltin concurrent chemoradiotherapy,2 patients in each arm presented DLT.For the 5 patients received 40 mg/m2 lobapaltin concurrent chemoradiotherapy,no patients presented DLT.40 mg/m2 was suggested as the MTD.Inhibition of platelet was the major DLT.Conclusion Inductive chemotherapy with LF regimen and concurrent chemoradiotherapy with lobaplatin is safe and effective for local-regionally advanced NPC patients and the MTD of lobaplatin for the concurrent chemoradiotherapy is 40 mg/m2.Further clinical trial with large sample is expected.

Objective To explore the clinical treatment of procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids (PPH) combined with transrectal Block for rectocele (Block procedure).Methods Eighty-six hospitalized patients with rectocele were divided into two groups according the odevity of month:A group (odd month,PPH combined with Block procedure group,49 cases) and B group [even month,stapled trans-anal rectal resection (STARR),37 cases].The treatment conditions were compared between two groups.Results There were no statistical differences in degree of postoperative pain,healing rate between two groups (P ＞ 0.05).The operating time,postoperative hemorrhage rate,cost of hospitalization,patient satisfaction score and rectocele depth after 1 year in A group were significantly better than those in B group [(25.5 ± 2.8) min vs.(36.8 ± 4.6) rmin,2.0％(1/49) vs.13.5％(5/37),(7 359 ± 580) yuan vs.(10 928 ± 610) yuan,(9.1 ± 0.8) scores vs.(8.2 ± 0.7) scores,(5.02 ± 0.71) mm vs.(9.73 ± 1.31) mm],there were statistical differences (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions PPH combined with Block procedure for rectocele had a significant clinical effect,it is a safe new method with small surgical trauma,a better choice to prevent the recurrence of rectocele,reduces the patients economic pressure obviously.So it is worth to clinical promotion.

A 50?year?old woman presented with intermittent dull pain in the forehead and mild dizziness occasionally after her forehead was subjected to a mild bump accidentally 20 days prior to the presentation, and was diagnosed with angioneurotic headache in a local hospital. After the treatment with oral sibelium tablets, the condition wasn′t relieved obviously. Computed tomography (CT) scan showed multiple localized bone destruction and low?density area in the frontal and bilateral parietal bones with adjacent soft tissue swelling. Magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)revealed equal T1 signals and slightly long T2 signals for multiple nodules in the frontal and bilateral parietal bones, high signals on diffusion?weighted imaging (DWI), obvious enhancement on contrast?enhanced MRI, and linear enhancement in adjacent meninges. Whole?body bone scintigraphy showed multiple increased radionuclide uptake in the skull. Laboratory examination demonstrated that specific antibodies to Treponema pallidum (Tp) were positive, and the serum rapid plasma reagin(RPR)titer was 1∶128. Cerebrospinal fluid(CSF)examination showed normal CSF pressure, nucleated cell counts(8 × 106/L)and glucose level(4.0 mmol/L), slightly high chloride flux(129.1 mmol/L), high protein level(0.9 g/L), high CSF?RPR titer of 1∶16 and presence of specific antibodies to Tp. Histopathological examination revealed hyperemia of adjacent tissues in the cranial osteolytic area, hyperplasia of interstitial fibrous tissue, endothelial cell swelling, and infiltration of inflammatory cells mainly containing plasma cells. The treatment regimen for neurosyphilis was given, and headache was relieved after 1 week of treatment, basically disappeared after 2 weeks, and completely disappeared after 4 weeks, and no similar headache occurred thereafter. Finally, the patient was diagnosed with acquired syphilitic skull osteomyelitis complicated by syphilitic meningitis.

Objective To evaluate the effects of interferon therapy after curative surgical intervention on improving prognosis of patients with hepatitis C-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods We searched randomized clinical trials from 1990 to 2015 on interferon therapy after curative surgical intervention in patients with hepatitis C-related HCC from the Cochrane Library,the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews,MEDLINE and Embase.A Meta-analysis was carried out using Revman 5.Results There were 7 studies included in this research.The results showed that interferon therapy after curative surgical intervention in patients with hepatitis C-related HCC reduced the recurrence rate of HCC at 3 years (RR =0.84,95％ CI 0.73 ～0.97,P ＜0.05).The therapy could not improve the 3-year survival rate in these patients (RR =1.04,95％ CI 0.90 ～ 1.21,P ＞ 0.05).Stratified subgroup analyses showed interferon therapy after liver resection reduced the recurrence rate (RR =0.62,95 ％ CI 0.39 ～ 1.00,P =0.05).For patients with tumors less than 3 cm,interferon therapy reduced the recurrence rate (RR =0.82,95％ CI 0.69 ～ 0.98,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Interferon therapy after curative surgical intervention improved prognosis in patients with hepatitis C-related HCC.

Objective To investigate the effect of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) on intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) expression in rat model with congestive heart failure (CHF). Methods The model of CHF in male Sprague-Dawley rat was established using subcutaneous injection of isoproterenol. The rats were randomized into model group (n = 10),angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) group ( n=10) and IGF- 1 group ( n = 10). The rats injected with saline were used as normal controls (n=10). The haemodynamic parameters of rats in each group were detected. The concentration of plasma angiotensin Ⅱ (Ang Ⅱ ) and expression of ICAM-1 in rat myocardium were determined by radioimmunoassay and immunohistochemistry,respectively. Results Compared with model group, ACEI and IGF-1 could rescue the diversities of hemodynamic parameters. In addition, ACEI and IGF-1 could also significantly down-regulated concentration of plasma Ang Ⅱ and inhibited ICAM-1 expression. Compared with ACEI, IGF-1 more significantly inhibited ICAM-I expression (0. 804 ± 0. 024 vs. 1. 254 ± 0. 059) and down-regulated concentration of plasma AngⅡ [(369.2±65.0) μg/L vs. (384.4±56.2) μg/L]. Conclusions IGF-1 can suppress ICAM-1 expression in rat model with CHF induced by isoproterenol. This effect may be related to inhibiting activation of RAS system.

Objective:Bioinformatics was used to analyze the gene expression profile of renal chromophobe cell carcinoma (RCCC) to find out the key genes of RCCC.Methods:Chromophobe renal cell carcinoma gene chip data GSE15641 and GSE11151 were downloaded from the GEO database. Using R software packages such as " Affy" and " limma" in R software to screen differentially expressed genes, combining with David and STRING online bioinformatics tools to analyze the regulatory network of differentially expressed genes and construct protein-protein interaction (PPI) network, the Hub gene was screened through the Cytohubba plug-in of Cytoscape software.Results:A total of 261 differentially expressed genes were screened, including 194 down-regulated genes and 67 up-regulated genes. Gene enrichment (GO) analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis were performed to explore their biological functions. In GO enrichment analysis, biological processes were mainly enriched in cell secretion, gluconeogenesis and cell proliferation regulation; in cell composition, they were mainly enriched in exosomes, plasma membranes and their components; in molecular function, they were mainly enriched in heparin binding; in KEGG pathway analysis, they were mainly enriched in metabolic pathway, antibody biosynthesis pathway and renin angiotensin system pathway. PPI network was constructed by using online bioinformatics tools. The top 10 Hub genes were screened by using cytohubba plug-in in Cytoscape software, which were pipecolic acid and sarcosine oxidase (PIPOX), hydroxyacid oxidase 2 (HAO2), kynurenine 3-monooxygenase (KMO), solute carrier family 2 member 2 (SLC2A2), formimidoyltransferase cyclodeaminase (FTCD), angiogenin (ANG), APOBEC1 complementation factor (A1CF), aldehyde dehydrogenase 8 family member A1 (ALDH8A1), vitamin D binding protein (GC), histidine rich glycoprotein (HRG).Conclusions:Bioinformatics analysis of differentially expressed genes in renal chromophobe cell carcinoma can effectively explore the interaction information of these differentially expressed genes, and provide new ideas for the treatment of renal chromophobe cell carcinoma.

Thirteen patients with colorectal lesions underwent laparoscopic surgery from January to December 2019. Before surgery, 5.0 ml autogenous blood was injected under colonoscopy into the inferior margin and opposite sides of the lesion for localization. The operation time，success rate，complications，location efficiency and postoperative pathology were evaluated. The autologous blood tattooing was easily applied for all patients without complication. At laparoscopic surgery，the lesions of all patients were clearly visualized except one obese patients with rectal tumors, because the tumor was located below the retroperitoneal fold. No blood diffusion and leakage，and local inflammatory responses were observed. The surgical margins of all samples were tumor negative. Preoperative tattooing with autologous blood is recommended as an easy，safe and economical procedure for colonoscopic surgery in patients with colorectal lesions.

Objective To investigate the function and mechanism of miR-149 in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).Methods The expression of miR-149 was examined by real-time PCR and calculated by 2-△△Ct method. The cell proliferation was analyzed by MTT assay. The cell migration and invasion were shown by the wound healing assay and transwell migration assay, and the expression of E-cadherin was detected by Western blot. Results The expression of miR-149 was higher in NPC cell lines 5-8F and 6-10B than that in normal immortalized nasopharyngeal epithelial NP69. MTT assay showed that miR-149 promoted the proliferation of NPC cell lines. The wound healing assay showed miR-149 promoted the mobility and invasion of NPC cell lines. Inhibition of miR-149 reduced the ability of NPC cell lines to proliferate and invade. miR-149 downregulated the expression of E-cadherin, whereas antagomir which mediated knockdown of miR-149 significantly upregulated the expression of E-cadherin. Conclusion miR-149 might be involved in the invasion and metastasis of NPC through regulation of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT).
