BACKGROUND: Cristata L flavonoid is a kind of plant estrin, which possesses multiple physiological function, has no toxicity and adverse effect, and is effective in treating and preventing osteoporosis.OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of cristata L flavonoid on bone morphogenetic protein, urine inorganic salt and content of lysozyme of rats with diabetes mellitus (DM).DESIGN: Randomized grouping design and controlled study.SETTING: Pharmaceutical Laboratory of Xinxiang Medical College.MATERIALS: The experiment was completed in the Xinxiang Medical College from September to December 2003. Totally 24 health male SD rats were randomly divided into three groups: normal control group, diabetes mellitus (DM) group, DM + cristata L flavonoid group with 8 in each group.were injected intraperineally with 60 mg/kg streptozotocin, and 48-72 hours later, blood of rear caudal vein was collected to measure total blood glucose.Rats were determined as DM if the blood glucose was ≥ 16.7 mmol/L; oth erwise, 60 mg/kg streptozotocin was injected once more. After modeling,cristata L flavonoid and rats in normal control group were given the same was measured with atomic absorbency method and content of urine sodium histochemistry of bone morphogenic protein-2 (BMP2) in bone was detected with streptavidin tagged by peroxidase and immunohistochemic expression lysozyme reflected reabsorption function of renal tubule was measured with with t-test. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Comparison between content of calcium, sodium, kalium in urine and lysozyme and immunohistochemic expression of BMP2 10-week intervention later.calcium and sodium in urine in DM model group were obviously higher than those in normal control group, but content of kalium in urine was obviously lower (P ＜ 0.05-0.01). Contents of calcium in urine in DM +cristata L flavonoid group were obvioualy lower than those in DM model group and normal control group were obviously higher than those in DM model group, and content of lysozyme in urine in those groups was obviously lower than that in DM model group (P ＜ 0.05-0.01).CONCLUSION: Expression of BMP2 of DM rats is decreased, but after supplement of cristata L flavonoid compound, the expression is increased.In addition, output of urine calcium and sodium in DM rats is decreased,and reabsorption function of renal tubule is increased.

Objective To evaluate the intraoperative advantage and short-term outcomes of three-dimensional laparoscopic surgery for rectal cancer.Methods The clinical data of patients who underwent radical resection for rectal cancer at Department of Colorectal Surgery,China-Japan Union Hospital of Jilin University from November 2013 to February 2014 were retrospectively analyzed.There were 20 patients undergoing three-dimensional laparoscopic surgery and 26 patients undergoing two-dimensional laparoscopic surgery.The following parameters were compared between the two groups:intraoperative factors,oncologic outcomes,and short-term surgical outcomes.Data were analyzed by SPSS 17.0 software packet,using t and x2 inspection.Results All the operations were perfomed successfully without conversion.Compared with the two-dimensional laparoscopic surgery group,the three-dimensional laparoscopic surgery group had shorter operative time [(97.2 ± 19.3) vs.(114.1 ± 22.6) min,t =2.680,P =0.010],less intraoperative blood loss [(13.5 ± 6.7) vs.(20.1 ± 12.7) ml,t =2.288,P =0.028],less stapler docking times [(1.4 ± 0.6) vs.(2.3 ± 0.8) number of times,t =4.962,P =0.000],earlier removal of urethral catheter [(2.2± 0.6) vs.(2.7 ± 0.8) d,t =2.401,P =0.021].There were no significant differences in the postoperative ventilation time,postoperative hospital stay,number of lymph node dissection (all P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Three-dimensional laparoscopic compared with two-dimensional laparoscopic radical resection for rectal cancer has many advantages,such as shorter operative time,less intraopretive blood loss,high accuracy operation and earlier postoperative urine voiding.

Objective To explore the pain beliefs in acute phase in elderly patients with lung cancer undergoing thoracotomy using qualitative analysis. Methods Using the phenomenological research method, a total of 15 elderly patients with non-small cell lung cancer undergoing thoracotomy from February to May 2017 in the First Hospital of Jilin University were recruited by purposive sampling method. On the 5th day after thoracotomy, semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted to describe the pain beliefs and the data were analyzed by Colaizzi analysis. Results Through the analysis of the data, 4 main themes were summarized:pain cognition, negative emotion, controllability, social and family support. Conclusions There are negative pain beliefs and negative emotion in the acute stage in lung cancer patients after thoracotomy, which provides a theoretical basis for the development of pain care after thoracotomy in elderly patients with lung cancer.

This investigation was made with special reference to the effect of the combined use of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) inhibitor Pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate(PDTC) and Paclitaxel on the expression of Matrix metalloproteinases (MMP-9) and its inhibitor TIMP-1, and on the proliferation and invasion of human breast cancer cell line MCF-7. The MCF-7 cells were treated with PDTC and Paclitaxel. The effect on proliferation was evaluated by MTT assay. The cell cycle was analyzed by flow cytometry. Western blot was used to determine the change of NF-kappaB p65, MMP-9 and TIMP-1 expression in MCF-7 cells after treatment. RT-PCR was used to detect NF-kappaB p65 mRNA expression. The invasion ability of MCF-7 cells was tested by the invasion, migration and cell adhesion assay. The cell growth was significantly slowed down and the cell cycle was arrested at G0/G1 phase after the combined treatment. The expression of NF-kappaB p65 and MMP-9 was down-regulated and the invasion ability of MCF-7 cells was decreased after the combined treatment. In conclusion,PDTC combined with paclitaxel effectively inhibited cell proliferation, induced cell cycle arrest, and decreased cell invasion ability of breast cancer MCF-7 cells. The mechanism may be associated with the inhibiting effect of PDTC on the NF-kappaB-related gene expression.
