OBJECTIVE:To study the effect of paroxetine combined with low dose of olanzapine on sleep process and architec-ture of depression patients with insomnia. METHODS:84 depression patients with insomnia were randomly divided into control group and observation group. Control group was given 20 mg Paroxetine tablet,once every morning;observation group was addi-tionally given 2.5 mg Olanzapine tablet,once before going to bed. Sleep quality [Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI)],depres-sion scores [Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD)],sleep process [sleep latency (SL),awakening times (AT),the actual total sleep time (TST),sleep efficiency (SE),rapid eye movement (REM) sleep latency (RL)] and sleep architecture [sleep stage 1 (S1),2(S2),3(S3)and the proportion of REM to sleep] in 2 groups before and 3,6 months after treatment and the incidence of adverse reactions(ADR)were observed. RESULTS:After treatment,PSQI and HAMD scores in 2 groups were significantly lower than before,and gradually decreased by time,and observation group was lower than control group;TST in observation group was significantly higher than before and control group,S1 in observation group was significantly lower than before,SE,S3 and REM in 2 groups were significantly higher than before,and observation group was higher than control group,SL,AT,RL and S2 were significantly lower than before,and observation group was lower than control group,the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). There were no obvious ADR in 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS:Paroxetine combined with low dose of olanzapine can sig-nificantly relieve depression,optimize sleep process and sleep architecture,then impove sleep quality.

Objective L-selectin is an important adhesion molecule,which is the lymph cell's homing receptor specifically expressed on leukocytes.A non-lymphoma cell line-HCa-F has the high potential ability of metastasis to peripheral lymph nodes,whose character is similar to lymphoma's.We want to explore whether the HCa-F cell's metastasis mechanism is also similar to lymphoma's,that is to say,whether HCa-F cell can also express L-selectin and the expression of L-selectin bring about the lymph node metastasis character. Methods First,?-fetoprotein,CD3 and CD20's monoclonal antibodies were used to identify the origin of HCa-F cell;then we analysed whether the HCa-F cell can express L-selectin by means of flow cytometry analysis,RT-PCR,and Western blotting;finally,Stamper-Woodruff method was used to examine the L-selectin's function. Results Immunostaining showed that the HCa-F cell was ?-fetoprotein positive,CD3 and CD20 negative cell line,which suggests that it is a liver cell line.And results of flow cytometry,RT-PCR,and Western blotting showd that HCa-F cell can express L-selectin.Additionally,anti-L-selectin's antibody can inhibit the adhesion between HCa-F cells and frozen section of mouse lymph node.Conclusion L-selectin expressed on HCa-F cells is a functional molecule which can facilitate HCa-F cell's metastasis to lymph nodes.

ObjectiveTo improve the diagnosis, treatment and prophylaxis of fungal infections following orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). Methods Medical records from 175 consecutive patients who underwent 180 OLT at our centre from 1993 and 2002 were retrospectively reviewed for fungal infection. ResultsTwenty nine patients(16 6%) developed invasive fungal infection. Median posttransplantation interval was 26 days (range 3 to 96) and respiratory tract was the most common infectious site (37%). Pathogens were Candida species (24 of 43, 98%) and Aspergillus (1 of 43, 2%). Fungal infections occurred significantly more often in patients with the length of time in parenteral nutrition, antibiotic use over 3 weeks or hepatic artery complications. After treatment with Fluconazole (26 patients) and liposomal amphotericin B (8 patients with serious fungal infections), 16 patients were cured and 13 patients died. The mortality related to fungal infection was 4 0% (7/175). Conclusion Fungal infections are associated with mortality following OLT. Eliminating the various risk factors will decrease the incidence of fungal infection. Amphotericin B or liposomal amphoterin B are effective for patients with serious fungal infection.
