Purpose:To evaluate the effect of preoperativ e chemotherapy or brachtherapy and radical hysterectomy on stage Ⅰb-Ⅱb locally advanced cervical cancer with high risk factors. Methods:preoperative chemotherapy or radiotherapy followed by r adical hysterectomy compared to radical hysterectomy alone in stage Ⅰb-Ⅱb cer vical cancer with higher risk factors(bulky,lower grade,small cell cancer or ade nocarcinoma). Results:①Pelvic lymphnode metastases rate was significantly decreased in the neoadjuvant chemotherapy arm compared with surgery alone(P 0.05). Conclusions:Preoperative chemotherapy followed by surgery is e ffective and superior to surgery alone in stage Ⅰb-Ⅱb cervical cancer with high risk factors.It might be able to reduce tumor volume and eliminate effectiv ely disease in lymphnodes and possibly micrometastases.It may be beneficial in improving quality of life of patients by decreasing the need for postoperative r adiotherapy. Response to chemotherapy may be a prognostic factor.Preoperative br achytherapy showed no significant advantage in eliminating lymphnodes matastases as compared to surgery alone.

Objective To investigate neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus of adult rat following conditioned fear stimulus.Methods 24 adult male rats were randomly divided into conditioned fear stimulus group and control group,and all rats were intraperitoneally injected bromodeoxyuridine(BrdU)3 days before conditioned fear stimuli.Animals in conditioned fear stimulus group were given monotone matching foot shock and made conditioned fear stimulus model,animals in control group only give monotone.Freezing time was detected before stimuli and 7th,14th days after stimuli,then rats were sacrificed 7th or 14th day after fear conditioned stimulus,and immunohistochemistry for Brdu was detected.Results Behavioral assessment showed that the percents of freezing time in conditioned fear stimulus group 7th,14th days after conditioned fear stimulus were significantly high(88.68%,91.33%)than those in control group(11.18%,14.23%,P<0.01)and before stimulus(24.11%,16.11%,P<0.01).Compared to control group(1567±28,580±5),Brdu positive cells in dentate gyrus of rat in conditioned fear stimulus group(1364±21,296±22)were decreased,and it reached to a statistical significance on 14th day (P<0.05).Conclusion The decreased neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus of adult rat following conditioned fear stimuli may have relation to fear and other emotion memory.

Human parvovirus B19, generally referred to as B19 virus, has been closely associated with a variety of different autoimmune diseases due to the features of its capsid protein. B19 virus VP1 unique region protein that has sites of phospholipase A2 and several antigenic determinants is exposed on the outside of the viral capsid protein. As a result of that, B19 virus VP1 unique region protein can stimulate the host to produce autoantibodies, which induces and/or aggravates the autoimmune diseases. The biological characteristics of B19 virus VP1 unique region protein and its relationships with autoimmune diseases are de-scribed in this review based upon the published literatures and the work achieved by our research team. This review will be helpful to the prevention and treatment of B19 virus infection.

Objective To compare the early analgesic effects of continuous femoral nerve block analgesia (CFNB) and patient controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) and their effects on functional recovery after total knee arthroplasty.Methods Retrospective analysis was conducted on 60 ASA Ⅰ and ASA Ⅱ patients with unilateral total knee arthroplasty in our hospital from January 2014 to January 2015.The patients were divided into two groups,CFBN group (treatment group) and PCIA group (control group),with 30 patients in each group.VAS scores of postoperative ipsilateral knee resting and movement pain,range of postoperative knee joint motion (ROM),muscle strength of femoral quadriceps,incidence rates of adverse reaction within 7 days after operation,HSS score 3 months before and after the operation,and discharge time were observed.Results Postoperative VIS score in CFNB group was lower than that in PCIA group.ROM and muscle strength of femoral quadriceps in CFBN group were better than those in PCIA group on day 1,2,3,5,and 7 after the operation.Postoperative adverse reaction rate within 7 days in PCIA group was significantly higher than that in CFNB group.HSS score three months after the operation in CFNB group was higher than that in PCIA group.Discharge time of CFNB group was significantly earlier than that of PCIA group (P＜0.05).Conclusion Compared with PCIA analgesia,CFNB analgesia shows better analgesic effect.It can alleviate early knee joint pain after TKA,increase joint motion,significantly shorten the hospitalization time,promote joint exercises which are effective in functional rehabilitation,and decrease the incidence of adverse reactions like nausea and vomiting.

BACKGROUND: With the rapid development of tissue engineering, a single biological scaffold material is hard to meet the needs of tissue engineering. Therefore, composite scaffolds with excellent performance will be obtained by combining two or more kinds of materials.OBJECTIVE: To detect the adherence and proliferation of dental pulp stem cells on the Chitosan-fibrin composite scaffold.METHODS: Dental pulp stem cells were isolated and extracted from C57 neonatal rats through modified enzyme-digestion method, and subcultured to the third generation, followed by adipogenic and osteogenic induction in vitro. Then, induced cells were identified. The chitosan-fibrinogen composite scaffold was prepared, and the pore size and porosity were determined. The chitosan-fibrin composite scaffold was co-cultured with passage 3 dental pulp stem cells to observe the cell proliferation by MTT assay, and the morphology of the composite scaffold, cell adhesion,proliferation and extracellular matrix secretion were observed under scanning electron microscope. In addition, the cells were inoculated directly on the bottom of culture plate as controls.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The dental pulp stem cells were successfully isolated and cultivated, and positive for osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation. The pore size and porosity of the composite scaffold was (105.32±22.10) μm and (87.714±1.276)%, respectively. The S-shaped proliferation curve in the experimental group was similar with that in the control group; the proliferation rate in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group after 4-8 days of culture (P < 0.05). At the 2nd day after co-culture, the cells adhered tightly and grew well onto the composite scaffold; at the 4th day, enlarged cells began to proliferate obviously with abundant extracellular matrix; the surface and pores of the scaffold were full of cells at the 6th day. These results indicate that the chitosan-fibrin composite scaffold is suitable for the adhesion and proliferation of dental pulp stem cells.

Objective To explore the role of pregabalin on the expression of c-fos in spinal dorsal horn of the rat with neuropathic pain.Methods Thirty Wister rats (male) were divided into shamoperated group,model group and pregabalin group,with 10 cases in each group.The effect of the pregabalin on the heat pain threshold and expression of c-fos in spinal dorsal horn of the rat with neuropathic pain were observed.Results The heat pain threshold in model group at 3rd,4th,5th,6th,7th,10th and 14th day after operation was significantly lower than that in sham-operated group and pregabalin group at same time (P ＜ 0.05).The heat pain threshold in pregabalin group was lower than that in sham-operated group from 2nd day after operation,but there was no significant difference (P ＞0.05).At the 14th day after operation,the number of Fos-like-immunoreactivity (FLI) positive cells in sham-operated group,model group and pregabalin group was (16.4 ± 0.6),(66.7 ± 3.3) and (22.8 ± 1.5)cases,and the number of FLI positive cells in model group was significantly higher than that in shamoperated group and pregabalin group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Pregabalin has analgesic activity on rat with neuropathic pain.Pregabalin activates spinal cord glial cells raisedby the injured peripheral nerve and infection,and also reduces the noxious stimulation of afferent pain to spinal dorsal horn neurons.

Objective To investigate the influence of Chinese medicine ( CM) treatment on life span of middle-late primary hepatic carcinoma (PHC) patients. Results A multicenter retrospective cohort study was carried out in 489 PHC patients at the stages of Ⅱb, Ⅲa and Ⅲb collected from 15 domestic hospitals. With CM treatment as the exposure factor, the enrolled patients were divided into CM group, western medicine (WM) group and the CM-WM combination group. The main outcomes included median survival time (MST) and survival rate, and the effects of CM treatment and minimally invasive therapy on MST were observed. Results Half-a-year survival rate, one-year survival rate and two-year survival rate were 50%, 9%, 1% in CM group, 70%, 30%, 6% in CM-WM combination group, and 50%, 10%, 0% in WM group, respectively. The survival rates in CM-WM combination group differed from those in CM group and WM group (P<0.01), but the differences of survival rates between CM group and WM group were insignificant (P>0.05) . MST at the stages of Ⅱb, Ⅲa, Ⅲb in CM-WM group was obviously prolonged as compared with the other two groups (P<0.01), and MST at the stages of Ⅲa, Ⅲb in CM group was also obviously prolonged as compared with WM group (P<0.05) . The difference of MST at the stage of Ⅱb was insignificant between CM group and WM group ( P>0.05) . CM treatment and minimally invasive therapy were effective on prolonging the survival time of PHC patients ( P<0.01) . The results of COX regressionanalysis showed that Karnofsky scores, CM treatment and minimally invasive therapy were the preventive factors for the prognosis. Conclusion CM-WM combination group has the best long -term therapeutic effect. CM -WM combination treatment is effective on increasing MST and long-term survival rate, in particular for PHC patients at the stages ofⅡb, Ⅲa and Ⅲb. CM treatment and minimally invasive therapy are helpful for the prolongation of the survival time of PHC patients.
