OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of Xuanyinning Recipe (XYNR) in inhibiting SPC-A-1 cellular infiltration and on the pathomorphological changes of peritoneum in mice inoculated with sarcoma 180 (S(180)). METHODS: On the bases of isolated culture of mouse peritoneal mesothelial cells, we adjusted and added the human lung adenocarcinoma cell line SPC-A-1 into the double-layer culture medium to observe the number of clones formed. We also took out the peritoneum from the mice administered with three different dosages of XYNR and observed its pathomorphological changes with transmission electron microscope. RESULTS: In the in vitro experiment, the number of clones of SPC-A-1 in culture medium with XYNR (50 microg/ml) decreased distinctly. In the in vivo experiment, it was observed that, in the peritoneum from the XYNR-treated mice inoculated with S(180), the mesothelial cells arranged more and more regularly with the increasing of the dosage of XYNR, while the mesothelial cells in the peritoneum of the mice in the control group necrosed and arranged loosely. CONCLUSION: XYNR can inhibit the invasion of SPC-A-1 cells. It also can improve the loose arrangement of the peritoneal mesothelial cells in mice inoculated with S(180), so as to inhibit the malignant effusion.

Objective:To observe the influence of Xinfeng capsule(XFC) on pulmonary HRCT images and cytokines(TNF-?,IL-10) in blood serum adjuvant arthritis rats.Methods:60 rats were averagely divided into normal control group,model control group,methotrexate(MTX) treated group,tripterygium wilfordii polycoride tablet(TPT) treated group, XFC treated group,12 in each.Except for the rats of normal group,the others were intracutaneously injected with 0.1 ml of Freund’s complete adjuvant in the right hindlimb.After 19 days,different drugs were given to all rats. Pulmonary HRCT images were obtained and the blood samples were reserved for assaying cytokines.Results:In model control group ,the lungs’ outlines weren’t clear and the blood vessels expanded with the edges of them being obscure and unregular. There were high density images shaped as rope and slip in lungs of model control group rats and the pleura near the images were a little thickening. In MTX treated group, there were high density images shaped as slice along pulmonary veins. The veins of the blood vessels were obscure and the edges were unclear. In TPT treated group,there were multiple high density images shaped as tubercle and slice and the boundary were not clear. In XFC treated group, the lungs’ outlines were clear and the veins were well-distributed. High density images shaped as spot were found in part lungs. Compared with normal control group,tumor necrosis factor-?(TNF-?) in blood serum ascended obviously in model control group(P0.05).Conclusion:XFC eliminates swelling by down-regulating the levels of TNF-?, up-regulating the levels of IL-10, restraining the inflammatory reaction.In adittion,cytokines participated in forming pulmanory fibrofication.So the changes of pulmanory HRCT images were also improved at the same time.

Objective To observe effects of Xinfeng capsule(XFC)on depressive mood and serum cortisol in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and study its mechanism.Methods 76 RA patients were randomly divided into two groups.The treatment group(n=40)was treated with XFC,and the control group(n=36)with Zhengqing Fengtongning.The targets included clinical effects,symptom and sign,integral of quality of life,self-rating depression scale(SDS)and serum cortisol.Results The effects of XFC were similar to that of Zhengqing Fengtongning in the total effective rate,improving symptoms and sign,active index,etc.XFC was superior to Zhengqing Fengtongning in improving SDS standard score,the symptoms of splenic asthenia and quality of life(P

Sepsis is a high-risk factor for the death of critical patients. High density lipoprotein (HDL) are the major protective serum proteins, and the serum levels of HDL are closely related to the severity of sepsis. The anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidation properties of HDL, may be able to play an important role in the innate immune response. Thereby it may reduce the damage of septic shock and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) in animals or human beings, and improve the prognosis. In order to unveil the metabolism of HDL in septic patients and its effects on both progression and prognosis of sepsis, this review not only focuses on the composition and structure of HDL, but also analyzes its pivotal role in inflammatory immune response and anti-oxidation.

Objective To study the relationship between overlapping symptoms (OS) and psycho- mental factors in patients with functional dyspepsia (FD) in order to understand the possible mechanisms of OS.Methods One hundred and three FD patients diagnosed by Rome Ⅲ criteria were divided into with or without OS groups by Rome Modular Questionnaire.The emotional status,sleep status,anxiety and depression status were evaluated by Zung Anxiety and Depression Scale and quality of life was eveluated by SF-36 questionnaire.The results were compared between the two groups.Results The proportion of the patients with and without OS accounted for 62.5% and 37.5%,respectively.The patients with OS had a worse emotional status ("bad%" and "very bad%" being 39.1% and 20.2% vs.15.4% and 12.8%,P=0.018) and a worse sleep status (45.3% and 11.0% vs.19.1% and 7.7%,p=0.018)than those without OS.The proportion of the patients with anxiety (49 % ) and depression (68 % ) status in OS group was significantly higher than that in without OS group (19% and 44%,respectively,P＜0.05). The quality of life of the patients with OS was worse in the dimensions of psychological health (47.9), vitality (47.1) and mental component score (32.8)than those in without OS group (57.8,57.0,37.0, respectively,P＜0.05).Conclusions The psycho-mental factors are associated with overlapping symptoms in patients with FD,which suggests that abnormal psycho-mental factors may be involved in the mechanisms underlying overlapping gastrointestinal symptoms in FD.

Objective To explore whether the pathophysiological mechanisms are same or not in different subtypes of functional dyspepsia (FD) patients. Methods Severity of symptoms and (44.2± 14. 6) years. Multi-gastrointestinal functions were also tested. Results No statistical difference was found among epigastric pain syndrome (EPS), postprandial distress syndrome (PDS) and mixed type in the data of gastric emptying function, gastric myoelectrical activity, autonomic nerve function,simultaneous introgastric pressure and water loading test, and psychological status assessment as well (P＞0.05). There was a positive linear correlation between postprandial fullness and half gastric emptying time (correlation coefficient=11.5, P= 0. 043). Early satiation was negatively related to maximal water intaking volume (correlation coefficient=-6. 8, P=0. 033). Conclusions In this study, it suggested that the FD patients with different pathophysiologic mechanisms cannot be distinguished efficiently according to Rome Ⅲ criteria, and then be treated in a well-targeted manner.

Objective To investigate the diagnosis value of immunophenotype and karyotypes in newly diagnosed chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).Methods To retrospect the flow cytometry (FCM) immunophenotype and karyotypes characteristics in newly diagnosed 70 CLL cases.Results In all cases,the positive rates of CD19,CD20,CD5,CD23,CD22 were 100 ％,88.5 ％ (54/61),77.1％ (54/70),67.6 ％ (23/34)and 51.9 ％ (27/52),respectively.And 6 were misdiagnosed,2 was CD+5CD+19(+),but CD20,CD22 were strongly positive,final diagnosed as mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) by FISH t(11;14) examination and CyclinDl; CD+5CD+19(-) CLL were 16 cases (22.9 ％),but 4 were misdiagnosed,the misdiagnosis rate was 25 ％,significantly higher than that of CD+5CD+19(-) CLL (P =0.030).59 cases were examined by conventional cytogcnetic (CC),and 13 cases were with abnormal karyotypes,positive rate was 22.0 ％,with complex karyotypes in 5 cases (8.5 ％); 10 cases combined with FISH abnormalities karyotype examination rate was 60 ％.Conclusion Typical CLL immunophenotypic characteristics were CD5,CD19,CD23 co-expression,and CD－5 CLL with higher misdiagnosis rate,combined with CD20 (,) CD22 expression and karyotype analysis helps to CLL and other B lymphoid proliferative diseases (B-LPD) identification.Conventional cytogenetic detection combined with FISH scan can improve the recognition ability of abnormal chromosome.

BACKGROUND:Considering the risk of lack of bone in revision and the bone coverage of component,it is advisable to use bone grafting to increase bone stock in patients with adult Crowe type Ⅲ developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) in the first total hip arthroplasty (THA).OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effectiveness of impaction bone grafting with morselized bone and bone paste for acetabular defects of adult Crowe type Ⅲ DDH in THA.METHODS:Forty cases (45 hips) of Crowe type Ⅲ DDH were enrolled,including 8 males and 32 females,aged 31-68 years.All the components were reconstructed at the anatomic acetabulum combined with deepening acetabulum and putting the centre of rotation medially and distally during THA procedures.The patients were all followed up and evaluated with Harris score,limp length,displacement of the centre of rotation,cup coverage,and postoperative complications.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The average follow-up was 32.7 months.Acetabular rotation centers of all the cases were recovered (near) to normal.The incisions healed by first intention and there was no complication such as infection,dislocation,prosthesis loosening.The acetabular cup prosthesis did not displace and was covered well by bone at the last follow-up,the grafted bone particles got radiological osseointegration and the bone sclerosis zone disappeared.No radiolucent lines and screw fracture were detected.The Harris scores of affected hips at the last follow-up were significantly higher than those before surgery(P=0).The average leg length was increased (2.31 ±0.18) cm.The mean cup coverage was 78.1％.The postoperative horizontal and vertical distance of the hip center were shorter than those before surgery (P=0).Reconstructing the acetabulum with autogenous morselized bone graft impaction can effectively restore the acetabular coverage,maintain the stability of acetabular cup and provide better relative bone stock in THA for Crowe type Ⅲ DDH in adult,and moreover,the short-term effect is satisfactory.

AIM: To study the expression of c-jun in brain stem following moderate lateral fluid percussion brain injury in rats, and to observe the temporal patterns of its expressions following percussion.METHODS: Male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into normal control, sham operation control and injury groups. The rats of injury group subjected to moderate lateral fluid percussion injury (0.2 mPa), and then were subdivided into 5 min, 15 min, 30 min, 1 h, 2 h, 4 h, 8 h and 12 h groups according to the time elapsed after injury. The expression of c-jun was studied by immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization. RESULTS: After percussion for 15 min, Jun positive neurons increased in brain stem progressively, and peaked at 12h. At 5min after percussion, the induction of c-jun mRNA was increased, and remained elevated up to 1h-2h after brain injury. CONCLUSION: The induction and expression of the c-jun in brain stem after fluid percussion brain injury were increased rapidly and lasted for a long time.
