Objective To observe the effect of Jianpi Buxue Decoction on the protein expression of neurokinin 1 receptor (NK1R) and CD34 in C57BL/6 mice of lung cancer after chemotherapy, and to explore the improvement of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting and myelosuppression treated with Jianpi Buxue Decoction. Methods Forty C57BL/6 mice were transplanted with Lewis lung cancer cells in the armpit of left anterior limb after being fed for 7 days, and then were randomly divided into lung cancer group, model group, and high-, middle- and low-dose Chinese medicine groups. Model group and Chinese medicine groups were injected intraperitoneally with cyclophosphamide (80 mg/kg) for one day. Lung cancer group and model group were given normal saline. Chinese medicine groups were administered with high-, middle- and low-dose of Jianpi Buxue Decoction (25, 12.6, 6.25 g/kg respectively) for 14 days. After the modeling, all of the mice were sacrificed, and then the brains and spleens were sampled. Western blotting method was used to detect the protein expression of NK1R and CD34. Results Compared with lung cancer group, the protein expression of cerebral NK1R and splenic CD34 in the model group was increased significantly ( P<0.01) . Compared with the model group, the protein expression of NK1R in mice brain tissues of high-, middle- and low- dose Jianpi Buxue Decoction groups was decreased significantly (P<0.01) , while the protein expression of CD34 in spleen tissues of middle-and low-dose Jiangpi Buxue Decoction groups was increased obviously ( P<0.05) . Conclusion Jianpi Buxue Decoction has an effect on down-regulating the protein expression of NK1R in brain tissues and on up-regulating the protein expression of CD34 in spleen tissues of C57BL/6 mice with lung cancer after chemotherapy, indicating that Jianpi Buxue Decoction probably can relieve chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting, and can improve the myelosuppression after chemotherapy.

In order to study the the impact of cognitive difference between doctors and patients on doctor-patient relationship, five tertiary hospitals in city B were investigated with questionnaire and quantitative interviews, and the outcomes were analyzed with SPSS16. 0 software. Cognitive differences were found in the nature of the relationship, the main part of responsibility for the relationship, and principles for communication between the parties. By analyzing the causes of the difference and their impact on the relationship, it draw the conclusion that this cognitive difference found between the two parties functions as a key to the conflicts between doctors and patients. Return of health care back to non-profit nature, encouragement of patient-doctor communication and mutual understanding will be conducive to minimizing such a cognitive difference, and building a harmonious doctor-patient relationship.

AIM As one of the reactive oxygen species, toxic dose of H2O2 leads to the necrosis or apoptosis of many kinds of cells. It is nuclear whether these processes are related with the changes of nuclear Ca2+ elicited by H2O2. This study on the effect of taurine on changes of nuclear and cytosolic (Ca2+) elicited by H2O2 in rat vascular smooth muscle cells. METHODS The techniques of Fluo-3 and laser scanning confocal microscopy were used. RESULTS Rapid and sustaining rise of nuclear [Ca2+] ([Ca2+]n) and cytosolic [Ca2+]([Ca2+]c) were found in cultured rat vascular smooth muscle cells upon adding of 0.5% H2O2. Pretreatment of the cells with 20 mmol*L-1 taurine, a regulator of cellular Ca2+ homestasis, significantly decreased the rise amplitude of [Ca2+]n (P<0.05), but failed to affect that of [Ca2+]c (P>0.05) elicited by H2O2. It was suggested that the changes of [Ca2+]n and [Ca2+]c have different respond to taurine. CONCLUSION It was concluded that there exist the independent regulating mechanisms of Ca2+ in the nucleus from differences between the nucleus and cytosol Ca2+ in sensitivity to action of H2O2 and taurine.

Objective To introduce a new modified percutaneous dilational tracheostomy and compare the application effect of percutaneous dilational tracheostomy with modified percutaneous dilational tracheostomy in the treatment of critically ill patients. Methods A total of 60 critically ill patients undergoing tracheotomy were selected , and they were randomly divided into two groups according to the methods of tracheotomy. Sex, age, weight, body mass index, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation, operation time, incision size, intraoperative blood loss, incision healing time, incidences of complications after operation were compared between the two groups. Results There were not statistically significant differences of in sex, age, weight, body mass index, and acute physiology and chronic health evaluation between percutaneous dilational tracheostomy group and modified percutaneous dilational tracheostomy group (P>0.05). Operation time, incision size and intraoperative blood loss of modified percutaneous dilational tracheostomy group was statistically significantly shorter than that of percutaneous dilational tracheostomy group [(5.80 ± 1.19) min vs. (7.65 ± 1.05) min, (8.33 ± 3.30) ml vs. (11.33 ± 4.34) ml, (1.08 ± 2.96) cm vs. (1.27 ± 2.54) cm] (P<0.05). The incision healing time and incidence of complications after operation of percutaneous dilational tracheostomy group had no statistical significance compared with modified percutaneous dilational tracheostomy group (P>0.05). Conclusions The modified percutaneous dilational tracheostomy can save operation time, and reduce intraoperative blood loss, so it can be widely used.

Mink plasmacytosis, caused by Aleutian Mink Disease Virus (AMDV), poses a threat to the development of the animal fur industry. Neutralizing antibodies against AMDV may result in a persistent infection rather than providing protection for minks. To date,no specific methods to prevent or cure this disease have been developed. In order to eliminate mink plasmacytosis, antibody detection technology has been used globally as a dominant approach to screen for AMDV-positive minks. This paper introduces the classical technology, counterimmunoelectrophoresis and emerging technology in terms of AMDV antibody detection,and provides a glimpse into the future development of these technologies.

Objective To investigate Yiqi Huatan Decoction(YHD), a compound recipe with the actions of tonifying Qi and resolving phlegm, on aquaporin 5(AQP5), tumor necrosis factor-alpha(TNF-α)and mucin 5AC(MUC5AC)in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)of chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases(COPD)rats. Methods SD rats were randomized into blank control group, model group, and low-, middle- and high-dose YHD groups(in the dosage of 7.398, 36.99, 73.98 g·kg-1·d-1 respectively). The rat model of COPD was induced by cigarette smoking combined with intratracheal dripping of lipopolysaccharide(LPS). After COPD rats were treated with YHD for 30 days, the histological features of lung tissues were observed after hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining, the expression of AQP5, TNF -α and MUC5AC in the lung tissue was detected by immunohistochemistry, the concentrations of AQP5, TNF-α and MUC5AC in BALF of rats were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). Results Compared with the blank control group, the concentration of AQP5 in BALF of the model group was decreased significantly(P<0.01), while the concentrations of TNF-αand MUC5AC were significantly increased(P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the pathological features of the lung tissue were relieved, and the concentration of AQP5 was increased significantly in low-, middle-, high-dose YHD groups (P<0.01), but the concentrations of TNF-α and MUC5AC were significantly decreased (P<0.01), and the effect of high-dose group was superior to low-and middle-dose groups(P<0.01). Conclusion The therapeutic mechanism of YHD for COPD is probably related with the regulation of fluid transport in aquaporin water channels of rats.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) and percutaneous cryosurgery sequential therapy for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods Four hundred and twenty patients with unresectable HCC were divided into sequential TACE-cryosurgery sequential (sequential) group (n=290) and cryosurgery alone (cryoalone) group (n = 130). TACE was performed with the routine operation; the percutaneous cryosurgery was conducted 2 to 4 weeks after TACE. The patients were followed up at the first month and once every 2 to 3 month later. Liver ultrasound or both computer tomography and alpha fetal protein were examined during follow-up. Results During a mean follow-up of (42±17) months (range from 24 to 70 months), the local recurrence rate of ablated lesion was 17% for all the patients, 11% and 24% for patients in sequential group and cryoalone groups respectively (P=0. 001). The overall 1-, 2-, 3-, 4-and 5-year survival rate was 72%, 57%, 47%, 39% and 31%, respectively. The 1- and 2-year survival rates (71% and 61 % ) in sequential group were similar to those (73 % and 54 % ) in cryo-alone group (P=0.69 and 0. 147), while the 4- and 5-year survival rates were higher in sequential group (49 % and 39 % ) than those (29 % and 23 % ) in cryo-alone group (P= 0.001). Eighteen patients with large HCC (>5 cm in diameter) in sequential group survived for more than 5 years while no one in cryo-alone group. Complication rate was 24% in all patients, 21% and 26% for the sequential and cryo-alone groups respectively (P=0. 06). The incidence of hepatic bleeding was higher in cryo-alone group than in sequential group (P=0. 02). Liver crack occurred in two patients of the cryoalone group. Conclusions Pre-cryosurgical TACE increased the cryoablation efficacy and decrease its complications, especially hepatic bleeding. TACE and cryosurgery sequential therapy may be a better treatment for unresectable HCC, especially for large HCC.

To analyze the genetic characteristics of a polio-I highly variant vaccine recombinant virus in Shandong Province (China) in 2011 and to identify isolates from healthy contacts, two stool specimens from one patient with acute flaccid paralysis (AFP) and 40 stool specimens from his contacts were collected for virus isolation. The complete genome of poliovirus and VP1 coding region of the non-polio enterovirus were sequenced. Homologous comparison and phylogenetic analyses based on VP1 sequences were undertaken among coxsackievirus (CV) B1, CV-B3 isolates, and those in GenBank. One poliovirus (P1/11186), CV-A4 and CV-A8 were isolated from the AFP patient; one CV-A2, Echovirus 3 (E-3), E-12 and E-14, ten CV-B1, and five CV-B3 strains were isolated from his contacts. These results led us to believe that there may be a human enterovirus epidemic in this area, and that surveillance must be enhanced. P1/11186 was a type-1 vaccine-related poliovirus; it combined with type-2 and type-3 polioviruses in 2A and 3A regions, respectively. There were 25 nucleotide mutations with 9 amino-acid alterations in the entire genome. There were 8 nucleotide mutations with 5 amino-acid alterations in the VP1 region compared with the corresponding Sabin strains. Homology analyses suggested that the ten CV-B1 isolates had 97.0%-100% nucleotide and 98.9%-100% amino-acid identities with each other, as well as 92.6%-100% nucleotide and 99.2%-100% amino-acid identities among the five CV-B3 isolates. Phylogenetic analyses on the complete sequences of VP1 among CV-B1 and CV-B3 isolates showed that Shandong strains, together with strains from other provinces in China, had a close relationship and belonged to the same group.
