1.Advancement of TREM-1
International Journal of Pediatrics 2012;39(2):191-195
Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 ( TREM-1 ) is one of immunoglobulin superfamilies found recently.TREM-1 is a crucial molecule for the triggering and amplification of inflammatory response and promote the reduction of in anti-inflammatory factor by crosslinking reaction with its ligand after being activated,or increasing the level of transcription factor.This study shows that TREM-1 may be claimed as a marker of infection,and the blockade of TREM-1 may be a new approach to inflammatory diseases.This study summarizes its structure,signal transduction,expression,accommodation and clinical application.
2.Models of end-stage liver disease in evaluating the prognosis of cirrhosis patients after endoscopic injection sclerotherapy
Chinese Journal of Postgraduates of Medicine 2010;33(7):36-39
Objective To evaluate CTP,MELD,MELD-AS,MELD-Na,i-MELD and MESO in prognosis of cirrhosis patients who underwent endoscopic injection sclerotherapy (EIS). Methods Seventy-eight cirrhosis patients with integral clinical and follow-up data were enrolled into the study. The area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC) was used to compare these six models in predicting mortality risk. The optimal threshold of them to determine the prognostic death risk was calculated by ROC curves. Results Eight patients died within half one year, 11 patients died within the first year. There was no significant difference in gender and age between the survival and death groups. The AUC of the six models higher than 0.800 were. that, 6-month: MELD-AS (0.837), MESO (0.830), MELD (0.830) ; 12-month: MELD (0.822),MELD-AS (0.821),MESO (0.814). Conclusions MELD-AS,MESO,MELD and so on are all accurate predictive systems for 6-month and 12-month of patients who underwent EIS. The value of them are very important in the selection of patients for EIS, and have a certain clinical significance.

Chinese Journal of Postgraduates of Medicine 2010;33(16):23-25
Objective To investigate the relationship between the serum levels of CEA,cAl25,CA19-9 and clinical pathological characteristics in gastric cancel patients.Method The serum levels of CEA,CA125 and CA19-9 in 107 gastric cancer patients before the surgery were detected by electrochemiluminescence immunoassay.Results The preoperative seurm levels of CEA,CA125 and CA19-9 were not correlated with sex,age and the location of the tumor.The serum level of CEA,CA125 and CA19-9 in patients with lymph node metastasis were higher than those in patients without lymph node metastasis.The serum levels of CEA,CA125 and CA19-9 were positively correlated with the depth of tumor invasion and the size of the tumor.The serum levels of CA125 were correlated with the degrees of differentiation.Thehigher the CA125 levels,the lower the degrees of differentiation.But the levels of CEA and CA19-9 were not correlated with differentiation.There were positive.correlations among the serum levels of CEA,CA125 and CA19-9.The correlation coefficient of CA125 and CA19-9 was 0.623(P<0.01),CA125 and CEA was 0.572(P<0.01),CA19-9 and CEA was 0.412(P<0.01).Conclusions The serum levels of CEA,CA125 and CA19-9 in gastric cancer patients are significantly related with the size of the tumor,the depta of tumor invasion and lymph node metastasis.The preoperative serum levels of CEA,CA125 and CA19-9 can provide some reference for formulating the treatment of the gastric cancer patients.

Objective To evaluate the effective of emergent endoscopic injection sclerotherapy ( EIS) for lethal bleeding from esophagogastric varices. Methods In this study, endoscopic injection of 5% sodium morrhuate was used to control esophagogastric variceal bleeding in 176 patients. In all 209 cases, 181 cases suffered from acute lethal bleeding from esophagogastric varices received endoscopic variceal sclerotherapy under the modified Senstaken-Blakemore tube compression. Results The exact bleeding site at the first procedure could be visualized in 166(94. 3% ) patients. The effective rate of EIS was 96. 2% . Multiple procedures were required in the 21 cases of relapsed bleeding. Complications of EIS occurred in 15 cases (8. 5% ) , of which 3(1. 7% ) died. Conclusion Endoscopic injection sclerotherapy under the modified Senstaken-Blakemore tube compression is relatively safe and effective procedure in the treatment of lethal bleeding from esophagogastric varices.

Objective:To study the changes of endothelin-1(ET-1) and malondialdehyde (MDA) in Kawasaki disease (KD) and to probe the relationship between the changes of ET-1, MDA and coronary artery pathological changes. Methods: KD group included 42 patients ( male 25, female 17), with a mean age of (3.25?0.75) years old; control group included 30 normal children (male 19, female 11), with a mean age of (3.58?0.55) years old. Serum contents of ET-1 and MDA were measured by radioimmunology and modified thiabarbituricaid(TBA) method in 2 groups, and the inner diameters of coronary artery and aorta were measured by color echocardiography. KD group was subdivided into dilated-coronary artery group and undilated group for comparison.Results: Serum contents of ET-1 and MDA in KD group were apparently higher than those in control group (-[76.63?18.36-] vs -[41.55?16.68-] pg/ml and -[3.18?0.60-] vs -[1.52?0.24-] ?mol/L,respectively;P

To review the research of block copolymer micelles as delivery system for poorly soluble(antineoplastic) carrier over the last 10 years,including the composition,preparation methods and factors which influence the loading efficiency,physicochemical properties,and targeting characteristics of block copolymer micelles.Block copolymer micelles are self-assembled structures formed from amphiphilic block copolymers by dispersing in aqueous media.The hydrophilic blocks of the copolymer form the outer shell of the micelle,while the hydrophobic blocks form the inner core,and the proper coreshell micellar architecture was constituted.Block copolymer micelles have a whole set of unique properties,such as small sizes,narrow particle size distribution,high drug loading capacities,and available disposition characteristics in the body.Block copolymer micelles have been found as promising drug carriers due to making poorly soluble antineoplastic lysis,toxicities and side effects decrease,bioavailability increase,and targeting the drugs to specific sites in a passive way or attaching ligands in an active way,which can be specifically(recognized) by receptors onto the surface of copolymers.

Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy of remissive stage-reinforcing and acute stage-reducing acupuncture for treating apoplectic myospasm. Methods: Sixty patients with apoplectic hemiplegia were randomly divided into a treatment group of 30 cases and a control group of 30 cases. The treatment group was treated by remissive stage-reinforcing and acute stage-reducing acupuncture and the control group by modern rehabilitation training. Before and after treatment, the degree of spasm, the level of motor function and ability for daily life were evaluated by modified Ashwordth spasm grading, Brunnstrom grading and Barthel index now often used in the rehabilitation field. Results: Remissive stage-reinforcing and acute stage-reducingacupuncture was superior to modern rehabilitation training in relieving apoplectic myospasm. Conclusion: Remissive stage-reinforcing and acute stage-reducingacupuncture has a unique advantage in relieving spasm.

Objective To evaluate the capability of model for end-stage liver disease (MELD)combined with serum sodium (MELD- Na,MELDNa and MESO scores) in predicting the prognosis of patients with decompensated liver cirrhosis in 6 and 12 months.Methods One hundred and nineteen patients with decompensated liver cirrhosis and completed follow-up data were retrospectively studied.The MELD,MELD- Na,MELDNa and MESO scores were calculated according to the clinical data of each patient.Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and the area under the curve (AUC) was used to measure the values of the four models in predicting the 6 and 12 months survival,and Z-test was used to compare their predictive values.Results MELD,MELD-Na,MELDNa and MESO scores were significantly different between patients who survived and those who died within 6 and 12 months follow-up.The AUC for the MELD- Na,MELDNa and MESO scores were all more than 0.8 in predicting 6 and 12 months survival.However the differences of the AUC between the MELD score and MELD-Na,MELDNa,MESO scores were not significant in predicting 6 and 12 months survival.Conclusion The model for MELD combined with serum sodium can accurately predict the prognosis of patients with decompensated liver cirrhosis in 6 and 12 months,while these scores are not superior to MELD score.
