1.Biological targeted treatment of refractory / relapsed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma
Journal of Leukemia & Lymphoma 2016;25(5):317-320
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.Rituximab in combination with chemotherapy had improved the outcomes,however,a substantial proportion of these patients transfer into refractory or eventually relapsed lymphoma after using R-CHOP as a front-line treatment regimen with poor prognosis.With the research development on DLBCL and its related gene,it is confirmed that gene biological targeted therapy can improve the prognosis of patients with refractory /relapsed DLBCL (RR-DLBCL).Recently,some new targeted therapies become research hotspots.This review will focus on recent development and future direction of biological targeted treatment in RR-DLBCL.
2.Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin and acute kidney injury in children
International Journal of Pediatrics 2015;42(5):495-498
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is the most common and serious complication in the intensive care unit.The mortality of AKI is still as high as 60% in critically ill children because of lack sensitive and special early predictive biomarker.Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin is one of the most promising early diagnose and predict biomarkers for AKI,produced and secreted by kidney tubule cells at low levels,but increasing dramatically in the urine and serum after ischemic, sepsis, or nephrotoxic injury of the kidneys.This review is to summarize the role of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin as an early biomarker of AKI with different clinical settings in children.

7.The effects of the location of acute anterior cruciate ligament rupture on areas of bone bruises
Chinese Journal of Orthopaedics 2021;41(2):103-108
Objective:To investigate the relationship between the location of anterior cruciate ligament rupture (ACL) and the areas of bone bruises in patients with an acute ACL injury.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on MRI of patients with ACL injuries from January to June 2019. According to the location of the ACL rupture on the distal to proximal length, the patients were divided into 5 groups, namely Type I, >90%; Type II, 75%-90%; Type III, 25%-75%; Type IV, 10%-25%, Type V, <10%. Gender, weight, body mass index, depth of lateral femoral condyle notch, and medial meniscus injury were compared among the five groups. The sagittal plane images of ePDWSPIRCLEAR sequence were selected to define the layer with the largest contusion areas of femur and tibia respectively. The maximum bone contusion areas of these two layers was measured using Image J 1.52t software.Results:Among the 63 cases of acute ACL injury, three cases (4.8%) were with type I tear, 14 cases (22.2%) with type II tear, 40 cases (63.5%) with type III tear, 2 cases (3.2%) with type IV tear, and 4 cases (6.3%) with Type V tear. There was no contusion of lateral femoral condyle or lateral tibial plateau bone in type I and type IV. The lateral femoral condyle bone contusion areas was 0 (0, 64.12) mm 2 in type II, 182.34 (86.58, 334.38) mm 2 in Type III, 38.64(0, 193.36) mm 2 in Type V with statistically significant difference ( H=21.665, P=0.000). The largest areas of bone contusion in the lateral tibial plateau was 76.78(28.25, 205.57) mm 2 in type II, 120.93(51.78, 239.37) mm 2 in Type III, 190.51(80.86, 238.75) mm 2 in Type V with statistically significant difference ( H=11.939, P=0.018). The maximum bone contused areas of the lateral tibial plateau in the medial meniscus injury group was 48.0(0, 105.97) mm 2, which was smaller than that in the non-injury group 185.67(54.36, 257.41) mm 2 ( H=8.848, P=0.003). The maximum bone contusion areas of the lateral femoral condyle in the injured group was 162.19(63.03, 301.33) mm 2, which was greater than 0(0, 103.37) mm 2 in the uninjured group ( H=11.554, P=0.001). Conclusion:ACL rupture often occurs in the middle segment. The middle segment ACL fracture combined with lateral meniscus injury had with the highest probability and with the largest area of bone contusion of lateral femoral condyle. The fracture of the ACL at the farthest terminal has the largest bone contusion areas of the lateral tibial plateau and with the lowest probability of combined injury of the medial meniscus.

Bovine Lactoferricin is a fragment of polypeptide which derives from N-terminal of bovine lactoferrin when it is digested by pepsin in acid condition. It has many biological functions. This study was designed to research the antibiosis spectrum of LfcinB and the key functional active site of the LfcinB by amino acid substitution and peptide sequence modification. Antimicrobial spectrum of the artificial synthesized LfcinB was determined by agar-well diffusion method. The antibacterial active sites were confirmed by minimal inhibitory concentration assays. After the Cysteine at the third site and the tryptophan at the eighth site of LfcinB were substituted by alanine, or two cysteine of LfcinB were respectively, the minimal inhibitory concentration of the three artificially modified LfcinBs was assayed. Results showed that LfcinB had a broad-spectrum of antibiosis, it could restrain various bacterials, such as Gram-positive bacteria, Gram-negative bacteria, fungus and mycetes. LfcinB was stable to heat and pH, it could not be inactivated by many protease. The tryptophan at the eighth site and the intramolecular disulfide bond formed between two cysteins played a key role for antibiosis, as the functional active sites of LfcinB.
9.Mechanisms of secondary resistance to imatinib in gastrointestinal stromal tumors
Journal of International Oncology 2010;37(12):936-939
Imatinib is an effective tyrosine kinase inhibitor, used in the treatment of advanced or inoperable gastrointestinal stromal tumors. Despite its efficacy, resistance is often developed among a portion of patients. Resistance to imatinib can be divided into primary and secondary resistance, with the latter becoming the focus of many recent researches. Research on the mechanisms of secondary resistance may lead to the identification of novel therapeutic strategies.
10.The influence of inspired oxygen fraction for the diagnosis of acute respiratory distress syndrome
Chinese Journal of Emergency Medicine 2011;20(4):371-375
Objective To investigate the influence of inspired oxygen fraction (FiO2) on the ratio of PaO2/FiO2(P/F) during the implementation of lung protective ventilation strategy in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS) in order to unravel its clinical significance. Method This was a prospective study of 16 selected patients with ARDS treated with mechanical ventilation ( MV ) to get ratio of P/F in range of 100 to 200 by PEEP≥5 cmH2O and high inspired oxygen. After lung recruitment maneuvers by BiPAP with high pressure (PH) of 40 cmH2O for40 s, the MV was maintained the basic requirement for stabilizing the patients for 30 minutes. A series of FiO2 were set at fractions of 0.5,0.6,0.7,0.8,0.9 and 1in random sequence, and the changes of respiratory mechanics, blood gas and hemodynamics under the different concentrations of FiO2 were analyzed by using SPSS version 13.0 software. Results ( 1 ) The ratio of P/F increased as FiO2 increased, and it's significant as FiO2 increased to 0.7 or above. As the fractions of FiO2 were set at 0.5 and 1. O, the ratios of P/F changed in 24.70% ± 23.36% respectively. ( 2 ) Of them,6 patients ( 37.5% ) treated with FiO2 set at 0.5 had the ratio of P/F < 200, and the fraction of FiO2 was increased to 1.0, the P/F > 200. (3) FiO2 and Qs/Qt were negatively correlated ( r = - 0.390, P = O. 027 ),the higher inspired oxygen fraction, the lower shunt. When the fractions of FiO2 were set at 0.5 and 1.0 ,there was a positive correlation between △Qs/Qt and △P/F( r = 0.82, P = 0.005 ). Conclusions The inspired oxygen fraction affects the ratio of P/F, which may be resulted from shunt and it may influence the diagnosis of ARDS.
