Objective To observe the effects of ganglioside and piracetam in improving the neurological function in patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage.Methods Ninety-six patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage Were randomly divided into 2 groups,ganglioside group(48 patients)and piracetam group(48 patients).Ganglioside group used the amount 40mg ganglioside mixed with sodium chloride injection(100ml,concentration 0.9%),and the piracetam group uesd piracetam(20g)mixed with the same injection.Both the patients of the 2 groups were given intravenous drip once a day,then after continuous 3 weeks,the general information and the improvement of nerve were observed.Results The effective rate and excellent rate of ganglioside group were remarkably higher than piracetam group,there was significant difference between the two groups(P＜0.05).Conclusion Ganglioside was better than pimcetam in improving clinical symptoms and the neurological deficit of the patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage.

The author has analysed the current employment situation for clinical medicine graduates,the reasons for the difficulty of employment and solutions,so that the basis and the reference can be provided for us to carry out guiding work of clinical medicine graduates.

Because of the short education system,active and effective entrance education will produce a great impact on both the life of the medical college students and their long-term development.We should not only understand and analyze the views and cognition of the students but put forward a proposal to their entrance education as well,which will provide basic and reference that can develop the entrance and the political thought education better.

OBJECTIVETo explore the effect of Peitu Shengjin Recipe (PSR) on nutritional states and immune functions of stable phase chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients.

METHODSTotally 62 stable phase COPD patients were randomly assigned to the treatment group (30 cases) and the control group (32 cases). All patients inhaled Seretide (50/500 µg), twice per day. Besides, patients in the treatment group additionally received PSR, one dose per day. After three months of treatment, the COPD assessment test (CAT) score, the index of nutritional states [including body mass index (BMI) , thickness of skin fold (TSF), mid-arm muscle circumference (MAMC), serum albumin, serum prealbumin], and immune functions (including IgA, IgM, and IgG) were compared between the two groups.

RESULTSBy the end of the treatment, the CAT score decreased more obviously in the treatment group than in the control group (P < 0.05). The improvement of BMI, TSF, MAMC, serum albumin, and serum prealbumin was better in the treatment group than in the control group (P < 0.05). IgM and IgG also increased more in the treatment group (P < 0.05). There was no statistical difference in IgA between the two groups (P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONSAdditionally use of PSR could improve nutritional states and immune functions of stable phase COPD patients to some extent. Meanwhile, it also could improve their health related quality of life.

Objective To explore the potential of breast cancer stem cells in differentiating into vascular endothelial cells and participating in the angiogenesis of breast tumor.Methods The expressions of mutant P53, CD31 ,VEGF and Her-2 amplification in tumor blood vessels were detected and the single cell suspension of breast cancer was prepared.CD44+/CD24-/low cells were selected and cultured in culture system.The expressions of CD31 and CD105 on endothelial cell surface were detected by EGM-2 endothelial cell culture medium.The ability of uptake of acetylated low-density lipoprotein was measured.The endothelial cells were cultured in vitro to observe their vascular structure.Results The expressions of CD31,VEGF and mutant P53 were found in paraffin sections of breast cancer tissue samples, and they were arranged along the vessel lumen or blood vessel sphere. Immunofluorescence showed that CD31 and DAPI signals were expressed intravascularly in breast cancer tissues. Four samples of Her-2 positive amplification and 9 cases of non-amplification were detected in the samples.The successful separation of breast cancer stem cells was carried out by immunomagnetic sorting.The percentage of CD44+ cells in the pre-sorting cells was (7.5±2.6)% and that of CD44+ cells was about (94.3±4.7)% after magnetic sorting (P<0.05).The ratio of CD24+ cells was (48.2±9.4)% before sorting,and that of CD24+ cells was (4.3±1.6)% after immunomagnetic bead sorting.The proportion of CD105+ cells in mammary gland cells was (4.5±0.9)% and the proportion of CD31+ cells was (6.2±1.3)%.After cultured for three generations,the percentages of CD105+ cells and CD31+ cells were (79.6±9.3)% and (84.1±10.7)%,respectively (P<0.05). DiL-Ac-LDL could be phagocytized by endothelial cells cultured in endothelial cell culture system.Vessel-like structure was found in the endothelial cell group while the control group did not have the tendency of vascular changes.Conclusion Breast cancer stem cell-derived endothelial cells differentiate into endothelial cells in vitro and have the ability of vascular formation,suggesting that breast cancer stem cells may be involved in the formation of tumor blood vessels.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization(TACE) combined with radiofrequency ablation(RFA) and TACE combined with 125I interstitial brachytherapy in the treatment of primary hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) and to compare the results of the two therapies.Methods Fifty patients with HCC underwent TACE and RFA during laparotomy and 34 patients received TACE and radioactive 125I particle seeding.Four weeks after the procedure,dynamic enhanced CT or MR scanning was performed for a check.If the lipiodol deposit was poor,TACE was repeated.Follow-up check was made at regular intervals to observe the results.Results One month after the treatment,the local control rate of the tumor for TACE +RFA and TACE + 125I particle seeding combination therapy was 98.0% and 97.1%,respectively.No statistically significant difference existed between the two therapies.Conclusions Both TACE combined with RFA or with 125I particle seeding are effective therapies for HCC,which can be regarded as an ideal alternative therapy for patients who have failed to respond to TACE alone.
