Objective To know the effect of cold stress on the artery pressure and the concentration of IL-2, IL-10, IFN-?, TNF-? in the serum of the rabbits. Methods The local white rabbits of China (clean grade) were anesthetized. The mAP (mean artery pressure), mSP (mean systolic pressure), mDP (mean diastolic pressure) and the concentration of IL-2, IL-10, IFN-?, TNF-? were determined at 0 h, 0.25 h, 0.50 h, 0.75 h, 1.00 h, 1.50 h, 2.00 h, 3.00 h, 4.00 h and 6.00 h after cold stress. Results The mAP,mSP and mDP changed undulant with the delay of cold stress,but the whole tendency was descendent. The mAP,mSP and mDP went up to the peak at 1 h,however lower than control. The concentration of IL-2 increased then decreased with the delay of cold stress,the concentration of IL-10 went down then up and the concentration of TNF-?,IFN-? went down gradually. There was a strong correlation between IFN-? and TNF-? (r=0.983 0,P

Neural stem cells which have many characters of high self-renewal, multipotentiality, migration and good histocompatibility could differentiate neurons, astrocyte and oligodendrocyte. Therefore, the research on differentiation mechanisms of neural stem cells should be very important for the therapy of nervous system degenerative diseases and functional recovery of the central nervous system injury. The neural stem cells differentiation mechanisms regulated by the genes and environment were reviewed in the present paper.

Objective:The effect of the linseeds,VE and ethoxyquinoline in feed on the productive performance of the Hailanhong layers and ?-3 PUFA deposition in the yolk of laying eggs was studied. Method:Four hundred and eighty healthy layers of 48 weeks of age were randomly selected. The linseeds,VE and ethoxyquinoline of different levels in diet were fed on these layers. The indices of the productive performance and the fatty acids content of yolk were determined. The regression model of the fatty acids deposition was established. Results:The effect of the linseeds,VE and ethoxyquinoline in feed on the productive performance was slight. The most deposition of ?-3 PUFA was found by adding linseeds 15%,VE 0.17g/kg feed without ethoxyquinoline. Conclusion:The deposition of ?-3 PUFA in eggs could be regulated by controlling the proportion of linseeds and VE in feed with no effect on productive performance of layers.

Objective To analyze the relationship between the clinical features of hepatoblastoma and serum alpha-fetoprotein level.Methods We did a retrospective study in 74 cases into the relationship of clinical stages,treatment,prognosis,and AFP value in hepatoblastoma.Results In Stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ patients,the average AFP was (36 333 ± 13 782) ng/ml and in Stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ,the average AFP was (78 346 ± 27 956) ng/ml,P ＜ 0.05.68 patients received preoperative chemotherapy with alpha-fetoprotein determinations before and after chemotherapy respectively.In 44 cases AFP decreased ＞ 50％ after chemotherapy,and in 20 cases AFP declined ＞90％,while in 13 cases AFP increased after chemotherapy.15 cases had serum AFP measured on the first postoperative day,among them 10 cases had a ＞ 50％ AFP decline,3 cases had a ＜ 50％ AFP decline,while in 2 cases AFP value increased.52 cases were postoperatively followed-up,with overall 3 year-survival rate of 86.5％ ; 7 cases recurred,4 died.The average preop AFP level in 7 recurred cases was (27 060 ± 3 569) ng/ml,while the average preop AFP level in those of 3-year recurrence-free was (29 865 ± 5 867) ng/ml,P ＞ 0.05.Only 57％ tumor recurred cases had back to normal AFP level within one month postop,while 89％ long term survivals reported normal range of AFP during that period,P ＜ 0.05.Conclusions Serum AFP level in patients with hepatoblastoma is related to the course of disease.It can be used to estimate the effect of clinical chemotherapy.The speed of alpha-fetoprotein decline postop can be used as an indicator of prognosis.The postoperative normal AFP level within 4 weeks predicts a favorable prognosis.

Objective To understand the relationship between dietary patterns and breast cancer and to provide a possible scientific basis for breast cancer prevention,we performed a meta-analysis in order to evaluate the current relevant literature.Method Meta-analysis was used to pool the effect of vegetable,fruit,fish and soybean dietary patterns on the risk of breast cancer.The breast cancer risk of the highest categories compared to the lowest categories of such dietary patterns was combined using fixed effect model.Searching the database (Chinese databases included CQVIP,WANFANG medicine online,CNKI and SinoMED,and English databases included PubMed,Embase,Cochrane database,Medline and Google Scholar) for articles published between January 1997 and June 2014.All statistical analyses were performed using the Stata 11.0.Result Twelve cohort studies involving 623 536 participants and 19 707 patients with brcast cancer were found to be eligible.Our results indicate that a reasonably healthy dietary pattern (which is characterized by a high consumption of vegetables,fruit,fish and soybean) is beneficial for the prevention of breast cancer.Compared to the lowest categories of such dietary patterns,relative risk (RR) of the highest categories is 0.86 (95％ CI 0.80-0.92).Conclusion A reasonably healthy dietary pattern (which is characterized by a high consumption of vegetables,fruit,fish and soybean) is beneficial for the prevention of breast cancer.

Neuroblastoma(NB)is the most common solid extracranial tumor of children,which is obviously heterogenous in the positions,histopathological features,and biological characteristics. One of the most intractable issues in the current clinical treatment is the poor prognosis in high - risk and advanced stage of NB. In recent years,numerous studies have been conducted on molecular biological mechanisms of NB. Researches demonstrate that tumorigenesis is related to various factors,including chromosome,oncogene,and antioncogene abnormalities;carcinogenesis related genes (involving cell proliferation,apoptosis,angiogenesis,chemoresistance and intracellular signal transduction system)ab-normalities. Some specific information(such as chromosome 1p status,MYCN expression,and DNA ploidy)has become the important basis for judging prognosis and grouping the patients by risks. Meanwhile,there are still many discovered NB - related molecular biological mechanisms which are not yet included in the risk stratification system. Further development of targeted drugs for those molecules may be of great significance in increasing the survival rate of patients and improving the prognosis.

Objective:To analyze the influencing factors of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) in children with pancreatic tumors after surgery.Methods:The clinical data of 123 children undergoing surgery for pancreatic tumor in Beijing Children's Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2007 to March 2020 were retrospectively analyzed, including 39 males and 84 females, with a median age of 9.8 years (6.7 to 11.8). Patients without pancreatic fistula and with biochemical leakage were included in control group ( n=95), while patients with grade B and C pancreatic fistula were divided into CR-POPF group ( n=28). The independent influencing factors of CR-POPF were analyzed by univariate and multivariate logistic regression. Results:Among 123 children, 28 cases (22.8%) developed CR-POPF, including 24 cases (85.7%, 24/28) of grade B pancreatic fistula and 4 cases (14.3%, 4/28) of grade C pancreatic fistula. There were significant differences between CR-POPF and control groups in the age > 8 years and 4 months, tumor location, operation time >390 min and procedures (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed an increased risk of CR-POPF in children aged > 8 years and 4 months ( OR=8.226, 95% CI: 1.813-37.333, P=0.006) and undergoing duodenum-preserving pancreatic head resection (DPPHR) ( OR=3.353, 95% CI: 1.282-8.767, P=0.014). Conclusion:Age>8 years and 4 months and DPPHR are independent risk factors for CR-POPF in children with pancreatic tumors after surgery.

Objective To analyze the short-term complications and long-term outcomes of spleenpreserving distal pancreatectomy (SPDP) in pediatric pancreatic tumors.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 43 patients with tumors of the body and tail of the pancreas in Beijing Children's Hospital from Jan 2007 to Jan 2018.Results There were 17 boys (39.53％) and26girls (60.47％),with a median age of 123 (80,141) months.The median maximum diameter of primary tumor was 7.60 cm.Diagnoses included solid pseudopapillary tumor (n =28),pancreatoblastoma (n =10),neuroendocrine tumor (n =4),and pancreatic cyst (n =1).Two cases (4.65％) received tumor enucleation,4 cases (9.30％) did distal pancreatectomy plus splenectomy,and 37 cases (86.05％) did SPDP.16 cases (37.21％) had short-term complications,including pancreatic fistula (n =13),delayed gastric emptying (n =3),abdominal infection (n =7) and postoperative bleeding (n =2).After a median follow-up of 46 (23,71) months,38 cases (88.37％) were disease-free;two cases (4.65％) with tumor recurrence;one case of pancreatoblastoma died of tumor recurrence.Two cases lost to follow-up.Three patients had long-term complications,including chronic fatty diarrhea (n =2) and hypoglycemia (n =1).Three patients underwent second operation for recurrent tumor (one pancreatoblastoma and two solid pseudopapillary tumor).Conclusions SPDP is safe and effective in the treatment of tumors of the body and tail of the pancreas in children.

Objective To improve substantially the prediction accuracy of histopathology subgroup through combined analysis of clinical and biological features,and accordingly build a decision tree to predict the histopathology subgroup in intermediate and high - risk neuroblastoma. Methods A total of 62 intermediate and high - risk neuro-blastoma patients were included retrospectively in this study,who received chemotherapy and surgery at Beijing Chil-dren's Hospital (BCH),Capital Medical University between January 2015 and January 2017. The fin-dings of urinary vanillylmandelic acid (VMA),and homovanillic acid (HVA),serum neuron - specific enolase (NSE),lactate dehy-drogenase (LDH)and ferritin,ultrasound,CT,MRI,positron emission tomography - computed tomography (PET -CT),bone marrow aspiration and biopsy,MYCN gene,and histopathology were collected and analyzed retrospectively. Statistical analysis was performed by using SAS 9. 4. Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were con-ducted to select potentially useful characteristics for prediction. Based on the results of Logistic regression analysis,a classification tree was developed to predict histopathology subgroup. Results To identify the characteristics related to histopathology,tumor markers and six clinico - pathologic factors were evaluated by univariate analysis. The results showed that unfavorable histopathology(UH)was more frequently associated with bone marrow metastasis,older age,as well as higher serum NSE,ferritin and LDH levels. The result of multivariate analysis showed that age and NSE were significant independent predictors of histopathology. The adjusted odds ratio(OR)of NSE and age was 33. 2 and 13. 0, respectively. The area under the receiver - operating - characteristic (AUC)of the prediction mo-del was 0. 889. The sensitivity and specificity were 91. 90％ and 76. 00％,respectively. Furthermore,to provide a visua-lization of the sig-nificant predictors found by Logistic regression analysis,a decision tree was developed for predicating of histopathology. Conclusions Age and NSE are significant independent predictors of histopathology subgroup. The decision tree based on age and NSE can help to predict the histopathology subgroup in intermediate and high - risk neuroblastoma effective-ly.
