Objective To investigate the relationship between diagnosis and treatment of the primary peritoneal carcinoma(PPC)and its prognosis.Methods The clinical materials of 10 women,who were diagnosed with PPC,were analyzed retrospectively from Mar.2000 to Nov.2006.Results We found that PPC has lower rate of incidence,higher rate of wrong diagnosis,wider spread in pelvis cavity and abdominal cavity and had no significant clinical signs and symptoms specificity.All of the patients needed cytoreductive surgery,but the majority of rudimental focus diameter is larger than 2 cm.After the operation,platinum combined other chemotherapeutic drug were needed.Conclusion Abdominal distention,ascites,abdominal pain are the main symptoms and signs of PPC.we need choose cytoreductive surgery as much as possible.Extra trauma to patients will affect restoration and survival time of patients and the effect of chemotherapy.We also found the effect of abdominal cavity chemotherapy may be better than that of chemotherapy in vein.

Background and purpose:Lung cancer is one of most common diseases,The number of new cases of lung cancer are more than 500 000 per year in the world and it has been ranked as number one in terms of incidence of malignant tumors in China.Unfortunately about 40 percent of the patients were diagnosed as locally advanced unresectable non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).Elderly patients with NSCLC also showed an increasing trend in the past years.The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of gemcitabine(GEM) and carboplatin(CBP) used as induction regimen in the treatment of elderly patients with locally advanced unresectable NSCLC.Methods:42 cases of elderly patients have been cytologically and pathologically confirmed with locally advanced unresectable NSCLC,the age of the patients ranged from 65 to 75.The patients were treated with the combined regimen of gemcitabine and cisplatin.GEM 1 000 mg/m2 intravenously injected by drip on the 1st,8th day and the dosage of CBP was AUC 5 that was used on the 1st day,21 days apart to each cycle,most patients received 2-3 cycles.Treatment response was evaluated according to the criteria of RECIST(Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumor),the side effect of the regimen was judged based on WHO criteria.Results:42 patients were evaluable and received a total of 89 cycles chemotherapy.There were no complete regression that could be observed,but 17 cases had partial regression(PR),22 cases with no change(NC) and 3 cases with progression disease(PD).The overall response rate was 40.5%.The main side effects were hematological toxicity.Conclusions:The GC regimen could be used as induction treatment for elderly patients with locally advanced unresectable NSCLC,and the regimen could be well tolerated and is safe in terms of side effects.

Objective To evaluate the application of enzyme-linked immunospot assay (T SPOT) in diagnosis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) infection for AIDS patients. Methods The rapid T SPOT assay was employed to detect ESAT-6 and CFP-10 specific T cells in blood samples from 35 AIDS patients with active tuberculosis. The results were compared with those of PPD skin test. Results The positive-MTB rate with T SPOT assay in all patients (n = 35 ) was 65.71%, that in patients with CD4 < 200/μ (n = 21) was 66.67%, in patients with CD4 > 200/μl (n = 10) was 60.0% , in patients with anti-tuberculosis treatment < 2 months ( n = 15 ) was 83.33% and in patients with treatment > 2 months ( n = 6 ) was 25.00%. The positive rates of PPD skin test were 24.24%, 25.00%, 33.33%, 9.09% and 25.00% in these groups, respectively. The positive rates of T SPOT assay were significantly higher than those of PPD skin test in all patients, in those with CD4 < 200/μl and with anti-tuberculosis treatment < 2 months ( P < 0.05 ). Conclusion T SPOT assay was more sensitive than conventional PPD skin test, and can be applied in the diagnosis of MTB infections for AIDS patients.

Platelet-activation factor (PAF), one of the potent proinflammatory mediators, is produced from a large range of cells, including polymorphonuclear neutrophils, monocytes, and natural killer cells. To study the role of PAF in the pathogenesis of silicosis, we determined the PAF in silicotic patients and in healthy persons. The results showed that the concentration of PAF in the plasma of silicotic patients was significantly higher than that of healthy persons. Our in vitro experimental results showed that the total numbers of fibroblasts were markedly raised with added PAF from 0 to 1 μ g/ml. Adding 1 μ g/ml PAF significantly increased the total numbers of fibroblasts after culture for 48, 72, 96 hrs. Therefore, we suggest that PAF be possibly involved in the pathogenesis of silicosis. However, the mechanism remains to be further elucidated.

Objective To investigate the characteristic and clinical significance of airway inflammation in children with acute asth-ma. Methods Underwent sputum induction and sputum induction in children (n=34) with acute asthma was repented in recovered children ( n = 24).Induced sputum were also taken from 15 healthy children as controls.Total and differential cell counts were per-formed. Interleukin(IL)-8、IL-6 were measured,The relationship between inflammatory cells and IL-8、 IL-6、peak expiratory (PEF) were analyzed.Results The inflammatory cell infiltrate was mixed including eosmophilic granulocytes, neutrophils, and macrophages. They decreased significantly, but eosinophilic granulocyte remained a higher percentage compared with healthy subjects. There was low-er percentage of lymphocytes at acute exacerhation.Eosinophilic granulocytes were correlated with the degree of airflow obstruction. Levels of IL-8、IL-6 were elevated during the acute exacerbation and decreased at resolution.IL-8 was correlated significantly with neutrophils at acute exacerhation and resolution.IL-6 was correlated signifficantly with eosinophilic granulocytes at acute exacerbation. Conclusions Airway inflammation is chataeterized by infiltration of eosinophils, neutrophils and macrophages.IL-8、IL-6 possibly is the important cytokines of airway inflammation in children with acute asthma. Increased eosinophils in induced sputum correlates with asthma severity. Therapy to the cytokines may have potential values.J Appl Clin pediatr,2004,19(12): 1023-1025

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of varicella attenuated live vaccine ( VarV) produced by A Co. Ltd. Methods We selected 3 provinces in China and enrolled 15 002 children aged 3-<11 in this random, multicenter study. Participants were randomly divided into two groups: the ex-perimental group and the control group. Every varicella case was collected and recorded to calculate the vac-cine efficacy. Vaccine safety was assessed by means of spontaneous report and regular follow-up visits. Re-sults During the observation period, the incidence of varicella was 0. 147% in the experimental group and 1. 155% in the control group (P<0. 001). The vaccine efficacy was 87. 27%. The adverse reaction rate af-ter vaccination was lower than the rates reported in other literatures. Conclusion The VarV produced by A Co. , Ltd. in China was effective and safe in preventing varicella.
