Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of recombinant human endostatin combined with concurrent chemoradiotherapy versus concurrent chemoradiotherapy for advanced non small cell lung cancer ( NSCLC) . Methods Electronic databases including the Cochrane library, PubMed, the Chinese biomedical literature database, China national knowledge internet(,EMbase,VIP and Wanfang database system were searched,until August,2013. The inclusion criteria was efficacy and safety studies of randomized controlled clinical studies in which recombinant human endostatin combined with concurrent chemoradiotherapy was compared with concurrent chemoradiotherapy alone for patients with advanced NSCLC. Cochrane handbook 5. 1. 0 was applied in evaluating the quality of included trials and RevMan 5. 1. 0 software was used for data analysis.Results Five studies including 217 cases of advanced NSCLC were included. The results of the meta-analysis exhibited that compared with concurrent chemoradiotherapy alone, recombinant human endostatin combined with concurrent chemoradiotherapy could increase effective rate [OR=2. 62,95%CI(1. 41,4. 86),P=0. 002]. But there were no significant differences in clinical benefit rate [OR=2. 08,95%CI(0. 92,4. 73),P=0. 08],one year survival rate [OR=1. 18,95%CI(0. 53,2. 66),P=0. 68], improvement in quality of life [OR=1. 57,95%CI(0. 40,6. 07),P=0. 52],rate of leucopenia [OR=1. 25,95%CI(0. 72,2. 17), P=0.43],radioactive esophagitis [OR=1. 16,95%CI(0. 42,3. 21),P=0. 77] and radiation pneumonitis [OR=2. 47,95%CI (0. 34,17. 68),P=0. 37]. Conclusion Compared with concurrent chemoradiotherapy alone,recombinant human endostatin combined with concurrent chemoradiotherapy may be more effective for advanced NSCLC,whereas improvement of life quality and toxicities are similar. For the quality restriction and possible publication bias of the included studies,more high quality randomized controlled trials are required to further verify this conclusion.

Objective To explore the levels of sense of coherence,social support and coping style of permanent colostomy,and explicit the relationships among the three variables.the structural equation model(SEM) was used to investigate the relationship of the three variables in order to provide the theory basis for patients with permanent colostomy. Methods Self designed questionnaire,Sense of coherence scale, Medical Coping Modes Questionnaire and social support Scale were used to investigate 172 permanent colostomy patients from two grade 3 class A hospitals in Harbin. Results The total score of SOC in patients with permanent colostomy was (65.09 ± 11.71) points;The total score of social support in patients with permanent colostomy was (42.60 ± 7.26) points;the three subscales of medical coping modes questionnaire in descending sequence were avoidance, confrontation and acceptance-resignation with (18.53 ± 2.82), (17.37 ± 5.48), (9.49 ± 3.25) points. The abusive social support and coping style were significantly correlated to sense of coherence (P< 0.01 for both). Moreover, sense of coherence can be predicted directly by social support,and predicted indirectly via the mediating effect of coping style. Conclusion Effective measures should be taken to improve social support and via coping style to improve sense of coherence.

In order to enhance the alkaline polygalacturonate lyase (PGL) productivity by Pichia pastoris, we developed a constant cell concentration culture strategy by methanol feeding (called as CCCM culture) used in the continuous cultures. We controlled reasonable cell concentrations in the bioprocess by different strategies of methanol feeding. Using this CCCM culture with DCW 75 g/L, we significantly enhanced the PGL productivity (Qv) and the average specific enzyme production rate (Qx) of PGL to 6.11 U/(mL x h) and 81.5 U/(g x h), increased by 42.1% and 191.2% than the fed-batch culture with high cell density, respectively. The final PGL activity was 441.9 U/mL. Moreover, the extracellular protease concentration is 1.9 mg/L and the cell viability is more than 94% after 120 hour induction. The results show that this new strategy is advantageous in reducing proteolytic degradation and enhancing cell viability.

The long-term presence of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) in the environmental water samples not only affects the life safety of aquatic organisms and disturbs the ecoenvironment, but also poses a serious threat to human health. In this study, amino-functionalized Fe3O4 nanoparticles (Fe3O4-NH2) were firstly prepared by solvothermal method. Subsequently, polyethyleneimine (PEI) with a branched chain structure was successfully grafted onto Fe3O4 nanoparticles by Schiff base reaction in aqueous solution at room temperature using glutaraldehyde as a cross-linking agent, and a recyclable PEI-grafted magnetic nano-sorbent (Fe3O4@PEI) was synthesized and applied for the detection of NSAIDs in the environmental water samples. The compositional properties of Fe3O4@PEI were investigated by different characterization methods and the parameters affecting the extraction of NSAIDs were optimized. Due to high adsorption of Fe3O4@PEI for NSAIDs, the quantitative analysis of four NSAIDs in the environmental water samples, ketoprofen, naproxen, diclofenac and tolfenamic acid, was performed in combination with high-performance liquid chromatography. A good linear relationship between the chromatographic peak area and concentration was observed in the range of 1−500 µg/mL. The recoveries of the samples at three different spiked levels ranged from 85.6% to 107.8%; the intra-day precision was less than 7.8% (n=6); and the inter-day precision was less than 9.5% (n=3). The method is simple, rapid, accurate and reliable, and can be used for the analysis of NSAIDs in the environmental water samples.

Objective To develop a simple and effective method for monitoring cortical ischemia after temporary occlusion of the parent arteries during anterior circulation intracranial aneurysm surgery. Methods Fifty-two patients with anterior circulation aneurysm (58 aneurysms) received craniotomy from April to November 2008, and at the same time,cortical electroencephalograpby (EEG) and scalp EEG were monitored during the surgery.According to the international 10/20 electrode placement system, scalp electrodes were placed on O1, O2, P3, P4, T5, and T6 for monitoring the changes in the depth of anesthesia. A cortical strip electrode was placed on the cortical surface supplied by the artery that was possibly blocked during the operation, which was used to monitor the possible cortical ischemia. For patients who had cortical EEG suppression after the temporary occlusion of the parent arteries Were compared with the changes of scalp EEG. Whether there were ischemic events in the corresponding supply territory after vascular occlusion were observed after surgery. Results Of the 58 aneurysms, 40 aneurysms and 41 major arteries were occluded temporarily. After being occluded temporarily in 19 arteries of 18 patients, cortical EEG changed significantly,while scalp EEG did not change significantly. Only 9 patients had ischemic events in the corresponding supply territories after the occlusion in the cortical EEG significant change group. The changes in the depth of anesthesia had the consistent impact on cortical and scalp EEG. Conelusions Simultaneous monitoring of cortical and scalp EEG is a simple and effective method for monitoring cortical ischemia during anterior circulation intracranial aneurysm surgery, and may effectively identify the effect of anesthesia on EEG.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors for residual pain after percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) for osteoporotic vertebral fractures (OVF).Methods:Retrospectively analyzed were the patients with OVC who had been treated at Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, The First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University by single level PKP from January 2020 to December 2021. They were 40 men and 181 women, with an age of (69.6±8.2) years. By the pain score of visual analogue scale (VAS) on the postoperative day 3, they were assigned into 2 groups: a residual pain group (VAS≥4) and a control group (VAS<4). The general demographics, radiographic and surgical related data of the 2 groups were analyzed by single factor analysis, including their gender, age, bone mineral density, body mass index, glucocorticoid usage, follow-up time, duration of symptoms, fracture location, severity of fracture compression, intravertebral cleft, middle column involvement, thoracolumbar fascia injury, anesthesia method, puncture method, volume of bone cement injected, cement-endplates contact, pattern of cement distribution, cement leakage, vertebral height restoration, preoperative cobb angle and correction of cobb angle. The P<0.1 factors screened were further analyzed by the multivariate logistic regression to determine the final variables. Results:In the present study, 19 patients were assigned into the residual pain group and 202 patients the control group. The univariate analysis showed that body mass index ( P=0.059), intravertebral cleft ( P=0.049) and thoracolumbar fascia injury ( P< 0.001) increased the risk for residual pain. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that thora-columbar fascia injury was an independent risk factor for residual pain ( OR=6.127, 95% CI: 2.240 to 16.755, P<0.001). Conclusion:Thoracolumbar fascia injury is an independent risk factor for residual pain after PKP for OVF.
