Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of continuous intravenous pralidoxime chloride infusion in acute organophosphorus pesticide poisoning(AOPP).Methods The patients with severe AOPP were randomly divided into 3 groups:(1)group 1(n =51)received a bolus injection of pralidoxime chloride 2.Og followed by continuous intravenous infusion at 0.25 g/h.(2)group 2(n = 51)received a bolus injection of pralidoxime 2.Og followed by continuous intravenous infusion at 0.5g/h.(3)group 3(n = 50)received intravenous drip of pralidoxime 2.Og for 3 times a day.Efficacy was compared among 3 groups on the basis of time to reach atropinization,recovery of cholinesterase activity .cumulative amount of atropine,incidence of recurrence of pesticide poisoning,intermediate syndrome,and hospitalization days,etc.Results Efficacy in patients receiving continuous intravenous therapy was significantly different from the third group.But there was no significant difference in efficacy between the first and second groups.Conclusion The patients with AOPP can be effectively treated by a loading dose followed with continous intravenous pralidoxime chloride infusion.

Objective To study changes of telomerase activity in transitional cell carcinoma after intravesical instillation of Serratia Marcescens . Methods TRAP-PCR and TRAP-sliver staining were used to detect telomerase activity in 20 patients with TCC after intravesical instillation of Serratia Marcescens . Results Positive rate of telomerase activity detection in TCC patients after intravesical instillation of Serratia Marcescens was 50%(10/20),significantly lowed than before the intravesical instillation (90%,18/20), P

Objective To evaluate if the enteral nutrition have effect on the immune function and in- flammatory reaction after operating about gastric carcinoma.Methods 58 postoperative patients suffering from stomach cancer and colon cancer were randomly divided into the EN group and the TPN group.On the first postoperative day,nutrition fibre were given via nasal intestinal tube,increasing the capacity and drop- ping speed day by day until patients can eat liquid diet.While patients in the TPN group didn't eat anything until enterokinesia completely recovered.Observing on preoperative day 1 and on postoperative day 3 and day 8 respectively to check IgA,IgG,IgM,C3,C4,CRP,LYM,LYM%,TP,ALB,PA.Results The results showed that on the postoperative day 8,the target ascension extent was higher than that in the PN group.The statistical significance was very obvious(P

Objective The purpose of this study was to determine the value of K-ras mutation in DNA extracted from the plasma as clinical indicator of colorectal cancer. Methods Point mutation at codon 12 of K-ras gene was assayed by polymerase chain reaction of sequence-specific primers in DNA extracted from the plasma and tumors from 32 patients with colorectal cancer. The mutation was further confirmed by dideoxy-mediated chain-termination method of DNA sequencing. Results Fourteen patients (44%) had a codon 12 K-ras mutation within their primary tumors and identical mutations were found in the plasma DNA of 13 patients (93%). Mutant DNA was not detected in the plasma specimens of 18 patients whose tumors tested negative for K-ras alterations or in 5 healthy control subjects. Conclusion Preliminary results suggest the detection of K-ras mutations in circulating DNA extracted from the plasma specimens may have some clinical uti- lity in the detection of colorectal cancer.

To study the expression and significance of CD44 splice variant V6 in squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue. The expression levels of CD44v6 protein were determined immunohistochemically in 40 squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue specimens (24 non metastatic primary tumors and 16 metastatic lymph nodes), 12 squamous cell papilloma and 9 normal tongue mucosa using murine exon V6 specific monoclonal antibody. The CD44v6 overexpression was detectable in 29 of 40 squamous carcinoma of the tongue, in 2 of 12 squamous cell papilloma, in 0 of 9 mormal mucosa, P

OBJECTIVETo compare clinical outcomes of bilateral transpedicular balloon kyphoplasty for the treatment of ordinary osteoporotic vertebral compressive fracture (OVCF) and severe osteoporotic vertebral compressive fracture.

METHODSFrom Junary 2009 to Febuary 2011, 60 patients (70 vertebrae) with osteoporotic vertebral compressive fracture were included. All patients were treated by bilateral transpedicular balloon kyphoplasty combined with postural reduction, including 10 males and 50 females aged from 59 to 90 years old with an average of 72.1 years old. In ordinary osteoporotic vertebral compressive fracture group, there were 38 patients (44 vertebrae) including 7 males and 31 females aged from 59 to 87 years old with an average of (71.8±6.1) years old. There were 6 patients with two vertebral fractures, 1 vertebra in T9, 5 vertebrae in T10, 7 vertebrae in T11, 13 vertebrae in T12, 9 vertebrae in L1, 4 vertebrae in L2, 4 vertebrae in L3, 1 vertebra in L4. While in severe osteoporotic vertebral compressive fracture group, there were 22 patients (26 vertebrae) including 3 males and 19 females aged from 63 to 90 years old with an average of (72.6±7.2) years old. There were 4 patients with two vertebral fractures, 1 vertebra in T9, 2 vertebrae in T10, 3 vertebrae in T11, 9 vertebrae in T12, 6 vertebrae in L1, 3 vertebrae in L2, 2 vertebrae in L3. Operative time, volume of bone cement injection, and vertebral height and changes of Cobb angle before and after operation were observed and compared. Postoperative average recovery rate of vertebral height and correct degree of Cobb angle were caculated and compared, VAS scoring were used to evaluate therapeutic effect.

RESULTSAll operations were completed sucessfully, and pain were relieved at 72 h after operation. All patients were followed up from 6 to 13 months with an average of 10.1 months. Postoperative vertebral height, Cobb angle and VAS score were improved better than that of before operation (P<0.05). Operative time in ordinary group was shorter than severe group, while volume of bone cement injection was more than that of severe group. Average recovery rate of vertebral height and correct degree of Cobb angle in ordinarty group was better than that of in severe group (P<0.05). There was no significant differences between two groups in VAS scores before and after operation (P> 0.05). Three cases (3 vertebrae) ocurred bone cement leakage in ordinarty group, while 5 cases (5 vertebrae) ocurred bone cement leakage in severe group, and there was no meaning between two groups (P>0.05).

CONCLUSIONKyphoplasty could receive satisfied curative effect in treating ordinary and servere patients with osteoporotic vertebral compressive fracture, but recovery of vertebral height and correct degree of Cobb angle in ordinary gourp was better than that of in servere group.

Purpose:To study the effect of inhibition of telomerase activity and cell cycle by transcriptase telomerase inhibitors (3′ azido 3′ deoxythymidine, AZT) on squamous cell carcinoma of tongue in vitro.Methods:Human squmous cell carcinoma of tongue cell line Tca8113 was used as target cell. Telomerase activity was determined by TRAP PCR ELISA in untreated and treated Tca8113 by AZT, cell cycle phases were analyzed by flow cytometry. Results:Telomerase activity of Tca8113 was significantly inhibited when treated with AZT, and the effect of inhibition was dose dependant (rate of telomerase activity treated with AZT in 0.3, 0.6, 1.0, 1.5mol 10 -1 was 0.69 0.03, 0.61 0.08, 0.53 0.11, 0.50 0.02 respectively, rate of telomerase activity treated without AZT was 0.76 0.06). Cell cycle of treated Tca8113 was changed with marked increase in G 2 /M phase compared with untreated Tca8113 (62.8% vs 19.7%, P

Objective To study the influence of different anticoagulant tube of blood for blood plasma total homocysteine (tHcy) . Methods Six healthy subjects were selected, then the fasting venous blood samples were collected with EDTA-2k tube,sodium citrate tube and lithium heparin tube, respectively. The blood samples were kept under different conditions. The concentrations of tHcy were determined by quantitative HPLC method and the data were analyzed using SPSS17.0 software. Results Under the conditions of 4℃placed for 2 h, 4 h, 7 h, and- 20 ℃ placed for 1 d, 3 d, 5 d after separating plasma, the concentrations of plasma tHcy in different anticoagulant tubes were no statistical difference. In addition, after placing the whole blood at 4℃for 2 h, 4 h, 7 h, the concentrations of plasma tHcy of separated plasma in different anticoagulant tubes were no statistical differences. Conclusion There are no significant differences in determination of the concentration of plasma tHcy when using EDTA-2k tube,sodium citrate tube and lithium heparin tube sampling blood.
