Objective To identify the reason and preventive methods from misdiagnosed cases of multiple myeloma(MM) initially manifested as lumbago.Methods Medical history and clinical data of 25 MM patients in department of hematology in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed to explore the clinical characteristics,misdiagnosis and prognosis of them.Results The 25 patients with initial presentation of lumbago were most misdiagnosed as bone and joint diseases,including 6 cases of lumbar disc,7 cases of lumbar compression fractures,6 cases of osteoporosis.And 1 cases of bone tuberculosis,3 patients of rheumatoid arthritis.And there were 2 cases of bone metastases,who were later diagnosed when anemia,neutropenia,thrombocytopenic and renal dysfunction appeared.The average misdiagnosed time was 7 months with a range of 3 months to 13 months.The median survival time was (29.2 ± 5.2) months in this group of patients.Conclusion MM,with the first manifestation of lumbago,has a single clinical manifestation and is often misdiagnosed as bone and joint diseases.Specialists who are not from hematology department should raise awareness and vigilance of the disease.Laboratory examinations results should be referred to in the diagnosis.Sum up experience in order to improve the early diagnosis of this disease and to effectively improve patient's prognosis and quality of life.

Food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome(FPIES) is a series symptoms of recurrent vomiring and diarrhea caused by non-IgE-mediated food allergy to cow milk and soy in infants.The most common causative foods of FPIES are cow milk,soy and rice.Symptoms start within first days to 12 months of life.The sensitivity is usually outgrown by 3 years of age.The most common clinical symptoms observed include recurrent vomiting,diarrhea,fecal bloody,lethargy,pallor,etc.The diagnosis relies on history,clinical features,food eliminate,and oral food challenges.The food elimination is the mains treatment of FPIES management.

Early detection of HCC is critical for a good prognosis. Therefore, the development of tumor markers that can detect HCC at even earlier stages is urgent. Recent researches show that the human cervical cancer oncogene, gamma-glutamyl transferase mRNA, human telomerase reverse transcriptase mRNA, the proteins such as glypican-3, golgi protein 73, vascular endothelial growth factor and transforming growth factor-β1 could serve as markers for early detection of HCC.

Early diagnosis,early treatment and the correct therapeutic approch are the keys for metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC) treatment.Currently,PET-CT is the best modality for distant metastasis staging of NPC.Cispalatin-based chemotherapy is the standard treatment method of metastatic NPC.Molecular targeted therapy is possible to further increase curative effect.When the lesions are limited,local palliative treatment may improve prognosis if patient's illness is controled by chemotherapy.

T follicular helper cells(Tfh)possess the function to induce efficient B cell maturation in germinal center (GC).However,HIV infection can destroy the structure of lymphoid follicles,and disturb the quantity and function of Tfh,resulting in the dysfunction of B cells.Meanwhile,HIV may remain dormant in the Tfh after invading host and escape the elimination of immunologic system.Consequently,the Tfh turns into the sanctuary of HIV.By the above mentioned mechanism,HIV infection leads to the progressive damage of CD4 + T lymphocytes, hypergammaglobulinemia and the loss of memory B lymphocytes.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of omeprazole and cimetidine in the prophylaxis of stress ulcer bleeding to provide evidence for clinical therapy in China. Methods:The randomized controlled trials were searched in PubMed, Medline, CNKI, Wan-fang and Vip database with the key words of omeprazole, cimetidine and stress ulcer. Two evaluators assessed the quality and reviewed the data independently. RevMan 5. 2 software was used for Meta-analysis. Results:Seventeen randomized controlled trials were includ-ed involving 892 patients for omeprazole group and 888 patients for cimetidine group. The results of Meta-analysis showed that the difference between the two groups after the treatment was statistically significant by comparing the incidence of stress ulcer bleeding (OR=0. 23,95% CI:0. 17-0. 32;P<0. 000 01). The incidence of stress ulcer bleeding of omeprazole group was significantly lower than that of cimetidine group. Conclusion:Existing literature analysis shows that omeprazole is more effective than cimetidine in the stress ulcer bleeding prophylaxis.

The analysis of the complete genome sequences of microorganism available in the public databases offers the first insights into the drug targets discovery. This review discusses the use of genomic information in the finding of target genes for antimicrobial drug discovery.

Objective To investigate the rule of the aquaporin 4 (AQP 4) expression in the acute ischemic cerebral tissues, and to study the molecular biologic mechanism of diffusion weighted imaging (DWI). Methods Thirty six Wistar rats were divided into 2 groups randomly, including control group ( n = 12) and operation group ( n =24). The operation group was studied after the right middle cerebral artery was unilaterally occluded (MCAO) at an interval of 15 min, 30 min, 1 h, 3 h, 6 h, and 24 h, respectively ( n =4 for each sub group). The operation process of the control group was the same as the operation group except MCAO. All rats in both groups were examined with DWI. The relative ADC (rADC), relative density (rd), and relative area (rs) of the biggest hyperintensity signal layer on DWI were measured. After that, the animals were sacrificed and perfused with the mixture solution consisting of TTC at different time intervals. The biggest layer of the ischemic cerebral tissues stained with TTC and corresponding to that of DWI was examined with immunochemistry and in situ hybridization. The AQP 4 expression AQP 4 (△S and ?) was measured with the Image Analyzer. Meanwhile, histologic examination was performed at each group. Results There was no significant change of the DWI and the pathology, as well as the AQP 4 expression in the control group. In the operation group, abnormal high intensity was found in DWI of ipsilateral MCA territory at 15 min after MCAO, and rADC value decreased quickly within 1 h after MCAO, while the AQP 4 expression, the rd DWI, and the rs DWI increased rapidly in the stage. With the progress of the time, the rADC value further decreased at 3 h, and then began increasing slowly till 24 h . But the AQP 4 expression (△S and ?) and the rd as well as the rs continuously increased slowly between 1 h and 6 h after MCAO, then they had an increasing peak except the rd. The AQP 4 expression, rd DWI, and rs DWI all showed positive linear relationship with time, presenting as 2 peaks and a plateau. The corresponding sequential pathologic changes were gradual increase of intracellular edema (

The p53 gene is one of the most common targets for genetic abnormalities in human tumors. Restoring wild - type p53 gene (wt-p53) into cancer cells which have p53 deletion is a strategy in cancer gene therapy. In order to explore the feasibility of this hypothesis, we selected a gastric cancer cell line BGC823 which was confirmed having deletion of chromosome 17pl3 and decreased expression level of p53 mRNA . We transfected construct pC53SN3 containing wt - p53 into BGC823 cell line with lipofectin mediated gene transferration, and G418 resistant colonies were characterized by using analysis of PCR, Southern blot hybridization, Northern blot hybridization and Western blot hybridization. These data showed that exogenous wt-p53 had successfully transferred into BGC823 cells and obtained high expression. The cell growth rates in regular medium and soft agar were inhibited from 30 to 40 percent in the BGC823 cells transfected with wt - p53. The tumorigenicity in nude mice showed that one of four mice failed to form tumor and three of them delayed to form tumor from 7 to 14 days comparing with monk and parent BGC823 cells. These results suggested that exogenous wt -p53 could suppress the growth ability and tumorigenicity of human gastric cancer cells. The method of using lipofectin mediated wt-p53 gene transfection may have a potentially therapeutic effect on human gastric cancer.

The effects of compound oral fish oil preparation on the increase of intelligence were studied. Step-down test, normobaric hypoxia test and loaded swimming test in mice were used. The results indicated that during the administration period (15 d and 30 d), the oral preparation containing fish oil 3. 6 g/kg and 7. 2 g/kg increased both learning and memory abilities, promoted the tolerance of normal mice to hypoxia as well as swimming fatigue.
