Objective:To elucidate the effects of CAFs on the proliferation,migration and invasion of oral cancer cells and those on tumor growth.Potential mechanism was discussed.Methods:CAFs and SCC-9 or CAL-27 were cocultured.The proliferation of oral cancer cells were detected by measuring the level of RFP.A interaction model between CAFs and SCC-9 or CAL-27 were established with Transwell chambers to abserve the effects of CAFs on the migration and invasion of OCCs.The conditioned medium collected from mono-cultured CAFs or SSC-9 cell,and co-culture were subjected to a cytokine antibody array.Volumes of xenografts were obtained and presented.Results:At day 5,significant difference was found in OCC proliferation between OCC-CAFs group and OCC group.The SCC-9 cell number was up to 4.41±0.38 times as many as the initial number in co-culture group and 3.21±0.35 times in SCC-9 group(P<0.05).The proliferation of CAL-27 was similar to that of SCC-9.SCC-9 cells migrated to the bottom in group SCC-9+CAFs were 2.6± 0.42 times as many as group SCC-9(P<0.05).CAL-27 cells migrated to the bottom in group CAL-27+CAFs were 3.11±0.46 times as many as group CAL-27 ( P<0.05 ) .The similar results were found in invasion analysis.OCCs invaded more quickly towards medium derived from co-cultured cells than that from OCCs alone.Three human cytokines(CCL2,CCL5 and IL-8)were significantly upregulated in conditioned medium from co-cultured cells compared with those from CAFs or SSC-9 alone.Six weeks after injection,we observed that SCC-9 mixed with CAFs generated tumors of greater volume than those generated from SCC-9 cells alone.Conclusion:CAFs Promote the Proliferation,Migration,Invasion of oral cancer cells and tumor growth.Cytokines(CCL2,CCL5 and IL-8)may responsible for the bi-ological function change of cancer cells.

Objective To observe the efficacy and adverse reactions of ECF regimen (epirubicin combined with cisplatinum and fluorouracil) and DOF regimen (docetaxel combined with oxaliplation and fluorouracil ) in the treatment of advanced gastric cancer .Methods 68 cases of advanced gastric cancer were randomly divided into the ECF group (30 cases) and the DOF group (38 cases) .The ECF group was treated with epirubicin 50 mg/m2 on 1 d ,cisplatin 20 mg/m2 on 1-3 d and fluorouracil 500 mg/m2 on 1-5 d .The DOF group was treated with docetaxel 75 mg/m2 on 1 d ,oxaliplatin 130 mg/m2 and fluorouracil 500 mg/m2 on 1-5 d . 21 d were as a cycle of treatment .All cases received two cycles of chemotherapy at least .The efficacy and toxicity were evaluated according to the WHO standard .Results All cases were evaluable for the objective response .The overall response rate was 46 .67% in the ECF group and 42 .11% in the DOF group .The major adverse reactions in the two groups were marrow depression , gastrointestinal reaction ,alopecia and neurotoxicity ,etc .The occurrence rate of neurotoxicity in the DOX group was 39 .47% (26/38) ,which was higher than 13 .33(4/30) in the ECF group ,the occurrence rate of nausea and vomiting in the ECF group was 93 .33% (28/30) ,which was higher than 68 .24(26/38) in the DOF group ,the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P<0 .05) .Conclusion Both of the two regimens have the similar effect for treating advanced gastric cancer and the ad‐verse reactions are tolerable .

OBJECTIVETo investigate the clinical applicability and outcomes of the combined radical operation without breaking the lower lip and mandible with one-stage reconstruction using free anterolateral thigh flap for tongue and lingual root carcinoma.

METHODSThe operation with or without breaking lower lip and mandible was performed respectively in 245 patients (experimental group) and 120 patients (control group).

RESULTSRemoval of tumor and neck dissection were conducted successfully in all patients of two groups with no serious postoperative complication. With the follows-up of 6 to 36 months, in the patients of experimental group there was no recurrence for primary sites but 3 cases with neck lymphnode recurrence, the functions of chewing, swallowing and speaking were good, there was no damage to appearance, and no osteoradionecrosis occurred in the lymphnode positive cases after radiotherapy; in the patients of experimental group there was no recurrence for primary sites but 4 cases with neck lymphnode recurrence, the functions of chewing, swallowing and speaking were good, but there was apparent scar in neck and face, and osteoradionecrosis occurred in 11 of lymphnode positive cases.

CONCLUSIONSThe combined radical operation without breaking the lower lip and mandible with one-stage reconstruction using free anterolateral thigh flap is feasible for tongue and lingual root carcinoma (T2-T3), which reduces the risk for osteoradionecrosis in lymphnode positive cases after radiotherapy and keeps good appearance for patients.

Firstly, this article introduced the definition of medical dispute and public remedy. Thereafter, it analyzed the causes of public remedysilence in medical disputes from four perspectives including the self-defect of public remedy, inadequacy of legal construction, lack of trust in public remedy, and the popularity of private remedy. Finally, it pointed out the countermeasures of enhanced legal construction, unimpeded public remedy and striking private remedy to solve the problem of public remedy silence in medical disputes.

Objective To investigate the serum adiponectin levels and TNF-? levels in women with gestational diabetes and to study their clinical significance.Methods Plasma concentration of adiponectin,tumor necrosis factor alpha and correlate parameters were measured in 50 patients with gestational diabetes(GDM)and 36 pregnant women with normal glucose tolerance(NGT).Radio immunoassay was used to measure the adiponectin,TNF-? level was measured by ELISA.Serum insulin level was measured by Electrochemiluminescent immunoassays fasting glucose levels by glucose oxidase method.Results GDM patients had significantly lower concentrations of adiponectin(10.3?(2.4) mg/L) and elevated levels of TNF-?(4.6?(1.5)?g/L) in comparison to NGT women.In GDM group TNF-? level was correlated positively with serum insulin level,glucose level.Concentration of adiponectin was negatively correlated with corresponding parameters.Conclusion Elevated level of TNF-? and decreased adiponectin concentration may not simply reflect maternal adiposity and insulin resistant state,but may contribute to the impaired glucose metabolism during pregnancy and forecast the risk of metabolism syndrome.

Objective To determine the clinical value of pulsed dual-wavelength 595 and 1064 nm laser in treating superficial infantile hemangioma. Methods The treatments were conducted in 260 patients with 270 lesions. The location of the lesions were 41 cases in scalp, 88 in face and neck, 79 in trunk and 62 in arms and legs. All lesions were treated several times with 595 nm (Group 1) and/or 1064 nm (Group 4) multiplex mode until the treatment was finished. The frequency of treatment was one to six times. The interval of the treatment was four weeks. Results The total effective rate was 95.56 %, with atrophic scar (8.15 %) but without severe ulcer. No significance was found as compared Group 1 parameter with Group 4 in formation of atrophic scars (x2 = 1. 870, P＞0.05). Significant difference in the incidence of atrophic scars was found among different location of lesions (x2 = 15. 743, P＜0. 01) : lesion in face had the highest probability. No obvious difference was found between different location of lesion and the frequence of treatment (x2 = 21.164, P＞0.05), and so did with the efficacy (x2 = 11. 597, P＞0.05). The size and the thickness of lesion had significant difference in the time of treatment (x2 = 58. 171, P＜0. 01 and x2 = 11. 583, P＜0.05, respectively).Conclusions 595nm/1064 nm dual-wavelength laser is a safe and effective tool for treating superficial infantile hemangioma. Choice of treatment parameter in the mode depends on the features of vascular lesions.
