Objective To investigate the effect of continuous blood purification(CBP) in the patients with severe acute pancreatitis(SAP). Methods Twenty-six patients with severe acute pancreatitis were divided into the control group and the observation group randomly. Fourteen cases in the control group were given conventional treatment only, 12 cases in CBP group were given continuous blood purification as well as the conventional treatment. The APACHE Ⅱ score and CRP of pre- and intra-treatment at the 2nd and 5th day were observed in the two groups. The duration of mechanical ventilation, the duration of ICU stay, the mortality of hospital were observed as well. Results The APACHE Ⅱ score and CRP of the second day and the fifth day of intra-treatment in the control group were 1.61±3.00,10.76±4.30, (149.71±60.06) mg/L and (101.21±33.98) mg/L, respectively, which were significantly different to those of (8.20±1.87) mg/L, (6.19±1.49) mg/L, (109.17±23.91) mg/L,(70.83±25.45)mg/L in the CBP group(P＜0.05). The duration of mechanical ventilation,the duration of ICU stay and the mortality of hospital were (13.29 ± 6.23) d, (16.00 ± 6.86) d, 21.43% in the control group, which were significantly lower than those of (8.00 ±5.27)d,(10.33 ±4.81)d,8.33% in the other group (P ＜0.05).Conclusions CBP is an effective method for the patients with severe acute pancreatitis to shorten the duration of mechanical ventilation and the ICU stay,and decrease the mortality of hospital.

The pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy (DR) is more complex. For the upstream of traditional pathogenesis, to looking for unifying mechanism theory which proposed in foundation of common promoters and the latest view of DR may be the result of chronic inflammation. Both of them provide the basic and clinical theraby of DR with new direction. Therefore, there are many related issuess till needs to intensive study.

Local recurrence and distant metastasis is the major factor of impacting long-term survival for patients with esophageal carcinoma after radical resection. Postoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy is expected to reduce the rate of local recurrence and distant metastasis, but views for the value of postoperative radiochemotherapy were inconsistent in the past. In recent years, scholars have performed much more clinical studies on postoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy and found that the combined postoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy after surgery significantly reduces the recurrence rate and distant metastasis rate and can enhance the survival of the patients.

Objective:To investigate the association between anxiety and the change of humoral immune functions and its correlation with HLA-DQB1 polymorphisms.Methods:Total 31 resident doctors were selected randomly and tested by State-Trait Anxiety Inventory(STAI).IgG,IgA,IgM,complement C3 and complement C4 were detected with BECKMAN array360 system;HLA-DQB1*02、*03、*04、*05 and*06 alleles were individually amplified by polymerase chain reaction(PCR)using exon2 group-specific primers.The correlation between immune function and HLA-DQB1 polgmorphisms were investigated.Results:Statistical analysis showed that there was positive correlation with State Anxiety (Ta) and complement C3,either Trait Anxiety (Tc) and complement C3.There was significant difference between HLA-DQB1*02 positive and negative in Ta (P＜0.05),while no difference in complement C3(P＞0.05).There was significant difference between HLA-DQB1*04 positive and negative in Ta and Tc(P＜0.05),while no difference in complement C3(P＞0.05).Conclusion:Anxiety could change some humoral immune functions and this is related with HLA-DQB1 polymorphism.

The present study was aimed at the optimal solution of the main muscular force distribution in the lower extremity during standing balance of human. The movement musculoskeletal system of lower extremity was simplified to a physical model with 3 joints and 9 muscles. Then on the basis of this model, an optimum mathematical model was built up to solve the problem of redundant muscle forces. Particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is used to calculate the single objective and multi-objective problem respectively. The numerical results indicated that the multi-objective optimization could be more reasonable to obtain the distribution and variation of the 9 muscular forces. Finally, the coordination of each muscle group during maintaining standing balance under the passive movement was qualitatively analyzed using the simulation results obtained.

Metastasis to liver is the most happened distant metastasis and is the leading cause of death in patients with colorectal cancer.Complete surgical resection of liver metastases from colorectal cancer is major curative method for resectable metasrases.Other methods such as chemotherapy, targeted therapy, hepatic ar-tery intervention, radiotherapy, radiofrequenly ablation or cryo-ablation should be considered.Both systemic and local treatment are.important for liver metastasis from colorectal cancer.

Objective We discussed the optimal method for intestinal preparation before colonoscopy examination in order to increase the success rate of intestinal examination and reduce the incidence of adverse effect. Methods We divided 120 patients who were to undergo colonoscopy examination into group A, B and C with 40 cases in each group. Group A received oral magensium sulfate 100ml and 6000ml water after that on the morning of the examination. Group B received oral magensium sulfate 50ml and 2000ml in the evening before the examination, oral magensium sulfate 50ml and 400ml water on the morning of the examination. Group C was given oral magensium sulfate 100ml and 4000～5000 water at the same time. Group A and B took part in appropriate activity and were given health education. The effect of intestinal preparation was compared between the three groups. Results The cleaning degree of group B was better than those of the other two groups (P<0.05). The adverse effect of group B was less than that of group C (P<0.01). Conclusions Oral intake of magensium sulfate in the evening before and on the morning of the examination for intestinal preparation could increase the cleaning degree of intestine, facilitate the observation of disease part and lessen adverse effect. It gave satisfying examination results and made patients satisfied.

AIM　To study the effects of vitamin E succinate (VES) on the cell growth and the DNA synthesis of human gastric carcinoma cell (SGC-7901). METHODS　The growth curve was determined with counting viable cell numbers. The colony formations were counted with Giemsa dye staining. The cell cycle was analyzed using flow cytometry (FCM) and the DNA synthesis was observed with the 3H-TdR incorporation method. RESULTS　VES could inhibit the growth and colony formation of SGC-7901 cells. Growth curve display：after SGC-7901 cells were treated with 5 mg*L-1、10 mg*L-1 and 20 mg*L-1 VES for seven days, the inhibition rate are 41.2%、98.3% and 100%, respectively. The colony formation of SGC-7901 cell at 24 h was inhibited 6.7%、50.4%、87.2%, and at 48 h was 24.7%、73.4%、100%, respectively. FCM analysis revealed that VES could decrease the percentage of cells in G2-M phase after treated 48 h in a dose-dependent manner, while increase the percentage of cells in S pheise. The assays of 3H-TdR incorporation into DNA showed obvious inhibition dose-dependently after exposure to VES for 48 h. CONCLUSION　VES could inhibit gastric carcinoma cell growth by arresting DNA synthesis in vitro.

To summarize Professor LIU Feng-bin's clinical experience and theoretical thoughts on chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG), the study group designed a retrospective study on his case series and expert interview. First of all, the data of CAG patients treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine between 2009 and 2013, e. g. herbs, diseases, syndrome type, prescription amount and number of herbs, was collected and processed. The statistical description and binary logistic regression were used to determined the syndrome type, initial basic remedy and modification. During the statistics, a complete and sub-group analysis was performed simultaneously. After the expert interview, the syndrome type and medication were finalized. As a result, a total of 228 CAG patients aged at (50.30 ± 10.18) were collected, including 151 males (66.23%). Of them, the TCM diagnosis and syndrome type were extracted from the information of 157 patients, including 115 cases with gastric stuffiness, 23 cases with gastric pain, 19 missing cases, 2 cases with spleen-stomach weakness syndrome, 57 cases with spleen deficiency and dampness-heat syndrome, 18 cases with spleen-stomach disharmony syndrome, 23 cases with syndrome of liver depression syndrome, 21 cases with liver qi invading stomach syndrome and 26 qi and yin deficiency syndrome, respectively. All of the 228 patients used totally 104 herbs, while the subgroups with 157 patients used 94 herbs. The most frequently used 15 herbs used in each groups were analyzed to determine the initial basic remedy and modification. Subsequently, based on the information of the sub-groups with 157 patients, with the syndrome type as the dependent variable, the logistic regression analysis was made on the most frequently used 32 herbs, in order to determined the modification in herbs for different syndrome types. After experts reviewed and modified, they believed the main causes of CAG were dietary irregularities, moodiness and weak constitution; the pathogenesis of CAG was spleen deficiency with qi stagnation, heat depression and blood stasis in the stomach meridian. The above six syndrome types and 12 herbs were determined, including Pseudostellariae Radix, Poria, Atractylodismacrocephalae Rhizoma, Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, Fritillariae Thunbergii Bulbus, Sepiae Endoconcha, Arecae Pericarpium, Aurantii Fructus, Perillae Caulis, Herba Hedyotis Diffusae, Scutellariae Barbatae Herba, Curcumae Rhizoma. This study summarized Professor LIU Feng-bin's clinical experience and theoretical thoughts of chronic atrophic gastritis based on clinical practice data and expert interview, with a rigorous design and good scientificity and practicability.
